Was it hatred of the South, or hatred
of negro slavery, that brought about the
formation of the Republican party ? All
sensible and rational Republicans will
say "hatred of negro slavery" for
had it been hatred of the South, they
would have preferred to let the hated
South 90, rather than engage in long
and bloody war to hold them in the I'm
ion.
Hostility, then, to negro slavery, was
the sole bond of principle and integrity
in the Republican party. This, we think,
will be conceded. Slavery having been
abolished, and almost fifteen years elaps-
ed since the extinction of the institution,
it becomes a question-has not the Re-
publican party fulfilled its mission2 Ne
gro slavery is gone, never to return had
not the Republican party better go too2
And, in fact, is it not going? We refer
to the late elections, as indicative of
something. Seriously, it will puzzle any
one to point to any common animating
principle now in the Republican party.
The absorbing issues growing out of the
war have gradually lost their hold on the
public mind, and the Republican party
leaders have lost their hold on the peo-
pie. Like some of these collapsed banks
or insurance companies, the stock in
trade of the party is gone.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1877-11-08

MARSHAL Macmahon has tried to play
the Louis Napoleon role, and swing the
late election; but has signally failed.
His aim is undoubtedly to restore mons
archy in France, probably Bonapartism
a part of which he was--not a sufficient
part to save it, however. There is talk
of possible matrimonial alliance be-
tween the young scion ofthe lateEmperor
Napoleon and daughter of Marshal
Macmahon. We fear the President
Marshal of France is not philosopher
enough to profit by the lessons of the
past; and let good sense and discretion
constitute his rule Of action. We are
glad to see that these, however, govern
his opponents in France, who form a
large majority of the French people.
May God defend the right.
