CLIPPINGS.

When Senator Sumner was vigorously
opposing the San Domingo scheme the
Democracy were almost ready to fall
down and worship him-he was great
statesman, and the "noblest work of
God, an honest man." Since then he
has seen fit to advocate and vote for the
bill for the punishment of the Ku Klux !;
and the Democracy now declare that he
is demagogus, an inconsistent parti-
san, bound up with pre;udices that he
has eaten his own words. With your
true Democratic writer and speaker, ev-
cry one who says or does ought that is
damaging to their party is narrow mind
ed and unworthy Of confidence while he
who says or does anything which may,
even directly, contribute to the success
of their party is great and good man.
How valuable the concentrations of such
persons, and how terrible their lenuncia-
tions
Senators Schurz and Sumner do not
propose that their opinions On the San
Domingo question shall effect their
standing III the Republican party. The
late proceedings in the senate show that
the era Of good feeling is returning, and
that the Democratic hopes of lasting
dissension are blasted An interesting
scene is des cribed as having occurred
during the discussion on the Ku Klux
bill.
Mr. Howe withdrew the charges made
in his San Domingo speech, of Mr.. Sum
ner's unfaithfulness to the Republican
party. After that senator's speech OF
yestesday, Mr. Howe said he would not
doubt his full sympathy witk its princi
pies. To accusing Mr. Sumner, how
ever, he had not done SO in spirit of
wilfullness. Mr.. Sumner 5 reply was ef-
fective and full Of feeling. He had only
done as he should always do-iuterpose
his objection to unconstitutional action
| Mr.. Schurz made a strong speech
criticising the Ku klux bill as amended
by the Judiciary committee, but agreeing
generally to its provisions, and, sharply
arraigning the Democracy for the southi
ern situation. He claimed the right o.
private judg ment when he deemed the
administration policy wrong. On en-
franchisement In Missouri and the San
Domingo policy, he had differed with th,
administration but was, nevertheless 6
Republican, and did not design leaving
the party. There was not much com
fort for Democrats in this scene.

ADseuENMENr OF CONGRESS.

At two o'clock on the 2lst inst, the
two Houses of Congress, having agreed
/ to the third conference report on the
Ku-Klux bill, adjourned sine de. The
House was the last to agree on the re-
port on the bill just named, and finally
passed it by vote of yeas SO, nays "A.
The bill retains the test oath for jurors,
and is not materially changed from the
form in which it first passed the House.
1t confers extraordinary powers upon the
/ President, giving him power to use the
military force to suppress disorders even
! though the governors of states do not
call upon him to do so, and authorizing
him to suspend the writ of ha5eas cor
pus, if in his judgment the act will contri-
butte to the suppression of disorder and
outrages. This extraordinary power is
limited, however, to the end of the sec
ond session of the present Congress. 1t
is not every man we would be willing to
see invested with SO much power, but
we have no fear that Grant will use it to
the detriment of any honest, peaceabie
citizen of the country and so far as the
assassins of the south are concerned it
does not matter how summarily they are
punished. Their monstrous crimes
against unofending persons have placed
them without the pale of civilization
almost. If the law shall result in the
punishmo t of the scoundrels who have
so long u5turbed the peace of the south
ern States, we shall be glad of its pas
sage; we confess, however, that we have
little faith that such will be the result.
The virus of the rebellion is all through
the south, and there is scarcely enough 10y
atty in that region or respect enough for
law and order to furnish any assistance
in the enforcement of laws against those
who commit crimes that have any politi-
cal bearing We fear that darker times
may be in store for the country before
complete peace and order are restored.
The Government too soon after the war
began to talk of mercy, and pardon, and
reconciliation little well directed retri-
button then-swift and terrible-would
have had most wholesome effect, and
would have prepared the rebel mind to
receive with gratitude what ever mercy
and pardon might have been bestowed
But that time, With all its opportunities
for quieting the spirit of rebe lion, has
passed, and now the government is left
to experiment to discover the panacea for
the ills of the country.
The Democrats profess to see in this
bill for the punishment of the Ku Klux
scheme for the political control of the
south by the Republicans, and talk lugu-
briously about the overthrow of the con-
stitution and the liberties of the country.
With far more Justice may the Demo
Gratis be charged with desire to carry
the elections in the southern states
through the terrorism exercised by these
secret organizations of assassins. A Demo-
cratic victory has always been the result
Of the active presence of the ku-Klux.
We believe that the men who voted for
this bill did so with a sincere desire to
secure the punishment of criminals, and
that alone.

Pr oTECEIoN TO HOME INDUSTRY.

In this connection I deem it not in ap-
propriate to advert to the subject of Pro-
lection to our industrial pursuits. do
not advocate what is termed Tariff
The present Tariff, except as it has
been recently modified, was made to cor
respond with heavy internal taxation. and
should now, as it undoubtedly will be
materially reduced.
Revenue Reform" in its practical
sense, cannot be strongly urged upon
those who make and administer the laws.
But the term when used to express the
views of some of the most demonstrative
advocates is some what vague and in6e-
finite. 1t is made the watchword of men
who entertain all shades of opinions ON
revenue questions, and especially those
who advocates absolute Free Trade. A
Revenue Reform securing the strictest
economy in all our expenditures, and pro-
yiding for the removal of National taxa
ton from the necessaries of life, and the
productive industry of the country, the
reduction or entire removal of duties on
such needful articles as do not come in
| to injurious competition with our own pro
| ductions, should receive our earnest sup
| port. 1t is delusive to suppose that the
necessary expenses ofthe Government and
| the interest on the public debt can be
paid, and moderate reduction of the
debt provided for without heavy taxation
i of some kind. \ policy that will bring
the products of European labor that may
be had for fifteen 70 fifty cents day into
/ competition IN our markets OF equal
| terms with our own labor, should and
will be repudiated by the American peo-
! pie. What we need is a policy that will
secure not less, but more pay for our
| own laborers.
| The laboring man in this country occu-
/ pies.a position In society entirely diifere ut
! from the workingmen OF Europe. They
are the equals of their eountrymen who
are engaged in other pursuits. We can
not afford to allow their degradation
through the influence of half-paid labor.
we now consume too much of the pro-
duets of foreign labor and too little of our
own. a nation wealth is in its laboring
men end women, aud labor enriches the
nation, and the individual in proportion
to its productive value.
The country is the most prosperous
financially that approximates the nearest
to supplying its demands for home con-
sumption, and exports the most of its
industries
While, therefore, would cooperate in
every measure tending to reduce the ex-
pense of living and tighten the burdens
of taxation, | earnestly hope no policy
will be adopted that viii degrade Ameri
can labor or lessen its reward.-Fron

Among the congressional proceedings the
14th inst, observe that Mr.. Sawyer offered
luton which adopted calling for a report as to
the expediency of erecting custom house and post
Office at Oshkosh.
Although personally pretty well used
to disappointments, it is something new
and therefore the more severe, to be dis
appointed by Mr.. Sawyer in his promis-
es to our community. IF the above men
toned resolution had said Manitowoc in
place of Oshkosh we should at least have
seen an earnest of trying to comply, but
to propose Oshkosh in place of Manito-
VOC for custom house, is rather strong
for quiet and silent submission We shall
express our views more fully hereafter.
