The Sheriff's Election.
Attorney-General Youmans, after
a careful study of the ques
tions involved, has authorized
the statement that "an elec
tion cannot be hold in Novem
ber to fill by anticipation, offices
now held by incumbents whose con
stitutional terms do not expire until
August, 1879. Under this con,
ntruction of the law neither the
sheriff nor the board of county
commissioners could be elected at
this general election."
Tae ELEOTION IN North Carolina
resulted in a victory for the Demo
crats, who will have a majority of
about ten in the Senate and thirty
or forty in the House over all other
parties. The majority would have
been greater, but for the existence
of certain individuals who preferred
themselves to the State and who
ran on bolting tickets in combina,
tion with Radicals. The Radicals,
as usual, showed superior tactics.
Wherever there was a Radical
majority in any county the party
stood firm and solid, and only
where party success was impossible
did they combine with bolting
Democrats. In spite of their
efforts and the demoralizing influ
once of Merrimon, it scoms assured
that Vance will be elected to the
United States Senate. The Demo
cratic ticket for the Supreme Court
had no opposition. Tie Congres
sional election will not be held
until November.
The Rational Party.
Memphis, Tennessee, has been
carried by a combination of Nation .
als and negroes, who defeated the
Democratic ticket. Of course the
negroes did seven-tenths of the
voting and received no offices, but
they hope to get pay in the future.
In Atlanta, Georgia, a National
club of twelve hundred members
has been formed. It has six hun
dred negroes in its ranks. From
this it will be seen that in the
formation at the South of any party
* outside of the Democratic ranks,
the old material of the Radical
party is relied upon for victory.
This should cause those who are
b contemplating a National organiza-.
tion to stop and think of the con
sequences. However pureo andl
sincere their intentions may be,
* they cannot foresee what will be
the ultimate results of the steps
they now propose to tak . Cailm
reflection and study will how them
that the existence of the National
II Democratic party is of importance
as vitas the welfare of the Demo
cratic party of the State, and that
the latter can flourish only in pro
I" portion as the former is successful.
What secures to us in South Caro-.
lina the advantages of home rule '*
The action of a Democratic majority
in the House at Washington, which
enacted that Federal troops shall
never agai.n be used to dragonnadlo
the South. Destroy Democratic
supremacy in Congress, and then a
Republican administration will be
at liberty to use every means to
defeat the will of the people in
1880 as it did in 1876. Who are
the apostles of Nationalism in the
North I Dennis Kearney, the
California Communist, who threat
ens to shoot leading capitalists and
steal the property of the rest ;
Brick Pomeroy, who has been on all
sides In politics, and a humbug in
all; Shupe, the editor of the
Advocate, who is now in the
clutches of the law, because he
failed to pay wages to a messenger
boy, and who was kicked out of the
fl Natiopal Convention at Syracuse,
1 0 .New York, as a hireling of John
~ V Sher,nan, ad a trickster generally ;
and last, but not least, Beast Butler,
who -Is to run on the National
ticket for gdgruor of Massachu,.
setts, anid who. 2oo*ns up as the
National endlate for-PreMident In
3880. That there ate many good
and honest men in'the National
party, we admit; but we cannot see
how good can come out of such
leaders. All signs point to a
presidential contest in 1880, when
the three candidates will be U. S.
Grant, B. F. Butler and a Demo
crat. In thinking of these things,
what true son of the South can
contemplate an alliance in national
politics with any but the good old
Democratic party that has existed
for seventy -ive years, and which,
though defeated often, has ever
renewed and battled for the prinoi"
ples of home rule and individual
rights? This is not the time to
form new parties.
