SPRINGFIELD. ILL, Nov. I7.-[Spec-
ial. win A. Herman, eX-editor of the /
OkoloTa States. is now In Springfield, |
and In an interview with reporter Of /
the Slate Journal, expressed himself /
as yerJ happy over the result of the |
election. BE said:
itol and the White House, but / have |
no Doubt we shall have. majority in /
the judicial department of the gov |
eminent within a year from to-day.
Cleveland viii have 20 yield to the con-
troll of the Southern wing Of the |
Democracy, whose sentiments were en-
dorsed by seven-tenths OF our party |
during the War, and are endorsed at |
heart BY them to-day. Union Demo
Gratis and Beecher Black Republicans
or Independents constitute q feeble |
faetioia In our camp, and We have only
used them "a tools"
When asked to give his views of the |
ultimate object of the Democracy I'M |
der the control of its Southern wing, |
he sail:
The establishment Of the doctrine |
of State rights. the subVersiOn OF the |
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, |
compensation for slaves lost By the |
emancipation, and q gradual reduction /
of tha tariff with view TO placing |
this league Of sovereign States.upOn a /
free trade basis, and, at some conVen-
lent period, the pensioning of Exon
fedenHe soldiers"
Further on he says the Southern De-
mocrilcy are firmly fixed in the |
doctrines of Calhoun ana JEFF Davis, |
and -nullify the Niger vote by means |
of rifte-balls, raw-hldes, tissue ballots, |
and bsrroriEing l laugh in my sleeve |
when / think OF what is coming, and |
how cheap your Independent Republic
cans will feel when our party begins to /
reverse the last results of the War"
When asked Il he thought Cleveland |
would submit to the dietation of the !
Solid South, he said there was no ques- |
ton about ft, and "by the time the /
added, I'VE of the South will have the |
government so thoroughly in our hands |
that we will be in position TO defy your /
minority party. But let me tell you |
one thing: We viii not 90 out of the /
Union 70 establish our supremacy. We /
adopt the stars and Stripes as our SYM
Dol, and will treat the last one of You /
as rebels unless you submit to our con-
troll This Is what we ought to have /
done In 1861, and this is precisely what |
we will do IL you insult majority of |
the people OF the United States by
electing another Lincoln in 1895, and |
elecung him by a minority vote. / i
spealt by the book. / am lately from /
the South, and / simply repeat the pro-
gram OF the prominent Democrats l II
met there. / consider the election of |
Cleveland as a sort of moral cateclysm. L
Ii is rebuke to the boys in blue, and /
a VindicatiOn Of the guards ia gray. 1t /
rings Lincoln out as a traitor, and i
rings JEFF Davis in as patriot From /
this Time forward the social sentiment /
OF the country viii side with the De- /
mociacy, and the result will be seen on 1
the Tages of history. The coming gen
Grafton, influenced by Democratic en-
YiroIlments, will grow up to feel that L
the Invasion of the South was an in
fernil outrage and the enfranchise-
menit OF the Niger an act the
crimlnality Of which was exceeded i
only by It's folly" II
Waen the reporter expressed doubt
OF any purpose to pension the Southern Il
soldiers, Herman said il was no fancy
OF his own. 1T is an open secret in the /,
Solid South that societies have been
organized In that section for the pur-
pose or demanding these pensions at L
the proper time, and likewise payment
for the manumitted slaves. II ow
personally several prominent planters
who have kept accurate lists OF their
former bond-seTvants and the value
OF them at the time Lincoln set them
free
When it was suggested that the Re-
publicans would make foreible resist Ii
anee before they would permit all these ,
Oolests TO be accomplished by legisla-
ton, he said: And il they do make :
ARMED resistance, we will have the Il
armH and the treasury OF the United L
Stats TO back us, TO say nothing of the !.
Did l0nfederates. No, sir. We have /.
the Black Republicans down at last.
thank heaven! and we propose to keep !
thenl there. We propose to make the !
name Of Lincoln and his hirelings a |
stensh in the nostrils of mankind. Wei
propose TO revOlutionize the govern /,
nent and model it after that of JEFF /.
DAVIS
Whatever the public may think of /.
bis sort, there is no Disgusting the fact / !,
hat Herman cUnseientiously believes !,
very word Of il, and solemnIy pro-
est:l that in what he says he does not :
anybody.
