REPRE- sEHrArlon OF the SOUTH.

Recent iftimations that the Republi-
cans in the National Convention would
take some action upon the question Of
securing reduction in the representation
of the Southern States, both in Congress
and the Electoral College, is beginning to
attract the attention of newspapers and
politicians at the South. How the South
ern Democrats could expect anything
else to follow their persistent efforts to
suppress and disfranchise the negro vote
is very strange. 1t is not only reasonable
but just that there should be no repre-
sentation on vote that is either not per-
mitted to be cast or is not counted when
cast. Of course when the movement be-
gins, as it is sure to do, there will be a
great howl setup by the Southern Demo-
Gratis about the injustice of such q pro-
ceeding. The Richmond Times in a re-
cent editorial discussing the question
saws. "The movement will meet with
stubborn opposition from the politicians
of the South" But the times proceeds
to say:
"For our part, while we do not want
10 see the South's representation in Con-
grees cut down, We would be willing to
make the exchange with the North OF
every Congressman and every voter in
the Electoral College which the South has
based on negro suffrage for freedom from
negro suffrage, and we would accept the
exchange as an inestimable boon from a
merciful God to an afflicted people. Only
Let the North agree to the repeal Of the
Fifteenth Amendment and We will
accept the consequences. As we
have said, the politicians of the South,
would, Of course, object, but we believe
that the bone and sinew Of the Southern
States would be overwhelmingly for it," !

THURSDAY, JUNE, 81, 1900.
PREPARE FOR BATTLE.

We will not deny that many recent
events are well calculated to discourage
the Republicans of the Ninth Compression
al District, and cause them to think that it
lie, perhaps, useless to attempt to defeat
the Democratic machine in this district.
The cause for which the Republicans have
heretofore fought is, however, entirely too
sacred to be left unsupported, and the
chances for victory over fraud too good for
the party to assume an attitude of indiffer-
ence or G1ssssnair.
It is true that at the 6GhRs ssssfSSnal cleo:
ton of 1898 all the corrupt devices that
are suggested and permitted by the Wal
ton election law were employed to defeat
the Republican candidate, and that many
Of the crimes committed in that election
were 30 successfully covered up as to re-
ceive technical approval. 1t is also true
that the Democrats are very boastful and
iubilant over the unexpected finding Of the
Elections Committee in favor of Rhea,
equally as unexpected by Democrats as it
was astounding to Republicans. But pres
ent conditions are not as unfavorable to
Republican SUCCESS in this district at the
coming election as many suppose. The
1885 men who voted for General Walker
in 1898 are now as finn in their devotion
to Republican principles as they were
then; and are ready and eager to join with
the enemy IN battle. They have learned
much about the tactics of the Rhealtes
and will know better how to defeat the
schemes of inscriptions ballot manipula'
tors.
Another thing that will be favorable to
the Republicans is that the approaching
election is o Presidential one; and the
election officers who were pursuaded to
commit frauds in the interest Of Rhea and
against Walker will bs reluctant to risk
the exposure that will certainly follow a
repetition of their tricks, if committed at
Presidential election. They will have Elk
teen thousand or more Republicans watch
ing them, ready to denounce and expose
frauds and in many instances ready to in
flict punishment upon those who boldly
attempt to rob them al the polls.
The district, with an honest vote and
fair count, is Republican by anywhere from
three to five thousand; and with careful
organization, close watch upon the regis
tration, and determined front on the day
of election will be as safely Republican as
nearly any district IN the United States.
All that is necessary to win victory is for
the Republicans in each county to deter
mine that they will not be cheated. That
is the way the Republicans Of Tazewell
have always shown their colors, hence the
splendid majorities given for the party in
this county. We do not mean to say that
the election officers of this county would
have committed frauds, but we do mean
to assert that if they had attempted such
thing the Republicans would have asserted
their rights in very positive way.
Courage, Republicans of the Ninth Dis
trict Prepare for battle You can, you
must win !

The Southern politicians are not likely
to endorse this reasonable proposition Of
the Times. They are too greedy for of.
fee and power. 1t has been their greed
that has led our section into 80 many
foolish positions beginning with the su'
preme folly of secession. But for their re-
fusal to accept what tue Times is now will
ing to accept, the Fourteenth Amend
ment and reduced representation, there
would never have been any Fifteenth
Amendment and no Reconstruction
period.

WHAT POPULIST POLITICS COST.
Philadelphia Press.

Illinois in 1892 elected John P. Alt
geld Governor on fusion policy which
brought to the support of the Democratic
tick the Populist vote. In 1894 strike
came in Chicago. Governor Altgeld's
policy of delay, connivance and encourage
ment for the mob plunged the city into
anarchy and disorder from which it was
only rescued by Federal troops after
weeks of riot and murder.
Missouri has to-day Governor elected
by q like deal. The Democracy Of St.
Louis is a Populist Democracy. 1t
stands by Bryan. 1t stands for the Chi.
cago platform. Governor Lon V. Ste
phens is Populist in his alliances, bis as
sociations and his leanings.
St. Louis to-day has it's strike. 1t is
running the course of the Chicago strike.
1t has the sympathy of Democratic
Police Board. Governor Stephens does
nothing to check it. He is waiting until
the Democratic State Convention tomor.
row has selected him as Bryan delegate
to Kansas City.
Enforcement of law would be no help
to his canvass in Bryan Democratic con.
vention. The maintenance Of order
would not help with Democratic dele
gates who support the Chicago platform
of 1896. The candidate, the party, its
platform and all its policy all favor dis
order. 1t casts discredit on the courts.
1t gives law no support. Its elected can.
didates condone riot, rapine and disorder,
as Governor Altgeld did in Chicago and
as Governor Stephens does in st. Louis.
This is the cost of Populist politics for
every State and city.

TUE Richmond Times assumes that Sem
ator Daniel would make very strong
Presidential candidate for the Democratic
party, and especially so at the South.
The fact is that Daniel is no stronger than
his party in Virginia, and the same meth.
DDS would have to be employed to carry
it for him that were used for Cleveland
and Bryan. The Times knows what kind
of methods were used.

THEY talk about it being possible for
Bryan to carry Connecticut. Recently
Democratic caucuses were held in sixteen
towns in that State and the total number
of voters who attended the sixteen caucus
es was forty eight. In one town which
gave Cleveland 100 votes in 1892 nobody
responded to the call for a Democratic
meeting. 1t looks like Organism is about
dead in Connecticut.
