FRIDAY MORNING. Sept. II. 1875.
TIE ELECTION.


The complete returns from the election
will dissipate some errors into which
few commentators upon The Maine cleo
ton have fallen. 1t is not true that the
republican majority in this State Is the
smallest which has been given since the
party came into power twenty years ago.
The majority for General Conner will be
at least 50OO,-probably more. In 1862
the republican majority was but $40.
The next year, however. the majority
bounded up to 1852. in 1864 it was 10 1870,
in 1865 it was 22,7s7, and in 1866 it went
up to 1882. Thus the smallest majority
ever ,giveni by the republicans Of Maine
was In 1862, and that was followed by
some of the largest majorities the party
has ever achieved.
Again, when the full vote appears we
shall see that there has been no change
among the voters. The democrats have
not cast so large vote this year as in
some other years. 1t will not be so large
as the vote for Kimball in 1872, or ior
Pillsbury in 1868. They have simply sue
ceeded this year by dint of great effort.
secret canvassing, and the free use OF
money, in getting out to the polls large
share of the voters which belong to then
party. Their policy was to steal march up
on the unsuspecting republicans. in which
they have been more successful than they
ought 10 have been. There have been nc
changes in favor of the democrats, but
there has been failure to bring out the
republican vote, while the democrats have
brought out theirs in pretty full strength
It is a great mistake to attribute the re-
duction of the republican majority to a
.tidal wave," or to any cause that will
permanently reduce the republican major
ity. The republican majority in years
other than the Presidential election year
may fairly be reckoned at from 5000 to 49,
600. This year it will be 5000 result
not very depressing to republicans nor
one from which well informed democrats
can obtain much comfort. The democrats
played smart game and lost-than1s to
the republicans who were not caught nap
ping.
Their success has thoroughly awakened
the republican party, who now see that
twenty years Of victories cannot be deped-
dsd upon to carry present and future cleo
tions, and that vigilance and activity must
be practised every year if we would have
round republican majorites.

Representative Lamar, of Mississippi. in
an eloouent address to his fellow cilizens.
advised thew to treat the negro fairly, to
accord him those rights which belonged
to him as citizen The advice was good
and was all that any hapublica,,, white OF
black, could expect Boi The i.owndes
county Democrats couldonlygo half way.
They would treat everybody Fairly, on cer~
tain conditions. and SO they met in cor
venton and passed the following resoiU-
ton. Persons desiring to emi9ratc to that
section of Mississippi would DO well to take
notice, and govern themselves according
ly:,A VIZ --A A-~ 4& e IL '
s~..rhat in expressing our determination
to march boldly up 10 the color line, on
which the leaders of the Radical party
have aligned the black man, we have no
purpose OF connseiing aggression Upon
negro es as Il race. hut while firmly CON-
batting the corrupt men and principles con-
trolling the Radical party, and while re-
jecting all ANA ganation aud compromise
with radicalism. we stand ready TO offer
shelter and security to every true citizen,
be he white or black. who will come to
and stand with the Democratic and Con-
serva,ive party"
| 1t would be well for these lib cral gem
tlemau OF Lowndes county, TO have sign
board erected informing the public that
no republican can expect shelter and Sc
curly in that enlightened section of the
State.
I'VE stand ready to offer shelter and Sc
curiIy to every true citizen, be he white OF
black, who will come to and stand with
the Democratic and Conservative party
Here we have the Southern policy in a
nutshell protection to Democrats, perse-
cution to Republicans; shelter and secur-
ity to the one, neither TO the other. 1t
would be well for all concerned, If other
Democratic localities would be equally
honest in their expressions. Lowndes
county may have been a little indiscr Get.
but it has told the truth 1t has announced
openly, what others practice secretly, that
the only condition on which shelter and
security can be extended to citizens, white
or black, is, to "come to, and stand with
the Democratic and Conservative party"
The Republican party still governs Mississ-
ippi. Its policy is to extend equal pro-
lection to white and black, republicans
and democrats. If Lamar is honest in his
views, he must see that only through the
continuation of the Republican party in
power, can all classes secure protection.
The national triumph of the party whose
sentiments were spoken at Lowndes coun-
ty convention, would lead to oppression,
and through this to a war, more terrible
in its results than the one that was ushered
! in by the shareholders rebellion.-Er

THE OBJECT ~ FEW.

Democracy is struggling hard for place
friends; it wants power. to punish its ene-
mics A democratic triumph in the Pres
idential election, means the restoration OF
Southern influence in the Administration
of the Government To what is that in
fuence pledgedP Clearly to the payment
of Southern losses during the war. Cot
ton claims, amounting to at least $50. 0o0,-
600. Claims for property used or de-
stroyed by our troops, amounting to at
least 600, Co., 900. The refunding of the
cotton tax, $68, 200. 600. The shoudering
Of the rebel debt, amounting to 81, $780,
100000, by some legislative or judicial
construction of the constitutional amend
ment which prevents its payment. The
payment of at least $780, 100000 for
slaves set free, as the great reconciliation
sop between the North and South. These
are among the possibilities to follow close
upon the heels of democratic restoration
to power. The democrats of the South
openly advocate these measures as just
and equitable. They hold them out TO
their constituents as among the first fruits
to follow their ascendency TO power. The
Executive and Legislative branches of the
Government. once in the hands Of democ-
racy, the Judicial branch would soon be
formed so as to reflect and legalize their
acts The loyal people would again be
placed under Southern domination. and, |
under the color OF law, would be forced to
bear the new financial burdens which
would be placed upon them. Instead OF
our debt being reduced. it would be
doubled in few years. Our paper money
would fall in value. Our national credit
would be ruined, and nothing blu, de-
cree of Providence could save the country
from general bankruptcy and Reputation.
Let our citizens consider the price they
must pay for their apathy. if, through it.
democracy is brought back to power
Let them arouse themselves to the dangers
which threaten. Let them combine to-
gether in thorough organization. to sus.
tain the party that guards the rights of cit-
zens, and the credit of the Republic.
Shoulder to shoulder !" must be the |
watchword of the r.-Erchange.
