MARTIN FRIEDMAN.
AUDITOR Of Dubois County
December 18Th, 1870.
The Daily state journal. [volume] (Alexandria, Va.) 1868-1874, 1871-03-24

The report of the committee of the SEN
ate Republican caucus to that body on
Southern affairs gives the President Mill
tary power to repress disorders in the
South, without waiting for requisition,
and furnishes an elaborate code for the
trial of Ku-klux in the United States
courts. The backbone of the whole is
that all jurors are obliged to take the IRON
clad oath, and that when outrages are COM
mitted by unknown gangs, the accruing
damages may be assessed on the counties
in which they occur. Those ruffians who
are detected are also made liable for the
outrages of those who escape. This is
stringent legislation. But the evil de-
mands repression at any price and as
Cancellation has not checked and some mod
crate legislation has not depressed crime
equally obnoxious on political, Industrial
and humanitarian grounds, it becomes ne
cessary to find an effectual preventive.
The Daily state journal. [volume] (Alexandria, Va.) 1868-1874, 1871-03-24

PROBABLY if North Carolina had more
and better educational facilities she would
have fewer Ku-Klux. The library of her
State university, for instance, has been &C.
cumulating ever since 1889, and is now by
far the largest in the State, yet it contains
only seven thousand volumes, of which
two thousand are Patent Office reports
and other documents of an official char
acter, while large portion of the re-
mainder are Anticipated textbooks which
have gone into complete disuse. She now
appeals to the North for assistance 10 re-
plenishing the scant shelves in her chief
institution but as to whether books or
bayonets are most needed just at present
there is great difference of opinion. As
general thing, however, it is safe to con-
clude that when the marauder is at home
the schoolmaster is abroad, and no better
evidence of her need of knowledge can be
afforded than the lawlessness under which
she at present suffers. We are, therefore,
in favor of the books.

The REPORT of the San Domingo Com
missioners will evidently put matters in
Washington in very peculiar shape. 1t
is affirmed that even Mr.. Summers warm
friend, DIR. Howe, is more strongly in favor
of annexation than is Mr.. Wade. The
report of the commissioners, if everything
proves favorable, will be strongly infuen-
tial, as furnishing the most reliable data
to be obtained from the island in ques-
ton. The argument must, therefore, be
shifted to other grounds, or opposition
abandoned. Mr.. Sumner is reported to
now say that the islands of the Antilles
are designed by Providence as the place
where the colored people may establish a
republic of their own, and work out their
destiny by themselves. This is what may
be termed high moral ground. 1t will be
a curious problem to study-a Senator
arguing high moral considerations in favor
of policy toward which he is impelled
by considerations of strong personal hes
tilitv.
The Daily state journal. [volume] (Alexandria, Va.) 1868-1874, 1871-03-24


JUST now while Mr.. Sumner is 10 full
cry against the annexation Of San Domin-
go we have intelligence from that pet child
of his-Alaska. 1t will be remembered
that he described Alaska as an exceedingly
desirable acqusition-and referred in or
nate phrase to the grandeur of its scenery
the enterprise of its inhabitants, the balm
mess of its climate and the productiveness
OF its waters. 1t is needless to say that the
roseate pictures presented were far above
the reality. Its trade has steadily declined
since we gained possession, and we are
spending about one hundred thousand dol
lars year on that forsaken region more
than we get, or are ever likely to receive.
Mr.. Sumner is always exactly wrong on
the territorial question.
The Daily state journal. [volume] (Alexandria, Va.) 1868-1874, 1871-03-24

DISPATCHES from Pennsylvania are to
the effect that "there is no immediate pros
pect Of a settlement of the coal difficulty !"
Curiously enough, as the days of the
struggle lengthen, the price Of coal recedes.
At the beginning of the struggle, such
terrible. stories were told relative to the
ultimate "coal famine" that dealers raised
the price much higher than the public
deemed fair. The result is that the demand
for coal has been exceedingly light, and
the trade almost at stand-still. Two
weeks ago Goals brought $l2 and $14 per
ton. Now any quantity can be purchased
at $40 per ton.

DAVIS & Co.'S NURsERIEs.--We have
received the descriptive catalogue of Frank
lin Davis & Co., of Richmond The cata-
logue is printed in splendid style, and
illustrated with cuts of the standard
fruits, which look tempting enough to in
duce everybody who has square rod Of
ground to buy and plant trees and vines
The lists of fruit are very extensive, and
cover every variety of merit, especially in
such as are adapted to the South. Full
instructions for planting and cultivating
are also given. The stock of Messrs.
Davis & Co. is well grown, and may be
relied upon as true to name. They have
been engaged in growing trees for twenty
years in Virginia, and have acquired an
enviable reputation not only in this State,
but all over the country. We can con-
fideutly commend them to our readers as
reliable and honorable dealers. We re-
peat now our earnest advice to all, to set
out trees, vines, and fruit-bearing plants,
as sacred duty, which performed, will
become a constant source of pleasure.

A CHANGE OF IDEAs.-The sympathy
of the Democracy for Mr.. Sumner is gush-
ing in the extreme, but it partakes of the
nature of that smile which has become his.
torical because it deceived Bill Nyo. 1t is
denied that Bully Brooks, of South Carroll
ma, ever assaulted him 10 the Senate, or
that be was ever considered more of a
knave than fool. In fact, the Democrats
now admit that Sumner is an honest man.
and deserves to be honored by the Ameri-
can people, particularly when he slashes
away at the administration Of President
Grant. The prospect, is that when the
Senator comes to disappoint them, they will
recover their old ideas and declare that
Brooks ought to have killed him, and that
he has never been in his right mind since
he escaped assassination in the Senate.
Look out for just such change as this,
and that very soon, too.

The New York Independent reiterates
what has been said frequently in these
columns "The Republican party is
above men. Its leaders may quarrel, as
they have done before. Some of them
may even go over to the enemy, as others
have done. But, with or without leaders,
the principles of the Republican party
must prevail For that party carries more
than the bark that bore Caesar and his
fortunes 1t carries the fate of civilization
on this Western continent" The sooner
the little political Peddlugtons realize the
truth of the above the better for them.
selves and the country.
