gENPHIS APPEAL
TUTRSDlY. NOVEMBER IL, 1875.
NoRTON,S BLOODY SHIRT.


Here il is at last. We knew it would
come. SO long - Morton lives and has
a tongue 10 wag, or 30 long as he has an
organ and an editorial proxy to WELD a
pen in his behalf, We look for fierce de-
nunciations OF everything Democratic,
and lying statements in regard to the
south. The victory Of the Dem ocracy
Of Mississippi has aroused the "blOOdy
shirt" passion Of this hearty hster Of the
south. He can't stand il. II is more
than his perverted nature can bear and
he survive. he must say something as
an easement at once Of mind and cor
science, or his editorial friend must say
it for him. Hence we have the follow
ing from the Indianapolis Journal:
The Democracy have carried a Republican
state BY deliberate system OF terrorism. p!
a Republican majority OF over thirty tnoo-
sand has been overcome, and In ITS place We
have "sweeping DemocTaiuc yleIoiy y, 81 %
Ience that Republicans were afraid 70 run Tor
ONCE. and in many localities there were no
Republican candidates Where there were
candidates most Of the voters were afraid 70
vote.
1t would be too much TO expect either
OF Morton or the Journal to give Us the
names Of the victims, the dates
and localities Of the alleged acts
OF UiOlence, Intimidation and Dllr-
der IN Mississippi, and so we will net
a it. The great Indiana statesman ~
and bis Journal never descend to par
ticulars. They prefer 10 deal in glitter
ing generBl.ties. Besides, in this case,
to deal In particulars would ultimately
lead TO the publication Of the testimony
OF Senator AIcorD, Ex-senator Pease
and Representative ]. Wiley Wells-sll
three Of them leading RepubliCans-not
tOspesk OF the colOred speaker, Younger,
and others of the Republicans,
white and black, who volun-
tsrily supported the Democratic
cause in Mississippi, and worked
for il until the close Of the polls on cleo
ton day. With these to speak, it would
not do for the ''blOody-shirt" statesman
TO closely investigate the methods OF
Sall glbB uAlESiSSlpbA oAVpICu W ZIG NC-
mocracy. The result would be fatal to
his purpose to keep alive sectional and
race hate, and perpetuste the only con-
dition Of the public mind by which he
could have risen to and be supported in
the exalted position he SO unworthily
fills. Morton is nothing without the
"bloody shirt" 1t fits him. Let him
wear it or wave it, as he pleases. 1t will
not be for long. One by one the wretch
ed scum are subsiding, who came to the
surface, north as well as south, as the
most deplorable result of the civil war.
He will soon be with those who have |
gone before. We can Dear with him. |
For, although he lags superfuous upon
the stage, he yet has his place as the |
only clown the great American "ring"
can now afford through whom to raise a
laugh. All the rest are either busy with |
"Thisky," or are reveling in the pick. |
ings and stealings that, if they are not |
very adroit, will yet send them to the |
penitentisry.

REPUBLICAN.

htpuDllGHu elcClDIdA Wit %
The Times ia Offering the above as its
estimate admits that, although " Ne
"vada is given in the Republican line,
sit is just as likely as not TO vote Dem
"ocratic. New Jersey ranks herself
with the Republicans IN 3 contest for
"county and legislative officers but no
Zone doubts that her vote will be Dem
"ocratic if the Democracy present good
candidates and don't surpass them
"selves in playing the fool. Moth CsTo-
"lina is in the Republican list because,
"on the populsr vote for or against a
convention, the Republicans carried
4" the State, although the Democrats
"carried a majority Of the Goiegates,
" But il must be considered thai while
"the Republicans were thougbly united
"sgsinst q convention, many CT the
"more COILS sentative Democrats symps-
"thized with the Republicans on the
"issue, and IL was not & fair test Of party
" strength. The chances are ca 20 one
" that North Carolina will vote D5nO-
cratic for President in 1876 az the State
" is undoubtedly D smocratic " Colorado,
is, OF course, left out of all these estl-
mates, as she may or may not be ad-
mitted in time to vote. II she is she
will have three votes that are as likely
to be cast for Democrat as a RePubli-
can. Taking all the estimates and
averaging them, we think we may safely
count upon an electoral majority for the
Democracy of not less than 20 votes,
but even with this the party will find it
no easy task to defeat an opponent
backed up by an administration already
convicted of unscrupulousness and eager
TO be its own successor. We cannot,
therefore, afford to make any mistakes
either Of policy or nomination, and
must prepare to win solely by means
of most liberal platform and the name,
character and fame of q statesman who
will electrify the people and increase
present figures to an overwhelming
Democratic majority.

The proposition to admit two more rot
ten borough states, with four senators,
into the Union, is. says the Chicago Trib-
vne, beginning to meet with the hostility
which such an absurd proposition de-
serves. The Cincinnati Commercial, re-
ferring to the engineers of the scheme,
who want to get into Office, says:
We presume they are as good men as
the average of their fellow politicians but
we utterly deny that the country owes
them anything. and we especially deny
that it is fair or right for congress to dilute
our political system for no valid reason in
the world. by voting to create new states
which may give these gentlemen the
seats of senators and representatives.
Let congress wait for the facts. Let an
other decennial census cnme round, and
show whether these wuuld-be states are
really advancing with rapid strides in pop
ulaiion and intelligence, or are simply
mushroom growths without the element'
