While the democrats would not
lose anything by taking a southern
candidate, they certainly would gain
nothing by it. The south as long
as it remembers the corrupt and I'M
constitutional course which the re-
publicaus so long followed in re
gard to it, is not likely to be other
than strongly democratic. 1t will
vote for almost any decent man
whom the democrats put up. They
would not increase their strength
in the south by nominating 4 south
ern candidate. 1t is in the north that
they have been weak, and they have
selected their candidates tor the
presidency with reference to the
north.-New York Sun.

Aaron. This will work revolution

Aaron was one, who have the right,
