Show THE RACE BACK QUESTION si significant tact fact as indicative of the relative positions of the white and black races in the united states was presented in atie house of representatives when that body organized a week I 1 igo ago last monday it was that there was not among the eighteen score members who took the oath as such one black face or one that was dark by reason of blood not one whose ances estry ever knew any other systematic bondage than that imposed or permit led ed by the political systems of ef their 1 respective nations in the lac con 9 gres res the forty ninth there were two colored men baen ohara of north carolina ina and smalls of south varolina jaro the former being a mulatto and the latter lull full blooded and both unusually able and bright there were before that two negroes in the senate both from mis il pi jut but not at the same time hiram U K revels who wao was the first senator alter the war and blanche K bruce brace who succeeded him neither was reelected elected re and neither positive 16 showed how any a special fitness atness for the not i even witti with some of the white backwoods members of the lower braach no special issue save it be the republican bartys policy of baiting the black men lor for votes a policy watch succeeded very well till the native instinct of the african showed him that he was being used tor for a purpose and purpose not his own but the users advancement adan cement they are all zone cone now and the american theare congress angress is as ad it ic will doubtless remain in ia full possession pos of the caucasian anent this subject a was made at the public meeting of the re be icae caig national Nailoa al club in new york last evening by john K R lynch formerly a representative from mississippi and belonging to the unbleached bleAched ua element amod among g our oar fellow citizens in his harangue lynch made the extravagant assertion that cleveland was no more inore entitled to the electoral vote his hl state of louisiana or south carolina than lie he was to those of three new england states the dusky orators orator ascribing the fact of the former states being carried by cleveland to the eye and wholesale suppression of 0 the colored vote by the democrats 1710 claimed that there are wore morn negro neero than white votes la in bis state and that not u ft less than one third of the tat

recognize the between the two parties and k know now which one of them they belong to and would cast their ballots lur wis ia one it if per mattea they are still so inferior eror as at a dabs WAL tuat wita out oui third oi of the me acting them anti and toey they having 2000 over all which would mean with wiLb enair white allies majority in ill the state they are incapable ot of wielding such enormous sl it if they say bay they are intimidated they make their cast case worse for a maj majmin 11 ity will permit the minority to walk over them in a bbate election ana take po of the spoils lacks the very first principle on which is based ane liblit ol of suffrage buff rage the manhood to defend it L 1 they say they were counted out they them make the argument against their right to vote still stronger for they say that it la is possible for far the whites whiles to cut away their tow towering ering strength by fraud alent means and escape exposure or punishment knowing if u they kno

that there are no BO such frauds or else that the black race and its allies in the are too impotent and ignorant to wield a free ballot in either event the ex Congress mans lament bein being like the
