THE NATIONAL ANNIVERSARY.
AT LARGE.

Again the American people are call
cd to observe the day which ninety
two years ago first knew them as
nation without n monarch. The words
call men are created free and equal"
etc, then electrified the civilized world.
The long years that have intcrvened
since liberty was 'procaimcd through
out the land to all the inhabitants
thereof" have been years of political
strife in which the doctrine then enun-
ciatcd struggled for life, and only by
desperate means did it finally triumph
when its foes made last deadly coup
de etat. And yet the fight has been
revived again. Treason made odious
in the field is respected in Che forum,
and it has chosen this hallowed day on
which to marshal its discounted hosts
to battle against the Rights Of Man.
The, band of liberty-defamcrs who
n.::?t in the city of New York on the
Athinst., assemble for purpose as far
from that which actuatcd the dcclara-
ton of '76 as the zenith from the nadir,
and "more's the pity" that such pro-
fanaticn should be linked with the
holy associations surrounding it. The
Republican party is but contin-
uation of the bold argument then put
forth. 1t stands to-day where the few
Progressive spirits that framed the
Declaration Of Independence then
stood and offers to the country a see
ond Washington as the first soldier in
the Rcpublic-thc pcacc-maker of the
land-GENEaAL US. GRANT. Hence
when the day is here let patriots re-
joice that our country yet lives, make
new VOWS offcalty 10 that power which
proved a scourgc to treason and with
our martyred dead close up the pha-
lany of Freedom and move to more
brilliant conquestS. For
We say the dead do conquer! From their
graves

fight;
Eximple is their testament, which saves

UNGEASDTABLE.

Many people whom you converse
with nowadays on politics ex-
press hearty disgust of politicians
and the corruptions abroad in the land.
If he be a conservative you are talking
with, he says he "is tired of the dem
agogucsm that runs rampant in both
parties" he wants "a statesman, a man
that will steer clear of politics, and
work only for the country's good"
That sounds well, but hear what he
says when you propose Grant fol
President. ooh. that is hero-wor-
ship! ] am not of that kind, besides
Grant don't know what he is, he has
no ability, etc" But, you remon-
strate and assure him that Grant dis
played tact, energy and ability in his
campaigns, that he seemed to labor for
the good of the whole country and was
wise enough to let politics alone, but at
all times when necessary he was out
spoken in his demands for justice and
right, that the Office sought the man
and not the man the Office. Then
listen, II don't like the Chicago plat
FORM" There's where the secret lies.
Yet Grant in his letter of acceptance
says, "if elected President | shall
have no policy of my own to en-
force against the will of the people,"
He is weary of politics and politicians,
but cannot accept Grant because he
"ncver. said anything" and is anything
else but politician. He is no SOL
dier admirer and hates the Republican
party. What shall be done in his
case? The only thing we know of is,
treat him as the nonenity he Is. Pray,
where can there be found man ap-
preaching the statesman nearer than
Grant, who dabbled as little in public
affairs? Where in the history of our
country have we but the one precedent
of the Office of President seeking
man9 Now that the people have him
as their candidate it remains for the
honest men Of all parties to see thathe
is elected.

General Grant, though not a politi-
clan, has parenthetical way of stating
great truths and sententious facts
which is remarkable.
AS early as the second year of the
war, in a letter to Mr.. Washburne, he
writes: 81 never was an abolitionist
not even what could be called anti
slavery-but | try to Judge fairly and
honestly, and it became patent to my
mind early in the rebellion that the
North and South could never live in
peace with each other except as one
nation, and that without slavery"
And again: "As anxious as | am to
see peace established, would not,
therefore, be willing to see any settle
ment until this question is settled"
In his general order to his soldiers
after the capture of General Lee, in
referring to the enforcement of the
emancipation proclamation, he calls
Slavery the cause and pretext of the
rebellion"
In his famous letter to the Presi-
dent, while acting as Secretary Of war
al interim, he says: 81 stated that the
law was binding upon me, constitu
tional or not, until set aside by the
proper tribunal"-a doctrine that viii
do to stand by.
In his testimony before the impeach-
mcnt committee, he says: 81 have al
WAYS been attentive to my own duties,
and tried not to interfere with other
peoples" And again, "I never was
in favor of a general amnesty until the
time should come when it would be
safe to give it,"
In his correspondence with Presi-
dent johnson in reference to the re-
moval of General Sheridan from the
district of Louisiana, he says; "This
is Republic where the will Of the
people is the law of the land. | beg
that their voice may be heard"
In his speech to the committee ap-
pointed to inform him of his nomina-
ton, he said: "If chosen President, I
shall have no policy of my own to en-
force against the will of the people"
In his letter accepting the Republi-
can nomination, he says: "Purely ad-
ministrative officers should always be
left to execute the will of the people.
| have always respected that will and
always shall"
These are only samples of General
Grants manner of expressing great
trnths, culled at random from our
files; but they are "apples of gold in
pictures of silver" and show to the
people the manner of man he is.

DEMOCRACY AND ARIsTOCRACY.

In the sense of these terms as they
are used in modern times their mean
ing is synonymous. Even in the hal
cyon days of Democracy we find it the
advocate of class and caste. 1t is the
tail end of long line of Inherited no
JiHty striving to hold the mastery.
The Bourbons of America. Where
Monarchs rule the government is held
BY crafty mobiles century after century.
Baronial tyranny and "feudal faction
always flourish there. This is what
Democracy attempted to perpetuate
on the free soil of America, for proof
of which the reader is referred to the
social condition of the South before the
war and the sayings of her Statesmen.
Her social system was thoroughly i'm
prcgnatcd with the idea that there
must be a governing class and class
to be governed. How far she sue
cecdcd may be attcstcd by the complete
subiecton under which the masses Ia
bored, which compelled them to take
up arms against themselves at the
bidding of these ruling spirits. Not
only did this influence bind the negro
and the "white trash" Of the South but
it extended into the North and found
among her ireemen enough subjects tc
peril her freedom. Miscreants who
cringed to the sccptre tyrants know so
well how to wicld--powcr. Though
they appealed finally to the sword and
were defeated, no doubt remains bul
that they would build an empire OF
the ruins of our Republic if by cqjolery
and deceit they can blind the light Of
Rcpublicanism and by fawning upon
honesty and toll they can forge a chair
it will be impossible to sever. How
easily this may be accomplished de
pends upon the good sense of the la,
boring classes. fthey vote to allow
these men to get control of the Gov.
ernment then dukes and princes of an,
cicnt regime would be replaced witt
whisky Kings and Southern barons
who would tap Industry at every pore
and wiring from the brow of Labor al
income for their own and the support
Of their parasites. Their few leaders
waryand unscrupulous, ever have their
eye upon getting control, but as cdu-
cational interests advance the dark
reminder of the Middle Ages receles
The "chivalry" of American politics
palcs before the light ofrcpublican libcr-
ty and will continually fade as schools
become more common and the lower
classes correspondingly intelligent
Hence the cry from their lips OF
"plow-holders against bond-holders, y
prejudice and passion against princi-
pie, and our strong hope that the lat
ter will triumph.

Dlsfranchisine white Men.

Twelve hundred southern white men
were, on Monday, made citizens by
act OF Congress. All the Democrats
in the House, except one, voted against
removing the political disabilities of
these twelve hundred. We have been
told so often by the Democrats that
this is white mans government, that
we supposed, not unnaturally, they
would ioyfully vote to make it so but
they seem to prefer what they call ne
gro rule. The fact is, we suppose,
that they would disfranchise every
body but the Democrats for we
notice that wherever they can get a
negro to vote the Democratic ticket
they have nothing to say against black
votes. ~ Y. Post.
