WINNSBORO, S. C. TUESDAY, DECEMBRR 10, 18781 I. MEANS DA I-I, EIToR. JNO. . REYNOLDS. ASSOCIATH EDITOn. IF, A3 SOM . contend, a\r ton has made such a fiilure as gover nor, he ought to be sent to the Senate at once to get him away. On tihe other hand it is urged that sending lii to the Senate vould be "'shelv ing",him. There are whole families In South Carolina that are willing to be shelved In that way. Tim!E Straightout Democrat, in a recent issue, says that Senator Gary and the Hion. J. 13. Campbell are the two boldest Democrats in South Caro lina, and that both have been badly treated. It intimates that the "in grates" who have been guilty of these wrongs should beware. This intiia tion might be construed into fore shadowving some sort of combination betweeni the gentlemen nameld, were It not known that tlWy are diametri cally opposed in polikics ; Mr. Camp bell's boast. being that he is the champion par excellencc of the "1ampton policy," while Senator Gary uttery repudiates it. The Tables Turned. Mr. Nordhofir's letter in another col n turns the tables completely on the I adical pharisees who have been crying fraud so vehemently, and it also places Mr. Haves in a most un pleasant predicamient. A week or two ago we publishied an extract from Mr. Nordhiof's cor.respon(lence as inl evidence how even a fair and just man had sufiered himself to be led astray by Radical howls. He expressel nothing bIt the greatest abhorrence of the "crimes" of the Democrats. But caln reflection has convinced him that while the Democrats are not blaneless, the Raicals have basely lied, and have exaggerated ihets and occurrences tenfold. A Few (liys ago he expressed a conviction that ille galities and frauds in the South were sporadie, and does not deny that more Demnocratts may have been intimidated by Federal deputies inl the North, than negroes bulldozed in the South. In the extract published to-day, Mr. Nordhoff shows that the ''onion skin" tickets were used by the Radicals in 1876, and that one man who claimed to have oarried Florida for Haves by using sveuty-four of these "little jokers" is now enjoying a place in the treasury department. The Democrats merely borrowed an old device, and in some cases may have used it just as it has been used in every State bet,re. The concluding laragraph, that "One man may steal a sheep while another shall be hanged for looking over the fenice,"' is a direct slap at IIaves andl will doubtless cause his Excellency to lose interest in the matter of' investigations of .ballot-box stuflhng. Th'le prodluction of' RIadical ''onion skins" and the wholesale acquittals of Democrats in the Federal courts for alleged intimidation and fraud, are surely showing up Radical ism in all its p)harisalcism and deviltry. A Question that Should Not be Re opened. The most. dlangerous rock in the course of the D)emocracy is the ques tion of the public debt,. About its p)ayment much honest difference of opinion exists. We have no patience with the extremists of either side, who dub41 thet)ir opplonents "'repuldia tors'' and ''bloated bond holders.'' It is just as criminal to repudiate a legal obligation as to endeavor to enforce one0 that is illegal. TPhe question of' the legality of' the dlebt of' South Carolina is a matter resting entirely w ith thme courts, and, until they decide, the people are at sea. And yet at * tempts are making to re-open the whole quest ion in the Legislatumre and to tear af'reshm the wounds of last, ses sloon, to diisomrb needlessly a compro mise thant enabled the Doemocraey to work with harmony in the last cam paign. We regret. to see that Senator GayadM.Mra have made inteperte peecebes. Such argu mlents (do 1o1or of goodl. Nobodly was ever won by them. The1 Legisla ture will be wise to lay the whole matter over for this session. If no0 betrreason cani be1 addutcd it is sulcetthat both IIouses have re pleOIJ are waiting to see if this reso lution will be carried into effet--a matter on which they are rallher skeptical, 1f the members desire fgain to represent their constitutent s they will be much more likely to accomplish their object by coming homne oni the 23d instant, than by wrangling inte'rmninably over a~ miatte'r that should for the p)resenit at least rest witjh the judiceial branch of the continue in the good way it has begun and come home. TU.ANING THE TABLES. A Democratic Infringement on a RO publican Invention- I The "Little Jo - kers" of Florida and South Carolina. (Aordi.qff's Letter to, lflm- ei York lerald.] WAsINC;TON, Deeetnber (I.-There is something refreshingly cool and impudent in the clamor which some0 of the Republican politicians are making over the use of the small onion skin tickets, called ''little jokers," in some of the South Carolina counties at the recent election. h'lle Southern Re publicans, who now cry out about these instrumlents of fraud, were the inventors of thei, and used them with great etect in the election of 1876. In fact, one of them, a Florida Republican, who now holds a place in the treasury department here, Is reported to have boasted that the seventy-four "little jokers" which he deposited In the ballot-box, of which he was the gua.tdian, carried the State for Hayes. o0 course a Republican fraud in 1876 does not justify a Democratic fraud in 1878; but when tile two tickets placed side by side below in fae simile are compared, it will be seen that the Republicans have 110 reason for the virtuous horror they are manifesting. Here are two "littfe jokers," the Repiublicaii of 1876 and the Democratic of 1878: IVorida Repubican, 181T. I'r1le stiil I Electors.--Fredi crick U. 1imiphries, Charles If. Pearce, Willtain I.

[H1ere fol;ows the county ticket.] For frauduleitly puttig seventy four of these Republican "little jokers" ill the ballot box in Florida in 1876 one oftte inspectors of election "had to leave the State," to Ilse his his own words-that is to say wits threatened with all indictment and trial for this fraiud; and lie accordingly fled and cieio to Vashiingtoll, Where 1he ob taiied an appointment in the treasury de prtme~t, which hu siiii hoids, or did until very recently.
