THE ISSUE IN THE SOUTH

The passage of the Mi Is bin call. tie
Democracy up on the line upon which
they must win or lose, for il Is the posi-
ton that the party has promised to a.
sumo for the last eight or ten years. Tie
North will be wise to march bravely ~
and stand hy the colors which the Pres
dent posted himself ami We doubt mo-
for moment that success will he the re
suit Of his movement
Tariff reform is in, the hearts Of tie
people, and they know more about it now
than ever before, especially in the Nor b
where tie history Of protection is wei
understood
We have often laid down the terse i0l-
mula of reform, viz, that the masses Of
the people cannot be made to pay tribute
TO the few manufactures in the shave Of
double the price for the necessary articles
of life
So much for the moral part OF it.
Now, as TO the tactical part Of it in
Southern politics, we should say that
the canvass has been delayed beyond the
poin, wBere 2 sufficient degree Of infof-
nation can be impaired to the people 10
eradicate the idea Of protection that has
been infused In the popular mind.
Therefore let us simply 90 into The
IL, arl
only reduces war taxes That Is all You
certainly have no right 10 claim war
taxes in time Of peace, nor for preserva
ton, but to protect privileged classes
No party can win on that ground, AMI
on that ground the Republican party
mus, stand IL we have everybody, SPEAK
ers or papers, to show the points OF the
case.
But besides this is the great question
In the South Of nome rule which the Re
publicans alw avs demand with the buc-
caneering spirit of the old pirate kings
who swooped down on provinces, coI-
auered them with the sword, and then
ruled them without pre,ence OF regard
for the rights of the natives We ali
have al experience burned into US by tie
acts of the Radicals, and in any canvass
against the Republicans we will remem-
Der to endure the ills We have rather than
fiy TO worse ones that we know of.
The Kuklux laws and the reconstruction
acts are no, forgotten nor are we obliyi-
Gus of the fact that, In case OF Republi
can triumph when Jadge Bond or Judge
Hughes retired, John Wise might be
pu, on the Federal bench. " Oh, horrible"
as they say in melodrams; and nothing in
melodrama is worse than the false i'm
prisonments and tyrannical proceedings
that would characterize such state Of
things as q recurrence TO Radical rule.
Then with Heavens help let US deter
mine that we will not be ia,tooed with
the policy of Malone again; and protec-
ton or no protection the watchword is
safety.
