HARRISON AND THE S0UTH,

The Journal predicted several weeks ago
that General Harrison would receive the larg-
est vote in the South that has been given to
any Republican candidate for President since
1876. This prediction is already verified, and
is likely to be emphasized by later returns.
The analysis of the vote will undoubtedly
show that large part of General Harrison's
very respectable vote in the South comes from
the whites. We regard this as an auspicicus
sign, and it points to what we think will be
one of the greatest blessings Of General Har.
rison's administration.
The recent campaign has disclosed the. ex-
istence of progressive liberal element In the
South. which is ripe for revolt against Demo
cratic bourbonism, and ready to cut loose
from the corpse Of the dead past. This ele-
ment represents what has been called ''ths
New South" It has caught something
of the spirit of enterprise and progress
that has made the North populous,
prosperous and wealthy. 1t believes in
opening the doors Of the South to Northern
capital and immigration, and in promoting
the development, too long delayed, of the
materialresources of the South. 1t was in.
evitable that this class should favor an
economic policy designed to foster. and en-
courage the new manufacturing industries Of
the South and promote its material progress.
We mean the policy of protective tariff.
The really progressive men of the South,
though perhaps calling themselves Democrats,
have no sympathy with free trade. They re-
gard it as menace to the prosperity. Of the
South. and they are right. The interests Of
the South in this regard are identical
with those Of the North, except that the
South is even more interested than the North
in maintaining the policy of protection. Tbs
North would suffer less from free trade than
the South would, in proportion as it Is
stronger, richer, and better able to stand com
mercial disaster. sa'-
A considerable number of progressive
Southern men of the class described voted for
General Harrison, and a much larger number
desired his election. We have reason to be-
lieve that many who did not vote for him will
not regret his election. We think we can
assure them they will never have reason to do
so. General Harrison is not merely a
strong friend Of the policy of protec-
ton to American industries. which the
progressive people of the South desire to see
maintained, but he is in all other respects a
patriotic American statesman, large enough
and broad enough to take the entire country
in the scope of his vision and his efforts for its
welfare. The Journal claims no authority to
speak for the President-elect, but all whe
know him know that his administration will
be actuated by the highest principles of JUS
tics and patriotism. The South, as well as
the North, will find in him firm friend and
a wise and faithful guardian Of its interests.
We believe his election marks the dawn of 8
new era of good feeling between the North
and South, and the development of a new ma
| tional sentiment, based on better under
| standing of our common interests.

THE Republicans have made gratifying
gains in old Virginia, and full returns may
give them the State. In West Virginia they
are claiming the State by 5000 majority. 1t
would be big feather in the Republican cap
to carry either of these States, but there is a
prospect Of our getting both. The returns
come in slowly from the mountain counties,
and it will probably be day or two before
the result is definitely known.

MARION COUNTY,

The only lack of completeness in the Re-
publican victory is the loss of this county,
and, probably. the consequent loss of the Leg
islature. In the general victory and the country
at large this will not be noticed or known, but
to the Republicans of this city and county it
is disappointment and humiliation. We
have no doubt that we have majority of the
legal voters of the county, and it is shame
and disgrace that we were beaten out of it.
It was done by fraud and bulldozing. The
Democratic poll made thirty days before The
election contained 1000 moro names than
the one made sixty days before This
increase mainly represents imported voters
There is reason to believe the double ballot
fraud was also worked successfully. The Re-
publicans gained in every one of the country
precincts, and doubtless would have gained in
every city precinct but for fraud and intim.
idation. The latter was practiced to an un-
paralleled extent, and no doubt drove away a
considerable number of Republican voters.
All these frauds and outrages were planned
and executed under the leadership and man
agement of two men who owe their
election in large part to Republic
ans. The genial Mr.. Tom Taggart,
and the "good fellow" Mr.. John E.
Sullivan, owe their present Offices and political
influence IN large part to the votes of 'inde-
pendent" and scratching" Republicans II
