Detroit POST
The Democratic Party Obedient to
to the South.

to the South.
Can the Democratic party be trusted to re-
sist or deny the demands of the South?
The South demanded the annexation of
Texas. The Democracy did its bidding.
The South demanded war with Mexico
The Democratic party forced it,
The South demanded the repeal of the Mis-
souri, compromise. The Democratic eparty
helped to repeal it.
The South demanded that slavery should be
nationalized. The Democratic party assented
to it.
The South demanded that Kansas should be
made slave State. The Democratic party
tried to make it so.
The South demanded the right to destroy
Abolition and Republican documents found in
its mails. The Democratic party was silent
while it did it,
The South insisted that the Union was but a
rope of sand to be broken by any State at will.
The Democratic party assented to the doc
trine.
The South denied that the Government had
the power to coerce a seeding State. A Dem
ocratic President and the Democratic party
agreed with it.
The South denied the right Of the Govern
ment to emancipate the slaves. The Demo
cratic party sided with it.
The South denied the power of the Govern
ment to reconstruct the Southern States on a
basis of loyalty and freedom. The Democratic
party Joined in the denial.
The South claimed the right to occupy seats
in Congress while the blood Of the war was yet
dripping from its garments. The Democratic
party insisted that it had this right.
The South at the end of the war, claimed
that the Government had no right to demand
guarantees for the future The Democratic
party said the same thing.
The South claimed the right to exclude all
colored people from participation in the Gov.
erment. The Democratic party agreed.
The South claimed the right to exclude col
ored people from iuries. Again the Democrat
ic party agreed,
The South claimed the right to exclude COL
ored people from puplic conveyances and
places of public resort. And the Democratic
party sustained the claim.
The South insisted upon putting rebels who
served in the Mexican war, including Jeffer-
son Davis, upon the pension rolls. And Dem
ocrats voted for this.
The South has insisted that the Democrats
should be deaf and dumb and blind to the hor-
rible methods which have produced the solid
South and the Democrats have been SO.
The list of Southern demands is almost end
less, but it has not yet exhausted humiliating
Democratic acquiesence. That party has been
the servant of the South. 1t has crouched at
its command; it has wallowed at its order; it
has been plant to its touch and obedient to its
directions. No instance can be pointed out
where the Democracy has made honorable re-
sistance to any one of the most outrageous and
indefensible of Southern demands Not one!
How then can it be trusted when the South
stands before it with its hundreds of millions
of claims, and its demand that the war legis-
lation shall be stricken from the statute books?

Every one of these States-and at least one
other, North Carolina-would be Republican
upon a full vote, free ballot and fair count
General Hancock knows it, Every Democrat
knows it. But simply to serve the purposes of
the illustration, let say that these FIVE states
are fairly Republican. They give, all told, 80
electoral votes, which will honestly belong to
James A. Garfield. The South could then
give General Hancock only 80 electoral votes
at best and he could never by any possibility
be President of the United States. By all means
let us have "a full vote, free ballot and fair
count.
