Hewitt's Sheer at Us.

II was very much out OF taste 60 put
The matter mildly for ex-Mayor Hewitt
10 say, as he did say. Mt the
dinner OF the Southern Society in
New York on the I'D. that the
character Of Southern statesmen has de-
Perforated from the antc-war standard.
The South is indebted to James l.. Gordon.
Esq. formerly a member Of the Virginia
Senate from the county Of Albemare.
now Of New York, for promptly rising
and replying 20 Mr.. Hewitt. and defend
Ing our section-which IT, did In good
spirit and effectively.
Mr.. Hcwitt's complaint seems to be that
tho southern congressman do not accept
New Nork's views on economical questions.
w" dare say that IL our congressman
would consent to receive the dicta Of New
York as 10 how they should vote on the
currency and tariff questions. &C, he
would be unable TO find language sugary
enough 10 commend the greatness Of our
Senators and Representatives.
We take no stock in any suggestion that
our race OF statesmen has died out. There is
AA' AiRAf i'd.gl4 lbI SAlUoSlIE tlllN IMAM
that our race Of military men died out
with the surrender at AppomattoX. An
that the South wants is opportunity. The
trouble is that conditions are somewhat
against us. However. Mr.. Gordon was
able TO show the Southern Society that
the achievements Of southern statesman
ship had been by no means inconsidaable
in late years. but how much greater they
would have been had the South had a bet
ter chance. For a long time W tex
rebels had to labor against the prejudiccs
OF the people of the North-Dcmocrats and
Republicans alike. All the time since the
war We have had TO struggle 10 keep of
negro domination.
Mr. Hewitt and others Of his ilk In the
North do not understand against what
fearful odds we OF the South have fought
how out Of the asl;cs Of or former homes
we have built new dwellings: how turned
over TO the mcrcics of our former slaves
we have at last become the masters Of the
political situation. and how to-day We are
,n as safe and promising a financial con-
dition as any section OF the Union.
We might retaliate upon Mr.. Hewitt by
observing that we have few evidences that
great statesmanship resides at New York
but we forbear; perhaps We do not under
stand the conditions provIslng there, and
so we might do our New York friends in
Justice. Suffice it 10 say that We think it
matter capable OF demonstration that
never In all our history has the
South given better evidence of capacity
10 deal with perplexing problems Of state
than it has since 1866; never has it given
more indisputable proof that it possesses
a. race of energetic, bold. "brainy" men.
And with better opportunities we hope TO
show even better results than those so well
po,nted out by Mr.. Gordon. The time is
coming when we must deal decsively with
the suffrage question, and when that me
mace is removed Mr.. Hewitt will see the
men of the South make still further adj
vance along the line of national statesman

Tho Times end the Deadly Parallel.

We have no idea Of engaging I'm ar,
argument to show that our article Of 1892
had no reference to election frauds. That
article speaks for itself. We claim. on
the contrary. that in its article Of Thurs
day last. the Times surrendered 81 effect
the whole question Of frauds and de-
clarcd that the whites in the negro counties
would always find q way OF keeping the
rule In their own hands. II A,ninvs 10
fur ish a bill of particulars" On this
point. but its language can have no other
meaning than that the whites would by
bribery or by force. or by a show OF
force. or by intimidation OF some sort. or
by trickery or deception keep the negro
votes out OF the ballOt-box. 1t dcnouIc es
false counting after the ballots are
deposited. 1t must mean. therefore. that
there is some cffectual way. which, how
ever, # refuses 20 disclose. Of keeping the
ballots out OF the ballot-boX altogether
We cannot see that intimidation or
fraud Jractlced before the ballots are de-
posted is better than intimidation or
fraud practced after the ballots are de-
posted. We. however, will have Taught
TO do with either. The Timcs's article
reads 10 MS as II it would like TO be
allowed TO ease its conscience BY de-
nouncng post-election fraud and tntimi-
dalton and winking at ante-clcction fraud
and intimidation. In that case we would
like to know how the Times proposes to
explain away its other charge that the
whites in the negro belt have too much
representation in the General Assembly.
We now present once more 'he deadly
parallel. Read for yourselves, and see the
Democratic tone Of the Dispatch's utter
anccs ana the Mugwump tone Of the
Illness.
