OF LAFouRcnE.

SEoRETARY SHERMAN has been so
long accustomed to maligning south
crn democrats that he supposed he
carried license to do so. Recently,
in a speech before the national repub-
lican committee, in New York City,
he said "And now you are asked to
surrender all you have done into the
hands of Wade Hampton and the Ku
Klux, and the little segment in the
North that is called the democratic
party" Soon afterwards Senator
Hampton wrote to Secretary Sherman,
inquiring if the latter was correctly re-
ported as having made the above re-
mark, and if so whether he meant there
by to connect Hampton, directly or
indirectly, with the Ku .Klux Khan.
Sherman replied that while he didn't
remember the precise words, he pre-
sumed the reporter of his speech had
correctly stated, in a condensed way,
the reporters idea of what he (Shcr-
man had said; that he did not mean
to connect Hampton personally with
the Ku Klux Khan, and was aware that
in one or two important instances
Hampton had resisted and defeated
its worse impulses; yet, Hampton and
his leading southern associates were
enjoying political power derived from
the atrocities of the Ku Klux, and in
than sense were properly classed as CO.
partners with the Ku Klux.
Senator Hampton then replied, say
ing, "Your letter has been received,
and, as yon do not disclaim the Ian
guage to which ] called your atten-
tion, ! have only TO say that in using
it.you uttered what was absolutely
false, and what you knew to be false.
Aiy address Will be Columbia, >. Z. i
am your obedient servant,
WADE HAnpToS."
And Sherman closes the correspon-
dence, not, of course, ''as usual
among gentlemen" bnt by saying he
believes what he said is true, and can
be shown by public records and as a
matter of history, and that he pub
fishes the correspondence and twill let
the public decide between u.s."
One thing, at least, the public has
decided, after reading the correspon-
dence, and that is that the Hon. John
Sherman is.a poltroon. But then he
has Conlsling for company.

financial question, and the issue which Mr.
Bayard's resolution presents Is made Tho
leading feature OF the Democratic campaign

The Democrats make grave mistake IN
opposing the migration OF negroes from Inc
South TO northern States. For every re
publican vote gained by the planting OF a
negro in northern community there VIII
be a loss OF hundreds. II anything was
needed TO confirm Indiana in her Demo
cratic tendency, this will make confirmation
strong as proofs Of Holy Writ. This unior-
tunatc race, whose suilerings make me
hearts Of all kindly. disposed people acne
may be imposed on at the South, we sup
pose such TO be the fact. The negroes
were rendered obnoxious to the whites by
the Infamous use Of them by escaped con-
victs. called carpet. baggers, in robblhgthelr
political opponents. But such abuse 8 no
thing to what the blacks will feel at Inc
North. While soutberners, through the
association OF generations. have felt ana
feel kindly towards their late slaves, the
North hates them with an unreasonlng Dit
terness and contempt difficult to compre-
bend or measure. Let the cry be raised IN
any northern Stale OF Z" Authorization.
and that State Will be lost to the party he'd
responsible.

The bell-punch style OF collecting lqu0r
taxes in Virginia has 6zzled out. The bell
punch is a very good machine, but men are
not automatically honest. 1t is estimated
that not more than one drink out OF five Is
registered The bel.punch was invented
to wipe out the debt Of Virginia, and II
honestly run would have turned in Sl,OO0,-
600 year into the State Treasury. Bur, as
in many other cases, no sooner does man
bring out an invention before somebody
else brings up little better one. Virginia
has one now that discounts the bell-punch
as much as that remarkable little Invention
discounts the old style OF bringing up by
hand. 1t is called the readiuster." The
readiuster is the most wonderful invention
OF the age-more wonderful than the eiec-
trio highland before long we may expect
it TO suppIant both the bell-punch and the
lightning calcuIators.
