1t APPEARS that the Republicans of
Massachusetts did not fall into the trap
set for them by such insidious and
unprincipled men as Sam Bowles, Charles
Francis Adams and others of like kidney;
but if they had they would have deserved to
be beaten in the coming election in that
State. Henry Wilson is the deluded and
weak kneed Republican who has been Sc
lected by these schemers to be their spokes-
man. He has done his appointed duty well.
AT the very outset of the campaign he has
confessed-the Democracy fthe State being
pledged to hard money-that no difference
exists in the promised governmental policy
ofthe two parties. They seem to have under
stood, however, that the real national issue
in politics is the integrity of both the finsn-
cial and political pledges made by the Gov
eminent when their representatives had
control in the national councils. The
Democratic party-or rather the Southern
wing of it, which controls the entire or
ganization-stands consistently opposed to
these political pledges. This fact Mr.. Will
SOC, Mr.. Bowles and Mr.. Adams ignore, or
if they do not ignore it. concede the truth
of the Democratic assertion that equal citi-
zenship is an accomplished fact, The re-
suit is plain that unless the people are
taught to understand the truth Of the diff
ference between the two parties the Demo.
Gratis will have an equal show with the Re-
publicans. We repeat, then, that if the
Republican leaders in Massachusetts, had
allowed themselves to be misled by such
enemies of the party as Bowles, Adams
6 Co., and fail to exhibit that truth in its
strongest light they would have deserved
defeat.

OF ALL the vainglorious people in the
country, the natives of Massachusetts are
apt TO be the. most aggressive and blIndly
ignorant of the truth when they happen to
think they have accomplished anything Of
public importance. Just now they are
laboring under the delusion that they
whipped the South during the late war,
and are bound in consequence to deal with
gracious leniency in their present relations
with that section. The Southern Demo.
Gratis understand this thoroughly, and are
proceeding with due elaboration to "fool
these conceited Yankees" by admitting all
their vainglorious assertions. The plain
truth is, however, that while Massachu-
sets and New England had much to do
with the destruction of slavery because the
principle of abolition found nourishment
among their old. time statesmen, every other
section Of the North joined in the battle
when the time to battle for human rights
came. Subsequently the same principle
was asserted when the time came to lay the
foundation of reconstruction in the South.
In this way it happened that Massachusetts,
principles obtained everywhere, and have
been formulated into enduring law. But
are those principles carried into effectf
The law may endure; but does it endure
outside Of the statute booksf Massachu.

No ONE WHO knows anything of Chas.
A. Dana's character-and who does not3-
would pay the slightest attention to what
the New York Sun may or may not say
regarding the character of any respectable
person or corporation. The effecs of his
constant hammering at Whitelaw Reid and
the New York Tribune, however, is
rapidly becoming apparent. Whitelaw is
now known the country over as the Young
Man of the Powerful Mind" the "Young
Man of the Tall Tower" and "Jay Gould's
Stool-Pigeon. If Dana had applied these
epithets to Horace Greeley and the Trt6uns
when Greeley was it editor, they would
have had no practical effect; but under the
circumstances, they have produced exactly
the effect they were intended for. This
fact will, perhaps, serve to illustrate the
force of a persistent exposition of the truth
even by disreputable person. By all means
let Dana go on. Bad as he is, and IN
worthy of recognition by any reputable
citizen, there is not respectable man, wo-
man or child in the land that does not wish
him abundant success in his efforts to de-
stroy Whitelaw.

AN UNHAPPY CONTRAST.

Elsewhere will be found letter from
Mississippi giving clear and succinct ex-
PLANTATION of the situation regarding the re-
sources of Governor Ames for the preser-
vation of order and protection of life within
the State. We trust that every reader of
THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN will give the
facts presented careful examination. 1t
will be seen that they fully confirm all that
we have ever alleged in reference to the
Vaccinations of the Democratic Ku-Klux
or White Liners in their attempts to carry
out the programme of Lamar and Gordon
for carrying the election. We also present
an extract from the report of Colonel A T.
Morgan, sheriff of Yazoo county, showing
upon what provocation five rufians drew
their reVolvers, and by firing into the
crowd and upon the presiding officer broke
up a Republican meeting The ball was
soon cleared, the alarm bell rung and
hordes of armed white "citizens" then
ruthlessly pursued unarmed colored citizens
through the streets to their homes. The
sheriff was obliged to hide to save his life.
White Liners f1ocked in from neighboring
towns armed TO the teeth with revolvers
and Winchester and other improved rifles
to join in "nigger hunt" All this was
done under the preteIt of q NEGRO raising"
In another portion of this paper will be
found gushing" resolution OF Massa-
ehusetts Republican convention, protesting
a belief in the sincerity of the professions
of Southern Democrats that they are peace
loving and law-abiding and declaring that
all political disabilities should be removed
because the Centennial should be celebrated
by united people in the full fervor of
glowing affection.
1t is not easy TO perceive how men can
become so blinded to the fact that the col
ored men of the South are utterly ignored
as citizens by the white Democrats. The
kilograms tell US that "citizens" tender aid
to the Governor. Who are these "citi-
zeps" but the members of the White
League organizations who stole State arms,
and who are the hackers, instigators and
projectors of the ruffians who inaugurate
negro massacres?

Asa MAN who, to-day, is living ''on past

Henry Wilson is entitled to distinguished

certainly could not live at all if its member
ship was composed of men who, like Will

ONE GREAT drawback to the prosperity
of Washington during the past five or six
years has been the hesitation of Congress
men and Government officials of all grades
TO invest money in real estate within the
District limits. This hesitation has been
occasioned by the fact that investments of
the kind mentioned have been invariably
heralded abroad by the sub-detectives of
the Detective press, known otherwise as
the gentlemen % of Newspaper Row."
in such a manner as to furnish basis
unfounded, to be sure-for suspicion
as to the manner in which the Of
fcials in question obtained the required
capital. No one has stopped to ask the
question whether these gentlemen" have
succeeded, or have been willing to succeed,
in making corrupt investments But the
truth is that majority of them have been.
There are thirty or forty of them in the
city, and the number of honest men among
them could be counted without exhausting
very extended knowledge of mathematics
Some of them on small weekly salaries live
in elegantly furnished houses, built or pur-
chased in their own names. if not at their
own expense, while others support costly
carriages and gaudy turnouts. But, having
no reputation to lose, they are not afraid of
being exposed. Like so many pole-cats,
they are invulnerable, and woe to him who
attacks them.

THE New York Tribune ranks itself and
its associates of the Detective Press as the
''bell-punch in politics." the idea it at
tempts to convey being to show that they
have succeeded in exposing the crimes or
peccadiloss ofpublic officials. 1t forgets to
say however, that it sounds false alarms
from its bell-punch to cover up its own in
fanny. Its editor is accused of having &C
cepted a $780, bride from Gov Tilden,
of having submitted Its columns to the con-
troll Of Jay Gould and other Wall street
plunderers, of having coaxed and betrayed
Prof Marsh into an interminable mesh of
complicated falsehoods about Indian affairs,
of having suppressed the publication of
news for political as we'll as financial OBJ
jects, and of having garbled information that
has been sent to it for the same purpose.
In short, it is of the class that, some time
ago, found out a way to "beat the bell
punch" and, instead Of being an honest
detective, serving the public faithfully, it
is nothing more nor less than fleeing
political tramp, crying stop thief to at
tract attention from ITSELF

bled or materially altered the letters writ

this 1t was guilty Of disreputable viola
ton o professional honor, and an act for
which no respectable journalist would care
to be held responsible. 1t is bad enough

practice, Of which the Tribune stands self
confessed by its silence, of suppressing,
garbling or altering information sent to it
by one of its own trusted employees is
worthy alone of the present management

HENRY WILSON has given to the White
Leaguers and Ku-Klux of the South an
other word Of encouragement. He tells
them that the Republican party can not
live on past memories. The most earnest
past memory of the party embraces its
pledges to protect the principle of equal
suffrage and equality under the law. Mr..
Wilson's idea is to abandon this pledge.
Now let the White Leaguers and Ku Klux
go ahead with their assassination and
prescription of white and colored Republi-
cans, and unless they believe as we do,
that Mr.. Wilson advice will not be needed,
they need have ne fear of punishment for
their crimes this side of the place where
they will meet him and every other traitor

THURSDAY MISUNDERSTANDING 80. 1876
THE MASSACHUSETTS REPUBLICANS.

The State platform adopted by the Re-
publicans of Massachusetts, at Worcester,
yesterday, presents the strange picture of
honest and patriotic men struggling to
tell the truth, and fearing that telling it
will injure them in the opinion of some
imaginary political clement. Judge George
F. Hoar was undoubtedly the author of the
greater portion of it, and the rehasher, so
to speak, of several of the resolutions which
bear upon their face plain evid ance of hav-
ing been altered and compromised out
of their original shape. These altered
resolutions were no doubt pressed by
the Sam. Bowles and Charles Francis
Adoms delegates, and were intended to
pledge the convention to the non-com-
initial policy as regards the Southern
question urged by Vice President Will
son. 1t must be admitted, however,
that even as amended they do not exhibit
anything more than shadow of the true
spirit of Massachusetts Repu5licanism as
illustrated by the course of Massachusetts,
Republicans when, as members of Con-
gress and leaders of Northern public opin-
ion, they framed the reconstruction acts,
and sent the Republican party of the South
to sail alone on the troubled sea of politics.
In short, there is positive exhibition of
weak kneedness in the PLATFORM submis-
sion 10 the cowardly belief that 'tit is no
longer popular 10 wave the bloody shirt"
and an absence O. uncompromising enmity
to the entertainments of delusive Southern |
Democratic influences. Instead of de- |
claring boldly and truthfully that the prin-
ciple of equal citizenship is in danger, the
convention satisfied itself with doubling
or sarcastic assertion that the Democracy
has formally accepted the work of Repub-
lican reconstruction. Otherwise the labors
of the convention will generally be &C.
cepted by true Republicans as sltis-
factory. The formality of q North
ern anti Third term resolution was
not neglected, but by nominating the
Hon. Alex. H. Rice to be the candidate
for Governor, the influence for present
evil of such destructives as Bowles,
Adams and Wilson was at once rebuked
and, no doubt, destroyed. The party was
in danger of straying far, far away; but it
seems that it did not get so far away
from safe moorings as to prevent the pos
sibility of its return to tho harbor of
patriotic consistency. On the whole the
result is better than we expected, for we
feared that the infection of imbecile oppo-
sition to the Southern policy Of the Adj
ministration was more widespread than
it really is and that the convention would
consequently fail 10 do anything more
than ind"rse the staunch Republican prin-
ciplc UI hard money.
