Gen. Jno. B. Gordon, in New York, and
Hon. Jno. r. Tucker, in Baltimore, re-
joiced that they could qaolv claim the stars
and stripes as theirs, since the election
of Cleveland. That was as much as to say
that the flag Of the country ought not to
be loved and recognized except it be car
ried by Democratic hands and under DEM
ocratic auspices. That was the sentiment
in 1861. Because the people decreed that
the Democratic party should go out of
power and that the government should
pass into the control of the Republican
party. the Democrats attempted to break
up the Union and mutilate the Stars and
Stripes. The flag belongs to the whole
country, and the man OF men who are not
willing to recognize it under all and every
circumstance are not worthy to be citi-
zens Of a Republic constituted of a
Union of the States of which the Stars and
Stripes are the emblem. Such a pernicious
sentiment as that uttered by Messrs. Cor
don and Tucker ought to be frowned
down everywhere by Democrats as well
as Republicans, for it is not par
ticipated in or approved by the people
either of the North OF the South. There
is no sufficient excuse for intelligent gem
tlemen, in representative positions and
looked to to reflect public sentiment
INDUCING in such indefensible express
sions. They simply offer pretext for the
evil disposed to magnify the offence, and
hold our entire people responsible for what
they unguardedly say. No man can be a
good citizen who regards party as para
mount to country and the obligations of
partizan duty higher than the claim the
flag of the country and the Union it rep
resents impose.
