ITS FOURTH ERA.

Having achieved this grand work,
having passed through these three
eras of its history, the Republican
party, entering It's fourth era, was
summoned to deal with questions re-
Iating to the national debt, the eur
rency, finances, and taxation, to re-
forms in the military, naval and In
dian service, and whatever remaining
burdens and Iegacies were left By the
war. Concerning these questions there
are apparent diversities of interests
and real differences of opinion. The
solutions of some of them are embar-
rassed by grave difficulties. They re-
quire time as well as financial skill
and practical craftsmanship for their
adjustment. Differences Of opinion
on matters so recondite and complex,
in an organization embracing so many
men of large intelligence, trained TO
habits of independent thought, ex-
preston and modes Of action, are in
evitable. They are5 indeed, to be ex-
pected and desired, for from such free
dom of discussion truth is elected and
proper modes of action are deduced.-
The men, therefore, who stood so
firmly while in a minority, amid the
arrogance, and scOrn of
power; the men who met the stern
of civil war with such he
roic courage, who assailed the slave
power and extirpated the slave system,
the men who grappled so successfully
with the perplexing pregnant issues of
reconstruction, lifted helpless freed
men up to citizenship, exalted them to
the heights Of civil and political right
and privileges, and made the nation
free in fact as we'll as in name, should
not shrink from the less momentous
and less embarrassing questions now
before them.
WORK TO BE ACCOMPLISHED.
Patriotism, principle, the continued
existence, reputation and renown Of
the Republican party, and a due sense
of self-respect and pride of character,
demand that Republicans now, as in
the past, should have faith in their ca
pacity to carry forward to completion
so auspiciously begun. 1t
The Highland weekly news. [volume] (Hillsborough [Hillsboro], Highland County, Ohio) 1853-1886, 1870-09-01

remained unsubdued in will and IN
repentant in spirit and purpose
Though made free, the bondmen were
homeless, without property, without
employment, subject to the cruel laws
against free people Of color which had
always disgraced Southern Iegis1atlony
and in the midst of a people exaspera-
ted by defeat and maddened by their
loss Of power still longer to hold and
oppress. Property was swept away,
industry disorganized, society disln-
tegrated, and States were without
lawful government.
THE WORK OF RECONsTRUCTIoN.
Upon the Republican party devolv-'
ed the task Of reconstruction. To It's
intrinsic difficulties were added the
intense hostility of the ex-rebels, the
lingering prejudices long engendered
by the slave system, the timid couh-
sells Of conservatism and the apostacy
Of the Executive. Great interests and
powerful combinations sought to so
reconstruct the South as to place the
power in the hands Of the late slaveS
holding class, and leave the helpless
freedmen in the abject condition Of
practical serfdom. Seldom in history
has there been imposed upon any body
of men a work Of greater magnitude
or difficulty. The Republicans might
have shrunk from and avoided it
They were sOrely tempted to do so.
But they resisted the temptation of
official power aud patronage, the
threats Of Executive dictation, and all
other adverse influences, and with
sublime fidelity and courage addressed
themselves to the hercuIean task. To
aid in recognizing disordered indus.
tries, caring for, protecting, and in.
Istructing the emancipated bondmen
in the new duties of their changed
condition, the Republicans established
the Freedmen's Bureau, which, blythe
wise expenditure of a few millions Of
dollars, did an incalculable work for
order, peace, and the rehabilitation cf
Southern society. To reconstruct
rebellious States on the solid
basis of equal rights, they gave suf-
frage to the freedmen in the recon-
Estructiou measures. To secure citi-
zenship and civil rights to wrODged
and hated race, they proposed and
adopted the Fourteenth Amendment,
and enacted the bill of civil rights
To establish by irreversible guaran-
tees equal political rights and privi-
Ileges, they adopted the Fifteenth
Amendment, and as a crowning act
for freedom, they provided by law for
the enforcement of these amendments
thus newly enshrined within the
Constitution. Thus the Republicans,
against the sternest opposition, against
Misrepresentation, against appalling
obstacles, have struggled on until the
rebel States, reconstructed on the basis
of Impartial liberty, have been restOr-
ed, and the sublime doctrines of the
Declaration Of Independence made
assured and practical realities. In the
progress of the ages it has been given
to few, in any form or by any modes,
to achieve a work so vast, so grand, 50
benefcent, so sure to be recorded by
history, and applauded and remember
ed by coming generations.
