Recently from the Srate of Louis
iana there went up to the Political
Mecca of this great country a dele
gation of preachers of color to advise
Mr. Harrison as to his duty towards
the Southern brauch of the G. O. P.
The President heard the gentlemen
with courtesy by listening attentive
ly; he wound up the interview by
doing a piece of preaching himself to
the colored delegation of preachers.
He told them to "go home and wash
their bands of all immediate con
nection with politics and have noth
ing to do with the scramble for of-
- fice."
These poor disappointed men re
turned home sadder, if not wiser.
Thsy feel the blow to be a heavy one,

their race was Vept together, ad
vised and guided through the pro

ABRAHAM LIXCOLX.
Twenty-four years ago Sunday
night, in Washington, Abraham Liu
cola was shot by John Wilkes Booth
at Ford's theatre. It is remarkable
that a people like the Americans
should pas3 by with so little com
memoration the anniversary of a
death that, in itself, is a momentous
historical event. While the lack of
notice is a remarkable fact, it is a
still more remarkable fact that our
brothers at the Xorth give the anni
versary of Lincoln's death tess uotice
than we, who are of that section
that refused at the time to be a part
of his national household. In this
we show the right spirit, and it is
believed and argued by some that
had Mr. Lincoln escaped an untimely
death it would have beeu far better
for the South in the time when she
was trying to redeem her waste places
and regaining a living-like condition.
But such was fate. The trials and
hardships experienced, even aftT
tictaal hostilities ceased, are yet vivid
to those who were found doing ser
vice in trying to maintain " the in
estimable sovereign right of local
self-government."
Quite an interesting article will be
found on the first page of this issue,
in which are given some facts con
nected with the assassination of Lin
coln and with the lives ot those who
participated in this fearful crime,

The Hlirna Hopeful.
The Landmark.
The result of the municipal elec
tions throughout the North and
West last week are very significant
and are worthy all the space devoted
in this paper to the subject. It is
notworthey that Chicago changed a
Republican majority of 20,000 into
a Democratic majority of 12,000;
that St. Louis, from a Republican
city of 8,000 majority becomes a
Democratic city of 1,600; that the
whole drift of the elections every
where was in favor of the Democra
cy; but most significant of all is
that in the general election in Rhode
Island that manufacturing and
reliable Republican State became
Democratic and its Legislature, in
which there was a Republican ma
jority of 71 last year, is now nearly
a tie between the two parties. The
number of failures throughout the
country is greater now than at the
same time last year and the number
of protected industries which are
shutting down or reducing wages is
greater. Can it be that the "good
times" which we were to have upon
the advent of a Republican adminis
tration are failing to show up and
that this fact explains the tidal
wave ? It certainly looks like some
thing is the matter.
The Big C'lrralated Paper.
Powell's Printers'. Ink says there
are only six papers in the country
to-day having each a circulation ex
ceeding 100,000 copies daily. They
are the Chicago News, the .Boston
Globe and the Boston Herald, the
New York News, the New York
World and the Philadelphia Record.
Only one of these the Record is
an exclusively morning paper; one
the New York News is an evening
paper; while four the Boston
Globe and the Herald, and the New
York World and the Chicago News
print both morning and evening
editions. And, what i3 quite re
markable, not one of these widely
circulated journals support the Re
publican party, and all advocate
Tariff Reform on the lines laid down
in President Cleveland's celebrated
messages to Congress.

The gravity of both parties while

advertised his loss in the News, but
nothing was heard from the missing
pocket book until .today, when a
sealed envelope, containing the $600
note and several receipts was receiv
ed by the editor of the News through

inference is that the man who found

From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Apiil 16, 1889.
"Sunset" Cox, the ever-smiling
Representative from New York, was
met coming out of the White House
by vour correspondent, and asked
what in the duce he was doing in
that gang of place-hunters. "Oh, I
simply called to say good bye to my
old friend Benjamin Harrison, as I
am afraid these fellows may worry
him to death in their mad hunt for
office before I return to Washington.'
Then as Mr. Cox was leaving he
added: "I feel well; very much
better than a little while ago. I
have been through the valley of the
shadow of political death with the
rest of the Democrats, and now I
am off on a lecturing tour
through
Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri and
Kansas. Something to make the
folks smile, you know, while I gath

shall get no more eggs than 1 pay

Mr.Cannady,the Sergeant-at-Arms
of the United States Senate, and a
good John Sherman Republican, is
charged by Senator Jones, of Nevada,
ex-Senator Mahone and Warner
Miller, Representative West, of New
York, with swindling and forgery
in connection with his management
of the North Carolina Oil and Creo
sote Company located at Wilming
ton, N. C. It is also stated that
Canmidy is indebted to other Sena
tors to the amount of $30,000 or
more for borrowed money. With
the usual audacity of men of his
kind Cannady says that when the
case is settled it will have no effect
upon his "personal integrity."
The Republicans have always
been notorious for their willingness
to make use at all times of United
States vessels for private pleasure
parties, and being out of power for
four years and without a precedent
for that length of time has not
changed them a particle iu this re
spect. On Saturday afternoon As
sistant Secretary of the Treasury
Tichenor took a party of friends
from here to Baltimore, where they
got aboard of the U. S. Revenue
cutter McLane and started on a trip
to Chesapeake Bay,' which lasted
from Sunday to Monday morning.
Another Government vessel, the
light-house tender, Holly, has been
lying at the wharf here, waiting for
three days to carry President Har
rison on a pleasure trip down the
Potomac. This looks like a rather
early revival of the old abuses. By
summer half a dozen vessels will be
needed for the various members of
the administration, for their fami
lies and friends. And the people
will foot the bills.

done by his superior officer, made an
order last week that will cost more
than $50,000 a year. The following
is the order : Whenever a pension

You will see tlie "Spring Poet" lias again broken loose,
And his poetry doubtless has received much abuse ;
But lie's going to tell you in spite of your taunts.
All that he knows about Swink's fine stock of pants.
Now, these pants were made in our neighboring town ;
(A place that is fast growing into renown ;)
And to be successful ourselves, we must patronize,
And do what we can to encourage home enterprise.
So fashionably made are all of these pants,
That the line was ne'er heard of in this country
And Swink has them in sizes to lit any limb,
For those who are stout and those who are slim.
He has them in colors to suit all your moods,
Gay or sober, in checks and stripes for the dudes ;
And so strong is the cloth that ihey never will tear,
And the buttons are warranted not to make a man swsar.
Now, my friends, if you are willing to take my advice.
And want pants that are comfortable and shoes that are nice,

Just go to Swink's and he'll give you fits.
