Minority Rule
Ibe Washington I'ori sfieaking on
the subject of minority rule and the
claims of the Republican Jarty in con
nection with this principle of free gov
ernment remarks: "A* a minority
ruler the Republican party iu the
i United Nates baa no in any
country that has a rrpnwvitative gov
ernment. It came into power as a
1 minority, and a* n minority it has
ruled during the greater |>art of its
period of ascendency. I>-aving out
Jof the record the war and reconstruc
tion i rax and coining dowu to the au
tumn of 1.574, nearly ten years after
the war we find the country
rising up and electing a Democratic
House by an overwhelming majority
l Yet for four years thereafter we find
the Democratic majority of the people
as tepresented by the House, thwarted
by a Senate that was held in the Re
! publican grip by the vote* of adven
turers and desperadoes from the North,
falsely claiming to represent Southern
state*; men who had no l<>eml habita
tion or name in the States for which
they were voted by Morton t Uo.
Here was minority rule in iu most in
solent and exas|>erating shape, as hard
to be born aa it would hare been for
the Republicans to have endured
Democratic ascendency based on the
votes of surh Southern men as Uhal
i mers. Cash and Mabone, entered on
j the rolls as Senators from Vermont.
MassachusetU and Rhode Island.
Rut one hy one the non-resident
Southern Senators passed out of the
Senate into oblivion or the penitentia
ry—we forget which—and in 1*76-77
a Congress, Democratic in both Houses,
was elected. At the same time the
people elected a Democratic Frtwidenf
and Vice-Preaident, thus decreeing the
transfer of the Government to the
Democratic party. Yet this decree
was annulled by a revolutionary mi
nority who boldly aet aside the Presi
dential election and installed in the
Excutive office the man who had
been defeated at the polls. For four
yean the Democratic 'majority was
thwarted by this infamous crime and
the minority continued to rule.
There has been no Congressional
election ffir seventeen years, and there
have been few State elcctious of any
kind in that time, in which the power
and prestige of the Federal machine
have not beeu employed to prevent ab
hornet vc *rt of the |ieople. There
has not been a day since the war when
the Republican party would have
consented to a fair test of the strength
of parties, The vast mechanism de

TitE story comes from Washington
that Attorney General Hrewster, has
advanced his stepson to a comfortable
office in Washington by the reward of
a competent incumbent, a veteran of
; two wars, whose only offense was that
he failed to respond to Hubbies assess
ment circular. The Attorney General's
official record both iu the star route

countenance to this kind of proacrip
tion of a poor government employe is
not calculated to add brightness to it.
Go*. Bi.tram as, of Kentucky, i* the
right sort of governor. He sees thai
the law is respected by mobs. A Ken
tucky mob was determined to take two
men, charged with murder, out of the
hands of the officers of the law wbila
they were being taben to another
county for trial. The governor sent the
state troops to aid the l*w officer*. The
mob came out in a boat to attack them
as they passed down the Ohio river in a
steamer. The officers of the law wete
fired upon and they returned Ibe fire,
wounding and killing some of those
who assailed them and others in tha
crowd or those who had assembled lo
witness the conflict, if not lo aid in it.
Peaceable citisens ought not to have
been in the vicinity of the danger, and
their suffering, though unfortunate, was
by their own fault.
We are delighted to note this one
case where the executive of a staia has
