WHERE WE STAND.
It lk eme that our recent a r ticl««
Bin defence of a fair square equal
s chance for colored men in all Labor
EOrganizationß without regard to the
I s name or designation of such bodies
| cannot be understood by our broth-
Ijer Editor of the Augusta Sentinel.
||Our esteemed contemporary evi
tidently has not followed up our
» articles on this all absorbing qut-B
--c lion. We state now in brief :
We are the friend of the work-
Singtnen and will continue always to
flapeak in their interest whether they
11 belong to any organization or not.
H We believe that labor organizations
Jj properly managed are benificial tn
sits members.
We believe that the principles of
fi the Knights of Labor as defined by
I , Mr. Powderly knows no destinc
k tion on account ot color, and as such
Bit should be encouraged. But the
fflorgan of the Knights ol Labor in
wthis city, cowardly forsakes the
fl principles of the Older, and de
!1 mauds the elevation of white men
it at the expense of colored men;
| indeed it commended the decision
of the Central Railroad manage'
ment to employ none but white
• men.
Does friend Wright endorse the
•1 position taken against colored men
| j*y the Knights’organ in this city?
WILL~NOTBE IN COURT
I The Baptist brethren ot Georgia
will no doubt be glad to learn that
the tight between Revs. W. J,
I White »nd E. K. Love, is aoout to
.be arbitrated without resort to the
| Courts of Law. The two last shots
1 have teen tired it’s to be hoped one
I.by the Harmony Baptist church,
througu the Georgia Baptist, the
other by Rev. Love through the
Augusta bentmvl, in the last issue
of which p per he indicates that
the matter so far as the Courts are
concerned is dropped. We in
I common with the Baptist family ol
Georgia rejoice that the Courts will
not have an opportunity of settling
matters of ttie church that can be
probably settled without its
intervention.

colored who were styling them
selves as “Holy Evangelists,” were
assailed bv a body of 100 men to be
tarred and feathered in that city on

James M. ’l’rotter. of Boston,
M ii" , who was appointed by Pres
ide it Ch vt land, as Recorder of
Deed*, of the District of Co utnbia,
in ttie place of J. C. Mat hews, re
jected, was also rejected by the
Senate Committee, on Wednesday
last. The seeming cause tor rejec
tions ot the sect ral appointees by
the Senate are, that they are not
residents of the District and tile
work of the office being wholly
local, the appointee shoald be from
that district. There can be no
other hypothesis that can be
brought to bear on these rejections
but simply that.

built bungalow on the seashore at

wife and has by her a colored
daughter, Lady Mary Gray, who,
when she arrives at the age of dis
cretion, will be no doubt, an unique
if not welcome addition tc the ranks
of the uppi r ten thousand” at home.
In the event that his lordship will
have a son by the Hottentot count
esa it would introduce in the upper
house of the English Parliament an
African lord, since the title would
come to him by hereditary decent.

Ex-Gov. Hoadly, of Ohio, on his
departure from the State to take up
his residence in New York, reads
the democratic party a lesson that
► hould long be lemeubered by its
friends and leaders. He reminds
them in no untruthful Bound, of the
necessity of a purification of the
ballot in that State among his party
especially Hamilton, County.
When it comes to pass that an Ex
Governor of a State ryfLcts upon
his p irty’s use of the ballot, as Gov.
Hoadly the democracy of tint
State did, no wonder he desiiasto
eleminate himself from within such
bonds.
