French soil regularly had French vet

ABAD YEAR FOR BOSSES.
Wilmington Messenger.

L
i We endea vored Saturday
to pointout the distinction
between party organization
and what, in the language Of
the day, is called the "ma=
chine" 1t is q distinction
with the greatest possible diff
ferences, party organization
being intended tn serve the
many. this machine to serve
the few ut the expense of the
many. Unless the machine is
crushed and party organiza-
tion restored to it's throne,
the end of our republic would
soon be reached.
Machine politics is the out
growth Of municipal politics.
Nathaniel Macon. one OF the
greatest Of Americans ami a
democrat Of democrats, said
that "cities were sores ON the
body polite. Before thelate
war, the rural and agricultu-
raj South supplied an anti
dote to the !etid. politics of
the congeste'l populations Of
the North, and thus a ball
ance wheel of conservatism
to the nation. For along pc
riod after the close of t h e
war the South was too busy
with the problem Of filling
the hungry belly, which the
loss Of that great strife had
forced it to, TO give atten-
tion to politics. COncurrently

in the bucket of inHu-

drop III the bucket OF lnfiu-
ence. The result was an ar
restation oftherea adjustment
which had set in, and which
had egun to proceed SO
smoothly under the Influence
Of the balance wheel which
the Old South was again con
t. ibuting to Federal politics.
Perhaps the election of Mr.,
Harrison and the Reed and
Mckinley Congrets in 1888
was the way the people took
to manifest their conscious;
ness that Il halt in the move
ment referred to had taken
place.
The real South, however,
does not die essily. The
real South is largely the ru
raj South-the old South are
older States of the South
which supplied the indom-
liable legions OF Lees army.
This rural South had lost
somewhat by its contlibu-
tions immigration to the
cities, resulting from the
breaking up caused by the
war, and it has lost very de-
cidedly in the lack OF higher
education which the fathers
OF the new generation it was
putting into the field, had
enjoyed. But while this new
generation thus lacked the
training in the fundamentals,
which would have retained
them from yielding to the
vagaries of the Populist lead
era, they had preserved the
sturdy independence Of the
fathers and the sound COM
mon sense of the fathers,
which taught them to know
when they were hit, if not
precisely how. And being
hit, they kicked back so lusti
ly, through the Farmers AL
lance, that they forced upon
the Democracy at Chicago
the well nigh perfect plat
form there adopted-the
platform that guided the pur
poses and strengthened the
arms Of the true representa-
tives OF the South in the re-
cent silver struggle in the
Senate.
| Those who care to do So,
as We do not at present, may
pursue this subject a little
further, and possibly with
the result, as they get into
details, Of uncovering to
