The Lynchburg Virginian alludes to Gen.

why the South Should be '.SOlid .

After the surrender and the Presidents
proclamation of peace, the Southern States
and Southern people were restored to the
Union, AMI to all the rights guaranteed by the
Constitution, except such as had been for
feited by the war and by laws of Congress.
II after that time a tax was unconstitutionally
levied upon the people Of the South. or their
property forcibly or unawfully taken BY the
Government, re hare the right 10 demand
compensation therefor.- Lane Rock (4yk.)
Gazette.
There will be no lack of reasons for the
payment OF Southern claims if the Solid
South shall succeed in placing its friends
in office. Nor will there be any DISPOSE
ton on the part of those who are ALWAYS
grateful for tavors received to turn deaf
ear to the importunate petitions of their
Southern friends. Their claims will be
held as n sacred obligation to be met and
cancelled at the first opportunity.
These claimants have confidence in the
good intentions of their Northern allies,
who have already shown their willingness
to be very lberal-with the peoples mon
ey. Nor are they to be permitted to lose
this confidence through lapse OF memory
The democratic press keeps reminding
them of what the democratic party has al
ready done for them, reasonably assum-
ing that what they have attempted will
be received as an earnest of what they
will do.
The most recent and most significant
reminder of the good intentions of the
democratic party toward these Southern
claimants. who feel that they have "a right
to demand compensation" ''for what they
have suffered from their devotion to the
"lost cause" ionnd expression in the Ar
gus recently. That Journal is properly
anxious that the Solid South should not.
at this critical moment. lose confidence in
the Northern democracy and it could
have said nothing more likely to hold its
Southern friends than it did say few
House passed the 1924. o0o. 900 Southern
claims bill. but a republican Senate de-
feated it. To be sure. that bill sent these
claims to the Court of Claims for consid-
Grafton and adjudication; but the opposite
action Of the two Houses upon it was sig
nificant of the sympathy and purpose Of
the representatives of the two parties. The
democrats csst an affirmative. the repub-
licans negative vote, As the vote in
volved the snug sum of 1921. 000. 200.
nothing is more likely than that those in
terested will manifest their appreciation
OF this conflicting action of the representa-
tives of the opposing parties. by voting
for Hancock, Albany ,Ioaral.
