Repu biicauism in the south.

The trip recently made by Governor
Mckinley to the South Is only one OF a
number Of facts which 20 20 show that
the Republicans Of the North are watch
Ing the southern people with intense In
terest. The st. Louis Globc-Democrat
expresses what Is the general northern
belief when II says. as II does, that there
can be no doubt that the Republican
party is rapidly gaining favor and sup
port In the South. That paper adds that
the result OF the elections in the South
ern States last fall was a revelation"
We quote the Globe Democrat:
1T means that the intelligent white
people OF that part OF the country are
beginning 10 realize the Importance OF
needing the lessons OF experience which
are but another name for practical wis
DOM"
They see at last the folly OF clinging
to a party that has never done anything
for them. and that can not be depended
upon for any better service than that OF
keeping alive the prejudices Of the war
for political Effects Having reached this
conclusion. they are not likely TO make
the mistake of Joining any third party.
They will become Republicans. because
that Is the only rational and practical
way of getting what they want. No new
party can do for them what is necessary
to put their section In the way OF de-
velopIrg Its resources. increasing It's
commerce. and becoming soundly and
permanently prosperous"
We would say TO our st. Louis con-
temporary that II no new party can do
for the southern people what the old
Republican party can do. then no new
party can do for the southern people
what the old Democratic party can do.
And accordingly we have again and again
warned the Democrats Of our section
TO cling to that party as long as 1t stands
for the true principles Of free government
handed down to us by the fathers OF the
republic Jeffersonian. Jacksonian Demo-
cracy will never be out Of date so long
as the people OF this country shall heed
the teachings Of history. 1t would be
objectionable for the southern Demo-
Gratis, and especially the Virginia Demo-
Gratis. ever to think of separating them
selves from the body Of the glorious old
Democratic party. stand firm" is the
watchword. The present condition OF
things cannot continue forever.
