bars will all 20 into the Democratic eau
Gus without hesitation and in full force.
The idea that Hayes psliey would draw
from the Democratic ranks was a false
one. It would rather strengthen the
party by causing a split in the Republi
a faction. BE thought the postnone-

congress q good thing for the Democrats

is ever so. When once the Republican
party starts downward in a Southern
State 1t is soon practically out OF ex-
istence.
To all intents and purposes the Repub.
lican party of South Carolina is to day
dead. 1t can do nothing, it can elect
nobody. There is q wide spread and al
most frenzied determination upon the
part Of tbs whites never to allow it to
come to power again, and they never
will. By superior intelligence aud re-,
sources they will gradually but effeclual-
ly crush it out. They have had enough
OF it, and will 20 to war before they will
allow il to come to power again.
This fierce a%ntagoHism is not without
cause. The career of the Republican
party here has been a libel upon c~iviliza.
ton. Its rule has been imbecility aud
robbery. Offices and public trusts were
bought and sold without shame.

The more Mr. Redfield examines the South, the more he IS convinced tbat a break Tn the Democratic party is lmpOssi. ble for some time to come. He says: ''The determination to mass the whites of the South practically into one party and throw solid South for the Democratic candidate in 1880 will probably succeed. It looks that way now. In some of the border Southern States the Republican party, under the wise administration of President Hayes, is making little pro- gress, but that a single Southern State will be carried for any other party than the straight Democratic in 1880 do not now believe. Those who manifest an indepen- ent turn of mind will be whipped back in- to line, and the old order of things con- tinue Three years is some distance to see ahead but from what observations can make every one of the 13S electoral votes of the South will he given to the Democratic candidate at the next Presi- dential election. I wish could say oth- erwise, but the South seems to mo hope lessly solid on national issues. with no prospect. of break sufficient to carry a single State for any other than the straight l Democratic candidates"
