Tub Omaha woman who entered her infant, in the baby show and walkcdiofl* and deserted it because it failed to cap ture the prize, exhibited what the Inter- Ocean regardti as a “high-water mark” of maternal pride. Tub condemned Chicago anarchists are reported as still "very delimit.” It. is n defiance which may he pityingly al lowed them. They have little time left in which to exercise it. Tub Knights of Labor convention at Richmond is through with its credential contests, and tho “color line” contest is also happily allayed. Now if they can got through their work quickly and wisely it will be well for them and for the country. Njsw IIampsiiiiik will have a new sen ator to choose when her legislature meets in January. Senator I’ike, deceased, was a very fair republican, though not a great one. Mr. lilaine will have a hand in the choice of his successor. Hum. progress toward honest revenue reform has been greater in the last six months than in the twenty years pre ceding. The farmers, the wage-workers, the merchants, even the manufacturers themselves, are learning the atrocious iniquity of maintaining a war tarrir in time of peace. Ali, industrial and trade pursuits were •suddenly cheeked in the Hpring and many of them seriously crippled for sev eral months hv the Martin Irons’ strikes. Trade has since then recovered, and there is fair promise now of active and prosperous fall business, is this to lie checked up by a new series of strikes? If there was a plot to destroy American industries, no surer plan to elfect that oiiject could he adopted than by these frequently recurring, strikes when trade promises to lie brisk. As if to exhibit the audacity of strikes, there is one in the American rubber fac tory at Cambridge, near Boston, which was caused by a “spat” between two of the female employes. The row between the girls having led to a wider disturbance they were both dismissed by a sub-fore man, whereupon the hands struck, de manding the reinstatement of the quar relsome girls and the removal of the sub-foreman to another department. Pos sibly the more there is of this now the less room there will he for strikes here after. UKTTINd AKTKK A “I'HKKITIKK.” The colored congregations in Eufaula have a summary way of dealing with their ministers who insult them from the pulpit. Two or three days ago a delega tion of colored Baptist brethren marched into tho ollico of the Eufaula Times. They had a colored preacher named Hicks in charge. They told the editor that they were going to make Hicks pub lish a card and they did. Here it is: To Tit it Public.— On Sunday last at 3 p. m. I preqphed nt the court house by appointment of tho Eufuula Baptist Association then in session in this city. 1 am charged with having said, iu the sermon, that “all the praying which the colored race have done since emancipation was just enough to sink them to hell.” 1 desire now to say that I am not conscious of having uttered jsuon a sentiment; but, if l did, I repudiate it. 1 have too high an opinion of the piety and char acter of my race to make any remark which will, in any respect, be to its injury. 1 J. P. Hicks. Kuftiula, Ala.. Oct. 11, 1886. 11‘the Bov. 1 licks “preeehed” that “all the praying which the colored race have done since emancipation” was just enough to take them to the old Hurry, he ought to have stuck to it, but he ought to have given the amount required to take them elsewhere. Evidently the brethren bull-dozed the Rev. Hicks into a retraction. Preachers ought to be paid by the government, so that they could say what they think to tlieir congrega tions. The Rev. Hicks ought to go north and get him a white congregation. When n colored preacher abuses his congrega tion they harness him and make him take it all back. But when a white preacher abases and billingsgates his con gregation, they pat him on the back and call him a boss sensationalist and raise his salary. We would counsel the Rev. Hicks to learn what he is going to "preech” by heart, before he unloads on another Eufaula congregation. Cards of apology and retraction are ugly things emanating from anybody,but especially from a “preecher” like the Rev. Hicks. : AFRICANS AMI ASIATICS AS (TTIZFNS. To he i^i American citizen is to he in- vexted with great and extraordinary ! privileges. It 1h to become not only the ; object of governmental protection, hut *o ho indued with the right to an equal share in tho exercise of governmental power. It is to have the right to claim not only the whole strength of the government for the protection of person and property, hut to have equally with every other citizen a voice in the making of the laws and tho selection ofitsolli- cers. Every citizen is intrusted, there fore, with tlie keeping not only of his own political and civil interests, hut with the civil rights, privileges and in terests of every other citizen. Privileges of citizenship, therefore, are coupled with corresponding responsibili ties and burdens. To claim these privi leges hence, is to assume an equal share in the responsibilities and burdens of society, To ignore these responsibilities and shirk the burdens, ought always to work a forfeiture of the privileges of cit izenship. If good government is a boon alike to all, then its mainteinance im poses equal solicitude. But how do we (hid these matters to he regarded by the Africans and Asiatics whose lot has been cast on American soil? While they are clamorous for all the privileges of citizenship, they are yet wholly insensible to its responsibilities. At first this may seem a sweeping charge, hut how stands the facts upon dose scru tiny? Attend the criminal courts, and it will there he seen that nine-tenths of the criminals are negroes. Ordinarily this would argue nothing more than that as a race they are more depraved than tho whites. But watch the proceedings, and it will be seen that in nine eases out of ten, the negro on trial, especially if tho object of his offending was against the- person ' or property of a white man, as is generally the ease, then no matter how or in what degree he has olfended, lie will have the unstinted and undiscriminating sympathy of the entire negro race. They will yearn for his acquittal, no matter what may be the evidences of his guilt, and if acquitted they rejoice in it, not as showing the man’s innocence, but as a victory gained by one of their race over law and order. As for the actual guilt or innocence of the accused they care ab solutely nothing. If anything, the more manifest the man’s guilt, the more intense becomes their interest in Iuh behalf. And when sentenced, how ever guilty, he is regarded as a martyr. Courts, jails and officers of the law are all regarded as instituted and maintain ed for the especial discomfort and perse-' cation of the negro race. The burden and responsibility of maintaining law and order is cast entirely upon the white man, yet equally with them they claim equal privileges and distribution in gov ernment affairs. Another tiling is noticeable. Negroes do not recognize the obligations they are under, as citizens, to disclose the per petration of a crime by one of their race. They feel that to he none of their busi ness. They regard it as altogether the white man’s business to catch the thief, if he can. They go further—they do all they eau to conceal the theft, and throw every obstacle in the way of its discovery, feeling that every successful theft committed by one of their race is to much made out of the white man. lienee, in communities where a large proportion of the popula tion are negroes, and where the chances to conceal for each other are good, it is exceedingly difficult to ferret out tile perpetrator of a crime. Whenever they do make disclosures of theft or kindred offenses it is usually after the goods stolen have been disposed of and because of some personal grudge against the of fender. and not from any motives of pub lie good. It is hard upon the white nuin, that he should have to shoulder the entire burden and responsibility of ma'ntqin- ing law and order and then he allowed to have no greater share in the privileges ol'society than do those who cast them selves squarely against law and order. These trails of character, which unfit the negro race, seem to attach to the Chinese also, for our exchanges f:o:u the west const lately, give accounts of the actings and doings of the people in that part of San Francisco called China Town. They tell how China Town is tilled with junk shops where stolen goods are bought and harbored and how the place supports great numbers of thieves who prowl about in droves at night, hunting for open windows, and how expert the Chinaman has become in using an extension pole with a hook on one end with which ho robs beds of their covering, even when persons are sleeping upon them, and how nearly im possible it is to catch up with the perpe trators because of the aid, comfort and support they receive from the entire Chinese population. Y#t there are those, doubtless, who in the face of all these facts, would insist on investing these predatory thieves with the entire privi leges of American citizenship. These night-prowling, predatory propensities, seem to belong alone to the Africans and Asiatics. Few of the Europeans, whether of Scotch, Irish, English, Spanish, Sweeds or Germans, ever manifest any such propensities, but all of these, as a people, when they seek homes in Ameri ca and become residents of this republic, assume their share of the burdens of maintaining law and order. Chicago, it is true, has developed some hot-headed, bloodthirsty anarchists, but they are not races. They are individuals of all races and nationalities, and the trouble they give is political and hold, and in time will correct itself, for tho children of anarchists will ho American horn ami will become imbued with the true principles of American government. These things are said, not for the pur pose of casting odium upon any race, but our duty as journalists is to represent matters as they are, and to use what in fluence we have to correct existing evil-. Now if tlie ministers of the negro race would point out to their people their de ficiencies as citizens, and use their in fluence to correct the evils of which we complain, they would greatly benefit their people. In spite of the evils of which we have spoken, however, the ne gro has many redeemable qualities and is permanently in our midst, and it be hooves us to do what can he done to make him recognize his responsibilities as a citizen. The duty of the govern ment, however, is to protect all within her dominions and on her soil in their rights of person and property, whether citizens or foreigners.* SPRINGER OPERA HOUSE.
