Pray who- is going to compel them to assume such responsibility? : Surety not the democrats, who are probably will ing, although 7 not anxious, to allow things to remain as they are; nor the Populists, unless they can make a 'deal ot their own benefit. If there is any compelling it will be done by republi cans. While I do not know that Senator Sherman has chosen the 'time " for '"the publication of his recollections during forty ' years in office with the special idea of ihjdring ope Benjamin Harri son, there arereasons which squint that way. For instance, Mr. Sherman charges in his book, without any ifsr ands, or buts, that Mr. Harrison's nom ination for the Presidency in 1888, was brought about by a corrupt bar gain with one man who controlled the New York delegation. Although no names were used,- it was perfectly plain that Mr. Sherman refers to the promise made by Steve Elkins, now a member of the Senate from) West Virginia, on behalf of Mr. Harrison, to Boss Tom Piatt, who was thej man in ; control of the New York, delegation,! jthat if Har rison was elected he (Piatt) should be Secretary of the Treasury. The break ing of that promises made Piatt the bit ter enemy of Harrison that he has been ever since. ' Mr. Sherman also has a fling at all the prominent Republicans and he leaves the impression tha with the exception of Hayes, who made Sherman Secretary of the Treasury and allowed his whole administration to be used to push' his Presidential boom they, were a bad aod tricky lot, an im pression, barring tihe exception, doubt- I less shared by lots of people.

Atlanta, Oct. 21. Negro Dary was the largest in point . of attendance the Exposition has had. They had an ode by Daniel Webster Davis, of Richmond, Va., an oration and addresses by. btate and Exposition officials, and the blacks did their . part with eminent success. The orator of the day was Rev. J. W. E. Bowen, a prominent educator of the South. : His subject was "An Apfjeal to the King.'' -The theme was: ' "Uas the negro any place in American life, and if so, what is that : place to be V The speaker proceeded to attack ; tne theory that there must be amalgama tion of blood to secure the greatest de velopment in national fife. 'jPlease God," said ho, "the negro will have sense enough to stay in this country and contribute to the correct solution, of this race question unti1 this nation shall become in truth homogeneous in senti ment though hetros:eneou8 in blood. Touching on the education of the ne gro, Rev. liowen declared that it muf t be on a par with the education of the white man. It must begin in the kin dergarten, as that of . the white child, and end with the, university, as that of the white man. . - , ' Referring to the negro department at the Exposition, the orator said that the race presented;: to the -country a few products of the race's skill; wrought out under advene and trying .circum stances. They were tendered as the earnest work of the race's undeveloped power and the promises of its 4 possible future. , President Collier : made a short ad dress congratulating- the race on its efforts and the it salts.

J ' The Charleston News and Courier, referring to the projected .visit of Pres ident"! Cleveland to Atlanta says: " Pesident Cleveland has given the South peace. This is reason enough, f from a somewhat selfish point of view, why the South 6hould delight to do him1 honor, and why his visit to Atlanta nesi week should-be made the occasion of a 'great popular demonstration. But there are other reasons why Mr. Cleveland de serves a hearty welcome in the South.' Not Only as the friend of the South, but as the President of the United States should he be welcomed. 1 By - his ex ample he has made public office a pub lie trust. His rigid devotion to the public good, his elevated conception of official duty; his wise and capable lead ership in public affairs, his spotless in egrity of personal character4-4hesc are the qualities which endear him to ,4he hearts of the American people; these are the qualities which entitle him to the gratitude and praise of all honest" and patriotic Southern men and women, and should make his visit to Atlanta a great popular-triumph, . .
