KOT A QUESTION OP PARTY.
Brave and True Words from a North
ern Clergyman.
To the Editor of the World,
Sir: "I hate the very name of party,"'
Senator Bayard-is reported as Baying, "in
connection with such an emergency as uow
apparently confronts the American peo
ple,:VI Bhould ask or seek nothing to
day from any man. either as a Democrat
or as a Republican, bnt irimnlv trv tn ocn-
to him by a sense of his dutv as a citizen
to the constitution .and laws of his coun
try.
Of all the utterances hv nnr nrominr lit
public men in the nresent nnaxamnled i
crisis this Bentiment of Senator Bayard !
seems to me to have the trnnst rinir nf the
olden time. It is just such a sneech as I
might suppose would have proceeded from
Adams or Clay or Webster had such a plot
as is now going on in Louisiana been possi-
dio in meir aay. Henry Ulay once said.
1 had rather be richt than Kn
and Daniel Webster, one of the most cour
ageous men, when criticised for his pacific
and statesmanlike course in 1851, tld his
hearers in his great speech at Buffalo in
that year he had no great opinion of that
iberty which goes over the restrains of
aw or of the constitution. "I hold the
constitution of the United States to be the
bulwark the only bulwark of our liber
ties, and our national chart."
I believe, further, that when we get the
tonest, sober sentiment of the ReDublican
party (which is grossly misrenresented bv
the New York Times and the New
York Tribune) we shall find them
re echoing this sentiment of Mr. Bayard.
It is not a party question. It is a question
which touches the liberties of every one of
us. The north is suffering to this dav for
her indifference to the outrage in Louisi
ana in 1874. and for not then taking meas
ures to prevent the recurrence ot military
tampering with the ballot box, which, in
the not too strong language of Prof. G. W.
Sumner, seeius likely "to put our institu
tions to a test compared with which the
war was insignificant one which will de
mand that we gather all our manhood and
patriotism, and all our traditions of civil
liberty and self-government,"
It is in the power of the thinking men
of the Republican party, by a prompt, en
ergetic, courageous expression of opinion,
and ot their intention not to make this a
party question, to avert evils too terrible
to contemplate. Truly yours.
