Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1874-11-05

out; "The Southern outrage business
didn't pay well in Ohio and Indiana,
did ity" That is all the response
that can be evoked from the
breast OF a man who steps out Of the Repub-
lican party over night to sleep with the DEM
ocratic party that claps and alplauds it now.
When colored man, postal-car clerk, Is
stopped upon the train and murdered in cold
blood; when Federal officers in Arkansas are
compelled by force to resign their offices upon
pledge that they shall be protected in
their lives, and are then brutally murdered,
and it sfound that the Democratic party has
gone so far in this work that even the cry Of
their blood did not arouse them, the same in
dependent journal yesterday cries out The
bloodyshirt cry" Let me read what it said
yesterday: There Is a sudden calm In the
Southern-outrage business, and the Republi-
can organs are, one after another, giving their
whole attention to the third term business
trying TO turn us of on the third term. The
impression seems to be that the third-term
project hurt the Republicans good deal more
than the "bloody- shirt" yelling did the DEM
ocrats. Do you remember how, fifteen years
ago, they cried out Bleeding Kansas" and
ridiculed the Ay that came up to the ears Of
the country from the settlers upon the plains
OF Kansas, and called it Bleeding Kansasy
Does not this sound good deal like it,
"bloody shirt" yell Of murdered fellow-citi-
zens, clothed by the Constitution with every
right that you and haveg
Let them not attempt to turn us away with
their idle talk about the third term; | will tell
them where the third term nonsense came
from. 1t came from their allies down South,
from that part Of the Democratic party which
has come up to the support Of the party with
all the sins of the rebellion upon its heart
and hands. Let me read you from their news
papers what they say about it: The first
thing Grants friends know they will see all
the white people in the South advocating him
for the third term. There is one thing certain,
more Grant, the South will jump at the latter.
All the dangers OF Imperialism, C@sarism,
ETC., shrink into insignitcance compared to
the continuation OF the unbearable negroism
right here among us. We will risk Grant an
other term If he will give us rest from the
Unfortunately irrepressible negro That is
the voice of that party in the South without
whose help the Democracy of the North is as
helpless as a paralytic. That is the party at
| the South which, with the help of the Democ-
| racy of the North, Is to choose the next Speak
er of the House of Representatives and make
the next Committee upon Southern Claims
and Southern Outrages, with seventeen Con-
federate officers there to make 1t out of, ready
to take Grant for third term II they thought
| they could scducc him to their purposes.
| This was before the little rebellion that was
| got up in New Orleans the other day. Since
| they found by that experiment that the line
| OF Buchanans could not be recruited out Of
| Republican ranks, you have heard never a
| word from that quarter since about third
term,
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1874-11-05
The South Still for Secession.

The Southern white people are dsloya
| to the Union. The pretense THAT they re-
spect and revere the American flag is a
| miserable sham. Penn yielded to Fed
cral troops because he dared not oppose
force to force. 1t follows that the sym
patty lavished upon Southern White
League Democrats by the Northern peo-
pie, on the theory that they war only
upon so-called carpet-bag State govern
ments, is misplaced. The Southern plan
is to overthrow the State governments,
with view ultimately to overthrow the
Union. To regard the Southern situa-
ton from any other standpoint is to be
| guled by a fatal delusion. And why did
the South wish in 1851 to destroy the
Union? Merely because the Union
would not extend the institution of
slavery into new territory. The cause
of dis1ovalty at the South is now, as it
was in 1861, the desire to establish the
| doctrine of property in man. Southern
| White League Democrats hate the Amer
lean flag because it means equal rights
to black and white alike, because it
means freedom of speech and politica-
action. Every White League organizal
| ton at the South is therefore a concerted
movement not merely to elevate Dem
ocrats to power in State, but to haul
down the flag of the stars and stripes
and to raise in its place the flag Of the
stars and bars, and that flag means
slavery. Slavery was the cornerstone
of the rebel Confederacy, and it is to a
| restoration of the institution of slavery
| that the efforts of the Southern Democ-
| racy are all directed to-day as much as
they were directed to its extension dur
| ing the period from 1850 to 1865. South
ern Democratic journals do not hesitate
| to declare that nothing but the weakness
| of the South as compared with the
strength of the North prevents new
secession movement. Witness the fol-
lowing from the New Iberia (La) Sugar.
6owl:
| 1t Is high time the South should be plain and
honest in her language toward the North, and
cease this silly twaddle about Northern senti-
| ment. We must work out our own salvation.
! and depend no longer upon the broken reed OF
Northern friendship.
The South has the same moral right to force
| her peculiar views upon the North the latter
| has to force hers upon u.s. The only difference
| is the North is strong and the South is weak;
but that is no reason why we should not think as
| we please and say what we think. The whole
question is purely one OF interest; and y pe
Mnkthe South aooutd better herself by another
| secession tet as then JedrfeSsty ddD0cdS a.
| There are, however, other objects of higher i'm
portance and more easily obtained at present,
| and for these we should contend with all our
might. We befieue, nevertheless, that before an
| other decade the tleO great sections of tie Union
| lcW be quietly and c0ntentedfy making history
| for themselves under separate governments.
The other objects more easily OBJ
tanned at present" are the possession of
State governments; the grand ultimate
object is the establishment of the Con.
federacy, based on African slavery

Hale County. Sept. 20, 1874.
Mr.. Stringfcllow lives about nine miles
from Grcensborough, has been Repub-
lican leader, bold in the expression Of his
views, and while the Ku-Klux were SO
busy a year ago suffered numerous out
RACES at their hands, being Obliged to
hide continually. He taught school of
negroes, and for this otlense his school
house was burned Recently the White
Leaguers began to give him repetition
of his experience with the Ku-Klux. On
the night of the 18th ult. he was visited
by about fifteen of the outlaws. They
reached his house about midnight. While
the rest Of the party concealed them
selves in the vicinity one of them went
to the door and, calling Stringfcllow from
his bed, got him, under the pretcxt that
his aid was needed by a distressed trav-
eler, out of the house and into the am
buscade. Stringfellow went out, accom-
panied by his colored boy. On going
about 100 yards from the house String
