Can't Afford lit.
fCincinnati Commercial !

Give the South the executive branch of the
government, and that intense reserve MAIN
tanned for two years with the hope of carrying
this presidential election by fair promises will
be broken, and the fact that the Democratic
party is the Confederate party and nothing
else, and that the great purpose of the solid
South is to get even with the North for the
war, will not be disguised. The supreme
court will be reorganized, the Southern war
claims will be thick as flies, the Confederate
soldiers will be pensioned, and there will be
immediate action for compensation for slave
owners who suffered losses by emancipation.
The Constitutional amendments will not stand
in the way any more than the Calhoun inter-
pretations of the Constitution interfered with
the march of Northern armies through the
Southern States. The most important of the
war amendments is already nullifed-and the
prohibition of payment for slaves will be
sponged off by the Confederate supreme court,
Northern Democrats finding all things well
that the South proposes and disposes, then as
now. But we are told that this would be un-
popular-that it would break down the party.
Give the Democratic party the general gov
ernment, with its enormous revenues, the sof-
id South without flaw, the custom house and
post office in New York city, the standing
army OF oficeholders, tho tribe OF sycophants
who ALWAYS fell down and worshipped the
Southern politicians-and the Democratic par
ty may defy public opinion IN two-thlrds OF
the States for 20 years They mustn't win
this time-that's the point. The country
cannot afford them victory.

Honesty as a Policy.

Some OF our northern contemporaries have
acquired an unenviable reputation, If not for
inventing southern outrages, at least for lend
ing too ready an ear to reports Of them. Our
able South Carolina contemporary, tie
Charleston News and Courier, will not be sus-
pected of making such mistake and what it
says on the subject is therefore significant.
When it asserts, as it did lately, that the Dem
ocrats i'll its State have become convinced that
whatever the character of the voting, the
Democratic candidates are sure to be on top
when the counting is finished" it makes an
admission of fraudulent electoral practices
which weighs more than many columns Of
stalwart stories That there may be no doubt
as to what its words imply, it goes on to say
that "reliance on irregular methods in the
conduct of elections would infallibly destroy
the Democracy by disgusting and repeIling the
quiet voters who hold no Office and want none,"
and that Gin the long run honesty is the best
policy in elections as in all else." 1t is great
ly to be regretted that, in canvass which
ought to turn upon the free expression OF the
opinion of voters on important principles and
measures public attention must be occupied
with the question whether or not free ex-
preston OF opinion can be had at all in States
which furnish number of electoral votes
lacking only forty-seven of the majority which
names the Pro sident; 1t is impossible, how
ever T. 'ok the gravely suggestive para

anything in the State to give ground for such
an an opinion: . Blaine's popularity here seems to
pc greater than ever. Last night at meeting
in this town, held within gunshot Of the Sena-
tors house, the bare mention of his name in a
speech by Senator Allison, of Iowa, brought
prolonged applause from the audience. A
public man is always least popular in his own
town, where people are too familiar with him
to indulge in hero-worship, however much
they may esteem him. When a mans neigh
bors interrupt a dispassionate argument to
cheer because his name is pronounced, there
could not be much better evidence of their
good feeling toward him.
