A South Carolina Editor Opens His
Ewes.

The two sections began life together
and formed a Government. The
South had the advantage of soil,
climate, and wealth. At the end OF
"a years the two graDpled and fought.
The Yankee section came to the fight
richer and stronger than our South
ern section, and beat US into the earth
while we did our best. To-day these
YANKEES are rich in everything,
while we are poor in everyt hing but
manhood and wolnanhOOd, and have
less than we began with one hundred
years back. The same Yankees furn-
iSh the bulk of the capital We use,
the food we eat, the clothes we wear,
the books we read ami study, and
the high grade TRACKING in the nor.
NAL schools of the Southern States.
Almost every convenience of life
and invention of art or science we
know comes from these same people,
who have in ten years done more
with Florida than the Florida ma
tives have done in fifty. Almost any
one of their large communities could
buy the whole South for a park if
they liked it for that purpose. In a
fight they could crush us like egg
shells. In politics they are our mas
tiers, and we have to hold our breath
in every zig campaign to avoid Of.
Tending them. Their percentage of
ignorance is one tenth of ours.
When trouble comes on Us we de-
pend on them for most of the help,
and get it.
The world knows them as America
and us as outlying and unconsidered
provinces. They are producing the
representative poets, painters, and
authors Of the country, while we
trail along behind with our eyes fixed
on them, hardly daring to hope that
we may become as strong, and rich,
and enlightened as they are by years
of hard work.
The majority understand that
while we were making stasesmen,
and warriors, and ruling politicians,
the Yankees were making territory,
building manufactures and develop

minds and hands, strengthening and
enlightening their masses. aud max

Intellect of physical power: and that,
If we are to share the Yankee wealth,

must use some mot ally Yankee ideas
and abandon some mot ally of our

SATURDAY, NOV. 20, 1886.

Tuesdays Baltimore Sun gives the
following bit of political news; "Con-
gresham Barnes Compton, of the
fifth district, was in this city yester-
day. His presence started the talk
about the internal revenue collector
ship. All that could be learned, how
ever. was that the appointment of
Democrat for internal revenue collec-
tor is expected in few days. A
Democrat for general appraiser of
merchandise, to succeed H. Wheeler
Combs, of Garrett, is also to come
along soon.

A Desperate Game.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 15.-In 1868
Democratic desperation and treason
tried to over run the State Govern
ment of Indiana. By legislative en-.
actments they attempted to usurp
the powers lodged by the constitution
in the Governor. By a conspiracy
between the Democratic majority in
the General Assembly and the Dem
ocratSc State officers they closed the
doors of the State Treasury and re.
fused to discharge any of the obliga-
tions of the State. even the current
expenses of maintaining the State
Government. oliver P. Morton was
then Governor, and he was not a
man to be trifled with. With cour-
age born of his lofty patriotism he
defied the conspiratOrs and defeated
their nefarious schemes. Four times
the Democrats have stolen a United
States Senator 10 Indiana, and now
they ere trying the game again. The
people of the state have decided
against them. On the State ticket
the Republicans have plurality
from 1000 to 5000. The Democrats
day are in minority in the State
of from 10000 to 10000. The Prohi-
bitiOnists and Greenbackers combin.
ed cast $1,000 votes. On the Con-
gressiOnal ticket the Republican
majority is about 10000. while on the
Legislative ticket it is in the neigh
borhOok of 10000.
In this State the General Assembly
elects the Board to Control the Be-
nevolent Institutions, the Directors
of the Prisons, the State Librarian
and Superintendent of the Bureau of
Statistics. The mismanagement of
the benevolent institutions and the
prisons was one of the issues in the
Legislative campaign, as well as the
election ola U. S. Senator. On
fair districting of the State the Re-

a majority of at least thirty on joint

the Republican campaign work in
Virginia:

met gentleman from Richmond last
week, who gave me some very in
teresting information. He says that
Malone had his scouts all over the
State, and they reported to him at
the close of the canvass that the Dem
ocrats were confident of their success.
"On Friday before the election the
negro leaders in every precinct in
the State got their orders, which was
to see that the full Republican vote
was pOlled on election day, but not
to begin to vote before l O'Clock, so
late that if the Democrats did take
the hint they could not get their
vote out in time to save the State.
These orders were obeyed to the let
ter. In the Third District. in par
ticular, the colored vote was fully as
heavy as in 1884, when Blaine was
running for President, and in every
other district was the same. The re-
suit was that, between over.confi.
dence and dislike of the present ADJ
ministration. the Democrats have
but three members of Congress out
of ten elected.
"And that is not the worst of it
either. II the next Presidential cleo.
ton should happen to be thrown in
to the House of Representatives, the
vote of Virginia would be given to
the Republican candidate, and that
would be sufficient to turn the tide.
L told our people that Malone was
too quiet, and l knew he was medi.

very little interested in things. He
said he thought perhaps the Repub-

Col. Baughman Explains His Defeat.

From the New York World, Nov. 1871
Col. L. Victor Baughman, of Fred
erick City, Md, is spending few
days IN New York and is registered
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Mr..
Baughman IS the editor of the Fred
erick City Citizen, which is one of
the oldest Democratic papers in the
state. He was the Democratic can
didate for Congress in the Sixth
Maryland district, and, although the
district is heavily Republican, he
was only beaten by small majority.

publican votes" Mr.. Baughman said

from prominent Democrats in the
district telling me that they were
sorry I had to be used as the instru-

under the circumstances; they wished
to rebuke the President in Washing
ton for his course in ignoring his
party. l confess l could not blame
them much, but did not relish being
used as club to nit Mr.. Cleveland"
"Do you think Mr.. Cleveland will
be renominated?"
"Unless he changes his policy it
will be very unfortunate thing If
he is. If he takes the hint that has
been given him all will be well, aud
he will carry the fight in 1888 with
ease; but if he does not, Pm inclin-
ed to think we will have uphill
work"
Col. Baughman is believed to have
the inside track for the gubernato-
rial nomination in Maryland next
fall.

appears that at the date of the last
returns the army of the United States
consisted of 2,102 officers and 23,94G
men. Touching the relief of Gen.
Crook and his replacement by Gen.
Miles, Gen. Sheridan says that il
grew out of the fact that Gen, Crook
seemed welded to the policy of oper-
ating almost exclusively with Indian
scouts, and as his experience was of
great weight, his policy could not
well be changed without his removal
to another field. To relieve the De-
partnent of Embarrassment, Gen.
Crook has requested to be relieved,
and Gen. Miles has been assigned to
the command. Gen. Miles went to
work with commendable zeal. His
troops followed up the hostiles with
vigorous energy, broke up their
camps by attack four or five times,
and gave them no rest until they
surrendered, on September Attn, un

They will find that the Republic

that will not be cheated by any such

things according to the law and the
constitution. but they will not be
cheated by the Democratic scoundrels
who are now plotting to steal the

Gen. Crooks Indian Policy.

CHICAGO, Nov. ia special from
Ell Paso, Texas, published here this
morning, says: On March 2Sth last,
Gen. Crook telegraphed Gen. Sheri-
dan, from near San Bernardino,
Mexico, that the only propositions
that the hostiles would entertain
were that they should be sent east
for not exceeding two years with
their families that they should all
return to the reservation upon the
old status, or that they should return
to the war path. Gen. Crook accep-
ted their surrender upon the first
proposition and telegraphed for in
structions. Gen. Sheridan replied
that the President could not assent
to the terms, and instructed General
Crook to renew negotiations for un.
conditional surrender. On April /,
in reply to telegram from General
Sheridan disappearing his plans,
General Crook answered that he be-
lieved his plan was the most likely
to succeed in the end. He conclud-
ed. vt may be, however, that 1 am
too much welded to my own views
in this matter, and as l spent nearly
eight years of the hardest work of

issue henceforth."

Springer neither received f1attering

lowers as Wilson. of West Virginia,
and others came within an ace of de-
feat. while Randall the great leader
of the protective element in the
Democratic party, was elected by an
increased majority, as were also
many other of the leading protec-
tionists. This means more than one
might suppose at first thought, for
the elections undoubtedly afford an
index of the lines on which the next
Presidential contest is to be fought.
81 call your attention to the fact"
continued my friend, "that the great
revolution of 1874 forecast what al
most proved change of the admin
istration in 1876. The crushing out
of the Greenback movement in 1873
led to the election, in 1880, of Gar
zelda hard money champion. Again
in 1882 the Democrats carried Con-
gress, which was the forerunner of
Republican defeat in 1884. In the
light of history and precedent. there
fore, will any one dare strike out of
the list of live issues of 1883 the
question of protection Democratic
leaders are trying hard to convince
themselves and their constituents
that the danger to their party does
not lie here. They realize the mis-.
take that has been made and hope.
during the next two years, to profit
by the experience. Consequently it
is safe to predict that the next Con-
gress will tinker very little with the
tariff. Had Blaine been candidate
for the Presidency this year he would
have swept the country. Indeed, it
looks very much as if he will do that
very thing in 1885,"
Judging from expressions and oc-
currences of the past two weeks it
seems that Mr.. Cleveland's oppo.
nents within his own party, if it can
be said that he has party, intend to
take advantage of the present oppor-
tunity to put in their best ticks
against him. Notwithstanding the
tariff phase of the late results, they
are, like the New York World, claim
ing that "a powerful contributary in
fiuence to the Democratic losses is the
example of independence of and in
difference to party obligation set by
the President"

Result of the Late Elections.

Special Cor. Wheeling Intelligencer.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-After
conversing with politicians of every
shade of opinion, such as one meets
here in Washington. one finds it
very difficult to formulate a clear
deduction regarding the cause and
effect of the recent elections. Nearly
two weeks have gone by and the
subject is as much of topic of con-
versation at the capital as ever. Mug
wumps and the stalwarts of either
party have each a theory as to the
cause. The former, with some gusto,
point to the fact that the particular

cy. Stalwart Democrats, with an
equal amount of lingo attribute the
losses within their party to apathy
growing out of disgust, on the part
of the Democrats, with civil service
reform as administered by Mr..
Cleveland. Republican politicians
here are more united and somewhat
more logical in their conclusion, the
majority of them favoring the theory
that the tariff caused the Democratic
losses. There are some frank Demo-
Gratis who concede this point. West
Virginia politicians freely acknowl-
edge it. A Democrat who is a care
