PARTY DUTY.

The Republicans of Washington are not
showing quite the right spirit respecting
the coming election. The feeling OF secur.
ity is too profound. There is danger in
many senatorial and representative dis
tricts. unless there shall be waking up Of
Republican voters. that only . fraction Of
the legitimate Republican vote viii b.
polled. And il 90 happens that in the dis
tricts where Republican apathy 10 most
noticeable the Democratic managers are
making special effort. They are not. il i,
true. making much outcry. but are proceed
ing quietly and diligently. and it is not to
be denied that they have. apparently, good
reason TO hope for success.
These facts Are stated plainly, because
the Republican voters Of Washington must
Be brought 70 realize that party success. or
party failure, in many districts rests wholly
with tAsm. Every Republican voter
should 90 to the polls himself, and should
zee to 1t that his Republican neighbor goes.
He owes this duty to his party and to the
interests Of his state. in which his own in.
forests are involved.

REASON AND uxREAson.

OF the 81 Democrats who hold seats In
the upper branch of the 5lst Congress, 81
are from the former slaveholdinR states.
and only are from all The balance Of the
Union. OF the 152 Democrats in the lower
house, IS are from the south. and 81 from
the balance Of the country. On free vote
and . fair count of oil who ara by the con.
stitution and laws entitled to vote, and who
are counted in the apportionment OF rep
resentation. the number of Democratic
Senator'S would be reduced TO the extent of
IL or 20. and the number OF Democratic
Representatives would be reduced to the
extent Of 10 to 81.
II is thus apparent that any hope the
Democratic party can entertain of securing
. majority In the nsxs House Of Repre-
sentatives must mainly depend upon the
south. and that nearly. or quite, one-half
Of the support they can draw from that
section viii b directly and solely due to q
suppression Of the right Of suffrage on the
part of great body Of citizens whose
right to vote 10 solemnly guaranteed by the
federal constitution. and whose numbers
form the basis Of large fraction of South
ern representation in Congress and the
electoral college.
That the Southern whites who partici-
pstsd in the effort b destroy the Union,
and that those who synspathissd with that
effort or regret its failure. should follow
the fortunes Of the Democratic party, and
should take part In. or approve Of, or wink
1t the wholesale suppression Of legal votes
in the interest Of that party. is consistent
with the effort 10 disrupt the government
In the intsrsst Of slavery. and with their
desire to hold in bondage the men whose
votes they consider Il excusahls to sup
press. From the standpoint Of hostility to
the Union and 10 the Acknowledgement of
the negro there 10 perhaps some show Of
reason for eouthsEn opposition to the Re-
