1t seems to be hard for Southern
Democrats to realize that Republicans
have any rights if they live in the
South. E. G. Jordan, a highly re-
spected resident of Wisconsin, who
went to Durham, North Carolina, a
few years ago to make his home, was
awakened from his slumbers by a
posse of men who informed him that
he must leave that section by eight
O'Clock in the morning. He was
allowed but a few hours to arrange
his affairs, and was escorted to the
railroad train by four armed men. He
had afterward to dispose of his prop
erty at great sacrifice. His only
ofense was that he was an active Re
publican and took deep interest in
politics during the recent campaign.

Turn Out The Democrats.

Senator Quay recently had an in
terview with President Harrison about
the offices generally, with special ref
erence, of course to the Pennsylvania
offices, but without especial mention
of names. Quay said he wanted to
find out what the President was 60
ing to do about them. His own idea
was to turn out the Democrats and
rut Republicans in as speedily as pos
sible. He had no DOUBT all self-re-
specting Democrats in Office would
tender their designations, but if they
did not, within a reasonable time, un-
less their terms were just about to ex-
pire, ne was in favor of removing
them. The President said as he had
said before to tue cabinet, that in
this matter the administration must
90 slow. He wanted to see good Re-
publicans in all the administrative
places, but he didn't propose TO make
removals and appointments with undue
haste. He certainly would not make
vacancies until he was ready to fill
them with good men. What he want
ed in Pennsylvania. as elsewhere, was
that the Republican leaders should
get together and agree upon men to
be recommended as the choice of the
party in the State for possible vacan-
cies, then he would be in position to
fill them when they occurred.
