Up to the day Of the Mississippi election
the Administration journals were predicting
a bloody time at the polls in that State.
They had positive proof that the negroes
were to be foreibly driven from the polls.
Now that the election passed without so
much as a quarrel of any kind, and the me-
groes voted without molestation, the same
journals declare that the unexpected quiet
was produced by an elaborate system of ter
rorism which kept the negroes from the polls
If there had been bloodshed, it would have
been sure proof Of Ku-Klux. AS there was
no bloodshed, all the more proof of Ku. Klux
argue the grinders. They are bound to have
their way, no matter what the facts are-Ne,e

A war against rings has been going on in
this country for many years, but corruption
has become so general that the efforts in be-
half of reform have been almost barren in re-
suits. There are rings on all sides, and in
the interests of all parties. There are ma
tional rings, State rings, county rings and
municipal rings. There will be no real peace
or purity until they are put down, but how to
put them down is the question. The patriot
who devises a method of doing so will entitle
himself to the plaudits Of the whole country.

prosperity of trade depends on the condition
of the classes who are engaged in production.
In the United States the agricultural class of
producers far surpass in importance any of
the others. If we can show that the condi-
ton of the farmers and planters is an improv-
ing one it will follow that o corresponding
improvement will before long be manifest in
the general trade of the country.
We commend the above, clipped from the
New York Tribune, as worthy the serious con-

Lieut. Gen. Stephen d. Lee, of the late
Confederate army, who so ably commanded
Gen. Jackson's Artillery at the second battle
of Manassas, who SO greatly distinguished him
self in the repulse of Gen. Sherman's army
ut Chicasaw Bayou, near vicksburg. and who
commanded a corps at the siege of Atlanta,
is now on visit to New Orleans, stopping at
the St. Charles Hotel. Though comparatively
q young man, he was one Of the most prop1is-
ing and distinguished officers in the Confed-
crate army. We bespeak for him, at the
hands of our citizens, those courtesies to which
his high character as gentleman and bril-
liant career as soldier entitle him.

National Republican., 1875-07-22

THE socalled Independent Press has not
only frightened a certain class of weak
kneed Republicans from the path of loyal
duty to the party, but boasts of its achieve
ment In other words, having succeeded
in injuring the Republican party to some
extent, they pipe their notes of victory in
the highest tune of exultation. For ex-
ample, the Philadelphia Times, probably
the most respectable-if such comparison
is admissible in this connection-of the
whole gang, has this to say in answer to a
recent article in these columns on this sub
ject:
"a Washington journal, in late lecture to
certain large class of Republicans on the sub
ject, as we may state it, Of their lack of cour-
age to meet the requirements and duties of
their political position, attributes their delin-
Quencies and derelictions to their fear Of the
iHdepeHdent press. 1t admits that this fear
had marked effect upon Congress last win
ter, and that it now has upon the action of the
heads of Departments; and 1t attributes the
objections lately raised against assessing the
Government employees for election purposes
to the influence Of the Independents and Lib
erals, whom it literally vilifies and abuses
THE REPUBLICAN is evidently alarmed at
these evidences of the growing power of the
independent press, and the corresponding de-
cadence and foreshadowed doom of the once
potent party organs. We hail its complaints
as 8 cheering proof of what the independent
press has already accomplished, and as a still
more cheering promise Of what it will effect in
the future"
How proud the recreants to whom this
singing paragraph alludes must feel to
read such an indictment of their trucking
and inane fears. But the towards de-
serve it. The true men of the party are
beginning to understand that the only way
TO preserve its integrity is to treat those
who are not for US as against US.
National Republican., 1875-07-22
INCIDENCE AND INDUSTRY IN THE
SOUTH.

The following paragraph from the Rich
mond State Journal, now going the rounds
of the press, has attracted considerable at
tention and comment:
"When the South begins to weave and spin
Gotten which grows in her fields, then, in
deed, viii her conquest of the North be COM
plete. The erection Of cotton factories in the
South is an advance in her interests so sig
nihcant that 1t may be marked as an epoch in
her history. She has a cheaper labor than the
North can possibly possess. She has the
means of cheaper living than any other part
of the country, and when she begins to manu-
facture cotton goods, and at the same time
engage In the iron business, as Virginia is now
rapidly doing, we will be prosperous indeed"
There is catch-penny generality in this
statement which attracts the unthinking
mind, and it passes current as the utter
ance of wisdom. OF course it is true,
every word OF it; but it is of that kind of
truth which is discoursging unless &C.
companied by practical suggestion for
the remedy of existing difficulties. 1t is,
in fact, the old loafing cry of the South:
'fWsit wait we have boundless resources,
"and when they are developed we viii be
comfortable, and wealth will come to us
without exertion." Parson Brownlow,
in his blunt way, takes something like
this view Of the case, and comments in the
Knoxville Chronicle upon the Journals
declaration as follows: .... ...s
''The above statement of advantages pos-
sessed by the South for manufacturing is true,
with some qualifications. But the idea so
prevalent is that all that Is needed to make
the South prosperous is q few million of
brick shaped into walls, smoke-staeks and
machinery about every town and city, Manu-
featuring supports population and gives profit.
able employment to capital; but It Is also
true that, with rare exceptional localities, It
JolIocs population. The South need not sit
patiently with folded hands, waiting for
spindles and the roar Of iron mills as her only
hope Of her deliverance. She is losing time
BY such policy. Sc long rs she has sedge-
helds, and farms full of stumps and briars
and .brush, and thousands Of acres half
titled, she may wait In vain for manufac-
tories to bring her relief" - =
The Parson might have added that the
sedge-felds and briar patches will be con.
tinued until the Southern people learn the
lesson of their utter dependence upon the
laboring classes. The old generation of
slaye-owners is fast dying out; but the sins
of the fathers are visited upon the sons,
and the custom of deprecsting manual
labor as beneath their dignity is still up.
National Republican., 1875-07-22

THE unexpected arrival of the President
yesterday, followed as it was by an extra
ordinary meeting of the Cabinet gave rise
to many sensational speculations. among
the most unfounded of which is statement
that Secretary Delsno's case was under
consideration. There is the best authority
for the assertion that this subject was not
alluded to. Further, that no change in
the administration of the Interior Depart
ment is likely to occur for some time.
The Venezuelan troubles were discussed.
but no new features were revealed. 1t is
safe to assert however, that no decision
has been reached which contemplates the
withdrawal of the United States Minister
to that Government.
The Cuban question was also alluded to,
but nothing authoritative will be made
public at present relative to the conclusions
arrived at.
Otherwise the meeting was without i'm
portant public interest.
National Republican., 1875-07-22

THE Chicago Tribune admits that the
six ''white gentlemen" who drove a col,
ored fellow passenger out of q frst-class
car on Georgia railroad by splitting upon
him and squirting water over him from
their dirty mouths were "simply carrying
out the spirit of Gen. John S. Preston's
recent Grafton. Comparatively harmless
as this rude act was it is nevertheless a
certain indication of the deep-seated an.
tipathy of the better classes of the so-called
intelligent leaders of the South against the
blacks-an antipathy which leads them to
sympathize more or less directly with the
turbulent fanatics" who are guilty of Ku.
Klux and White League murders. In
short, their hatred of the negro as free
'fellow-citizen is so rabid that, while they
may deprecate his assassination, they are
not over jealous in procuring the punish
ment of his assassin.
National Republican., 1875-07-22

held as q prerequisite of social standing.
Coupled with this is the inclination to
tyrannize over those who do labor, and
neglect to provide for their Advancement.
In the Northern States, where the lsboring
masses have long enjoyed the right Of suf-
frage. laws are in vogue for the protection
OF artisans and mechanics and common
lsborers as well In fact, the politicians
and law makers of that section both fear
and respect the working people, and have
consequently made study of thsir needs.
In the South, as we have proven, the
contrary Is the esse. Without fear OF their
ballots or respect for their manhood, the
so-called Intelligent classes" have hereto
fore ruled, and are now attempting to rule,
the lsboring people of their respective To-
calities with sole regard to their own
selfish benefit. Force and violence sup
plies the place of reason and argument.
The courts oftentimes fail to mete out JUS
tce to the poor claimant. Public
education is neglected, and instead of en-
couragement, the poorer and working
classes receive condescending kicks and
curses at the hands of domineering aristo-
Gratis The ballot box Is not sacred from
fraud and the free exercise Of the rights of
citizenship is limited to the self-selected
few. The consequence ef all this is dis
turbed condition of affairs which repells
emigration. It also retards the develop
ment of natural resources, and has kept
the South back half century behind the
more rapidly developing North. 1t has,
in short, fastened upon the Southern people
the Gripping incubus of Democratic here
sizes and serves to foster and keep alive the
exploded fallacies which led them into the
war. Until q radical and almost revolu-
tionarY change takes place, we may expect
to see paragraphs like the foregoing float
ing about as this one is. Until the labor
problem is settled by the utter abandon
ment of old-time customs and Democratic
traditions, the South will continue to cry
"Wait wait |" As soon, however, as this
change is effected, the sedge-felds and briar-
patches will disappear. acres OF bricks
shaped into walls and smoke stacks will
rise up, and manufactures will thrive.
Thrift will take the place of sloth, and true
comfort of egotisticsl and ignorant content.
The whole section will blossom as gar
den, and the people win become worthy of
the enjoyment of the rare advantages with
which nature has endowed the land. But,
above all, political strife will cease, as it is
now known, and election campaigns will
no longer be illustrated with deeds of blood
and rapine. The capitalists and the laborer
will vote side by side, and the color line, or
the line between Incidence and industry,
which is almost the same thing, will be
oblitaratod
