EDITOR JOURNAL 1t is evident thai
the great Democratic party is bursted
one wing of the party styling themselves
the Administration party the other
wing have assumed the sobriquet of Mud.
sill, or popular sovereignty Democrat
The chivalry Democracy is COM
posed Of inveterate office seekers,
wire-pullers, bummers and blowers, who
have heretofore managed to lead and
nose around the bone and sinew Of the
Democratic party ever since this State
came into existence. 1t is natural for
us all to ask, what has this most glo-
rious of all the States of the Union ac-
com olished under the administration of
this most potent chivalry partyl She
has won proverbial name of being
governed by unprincipled men-men
who could be bought and sold like stocks
the highest bidder always taking the
prize; she has accumulated mountain
of indebtedness that will take years of
adroit fnanciering to liquidate ayoung
State sprirsing into existence. bursting
with resources, yet crippled to the back
bone by pack of hungry, thieving
office-holders who have no ends to ac-
complish but selfish ones; whose only
anxiety is to secure all they can out of
the office spoils. How long shall these
things last Cannot those awful leak
ages of the treasury be stopped? Is
there to be no end of this rule of ruin
Lei us have change-a reform--any-
thing if it is but an experiment, hoping
that it viii be an improven ent upon the
past.
We may obtain change by sup
porting the Mud-sill candidates they
promise us reform. l hope they will
give it to us. One thing is certain, their
figure-head does not suit my taste, but
as there are only two tickets in the field,
| am satisfied of the two evils the SOW
ereigns will choose the least. do not
think that either party can boast much
of their nominations from this township.
There is one nominee-J. B. War6eld,
who has done a little-very little service
for his country in the last Legislature.
He seeks to be reelected, in order that
he may go back and say to his fellow
survivors that he has been endorsed by
his constituents. He will be endorsed
with vengeance, if straws are any in
dication of strong current. / will ven-
ture the assertion that the voters of this
ridge will give him an Irish hoist and
sit him down a peg lower than ever.
His nigger bill-his bill for taxing the
profession and licensing quacks = the
object with which he got up those bills
his endorsement of the Administration,
and few othef abortive attempts at no.
toriety. have secured for him laurels
which are not to be worn by pigmies. If
reports are correct land what everybody
says must be true) he has particular
liking for the colorcd population, and is
guilty of having once imported niger
to this country. but the niger being the
smartest man of the two, dissolved con-
nection with him; hence the origin of
the niger bill. By gentlemen of his own
profession he is denounced as quack
hence the origin of his bill to tax and
license doctors, He is a man of i'm
mense aspirations, hoping to assume
some position Of greatness in the future;
hence the reason of the endorsement of
the acts Of the Administration. But
here / will leave him, without further
comment. believing that the voters of
this county will do him justice at the
coming election.
