New Orleans Republican., 1868-11-12

The St. Louis Democrat concludes long
editorial with the following suggestions.
We commend them to the men of New Or
leans who have suffered their political
prejudices to overcome their judgment:
The South has suffered to the extent of
many millions of dollars by the folly Of its
would-be rulers. Months have been lost.
Labor is more deranged than ever. Conf
dence between employer and laboFer, once
partly restored, is wholly broken. Indus
try is paralyzed, and nobody dreams of i'm
migrating to country so cursed, or of ia-
vesting dollar in any of its enterprises.
But while the South has lost millions, the
North has also lost and st. Louis especially
suffers in her business for the unspeakable
stupidity OF the Democratic conviction.
What can be done? The South ought to
begin at once to retrace its steps. 1t has
been resisting law; it must begin to obey
law. 1t has been denying the rights guar
anteed by the Constitution to every citizen;
it must begin to guard and protect these
rights. 1t has been Safeguarding North
ern men and repelling immigration; it must
begin to understand that the South
will never be prosperous until Northern
energy, sense and capital give it new life.
1t has been tolerating and encouraging
gangs Of cut-throats called Ku-Klux. It
had much better begin to shoot every man
Of such gangs on sight, or to string him to
the nearest tree. Until the people of the
South undo what they have done, and res
tore order and submission to law, they can
not expect to recover from the evils into
which the folly of Democratic leaders has
plunged them.
New Orleans Republican., 1868-11-12
PIREBRANns

A short time since cOlored Representa-
tive, melted, probably, to the passionate
outburst by personal insults, declared in
the Legislature that should the increasing
animosity and oppression Of political
opponents culminate, as by many signs
indicated, in physical violence and outrage
toward his race, the torch might be resorted
to as last means Of defense against theil
assailants. We considered the expression
wrong, by 10 common necessity defensible
although, perhaps, the natural, irrepressi-
ble expression Of high-spirited manhood,
goaded beyond forbearance BY the attacks
