INGALLS ON THE NEGRO. Senator Ingalls delivered one of} his characteristic rhetorical speeches in the Senate last Thursday. It was, of course, political buncoinbe | The learned | on the negro question. senator knows full well that no such question exists before the American people to-day. But it answers as| a subterfuge to draw the attention of the people away from the main issue, and raise up and inflame the old time prejudice in the minds of the northern and western farmer. The tariff question is being ful ly discussed in a fair and impar- tial manner by the demoeratie party. This is just what the republican party don’t want. They must either have the blood and thunder or the log cabin and coon skin issue. The latter answered well in the last campaign. But the grandson of his grandfather is proving a sore disap- pointment to them and of course another issue has to be raised up. Who better titted by birth, educa tion, and experience for this con temptible task of creating dissatis- faction and disaffection among the negroes,and slandering and villifying the southern people than this gaunt, cynical statesman from bleeding Kansas. Tho people of that state have had some experience with this innocent cause of the great man’s eloquent tirade, and how did they mavage them? Did they invite them into their homes, introduce them to their wives and daughters, fuvite their children to take seats in their school rooms, aud in every respect treat them as’ they would have the people of the south treat them? Not all. The negro was full glad to return to his southern home from this exodus toa land of milk and honey, and the white Kansan was just as happy to get rid of him. It has been less than a year since the negroes of Ft. Scott demanded admittance into the white schools for their children and, of course, they were readily admitted and wel comed therein, in this home of Sen ator Ingalls? Not at all. They were promptly refused and a race war for a time was threatened, and was only prevented by an appeal to the courts. The same experi ence was had in Illinois, with the same result. But then the boot was on the other foot and of course don’t count. The Senator’s speech was embellished with the usual amount of blood and thunder harangue, go- ing as far as to advise the negro to resort to the torch and dagger. In a less great party man than Ingalls this would have been treasonable, but coming from the doubty Kan san, whose whole stock in trade it is, it can but provoke a smile from those it is intended to goad to mad- ness and desperation. The senator from Kansas, and the republican party had just as well understand that this country belongs to Cau- casians, and they propose to rule it. Just so long as the negro behaves himself and tends strictly to his own business, he can live peaceably and eq | ORGANIZE AS A THIRD CLASS CITY Two weeks ago yesterday an elec- tion was held in Butler to determine if the town should be organized as a leity of the third class. Afterwards | ithe mayor's proclamation was pub- jlished in his official organ | jority had been obtained, and de- | caring Butler a city of the third jelass. Since which 1 has ‘been doubt and uncertainty. The | official paper has repeatedly said that the board was uncertain as to jthe proper course to pursue. The city attorney seems to be in doubt. 'No action has been taken and we presume the council is waiting for an inspiration. Iu the meantime, so we are by learned counsel, we have no legally organized city government. The present city officers are simply officers de facto and not officers de jure. In other words the present city government cannot sue or be sued, or in fact do time ai informed rants, ete. We are, in fact, a city of the third class, but, strange to say, without an officer to sustain its dig- nity, and the prospects at the pres- ent that we will have any very soon are not very flattering. If there is auy reason why this dilly-dally pol- icy is being pursued we fail to see it. The members of the city coun- cil should do their duty as sworn | officers of the law and proceed to organize as a city of the third class | by dividing the city into four wards, | and calling an election to fill the! various offices. Until this is done} the business of the city is necessa- | rily at a stand still. MR. HEARD ON POLITICS. Confident of Vest’s Re.electron—Uol- man’s Chances for the Govern- reoentative Heard of Missouri, in an interview with the Star’s correspon dent to-day ay regarding the chances o reelection said: “Senator Vest | There will be no opposition to him in his own par will have a watk-over. ty, and no one inside or outside of it ean beat him.” | When asked about the probability of State Senator Major running against Senator Vest Mr. Heard said: tor Major has anuouneed, in| rview published in the How- ard County Advertiser, which is published at his own home, that he would not be a candidate for the sen ate or any other office. however, to serve term in the senate. against the world.” Mr. Heard was next asked as to| the chances of ex-Commissioner of Agriculture Colman for the govern ship of Missouri, and answered: “Mr. Colman is not in the race to my knowledge, but if he does go in he will get the nomination and be elected by an overwhelming majori ty, and he will make an excellent governor.” an int He intends out his present He is for Vest A Bogus Issue The African policy of the republi- can party, illustrated in the speeches of Ingalls and others among its radicals, is a confession of the party’s vital weakness. It feels it- self whipped on the tariff, on its general financial policy and on every real issue before the people. Ina broader sense it is attempting to do what Mr. Wood recently did in Ohio for Foraker—forge a bogus issue and force the fight cn it. Hopeless- happily in the south, but the people of that section will not be governed by anignorant, superstitious, illiter- ate and in every way inferior race. No more would the people of the north or even Kansas, submit to such an outrage on civilization. Hon. William G. Downing, candi date to succeed himself as Railroad Commissioner of the state, made us a very pleasant call while in the city Thursday. He assumes all the re- sponsibility of appointing Burke as Grain Inspector, and says that it was ai good selection; that Burke is a farmer and a grain expert, besides an excellent gentle. map, honest and upright in all his dealings, and was recommended. for the appointment by some of the best men of the state. Mr. Down- ing is a clever gentleman, has made take in this matter, he was evident- his motives. & good official and if he made a mise! ly worsted on the tariff, it is urging forward on the lines which it follow- ed in the last national campaign, using the negro asa pretext for a revival of a bitter sectionalism. If it can force its bogus issues in any business, such as passing ordi- | nances, make contracts, issue war- | ‘POSSIBLY OVERLOOKED.
