Southern democrats privately de-| nounced it and predicted that the hopes of the republican party for al “white republican vote” had been ab- solutely dashed to the ground. Re- jublicans commended the utterance as Lincolnesque. They called it a courageous speech, delivered, as it Wwas, in the heart of the south itself. Aspects Are Interesting.
