On Tuesday April 3d the great
city of Jackson vdle Fla., a city rap
idly becoming the metropolis of the
elected three colored men to
the most important positions in its
municipal government. Hon. Jos

man, City Marshal; and A. R. Jones
member of the Police Board of
Oommissioners, Mr. Lee’s ele< tion
did not result from accident nor on
account of color, lint from a consid

ed fact that be is capable of dis
charging the duties connected with
his judicial office.-- Florida Sentinel
The greatest men who ever lived

[ out live, active enemies to goad
them on and sling t licit energies,
they would doubtless have slept in
oblivion. Indeed all the heroes mid
reformers of ancient and modern

’ doubtless never have been known
l to history without the service ol
[ spiteful enemies to keep them in
the path of duty and lasli them m
to noble deeds of valor. Yes, ene
mies have their uses and wise men
will avail themselves of their bene
fits. We can ill afford to do with
j out a hearty, active enemy. With
| out one it is almost impossible to
t accomplish any good results. And

CONKLING DEAD
OUR RACE HAS LOST A FEAR
LESS CHAMPION.
The electric wires flashed the sad
intelligence of the death of Hon.
Roscoe Conkling on Wednesday
morning last, and his fellow country
men who with some anxiety has
been watching the movement of the
dreadful disease which attacked him
had but little hopes of his recovery.
Mr. Conkling was not an aged
man, it might be said that he arriv
ed at the age in life, that is com
monly called the “zenith of our
manhood.” As a lawyer he won
fame and reputation; as a
politician from his early youth he
identified himself with the party of
freedom. In 1w59l w 59 Mr. Conkling
was elected to Congress, and in
1861 he delivered the ever memor
able speech in whi h he declared
‘‘Slavery an insatiable monster” and
“Iron heeled marble headed oppres
sor”.
Mr. Conkling as a political man
ager, endeared men to him; it was
but to request and hi- frit nds would
follow. The remarkable prudence
and judgment that characterize all
his movements in that ever memor
able convention of 1880, stamp him
is the leader of a great pariv.
Conkling and Blaine both had their
jealousies, and it cm be liiithiiilly
-■id that they could never “ride the
same horse,” but alas! Providence
has divine spheres f»r both, one
has announced himself as retiied
from tne strife of political ambition
the other has gone to rest.
In the death of Mr. Conkling
the colored people has lost a good
friend and the country a loyal
statesman. The writer of this art
icle in privite correspondence with
the honored Senator, knows that
no stone was ever left unturned
that could elevate the condition of
our race, Farewell good friend,
thy works will follow thee
