TIE SOUTH THREATENED.

The election Of Harrison and Morton means the
beginning Of the end Of the solid South. From
the nature Of the this defeat for that sectional
diabollsm Is HnAlity. The old slave States may
sim oycmwe slaughter and deiraud the coored
people OF the right of suffrage, but they need
look for no effective alliance at tho North.
Before another Presidential election Dakota,
Montana and Washington will be admit
ted into the Union, which of itself would be
easily decisive, but the census OF 1880 viii give
the Nation n new apporIlonmont, TO the great nd
vantage Of the Republican Northwest ana the dis
advantage OF the Democratic South. Between
these two great mud inevitable facts there Is no
danger Of any other Presidential contest with the
Republican party ~ heavily handicapped as II was
in 1883 aud that, too, however tenacious the
Democracy may DO In maintaining H. organza-
ton intact-Chicdgo htr.OoeuL
A few, very few, Of the close and
attentive readers of TnE APPEAL were
afraid that in the note of warning we
sounded on Thursday morning we were
too eager 10 anticipate events, and wan
derod very far away from the conservative
position TO which TIE APPEAL has been
80 long and so safely anchored. These
readers must be convinced by this time
that We merely anticipated our con-
temporarics and the general judgment by
q few days. The extracts we published
yesterday from two Of the more recent
speeches OF Prcsidcnt.elect Harrison and
the opinions Of leading Republicans
here and elsewhere should, coupled
with the fears expressed by Southern
Governors, United States Senators and
Representatives, as well rs leading South
crn newspapers, be sufficient TO convince
even the most skeptical Of our critics that
a chief aim Of Harrson's administration
will be- TO bring tho whole power OF the
Federal Government TO bear upon the
Southern States 10 force them 10 the ac-
cepumco oil Ropublicanism. Tho above
extract from HE Chicago iir- Oaan, which
is to this effect, re-cniorccs all that Tux

"The time has gone by when the su.

litical parties can seriously affect the gen

The Republican party, both in its record
and in the policy which It's leaders are
likely TO pursue, is, however, inimcal TO
the South. Its present victory will re-
kindle the hopes OF the negro for political
supremacy, and. this will only tend to

From the Galveston News.
"As regards the successful candidate for
the Presidency, there is much cause for
reinsurance in the personal history and
known character OF the man. Under the
most searching tests he has not been found
wanting in firmnesS, courage, stability or
integrity. Il is scarcely reasonable TO
apprehcnd that such man, clothed with
the responsibility OF the Presidential Office,
will deliberately lend himself 10 policy
designed TO destroy the domestic peace
and the material prosperity Of the South.
IL Is more likely that Republican politi-
clans, such as sherman, In Ohio, and kel-
ley, Of Pennsylvania, consulting the views
and ambitions Of Northern manufacturing
and moncyed interests, will endcavor 10
dissolve tho Democratic Bolidity Of the
South by policy Of Cancellation and for.
beamncc rather than Of interference and
evaporation with regard TO delicate and
sensitive problems Of a domestic nature in

and yet 1t is indisputable he will suffer the

ffoIn the Nluona NMlhs-l LINUS.
A Times reporter, in casual converse
ton with the Hon. III. ID. Money, who
came all the way from Washington to vote
for Cleveland and Thurman, asked him
what he thought would be the effect Of
Clevcland's defeat or the future OF the
Democratic party and its tariff policy. In
reply, Mr.. Money did not hesitate to give
II as his opinion that the party would be
stronger in 1892 than it is now. lie did
not think that the Democracy would
weaken in its position on the trrif qu =
ton; that tariff reform was rap dly gain
ing favor every year, and being founded
on the principle OF justice and right IL WIS
bound TO succeed ultimately. He did not
think the partyshould be discouraged over
the result in New York, rs Democratic
Governor had been elected by much
larger vote than the Republican candidate
for President received which proves clearly
that the Democratic party is in the ascend
ancy in that State. lie attributes Mr..
Clcveland's defeat 10 the lukewarmncss OF
Democrats toward him, as is evidenced by
the fact that he ran far behind the Demo

what. the Matter with New York,

From the Chicago Herald, Democrat.
The trouble with New York was David
b. Hill and certain other scaly politicians.
Gov. Hill is Democratic Jim Blaine.
When President Cleveland stood forth
honestly and courageously as the cham
pion Of an idea which, sooner or later,
must prevail in this country, the time
servers were appalled,. Gov Hill made
haste TO declare in public that the monop-
oily tariff was sacred thing, which he
had no intention OF interferinglIwith,
thereby inviting and compelling contrast
in the minds OF the ignorant between
himself and the man who was not
afraid bodily to proclaim the truth
that protection protects nobody save
the capitalist, and that it has no
more effect upon wages than upon the
tides. Such was the essence OF ID. b.
Hills attitude toward Mr.. Cleveland.
Apparently and perhaps actually cordial,
he lost no opportunity to make for him
self the demagogue's plea 30 familiar in
Blalne's mouth. As an apologist for
Cleveland he was more dangerous than an
open foe. In this manner he discredited
the President and alarmed the thought.
less and ignorant whom Mr.. Cleveland
and his friends had sought TO impress and
TO educate. Gov. Hill has saved his own
hide, but he has sacrificed his chances OF
preferment in the nation at large. His
own victory, which his friends would use
to give him additional prestige in the
nation, will be found to be barren one.
