Henry Watterson assisted Mr.

of the message is s'lid to have been

If we could be rid of one class
of fools in the South and another
class in the North we should get
along very smoothly They can't
live forever, thank Heaven! and
when they arc out of the way with
their sour tempers yve shall have
peace. 1
There are certain men in the
South who never lose an oppor
tunity to berate the North, to
freshen up the old Confederate
idea which has not simply fallen
asleep, but fs stone dead to stir
up strife by intimating that the
quarrel is not settled yet. Those
fellows would serve the country
better under ground than above
it. They are ghosts, hobgoblins,
nightmares, and they make us as
irritable as though we had the
gout.
I hen there are certain men in
the North yvho are everlastingly
prating about the war spirit, the
war times, the war hatreds, the
war everything. They feel as they
did twenty-five years ago; haven t
grown a bit; don't belong to this
generation any way; ought to have
had their names on morruments
long ago, and because they are
not there make themselves public
scolds and nuisances.
The great bulk of the American
people, however, in South and
North alike, are satisfied with
things as they are and promise to
become. They are ready to shake
hands, lend money to each other,
join in commercial partnership.
and engage in any enterprise that
promises a good return.

The Hillsboro Recorder calls
for Vance for President and Car
lisle for Vice President in 1892
Earlv as it is. we make .bold to
say that we don't want any Car
lisle in ours. If Carlisle, Watter
son. Morrison ana an mat hk 01
single-ideaed theorists were dead
the Democratic party would be
better off and the day of tariff re
form would be hastened. They
have demonstrated their incapac
ity for leadershipand have fatigued
the public by their self-assertion.
Just so. The Landmark has
sized it exactly. On this very
point we have a private letter from
an observing and intelligent Dem
ocrat in Surry county. He says:
uWhat hurt Morehead more than
all else in this section was the
fact that he virtually committed
himself to vote for Mr. John G.
Carlisle for Speaker of the House
of Representatives. A great many
Democrats hold Mr. Carlisle re
sponsible for the defeat or the bill
to repeal the tobacco tax."
We have heard this from more
than one source, and without any
doubt it was a disastrously dis
turbing element iu this district.

The Spu-lt efthe Mom lb.
From the New York Vorld.1
The solid South is not yet bro
ken, and it cannot be broken by
any ot the methods adopted by
the Republicans in the past
Senator Quay's talk of the "mail
ed hand" is either blind madness
or open-eyed folly. What Presi
dent Grant, with his iron will, was
unable to do while the Southern
States were many of them stil
under military rule and the coun
try was wonted to the domination
of force, it is their lunacy to think
that President Harrison would be
able to accomplish twenty years
later, even were be disposed to
undertake it. The day of coercion
and of negro and scalawag rule at
the South has gone by, never to
return. i . '
The spirit of the South1 is na
tional. The race question it must
be permitted to settle for itself.
But there is no other Southern
question that is not also a North
ern and a Western question. The
Southern people are open to ap
peals to their patriotism and their
interests. They can be divided
politically on the tariff question
as soon as the Republican leaders
make it safe for them to separate
There are plain indications that
this is to be the new policy of the
party that will return to power in
March
'Tis a consummation devoutly
to be wished. The Democratic
party will gain more than it can
lose by the destruction of the last
remnant of the old sectionalism.
The House.
Speculation as to the politica
complexion of the next House o
Representatives is still the order
of the day. A Washington letter
says of some of the House officials
"They are in high spirits and
say the Democrats will have the
House by at least three majority
The information upon which they
base their confident! assertions is
not given for the reason that it is
feared the Republicans will induce
some of their northern Governors
to issue certificates to defeated Re
publican candidates, so as to off
set the Democratic majority.
There is no doubt that the Re
publicans are very much excited
at the turn, and that at the meet
ing of their Executive Committee
here next week they will resort to
all sorts of means by which to ef
fect arhanee. one of which will
be to have the certificate of elec
tion issued to Brumra, a defeated
Republican, in Pennsylvania. The
talk about dual houses amounts to
nothing. . If the Republicans have
a majority they will organize the
House without opposition from
the Democrats, and if the latter
have the majority they" will or
eanize it utterly regardless 01
'mailed' or any other sort of hands
f or it to be otherwise would be
revolution, for which the people
of the country are not yet ripe.
The Democrats had, stronger rear
sons for resortine to that course
in 1876. and the Republicans in
18&1. but neither adopted it. It is
reported that should there be a
squabble for. the House some
weak-kneed Democrats would
give 'way to avoid a fuss, but it is
said here it would require more
courage to do that than to stand
in the foremostTrank for the rights
of the party."
.Mrs. Cleveland.
Washington Port.
Mrs. Cleveland's reign at the
White House, from her first en
trance as a young bride, fresh from
college and the experience of a
year's travel abroad, has proved
such an exceptional career of
popular favor through all the try
ing ordeal of her official position,
with its attendant obligations,
that few can be found to fill her
place in the hearts of an admiring
nation, though others may doubt
less assume the "position with
equal grace and dignity. Mrs.
Cleveland is endeared to all
through three years of Jan almost
phenomenal popularity, in which,
by her gentle courtesy and syvect
Christian charity, added to per
sonal qualities of heart and mind,
she has made her memory a sweet

- A Coincidence.
An exchange calls attention to
the fact that in the j history of the
United States but two Presidents
have been defeated for re-election
Martin Van Buren in 1840
and Grover Cleveland in 1888. It
is not an uninteresting coincid
ence that the successful candidate
n the second contest should be
the grandson of the successful
candidate in the first. Moreover
both defeats yvere incurred on
commercial questions. The New
York Times says? "Van .Buren
was beaten as a result of the panic
of 1837, from the effects of which
the country had not recovered at
the close of his administration.
Mr. Cleveland, on the-other hand,
das been defeated while the coun
try is in a condition of great pros
perity, from fear that that pros
perity might be interrupted by the
adoption of the reform in the tariff
which he had" recommended and
his party had endeavored to effect.
It is to be hoped that the parallel
may go no further." .
