SRAUD, FALSE RETURNS, ETC. bor fifteen years ten millions of Awetican citizens have been de- ved of their politreai rights by dud, violence and perjury. They sattled continually to obtain 8; but have done so without il of hel from the party se cause is theirs. The fact of wroag is so plain that all who Tun may read; and has settled from general avowal at the ' to settle conviction at the The sufferers have main- the straggle ia the hope ‘hey would receive assistance ithe North; but have 1adulged “et hope so long in vain, as to ‘awoke to the conclusion that North regards the wrong with duess if not with sympathy. ; ‘ey have looked to the Federal ‘s for a punishment of the les bat the ballot-box er, the maker of the false re- S, the man who dares to drive ‘ets of the United States from eal discharge of their duty, have sR allowed to go, in nine cases = ol ten, unwhipt of justice. In He teeth of all this, these outraged doers; the millions have fought their fight resolutely, electing representatives of their choice one after an other. Congress failed to do its duty. Its election committees have dawdled over the demand for their right of Tepresentation embodied in the person of representatives, white or colored, whose election might have been made a qaestion of technical proof but could ot have been made a question ‘of moral doubt. Those committees accepted all the pleading of legal chicane as to the reling out of evidence or the ac- ceptance of proof in the most wan ton violation of the substance of right and reason. They have ex- cluded representatives of millions of American citizens whose elec- tion by large majorities was beyond all doubt in the popular conscience and judgement, to make way for men puting forward certificates known to be the product of a con- spiracy which preaches openly and evangel of perjury, an avowed de- termination to nullify a solem compact of the constitution whieh guarantees to ten millions of native born Americans the right of repre~ sentation at the ear of the Na- tion. The ten millions on whom this succession of outrage has been put are colored people—Negroes. As such they are subjects of a preje- dice too strong for the ties of bu manity, too strong for even the ties ef party. Iften millions of native born whites were disfran- chised openly as those tea million ot native born colored people have by a conspiraey of fraud and mur- der, would that fraud and murder have been allowed to pass by the Federal Courts in even one instance unpunished? Uf those “Negroes” had been “caucasins,” who sap poses for one moment that Con- gress would have accepted their disfranchisement, or that one of its committees would have dared to ask that it do so, in contemptible quibbles, or shadow, petty fogings urged in the teeth of all moral conyiction—in. the teeth of right, reason and justice? The Republi- ean party of the North has surren- dered to prejadice in an infamous failure of its duty. It was appre- hensive not long since of the color- ed vote in the close States, appre- hensive in what may have been supposed with good reason to be a smiting of its conscience. And it now seems to have sought an apeas- ment, if not of its conscience, of at all events its sense of expediency, by an election bill glittering with splendid promises. Eyen though the assassiu and the perjurer and the agents of nullification cannot continue to force their way through the bill to the doors of the House of Representatives under the coop- eration of Republican prejudices, has the Republican party consider- ed whether the protection which it is supposed to give to colored vot- ers at this 11th hour; will find any colored voters to protect? The disfranchised millions are demoral- ized by half a generation of strug- gle against hope. Suspecting with a distrust which 18 growing rapidly, especially at | the North, that they have been vir- | tually stabbed in the house of their |friends, they naturally begin to | count up the cost of the conflict— its cost in waste of time and loss of sympathy, in an interference with their industry and an insolation from their neighbors. heir spirit lis broken by a succession of defeats suspect strongly of | treachery. It is time, it vot even |} too late, to speak out. For even the election bill with all its glitt- jering pretensions is open to the |quesiion of party sincerity, while !tuousands of electoral perjuries, | ballot-box-staffers, mntimidators of | United States Supervisors, are | allowed to go at large; and while |dozens of representatives whose leleciions by large majorities are | known to be moral certainties, are | turned from the doors of the House | of Representatives at the bidding | of the quibbles of attorueys suffici~ /ently advanced in law to grasp its | technicalities in snocks to the intelligence ofnot only the white | masses, bat of even that of the | betrayed Negro. which they | | SPECIAL |FOR SALE; -Coolidge express; | two good wagous 3 horses 3 sets | of barness allin good order.
