r am! Ih-nufort is having a wholesome
effect i?i stirring up the Democrats of
oilier c lUii'ies to renewed efforts at com- i
pact and i fficicnt organization. Espc-i.
cial'y is this the cum; in Anderson; and <
in iliis connection the Anderson Intel- 1
I'tjt nri r very sensibly says :
' This prompt action is the forerunner J
of another successful I canvass duriugjj
the present year and should receive the >
licntty support of every Democrat in '
the County, and wc trust that ere Ions f
every Primary Club in the Connly will j
have met, reorganized and gone to work t
for victory. To perfect our organiza-1 e
tion at this time is the wisest policy. |'
fur now men are cool and in the fu ll
possession of their full judgment, and ,
where they join together to perfect the ' s
reform begun at this stage of the can- v
vass, they arc more apt to secure addi- a
lions from the opposite party than
tlicy could do after the canvass has'
been opened and the party iine closely 1 ?
Jrawn." i a
This i.s true, and it would be wcil for "
die sauie course to be pursued in every ir
county of the .State. There is another a
dement of success, however, which
lmuld not be overlooked, and which is ;
uliv as important ns organization, and '
hat is the nomination of' capable and
ifficicnt men as candidates. This is a,
ict only an important factor of success,! tii
>nt it i? an imperative duty which the tli
)-irty owes to the public, and which it 10
vi)l not be safe to neglect. Organiza- j
ion may elect incompetent men. as we j
ill know, but in that case success may tii
)c worse than defeat, for upon the party pi
vhich elects them will fall upon all the ?'
idium of the crimes, and blunders worse i
ban crimes, committed by feeble atid I ct
neompetcnt officers, either through in- ! h<
torance or th s influence of evil councilors,

Ma. Editor: 1 wish to propound at
i'w questions through the JOURNAL. ; p*
,nd hope some of your able corrcspon- j ?r
lents will answer them : tw
1. Is it right, for the honest Democ*j JJ
acy of the Sfa'c to he burdened with a ,h
ax to pay tlie fraudulent debt of the In,
;tute. which debt is in favor of capi'al-1 [f[
*ts North and South who have made tit
l-rtun^s out of the misfortunes of our;
ippresscd people? ca
2.-Is it just or expedient for the hon- <ic
st people of the State to be forced to :
iay for dieting the innumerable horde i ce
if thieves that infest the county jails, i},'
hereby offering a premium for evil- jjj
loing ? | co
3. Is Corbin's fee bill just and equiable
? ..It
4. Is the Radical law giving judg- ^
tionts for all sums under one hundred f.'|
lollars at the first court, and a right to t?
ell in twenty days, allowing the debtor'
io chance to redeem his property, h tti
norc wholesome law than tbo old law.1 pj
rhich allowed the debtor six months to
edeetn ? w"
