A BRIGHT 1DK.4.
A bright idea has struck one of the
Republican editorial brethren in rhe
North to recover the States in the
North which voted against j Blaine,
and thus have a solid North again.
He thinks this can be done by ins
rdng Aegroes from the South.1 fit
would take several thousand or them
to answer the purpose, but he thinks
it would pay and be cheaper than
spending the large sums of money
that are required at every Presiden-.
tial election. , It would doubtless be
cheaper if they could prevail on, the
colored men to immigrate, and pron
vided the colored men after they had
immigrated did not come to the con
clusion to vote the Democratic ticket.
In that event it would be a bad in
vestment. .And then again the col
ored men invited to change quarters
might ask for some guarantee that
they wouldn't run the risk of starve
ing co death, or be cut down to short
rations, as so many of the laborers
up in those States now are, or of
freezing to death in the winter time.
There are, it is true, many colored
people in those States who manage to
get along and not freeze to death' in
the winter time, but they .get snug
berths that those imported voters
could not expect to secure until they
had learned the ropes. j
A better plan would be to get up a
big immigration boom to the South,
special inducements being offered to
Democrats to immigrate and take' up
their residences in Dixie. In that
effort we would do all we could to
help them, would offer the inarms
grants , the best we had in the shop.
and be really glad to them come.
We wouldn't be prevented : by the
contingency of losing' a few States,
because we think that by the time the
Democratic party - has run , the gov
ernment for four years there will be
Democratic majorities in so , many
Northern" and Western States that
we could spare a half a dozen or so.
Otherwise we might not incline to
this plan, and would rather be dis
posed to gee the former method
adopted. They have tried the colored
colonizing plan in the border States
with some success, but not on the ex
tensive scale here proposed.
One thing is evident, uur Republi
can friends are vejry much worried
over hDw they are going to recover
lost ground, and go into another tace
with the solid South and four North ern
States against them,, and several
others very uncertain. About the
best thing they can do is to dissolve
the old concern and .build up anew
party, which may stand a chance a
quarter of a century hence. j
The TJnipn League of Philadelphia
seems to be somewhat troubled over
the question whether we have a I Ren
publican form of government in, some
of the Southern States. The South
sampled the Republican fcyrxn c gov
ernment most approved by the Union
League several years ago,' and - aa it
didn't pan out satisfagQrally she
concluded shd wfmW try tb,e pevao
eratio form, and since then she has
been getting along ve ry nioely. ' It it
8uiu the South it ought to suit the
Union League, . ' '.
The managers of the New Orleans
Exposition want to borrow . the old
Independence bell that hangs, nj Phil
adelphia, hut the Philadelphians are
fearful that something might happen
it. nind don't want to let it go so far
from home. '
r. ' ... t
In a -recent interview with ' Mr.
Blaine he expressed the opinion that
his defeat was due to the hostility of
Conkling,' wh6 d, friA uim
h0 vqtejs n lew ork which would
haye elected him. Jf ropawy i uons-
ling agrees with him in this opinion.
The room at Worms, Germany, m
which Martin Luther pade b,i8 fa-
mqqsi speech hefore Emperor Charles
Y.J is now a beer saloon, in front of
which a wooden B.urgundian I king,
with a very red pose, stands, as a
Senator Bayard recently ., visited
President elect Cleveland, but up to'
this time no Republican paper has
announced a coolness between them.
The Blaine organs are etiU discus
ing St. John., They are ; really, very
Rngry with him, and seem determined
that he shall know it. , . ;
There is a move on foot in Congress
to provide for a colored people s Ra
tional exposition at some central
point, probably in the South-
President Arthur's friends . will
