Our correspondent says thasia Compromise
is inevitable. Certainly; but not any Com
promise i&hfch leads the white people into
political afaliati6on With the Republican
party. We. 60 just. as far as the Republic
cans go, in acknowledging the cfyil q and ll1,pr olti t:
ical equality Of all classes Of citizens We
accept the constitution With It's amendments,
as frankly as the, fercest Radical can do,
But we donot propose to becomelR epubli-
cans. for ALI We do not propose to
give in Dur adhesloh;toi that spirit of GEN.
'traahzatioln,, and' Of encroachment upon the
domain OF local self-government which is the
essence Of Radlcalism. We do notpropose
to give in. our adhesion to Woman Suffrage,
or to Internationalism and the other .:isms'"
which the ultracRadieals proclaim as the
final aim Of their party. And yet. we deem
"A Compromise inevitable; such a Oompro-
mise dis is involved IN helping the best foi
the Republicans to elect the best members
of their party, 'wa1thelrever'tt they give us an OPP
portunity OF doing SO; such a Compromise
as is implied in leaving Democracy 10 the
background, and devotipg all our time and
energy TO- the election Of honest and capa-
BILE men, whatever their. politics, their place
-of nativity, or the color OF their skin.
Our correspondent, wetakeit, isa sensible,
practical MAJ. He knows that to rely on
newspapers to DO allthe pablo work ie as idle
as to play iollow-my-leader with a legion OF
venerable politicians" The newspapers can
make suggestions and enforce arguments.
They can. encourage the whole people by
showing each section OF the State what the
rest of the Slate is doing. But the force
which wins :elections and :accomplishes
political revolutions comes from the people
alone.adThe new. fabric must be .builtiur
from the ground, and, for all that weiknow,
the fist stone may be laidiin Colteton Coun'
