Considering the facts as far as then
known, the conduct of DIR. Bayliss was
wholly inexcussble. He made a vile
charge against the Southern people in the
interest of the Republican party. he did
it with this express purpose and no prin-
ciples of humanity or Christianity moved
him. The Christian spirit was not in his
discourse. 1t was the doctrine OF hate. It
violated the decslogue in bearing false
witness. and in the absence of that charity
that becomes the Gospel of Christ. But IL
every word uttered py DR.. Bsyliss were
true, ii the Southern Democracy had in
mass concocted the scheme, and managed
by hired agent the assassination. nothing
OF which Is true, even then DIR.
BAylIss had no right as a minister OF the
gospel on funeral occasion, employed In
the sacred rites of sepulture to make a no.
liticsl hsrangue about it. That should have
been left for the press and the political
speaker. 1t had no business in the sane
tusTy. 1t was PROCLAMATION of sacred
/
OF the dead. BsyliEs disgraced himself In
utterirg that hsrangue, and in re pesting
1t In substance on Sunday night, and his
audience disgTsced themselves and the
place of worship in spplauding him. The
conducs of this reverend doctor will not be
approved by men OF right Christian
spirit, and we can say to him, that how
ever much the scsndaIous politicians who
have no regard for sacred things approve
and applaud, he does not represent the
Christian sentiment of Indianapolis in his
conduct. They go to church to Worship,
to the hastings for political harangues.
he may have brains, but his head is not
well balanced. He may know better, but
conscience does not seem to guide him.

question, precipitated by blatant hsuDter
of the bloody shirt from South Carolina
named Smalls, who dragged the matter
bill. Several Northern Republicans took
up the cue. and there was q scene in the
chamber that would have delighted the
heart OF Blaine. II was reserved for Ls-
mar of Mississippi to make the most dig
nified, temperate and 1sir-mirded
speech in which, while deploring the kill
ing of the negroes aud calling for
the punishment of the perpetrators, he
calmly and without the rant or passion
conspicuous on the other side. traced the
cause and responsibility fer such outrages
to it's pro IT source, the sham and spuri-
GUS Republican governments that have
been set up In the South st the point OF
the bsyonet. 1t is scarcely conceivable
how one not blinded by partisan prejudice
can avoid seeing the justice OF holding the
southern state governments responsible
for such outrsges as occur. To
begin with, it is only In states
upon which carpet bag govern
menus nave Dcou tuiu ny tnO
Republican policy of restoration that
these riots occur, and in the states which
have been most thoroughly "recon.
structed" the outbursts are most frequent
aud severe. In those states in which the
people of the country have recovered the
power which was taken from them per-
feet quiet reigns. Arkansas, once 50 tur-
bulent, is now peaceful and prosperous
under Democratic rule. No more Is heard
of trouble in Mississippi since General
Buffers carpet-bag brother-in-lsw has
been forced to resign, and the state is
once more In the hands OF its own citizens.
1t is only in South Carolina and Louisiana
that csrpet-bsg and negro government re-
main in force, and it is only in these states
that outrsges and riots occur. The lesson
from these facts should be plain enough,
but there is no blindness ike that OF par
tisan hate, and we shall probably continue
to hear OF the responsibility OF the Dem-
ocracy for the outrsges which their rule
would wholly suppress.
