REGISTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER AT
the Savannah Post office.
- SATURDAY, AUGUST 20 1887.
Our Albany letter arrived too late
for this week’s issue.
—• _* * •
Milledgeville has been having
earthquakes this week, and Athens
not to be outdone had a cyclone on
Wednesday.
ANY legislation, on the social
status of the citizen is unconstitu
tional and calculated only to disturb
the amicable relations between the
races. This is incendiary.
Is it not about time to hear from
the Republican party of Georgi <.
Oh we forgot there are no office
holders of that persuasion now.
'■ ♦ ♦
Glenn of .Whitfield, has succeed
ed by. his viscious and unnecessary
bill in stirring up ill feeling be
tween the “races” in Georgia. This
is not incendiary.
The Morn ing News savs the col
ored papers of Georgia are incendi
arv because they denounce the
Glenn infamy bill, and demand
fair play fir their people.
JS’nt "it. »about time for som<
member of the Georgia Legislature
to offer a Will uiakieg it a penal of
fence for white people and colored
people to be friendly with each
other. This is.not incendiarism.
Gen. W. J. Whipper’s address to
the military at Thunderbolt on last
Monday was a fiiasterpiece of orato
ry and eloquence. His advice to
soldiers to be true to themselves,
and manifest their lovalty to the
State by always being ready to re
spond to her call "in cage of need
was received with the wildest ap
plause.
PENNSYLVANIA IA TIUOTS.
The, Republican State Convention
met aj Harrisburg on Wednesday
last for the purpose of nominating
State officers. The platform
is full of vigor and life and in fell
keeping with the spirit of the grand
old party un all vital questions af
fecting the cause of liberty and
freedom and the welfare oi the Re
public. It favors a tariff lor the
sake of nu’turing American man
ufactures until the resources and
industries of the country furnish its
people with every item of consump
tion they can naturally produce and
for the purpose ot protecting home
labor against foreign labor, as, well
as the products. It demands that
the American workmen be protect
ed f oin the unjust and unequal
. competition of imported contract
and pauper labor.
The National administration is
’ arraigned for general imbecility m
dealing with National questions.
The only energy they have dis
played has been the displacement
lof experienced officers without
Cause, and indirect vioaiation of
j their civil service pledges, and to
I have no principle beyond seeking
.topreserve the solid South.
> The Convention then adopted the
[ following resolution':
The Republic ms oi Pennsylvania
| the native State o Hou. Ja-. G.
I Blaine, will view with high pleasiir •
I'his nomination for thu Pr
i in the campaign of 1888 Accident
I cannot abate the love of h great
I party nor the admiration ot a great
I people for a s ; atesmaii true aiike to
| his convictions and his country.
Resolved, I'hat Ahile we gladly
1 recognize some change tor the bet-
in the sentiment of certain por
[ltions of the
Southern St lies m ref
erence to colored citizens, it would
be conn ary to Republican p.im-,-
ch not to ex ess our detestation
Hud our opp sitmn to, discrimin
ation still practiced because of color
against citizens when traveling on
tlie public highways of certain por
tions of the South, and we earnest
ly appeal to our sister States,
where such wrong exists, and to
the National government, to reme
dy this injustice.
Resolved, That the Republican
party Os Pennsylvania, in conven
tion assembled, extend to Hon.
Gladstone, Hon. Charles
Stewart, Purnell, and their associ
ates, its profound sympathy and
hearty concurrence in their great
and earnest efforts to secure to the
people of Ireland independence and
liberty of action for themselves in
political affairs, and their struggle
to secure free government, and we
bid them a cheerful God speed in
their woik fur humanity.
The African slave trade has
grown to large proportions again
since Wolseley's expedition into the
Soudan in quest of Chinese Gor
don. The followers of the Mahdi
are now having it pretty much they
own Way in hat territory; and as
they find in sbiVe barter a r adv
way to needed wealth, they snap
their fingers at prohibition and
inen-01-war and run their dhows
briskly across the Red Sea to Jed
dah, where good prices and a ready
market are found among subjects ot
the sultan. Slavery are being by
thousands to Khartoun. Young
women and big boys, who can t>e
driven to the coast at a total cost of
$25 a piece, sell readily in tlielaive
Arabian towns for from five to ten
times that amount•
The slave trade is now stimulated
not only by the great profits of the
business, but also by rhe fact that
all trade is contraband. Thr m- i
chants run just as great risk <L tiling
in ostrich feathers ami ivory as the.
do when their trade subjects are
slaves. The vastness of the profits
impels them irresistioly to the hide
on traffic in men. in the treatment
of whom they seem to bn quite ns
heartless as any of their forerunners
in the barb irons business. The siil
luring of the captives are said to
be terrible 1 It takes about* seven
weeks to drive them from Khartoun
to the coast, and one party which
recently left 300 strong only 200
reached the seaside.
Such facts appeal forcibly for,
compassion and call forth incigna
tion. It cannot be possible that
Christian man is less humane now
ihan he was a generation ago; lint
it does seem singular that with the
increase of navigation the Aiez
Canal has br night about, the
slaves should be tripping across the
tied Sea with a boldness and suc
cess ran-lv surpassed in their un
holy annals. Demorest’s Monthly

fllE INTER OCEAN
OF* CHICAGO *
In Circulation and Political Influence 1B th«
Leading Republican Newspaper
IN THE NORTHWEST.
THE INTER OCEAN has from the bejrlnnfng been
the defender of home institutions and Atnerlcan
ideas. It is the advocate of equal rights for all be
fore the law, of protection to American labor, and
of the idea that America Is for Americans-not nec
essarily Americans by birth, buttrue citizens of the
Republic. It believes in the West and Western
men, holds to the idea that the future seat of em
pire will be in the Mississippi Valley, and is bold
and aggressive in its opposition to the unholy alli
ance between the money-changers of New York
City and the States lately in rebellion.
THE INTER OCEAN Is earnestly in favor of the
Republican party because it believes the principles
of that party are correct, and that, honestly car
ried out, they will best protect the rights and ad
vance the interests of the whole people. It is not,
however, a Mind follower, but is always ready to
denounce Republican wrong-doing, either in high
or low places.
THE INTER OCEAffr has always maintained that
the Nation is under an obligation to the soldiers of
the late war, who jeopardized their lives to protect
it from armed treason, which it can never repay,
and, consequently, has advocated the establish
ment of Soldiers’ Homfe and the enactment of
such pension laws as would leave no disabled vet
eran in want.
As n Newspaper THE INTER OCEAN is not ex
celled in the United States. Aside from the service
of the Associated Press, in which it holds a mem
bership, it keeps a la rge body of Special Corre
spondents, both in this country and in the Old
World, and has SPECIAL LEASED TELEGRAPHIC
