The big new consolidated paper at st
Paul and Minneapolis, the lioneer-Prcs
and Tribune, says: of there is any
thing the country is more sincerely SICK
and tired of than anything else, it is the
bloody shirt. One chief reason why
Morton is not a popular candidate lol
president, Is because he is always waving
the bloody shirt. And there appears tt
have been something like a general re
solve among the better elements of the
republican party to get rid of the bloody
shirt and bury it out of sight with al
other prctexts for interfering by military
coercion or in other arbitrary ways will
the local governments of the south, anc
devote themselves to the practical worl
of roofing out corruption and reforming
the administration of the government
within its own Legitimate sphere"
