From an editorial in one of the load

tenco ia taken:
The suspicion has boen}growing for
somo timo that the average northern
Democrat has no further uso for south
ern Democrats than to employ hem as a
convenient stepping stone to Office q
The last people in the world who
should complain Of the fidelity Of nor.
thorn Democrats are tho Democrats y Of
tho south. From the pointof Wow OF
moro Ctiioo g0tting We cannot oritioise
them, We Democrats Of the south get
oil tho state Offices from governor to
coroner. We got all tho ooneressm en-.
What do northern Democrats got? Vory
few offices, state or federal. From al
office holding standpoint it is to their
interest to quit Democracy and drift into
the Republican party. rs s. 4
From 1864 to the piesent time the
northern Democrats have been true to
