John L. Love
0/5 ( ratings)
Excerpt:

But wrong does not die under a single stroke. It has a strange power of metamorphosis, i. E. Ability to change its form without losing its identity. The slave power, which everybody at the North imagined to be dead, re - appeared almost at Once as the Southern serf power, in consequence of legislation enacted in the then lately rebellious states by the Old slave masters. They had lost their slaves, to be sure, and the political power incident under the Constitution to such ownership, but they had not lost the po litical cunning and determination to create a similar power out of the social forces and material which lay in disorder about them.
