before he (iispLived the keys.

Open the door for us, if ymi please."
Gleason saw that pleading would
avail him naught. There was stern
determination in the robber's tone,
death in the depth of his black eyes.
He had often read of such burglar
ies ; how cashiers were made to open
the safe of their own banks, until
throw thousands at the feet of the!
robbers. He had never dreamed
that such an event would happen in j

he would oc compelled to assist in
robbing the patronizing public.
lint he was at the mercy of the
villains, and his life was in startling
jeopardy. He came forward with
pale face, and stooped before the
safes.

the men. "You know the locks like

allowed to pass through. Now, it
has been found that a slight, oscil
lating motion of the. water in the
tanks will gie uniformity to the di
rection in which the crystals shoot
from the iron walls. The sway of
the water determines the direction
in which they dart out, and causes
them to present a smooth and even
surface to the play of light upon

this stirring is effected by bars of
wood, which gently sway to and fro

liecausc the popular vote will not be
cast freely nor counted fairly. The
only way the Democratic party can
succeed is by obtaining the l-'IS clei
toral votes of "the South" in the
usual Southern way, and by picking
up -ii votes in tlie Aortn. nemo -
cratic success, therefore, is the sue-
cess ol "the South, and that tact is
the most important in the canvass.

sult Democratic, not onlv because it

out oewiusi.- it l.- icsl in lilll tiling
by their right names. The election
of Hancock would be the control of
the government by "the South." Is
it desirable that "the South" should
control the government? That is not
a question of Ilepubliean choosing.
It is raised by tlie facts of the case.
If to state the facts and ask the
question is to show' hate, and to
shake the bloody shirt, and to be
sectional, we are certainly and glad
ly guih v of all these offenses. Since
the question whether "the South"
shall con troll the government is un
avoidable and paramount, we shall
consider it. and we naturally ask
what "the South" means, How can
we estimate probable action except
by experience? The Democratic
party is rigorously and unscrupu
lously tcsiiug the Republican party
by its record. lint when the Ih pul.
licans resort. "Very well, since you
wishtocontr.il, what are your cre
dentials?" The Democrats burst
into a whining chorus, "Oh. by -gout s
must be by-gones : don't bu' section
al; don't shake the bloody shirt;
don't talk about liat money, or the
extra session, or Garcelon, or the al
liance of Northern slums and South
ern bulldozing and tissue-ballot stuf
fing ; don't fan the tires of hate, but
let us be brethren, and dwell in am
ity." In oilier words, thev insist
that the Republican parts' siiall be
tried by their deeds,
cratic parts- by its
id the I 'emo-
promiscs. To
ask to see the credentials of the par
ty that would control the govern
ment is to pre;e !i the gospd of
hate, and to thrive by section:)! pre
judice. This is nonsense which deceives
nobody. Since Democratic success
in lssil means Southern domination
as plainly as Republican success in
1 -Slit 'meant Northern supremacy, the
relevant inquiry is whether th ob
jects w hich good citizens desire sviil
be attained more probably under
Southern control. That question
can be answered intelligibly only by
inquiring what "the South" means.
It cannot be answered by not asking.
If a man seeks to be trusted with a
ship, the owner w ill certainly inquire
who he is and svliat he has done.
If the traditions and principles and
spirit and tendency and acts of "the
South" have been such as to promise
sounder financial policy, surer cor
rection of the corruption of patron
age, wiser taxation, greater security
of equal rights, diminution of sec
tional feeling, and vigorous sutipres-
lull
ot lraud and violence at the
polls than are probable under Re
publican ascendency, then "the
South'' may be safely called to ad
minister the government, but not
othersvise. How is this to be ascer
tained but by inquiry? And svhatis
more absurd than to call such in
quiry preaching hate and shaking
the bloody shirt? If anybody suji
poses that a general election can take
place in this country while a "solid
South" continues, svithout reference
to the war and t political and na
tional history, he is strangely mis
taken. Sectional polities are dan
gerous politics. Our osvn cannot be
normal and sound so long as then?
is a "solid South." Why is it solid?
Why does it not feel the currents and
influences that divide the country
elsesvhere? As the little "Half hour"'
book, y'epohVi7;t or Daancmi? of
svhich sve spoke last week, truly
says, the South is solid cither for a
sectional purpose or lu cause of re
sentment. It is made solid not by
conviction, but by coercion ami
cheating. In three of the Southern
States at least there are more colored
than ss bite citizens. That the color
ed citizens are Democrats the ma
rines or .ludteus Apclles may believe.
That tiiere votes arc largely bought
is not alleged. That they are bull
dozed is known. It svas not all ne
cessary for Mr. Randolph Tucker to
tell us hosv the South is made solid.
It is "familiar knowledge." Now
the lact that tlie South is solid is no
reason for supposing that the South -
crn-IIancixk administration would
secure the onjccis isnicn ss e nas e
mentioned more certainly t'nan a
