The Revolution In Politics-Th~ Citizen
Soldier Party.
Now that the war is over public attention
naturally turns to politics. The old politicians
are all afOat. Their partisan organs. day after
day, struggle theoretically to say nothing.
Some Of them were foolish enough to believe
that this civil warFould blow over, like little
squall, without disturbing anybody OF changing
anything. Now these politicians see their
error. The war has been a deluge which has
swept away all the old issues and all the old
parties. The time has come for something new
and something better Political power is to be
to other and ADLER hands. The men
who have saved the nation will preside over its
destinies.
The democratic and The republican parties
brought on our civil war. They both be-
lrayed the country. Neither Of them had any
principle. They fought under the common
banner Of place and pelf. The choice between
these two parties was choice Of two evils.
During the war the people chose what they con-
sidered the lesser evil; but now that the
Is over they are tired Of that sort of business.
The difference between the republican and
politicians is the difference be-
tween Morgan's two and half per cent, under
Secretary Welles, and Heuderson's ten per
cent, under Judge Nelson. That kind of poll
tics ia not to be endured any longer. The
time hos arrived for the formation Of u new,
national party, and We urge those Interested TO
begin the good work at once.
The reconstruction question, which 'he old
political leaders sought to lay hold upon TO
ave themselves from perdition. a a drowning
man catches at "a straw, is solving itself. All VI
The seeded States returning TO the Union
quite as rapidly az is convenient. The corr
stuiion settles the negro suffrage question. and
President Johnson will stand East by the con-
The labor question, which is also
included - reconstruction, admits OF very
simple solution. Those Southerners, white or
black. who will not work must stsrve. This is
the invaviable rule throughout the United
Ststes. and We see no reason 10 make spe-
cial exception in favor OF either the recent
rebels or the recent slaves. We will have no
appendix 10 the abolition agitation. The negro
ought to be let alone severely for a year or
two, and ne will then manage 70 take care Of
himself We pursue this policy with our white
Why should we adopt different
policy towards the blacks
Until the friends and followers Of Chief JUS
tice Chase find some means 10 answer the COM
mon sense views upon the reconstruction ques-
ton freely expressed by the masses of tho peo-
pie, and briefly stated in the preceding para
graph, we anticipate no trouble from
the party which he is endeavoring
to organize. His scheme must fall through,
because it has no bottom. The only thing 1t
would accomplish, il successful, would be the
elevation Of Mr.. Chase 10 the Presidency. But,
although Mr.. Chase may want the Presidency
