DEMOCRACY VS.. IMPERIALISM

Two thousand years ago Cesar crossed
the Rubicon to crush Democracy in
Rome and fell in the forum on the Ides
of March by the dagger of Brutus. We
too have a Caesar who wishes to crush
Democracy in America. The ballot to-
day is the dagger of Brutus; and the
American Ceser will fall in the capitol
on the Ides of November.

A Graphic Picture.

Fx-Gov. Henry A. Wise, in a
letter declining an invitation to ad-
dress a Grant and Wilson ratifica-
ton meeting at Alexandria, Va,
gave the following graphic picture
of the Liberal Democratic party:
J" 1t is entirely unfit for me to act
with any political party at the pres
cut attitude OF affairs. This have
said--that cannot and will not
act with the so-called Liberal Re-
publcans. They are too liberal,
1hey are 50 loose as to have no
principles, and were ready to adopt
the worst, as we'll as the best, to
suit the birds Of every feather that
met together In the halls at Cincln-
nati and Baltimore. z'hey have,
IN strange confusion, mingled with
white spirits and grey, 50 that the
party is o mongrcl, and would be
all things to all men,

Tie Thieves 10. Greeley.

A A"Cl.arpaqnack" Journal intlis
State feels very much elevated in
feeling ever the statement that Gov.
Yarmouth, OF Louisiana, has come
ont for Greeley. When it is re-
mcmbcred tllat he is tie same car
pet.bag Governor, whom the entire
Democratic press of the country
have denounced as q "thief" Tor the
last two years, some idea of the ex.
pertness with which the Dcmoc-
racy, as represented by this Journal
and it is representative one
can 90 into the "dirt-cating" bust
ress, may be gathered. 1t is said
that under his administration,
Louisiana las been loaded with a
debt Of twenty million dollars. In
view Of this fact, it is cmincntly
proper that he should support the
candidate whom the Tammany
thieves of New York are so well
pleased with. Greeley is peculiarly
the choice of the thieves.

The New York F'renan's
Jo0mf', like the Chicago Times:
remains firm to its Democracy and
cannot digest the Greeley nomina-
ton. On that head it says; "Om
road is straight before us. The nom-
ination of Greeley at Baltimore by
a packed and non-deliberative body
will be the formal dissolution Of the
Democratic party, With its disso-
luton there perishes the last party
that ever protessed fidelity to law,
to the Constitution or to treaty
faith given. There remains for us,
then, only mobs. Radical Grant
ties and radical Greeloyites! Re-
duced to this, bayoncts are our only
protection. Grant has, at least, the
education and bearing Of Q soldier.
Greeley knows only the discipline
Of a broomstick."

The flendlSh outrageS commltteu
BY the ISu Klux Klans ofthe South
will never be fully revealed in al
tileir narrowing details. When il i
estimated tlat since the close oftht
rebellion, not less than t'renty-tire'
Moasa,d persons, black ard white
have been scourged, banished, ol
/ murdered by this order, some idea
may Ike gathered Of It's widespread
and barbauus character. Its vic
tins were always Republicans, dis
loyalty to tie Government being
tie standard oi exemption. Dem
ecrats were heyer molestcl. Tie
passage anl enforcement ot the ku
l>lnx act, PIT al end to these QUIZ
rages, AID gave peace and protec-
ton to tie infested districts. Peace
and harmony now reign m the

Graft. Should lie be defeated in
tie c,iIlii,g election, is there not
every siga to Indicate that this or
ganjzatiun will he revived, and its
past outlages he repeated over
agaiy ? The reason why the South
were 50 prompt 10 endorse tie nom
ilatiou d Greeley, was not because
they experienced a chaIge in their
principles, but because they sup
posed tlat lie could be tie most
readily moulded to their wishes. In
tile speech OF Ian Voorhees, tie
otler day, accepting the noml; alton
tnr 10. gress, rendered him by the
sixth District il Indiana. he de-
noucei bitterly the course Of the
Administration towards the South,
ard said tie south had urged tie
aemiA atiuu Of Greeley, believing
tlsat His election would secure them
peace aid relief from the outrages
which had been kcared upol them.
He Hoped that the daSt h14es Of
he .So0th woaH be rYali-e3, and
peace and prosperity would return
again, as dsT~@. In other words,
Greeley, il elected, would stand
pledged to curry oM tie cic'cs a1'd
poljry g'Me SoNth. This tley rely
Oh, ard call ior Republicans through
ont the country to assist them to, by
f1rsakiltg their principles ard stand
arl-beapr, ard voting for Greeley.
No good Republican can become
party to 50 great a wrong. NO
good Republican, or sincere lover
ot'lis country and the best interests
OF humanity, wi lever vote to re-
store to tile South, that which weat
down in tie b ood and carnage Of
the rebellion, the spirit of which
still exists in the hearts of the sup
pressed ku klux and their
sympatliizcrs. III such an event,
the blood Of the loyal thousands
now enriching Southern soil would
have been shed in vain. Though
the South may never favor the re-
enslaycment Of the negro. yet they
would take away from him the
elective franchise. The "bcst hopes"
Of the South are centered in the de-
sire Of having restored unto them
the aristocracy Of caste and condi-
ton, which would result in a yir-
tual cnslavement of the poor, both
white and black. No good Re
or citizen, will consent to
vote for any man for President,
who, in tie most remote degree, ia
vors such q policy.
