"My Dear SRI cannot say I am much
elated by the victory by the Republican
party, though l am glad that the Demo-
cratic party has met with defeat. 1 have
my fears that the victory Of the Republic
cans may make them even little more
Indifferent about protecting human rights
under the constitution than they were
when they were in power before. 1t is to
the shame of the Republican party that
it could protect the rights of American
citizens everywhere but at home. It
made no earnest effort to see that the
constitution was obeyed in the southern
states and the ballot box protected. The
fourteenth amendment q declares that
when any state shall deprive any. OF its
citizens of the elective franchise, repre-
sentation shall be reduced, etc. No at
tempt has been made to enforce this pro-
vision by the Republican party or by any
other, yet all sWore to support the con-
stltuuon. l have not declared for any
particular candidate Tor the Republican
nominal ton in 1896, nor do see any need
Of such declaration at this distance of
time. The man likely to get it will be
from a state which the Republicans may
think it difficult, but important to carry
Old Mr.. Availability will, as usual, decide
the question as to who the man shall be;
still, we have a chance of getting bet
ter man from the Republicans than from
the Democrats or the PopuliSts.
