2 I SOUTHERNER FOR ’96 WIIY NO r A SOUTHERN DEMO. CHAT FOR PRESIDENT NOMINEE. THE WAR ENDED 30 YEARS AGO. Tire Washington Tost Gives Strong He a sons Whs a Southern -lan •‘houltl Head the Democratic Presidential Ticket— W ashingtou News and Go-- .ip About North Carolina and North Carolinians—Tar Ileel Visitors at the C'apitol--Kansoin in Mexico Washington, D. C.. April 4. To-day’s Washington Post will say : “Why should not the Democratsnom ' a Southern man next year ? Why wo Mn’t that be the right thing to do the co-ageoiis, the consistent, the equi table thh T $ Why, indeed ! “Thirty j-. ars have passed s nee the tilose of the »ar between the States. In that time Üb vr ly all the men who brought on that n'daneholy conflict or took active part in ft have disappeared Os the few who still survive and w)o occupy public or conspicuous positi«n, it may be truly said that they are as good citizens-as loyal, as patriotic as truly devoted to t o ro ea ab.khed union -as any of their fellow cointry aea on ths side of the Poomac. They have served in the Cabinet aud in Congress, they ha e held high place in moments of great emergency, and at no time or under any circumstances have they proved delinquent in anything that goes to make a faithful, intelligent, and xealous representative of the Union and its institutions. They have al ways been among the first aud the most enthusiastic ebampiou3 of the national honor aud integrity They have yielded precedence to none in jealous advocacy of the cour toy and the flag. As tor the Southern peo pie in general —the present generatioi — they know of the war only by hearsay and tradition. T >thon the war is a rame abstract ion—hardly a persona- memory. They do not recognize it or its influences in their philosophy It h,s se»t them no message, brqueathtd them no leg j acy. Saving the pride they t-ke in the vafi-r and devotion of their fathers —a sentiment which honors them they think and remember nothing of the war, its triumphs, its disasters, and its aui mosdies. Their plans arc for the pres ent, their hopes are in toe future. This »thr ir country, consecrated for them by two unmemorable tragedies. They have no thought or dream which d >es not include the glory, the greatness, aud the perpetuity of the Union. ‘ ‘How much longer is the South -tl e most distinctively American section of the country to. be the poor relation ml the family of the States? Upon what ■hypothesis do- s the Democratic party propose to exclude from recognition and from leadership three-fourths of its Strength, its substance, and its brains ! Without the South the national Dt-mo eracy would be an inconsiderable factor in nati nal affairs. Its possibilities would be limited to small municipal vic tories and petty village spoil-*. It would fig ire in the nation very mm h as the S ate organiz »tioa now tg ares in Michigan. The world wouui j forget it. or remember it only for pur poses of amusement. Its p > ! ency, ns consequence, its weight c<*me from the South. Take away the South, and the Democratic party, so tar as concerns Natiouai affairs, would be a poor and ineff csual thing It would be reduc d to a mere insignificant coterie in the great world of polities. Why. then, does the party hold to the Sou h’s reluc tant lips the bitter cup of seif eff-teement and why is it that a proud, intelligent, j and homogeneous people bring th» m selves to drink? Where is the justice, , the propriety, the wisdom ot the ar | rangemen? “p isd fflcult, lookingat the matter ra tion ally, to understand the altitude of the atuoual party and the acquiescence of tie South. Here we have three fourths o r an organiz ttion quietly submitting o dbmination by the other fourth, arid timely iudorsmg a stigma which it ghoul 1 by every consideration of dignity reseur ; Possibly it is habit ror two deca< es. at least, Southern Democrats have ag'-eed ; jo the proposition set up by their N rth ern colleagues that the country is not ready for a candidate from the section lately in rebel ion against the g*m-ra government. For two decades and more it has been an accepted theory tha a Southern candidate would alarm the American people, w< uhi r-; vive all the memories, the apprehe i *jions aud the antagonisms of iH6I-’o And, during all that tim*, the Southern Democracy have a-sentod without pro test, subordinated themselves to the mere phantom of a van'suei pasr, roe* kl> j borne the heat and burden of successive campdgus, furnished the r.tuk a d tile for all he great battles, and stood <-id • in bumble deference and unc unplaining abnegation while the fruits of their j Strength aud prowess were divided am mg the members of an insignificant con tinged. But why? Ar most, tii-swa only an ex >edient. It was never essentially a matter of prmcip e and pr putty. Smthern men were jus' as much citizens of the U- i T e<i •'tans in 1866 as they are to-day. They ha t the same righ’s then that they had ten y» before < r have to-day or can ever ha\e antil the end of things in tins Republic. As an expedient, however, wb le the p t- - siuns of the war still retained a fracioo of their pristine heat; while ir was p le gible to urgv and easy to concede that the men who had defended an i pre served the Union should be the men to control its destinies through the period of trouble, trausitiou, and re. d -3ustment— during such an interval i< was, perhaps, expedient tha r . a Southern man should not aspire to rule the Nat oa he had so recevu endeavor ed to dismember, recg z i Hi force of (MV assumption. ntwnat ha all this to < o with 1 r<y<i, thirty \e s after the failure of the reb liiou, tliinv years after the dis mrsion of the Coined aiatc armies, when nine tenths of the men who tore arms against the i n «ui are sleepi gin their graves and when for more tb in a quarter - f ac-no-ry. beenpeccefu!harvostshavelau t hi go *r the scars and teams of fractrieida l war > “It seems to us that the Dem crane party is illogical, or cowardly, or much too sluggish of perception It seems to us that the Southern Democrats have too 1- mg deferred their proper claims and sunk their proper self respect. Tne ar rangement is preposterous. It is an ar rangement under which the national Democracy cannot much longer be held together. The South has sat below the salt for thirty years; and in all that time the South hits supplied the banquet, not only with the salt itself, but with every one of the viands it was used to savor. For how many more years will the South endure this degradation and the North continue to profit by it ? “Why not a Southern Democrat for 1 Lieutenant Exline of the Watch force of the Interior Department went over to Baltimoie to day to meet his wife who will vis* him for the next two weeks The Bay Boat from Norfolk had quite a pary from Pittsboro on board Among those in the party were Mr. A G. Bynum an* Mr. A. G ’ Heading of the firm of R/num & Heading; Mr. W. L. London } nd Mr. Hal Loudon of the firm of W. 1. London & Son, and Mrs. W L. London. These gentlemen will spend several days in Baltimore aud New York buying their summer and fall stocks. Capt. Arthur Barnes, who has for twenty years held a position in the Sen ate chamber, will leave this week for North Carolina. Captain Barnes will return here in December and most pr*’b ably will retain his old position. For fi teen years he has been one of the caucus appointments aud his chances are very good for a re-appointment. It is a custom in the Senate that the mi nority caucus has the priviledgeto name ab >«t six officers Minister Riusom and son. Mr Robert Ransom, will arrive in the city of Mexico </n the fifth instant. They were in New Orleans on Monday and left in the after noon by the Southern Pacific A private telegram *o a prominent North Caro linian was received to day. It reported both well and the Minister standing rh trip excellently. Tee heat has been ter rible but it has not aff< c r ed either. Several ex North Carolinians called on the Minister when in he was New Or leans Mr. W. W. Scott, acting Deputy Fifth Auditor of the Treasury, writes thus to h.s paper, the Lenoir Torpic: “Mr. Jo sephus Daniels, editor of the Raleigh News and Observer, who fell sick of the grip because the Douglass Legisla ture adjourned and lost itself all over North C rolina, arrived here the first of t - is week to see his friends and to re cuperate. He looks much better than 1 exp-cted of a man who had experienced the double application of the grip and sixty days of Douglassism. His friends in the Interior Department took advantage of his presence here to make a formal plantation of a hand some and cos ly silver service that the Interior Department employees chipped in and bought for their popular ex Chief Clerk. The o< casion amounted to an ovation to the man who has furnish* d the only known instance of an office holder fitting lo~se without dying or getting fired Referring to his popula ity. I must tell this one on him if it makes him my enemy for life. Seere tary Smith was remarking upon the popularity of his friend Daniels to a number of his friends and they were accounting for it in various ways, upon the score of his ge niafity, pleasant maimers, accomtnoda tion, indefatigability. “I'll explain it,” said Judge Hull, a devoted friend of Mr Daniels, “this is the secret of it: He promised ever) thing to everybody and tt.en lit out!” That brought down the house. Mr Daniels left for Ralei* h last night. Mr B R. Lacy, Labor Com missiont-r, “the brand from the burn it g,” whom the Douglasses tried their best to fl e. but couldn't, came with Mr Daniels and his friends were delighted tn see him ” Mr. Bunn is here. He visited the depa-: - ra*-U'S to day and was at the committee rooms. It is said he is here in the in t r*st of a friend in Rocky Mount. Mr. Soaw, of Buckingham, is here visiting his son, Clif Shaw. He will leave on Monday. He is confident the Snve will lie regained by the Democrats in ’96. He says the Populists in h s section are disgusted with the Legis lature. M V. Blake, a negro fr< m Morgantou, who has been claim agent for several tear-, has been debarre * from practising before the Interior Department, for vio lation of the pension laws Blake was convicted in the United States Court and s-utenc* d to imprisonment, his crime be mg swindling an old woman out of her pension.
