Think Nv it. sHThe South. wich is
the Dimocrisy, is all safe back into

Ez before the war, we are the Dim
ocratlc party, and the Northern
Dlmocrlsy is; ez before, merely aux
illary to us. The Dimocrisy NV the
North shocd realize the fact that its
place is to do our biddin, and obey
US in all things, humbly, and with
the respect they owe sooperior race.
What we insist upon is that the
Northern Dimocrisy throw off all dis
gulse, set aside all nonsense, and
come up manfully, and indorse thes
propersishens:

the South bein restored to its old DO

2. That inasmuch ez the South is
back agin and the hull bizness is set
tied, the Southern soljer must stand
on the same footin with the Northern
soljer, only little more so, ez the
Southern sojer has got the consola-
shen NV victory to brace up onto.
Wat l mean is that while we admit
both sides wuz rite we don't believe
1t, tho), the late war shell be cvuntid
ez nothin, and all soljers wlch fought
no matter under wich flag, shell be
countid ez soljers NV our common
kentry, and be treatid precisely alike.

the Southern sojer must be penshun-
ed tile same ez the Northern soljer.
Ez l sed before, hevin to bear the
lgnomlny NV defect the Southern sol
Jer shood hev bigger penshun. but
we are magnanimus and will be salts

to the last fence-rail and sweet pota-

item. We Nv the crossroads Is in
terestid in this, for John Morgan's
command raidid thro here a dozen
times and left devastashen in their
track. He left nary chicken. mule
or bari NV whisky behind him. That
old saint, Deeken Pogram, must hey
his pathway to the tomb smoothed
by payment for his lone mule, CT
there is no jestis in man. :
D. We want peece that shell be

and money. We NV the South will
