TUESDAY, SOT. II. 1884.
TO COLOMBO MBS/
On Sunday tbe Kzcobdeb as
■ored (be colored people tbit they
bad nothing to Tear from tbe sue.
ceil of the Democratic party at
tbe lato election; that there was no
intention to disturb tbe present
friendly relations existing between
black and white, nor any desire to
take away from tbe colored people
any of tbe rights they now enjoy
under tbe law.
The assurance given by tbe Re-
corseb is this morning sustained
by a written pledge signed by a
majority of the prominent white
citfsens of this city. This should
assure tbe colored people that they
have ao reason to fear that their
rights will in any way be interfered
with, aod that they can go on peace
fully about their business as in the
past.
To make assurance doubly sure,
the two most prominent members
of tbe Republican party in this
county through our columns this
morning assure their colored
friends that the elec, ion of Cleve
land {annot change theiccon.iition,
nor do they believe that there are
any who desire that it should be
changed. Tb$y give the colored
men good advice, and it should be
heeded.
These assurances would not have
been necessary had not the fears of
the colored people been arouse' 1
years ago by political demagogues,
who in order to control their votes
told] them that if the Democrats
ever got in power the colored peo
ple would be put back in slavery.
Believing this, as most of them did,
it was little wonder that the elec
tion of Cleveland threw them into
consternation. In their fears they
forgot that it was the Democrats of
the South who gave them equal
school privileges and protected
them in every legal right. It is to
assure them that their relations
will not be disturbed,and to pre
serve peace and harmony that these
assurances arc given.
As one who has carefully noted
tbo treatment of the colored peo
ple in the North and South, we
wish to Bay to them that the co’.
ored people lmvo no better friends
than the whilo people of the South,
with whom they have been raised
As tbe Republican papers ana
lyse tbe result of the election in
New York State the work of the
Independent Republicans becomes
plainly apparent. The Second
ward of Brooklyn, which has here
tolore been good for a Republican
majoiity of 500 or COO, gave Cleve
land Tuesday a majority of 498,
This is Ilcnry Ward Beecher’s
ward. Oueida county, in which
ex-Senator Conkling resides, gave
Garfield a majority of 1,946. On
Tuesday it gave Cleveland a ma
jority of 19. Itappears, therefore,
tiiat Beecher and Conkling may
not have performed a very insig
nificant part in defeating the
plumed knight.
We are more than pleased to see
that our friend, Gen. J. C. Black,
oi Danville, III—whom the Geor
gia delegation at the Chicago con
vention named for the second
place on the national ticket—lias
been elected to Congress over Joe
Cannon, who has held the position
for tbo past twelve yeais. Gen.
Black will make an able and indus
trious representative, and it does
our heart good to think that our
friends in Illinois will be so hand
somely represented in the House.

A Washington special says:
"Private information reached here
to-night from New York that Jay
Gould will, if Blaine's dofeat is
assured, not only lose hundreds of
thousands which he lias wagered
on the result, but it is not at all
improbablo that lie will be driven
into hopeless Insolvency. It Is be
lieved that lie has been staggering
under the load of bis watered
stocks, and bis only hope of relief
was In Blaine’s election. It is un
derstood that tbe bargain between
him and Mr. Blaine included not
only the withdrawal of tbe suits
against the Pacific Railroads for
the hundred million dollars owing
by them to the government, but
the promise to use tbe whole pow
er and patronage of the Executive
to snddle upon tbe government tbe
Western Union telegraph at its
inOatei stock valuation of $80,000,-
000. Of course, lots of Mr. Blaine’s
particular friends would come in
for nice slices out of thi«." It

Specinlly was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi
als bought <ui credit. These manufacturers placed their faith
on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on
it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given
for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous
warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there
was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods
over to an Assignee. It was bad for them, but it is in your
power to make it good for you, for, as usual, when good goods
are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
