Southern Claims.

When the republican newspapers dur
ing the late campaign cited the Southern
war-claims as one of the dangers of the
accession of the Confederates to the con-
troll Of the Government, they were vari-
0usly answered that the allowance OF these
claims Is prohibited by the constitutional
amendments. and tina: the charge was q
campaign roorbach. The recent action
In the House Of representatives shows
that neither answer was true. The House
BY . vote Of $50 TO 63. has passed res
olution instructing the Judiciary Commit
tee to, report an amendment to the Con-
stitution forbidding the payment of war
claims TO disloyal persons. Thus constitu-
'tional provisions do not cover the case,
As was claimed by the democrats during
the campaign. But the character of the
negative vote also shows that the appre-
tensions of the republicans as to the de-
signs of the ex-Confederates of the South
were well founded. Of the 63 who voted
against the resolution, only two are
Northern members, and all the others rep
resentatives of the Confederate claimants.
The negative vote includes such promi-
nent Southerners as Whitthorne and Bright
OF Tennessee, Walker OF Virginia, Vance
of North Carolina, Throckmorton, Rea-
gan. and Schleicher af Texas, Tucker of
Virginia, Singleton and Lynch of Missis-
sippi. Hill, Blount, and Harris of Geor ga,
Knott and Brown, of Kentucky, etc. and
when sixty-one of these gentlemen place
themselves on record as opposed to any
permanent and sweeping prohibition of
paying claims for war losses to the men
who were engaged in the rebellion against
the government, 1t is pretty evident that
the Republican apprehension was WELL
grounded.
1t is more than likely that this resolu-
ton was introduced into the House at this
time for the purpose of allaying the pub
lie apprehension and making capital for
Mr. Tilden pending the dispute as to the
election OF President. But the only prop
er way is for Congress to accept it in good
faith, and the Republicans urge forward
just such measure as the resolution calls
for. The matter must not be permitted to
sleep in the Committee. The present con.
stitutional amendments are not broad
enough to cover the ground. The Four.
teenth Amendment merely excludes the
assumption of the Rebel debt and the pay.
msnt for the emancipated slaves; bu
there is nothing in the Constitution which
prevents allowing claims for property USED
and destroyed. or ground occupied. when
presented by men who were in open re-
bellion. There is United States statut,
TO this purport but that may be repealed
at any time the Confederates secure suffi
Gent power. There is no danger to be
apprehended from the present Congress
nor the next Congress. for the Senate will
continue to be Republican, but the on
ly way to shut out all apprehension fol
the future is TO provide constitutions
amendment that shall meet danger that
cannot be successfully denied when sixty
one Southern members ofCongress openly
acknowledge their willingness to pay for
mer Rebels for losses incurred by theil
own treason.

The upshot of the matter is that Hewitt

may be continued postmaster If the DEM
ocrats should get the power. Mr.. Hew-
