The Cincinnati Enquirer has no patience with
Senator PendletOn. whose English act TO create
an oface-holding class it predicts win make the
democratic victory barren or spoils In the plain
est sort OF anguageit declares that the democratic
politicians expect and ought 10 have 'the rewards
OF Office" and 1t tells such faithful democrats
that they are now TO be excluded from participa-
ton in the public service, thanks to the Pendleton
act. President Cleveland, according TO the Enq,H-
re, would Ike 10 appoint TO Office ''honeSt. worthy
democrats, no matter how meager In education
they might be- but VIII be checked by "a repubi-
can Senate. with the PendletOn bill as club" 1t
therefore urges the Large class OF democratic poll
-tCians who have been loyal In season and out and
who have labOred year after year. for victory not
TO build their hopes too high, and to be ready for
the worst,-namely, to see republicans retained In
Office "till removed by death or for cause"
IL IS sad 70 hear these dirge-like strains min9ing
with the pieans OF triumph. And the wall will
change TO roar If it really does appear that Cleve
land intends to execute the law which PendIeton
was instrumental In ENGRAVING on the statutes
Hunger viii bring tigers out OF the Jungle into
populous cities, in the face OF capture and certain
death; VIII drive men to assault and robbery with
the prison in plain sight; will overcome the force
of nature and lead 10 cannibalism and other
strange and awful crimes; and 1t may even break

Mr.. Blaine, in his Augusta speech last evening,
presented with his usual point the argument for
continued republican ascendency at the north as
foil 10 the '.Solld south" He set forth by various
figures and Illustrations the practical inequalities
q suffrage. due to the intimidation OF the negro
VOTE and he drew a dark picture of the danger to
northern labor springing from the competition OF
race In virtual slavery. He also maintained that a
record of devotion to the "lOst cause" is to-day
almost essential TO political prefernent all through
the south
The justice OF some OF the speakers criticisms
ness Of his plea that they are already admitted,
and have been for years. IL Is no news that the
majority OF the democratic party comes from the
south; or that the leaders OF that majority were
the leaders OF the eonfederacy II was with fun
knowledge OF these facts and in spite OF them that
the north refused TO soIidify, and voted 20 elect
Cleveland IL IS to be presumed, therefore, that
the voters felt that at this time the dangers from
the predominance OF the solid south were Of less
Immediate Importance than others which were
pushed 70 the front. Mr.. Blaine himself paid only
slight attention to the sectional ISSUE basng his
campaign on the tariff, which he maintained was
the vital question, and that on which the party
would rest its case.
Now that the campaign IS over and It's person.
atieS banished IL is quite possible that interest in
the southern problem may revive. The democratic
party has won only after hard fight and by the
slightest preponderance. II Is distinctly its good
behavior Ii it appears that its rule is prejuGical
to mankind in any section OF the country, the
people can be trusted To see their danger and defend
their rights.
