THE ROBBER BARON, SULLEN AND
DISMAYED.
Withdraws to His Castle, and Runs
up the Black Flag of Eternal
War Against the South.
The following is an extract from
Henry Waterson’s speech at the res
cent Kentucky convention;
I wish that ike could look upon
the National campaign, which we
are abont to enter, with the earnest
but tranquil sensibilities of men who
feel that, no matter how it ends, the
gt ace of God and the glory of His
works shall be fnlfUlpd. It is, an-
happly otherwise. In a certain con
tingency, we san expect nothing but
disaster; the undoing of all the good
which twenty years of peace have
brought to a land once divided
against itself and drenched in frater¬
nal blood; and in no contingency can
we escape the disgrace of a ran
coroua party battle to be fought on
sectional lines, tearing away the
bandages applied by time to wonnds
that were well nigh healed and ex
posing all that is basest in our nature
and all that is weakest in oar system
once more to the scorn and derision
of mankind.
I had hoped for bettor things. I
had hoped that there was some virtue
left in the party of war which might
still be turned to the uses of a state
of peace. I had hoped that the lead
ers of this party of war—even if they
lacked the virtue—bad borrowed yet
a little wisdom from the school of ex
perience, to which the people sent
them four years ago, and that,
chastened by adversity and admon
ished by the defeat of their propb
ecies, they had accquired the ca
pacity to address themBelve to the
needs of the time and to deal with
the wants of the country.
I was induced to hope this, the
more trustfully because they have
been for years so loud and so con»
stant in their declaration that what
they really sought was a Bquare is
sue npon the tariff. I did not be
lieve, for my part, that they would
find this square issue to be what
they claimed for it; and so, often at
the cost of much uneasiness an i oc
caeionby of some reproach from my
party associates, I did my best to
give them their desire. Well at last
they have it; they have it square and
they have it fair, they have it plaiD,
in the message of tLe President and
they have it dressed in the measure
of the Ways and Means Committee,
and now what do we see?
First, let me tell you what we do
not Bee. We do not see any pionic
parties of gay and sleek Protection
ists dancing to the mosic of the
Fisher’s Hornpipe, and singing with
every bumper “Here’s to good old
bounty, drink it down.” We*do not
see any jolly Republicans, splitting
their sides with langbter as they
march under banners on which are
emblazoned such mirth provoking
inscriptions as “The War Taxes are
a National Blessing,” and “Death to
the Star eyed Goddess of Reform.”
We see no bonfires aronnd whose
blazing tarbarrels the benerolent,bnt
subsidized, capitalist, cate the
pigeon wing, hand in hand with the
poor operative, foi whose exclusive
benefit he lives, and to whom—since
ha does nothing more and can do
nothing 1 ms —he dedicates the tariff.
No, no, my conn try men, none of
these signs of promised exults
tion greet the eye as it surveys the
political horizon. But, iu room of
them, what do wo see? Wo see the
robber tariff driven once again bo
bind the mud heaps of obstruction,
thrown up, and so often successfully
thrown up, to keep out the waters of
reform. We see the robber
baron, 6ullen and dismayed, with
drawn to his castle, from whose tnr
rets only danger signals appear, male
iog an indifferent light, and no
warmth for the thousands of striking
and starving work people, whom he
is bravely protecting against the
panper labor of Europe by the help
of a patriotic audvaliant detachment
of /Pinkerton’s detectives. And,
finally, what do we see? Last of all,
and worst of all, that ends this dread
ful spectable of hyprocrisy and cant,
of corruption and rapacity, we see
the flag of the Republic hanled down
from its place above a great political
party, and, in its stead run up the
black flag of eternal war against the
South ! To such base use has come
the confident invitation of the Re
pnblican leaders to a statemanlike
discftsBion of economic problems;
and in proportion as it is an uner
ring sign of weakness and terror, is
it A vindication of the sagacity of
those Democrats who have stood so
faithfully and so steadily by the
cause of a revision and reduction of
the war taxes, and the return of our
customs system to the basis of Rev
enne, “exclusively for public pur
l )0 ® es-
I repeat what I said in the outset,
that I regret, most sincerely regret,
this substitution of the old section
al issue, drawing all its substance
from the grave, for the living issue
of Revenue Reform presented by the
Democratic party. Bat. since we
can not evade, or ignore it, let ns
meet it, and meet it like men. Let
us stand npon our rights as freemen,
onr rights ns citizens, our rights as
equals in the Union, and, bolding
those rights as our commission, let
us go to the good people of the
North, ovu brothers, and not our
masters, and appeal to their sense of
justice and fraternitly, to save us,
and themselves, from the bellowing
followers of Bellona who will bo con
tent with no'hirg short of our sub¬
jugation or our ruin.
