Don,t Trust Him.

VIZ klunb. LIS A AAtAAAASAhy my
adopt and carry out the policy to-
ward the South as declared by prom
inent Republican leaders during the
count. by the perjured commission,
Cor at least eight ofthem werc). This
policy was held out by them to the
Southern Democrats, and they bit at
II, and through their influence and
by their votes, the fraud of counting
in Hayes was allowed to be. perpe-
trated. The South, through her rep
resentatiyes, has earned recognition
from the Great Fraud who now occu.
pies the Presidential Chair. But we
feel that the South will find in a
very short time that they have "paid
dear for their whistle" and that
their condition will be far worse than
it ever was under Grants rule. We
hope not however, and devoutly
pray that our prediction may never
be realized. But no reliance can be
placed in an administration that has
been conceived and brought forth by
the grossest of frauds, and which will
have neither the confidence or sup
port of the honest peopleo of this land
whether they be Democrats or Re
Republicans. Hayes will be at the
mercy of and controlled by such
men as Zach Chandler, Morton, Wells
and many others of that ilk; they
will dictate to him his Southern
policy" and he will not dare to de-
viatc from it. Any attempt on his
part to cut loose from the bad men
of his party, will result in his being
literally and forever crushed. Reas-
oning from this, we claim there is
no safety in relying upon the pro.
LESSONS of wise, liberal and con-
ciliatory policy toward the South,
and that these professions are not
sincere, but were only made for the
purpose of getting Hayes into the
Presidential Chair. If such is the
result the South must blame herself.
Asan exchange states it: off Hayes
should pursue the policy indicated
for him, he would build up a party
in the South which will be invinci-
bic. The negroes, under his direct
ion, will have n change of political
masters from that of the carpet,bag-
ger to the native Southerner. If, on
the other hand, Hayes should pursue
the policy that Grant did, then the
people of the Southern States, with
no future before them but continued
misrulo and prostration, will grow
reckless and desperate, and, as Don
Piatt prophesied, lamp-posts will
bear abundant fruit, in short time.
There is nothing so fearful as the
outburst of a people driven to desper-
alton by the continual goading of a
tyrant."
Mr.. Hayes is now President, and
he has these two policies to decide
between, and upon his choice de-
ponds the veal or woe of this nation.
