BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Friday M-.. rxixg, Feb. 27, 1891. SETTLING ITSELF. so-called race problem is rap- Th idiv losing its interest and is no coger regarded with the same con cern that it once was for the reason that it is becoming more apparent every year that it is settling itself, slowly but surely and effectually. There is not a Southern State to-day where the .negro is the same power ful factor in the destiny of the State that he was ten years ago, and con sequently there is no State where his presence is viewed with apprehen sion. Emigration and indifference to the right of suffrage are doing for the people of the South what the more thoughtful feared a few years ao the y would be unable to do for themselves. Ever since the war the negroes of tiie more nortnern Southern States have been moving further South in greater or less numbers every year. l ne migratory inclination has ex tended reaching into South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida and even into Mississippi, the land of promise to so many negroes of the Southern border States. The negroes are of a migratory disposition ; they are never better satisfied than, when they are on the move, although they may know little or nothing of the objective point which they have in view, and but few could give a good reason why they move. In eight cases out of ten they do it on impulse and not on judgment, which figures very little in the premises. This has been strikingly and fre quently illustrated in the migratory movement from this State, which as sumed in some localities the charac ter of a craze, by which old and young, male and female became affected. For twenty-five years this exodus has been going on every year to a greater or less extent, aggre gating in this time many thousands, how many cannot be told, for no record has been kept of the number. The same influences have been at work in other States South of us, although, perhaps, not as strikingly manifested,: but that it has been at work is demonstrated by the small gain in the black population as com pared with the white within the past decade, in these States where the migratory spirit became prevalent. The large increase in the colored poDulation of Mississippi, Arkansas and Louisiana, in these counties bordering on the Mississippi will show where most of them have pitched their tents, while other thousands have drifted to the West and driven stakes in Kansas and Oklahoma, where there are probably thirty thousand of them. While this decrease in the ratio of the colored to the white population has been going on in every State east of Mississippi, it has been effec- tually settling the race problem while thoughtful people were dis cussing it and politicians were rant ing on it, as one of the great unsolv ed problems which needed" the light of their genius to illumine the way to its solution. While they were do ing the ranting the unsophisticated colored brother who was the mno cent cause of itrall was quietly doing the colonizing, But, it may be asked, will not the transfer of the preponderating col ored population to the States bor dering on the Mississippi simnly shift the problem and bring them face to face with the dangers from which the other States have so luck ily escaped? Yes ; but they will have the courage, tact and capacity to meet it when the emergency presents itself, as Mississippi did when action became necessary, and they will do it without a jar, or a ripple on the surface. They will do it by restrict ing suffrage so as to keep the gov jernment in the nanus ot in telligent and responsible citizen ship. This will be done, too, with the acquiescence if aot the co-opera tion of the colored population, the majority of whom when left to them selves and uninfluenced by politi cians of their own or of the white race care no more for the ballot which they once enjoyed when it was a novelty and they had exag gerated ideas of its magic influence, than they do for a last year's bird's nest. . There was a time when there was a race problem in the South, but that time has srone by, for it has solved itself, while the esteemed Republican ftatesmen" on the other side of the line were working them selves up into paroxysms of excite ment over it. MINOR MENTION. The friends of the ship subsidy steal in the House of Representatives were so determined lo carry it through that they made it a special order taking precedence of those regular appropriation bills still un disposed of. It is said there is one of the biggest lobbies gathered in Washington to work for this bill that has been seen there for years. That this lobby has not been idle and that it has made its influence felt is attested by the fact that the seats on the Republican side of the chamber are, as Mr. McKinley said, "pretty well filled," so well filled that they can prevent anv obstruc tion on the part of the Democrats. Mr. McKinley was candid enough to informi the Democrats that there were Republicans enough present to carry through all the legislation they U,J 1 i.i .. . imu mappeu out, ana mat they in tended to do it. This being so where is the use of any debate at all? Why not dispense with that idle tormality, quit fooling, and de clare the bills they have decided up on passed ? Mr. McKinley solemnly declared in the House Wednesday that he did not believe that the popular verdict of last November, by which so many Republican statesmen were retired to private life, was based on the worK ot this Congress. It may be some comfort for Mr. McKinley to believe this, if he really does, but it is difficult to see how he can believe it when the main issue before the people was the tariff bill, for which he stood sponsor. When making this declaration, however, he did not undertake to enlighten the country as to what the verdict was based upon although there was an inter rogative chorus from the Democratic side inquiring, '-What was it?" He was not in a responsive frame of mind and consequently the inquiry was unanswered and unnoticed, but instead heinformed his questioners that his side of the House proposed to go on and complete its work after which the people "wiUgo" on and complete the work which they began last November. . lit Under the rules adopted by the House of Representatives of this Congress, with the gag -attachment, the raaioritv has hpen ahl ne majority has been able to carry an icxiaiatiuu il nronospn without hindiance by the minority x r i The result has been some of the most outrageous and infamous leg islation, and a record of extrava gance never equalled nor approach ed by any preceding Congress. Not withstanding the universal demand for retrenchment and rpfnrm n- withstanding the depressed condi- - - j UJt tion of some of the leading indus tries of the country and the heavy burdens already borne by the people, the appropriations made by this reckless and riotous Congress ex ceed by over a hundred and two millions of dollars the appropria tions made by the preceding Con- gress. Aside from the partisan schemes whirh X u pa"ISan schemes which they followed up with such zeal their main efforts were devoted to getting away with as much ot the people's money as possible. Illinois is one of the best agricul tural States in the West. There is no State in which the farmer should be more prosperous, for in addition to good land the State is traversed by railroads running in all directions, giving quick . and cheap transporta tion for the products of the farmer to the best markets in this country. Central Illinois is within five or six hours by rail of Chicago, the great est market in the West, within five or six hours of St. Louis, another of tne greatest markets, and within a day's distance of the great cities on the eastern seaboard, and yet there is an exodus from that section to Iowa and Nebraska, enticed thither by cheap lands. They are leaving one of the very best sections in the West, with the hope of bettering their condition by starting life anew in another section which has less to offer save cheap lands. CURRENT COMMENT. The reappearance of Foraker shows that the only way to be for ever rid of a "dead" statesman is to cremate him. Foraker was only slightly roasted. yV. Y. Continent, Ind. Certain Republican journals are attempting to defend what they call the reputation of Senator Quay. Such heavy gymnastics are too ex hausting to be considered a pastime. They will, of course, be unsuccessful, because Mr. Quay hasn't had any reputation for quite a number of years. N. Y. Herald, Ind. The bill for a Government guarantee of $100,000,000 to the Nicaragua Canal Company has an other "Credit Mobilier" scheme in its belly. In fact, the "Credit Mo biler, in the guise of an inside ring called a "Construction Company," is already organized, and is on waiting to gobble the 100,000,000 of pub lic money. Phil. Record, Dem. After six centuries the voice of statesmen in the Christian Church is heard in the land as loudly pro claiming the liberty of the mind and the rights of humanity as in the days of Runnymede and Archbishop Langton. The revival in leadership of the church is a significant feature of the times. The influence of Bish op Potter in behalf of higher politics and of Archbishop Gibbons in aid of workmgmen is the same sort of in fluence that is outspreading 'from the pulpit of Methodist, of Baptist,of Presbyterian and all other denomi nations. Wash. Star, Ind. THAT BLESSED BABY. Tho Dear Little Thins and the Wonder ful Things it Could Do. Youth's Companion. One of the many thousands of wonderful babies was lately brought out for the inspection of a friend of the family. "Really, Mr. Seacook," said the mother, "I suppose it's perfectly natural tor every mother to think that her baby is the smartest one in the world, but our baby just proves it. "Indeed! What does he do?" "Everything, Mr. Seacook every- mine. . t "Does he walk?" "Why, he's too young for that! rhe idea of a baby not yet a year old walking! But just let me hold hm up in my arms and see how per fectly he executes the Highland fling-" The baby kicks out his legs. Mr Seacook expresses wonder and admi ration and asks: "Can he say 'mamma ?' " "Oh, no; but you ought to hear him imitate a locomotive." "Dear me! How does he do it?" "He puffs out his little cheeks and says: 'Uo! Uo! "Well, now, that is surprising what other remarkable things can the baby do?" "Oh, Mr. Seacook, you should see him when I take him up in my arms so! He looks up in my face iust as sweetly, and breathes !' The gentleman agreed that at the last the most wonderful babv had been found. Undls uted Merit.

STORY OF A MONSTER. A Mulatto and His Companions Live on Human Flesh. A dispatch from Rio Janeiro to the New York Herald says there is in prison at Salinas, State of Minas Gercies, a monster in human form, and gives the following extract about him from the journal Cidade de Leo poldina Learning that there had been con fined in the jail of this town by the ener 'ctic police delegate an indivi dual who for months had been liv ing on human flesh, a desire arose for seeing him, notwithstanding the horror that, as regards him. is in spired in every heart. His name is Clemente Viliza. He is a mulatto, about twenty-eight years old, me dium height and of slight body, flat forehead, oblique eyes, with black pupils; deformed feet, with concave soles; a native of this district. Without the slighest disturbance of manner he replied to my question as to whether it were true that he had been living on human flesh ; that not only he, but Basilio, Lean dro and others for a long time had been living on this food. "What purpose led you to practice such acts, barbarous before God and man?" "To kill my hunger, master." "How did you make your first victim ?" "I was at Leandro's house when he invited me to eat a piece of a boy that he had killed in a thicket, where the lad was gathering fruit, and as I was very hungry and had no other resource, I accepted the in vitation for the first time. On the next day, returning home, I found a woman asleep by the roadside and was at once tempted to kill her. I took a stone and made my first vic tim, and carried her home to satisfy my hunger. "Some days after killing Simplicia. Invited Francisca ;and Severa, who were dying from starvation, to help me eat him. "When Simpl icia's flesh was finish ed, and I being without any means of satisfying my hunger, Francisca, told me to kill her two children for us to eat, whice I did. Two weeks after, in the same straits, Basilio and I killed Francisca for the same pur pose. Afterward I found that Basilio had stolen a shirt from rile, and I killed him when he was unsuspi ciously gathering roots for supper I only ate a little ot him, for I was arrested two days after killing him this was the last I killed. The police found apart of Basilio salted down and the cannibal eating the calves of the victim's legs with a good appetite. "Does human flesh have an agree able taste? "No, it is rather sweetish. The best things I found in those I killed were the brains, tongue and marrow: suffered slightly from diarrhoea while I was eating people's fltsh "How did you prepare the flesh for eating?" "We ate it roasted or boiled with a good deal of pep: er." nn:.l .1 r -lmu not me remains oi your vie tims inspire you with fear?" i.lIfL T1 1 1 . vvnen i looKea at them 1 teit a slight tremor" "Do-you sleep well?"

The Democratic party has a proud re- cord, and its essential principles are easy of enunciation. Let us remember that the more planks there are in a platform the fewer people can stand on it, the more articles there are in a creed the fewer people will subscribe to it. New bern fournal. There are two serious sides to the free coinage question, and the Southern peo ple wno are poor and needy, should mind what sort of a hand they deal. The west h js abandoned the eastern idea of protection after having drained the south of millions. The south has been a kick er all the time, and now the west seizes the opportunity to pacify us and to make money and politics for itself. Let the south go slow. Charlotte Chronicle.
