the government has hitherto been un-
able to afford any adequate protection.
1t is story which should kindle indig-
nation and resentment in the breast of
every fair thinking and honest citizen
Of the United States.
The democratic party, by the most
colossal crimes committed against the
purity Of the ballot and the freedom of
the suffrage. has practically disfran-
chised seven million people. By such
means that party has added at least
thirty per cent. to its power in the six
teen southern states. and it uses this
ill-gotten power in direct antagonism to
both the interests and opinions of the
citizens it thus robs and defrauds. II is
also true that by the peculiar CON-
plication of race influence, representa-
ton and prejudice, this stolen political
supremacy. through wholesale suppress
sion, cna bles-a democrat in many of the
southern states to exercise power two
or three times as great as any man. re-
publican or democrat, can exert in the
north.
The white population Of South Caro-
three representatives in congress, but
the colored population entities it to four
additional representatives. The demo-
Gratis, however, absolutely suppress the
colored vote and then proceed TO elect
the entire seven of the congressional del
cgation, and thus every democrat in the
state exercises two and one seventh
times as much political power in the
making of the laws of the nation and in
electing the president as any voter, re-
publican or democrat, in New York or
i'll any other state outside of the south.
This is the crime which the southern
states are constantly committing
against the rest of the states of the
union and by which they regularly steal
at least forty seats in the house OF 1ep-
resentatives in every recurring con-
gressional election. These forty stolen
seats in congress have given the demo
Gratis their supremacy in the popular
branch of the national legislature, and
enabled them to pass three free trade
bills, and only by the merest accident we
escaped at their hands most fraudulent
free silver bill. In other words, they
uniformly use these forty stolen seats
to war against the interests of our citi-
zens who reside outside of their own
section.
We may well be startled at the brazen
corruption and political brigandage of
I'LL. Tammany and Maynard, but in re-
senting their perfidT and fraud we are

Chicago Inter Ocean.
B-Democratic admiration of Gov.
Mckinley has blossomed in night,
under tie stimulating notion that he is
anti Harrison. The interest that the
democratic press is taking just now in
"anyone to beat Harrison" is perhaps
no more than natural, but it is none
the less amusing. Brooklyn Standard
Union.
.H The democrats are welcome to all
the comfort they can get out Of the
fact that some of the recent republican
state conventions have not instructed
for Harrison. When man is the prac-
tically unanimous choice Of his party
the formality of giving instructions for
him is superfuous. Louis Globe
Democrat.
If the predictions made by Gen
Harrison's friends are correct, the
president will be renominated on the
first ballot at Minneapolis. There are
several state conventions to be held
yet, but it is practically certain that
the president will be his own successor,
and under the circumstances the choice
ought to be unanimous without for
NAL ballot.-Cleveland Leader.
Whatever indications there may
be that President Harrison will not be
renominated, it is quite evident that
he does not feel very blue over the sit
uation. His nearest friends claim to
have the nomin alton secured and smile
at the various boons now being indus
triously worked up. If Benjamin feels
satisfied there is no OCCASION for the rest

DEMOCRATIC OUTRAGES.
Unscrupulons and Dishonest Methods of
H Gaining Party Ends.


Gaining Party Ends.
The reputable and self-respecting
citizens of this state look upon the re-
cent democratic election frauds with
amazement and CONSERVATION. but ap-
parently fail to realize that the demo-
Gratis have only been operating in the
north the methods and instrumentalities
ofcorruption and usurpation by means
of which they have SO long controlled
the political destinies of the south.
Everyone interested in this subject
should study that part of the platform
recently adopted by the Florida repub-
lean convention which relates to the
Suffrage. Indeed, it should attract the
serious attention and consideration of
all who rightly value the high priv
ileges of American citizenship. No one
who has kept informed as to the situa-
tion in the southern states will be able
to claim that the dark indictment thus
drawn up against the democrats is over
drawn.
1t details the outrages inflicted upon
republican voters in dispassionate Ian
guage, but in clear and convincing
manner. It shows that the democrats
have uniformly adopted such methods,
and resorted to such practices, as in
volve the complete denial Of the politi-
cal rights of republicans, against which
Huntsville gazette., 1892-05-28

have, however, nothing to fear from a
democratic congress 50 long as they
are practiced in behalf Of democratic
success. The present democratic house
of representatives has placed its seal
Of sanction upon election frauds and
general political debauchery, however
audacious and enormous, by supporting
and whitewashing Rockwell, Hills
protege and hcnchman, and that, too,
in defiance of the decisions of the two
highest courts in this state.
The only way to strike terror to the
hearts of these political robbers and
corruptionists is to place and keep the
mighty scepter of the federal authority
in the strong, pure and patriotic hands
Of the republican party.-N. Y. Mail

In voting against the democratic par
ty, we are not simply expressing our
personal condemnation of these Grim
inal political methods, but as well
welding the only weapon that has suf-
ficient temper of steel and keenness of
edge to decapitate the fiery and hid
eous heads of this hydra of political OPP
preston, usurpatlon and corruption.
If we would save the country from
the fatal poison of this democratic mon
ster, which seeks to envelop every state
in its crushing coils, then we must not
only seek republican success in each
state, but, at the cost of any sacrifice of
comfort, convenience and all selfish
considerations, see to it that republican
supremacy is maintained in the federal
government.
There are democrats in Louisiana
who now complain of wrongs visited
upon them by means of their favorite
methods during the recent factional
fight in that state, and they have
threatened to invoke the strong arm of
federal authority for protection and
reparation. But they are withheld
from such a course by the fear Of the
wholesale exposure of their past
crimes and the probable injurious eff
feet upon their own future political
thus established for federal interfer
ference.

being the only clauses which were under de-
bate. The western members made earnest but
unsuccessful appeals for irrigation surveys,
and the extreme western congressman sue

Tor public land surveys increased to S200,0o0

sdered and all the committees amendments
were adopted, when further discussion was
postponed In the course of the debate some
instructive facts were stated as to the operation
OF the contract clause Of the bill .. In the
house there was an attempt made by the free
silver men to rally to the support of Mr. Bland.
who desired to have the silver bullion to be
purchased and that now in the treasury coined
into silver dollars the cost to be paid for out of
the seigniorage to the government, which the
chair ruled out Of order.
In the senate, on the Goth, the river and har-
bor bill was passed, without opposition, and
sent to conference with the house. In the form
in which it passed the bill carr1es about $4,000
less tnan the mouse bill. The remainder OF the
day was spent in passing unopposed bills of the
calendar. In the house twenty pages Of the
sundry civil appropriations bill were gone over.

viding that all pension money received by in
mates of national soldiers homes in excess of
five dollars per month should be deducted in
maintaining the expenses Of the homes ex-
cept where the disabled soldier has wife, de-
pendent parent, or minor child. Then the ex-
cess should be sent to such dependent by the
managers.
In the senate on the 231. the bill introduced
in response to the suggestion Of the presidents
annual message, to punish in United States
courts offences committed against the treaty

the capital Of the nation was taken up, and
large number of bills were passed.

THE Massachusetts Association of I'm
dertakers has put itself on record as
being opposed to Sunday funerals, and
pretty nearly every clergyman in the
state is found to agree with them. OF
course it is urged that to the majority
of people Sunday is the most convenient
day in the week on which to attend
funerals, but the average undertaken
believes that he needs day of rest as
well as other people, while the average
clergyman thinks that a Sunday funeral
consumes time and strength that are
needed for the proper discharge of the
regular duties of the day.
