THE FACTS MUST COME OUT.

iHE Fd'fIS -n Ool COME OUI.
The Distress want OF work, the de-
spair which opprcsscs tho working
populations, demand for them the SYM
pathy Of every honest heart.
When we know that all these evils
are the direct result Of the infamous
policy of the Radical negro party, It
causes the most intense feeling of hos
tility against the authors Of so much
misery.
II we could look into the households
of labor in all parts of the country and
witness the suffering that has taken
up its abode in these families which
the Radical negro party has produced,
II would be indeed the scvercst trial of
moderation and forbcarance.
From Grant down, or up, TO the
thieves and corruptionists who have
plundercd the industry of the country
by jobs, schemes, and every known
process OF dishonesty, in every depart
ment Of public service and expenditure
Of the money Of the people, with them
luxury has grown fat, while labor has
hardly bread enough and to spare.
Thedayi of reckoning and retribution
will come.
The "Union League" and its loydi
oppressos Of the people men who are
rioting in the cash made out of Ashoddy
contracts" and the patronage which
such loyalty has absorbed men who
have luvished money in ''banquets" and
dinners and suppefs on every tool off
the Radical negro party, who has had
access to Grant by means Of the gifts
he brought, as the surest Introduction
to the favor Of the gift-taking imbccile
who disgraces the title he assumes
this league Of union between the scoffers
and deridcrs of the honest hungry
white laborer of this city must yet
give an account of its doings.
The time is coming for this reckoning
The people win demand IL. In the
hour of supreme suffering produced by
these scorneir and these traducers Of
the Democratic party, and their cash
support Of the Radical negro party,
this 'league" Of shoddy loyalists must
answer TO an offended and a destitute
people who are in every respect more
truly patriotic than these men who
have laughed at them over the brilliant
banquets which shoddy loyalty has
given to Radical conspirators, and the
black rufiians whom they have pam
pered for their votes to opprcss the
white men Of the country.
Yes, we say, that time will come.
The stolen money, the bribes, under
the name Of contracts for Government
service" must be accounted for.
The "Credit Mobilier'' plumber, the
cash paid for legislation, the @allow-
ances," the extra compensation. the
contracts" the money paid for "ad.-
vertising,p the contributions out of
incidental expenses the "commis-
sions" the fees" the secret service
fund, "thc divics," the ''ring plundcr,
the 'slowest bidder'dodge, the "carpct-
bag cxtortion, the reconstructed
estate bonds" the Federal Treasury
plumber of merchants by spies and in
formers, the Lcet storehousc "ordersn
the public buildings, post Office, forts,
navy yards, mail contracts, all these
must be examined into and the peoples
money refunded that has been ''absorb-
ed by loyalists as the means used by
the Radical negro party to debauch
and corrupt.
The Radical party is very anxious
to know what is TO be the action of the
Democracy in the next Congress.
That party will find out when acom-
mittees OF investigation" begin their
work. Preeedents have been set by
the loyalists Of sending men TO forts
for expressing honest opinions. IL may
bc that these curses, "like chickens,
may come home to roost.n lie who
can tell and won't tell, must be made
to tell how the peoples money was
squandered
We hope the next Congress will not
appropriate one cent to 'the Govern
ment" till thorough investigation is
made into the infamous schemes of
plunder which have been the chief sup
port Of tho Radical negro party, and It's
reliance for 'election fraud and '.fillse
returns" and the oppression of the
white race in the South.
The facts must come out. Tho idle
laborer Of the country demands it, Get
ready to answer.-Phaadeiphid Com
