An UGLY OUTLOOK

The republican state convention of
New York has met, acted and ajouraed.
and from their standpoint things have
a decidedly ugly appearance sure
enough The solid south is the
trouble now. We felt convinced all
along that while they were unfeelinaly
riding tho south to death with their
broken down and discredited home
politicians, they were sowing dragon
teeth which would read them, destroy
ing the republican party soul and body.
The solid south il but the logical se-
quence of a solid north; it Is the sure
growth of the seed planted by the re-,
publican party itself, and that it now
troubles them they have only them
selves to thank The bioody~shirt
could not do duty always. As soon as
intelligent and honest men came south,
and when their reports had gone home
the charm of kusklux, white leagues.
etc, was broken. The simple truth de-
stroyed the potency of the bloody.
shirt. Ii is now lost factor in national
politics, and is subordinate to a solid
south backed by the honest and fair Of
the people Of the north.
Mr.. Hayes understood well, that
when he took the reins of power from
the hands Of Grant. the virtues Of sec>
tionalism had all been exhausted. and
whether he felt IL or not. he would be
compelled to maintain at least sern-
blance Of fairness in his policy with re-
gard 70 the south. His success not

opinion OF the district offieer-, does
not represent more than two thirds of

further to add the deaths which have

THE question Of the economy ofmain-
tanning large standing army in times
Of peace. is being discussed. TO our
mind careful organization and thor
ough system Of drill, would make our
militia the most reliable ooadjutors of
the law, and then the expense of MAIN
tanning it would be mere nothing as
compared to a regular army. The last
war abundsntly proved the efficiency
of the volunteer soldiery OF the country,
both north and south. We would
greatly prefer to see the states establish
aud maintain their own military force,
while the United States should keep
only enough force in service to guard
national property and to defend the
territories.
