SOUTHERN SENTIMENT

1--WE have this time. sail represpn =
tative Southern Democrat. given not
only our solid vote but our money also.
With our money he has carried four
Northern states. Southern Democrats
have contributed literally, and may say
that it is question whether without our
money in addition to our votes Cleveland
would have been elected. Our title to
consideration is perfect, and there is M
reason why we shGul1 stand back ana
not take our share of the fruits OF the
victory we have won"
Southern Democrats here are for IA
complete turn about They do not take
to the ideas of the independent Repuh-
licans about the civil service. Their
notion of reform is that the Republicans
be uined out auI that Democrats ne put
in their place. They rese MT the sugges-
ton that the "mugwumps. as they are
learning to call the followers Of CErtis
and Schurz ami their Yankee coadjuSters
in Boston, shall have anything To say
about what Cleveland shall do or what
the policy of his administration shall be.
"These boiling Republicans. said a
Virginia DeinOGTdl, vented 10 Uedt

it let them be satisfied What they have
done does hCt enttIe them to share in the
formation or the spoils OF the new ad-
ministration
An Alabama Democrat said: "This is
Democratic victory-the restoration of
the Democratic party to power. There
is no better way to decide who shall have
the lions share than by seeing where the
electoral yo es come from Of Cleve-
lands 2l9 votes the North gave only Sc.
All the others are from the Suuth.'
Already there is much of this kind of
talk here. Throug ghout all these years
there have remained in Washington a
number of old school Democrats, import
ant once and believing themselves to be
no less SO nov, who are coming forth to
have their share IN shaping things They
adopt the Southern idea as indicated
above. Mr.. Cleveland will be fortunate
if, when he comes to Washington. be

Comments.


"What made you say Chapman would
rebuild before he bad announced that be
would do so?" asked a gentleman of the
Sunday Telegraph. Because we knew
he would rebuild. He is the kind of a
man who could not be prevented from
rebuilding. He is too enterprising to stop
at fires assault. He thinks too much
of Milwaukee to surrender He could
not be induced to disappoint his thous
aDds of friends by refusing to rebuild.
We knew Chapman would rebuild before
that west wall fell. 1t is the most natur.
al thing foc him to do, And yet, we
thank him, in behal! of all Milwaukee,
Tor rebuilding; Milwaukee, who has re-
cieyed so many and such substantial
benefits from bis energy apd enterprise;
Milwaukee, whose material interests
have been greatly advanced by the good
work he has done in drawing trade to her
borders. and in holiday trade from Chica
go. We thank him in behalf of the
thousands who have for years been in the
habit of trading at his attractiye store; in
behalf of the three or four hundred ladies
and gentlemen who haveihaG pleasant en-
ployment in and about his popular es-
tablishment We thank him in behalf
Of every young business man who by
watching bis example, will learn much
OF value to him in case disaster goes his
way"
The friendly words said for Mr.. Chap
man by the press of Wisconsin since the
destruction of his magnificent store, would
make large volume. The following,
from the Green Bay Advocate, is fair
SAMPLE o. the press expressions:
1T will be welcome news to the entire
Northwest, as well as to Wisconsin
proper that Mr.. Chapman has d cide,l
to rebuild his palatial store in Milwaukee,
that was burned last Thursday. 1t was
the handsomest store in this country, and
40 tar as our experience goes, in Europe;
for abroad they 90 not expend much up
on their stores in the way of ample floor

THE GERMAN VOTE WAS TRUE.

Every where throughout the States in
which large number of Republican
German voters are to be found they
voted honestly and with their full voting
strength for Blaine and Logan. This
fact is demonstrated by the returns of the
vote from all directions In Chicago
Republican majority reaching nearly the
highest figures on record was given. For
this result the solid German Republicans
of Chicago are entitled o full measure of
credit. The German voters even on State
issues were not led so far as:ray by the
fctltions and fraudulent Democratic ap-
pealS in favor of personal liberty" as
to give Carter Harrison majority in
Cook county over General Oglesby. The
German Republicans Of Chicago is un-
broken and will 80 remain in the future.
In our neighboring city of Milw4 4ukee,
with German preponderance among its
voting population, the Republican State
and local candidates all received majori-
ties In former times the largest propor-
ton of he German vote in Milwaukee
WAS Democratic A complete revolution
has occurred in their political opinions.
This fact is more noticeable at the pres
ent time as the wealthy syndicate Of
Milwaukee brewers. with all the saloons
dependent upon them, were arrayed on
the Democratic side.
In Cincinnati, Cleveland, Buffalo and
other cities with large German pOpula-
ton, the Republican vote is fully up to
high water mark. showing that there was
no break in the German Republican
lines. but that they all voted, and that
their votes were counted.
Carl Schurz; Oswald Ottendorfer,
General Sigel, Boss Hesing and other
impudent German dpmagogues evidently
do not cary around the German vote in
their breeches pockets, or, if il was there,
they did not produce it. Henceforth the
enlightened Republican German vote
need not 'e again distrusted, and it may
be as certainly counted upon as that Of
any other class of Republican voters.-

THE REBEL YELL.

The boys in blue who faced the South
ern Democracy on many hard-fought
field do not need TO be told what the
''rebel yell' means. They remember
that sharp, short yelp-a cross. between
snarl and a bark-which filled the air
with its strident tones as d gray-clad line
came on to meet the Federal troops in the
shock of battle. 1t was as different as it
was possible Tor a shout to be from the
clear, ringing cheers that rolled along the
lines of the armies of the Union in def
ant answer. 1t the typiied the bitter
determination Of the South to conquer, If
possible; and now, as it rises from South
ern Bourbon throats, it means precisely
the same thing. Twenty years ago the
struggle MAS waged with the weapons of
honorable war; to-day the same struggle
is carried on by fraud, by balldozing, by
every method possible 10 override the will
of free people. The cause that went
down in the dust of defeat at tAppomattox
is to- day considered triumphant by fraud.
The BOurbons can not contain them
selves for Joy. Republican newspapers
are tabooed IN the South The Northern
Democratic journals, filled with lying
assertions that the result of the Presiden-
tial contest is assured for Cleveland. are
their news media, and they rejoice as
they did when the Federal arms met
their first great reverse ri Bull Run. in
1861 The rebel yell rises iprcely ex-
ultant on the Southern air, and the word
goes round that ''the Southern Confeder.

more definite. The new work for the
Republican party to accomplish is the
security of the ballot box from corrupt
influences and the protection OF every
citizen in the right OF suffrage.
In all the Southern States, under the
present order of things, sufferage is a
free. The vote. asst is declared by
local and general returning boards, does
not indicate what was the actual major
ity OF votes cast, and bad laws, terror
ism and violence exclude large proper
ton Of the voters from the polls. The
Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution
is absolutely nullified at the South, so far
as the votes OF the enlranchised race are
permitted TO affect political results. By.
netarieus devises of different descrip-
tiops, in creating troublesome technical
qualifications tor voters, by rendering the
polls difficult of access, and by tricks to
dupe negro ignorance and simplicity.
Southern laws and usages have almost as
completely stripped the colored race Of
its voting rights as if they we're still in
slavery. Or course, few negroes are
permitted, or perhaps are induced, 10 vote
AS a sham and ptetense But not enough
negroes are ever permitted to vote to
defeat the white minority. and iheir voice

If the colored Republicans OF the South
had been permitted to vote at the recent

honestly counted, there would not have
been from the hour when the polls closed
a doubt of Blane's election. Half the
Southern States with free elections and
