iICVT TlOTtlSti CFdut. NOW SO
far from this being a new
pronunciamento ofMr. Mills,
it is just what he said in an
Address delivered before the
legislature Of Texas-a free
coinage body-only the Tex
as statement was, if any
thing a more earnest appeal
than that contained in his
Ohio speechesagainstrelying
on relief from free coinage.
When it is remembered that
Mr.. Mills ambition is to he
elected to the Senate by the
legislature OF Texas, it can
easily beseen that the bold
stand he took before that
body, which was composed
OF men the most ofwhom will
have a vote on the question
of his selection as Senator,
was just like the man, and
that his Ohio speeches are
only in the same line."

WASHINGTON LETTER
From our Regular Correspondent

taking the rosy view Of the
republican prospects in Ohio
that is prevalent, in the re-
publican press. 1t was written
to a republican departmental
official, and was intended tu
be personally shown by the
receiver to- every republican
rom Uhio that, is employed
by the Government. In it
the Senator says that he re-
CARDS it as imreritively nee
essary that every republican
voter Of the State of Ohio,
now temporarily in Washing
ton, shall at once return to
the State in order to help
brace u p tn e weakened
members of the party who
are showing a disposition Ell
ther to vote against their
old party or to stay athome.
In consequence of this letter
it is said that the department
officials have intimated that
all Ohio voters employed
there in may take thirty days
leave with pay whether their
annual leave has all been us-
led up or not. Evidently Sen
ator Sherman isn't figuring
on any fifty thousand ma
iority.
Speaking Of Ohio, it is cred
|itable to the prominent re-
|publicans now in Washing
ton, that they, to a man, con
Idemned the recent attempt
fby certain members of their
party In Ohio to make Gov.
Cambell's private business
transactions the basis OF an
lattsck upon him.

This is hard lines for Mr.. Mil.
Ter. who has ever since Mr.,
Harrison became President
had his mouth puckered up
preparatory to taking a life
time suck at the public teat.
AS a patient waiter he is a
success.
Representative Mills oppo.
nents for the Speakership,
have tried to nj a ke il
lappear that in his recent
speeches in Ohio he took a
different position on the free
coinage Of silver from that
(which he he had for a long
tim 3 previously occupied,
This is an attack upon the
rugged honesty OF Mr.. Mills
that his friends resent. One

caliSm ana the negro. Each
succeeding campaignbrought
US a fresh dose OF each. We
have been purged with this
homogeneous compound un-
til the bare mention Of it
makes US feel like vomiting" !"
Now it was a matter OF
choice with Col. Polk's pa
per whether or not it would
send such views out into the
world for tfefarmers of the
State to read, and itchose to
do 80. Why? What is the oh
ject aimed at?, What was ex-
pected to be gained by the
publication? What is the rea
son for it.
The Democratic lea 1crs of
North Carolina never promiS
ed to repeal the internal rev.
enue; they have urged that
it ought to be repealed; but
they have never made a prom
ise to do what they never
could OF themselves perform.
They did promise the peo.
pie good local government,
and peace at home and the
establishment of order in the
State. When they were Civ
en- power, what was the con-
dition of affairs? Half a doz-
en- counties had been declared
to be in a state Of insurrec-
ton; hundreds of good men
were in prison; Kinks ma
rauders were holding in sub
lection several counties, a
court martial was being or
gained to try people under
martial law;, and the negroes
were burning harms, and the
people were in a condition oi
unrest and inquietude. Such
were.t the circumstances under
which the people gave power
to the Democrats; and since
that time no people on the
face OF the globe have enjoy
ed greater peace and more un
broken order, greater liberty
and more confidence in the
law; or more progress adapt
ed to the situation of our
people than have the citizens
of North Carolina.
The Democrats Of North
Carolina can turn with just
pride to the history and acts
of their party, which indeed
challenge the admiration oi
the people.
With such q record, th e
Democrats OF North Carolina
can treat with scorn the sin
lister views Col. Polk's paper
has chosen to lay before the
public, and can defy the ma.
|lignant efforts of that paper
to array the people against
lit.
And what shall we say ol
that last idea-that since the
war the life OF the Democratic
party has depended on Radi-
calisln and the negro, and
chat the baremention OF these
matters s'makes us feel like
vomiting?
What was the case in 1874
when the social equality bill
was before Congress and was
defeated BY only the most
strenuous endeavors Of the
Democrat members?

THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.
Judge A. l.. Morrison onsBhe situation in
The Buckeye State.

To the Editor OF the New Mexican.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 10, '9l.-We
have yet fourteen days of hard incessant
labor before us until election day. This
is presidential year in Ohio. You under
stand that the last Democratic legislature
gerrymandered the congressional districts
to such shameful extent that although
the Republicans had plurality of about
IL 900, when Campbell was elected, for
the entire state ticket except Foraker,
and although no Democrat disputes that
Ohio is a Republican state, yet they
have only seven congressman out OF
twenty-one.
You would think that Democratic
rapacty could 60 no further than this,
but you are mistaken. If they get con.
troll of the next legislature they propose
to elect the presidential electors by the
congressional districts, and this would
give them the same dishonest proportion
of electors, which they now have of con-
gressmen. This is the vile law they have
passed already in Michigan.
Thus the southern system OF disfranchiz.
ing Republicans has began in the north.
Now give them the legislatures for one
wear in a few northern states together
with the solid south and the right of the
majority to rule will have passed away
the experiment of self government will
have become failure and the beginning
of the end of our glorious republic is close
at hand. This is the shape of the struggle
now. State issues have ceased to be dis

INDiaN DEPRECIATION CLAIMS.

The people of the frontier, who, while
fighting to open the great west to the
peaceabIe settlement of the masses, sui
fered the most severe privatlons, hao
their property stolen or destroy ed by hos
tile Indians, and for the benefit of whom
the last Republican congress passed a bill
of relief providing court for determining
and settling these Indian depreciation
claims-these people are certainly entitled
to reasonably fair treatment at the hands
OF the next congress. 1t is very serious
question, however, that they will not gel
1t. Some of the pound foolish-penny-wlse
statesmen of the south and east have al
ready begun to shrink from doing theil
PLAIN duty to the west in the matter Of
approprlating funds for paying claims
which the court will pass upon favorably
and the comforting news is at hand that
an effort will he made to pinch down in
every manner possible the fair demands
of the western pioneers in this matter
For one, we enter our most solemn pro-
test right here. In the name Of the peo-
pie who have fought, bled and died on
this frontier, we demand that congress
grant the necessary funds to meet every
dollar of the legitimate Indebtedness for
Indian depredatoEs as it shall be decided
by the tribunal commissioned to perform
that duty.
