ton. He tells them that lt would be sui
eide 10 make independent nominations
Aud, In addition, thoeo who were whipped In
the late war are willing TO sacrifice every
thing 10 elect Mr.. Greeley, or rather to defeat
the man who whipped them back Into the
Union.
Mr.. Greeley's strength with this class Is re-
garded by como Of our politicians with con.
Siderable surprise. There Is really nothing
surprlslng or wonderful In II. The brains OF
the Democratic party are In the South now
az they certainly were before the war. Inc
statesmen and politicians oil that section see
that IL Is utterly Impossible TO elect a
Northern or Western Democrat that the
election oi asRepubllcan next November Is
Inevitable In selecting Mr. Greeley they
are DONG tue oest mat 'ney can 40 under
the circumstances. lhey sec very clearly
that his success would, In the end, have the
effect OF restoring them 10 power. II would
be only a qucstlou of a few years. They see
that under him The eolored people would be
plaeed entirely AT their mercy, that thew
could indulge their Ku-Klur propensitIos 70
their hearts content under the mild and gen
tie reign Of the Chappaqua philosopher.
The Northern Democrats take an entirely
different view Of the situation. The South Is
nst Of so much Importance to them now as II
was before the war. The aSceudancy Of the
colored vote In the Southern States has de-
stroyed their hopos OF being able TO control
that section In the future. In dnte-Oellun
days the Northern Democracy truckled 10
and allowed itself 10 bs led by the South.
They accepted free trade at It's dlctatlon; In
variably allowed Ii TO name Its candidates
and write Its platforms. All this has been
changed. Tho Democratic party North has
little In common now with It's Southern wing.
The growth Of the West during the last ten
years has thrown tho balance Of power In
another direction. Southern Democracy, with
It's lost cause ideas aud thirst for vengeance,
hss s.ao'ae a dead weight, especially as II Is
