Is THIS A FREE GOVERNMENT within
forty.eight hours this question has become q
grave one. In recent years, and in years OF
peace, we have seen that the national admin.
istration can point its bayonet at the MEM
bers of State Legislature and expel them
from their seats. We have seen that the ar
nv can remove Governor duly elected and
install one who is not. We have seen the
sword, and not the suffrage, the sceptre of
power in portion of this land labeled free"
But no such sweeping assault upon civil law
and constitutional liberty has ever emanated
under our broad national seal as that shame
lessly made in the proclamation of the Pres
ident on the 18th instant, and its surround
ing administrative acts. The infamy Of the
order of Taft, the willing tool of an usurp-
ing administration, long known and widely
respected though he has been in our midst, it
was believed this desperate and daring ad-
ministration dared not outdo. But that was
only the beginning. 1t now appears if this
proclamation be proper, that the army of the
national government, at the bidding of the
Executive, may wipe out States, cast out
their courts as baubles to be thrown away, or
trample them under foot as worms, walk over
their authority like lord over his domain,
brush aside, like cobwebs. every local officer
within their borders, stalk with despotic
tread over their constitutions and their laws,
while the pleading States may hold in their
right hands, in front of the bayonets, the con-
stitution of the fathers with its sacred war
ranty.deed Of their rights, in vain. If the
possibility of all this is to become an estab'
fished precedent, and by the suffrages of the
American people, let the hope Of free gov.
ernment perish, for there is an end of consti-
tutional liberty on this continent.-Cinci".

No one pretends to doubt that the people of
South Carolina have for many years suffered
from public robbery and grave maladminis-
tration at the handa' Of men who used the ig-
norant negro vote to maintain themselves in
power. At last, there, as in Arkansas and in
Alabama, even the negroes, or at least the
more intelligent part of them, have become
weary Of imisrule 'st the same time, q. IN
those other States, the Republican party has
become divided, and one faction arrays itself
against the party candidate. By this split
the Democrats reason ably hope to profit and
to carry the STATE. 7 hey are aslng their ut.
most efforts to do 60, and they. deserve the
sympathy of every opponent of bad govern
ment in the North. But in this emergency,
when natural causes give the friends Of hon
esty chance, the Federal power is invoked,
and successfully, to step in to save GovernSs
Chamberlain from defeat which he deserves,
and which the public good demands. Surely
that is not free or constitutional government.

Il is unfortunate for the President and for
the party be represents, that the news OF the
Cainhoy massacre came upon the very day Of
the issuance Of his proclamation disbanding
the Democratic clubs and disarming the white
population of South Carolina. In the, long
list of sanguinary incidents that have marked
the history of the South since reconstruction,
there have been few in which either party
could be held blameless., The race prejudice
and hot temper Of the whites have often been
the bottom Of the trouble. In other cases, as
at Colfax, Vicksburg and Hamburg, there
have been honest doubts as TO the .responsi.
bility for bloodahed. But as to Cainhoy, ac-
cording to present full adyices from partisan
and non.partisan sources, there can be, none
whatever. Neither charity nor mendacity can
make the negroes appear in this case as mur- M
dered innocents. M z,. D, 55ss,.,4, !, s.
Details serve only to blacken the case Of
the negroes The massacre, does not prove,
as Democratic organs may claim, that all the
colored people of South Carolina are blood
thirsty wretches, who should be exterminated.
Much less does it show, as Republican organs
will insist, that they are prosecuted innocents,
needing the strong arm Of the government for
protection. But It does show that the, evil
Influences set in motion by Don Cameron'sor-

Itis true that there is solid South, and
that this solid South will eventually dictate
the policy of the government. But I do not
believe with some that great disaster will fol-
low this, or that the debt will be paid, or any
attempt made in that direction, or any of the
results of the war lost. So far as negro suf.
frage is concerned, and that it is justly es-
teemed result of the war, you may be sure
the South will never interfere with that. 1t
happens to be, as they have found out, and as
We are finding out, the very thing they want
ed. The stone which they tried to reject, has
become the chief Of the corner. There will
be an uproar against black suffrage some years
hence, but it will not come from the South.
Without black suffrage the solid South would
only. control itself. But with the enlarged
representation which black suffrage gives, they
are in fair way to control the whole govern
ment. Give yourself no fear about this ere
suit of the war"-negro suffrage-for the
South will never disturb it. They have got
