The Republican party having
placed in the Constitution certain
amendments, and adopted system
of reconstruction for the States
lately in rebellion, it's duty is to
defend and protect it's work.
Against this work for years the
waves of opposition will beat The
Democratic party, inspired, direc
ted and controlled by the South,
will make upon it annual assaults.
In spite of all party platforms,
resolutions of fraternity, arn~in
arm conventions. and gush like
that of General Bartlett and John
son, the validity and permanence Of
this work will be the issue for O
long time to come. Federal and
Confederate soldiers may unite in
the decoration of the graves of the
dead. Federal and Confederate
officers may rush into each others
arms at festivals and centennials,
and the tide of emotional politics
and fraternity may run high: but
until the constitutional amend
ments and the principles of recon-
struction are honestly and heartily
accepted, the issue has not been
changed and the contest is not
ended. In the political action of
the Democratic party in the South,
there has been no change for the
better, and no abatement of its OPP
position to the measures of recon
st,uction adopted since the end of
the war. If anything, this OPPOSE
ton and bitterness have increased.
Participation in the rebellion is to-
day as much the Democratic touch
stone in the South to office holding.
and to all political influence and
favor. as at any former period. The
Republican party in the North is
urged to lay down its arms upon
emotional grounds, while the Demo.
cratic party at the South has yield
ed nothing, and, like the venomous
rattlesnake. is cooled and ready to
strike whenever it's antagonist may
be off guard and there is an op-
portunity to infiict deadly wound.
There is propensity among Ger
tain politicians for gush and slob
Der, or, as they have it in Plymouth
Church, for ''inspirational and
paroxysmal kissing" all of which
may occur in the absence of second
principles, true friendship or good
faith. Until the Democratic party
accepts the amendments and prin-
ciples of recon struction, and agrees
to the equality of all men before
the law, that Republican who
urges his party to ground its arms
and rush into the embrace of the
unrelenting adversary must be re
garded as exceedingly weak or
dangerously treacherous.

Democratic papers are habitually
charging Republicans with corrup
ton, disregarding the fact that in
every huge rascality developed III
and out of Congress there have
been more Democrats implicated in
proportion to numbers than Repub
licans, disregarding also another
important fact, that the Democratic
party while in power seldom or
never Investigated or punished
wrongdoers. The gigantic fraud
of the rebellion, which cost the
people untold treasure and blood,
was from inception to conclusion
the work of Democrats. Republi-

and sorrow brought to every hearth
in the State. But we have fresher
fish to fry. The last Democratic
Legislature is a by word and a
shame; corruption stalked boldly
through it; employees were paid
who never did I'm hours service;
bills were stolen time and again
from the files of both Houses, and
people when they visited the Legis-
lature left their valuables at home.
After the Legislature adjourned
Governor Hendricks, for partisan
reasons, gave the members GER
tificate of charact X, which is of
little use to them, though it did the
Governor harm. Democrats are in
no condition to charge corruption
upon any one.-Madison Courier.

I am not now and never was in

has been the subjec. of recent crit

as the English language could ex-
press it, THAT IT COULD NOT BE DONE,
under our Constitution. The opin-

Mr. Buskirk. of Indiana, lit seems

ting in the seat of the Chief JUS
tice of the Supreme Court. has an.
nounced that the distinguished tri-
bunal of which he is head will not
open the celebrated colored school
case for rehearing. He says the
court are entirely satisfied with the
Judgment rendered. No doubt his
is true It is safe to say that if the
court had not been satisfied. and
more than satisfied, the present
Judgment would never have been
rendered iu the FIRST place. 1t was
because Mr.. Buskilk was satisfied.
and because lie was perfectly will
ling to make decision which graft
flied his own hatred of the colored
race. even in the teeth of the Con-
stitution of the United States, that
such disgraceful and iniqu. tous
Judgment was rendered. It has
been only the insigniicance Of the
court that has kept the case from
becoming one of the most notorious
in the land. and its Judges the
most infamous. Taney's offense
was not equal to it, but his name
came to be spoken only with con-
tempt. But fancy was Judge,
learned and talented, though mar
row in his prejudices, and bitter in
his dislikes. It is an excess of
courtesy to speak of fifth rate
politician like Rnskirk as Judge OF
anything but whisky His decision
in this case has no more moral
force and no more legal significance
than if spoken on the stump 0:
when on a periodical spree in Indi

could extend over the Union. he
would have the biggest field for the
contempt business that ever fell to

party, and q disrespect to decency

want to tell Il little story about IN old
acquaintance who once published a
paper on the line Of the Detroit and
Milwaukee Road He was mighty
poor cOmposItor to begin with and
the first issue of his paper was a light
to see. He had borrowed old stereo
types of bitters and buchu to fill up
with. and mis- 'salutatory, IS he call
ed it, contained about two hundred
typographical errors and half that
number of grammatical blunders. But
it was a foundation, and he went to
receiving subscriptions and sending
for railroad passes. He went for"
over every road in the State; but these
were not enough. He sent abroad,
and finally he addressed the superin
fendent Of an Ohio road. No answer.
The editor wrote again. No answer
He wrote a third letter: and an an
swer came back. Go to h-' The
editor turned the letter over and
wrote, Send me a pass on your road
and [ will" The pass came and he
was made happy
Though the ,untry has been suffer
ing for good while from panics, a
general shrinking of values and hard
times generally, the people still man
age to buy and consume the average
quantity of necessaries and the lesser
Injuries of life. The late report OF
the Bureau of Statistics makes rather
surprising showing in this respect.
For instance, we have imported over
S2,0OO,O0O worth of tea during the
last nine months in excess oil the same
period last year For the same time
we have imported S3,OO0,O0O more of
sugar. 1900 900 more of woolens, $780,
600 more of linens, $5O0.O0 more of
cottons. while the importations of
cofeee in excess of last year run up
into the millions. The people are
evidently determined to feed and
clothe themselves any way, be the
times good or bad.
