CAN'T FORGET THE PAST.

to forget the past. nor is 1t blind to the
possibilities of tie future. II says: "rhe
the South ever had IL the Republican
party. All OF the political evils that the
South has suffered since The Republic
can party came into existence and
power sprang from that party. The
Republican party deprived Southern
States of their individuality. put crimi-
nails in authority, turned thieves into
the State Treasures and their LcEisla-
lures and held them there Mt the point
of the bayonet. II melted the recently
freed slaves to deeds of violence. and
made liberty farce. The people OF the
South have not forgotten. and will not
forget, the reconstruction period and
the Republican rarty'S part In that
black page OF American history. All
that the South Is to-day she owes TO
the Democratic party. She will, there
fore, bear much from that party be-
fore she will desert it,"
notwithstanding that what the News
saws is so, and that the country is in
danger OF seeing some of the outrages
repeated, should tho Republicans return
TO power, the News hestitates to give
its support to the Democratic ticket
nominated at Chicago. 1t will have to
choose between the two tickets that
nominated at Chicago or at St Louis
