C P Johnson, Darien, Ga. ■BaFuRD AV' MA RCH * 5,” 1887 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. f•. Gov. Foraker says “Ohio is solid for ii a. John Sherman I >r presi dent.” Cadkt Whitaker is now a mem ber of a prominent Law firm in Charleston, 8. C. The Ohio Legislature has repeal ed law providing sepcra»e schools for colored Children. The s'atue of President Garfield to be erected in the city of Wash ington, will be unveiled on May 12th. The Tribune will still demand fair play for colored men, whether it mak'/af* tftw afternoon paper called tlw ’Evening Call inad or not. >' The Macon Telegraph says of President Cleveland, “We love him for the vetoes he has made, but the vetoes wont help reelect him.” Nathaniel Brady was confirmed as Postmaster of Beaufort, S. C., on Wednesday last, in place of Hon. Philip Ezekeil, who had filled th h position acceptably for the past 18 ■ years, and thus the w >rk ol'C-i-v i I r H-e-r-v-i-c-e R-e-i-o-r-m goes bravely on The Supreme Court has sustain ed the decision of the City Court of Atlanta, against Hon. W, A. Pled ger for criminal libel. Th* sen tence is MOO, or 12 months. President Cleveland was born March 18th 1837. Therefore in a few days he will celebrate th* 50th anniversary of his advent into the country. A tornado struck Eatonton, Ga., last Saturday afternoon about 5 o’clock doing considerable damage, three colored men one named Wm. Marshall was killed. Hon. John. Sherman anticipates making a visit south. We are pleased to learn it and he will be greeted with pleasure by all good thinking men of the country, irrespective of party or sectional feeling. Mrs Roxalana Druse was hanged at Herkhimer, N. Y. on Monday last, for the brutal murder of her husband a few years ago. The crime was a terrible one, and she paid the well deserved penalty of the law. The Little Rock Sun of Febru ary 26, appropriated as its own, our article on the Literary Convention, called by Bishop Turner, to meet in in Nashville. Tenn., on Marsh 23, 1887. By (be waj, who runs the Sun anyhow. Let us know who you are brethren. O’Neil, one <>f the Boodle Aider men of New Yoik city, been denied the only hope ol escape and no doubt, ere this, is coiifi ed in Sing Sing prison, where he will have ample time to reflect over the evil of his w iyt and we hope he will come out a better, if not wiser m > . The People’s Witiiesy, Wilming ton, (Del.,) and the Boston Advo cate. seems to attempt to “pull the wool over each other eves” in the Matthew* rij ction confii< t. We sympathy. with our friends in their mLutiderstai do g» but it is about time to pull the < hetnut bell. Cardinal .Jao bini, Secret ry t<> His Holine-s P pe Leo XIH, died it Rome. Itay, <n Sonrdav last. The Cardinal Was an able and t ffi cient churchman, being about 55 years of age and ns Secretary he has served about 7 years being appointed in 1880. He was very wealthy, also a very liberal m in in his views, and his death will he a great loss to the Catholic chu ch. It appeals from the New York 'Tribune tbit William E. English, Ex-Cong-csstnau and a son of the former candidate lor Vice Prrsidt-nt on the democratic ticket, has been going a*tiav and taking undue liber ties wi'h one M s. Lu y A. Case and she has begun proceedings against him for $25,000 damages Yi ung men should take the advice of the venerable David Cro< ket ‘"Be sure your are right and then go ahead.” A dispatch from Columbia, 8. C. states that a body of men and women consisting of six white and two 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 the 24th. We regmt to see suck brutal feeling exhibited in any city ol the South. A similar class ot “Evangelists'’ visited ‘his city a month ago, and were treated re apeci fully by all classes. 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. Lord Stanford, who succeeded to the earldom a few years ago, on the death ot the iate Loid Stanfo d and Wai rington, has long been a resident of South Africa. He in habits a wigwam of corrugated iron at Wyi.dberg and has m stone built bungalow on the seashore at Muzenbergy He niariied a black 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. —Gate City Press. 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.
