SQUELCH 1T.

France has twice literally iloated in
sea of blood by tolerating in her bosom
the Red Republicans and Communist ele-
ments. 1t is now stated that the French
Communists in New York have resolved
to celebrate the anniversary of the Paris
Commune, by a parade, banquet and
ball. This thing ought not to be toler-
ated in New York city or anywhere else
in this country. While we are in favor
of universal freedom OF conscience IN re-
ligion and rational political sentiment,
we most heartily condemn the principle
of fostering incendiarism in the national
metropolis. Virginia Chronicle.
Squelch it, Ell! What is sit and what
do you mean by "squelch?" Now do
not propose to defend incendiarism,
agrarianism or any other of the many
'isms, that the Red Republicans and
Communists Of France may choose to af-
feet. but do propose to defend liberty OF
speech, conscience and person. Ii,
therefore, a number of political refugees
choose to celebrate an anniversary con-
nected with their own history, we do not
see how they can be lawfully
"squelched," whatever that may be.
This squelching business has been pc.
culiarly the property of tyrants and would
be a very dangerous one, for q republic
which guarantees liberty of speech and
PERSON to all Corners to enter upon.
True these Communists are dangerous
element, and for that very reason need
to be treated with wisdom, but that can
not be predicated of the "squelching',
process. The true mode of sub1uing
them is by kindness and forbearance,
and affording them an opportunity OF
earning decent livelihood in return for
their labor. A hungry belly is not to be
"suuelched, and will make its owner
such desperate, dangerous and reckless
character, that it will not be easy to
squelch him. A starving population is
always a dangerous one, and ready to
listen to insidious counsels of any
smooth tongued villain. But the way to
counteract the advice of such rascals is
to give the wretched recipients the means
of earning their bread. That is the true
mode to squelch the commune and its
promoters. When there ceases to be
hungry destitute multitude in New York,
then that will be the last Of the COM
mune. But while ten thousand SILVER
ing, hungry and almost naked wretches
are being fed from the public soup
kitchens. then you will hear of the COM
mune. Famine and restitution are the
supporters of the throne upon which the
evil spirit sits. Take them away he falls
helpless, and that is the true and only
way to "squelch it, The Virginia
Chronicles ideas of the process will bear
revision

A CONVENTION will be held at Raleigh,
North Carolina, some time during this
month, to discuss the immigration ques.
ton, and, if possible, attract eniigrants
southwark. The idea is a good one, and
we hope some substantial benefits may
come of it, but our Southern friends
should recolect that the workingman
and the skilled mechanic will never set
tie in that section until the old fudal no.
tons that labor is disgrace and idleness
honorable and aristocratic are aban-
doned. That Is the trouble with the
South. A Northern man who visited
Virginia short time ago put the whole
case in nut shell when he told the
story which is now floating through our
exchanges, that every other white male
citizen he met had gun on his shoulder
and dog at his heels. - Virginia En-
terprise.
Yes, and that is like many other false
hoods that have been floating through
the exchanges, and with about the same
foundation, and that is willful and ma
lignant Misrepresentation. The truth is
that since the war the people have been so
robbed that they have not had the means
or heart to attempt any improvements.
But as to work; they have all had to work
men, women and children-or strave.
That was the alternative, and all know
which was taken. We will however,
tell you, Mr., Enterprise, that the main
reason that has kept migration from
those States, is that they have been ruled
by the ignorant negroes, and worse than
that, by the white carpet-baggers. This
precious pair SO raised the taxes in the
two Carolinas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mis-
sssippi and Florida that it amounted to
and was actual coniiscation, and that in
deed was the ayowed object, as was an
nounced in the Legislatures of Texas,
Florida, Louisiana and other States, and
that is an admitted fact. But as to Texas,
which suffered less than any other South
ern State from these evils, q constant
stream Of the most valuable class of I'M
grants has flowed from Europe. There,
in consequence of the greater numbers
Of the white population, it was not pos
sible to ruin it rs rapidly as the other
States, though the carpet.baggers did the
best they could, as the villaiaous Davis
and his coadjutors can testify. No, Mr..
Enterprise, the reason why white emf
grants do not like to 60 to these States
is because they would be ruled and their
property be at the mercy of a mass of
ignorant negroes. True, no doubt, that
the majority of the latter intend to do
the best they can, but they are SO easily
made the tools and dupes OF the rascally
white men, that they cannot be de-.
pended upon to manage the affairs of
commonwealth. When to these causes
you add the enormous burden of tax
alton, it will be be seen at once that these
States are excellent places for white peo-
pie to emigrate from instead of settling
in them. The truth is that if the Re-
publican party had desired to create an
other Ashantee or Dahomey in the fairest
portions of the American continent, they
could not have taken a more direct
course than it has, and this policy was
we'll supplemented by the dense stupid
ity and blindness of its Democratic op-
ponents.

STREAMING AT A GNAT.

1t is really amusing to see the straits
to which the defenders of the course Of
the administration in Louisiana matter
are seduced. Here is de facto govern
ment, which no one dares to say had a
color Of title, declared legal by a corrupt,
thieving, swindling. scoundrel of a
Judge. The infamous venality of this
disgrace to the American bar and bench
is equally confessed. 1t is also conceded
that the judicial proceedings upon which
the action of Grant was predicted were
utterly void and illegal. Yet what do
these wseacres say now after Grant has
installed this bogus government at the
point of federal bayone,s. Why this9
We admit that Dureil, the United States
Judge, was an unmitigated scoundrel,
that all his proceedings were void and
illegal, that Grant had no right to force
this Judicial Government on Louisiana;
but he did so. and now he can't interfere
any more, for that would be an invasion
of the reserved rights of the States.
Well, what was the first interference?
Was it not an invasion also? Yes, but
he was wrong then, and he don't want
to repeat his mistake. According to
this theory, burglar should not break
into your house because that is an in
vasion Of your rights Of property, but if
he should, and you are not stout enough
to kick him out, policeman could not
follow and arrest him because that would
also be an invasion of your rights. That
is in just about the position these folks
have got themselves. They sent their
man in and it was wrong, but now they
can't enter and pull him ont, because
that would be wrong also. If they now
stand so much upon the question of law
full rights, would it not have been little
more decent to have thought of that long
before this late date? They have swal-
lowed nine years violation of the rights
they now pretend to respect, one would
think they could stlnd another dose.
