REBELS IN POWER.
Senator Ingalls, Comments ON the Actlvit,
Of the Solid South.

senator Ingalls, Comments ON the Activity
Of tho Solid South.
Senator ingalls, has evidently not re-
pented his strong language of the other
day against the conduct of the rebel
Brigadiers in Congress. He has just
written letter to friend-evidently
intended for publication-in which he
makes the following unequivocal
charges against the Southern leaders:
'The Democratic party is endeavoring to re-
construct the history Of this country, and IL
they keep on going for the next ten years as
they have done for the last it will be impossible
to tell which side prevailed in the late contest.
The CCrcoran art gallery here Is full Of pictures
OF rebel Generals in uniform, with not single
Union commander to keep them company.
The onicial records Of the war Of tho rebellion.
now being published, are habitually mutilated
in order to give color to events, and they now
propose to destroy the manuscript after the
volumes are printed, In order that their mis-
re representations may escape detection. The
people Of the North may awake from their in
difference and their confidence too late. Tho
Southern Confederacy is an active. organized
political power as much as IL was in 1851"
These are serious charges, and they
are preferred by no less man than
the presiding officer of the United
States Senate. The mutilation of the
war records would be an abominable
crime against the truth of history.
There is grave reason to believe that
the charge is true. At all events, we
have heard only the beginning of the
controversy on that subject. MIR. In
gals IS not the only Republican who is
stirred up about it and the truth will
be brought to light Minneapolis 7ri6-
uue.

INDIVIDUALlSM.


What Woman's Rights Really MeanS-Tne
Moving Instinct.
Mrs. Corbin says that the woman suf-
frage movement is based upon individ-
ualism. and that individualism is de-
structive to 1.-THE home, the church and
the State"
Individualism. in its bad sense.
means simply seifishness. Now. why
should it make woman selfish to take
an intelligent interest in the affairs OF
her country. or to be recognized as
worthy of having her opinion counted?
The slur upon the early wOman's
rights women is wholly unwarranted.
They based their demand upon the
fundamental bedrock of justice. and
sooner or later their cause was sure to
prevail But the great accession OF
strength that the movement has re-
ceived of late years through the W.. c. T.
U. is proof that individualism is not the
strongest impelling force with most
women. Women never fight like this
for themselves" said an observant
spectator at a great mass-meeting
of Englishwomen assembled to demand
the franchise. The love of justice and
q sense of personal dignity aroused a
few women of high intelligence to the
wish for suffrage. and the same causes
arc arousing more and more of them
every year. But there are comparative
