WILli UAERISOy DO IT t
The republican party ,!or years,haa main
tained stoutly that, par excellence it U the
friend of the nacro. It claims to have been
the exclusive Instrument In breaking the
hackle of the colored man and setting him
free. It claims to have waged the war that
carried the colored race from slavery to
freedom. It claims on all occasions that It
with great andjpatrle-tlc disinterestedness
lifted up the negro from a state of degrad
ed servitude to the plane of political equal
ity with the whites. This party has, by Its
conduct,lald claim to the negro vote because
of the great obligation that race owes to It
for doing this great, good thing for it. No
mission or purpose of the republican party
has been more strongly asserted than the
one of establishing the perfect political
equality of the negro with the while race.
But has that party been faithful to the
pledges which it has made to the negroes
In consideration of the votes which that
race gives the republican party ? The negro
Is keenly alive to the fact that this pretend
ed friend has not kept these pledges. Where
has it elected a negro to office and thu(
shown its sincerity In promoting hi politi
cal equality. Neither time nor place can
be pointed out But on the other hand
scores of opportunities where this might
have been done have been willfully neglect
ed, aye, worse than neglected,opportunlties
that the party has openly refused to em
brace. Why this course on the part of re
publicans i Simply, because all these pro
fessions of Interest In the equality of the
negro with the white race have been and
are now Insincere. The republicans knew
the negroes of the South would vote the
republican ticket, and they were perfectly
willing that they should hold the fflces in
the South and dominate over the whites
there, but they knew their people in the
North was too Insincere to permit colored
men to rule over the North, hence that
party has uniformly refused to elect ne
groes to office. But the time has now ar
rived when the republican party can no
longer put off a proper recognition of the
services which the negro has rendered that
party. Nothing short of a place In the
cabinet would be a proper recognition.
Will Harrison dolt? Will he place some
ntelllgent negro In the cabinet ? We fr
did that race frtjndke among republicans i
so strong that he will not dare to do it. fje
will scarcely be able to overcome this race
prejudice sufficiently to enable him to do
as much for the negro as President Cleve
land has done. And this predicament of
Harrison's Is directly traceable to the al
most universal insincerity of republicans
with regard to political equality .for the ne
gro. The republicans would have political
equality between the whites and blacks of
the South,but never between the two races
in the North. This accounts for the fact
that so many intelligent negroes, both In
the North and la the South,are leaving the
republican party.and if, during the term of
Harrison, there Is no change In this matter,
then the negro will desert that party by
the hundreds and thousands.
The regular mesting'of the Union on Tues
day last was one of anusnal interest, twenty
five members being present A responsive
Bible resdinj was conducted by Mrs. Over
man, which was helpful to every one present.
The executive committee reported that the
payment due on the hall had been discharg
ed, and a number of small bills settled, leav
ing tho financial affairs of the Union in good
shape exoeptiug the amount still unpaid
upon tha hall. After the transaction of some
other business, Mrs. Townsood, resigned her
position as Tresident of the Union, she spoke
of the deep regret she felt in severing her
connection with the Union, to which she wss
so warmly attached, she thanked the mem
bers for the universal kindness and eonrtesy
shown ber, and made some valuab!e sugges
tions as to future work. 1 ler resignation was
accepted and the following preamble and
resolution passed, unanimously i
We, aa momber of the Women's Chris
tian Temperance Union of Albany, Oregon,
deeply regret that oircumstancea have made
it necessary for Mrt. Townsend to resign her
office as l'retidont of our Union, and take up
her residonce in another city, we therefore,
tier this resolution in love and approval of
the consecrated woman w ho has servvd us ss
1'resideut for the past 7 year.
JleMolvtd, That we docply regret the Ions
of our l'resideot, that our grateful thanks
are due her for the successful mansKuient of
all the affairs of our Union, recognising that
to her nntiring sal we owe the place we have
won among the Unions of the State, as the
banner Union. We hereby tender her our
most earnest wishes for prosperity, happiness
and usefulness in the new home to which
she goes, and committing her to the eare of
the Master whom she so conscientiously
aerveaTwe leave her in Uia hands.
A ballot wss then taken for a new Presi
dent, which resulted in the choice of Mrs.
St. John, who is in every way worthy to fill
the chair of her predecessor. Mrs. Towhssnd
baa served tbe Union, as President for al.
most seven years, and who ahall say ber ad
ministration has not been a soocesitfut one.
We feel in tranferini( this opiiht woman to
Portland that ber lonuenco may be fU eve
At i ! 1 .... I
in maitin-cnrteti cm, anu we resign n
with that hope.

Cleveland's plurality over HarrIson,c.8,i85
A Washington telegram says that the
Senate Finance committee will give a hear
Ing to the manufacturers of guns and cut
lery before passing finally upon that clause
of the tariff which relates to their interests
Upon the surface of things It would appear
that these people had had too much hearing
already, for the Senate bill increases the
duties on their products to an extent quite
unparalleled In. the present tariff schedules
The duty on the cheapest breech-loading
guns, now 35 per cent., i increased by the
senate bill to 291 per cent ; on the next
grade to 182 per cent ; on 'the next to 150
per cent but on the highest grade, those
used by rich people, the duty remains un
changed or is slightly reduced. On cheap
cutlery the bill Is equally audaclous.as the
following table wl I show :
Present Proposed
duty. duty
table knives ....
Costing 16 cents per dozen
Costing 30 cents per dozen .-. . .
( Pocket knives ....
Costing 18 cents per dozen. . . .
Costing 31 cents per dozen. . . .
Costing 48 cents per dozen . . . .
Costing 80 cents per dozen....
Costing 100 cents per dozen....
Here again the discrimination is against
the poos. Table knives costing $8 per
dozen are now taxed 35 per cent The-bill
raises the duty only to $ per cent. The
same discrimination is made in respect of
pocket knives ; the duly on four-blade
knives, costing $7.20 per dozen, which is
now 50 per cent, is raised only to 53 per
cent. It Is to be hoped that the proposed
rehearing before the committee will lye
public.
