The point that we made, in an alluslon
to the Drmocrutslate article on the alleged
Outcrv Of the Radicals for "solid North"
was that Just as long as the "Solid South"
voted after the above style, and Just as
long as Democratic editors denied or be-
Titled the frauds that were perpetrated In
order to achieve such results as those in
South Carolina, just that long would the
cry Of the Radicals be responded to
sympathetically by the people OF the
North.
The Democrat offsets our reference to
Southern frauds by alleging the perpretra'
lion of as great, or greater, frauds at the
North, Us in New Yorkand Massachusetts,
Now there may have been frauds perpetra-
ted in those two States, and yet We have
really seen no evidence OF 1t. Ben Butler
wrote letter in which he accounted tor
his defeat, in part, by the intimidation OF
bis friends. And yet his heavy vote was IN
such manufacturing centres as Lowell ana
Lynn. The Democrat would not take Ben
Buffers word for much in politics and
neither would we. And inasmuch as nc
body found issue tickets rolled up by the
dozen in the ballot boxes in favor OF Beni
opponent, and inaslauch as no "red shir,
riders" appeared at Belts meetings aho
frightened him or his friends, we are IN
cIinel to the opinion that he had d decent
show for all there was in his candidacy
lie poIed tremendous vote, and as the
"boys" and roughs were very largely on
his side they were not likely to be crowd
ell 1.-THE polls. The reverse, however, wa.
the case in South Carolina. The "boys
and the roughs in the South are, as NasOy
puts it, "ferninst the Niger" and they
take good care that large percentage o.
the latter vote shall be on their side Oh
else stay away from the polls. This is the
difference between voting ut the North
aud at the South.
