New national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1870-1874, 1871-04-13

In spite of the great reduction Of taxes by Con
1871, our Republican Administration continues
to pay off the public debt at the average rate of
nearly SIC, 900, 900 month. During the two
years and one month of Gen. GRANTS admins
tration, the public debt has been decreased to
the extent of $204, 754 ,4l3. During the same
eminent, Notwithstanding the great reduction
of taxes, has been SS5, 900, 0O0 and the decrease
Of the Government expenses Sl26, 700, 900 !
Here is an annual saving to the people in in
terest alone of over $l2 900 900. And this is
the way the Administration has been carrying
out Gen. GRANTS pledges of economy, retrench.
ment, and reform in the finances of the country
While small politicians, disappointed Office
hunters, and soreheads generally have been
barking at his heels and whining about their
personal grievances, the President and his AID.
ministration have been faithfully and vigorously
engaged in lessening the burdens of the peo-
pie, reducing the internal revenue taxes, cut.
ting down the expenses of the Government in
every possible way, diminishing the amount of
interest on the public debt, and literally carry
ing out his promise in his inaugural address.
This is what the people required, and this is
what is securing for President GRANT so strong
hold upon the affections Of the people 1t is
true he has not contented himself with enforo-
ing the collection Of taxes and the honest ap-
plicstion Of them. In the meantime he has
used all the power vested in him to protect the
lives and property of Southern loyalists
While the very man who charged him with
being in sympathy with the Ku Klux was
trifing away the time OF the Senate in bitter
defamation, the President has been sending
troops to enforce the laws in the rebel States

The Questions Of ~.

Never. in all the political history Of this
country, have more important questions come
before our fellow citizens than those formn the
canvass of eighteen hundred and seventy two.
Already these. issues are looming up into a
present reality. They are even now entering
into the struggles of 1871. Very much depends
on the manner of the presentation of the vital
topics of today. We must go back to first
principles, and open this great campaign on
the broad, clear ground Of national justice and
equal rights Our standard must be elevated
to the high point of private virtue and public
patriotism, and then aud there nailed to the
mast.
The time has come for Republicans to pro.
claim, in advance, their principles and their
policy:
. l. The National Union must aud shall he
preserved.
q Secession unconstitut ional, aud. therefore,
impossible.
3. The payment Of the national debt.
4. Equal and exact justice to all.
5. Application Of the Monroe doctrine To all
adjacent territory rightfully belonging, by ma
ture and by choice. to the jurisdiction of the
United States.
6. All the Indian tribes under the American
flag adopted and gradually eufrauchized a.
American citizens.
I. Adequate prote ction to American labor.
On this plan of action the lines of battle
are being drawn. 1t is a great and glorious
contest. Many of the most precious hopes of
our Republic hang upon it. The North and
the South, the East and the West, are alike
interested in the final issue.
Republicans of America we have National
Union to maintain not n confederation Of in
dependent soveregnties; not IA community of
individuals joined by temporary compact but
union of all the State. under the same Con-
stitution, the same national flag, the same
national laws, the same national treaties the
same national currency.
With this high and grand mission controlling
the Republican party Of the United States, it
must and will march on 10 final victory.

There is no longer any doubt that the organi-
cation of Ku-Klux bands of assassins all
through the South is thoroughly matured plan
devised by the leaders of the Dem ocratic party
with the purpose Of overawing the loyal people
of the South, lettering them from exercising
the right of suffrage, and thus securing the
electoral vote of these reconstructed States in
1872, if they cannot obtain control of the State
governments before. The evidence that the
Democratic leaders of the country have re-
solved, by a system of Wholesale murder and
outrage, to create reign Of terror that will
contribute to their success in the next presi-
Dental election is to be found in the disgrace
full and infamous fact that every Copperhead
paper, and every Copperhead and rebel orator
and leader 10 the Union, either openly alirms and
sustains these outrages or denies their existence
Their whole power is exerted in Congress and
out to defeat all legislation designed to protect
the loyal people Of the South. Every Demo.
cratic member Of the House voted last week
against Mr.. SHELLABARaER's bill for the sup
preston Of murder, school house and church
burning, the whipping of men, women, and
children by the midnight Democratic assassins,
known as Ku-Klux. They declare by their
votes, asthey had in their speeches, that they
were in favor of the continuance of these bloody
and brutal acts, and meant to sustain them.
To put an end to them would endsnger their
success in these States. So the murders must

The Presidents Message Oh Sanfo
Domingo.

No paper emanating from the Presidential
Mansion, since General GRANTS administra-
ton began, has so universally commanded
acceptance and approval by the American
people as that accompanying the report of the
Commissioners Of Inquiry to Santo Domingo.
1t has lifted burden from the shoulders of tho
Republican party which was fast becoming
oppressive. Having indicated himself tri-
umphantly, and shown the motives of his policy
in relation to Santo Domingo to have been
pure, patriotic, AND altogether commendsble,
he quietly leaves the subject of annexation.
where it properly belongs, to the legislative
branch of the Government, to be dealt with
and disposed of by that responsible branch at
such time and manner its wisdom may suggest.
Some men predict that We never shall hear of
Santo Domingo more. But We believe that
the vital Importance of the acquisition Of that
country will become more and more manifest
and that the subject of attaining it will force
itself upon the attention of the Congress Of the
United States until it shall be fact accom-

Turned States Evidence.

Though there is as much and as strong proof
Of the wholesale murder of loyal men at the
South by organized bands of Democratic assas-
France and Germany, and much more, and
stronger than there is OF the present insurrec-
ton in Paris, every rebel and Copperhead mem
Der of Congress, and every COpperhead and
rebel newspaper at the North either absolutely
denies or else ustifes these murders. Indeed,
we know of but single exception among the
Copperhead newspapers North or South to this
course and not one among their leading men.
That exception is the Louisville Journal a
Democratic paper of the most pronounced char.
actsr. 1t neither denies nor iustites these
murders. On the contrary, it frankly admits
and strongly condemns them. 1t declares, also,
that the Democratic party must disconnect
itself from all association with Ku-Kluxsm,
or it can have no hope of success hereafter.
Whether the outrages are few or many, il
says, they must be ended and thereafter rem
dered mpossble aud it denounces the Demo-
cratic Legislature of Kentucky in good set
terms for refusing to adopt any measures for
protecting the lives and property of loyal
people. If they would not have interference
by the United States Government the State
itself must suppress these wrongs. The Jour
nal boldly says;
Dsnials are childish, and it ia worse than
childish to charge the Radicals with getting up
disturbances. be two positions contradict
each other. II there are no Disturbances, bow
ha Rad lie no ltr Rnt ka Eod
Gals are guilty, is that not an additional reason
why We should be earnest in administering
justiceS Intelligent Democrats can easily see
the mess into which incapable partisans would
lead US. There is but one hope for US, and that
is the complete ascendency Of the law. To
secure this We must conceal nothing, deny
nothing, but work late and early with our
judges, our grand juries, and our prosecuting
attorneys
The Journal hits the nail square on the head
when it shows the absurdty, frat, of charging
the Republicans with melting these murders
and other outrages, and then of denying their
existence. The argument is one they will find
it troublesome to answer. And it is equally
absurd for the Southern people to howl and
rave so fearfully about federal Intervention
while mulishly or wickedly neglecting to put
down the KuK lux themselves and to do any
thing towards enforcing the laws If the ex-
ample of the Louisville Journal, in condemn
ing these outrages, even, were to be followed
by the Copperhead press and their members of
Congress, they would end in month. But
they do not desire it. 1t is q system devised
and sustained by the rebel Democracy, to over
awe loyal men, and to keep them from the
