orders and revolts reported recently from
various points OF the Republic, though in
spring no serious fears, continue notwith
standing the assertion that all was quiet

The situation Of the country Is confused

General Gonzales to the Capital.
The late disorders at MaZatlin were
serious, and q regular battle was fought OF

mission appointed by President Diaz to

consolidation and payment OF interest
on the public debt, has rendered q report,
saying that Encouragement Of the debt
requires first OF all an augmentation Of the
resources Of the government. Further.
more, the commission, considering the
difficulty and seriousness Of It's charge,
asked for detailed instructions from the
Executive. President Diaz in answer gave
the commission ample facilities, merely
that the project OF law be
feasible.

Kansas, where, under the leadership OF
Kate, old Johns daughter, the murders
and robseries began. Mrs. Bender de.
clares she had no personal hand in these
crimes. The first man killed by them was
a man named Brown. Very soon after the
first murder two strangers were killed.
The woman was asked whether she
remembered about whole family being
Killed and said, "yes do" There was

Upon all these questions Garfield and
Hancock were antipodes!- The most and
the best that can be said for Hancock is
that he was possibly utterly indifferent as
to all that was involved in the great issue.
He followed the course OF the Democratic
party, and we all know that that was
steadily Southwark and slaveryward. The
accepted dogma Of the leaders was that
Republicans were fanatics; that they
were Black Republicans; that negroes had
no rights that white men were bound to
respect; that Seward and Greeley, Chase
and Sumner were sectional agitators; that
labor was naturally mud.sill," and
that lin the language Of stephens) slavery
was the corner stone that the builders had
unwisely rejected in the old Union, but
that had become the rightful head OF the
corner in the Confederacy.
1t is no wonder that two men thus
differing SO widely in their antecedents
should differ so widely in their present
status. Garfeld's candidacy stands for all
that the success OF his convictions in the
war represents, while that Of Hancock's
stands for all that is to-day reactionary
against the success Of said principles. and
for all OF the old ideas that are in any way
recoverable as dominant policy in the
Nation. The one represents the new
national spirit and lie begotten by the
war, and the other the old animus that
rebels sgainst the supremacy of national
ideas. The one represents the progressive
spirit OF the North as to diversified in
dustries, and the other the sectional and
Bourbon bias for free trade and King
Cotton. The one thoroughly believes in
the constitutional amendments and recon-
struction acts, and was himself part and
parcel Of their enactment, the other, after
agreeing with his party in 1858 that they
were Revolutionary, null and void" now
accepts them under fear OF another defeat
at the hands OF the people.
Under the lead OF Garfield as President
our country will go forward in an onward
march to the consummation OF all the
grand possibilities growing out of the war.
Under Hancock there will come another
struggle such as occurred under Johnson.
The Democratic party and its chosen
President will be lesgued to make the
South even more solid than it is to-day.
To become more solid 1t will become
more despotic.. The terrorism that is now
dominant there will hold undisputed
sway, and the social and political ostra.
cism Of tho hapless whites who have been
known as Republicans, will be as complete
as that Of the Poles under the Hspsburgs
OF Austria.
West Virginia as a part Of this Solid
South will be. as in times past, territory
to be avoided by European immigration.
We will have new experience OF our old
fate as the tail end Of kite TO which We
are artiilcially attached; position that
for fifty years in the days Of slavery was
our bane in all that concerned our prog.
ress and pre- 'sperity.
