A MOfrKL COLORED MAN.
Rev. David Kelly, a colored man who
died in Pittsburg several days ago, was a
remarkable man in many respects, llis
career reflects honor on his race in the
south, and indeed upon the human race
in general. lie was a colored man of
unusual ability, and this ability was tem
pered by a consecration to the cause of
religion such as few men have possessed.
He organized the Liberian Enterprise
Society in 1861, which made the pioneer
settlement in Liberia. He remained in
Africa over twenty-seven years, discov
ering some rich diamond and iron ore
mines, and it was mainly owing to his
labors that Liberia became a republic.
He was repeatedly asked to become pres
ident, but would not consent to accept
any higher oflice than representative of
the county of Montserado. He resigned
this oflice after two years and devoted
himself wholly to religious work. A
little over three years ago Mr. Kelly and
hie wife returned to America.
IT WAN EOT THE TAIUKK.
Some of the democratic newspapers in
this state as well as elsewhere affect to
believe that the losses oif democratic con
gressmen is attributable to the agitation
of the tariff question. This is the merest
bosh. Our cotemporaries Heem to have
forgotten that of the thirty-five members
who ran off after Randall in his crusade
against tariff reform twenty-five of them
were defeated in nominating conven
tions. Then wuh the time for the ap
proval or disapproval oft heir acts in con
gress, and they were defeated.
Tho truth of the matter is that the
course pursued by Mr. Cleveland lias
been tho greatest influence towards cre
ating the apathy that exists among the
democrats. In this opinion we are sus
tained by the New York World" that has
always heartily sustained the adminis
tration. It says:
“The elections contribute some lessons
from which the president may, if he will,
learn wisdom. For nearly two years he
has conducted his adrni istration with a
view to strengthening himself among the
republicans. Ilis civil service policy has
been shaped more with the idea of molli
fying republicans than of satisfying dem
ocrats. His financial policy has been a
continuation of that of the republicans
and adapted to please the “business n.en”
of Wall street. What has been the result?
In the most important municipal elec
tion ever held in this city, in
which party politics was. in no way in
volved, the republican managers refused
to accept a candidate whose name is a
synonym for business integrity and dis
interested public service, and thrust for
ward an inexperienced youth whosechief
claim to support was the party label
which he wore. And this in the face of
what they recognized as a menace to the
peace and prosperity of the city, and of
their own repeated protestations that
politics should not enter into the local
elections. In other words, the repub
licans, with their mugwump con
tingent represented by the able and
astute Times, will take all they can get
from a democratic administration and
give nothing iq return. If they will
stick to their party fetich in a city elec
tion wherein only public and business
questions are involved, what can be ex
pected of them when the stake, to their
mind, is the spoils of the nution ?
“The second lesson is >n the George
movement. By himself cutting the liga
tures of party fealty and showing
himself independent alike of the leaders,'
the voters and the principles of the de
mocracy, the president lias Invited the
breaking of party ties by others--. Hence
a great bolt like that of the democratic
voters to George is not strange.
“The third lesson may be read in the
loss of several congressmen to the party,
and of many more to the administration.
In the president’s own district no demo
crat would stand, except one who pro
claimed his hostility to the administra
tion. In this city and Brooklyn nearly
all the members-elect are either open or
well-understood opponents of the presi
dent. The plain indication of these facts
is that the personal policy of conducting
an administration i.s not a success. It.
weakens the president with his own
party without strengthening him with
the republicans.”
A I0KF. ON TIIK LONDON TIMES.
The editor of the Loijdon' Times says :
“ So far as the interest of pur readers is
concerned we could easilyMispense with
evftry word of the news we get from
America except the market reports.”
The statement is doubtless true, and was
intended as a slur upon America. But
after all isn’t the London Times’ state
ment, which we admit to be a fact, a
boomerang? Docs it not casta slur on
< ireat Britain instead of America?
Why is it that no intei'Clt :js taken in
American news by the people of the
British isles? Manifestly because they
are uninformed in regard to the conti
nent that is now attracting more
attention than nnv other on the globe.
This fact is a reflection upon the intelli
gence of tlie British masses rather
than on America. If the people of Eng
land and Scotland,especially, would learn
more about the sweet fields beyond the
swelling flood, they would take more in
terest in what is transpiring there.
We notTmly admit the statement of
the London Times, but we go further
and declare that the press of America is
compelled to have the news from Great
Britain. We are compelled to have it,
because hundreds of thousands of good
people from those islands who were tired
of worn out lands, and furnace
smoke and davkenened mines,
and oppressive laws and a sneering,
worm-eaten so-called nobility, have Veil
there and come here to live in a country
that has a future instead of past. If a
man is born on a rock he will love it for
ever. And so these people demand tho
news from “over there.” The American
press has to furnish it. Yes, the London
Times is right. They can do without
our news; but we can’t do without their’s.
Since we have given the reasons for it,
however, it strikes us that the London
Times need not crow about having no
need for American news.
“Liberty or death 1” was a rallying cry
in times that tried men’s souls. Now the
convict who works out on a plantation
under contract, has to be reported dead
to gain his liberty. As this plan does
not allow the murderer to come immedi
ately to the city and murder again, he
prefers to wait for a full pardon.
