RAKING UP THE ASHES.
Hartford Tlmes-Dem.l

Mr.. Blaine angrily seeks to tear open
the healed-up wounds of the wretched
sectional strife. He does this at time
when the acclaims of a really reunited
country are ascending from all sections.
North and South, East and West. AT
no time for the last quarter of a century
could such a feeling, North and South,
have been shown. James G.. Blaine,
beaten, disappointed, angered, does his
best, by lies and false pleading, to fan
anew out of the raked up ashes the
flames of sectional hatred. On that
devouring blast, sweeping once more
across the land, he hopes to rise after all
to the goal of his SO often disappointed
hopes. He will fail-as he ought to.
His power as a sectional incendiary is
forever gone. He cannot even again be
q Presidential nominee.

INDICATING HIS DEFEAT.
philadelphia Times-Ind.

1t is not common for defeated
Presidential candidate to come to the
front and clearly vindicate his defeat
before the smoke of the hattie has en-
tirely cleared away; but Mr.. Blaine is q
law unto himself, and he has vindicated
with such emphasis his rejection as a
Presidential candidate that there are
few of his considerate supporters who
now profoundly regret the election of
Mr.. Cleveland. Many sincerely regret
the defeat of Republicanism, but there
are few, very few indeed, who to-day re-
gret the defeat of Mr.. Blaine. The pe0-
pie defeated Mr.. Blaine because they
distrusted him; but Mr.. Blaine has
deepened distrust into positive convlc-
ton by his after-election follies, and he
has so thoroughly vindicated his defeat
that all parties and all sections will
welcome Grover Cleveland to the Presi-
dency.

Mobile Register (Dem.): The strug-
gle of twenty-four years is over, and at
last the people have driven from power
a party that dyed its hands in innocent
blood, that robbed the women and chill
dren of half the States of all their pos
sessions, that manacled and chained to
the earth sovereign States that heaped
up mountains of local debt, that robbed
the people at home and disgraced them
in the eyes of foreign powers. This
party is at last overthrown. Thank
God! we enter upon new era of
American history.

THE NATIONS HAPPY ESCAPE.
[PhIlaielphia Record-Ind.l

Much must be forgiven Mr.. Blaine on
account of the state of his feelings. He
Is thoroughly disappointed man. The
ambition of lifetime has been frustra-
ted by the recent verdict of the people.
But, making every allowance for his
ruffied temper, the readers of his intem-
perate speech at Augusta of every
political inclining will find reason for
thanking God that he is not the Presi-
dent-elect of the United States. 1t is
not the utterance of statesman or a
patriot, but of baffled and unworthy
schemer, who is not now, nor ever has
been, a fit man to intrust with great
powers and responsibilities. What he
has said or what he can do will not un-
ravel one thread of the ties which now
bind together restored Union in the
bonds of amity. His bitter speech Is as
false in fact as it is in inference. In
his blind rage he will not see that the
same unfortunate causes which have
made one part of the country Republic
can have made the other Democratic.
His defeat is the beginning of the end
of the thing he affects to deplOre.

BLAINE'S WANT OF TACT.
Iphiladelphia Teleprzph--Ind.l

Mr.. Blaine's warmest admirers have {
never given him much credit for tact.
With oil his fighting" ability-and he
is there admitted to be strOng-it has
never, or hardly ever, been claimed for
him that he shines i'm diplomacy. We
use the word and refer to Mr.. Blaine as
n tactician in the broad sense which
may properly include the political
methods and manners of this prominent
figure In our State affairs. Ofpetty, SUI
perficial tact Mr.. Blaine has plenty; he
knows how to make a point with his
plea that the Chinese must go, but he
cannot make the greater and more nee
essary point of proving in his own prin-
ciples and practices the necessity of
honesty in politics, the want of which
has led considerable proportion of the
people to demand that not only the
Chinese, but the leaders of the Repub-
lican party must go. Like all publicists
whose interest in public affairs is found
ed on anything less stable than absolute
honesty and fidelity to the highest
ideals of government, he never sees the
whole, but only part. This may not
be new to people who have followed
Mr.. Blaine in his various appeals to
party prejudice rather than national
feeling. but we do not see how any one
can read the report of his speech at
Augusta last night without recognizing
with pain the fresh light it throws up
on political methods which for our own
part we are free to term unscrupulous
and dangerous.

SECTIONALISM A DEAD ISSUE.

new bcuIOV2 khdtSsJ oAahuhp1-AeV'J
Since the election we have seen those
papers which made the tariff issue the
most prominent one of the campaign,
and painted in high colors the terrible
effects to business which were to result
from Democratic success, confessing
that there is at least no immediate
danger, and that the tariff is not likely
to be disturbed for some time to come,
and it is significant that in his speech
Mr.. Blaine made not the slightest refer
ence to this question, although his LETT
ter of acceptance and his campaign
speeches were mainly devoted to it, is
itnot likely that there may not be quite
so much danger before the country
from the election of Mr.. Cleveland as
he tries to make out? Can we not af-
ford to wait little and see before we
enter on system of irritation tending
to revive old animosities and to keep
up perpetual ill-feeling? The North is
so powerful and SO conscious of its
strength that it can afford to be calm
and not go into spasms because of o
Democratic success. The entire govern
ment is not i'm the hands of the Demo-
Gratis. The Senate is Republican, and
VIII lCLldiii SO lOl DVthV W OoAhS'
All that the Democrats can do at pres
ent is to get hold of the Offices, and they
will doubtless do it. But any attempt
on their part to act sectionally, to revive
secession doctrines ort to abuse the freed
men would most certainly be followed
by revulsion of ponu'a; feeling which
would give the next House of Represen-
tatives and the Presidency in 1883 to
the Republicans. But it is tolerably
certain that Mr.. Blaine will not be the
man. Having caused a serious division
in the Republican party and led it to
defeat In 1884, he will not be its candi-
date in 1888. What the country needs
now is to let politics alone for while,
to await the course of events and to de-
vote itself to business and seek the way
to recover from the long period of de-
preston through which it has been
passing. There has been good deal of
complaint at the length of the present
campaign, and the prospect of continu-
ing a campaign discussion for four years
at stretch is altogether too much.

CLEVELAND TO CoLoRED MEN.
Some Words Which the Latter Should
Ponder,

Some Words Which the Latter Should
Ponder.
ALBANY, November 20.-Gov. Cleve-
land was asked by an Associated Press
reporter to-day if he was aware of the
delusion among the colored people of
the South that change in admilistra-
ton would unfavorably affect their
condition. Gov. Cleveland replied:
eyes, have been astonished at the
statement that there was an apprehen-
sion existing among the colored peo-
pie that in some way their rights now
secured to them under the laws and
Constitution OF the United States were
in danger from the election of Demo-
cratic President l am even told that
some of them are led to suppose the re-
suit of the recent election means that
they may again be made slaves. All of
this has appeared to me to be so Oabsurd,
and have been so sure that the slight
est intelligent reflection would dislodge
such foolish fears, that | can hardl Y
deem any notice of them necessary.
But there is not the slightest objection
to calling the attention of all who are
in the least uneasy or uncertain upon
this subject to the fact that the title of
the colored people to freedom and all
the right of citizenship cannot be dis
turbed except by change in the Con-
stitution, which it would be absolutely
impossible to make. Besides, the pres
ent condition or status of these people
has been so fully accepted by the entire
country that no one should have the
slightest idea that any attempt will be
made to change it, if there was any
possibility of accomplishing such a
thing.
$50 far as the new administration is
related to this subject, the whole coun-
try can be sure that the lawful power
and jurisdiction of the Executive will
be so exercised that the rights of all
citizens, white or black, under the Cou-
stitution and the law, will be preserved
and protected, and all the advantages
to which they ere entitled by reasons
or their citizenship will be secured to
them. There need be no fear thao either
the Democratic parry or itsnewly elected
administration proposes to oppress or
enslave any part of our population, nor
to destroy the business interests of the
country. We hope, on the other hand,
to do something to benefit the people.
1t seems to me that our efforts IN that
direction would not be aided ifmischiev-
GUS .oaking and dark imiginings should
give place to an earnest epdeavor to in
spire confidence and to make universal
cheerful hope for the future"
The statement that President-elect
Cleveland has engaged quarters at the
Arlington or at any other hotel in
Washington is premature at least.

A VOICE FROM THE TOMB.
Boston Transclipt-Rep.l |

1t is idle to deny the effect this re-
markable onslaught upon the South
will have upon the millions of Mr..
Blaine's supporters and the public mind
at large. What can have been the OBJ
ject? Mr.. Blaine varied the monotony
of his Congressional life by alternately
holding out the olive branch to the
South and teasing the "rebel briga-
diers.n tits inconceivable that he does
not know and appreciate the difficulties
connected with negro suffrage in the
Southern States. Why does he utterly
ignore these in his virtual farewell to
the American people, when they would
have eagerly listened to words of wis
dom and sage counsel from the political
leader receiving large plurality of the
popular vote at the NorthP Mr.. Blaine
should have pondered the proverb in
the good book characterizing "he that
ruleth his spirit" as better ethan he
that Laketh CITY," Evidently his
feelings were too powerful for control;
but his outburst may result beneficially
in one respect, at least. 1t will warn
the South ofthe folly of making inordi-
nate claims upon President Cleveland's
administration. In that way, WHITING
ly or unwittingly, Mr.. Blaine may have
rendered the newly elected Chief Magis-
trate ofthe country conspicuous service.
AS for assigning mission OF even an
attitude to the Republican party ON any
issue, that surely should be left to the
survivors of the conflict. Let the dead
past bury Its dead.

PREACHING NEGRO INsURRECTION.
ALBANY Argus-dem.l

James G. Blaine's speech on Tuesday
night was calculated to produce negro
insurrection against the governments
of the Southern States and the govern
ment of the United States. A man
who has this object in view is an enemy
to the white race. He is tiend. Any
negro insurrection against the govern
ment of the States or of the nation
would be put down at great cost of
lives to both races, and of property,
treasure and suffering to the nation.
No man can produce such an insurrec-
ton. 1t is within the power of the peo-
pie of the United States to prevent it.
1t is also within the power of the heart
of any hater of mankind to wish such
an evil and of any demagogue to preach
it, James G. Blaine breaches it. We
would fain not to believe that he wishes
it. He breaches it for sensation. He
calculates that it cannot occur, but that
by preaching it he can draw notice to
himself and away from the real cause
of his defeat.

FUTILE INCENDIARISM.
Rochester Union and Advertiser-Dem

lAsSSSNNi $3.50
Mr.. Blaine's incendiarism will come
to naught. The people are in no mood
no condition-to have their business
disturbed and their substance destroyed
by giving favor to his proposed four
years of political disturbance that he
may reap from their ruin harvest of
personal gain in 1888. What they de-
sire above all other things now is an
era of freedom from partisan strife-an
era of peace and prosperity, North and
South, East and West. This the ad
ministration of Governor Cleveland
will give them just as soon as it is in
augurated and can enter upon its work.
No men in the Union have keener
Relation of the situation, and of what
is required and expected Of them, than
the Democrats of the Southern States.
And these men stand ready to and will
give most conclusive proof of their de-
sire and purpose to contribute to the
desired end. A special correspondent
of the Ne,O York Herald, sent to
Charleston, s. G., to try the, temper of
the people and see what there is in the
reports of race troubles, telegraphs that
in the absence of Northern incendiar-
ism the South will certainly enter up
on period of unexampled prosperity.
Senator Wade Hampton and other
prominent Democrats are most earnest
in their desires for the improvement
and elevation of the colored people.
Self-interest, if no higher consideration,
impels them to labor in this direction.
Colonel Trenholm stated the whole
case in single sentence when he said
to the Herdld's representative:-"The
Importance of this fully appears when
it is considered that the value of all
property and the profitableness of all
Industries in the Southern States rest
upon the foundation of agricultural
prosperity, and that in turn rests upon
negro labor" With the cooperation
of Democratic administration of the
federal government in sympathy with
the best interests of both whites and
blacks at the South, that section will
soon give evidence of the benefits to
flow over the whole country from the
change voted by the people, Mr.. Blaine
to the contrary notwithstanding.
