THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 12, 1879

WITH SUPPLEMENT.

WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 12. The total receipts of gold from Europe sicca August 1 amount to $19,159,275. . Not nation with a big 'N," bat Union with a big 'TJ." As Governor Hendricks pota it neither a "solid South," ntr "eolid Korth," but a solid Union. General Butler is defeated for the fourth time. He is a plucky old coon, and ran better in the last race than be did the first This fact may indoce him to try it again. Jcdoe Maetisdale, of the Journal, is trying to "go beck" on that Greenback convention which he presided over a few years since. "Tis treason! we say 'tis treason:" It is very touching this solicitude about Itr. Tiiden on the part of the Republican; and then, too, hew beautiful and endearing baa Tammany become to them! Well, Tammany did elect tbeir New York governor. Governor Bhhop, of Ohio, sued the Cincinnati G.iatte, yesterday, for $60,000 alleged KbeL . Now, If Governor Blackburn, f Kentucky, would bring a similar suit for the many lies which that sheet ha told bout him, perhaps it might be taught some decency. Wi have advices tha. 20 negro families of the advance of the Republican colonization army have arrived in Bartholomew county. If they were in Massachusetts all the males of 21 and upward would have to read and write before they could vote, but as it stands they will be able to vote next year the entire Republican ticket What a glorious affair the registry law is tor the Republicans of Philadelphia. There were 25,000 more registrations in Philadelphia than in New York. Oae chap was paid a dollar and voted the Republican ticket eight times on bis own confession. He was held in $500 ball, and the man who paid him the dollar was held for $l,G0O. The Chicago chaps of the Grant boom have been checked. A member of one of the largest business houses calls it presidential advertising," and that he is not in favor of a third term, although a Republican. The enthusiasm is waning. Tour thousand dollars is about all that can be raised, although it waa;intended that $15,000 should be collected and expended. The elections are over, and it msy be well enough to make some figures relating to re sults in 1880 after the presidential cam paign has been fought Everybody now admits that New York' is Democratic. In. disna's position is not questioned only by idiots. Sixteen Southern States are solid for the Democratic patty. These facts sim plify the problem. Such being the solid facts, let us see how matters are likely to stand in the next electoral college. Dem. Alabama.. Arkansas. Delaware. Votes. Rep. Votes. Colorado Connecticut IlIlooU.--....

Necessary to elect, 185. It is generally conceded that California and New Jersey are doubtful States, and no intelligent man will question the political complexion of the States we have plaoed in the Democratic column, while at least one State (Maine) which we have placsd in the Republican column, is not Republican, With these figures and facts before the peo ple, we see much to encourage the Demo cratic party and nothing calculated to make it despondent The Cincinnati Enquirer has a New . Orleans lunatic for a correspondent, who is doubtless of the same poiitcal oompiexion as its Indianapolis correspondent, both of whom are engaged in using the colnmns of the Enquirer to kelp on Republican schemes. And, strange to say, the Enquirer seems to like the business qci'te as well as Its correspondents. The Enquirer's latest sensation is thst a scheme is on foot in the South to re-elect Hayes, by carrying three and possibly four Southern States over to the Xepublicaa party. The States named -are Louisiana, Florida, South Carolina and Georgia. Possibly such a scheme is on foot There is nothing surprising in it It is more nonsense than news, and the fact that the Enquirer's correspondent charges upon die tinguished Democrats a purpose to commit . fraud to thwart the scheme indicates protty eonc'usive'y the animus of the communication. As. for instance, in speaking of the situation rn Florida,' the Enquirer's correspondent refers to a wish on the part of Democrats to have an extra session ot the Legislature, which G aver nor Drew will call, provided the expenses of the session are guaranteed to the amount of $25,000. "There Is no need," says the correspondent, "for any special session for the canal project, because that can wait, but they want the election law changed, so that the Legislature can choo?e the presidential electors, and thus take it out of the hands of the people altogether." And then follows a strange colloquy, In which the correspondent seems , to be talking to himself, as follows: "Why docsnt Tllden pat up the money T" "He's been talked to about It, but he Is afraid of it being tracked to him." "Have you any idea who Is In this thing?" "It's mostly Northern men who are figuring In It Two or three members of .the Demoeratls National committee have been working It up, but It nas sot to be talked about so mneh - lately that nobody will dare to put up his money, and I believe it will fall through because or its publicity. It's too open a fraud. It beats the returning board business, because it ignores the rights of the people altogether and allows the Legislature to go ahed and east the vote of ths State." The Enquirer indulges laths belief that Hsyts is popular in the South, and that it

would not be a difficult matter for him to

inaugurate a second term boom, and effectually upset all other Republican booms. It says President Hayes' policy toward the booth we mean his policy of action, not of wordshas done much to strengthen him with the people there. He may be a narrow-minded partisan In his attitude' toward a Democratic Congress; he may have vetoed bills whose Justice and equity were as widely recognised as the declaration of independence Itself; he may have refused to sanction appropriations for the army and the department of Justice; he may have Insisted that deputy United States marshals should watch every election in the cities of the North; but for all this, his dealings with the Southern people have been uoh as were nominated in the bond. Peace baa been restored to the Sooth not by the Interference ot the mailed band of the Federal Government but because It was withdrawn, and the Southern States were allowed to conduct their own affairs Just as the Northern States eondnct theirs. This is Hayes' strong point with the Southern people, as It is his weak one with those of his own party In the North. Still, nominations are made ofiener on the grounds of expediency than anything else and It Is not unlikely that Hayes will be likely to turn this Southern strength vastly to his benefit. If he Is not deterred from doing so by the advice of John Sherman. In all of the foregoing gush about Hayes' treatment of the South, the Enquirer simply falsifies history. Io the beginning of Hayes' administration there was but one trouble in the 83uth, so far as the administration was concerned, of sufficient magnitude to call for the action o! Congress, and that was the presence of Federal troops stationed in the South to overawe the people and to maintain bogus S'.ate governments. The entire credit of removing the troops, and the restoration of the Southern State! to local self-government is due to the Democratic party, and not to Hayes nor to the Republican party. The Democrats in Congress created the inevitable, and the troops were removed. Hayes could not resist, and retain his army. What Hayes has since done for the South to earn its gratitude it would be difficult for the Enquirer to specify. He hss appointed a set of in famous scoundrels to -lucrative offices for tbeir participation in the crime of the century, which placed him in power. He has antagonized every measure in the interest of the liberties of the people. North and South, and has shown himself to be a weak and pliant tool in the hands ot the worst meu of his party. It is well to be generous. It is better to be just; and the Enquirer should make a note ot these truisms. THE KECEHT PLEBE3CITE THE RESUXT THE LESSON. The elections of November have closed political accounts for the current year. They have left the result of the presidential con test of 1880 wholly undetermined. Nothing shows this more clearly than the super abundant rejoicing ot the Republican im perialiats, over what they claim as vic tories! Their partial recovery in Maine, their re duced msjjrities in Ohio and Pennsylvania, their questionable advantages in Minnesota and Iowa, occasioned wholly by the returns of recalcitrant fiaUsts to their former political allegiance. These successes, all of which have occurred in States which have always, in a partisan sense, been Republl can. may be well summarized in that ancient formula: The Dutch have taken Holland. The Republican press and politl dsns seem to be exceedingly gratified that they have so far escaped overwhelming de feat in their own stronghold. They flatter themselves with the notion that the idea ot a third term for General Grant, centralized absolutism, and a psr petual presidency, so clearly foreshadowed in tbeir political programme, have been in some manner definitively approved; or at least not decidedly rejected in the recent local elections. They take no acconnt ot the indignant rebuke and thorough condemns' tion which awaits them when tho time comes that these subjects are to bs passed upon in a national canvass by ths people at large. There is iu the masse i of a free roantry a power of renewal, of constant an 1 continuing renovation by a return when' ever necessary to first principles ot jut! government That power is still in existence; it will be exercissi, and will not only defeat but utterly destroy whatsoever and whomsoever may resist it The States, after all, elect ths president The votes of Indiana and New York and ths 8tates South, in the electoral college, can make the president, and the late elections have made it certain, if it wars bafore at all uncertain, that these votes cm not be given for any Republican. We may rest assured that in no event can the majority ot the electoral votes be cast for any Rspublicau candidate for the presi dency, unless, indeed, It be brought about by such disssnsions and divisions in our own ranks as shall prevent a united expression and action of Damoc ratio sentiment and opinion. It bscomes, then, a momentous question how shall the Damoc ratio vote bs united? Vnlted.lt must succeed; divided, it must fail, and the Government become a prey to thoss who have long ago declared their hostility to its constitutional spirit and principles, and who will sooner or later subvert even Its very form. From what State and from among what people ought the next Dsmooratio candidate to be chosen? We say, as we have said before, that in this relation Indiana occupies a position of supreme and peerless eminence. Recent events have given, li possible, additional significance and power to that position. Indiana is the one State in the West, and one ot the only two States in the North, which can be certainly raliel upon to cist the vote of her electors for the Dsmocratic nominee. Now let us look briefly at the history of Dresldential nominations. No Dirty in tbii country has at any time made a nomination for president outsids of the States which it expected to succeed in at the election. No candidate for the presidency has ever been elected who did notrecieve ths vote of the State where he resided. Candidates have always been selected with careful reference to their geographical locality, not only with respect to the colleagus on the ticket for ths second office, but also with reference to the alternation, geographically considered, ot their predeossiors. Ws had ormerly Yan Buren, Pierce sod Buchanan

in the East, alternating with Polk, Cass and

Douglas in the West The Democratic party has adhered right atralghtly to these usages until sines 1860. Ths misfortunes which hsve overtaken us in a disregard of these usages may teach us the policy and wisdom of a return to them. We have had now in the recent past a continuous series of candidates from the East McClellan, 8ey- ! mour, Greeley and Tiiden. For 23 years the nominees for the first office have corns from the East Ought not the Wsst, once in a quarter of a century at last, to have a Damoc ratio candidate for the presidency? In what way hss shs been virtually dibfranchised in this regard, or deserves such dis franchisement? Indiana was tberrt of the Status North to deHver a decisive defeat to Republicanism since the war. Shs was the pioneer in the task of restoring the country "to a coastita tional Government, wrenched as it was by that great convulsion from the practice, precepts asid traditions of its founders. Mr. Hendricks was the first Democratic governor sleeted in any northern State after the close of the war. Mr. Kerr, of Indiana, was the first Damoc ratio speaker ot the Home of Representatives chosen since the war. That the Stat s 8outh are new enjoying the advantages ot self-governmentand horns rule, a secure and peaceful autonomy, is due, under Providence, vastly more to the early attitude of Indiana, her then governor and her delegation in Congress, than to any other cause whatever. Indeed, the contest for civil rights and liberty in the South was fought and won in Indiana in 1872 and 1874 Nowhere else were these rights recognize 1 and successfuilg vindicated. It was not in the power ot any Southern Stale, even Dale ware, brave and loyal as she has al ways been, to do this thing. Is was in the power ot many Northern States. The many lacked the will to do it Bat Indiana did it did it first and what she has done and said first. she has continued to do and to say. She has adhered with unihaken fidelity and fealty to the doctrine of the political freedom and equality ot all the States jn eyery sec tion ot the country. 8i tasted geographically in the North, the political action and status of Indiana have been peculiarly non sec tional. They have bean superbly national. Her position has been, and is yet, identical with that of the distinguished citizen whose name she presents as a candidate tor the first office in ths gift of ths Rspublic a name which is the synonym of national honor, national credit, purity and peace. We would no say one word in disparage ment of the gallant Democracy of New York. The election just closed, held as it was under the most adverse circumstances, shows conclusively that the great commer cial State and city ot the Union, ia unaltera bly opposed to Republican policies, Indiana and New York are two potential factors in the next presidential election, But contrast for a moment the political situation in the two States. The Demo cratic party in New York is divided. We eare not to discern the cause of the divia loo. The fact remains. The' Democracy "of New York is divided upon purely personal and local issues; this division involves, and fatally involves, ths name and fortune of gentleman in that State who have bsea heretofore . spoken ' of and recognized as prominent aspirants for the presidential nomination. The Democracy of the whole Union can not and ought not to hazard defeat by naming a candidate from a State in which the very act of nomination must renew and continue the unfortunate dissensions there prevailing. The loss of the electoral vote of New York would, in such a contingency, be a foregone conclusion. On the other hand, the Democratic party of Indiana is united, with the prestige of years ot unbroken success. We hsve here neither Tammany nor anti-Tammany. The party is strong, active, harmonloui, a unit in its principles, its purposes, its organization, and wholly one as to Its presidential candidate, who would be the chief executive, to use his own words, "not ot a solid South, or a solid North, but of a solid Union." Again, New York has virtually had the Democratic presidential candidates for 20 years. Indiana has more frequently' voted for a Democratic candidate for the presidency, and has given, in pro portion to her population, larger majorities for such candidates than any other State in the North. Indians has never had a candidate. 8 he now asks one. Is the re quest a reasonable one? Let her political action and record answer. It can hardly be necessary to restate the reasons, so often suggested, why a presidential candidate upon our sids should not be selected from the Smth. When we sav South, we mean south ot the old historic line of Mason and Dixon. We mean anypaitof ths country once embraced in ths area of what were known as the slave holding States. This line, it is true, is now only traditional, but it is not erasod; it is blurred and dimmed, but, in our judgment, indelible in this genera tion. 8 uoh a nomination would restore and brighten it The sslection of a candidate for the presidency from one ot the former slave-holding States would, in our opinion, cause the old hatreds and jealousies of the war and its antecedents to spring at ones into ne w life and vigor. It would arm them with fresh fury and venom. The contest would be wholly sectional; the result would be wholly so. It would be called a Northern victory; it would be Democratio defeat a surrender ot the cause of constitutional government to its enemies. At ths best, sectional feel ing and issues will enter largely into the next canvass. While we may not be able to prevent this evil, It were certainly very unwise, as it is wholly unnecsssary, to pur ! 3sely challe igi and deliberately provoke it That such a discrimination against public men 11 vine in the "South is unjust, we ad mit But who would have thought of such a nomination in 1868 or 1872? The feeling which creates and supports this discrimina tion nevertheless exists, and exists in undl minished strength and force, as than. To make a presidential nomination which shall ignore it is to court our destruction and to nlan our defeat In advance. The same reasons which forbade it then forbid it now. Besides all this, ws are very certain that

there is no' man in onr party in the North,

and we question whether there is any pnblie man ot the South, not a resident of the States which seceded from the Union, who hss had anything like the experience in public affairs that Mr. Hendricks has had. Becom ing prominent, by his abilities, at an early age, in the Legislature and the constitutional convention ot his State, he was, while yet quite young, chosen a member of the Lower House of Congress, from ths central or capital district of Indiana. At the close of his congressional term he was appointed commissioner of the general land office at Washington, and held that offios until near the end of that administration, in 1S61. In 1863 he was elected by the Legislature of Indiana a senator of the United States for the term ot six years, in the midst of the war. In the very acme of party rancor and asperity, this distinguished ' position was, by consent, awarded him, he having no opposition in his own party or the other. Shortly after the close of this senatorial term he was elected governor of Indiana in October, 1872, being the first Democratic governor chosen in a Northern Slate after the war. Before the expiration of his guber natorial term he was nominated not by his own request unanimously as a candidate for vice president, and was, without doubt, in November, 1876, elected to that office by a very large majority ot the votes of the people of the United States. It is true he never has entered upon the discharge of the duties of vice president 'Tis true, a spurious aspirant a certain nameless political foundling did, by a glaring fraud, creep into that high place, and is even now, in some kind ot helpless, pitiful manner, attempting to counterfeit the part and presence of a states man therein. Yet this base image of authority only makes the shameless usurpation more apparent It docs not detract anything from the character and standing of the true vice president The Democracy of the whole Union, in convention at St Louis, chose Mr. Hen dricks as their candidate for the second office in the nation, and as the successor of tbeir great leader in the East in case of survivorship. Time and the tide of events, without any action of his own, events beyond his power or that ot any other, either to foresee or to control, have given to Mr. Hendricks this survivorship. A manifest destiny, almost providential in its character, has appointed him to this succession, snd has indicated him in a way not to be misunder stood, hardly to be misinterpreted, as the candidate of the Dsmooratio party tor presi' dent in the ensuing campaign. In a long period of varied public service executive and legislative, both in behalf of the State and general Government, he has done no act he has written no line, he has rpoken no word, which needs either an apology or a defence. t In the 50,000 election precincts of ths Union, there is no man any whers who voted for him for vice president who may not earnestly support him for ths chief magis tracy. " -r ' " Aloof from faction, untonoheJ by cal umny, nntrammeied by local prejudices or section il traditions, his name and fame belong to the whole country, and history will write of him as among those statesmen who, while they have neither sought nor declined the presidency, have justly de served it .

Two of the greatest statesmen this country ever knew, Washington and Jefferson, posi tively refused a third term. Will Grant do this? It remains to be seen "On a indiscreet fool South can In a minute undo the lengthy labor of statesmen," said Senator Wade Hampton In his last Bayard speech, which was delivered at Abbeville, S. C the other day. Last year there were 17,600 eases of yellow fever and 6460 deaths in Memphis. This year tbe number or cases wss 1,608 and there wars 498 deaths. The official notice of the snd of

The Springfield Republican stys: Will he try it again? Afraid he will. The old mania bound to tire out Massachusetts; but the pres idential year will fix Uncle Benjamin next time. Colonel Tom Browne said, in a recent talk: "Three years ago Brlstow was my choice for president after Morton, and I voted for him on tbe last ballot But I am for Blaine this time." During the year ending November 1, the National bank circulation Increased 115,000,000, one half of wblch was in the last two months. The Increased demand, was almost entirely from the East. Senator McDonald Interviewed "Yon want to know my ticket?" "That is what I came in for," the reporter replied. "Well, it is Hendricks and Potter. That's the winning combination." AS Mr. Sherman declines to be a candidate for the Senate, unless he can get the nomina tion unanimously, be may be regarded as out of the list The chances still are that Garfield will bag the game. Several weeks ago the potters of East Liv erpool, O., sent to England for a large number of skilled workmen. About 40 arrived October 23, direct from Staffordshire, and it la said more will shortly follow. One of the sweetest consolat loos of the New York Star, on election day, nas the reflection "that tbe counting of the electoral votes cast in 1880 will be done by a Democratic Senate and House of Representatives." "I think I will strangle to death in my sleep some time. I can't get my breath many times, and the least cold I lake my lungs get filled," tho lata Senator Chandler is reported onee to have said to Governor Kellogg. The arrivals of immigrants at New York during last week aggregated 3,273, including 709 Sunday, of whom the City of Brussels, fro n Liverpool, brought 447; the State of Georgia, from Glasgow, 221, and the Weser, from Bremen, 38.

This was an increase of 16,644 bales over the previous year. Three large mills are now being erected, with the prospect that others will be added within the next six months. The exports from France to the United States for tbe quarter ending September w. 1879, were 11232,152, which is an increase of 82,537,778 over tbe corresponding quarter of 1878, and an Increase of 87,277,998 over tbe quarter ending June 80, 1878. Not only have the values Increased, but the number of invoices is alto much larger than heretofore. The total value of foreign exports from the port of Baltimore for the week ending with Thursday, November 6, was 11 ,813,753, against tl,834,24tf for the corresponding week last year. Aggregate exports from this port since January 1, 1879, 858,018,188, against 847,585,898 in 1878. Increase, 810,130,270, and as compared with the same period in 1877, the Increase is 821,379,857. A late cablegram from London says tha notwithstanding the apparent revival lndif ferent blanches of business and the various mechanical trades in England, far-sighted merchants are of the opinion that substantial recovery from the recent acuta depression is still remote. They say It could scare beely otherwise after tbe prolonged stagnation, the almost total failure of the harvests, and the largely curtailed commerce of the country.

Among the new dwelling houses that ark' being erected in New York are those of William H., Cornelias, and W. K. Vanderbllt, which are to cost 11,200,000 exclasive of land. The Kansas City Times says that if the Democracy can carry Indiana and New York, we have 188 electoral votes, and it only takes 185 to elect There are certainly two men. In our Judgment, npon whom that combination can be made successfully. "How would Hendricks and Potter do in 1880?" inquires the Washington Post Potter Is elected by less tban 100 majority. Seymour carried New York by 10,000 over Grant and Seymour can do it again. Seymour and Hendricks is the ticket to win in 1880.
