IT is quite likely that Southern Bour-
bonism will receive another shock. by the
election on Tuesday, of Joseph Z. Brown
to the United States Senate, by the vote
of the Georgia Legislature. He now
holds seat in the Senate by virtue of
the appointment of Gov. Colquitt, which
appointment has been disturbing ele-
ment in Georgia politics, and entered
largely into the contest for the election
of the Governor. All the hopeless - il
reconcilables in the State denounced
Brown rs traitor to the South. They
had good ground for their animosities.
Senator Brown was 4 delegate to the Re
publican National Convention of 1868.
There has been no time since when he has
been accepted by Democrats of Georgia
as a representative of their party. In fact
he has been at all times an Independent.
He is a man Of great business energy and
capacity His temperament and all his
record place him among the practical
men of affairs who are bound to rescue
the South from sentimental sectionalites
and to putt into cooperation and friend
ly relations with the activities and capt
tai of the North. 1t seems quite likely
that on many of the most important
measures of his administration President
Garfield will have the active support of
such Southern Senators as Hill, Brown
and Malone.

II is amusing to observe how the dis

summation of the efforts, sacrifices, de-
votion and prayers of our noblest states
men and heroes, James A. Garfield is the
Providentially chosen man. The South
ern leaders know him and like him -
to copy phrase from Ingersoll's splendid
eulogy. And even such bitter Demo
cratic paper as the Brunswick, Georgia,
appeal, goes to the length of advocating
the casting of the electoral votes of the
State for Garfield urging that the true
policy of the South in this supreme emer-
gency of duty, and as Il last effort to
save the Constitution and the Republican
form of liberty, is to cast her entire cleo
toral vote for Garfield and make his elec-
ton unanimous. There will be some
interesting politics within the next twelve
months.
