South against solid North" Most people
down this way think it shows solid Norm

day or two before the election that the

South, by saying that republican victory
meant the reopening of the Southern ques-
ton, and the necessarily consequent disat-
rangement and depression of the business
not only Of this section but of the whole
country. The Herald says: THAT soho
South deluson, that holding III an sneAlrl-

SELF preservation, love of law and order, and
