BUZZARDS COMING HOME TO ROOST*
The people of Upper Alton, III.,
are beginning to experience some of
the refining deiigbte of eociel equal
ity between the whitee and blacks,
tbattbay tried to force upon the
South. The negroes of that town
inaiat that their children ahall at
tend the aame school as the whites,
and went so far aa to try and carry
their point by force. Bat the good
republicans of Upper Alton at once
whiffed a very large sized skunk and
lost no time in expelling the ambi
tious yonng coons. They are hear
tily in favor of giving the negro his
every so- called aocial right in the
Sooth, and grow indignant when our
people refuse to take the colored man
and brother and all of his picka
ninnies to their arms; but when the
odor d’A fries is wafted under their
own nostrils, a revolt is at once
started and he is kicked out like a
dog.
In the Sonth, we believe in sepa
rate schools for the races; but in
Upper Alton, wear* incliued to back
Cuflee in his moat righteous dee
mauds. A people who are such out
spoken champions of social equality
for a distant section of country,
should be required to take the physic
they want to force down strangers.
It seems to us that the Illinois ne
gro—who has been undergoing the
refining and purifying influences of
Northern civilization—is a much
more desirable companion for the
Alton whites than one of our swamp
coons in Georgia, to whom soap is a
stranger. Besides, our Alton neigh
bors have always been taught to
look upon the negro in a much more
exalted light than were the Southern
whites, who have held him in servi
tude for generations. If the delicate
sensibilities of our Illinois friends
rebel at a contact with the highest
order of our black citizens, how can
they blame the Sonth for also kick
ing against having social equality
forced upon them with negroes,many
of whom ha*e made but short strides
in civilisation since their ancestors
were wearing a palm learand eating
snakes in Africa. The Upper Alton-
ites should be consistent. Let them
render unto Cuffee the same treat
ment that they demand of the South
for him, or else acknowledge the hy
pocrisy of their past conduct, and
endorse oar people when they take
such steps as will keep the negro in
his proper place.
Farmers Aldan-e to fear that they
will take any steps to eodaager the
success of the Hemociatic party, or
force on worthy officers upon the
country. Men who can defeat such
a power fat organization as the jute
trust, no one need fear to risk with
the reins of government.
The Farmer’s Alliance has under
taken a great and needful work—
the breaking do^n of trusts and
monopolists. To accomplish this
end it is necessary that the organi
zation enter politics. You had as
well expect a carpenter to build a
bouse without tools as for the Alli
ance to win the fight without having
State and Federal officers in hearty
sympathy with them. The Alliance
does not propose to boycott or ostra
cise a man from holding office sim
ply because be does not belong to
their organization *, but before they
will vote for a candidate he. must
have the ring of the true metal.
The Alliance is going to have a
controlling hand in politics this
year; but they will not let either
politics or politicians control them.
AN UNWRITTEN LAW-
There is an .unwritten law in the
South, and we never want to see it
forgotten. The law is this : When
a negro man lays the hand of vio
lence upon the person of a respecta
ble white womao, his life must pay
the penalty, and the first men into
whose hands he falls shall become
his executioners. We are opposed
to lynch law and mob violence, ex
cept for this offence—and we have no
respect for any community that per
mits the black ravisher of a white
woman to remain in jail and await
the slow process of law. The speedy
visitation of punishment for this of
fence has done more to deter and
prevent each outrages than all our
courts and penitentiaries. The ne-
grp knows that the person of a
white woman is ever sacred from his
profane touch, and he must pay for
such audacity with his life. But for
this knowledge, the Southern States
would soon become untenable for
white ladies, and the papers would
be filled with accounts of horrible
outrages.
Alliance, bat is rather uttered as a
bugaboo to frighten this lormidable
organization from taking any hand
in politics, thas leaving the naming
of officers to the old bosses who
have so loDg controlled matters.
We differ with these papers. While
Alliancemen should see that no old
broken-down political hacks ride
them into office, at the same time
it is not only right and proper, but
also theirdutv to see that the farmers
of our country—the men who feed
the world and keep the wheels of
commerce revolving—should exert a
large influence in selecting officers
to represent them. The Alliance
SHOULD TAKE AN ACTIVE AND DECIDED
stand in politics, ami see that men
are chosen to legislate for the coun-
THE ALLIANCE AND POLITICS*
There is a somewhat farions dis
cussion going on between the repre
sentatives of the Farmers’ Alliance
of Alabama and the Montgomery
Advertiser.
The gist of the whole matter, so
far as we can perceive, appears to be
the fear on the part of the Adverti
ser that the political aspirations of
prominent alliance men threaten to
breed discord and division in the
democratic party.
We have too much confidence in
the patriotism of the Farmers’ Alli
ance to fear that they will encourage,
or even tolerate, any movement tend
ing to threaten the success of the
democratic party.
Not only the Montgomery Adver-
tiaer,, but numerous papers in other
States, seem greatly exercised lest
the Alliance will get into politics
and thus endanger or wieck the or
ganization. This gratuitous advice,
it impresses us, is not given through .,
any desire to benefit and save the ont “ e,r face confer on Speaker Reed
THE NEW RULES.
The leading matter that will come
before Congress this week, says the
Richmond Times, and it is one of
the most important that will be
brought' forward this session, is the
report of the. Committee cn New
Rules, in the preparation of which
the Republican .members have bean
actively employed for some time.
The proposed changes have not been
considered in committee by the Dem
ocratio members, no invitation with
that view having been extended
them by the Republican members,
the plan of the latter being to spring
the'changes which they propose on
the rules, upon the Democrats either
to-day, or to morrow at a meeting
os the committe, aud at the earliest
moment thereafter, report them to
the House.
So far the business of the House
has been carried ,on under the regu
lation of general parliamentary usage
supplemented to a very great extent
by the arbitrary rulings of Speaker
Reed. The furtive course of the Re
publican msmbei8 in preparing the
new rules, is not only in keeping with
general conduct from the beginning
of the present session, but also
throws some light upon the charac
ter of the new rules themselves,
which from all that 19 known or
so far, were drawn jup wLoly with
view to suppressing a voice and
hampering the action of the minori
ty. If adopted by the House as they
now stand, they will undoubtedly
as much power to carfy out the pur
poses of his party as even he, bitter
and unscrupulous partisan that be
is, could wish. It only remains to
be seen, under these circumstances
if any resource at all is left in ob
structive measures.
