POLITICAL NOTES.

|
Ray~ Every candidate on the Texas
Democratic State ticket served in the
Confederate army.
Rag~ Since Marble has given his
"secret chapter the calls are louder
than ever for the whispering mummy
of Gramercy Park to speak.
! Bf35" Postmastmaster General Key
says Mr.. Foster is still a supporter of
President Hayes policy. His enmity
! is only toward the Southern men who
have given it an ungrateful reception.
Rsls" Your Uncle Dick" is not so
much talked of as a candidate for
| President as he was before the failure
of his grocery house at Cincinnati
Huntington HdVbeye.
Rsiy~ Democratic economy is good
thing in its way. 1t saves money, as
farmers let their fences rot down.
Neocarb IN. j. Advertiser.
Bssn General Cary only gets S33 per
| speech in Michigan now, and has ac-
cordingly cut down the number of
"poor, starving workmen" q million
and a half from the number he gave
when he was getting S50.-DetrO1
NelUS.
Rss" 1t is all folly to think of nomi-
mating Tilden again. He could not
carry this State, or any of the Southern
| States. He is dead, and the attempt
| to resuscitate him will kill the Demo-
cratic party. y.-LeTtngton (Ky.) Tran
script.
Be7y~ Tilden couldn't get corporal's
place down here Charlotte IN. c. Ob-
SerUer (Denl.) OF course not. Tilden
pronounced against the payment of the
Southern claims, and that has cooked
his goose down South. - Washington
Republican.
Rsss" The way TO attack the elections
this fall is to proceed on the SUPPOSE
| ton that Republican gains in the South
are almost out of the question, and to
| put the hardest kind of work into all
the close Northern districts. If few
Southern districts happen along to
swell the majority, why so much the
better.-NeU York Tribune.
Bsy@ The sum total of Democratic
| policy i'll the South is the condign
punishment of venal crime committed
by Republicans and negroes, and am
nesty for all crimes committed by
Democrats. The Democratic party
has never been strong enough any
where to declare its independence of
the dangerous classes. - Philadelphia
North Anlericdn.
DSlsn We arc quite within the record
when we say that the tendencies of the
Democracy of to-day are not toward
reform, but toward decentralization,
not toward q safer and more guarded
policy on the part of the Government,
but toward policy in the last degree
reckless and perilous, not conservative,
but destructive.-Ne1C York Times.
Re7sa Il think my beloved country is
, going to destruction, No instruction
nor even recrudescence can save it.
Even MantOn Marble is renegade. L
: suspect the great fraud persuaded
, him to write that Secret Chapter of
Political History Reform is played
out in this country. There is nothing
substantial but railroad wrecking. y
S. d. IEiden.
Bsg% In Missouri the old rebel ele-
ment has got such a foothold, and is so
: domineering in the Democratic party,
that an old Union man declared the
other day that If this thing. keeps on
t we shall have to 90 before the Legisla-
ture, take the oath of allegiance to the
rebel Confederacy, and get our Union
, disabilities removed"
) Rs7g@ There is more Government mon
ey, paper and coin together in circu-
lation in the United States now than
| there was in 1873 before the panic;
. more than three times as much paper
! money as there ever was at any time
before the war, and the amount per
1 capita to the population of the country
: is considerably more than twice as
! great as it was at the beginning OF the
war Indianapolis Journal.
e Bsy~ When Democratic committees
are charging the business depression
: up to the Republican party, it is well
enough to remember the effect of the
y Potter investigation on business. The
= Inauguration of the revolutionary move
! ment struck trade just at the time when
9 there was encouraging symptoms of
g revival, and every business man has a
I, keen appreciation of the destructive
: force of the blow. Columbus Journal.
e Bsy The Okolona (Nliss.) Southern
States gives the following interpreta-
: ton of Southern sentiment of to-day:
E "The black has no right under the sun
S to vote. He has never had the right.
The ballot came into his possession by
illegal means, and il must be taken
. from MIN. InlS 10 DOutlcIu SChtlliShO
: to-day And yet there are Southern
Democrats who plead with the colored
men to vote the Democratic ticket.
Eag- Ex-Gov. Palmer's frank crid-
cisms on the Illinois Democrats have
/, stirred up a lively breeze in that State.
4 The Democratic press sets him down
fatty as an avowed enemy of his party,
o and says he has no more right to speak
! for the two hundred thousand Democrats
e of Illinois than Zamiel has to speak for
= a congregation of saints. The trouble
: with the Governor is that his Republi-
: can antecedents created in him habit
e of telling the truth-and truth always
: acts like red rag on the untamed De-
/, mocracy-M Y. Tribune.
o B@ No generous action in the South
q or on the part of Southern representa-
d tives has failed to receive sincere rec
$ ognition from Republicans. We want
n no sectional divisions. We shall do
4 nothing to create them. We shall ap-
i peal to the patriotic instincts and COM
d mon interests of the whole country. But
q the people of the North would be false
;. to their own safety, if, when they see
n the South uniting to secure control of
v the Government with undisguised and
v dangerous designs, they did not unite
e in a similar manner for the public veal.
l. This is not waving the bloody shirt, il
/. is not exciting any antagonisms; il is
i simply self-protection and the highest
d patriotism. Albany JournGL
If Bg~ A vast number of the people of
4 the North refuse 20 believe that the
,r South seriously meditates demand for
IS the payment of these claims. They
st forget how they would act themselves
W under similar circumstances, and they
g brush the whole matter away as toe
Z. trifling for serious consideration. The
Democrats, on the other hand, insist
