Il is evident that President Grant has
acted in a spirit of malicious partisanship
and determination to intimidate southern
Democrats and prevent them from exercis-
ing the right of suffrage The courts are
properly the tribunals to try the violators
of law. The administration proposes to
threaten the southern people with bayo-
nets. = Louisville Courier-Joundt.
The farmers Of Illinois and Of the west
are interested in this matter, and they, as
well as the mechanics and manufacturers
OF the middle and eastern states, will pro-
test against the action which will but in
crease their own burdens for no better OBJ
lect than the perpetuatiou OF 4 corrupt
political party.-IHs State Register
The order from Secretary Cameron to
lstration has had a very definite use to
make oil these troops all the time, and we
at once see why Crook and Terry have
been deliberately left without adequate
support. 1t is expected that the FIVE
regiments will carry fur of the southern
states, by whipping the negroes into line
who have either become listless in politics
CT wandered off to the Democracy. and by
terrifying the "fendish' white liners into
subsection. BY keeping the outrage mill
slow 5 grinding, and sending platoons of
cavalry hither and thither, it is evidently
hoped to revive the bitterness which has
been rapidly disappearing between the
races in most parts of the south. We
wish to see all citizens protected IN their
rights, but this turning of the army of the
United States into bands of drummers for
the negro vote is pushing partisanship so
far that it would be grotesque if it were
not infamous. This is doubtless the work
to which General Sherman referred when
he said the highest authority must an
swer why the troops could not be spared
to fight the Sioux. The desperation of a
, move which dares to saddle the country
with the expense of extra soldiers while
keeping nearly four thousand idle for po
litical purposes is apparent, and adds
another stigma to the rule Of the party il
whose name and for whose aid it is uu
blush;ngly done. -Neao York Herald.

The platform adopted by the Demo-
cratic Convention in Virginia City. yes

citation in tho price OF silver Is mainly
due to the demonstration Of the silver
dollar BY the Act Of 1873. and that ihe
passage Of said Act was a measure iof
which tho Republican party Is alone fe-
sponsibic. wsre the American people
ever called upon to swallow = mess OF

causes 30 entirely remote from Ausri-
can politics in any form. that there Is
not a Democrat in the State who a
fully understand them. The causes
leading to tho depreciation may have
had their origin partly in this country
through the marvellous tales told Of
the prospective production OF the CON-
stock minss-but the handspring OF the
thing was In Europe. and entirely be-
yond tho control Of American politicians
or economists. Why does not Colonel
Ellis charge the Republican party with
the responsibility Of the demonstration
Of silver by Germany. and accuse that
party Of subsidiring Deidesheimer to
represent to Eupopean capitalists that
there was u greater bulk Of silver in
sieht In Mount Davidson than there is
water in the Atlantic ocean, Why does
not the gallant Colonel ask us to be-
leve this. and have done with itr
Il is true the passage Of tho act de-
monetizing the silver dollar was secured
by. fraud and deception. but the fraud
vas perpetraied by two or three men.
and the passage Of the bill was voted
for innocsntly. and in ignorance Of its
intent and effect. by Republicans and
Democrats alike. As there were but
eighteen votes cast against the passage
OF the bill In the Houss. and N il is
prssumabls that some Republicans voted
against It. 1t Is but fair to presume that
the majority Of the Democrats then in
the House voted in favor Of the passage
Of the hill. Colonel Ellis neglected to
