HAYES AND THE SOUTH.

Some of the Democratic papers of the
South are advocating Il support Of the
Presidents so-callcd Southern policy,
upon the ground that we are under obli-
cations to him for past favors, and be-
cause he is now making stand against
certain men in the Republican party,
which entities him to support. The ef-
forts of these papers is cunningly devised,
and bear upon their face the appearance
of great plausibility, but when investiga-
ted it proves to be nothing more nor less
than n coalition with one wing of the
Republican party for the purpose contin-
uing it in power. This movement in the
United States is 8 repetition Of what has
taken place in South Carolina, aud our
recent experience ought to be sufficient
to convince every one that no coalition
with n dishonest party ever proves ad-
vantageous to honest men. On the con-
trary, strong and vigorous campaign
against the tottering wreck of the corrupt
and revolutionary structure erectel by
the Republican party is almost sire to
accomplish its final overthrow. What
can be the intention of those S'uthern
Democrats who advocate division of
the Northern and Southern Dmocrats
as to this administration Tie Presi-
dent has done nothing for which the
South is under any more obligation to
him than the North. If hedoes any
thing deserving the support the Dem
ocracy, why should this support be Sec
tional? There is no rcaso to justify
any division Of the Democ,cy over the
returning board Presidentor his South
etn policy. He has doneonly what bis
oath of office and the reslute actionof
the Democratic House of:epresentatiYes
forced him to do. The cicers appoinsed
by him have not been sy improveIhent
upon those given us b. Grant, and The
removal of the troops inow admitted TO
have been a bargain f the protection OF
guilty Republicans; nd therefore the
friends of this newcoalition have no
right to ask that tn President shall be
paid in Democratiodpport when he has
contracted the ohgation payable in
Democratic charit,to political Offenders.
There is really 1t one reform measure
instituted by th administrator OF Its
