reservations, or Territories. that is one
IN the northwest in addition IN the pre-
sent Indian Territory in tho South,

lending tito Democratic majorityin tl,o city
and county but G'9. III 1871 thn lowdies
md r.1f1lans carried tho election by riot md
bloodshcd, and Hwellod The Democratic 1nn-
jority TO 1,760. Now, In 1876, II is officially
declared to DO 2,oG8. This majority, tho
biggeat of all, was tho result not Of tho shot
gun policy. bntof what is getting to be known
throughout tho South as the "Alnbama
plan." 1ts simplicity md ita effectiveness. 1t
sooms, commend it to tho While-Llnors
despite their naturnl hankering" after
shotgun canvass. There is Registry
law In that State, which Is made use OF to
traudulontly deprive "niggors". Of their
votes. They aro systematically hindered III
t1,oir efforts to register, are lied 10 in order to
send them Oh FOOLS errantls 10 tho wrongplace
Of registry, to enablo trnmped-up charges Of
falso registry to DO brought against them.
It is the practice in Democratic precincts for
tho officials to rofuso to register colored
voter unless ho Is vouched for by,a white
Dcmocrat-ths which is well-nigh equivalent
to denial Of the right Of suffrage. It is also
tho practice, in making out tho registry lists
for tha aso Of tho judges, to omit tie namos
Of colored voters duly registered, md who OF
conrso aro straightMay challenged when they
offer to vote, and sent after certificates Of
registry, which are systematically withhold.
The results, that, by these paltry pottifogging
red-tapea appliances, thousands Of tho freedmen
are awindlod out Of their votes, md
thousands Of others, despairing Of fair
play, practically surrender tho right
Of suffrage by staying away from tho polls.
Thus in Mobile (city and county in 1872
tho Republican vote WAS 5,938; In 1874 1t
was l 200 loss, aud In 1876 1900 less. This
while the population remained about sta-
tionary, and tho ratio Of the blacks to the
whites was unchanged. This systenlntio
swindIing, which is more infamous than oven
Tatnu,anys ballot-atufing, is countenanced
md perpotEnted by tho "bost" citizens Of
A1abama-the people Of superior intelligence
who nnscrupulously uso 1t 10 cheat the
negroes ont Of their right to vote. Tho suo-
cess Of this rascally business in Alabama is
what commonds that plan 10 tho rost Of the
south-tLe ex-Rcbel portion Of which,
despite their acceptance Of the situation, nro
resolutely bent upon notification Of tho
Fifteenth Amendment, and will be satisfied
with nothing less than "kicking tho nigger
out Of politics.

In caso SAMUEL j. T1LpEN ia elected Presi- |
dent and Is backed by Democratic Con-
gress, what disposition will be made of tho
Southern claims for damages inflicted by tho
Union troops in keeping the South In tho
Union? THIS is question which should bo
considered boforo it is too late by the tax
payers Of the North, and, in considering 1t,
two facts should bo kept prominently In
mind. First, If tho Democratic party is suc-
cessful, tho House will DO dominated by
Confoderatos, and party policy will bo die
tated by them. Thoy ruled tho doughfaces
before tho War, md they hnyo areaay given
them to understand that they must submit
to tho yoke. Second, Mr.. TuDEs llaa
publicly announced himsolf ssate-
Rights man and while tho War wos
pending tlcolared that ho would op~
poso every effort OF the Government to
coerce the South into the Union. Putting
those two facts together, We shall have d
Congress- that will admit oil these olaims
and President that will approve them, un-
less 1t can be shown that tho South iB indif-
feront to the payment Of thom, md that
AIr. T1LDEN Is not friond Of the "8olid
South upon which hs relics for Ills election.
|, As these claims will bo introduced, and as
Northern men will have to pay them, 1t is o
| mattor Ut first importance to consider them
| in their entirety. Tho Congressional records
Of tho last session furnish the data. Twenty
| five bills Of q general naturo wero intro
duced by tho aouthorn Reformera, Of which
tho following are fair aamples;
