THE WAY.

If the South is permitted to manage its own
affairs, free from all fear Of federal interior
ence. il may be expected to take part in the
discussion and settlement of purely economic
questions. 1t will then gladly join hands
with the Republicans in any measure for the
general elfare.-Memphis Avalanche.
What does the Avalanche meant What
federal interference has there been with the
South in recent years, or what refusal to let
them manage their own affairsl Surely they
have managed their elections in their own
way, the Constitution and laws to the con-
trary notwithstanding. The trouble is, the
South has had its own way too much, and has
fallen into a very bad way. AS to federal
interference" the laws for the South are the
same IS those for the North. It is not
the laws that hurt, it is the con-
slant ignoring and violation of them.
The people Of the North do not find
the national laws burdensome, and are not
haunted by the bugaboo of federal inter
ference" Why should the South bel The
fact is. tae Southern people ever since the
war have been nursing the idea that the Re-
publican party and the government, under
Republican control, were their worst enc
mics instead Of their best friends, and 10
pursuance of this vicious error they have
been standing in their own light. They
might have been much further advanced in
the race of prosperity and internal develop
ment if they had cut loose years ago from the
corpse Of bourbonism and aligned themselves
with the party Of progress. The sooner they
do this the better it viii be for them. and

IT is to be hoped that there will be a large
attendance at the First Baptist Church during
the sessions Of the National Youths Home
and Employment Association. They will
be held at the First Baptist Church,
commencing this morning, at $50
o'clock. What to do with the
waits of the country is a question
that should press upon the thoughtful atten-
ton of every citizen, and this movement is in
the line of a practical solution of that prob
lem. The association is comparatively a new
one, but its record is already such as to indi-
cate that it has taken up a practical idea and
is working it in a practical direction. All
persons interested are cordially invited to be
present and give the convention the strength
OF their presence and participation.

prohibit. In all the cities and large towns liquor
was sold in spite of the law. and the revenue
formerly derived from license had to be raised
by direct taxation. It didn't take the people
very long to conclude that such . law was un-
wise.-Omaha Republican.
COERCION is q bad word. We coerced the
South into the Union; we have got them physic-
ally. but mentally they are against Us. We
might force a union with our northern neigh
bors, but We have had enough experience Of
that kind. ''In union there is strength but
not when a policeman handouts himself TO a
prisoner. To get strength out of union IL must
DO not only voluntary but a unit; a majority is
not sufficient. Those Of our people who have
an eye to Canada should bear this fact in mind
and wait until the project is ripe.-Fibre and
Fabric.
IT Is an evidence of extreme unwisdom on the
part OF a young man to relinquish even q
moderately remunerative employment to ac-
cept any ordinary position in government en-
ploy. By doing so he gives up the prospect OF q
career of independence and self-respect, and
makes himself subject TO the caprices of poll
ticians. Some day, in one Of the vicissitudes OF
party supremacy. he is likely to be removed at
short notice. Thrown upon his own resources,
he discovers to his chagrin that he Is unified
for business or professional vocations in proper
ton to the length of time he has been an Office
holder.-Albany Journal.

THE meeting of the National Educational
Association in the South for the first time
since 1850 is significant of the long-delayed
renewal of interest in educational matters in
that region. Had the Southern people been
alive to their own interests they would have
agitated the educational question and en-
couraged the meeting among them of such
bodies as the association mentioned as soon
as the war was fairly over. Had they done
this, the deadly sOlidity of the South would
have been destroyed long ago, and that part
of the country as surely on the road to pros
perity IS the West and Northwest.

SENATOR Quay, chairman of the national
Republican committee, says: 1--WE have the
House of Representatives by a majority of
five, certainly, and possibly by nine on the Of
fetal count" We regard this as conclusive
on the question of the control of the House.
Senator Quay is a man of few words, careful
as to b he says, and the opposite of sensa-
tional. We have no doubt the above state
ment is made on trustworthy information,
and is absolutely correct. AS additional evil
dence that Senator Quay knows what he is
talking about, he says: Gas to the Demo
cratic threats that Democratic Governors of
States will refuse to certify the election of Re-
publicans to the Clerk Of the House, and the
latter will refuse to place our people on the
roll, we do not care what the Democratic Gov.
errors or the Clerk of the House may do.
They are not dealing with children and old
women" This means that the Republicans
know their rights and will maintain them.
We do not apprehend any serious trouble in
the organization of the House, for the indica-
tons are that the Democratic schemes to
capture it have been abandoned as a homeless
undertaking. Ho viewer that may be, it will
not succeed.

TIE Louisville Commercial very truly re-
marks hat there are some figures connected
with the recent election which Kentucky pol
~iticians will do well to consider. Blaine's
vote four years ago was little over lis. 900.
Harrison's vote was over 155, 600. Cleve-
lands vote four years ago was about
l53. 600, and that was the largest Democratic
vote ever cast in the State until this month.
Harrison's vote was 1000 more than the
largest Democratic vote ever cast until this
year. These figures show the healthy growth

General Harrison would receive a larger vote
in the South than any Republican candidate

One or two OF our esteemed contemporaries
are engaged in an attempt to convince the peo<
pie of the South that their day OK doom is AZ
hand. Copious quotations are made from GER
tain narrow partisan journals In support Of theis
position, and day after day their readers are as
sured that there Is no escape from II. They are
told that Harrison is Puritsnical in his ideas.
and that he entertains no friendly spirit toward
this section: that his policy has been already
outlined in his speeches during the campaign,
and il will be one antagonlstic TO the prosperity
of the South. This line of argument was perhaps
admissible during the campaign and i'm
mediately succeeding defeat, but it is surprising
that when the time has been given for a calm,
deliberate survey of the situation. a few-we
are glad to say a few, only-continus to speak
and write 10 that strain.

people of this section could be convinced that

Western ideas and sentiments will dominate
under the next administration. General Harri-
son is q Western man by birth and utilization.
Re has Western Republican ideas on questions
of finance and taxation. He is not 80 ultra q
protectionist as Thos. b. Reed or VIM Mckin-
ley, and if he is able TO control his party in the
House OF Representatives there II sure to DC
some concession to the tariff views OF Indiana,
Illinois, lows and Minnesota. This policy
means q Western man for Speaker OF the House
Of Representatives In the Fifty-irst Congress.
and of all the men who will sit in that body
none is more available for the presiding officers
chair than Jos. q. Cannon, just elected for bis
ninth consecutive term.
Mr.. Cannon is q warm personal friend OF the
Presidentelect, probably as close to him as any
man in either branch of Congress- They have
been in close accord on all public questions, and
il the new administration 10 TO frame q tariff
policy there is no doubt Harrison would rather
have his friend, Joe Cannon, in the Speakers
chair than any other man who could be named.
1t was Cannon's delegation, Robson ard Hitch,
in the Chicago convention that disregarded In
structiops for Gresham and led the Illinois
break to Harrison. Cannon was held responsi-
BILE for this by the Gresham men. and General
Harrison is the sort OF man to stand by his old
friend now. Mr.. Cannon's chief service 10 the
House has been on the appropriations commit
tee, and since Garfield left that body be has
been the most potent Republican on that i'm
portanr committee. He is . very thor
oughly equipped legislator, and probably
as well informed on all public questions
as any man now in the House. Mr.. Cannon is a
North Carolinian by birth, ffty-two years old,
and has lived in Illinois since his boyhood. He
is q forid blonde. with hair the color Of General
Harrison's, but ruddier complexion. he looks
O little like the late Presidents Garfield. only
smaller al around. He is q lawyer. farmer and
banker. and o hustler on the stump. He Is plain
in dress and unassuming in manners. HIS ac-
complishmeuts as q dancer were described in
The Sun not long ago. II President Harrison
succeeds in moldine the new House to his will,
keep your eye on your Uncle Joseph. His cleo
ton would mean the complete pcedominance OF
the West IN the new ADMINISTRATION Western
man for President, a Western man to preside
over the Senate, a Western man for Speaker OF
the House. In addition to this, should William
BOYD Allison become Secretary OF the Treasury.
as is not improbable, and a Western man Secrc-
tary of the Interior, as seems almost certain,
the Republican party would seem to have a
pretty strong grip on the section it must hold If
IL would retain power.

THERE is some discussion and friendly
rivalry as TO which is the banner Republican
county in Indiana in the recent election.
Nearly all tie counties did we'll, and many
made large gains, but We are induced to think
Posey county heads the list. The Repub-
Iicans of POsey reduced a Democratic ma
iority of Gle, in 1884. to 3I5. Without hav-
lng made a careful comparison, We are in
.lined to think this the largest per cent. of
Republican gain Of any county in the State.
This is as much a compliment to General
Hovey, whose home is in Posey. as it is to
the gallant Republicans of that county.
