Excerpt from Article From the New Orleans Bee of August 20, '71, on the Political Situation To the Editor of the New Orleans Bee: Our many private discussions of political questions, in which we have widely differed, especially as to the proper policy for the Democratic party to adopt at the present time, will, I trust, authorize me to ask a public hearing of the views which I entertain through the columns of your influential and extensively read journal. Two facts, it seems to me, are apparent in the present political condition of the country. One is that the Republican party does not seem disposed to deal in the right spirit with the questions particularly affecting the South, and is not taking a course calculated to bring about a speedy reconciliation; nor does it show a disposition to effect those reforms which the people are demanding. This party seems to rely for success more upon its past record, than because it addresses itself in the right spirit to existing questions. It continues to contrast its popular record of the past with the unpopular record of its opponents, who still foolishly persist in remaining in the field, and it expects to maintain its ascendency by the usual appeals to the passions which unfortunately have survived the war, and by exciting the fears of the people of reactionary measures by the Democracy in case of their success. Their capital is also largely augmented by the stupid blundering of the Western Democracy upon the financial questions. The other fact is, that the party in power in many of the States, has been weakened by internal dissensions, by a general failure to meet public expectation, and by the corruption which overtakes all parties, and could be easily overthrown and its rule ended, if all the elements opposed to it could be united and rallied on some feasible plan of opposition in the next Presidential contest.
