Gun party. II was defeat, in my Judgment, OF tho
military element, much TO DO dreaded In the civil
administration OF all irec governments II was also
defeat OF the political bciscrent element OF tho rc-
publican party, which seems TO have place for
craftsmanship or policy except to foment sectional
hates and passions The South, above ali things
wants honoss administration OF tho general govern
msnt, according to the constitution. l do not
know Governor Hayes personally. but from
tho information get concerning him believe
he is honest and q fair man. Being q
