THE GOSPEL or NATE BY Mr. d.
H. y. MOORE.

80 = a'NFhfes
We make room for a letter from .dr. d.
II. s Moore, Of Humboldt, the wording OF
and statements in which prove it TO be n
singular survival in spirit from the civil
war period when the gospel OF hate was 80
ferccly preached at the North and the
South. We DO not believe there is any
such general feeling At the North rs Mr..
Moore states there is. There are, We know,
few such men rs Foraker, OF
Ohio, but they also are types Of
survival from the war. They
still preach sectional hate and amnesty.

public sentiment Of the North. rs II Is

them, deprcatc sectionalism. Beside.

tween the States, and the investments by
