wINCHEsT Err,
SATURDAY, March 90, 1898.

We regret to observe that most Unfair
matory Hand5iH, signed IA Democratic Re.
publican designed to inSsme the minds of
the people by reviving former political dis
functions. and TO excite unreasonable prelud,-
ces and feelings against certain of tie candi-
da,es before the public, is now in circulation,
We had hoped, inasmuch as the election.
eerihg campaign had thus far smoothly pro-
gressed, that he friends OF The ,eral candi.
dates would continue to observe the same de.
corous conduct throughout, and be content to
Test the result solely upon their merits and
Qualifications. But we have been mistaken.
The war whoop has again been raised. and an
attempt made TO rekindle those animosities
wnch once unhapply existed ,-to array the
father against the son, and neighbor against
neigh1or, in political strife!
n We venture, however, to predict that the
ain of this writer viii be defeated. The peo-
pie know too we'll how 10 appreciate the happy
calm which has pervaded the political hori-
zon for the last eight or nine years, to
launch again into the ocean of political tur'
mol, and thereby revive those anirnosities
which formerly existed, and which were at
war with the best feelings ofthe human heart.
1t is utterly impossible that the people will
permit themselves thus TO be led astray BY
the Incorporate zeal OF angry politicians
In selecting those whom they wish to re,
present them they will take for their standard
the Characteristic talents;-the capacity tor
usefuness,of the candldates;--not the political
name by which the gentlemen have hitherto
been distinguished.
Our substantial interests, which unfortunate.
ly have been much neglected, imperiousy
require of us that we should select for our re.
representatives. those best qualified to promote
those Interests, whether they be Democrat
or Federslist. How ridiculous how ab.
surd he idea, thai, at this time Of day, when
every thing like political feeling, in our leg.
islative bodies, has become extinct, and when
every other consideration has merged into
schemes for che advancement of sur su6sta7.
tiaI interests, we should be called upnn to
make choice of his or that MAJ merely be,
csusehe is Federalist or Democrat. without
reference to hia talents OF fitness
Surely the People will resist ali attempts to
reduce them to the reme blind subserviency to
names, under whose banner we all, at one
time, unfortunately arrayed ourselves they
canuot,-they viii not be cheated into the be.
lief fhat i. would be unsafe to cunfide their
best interests into the hands of any of the
gentlemen whe have offered them.eIves for
their snffrages; they will, we are we'll s.su
red. exercise The important privilege as be-.
comes rational men, having one object in
view,-the HONOR.-ths WELFARE g.
INTEREST of our Country.
