TH1T BOYCOTT SCHEME.

II is generally conceded that the most
asinine performance of the season was the
cndoavor of "The Atlanta Constitution" to
induce the South to boycott the North. In
1861 hotheads of "Thc Constitution" school,
finding that their side of the house could not
any longer run the National Government
proceeded to boycott the Union. The pro-
posed boycott Of 1890 was the outcome Of the
same reckless. inscnSate and laWIcSS spirit
which inspired the other. The first conspiracy
aimed 10 wreck the republican system, 10
make government of the people by the people
a Kissing and a byword This years con
spracy aimed to injure rs much as possible
the material prosperity OF the great business
section of the country. The excuse Tor the
last conspiracy was as impident ana lnde-
fcnsible as the excuse for the former. The
Southern BnurbonS turned traitors because u
duly constituted majority elected a President
of whom they did not approve. 1.-THE At

bovcott of the North on discovering that Il
duly constituted majority was likely 10 pass a
constitutional measure in the interest OF hon
