The Ring at Work.

To the Editor Of the Columbian THE
performances of the combined Radical
and sore-head Ring, particularly re-
ferred to in my last communication
came off at the April and October elec.
tions of the present year, and ought not
to pass unnoticed by any person who
desires to keep up with the current OF
local events, and to understand the
workings Of corrupt Ring.
At the April election, when Blooms
burg was to receive an organization for
the first time, by the choice of local Of
| flcers, it will be remembered that ELI
AS MENDENHALL, a very determined
and active Radical, was elected Presi-
dent of the Town Council, by majori-
ty of eleven votes over the Democratic
candidate. He was elected by treach-
erous votes given by sore-head mem
bers of the Ring, and holds his place at
this moment by virtue of the same
Though the number of nominal Demo
Gratis belonging to the Ring is but small
yet in close election district like
Bloomsburg, their votes may turn the
scale between parties on majority
vote. Fortunately the free vote applies
to the election of most of the Town Of
ficers, and there is therefore the less OPP
portunity for Ring manipulation of
elections, and for the trading and trea.

nees for membership in the Town Coun-
Gil were all elected. Treachery could
not defeat them under the plan of fair
and honest voting which was tried at
the April election for the first time. But
as the President of the Council was
elected separately, under the old plan
of majority voting, it was possible for
the nominal Democrats, who belong to
the Ring, to cheat and betray the Dem
ocratic party in the election of that Of
ficer.
1t may be here mentioned, that the

sweep all the town offices, to be chosen

the name of peoples ticket;" Ito
mislead the honest citizens y taking
good care however to secure Radical
control in the new council. The meet
ing to carry out this design was called
by notice printed in the Ring Organ
The Republican Newspaper-and the
"People's Ticket" put in nomination
by it, was composed so as to insure
such control, with CHARLES r. PAX
TON, Radical for President of the
Council, who declining to be used in
that fashion, his place was supplied by
the Ring selecting the present Radical
incumbent. Meantime, many good
Democrats who had been at first mis-.
lead by this movement, stood aloof,
and subsequently came in and support
ed the regular Democratic ticket, thus
preventing the predominance and abso'
lutte control Of the Ring over the Town
government for the present year.
So much for the first show of hands
by the Ring. A.

The South Carolina Election

From the official returns it appears
that the Republicans have carried
everything before them in South Caro-
lina-Governor, Lieutenant-G Govern or,
all four Congressman, and an over
Whelming majority in the Legislature
SCOTT, the Governor, is reelected by
39,53i majority, being almost double
tho majority by which President
GRANT carried the State in 1868. A. J..
KAMsI Err, negro, is elected Lieutenant
Governor; Jos. IL. RAINEY, negro, to
Congress in the First District r. G.
DELARGE, negro, in the Second II. b.
ELLIOTT, negro, in the Third and A.
l. WALLACE, white Republican, in the
Fourth. Eleven out of the thirty one
State Senator'S and eighty out of the
one hundred and twenty-four Repre-
sentatives, are negroes, and this, added
to negro Lieutenant Governor, negro
Secretary of State, negro Justice of the
Supreme Court, and three negro Con-
gressmen out of four, gives South Car

JUDGE GEORGE w. WOODWARD is
reported TO have left Luzerne county in
a fit of Indignation at his defeat as
Judge of the Courts of that county.
That Judge WOODWARD does well to be
angry is question; but certainly the
people Of Luzerne county have not COW
cred themselves with glory in electing
to that Office man in no way compar-
able to the candidate who was defeated.
Judge WOODWARD did we'll TO keep
aloof from the slums and stews, into
which his competitor is reported to
have descended, and where the MAORI

secured; and it should have been a
matter of pride in all the good citizens
to sustain gentleman who was thus
determined to keep the purity of his
eieetion above even the taiut of suspic
ion. Not having done so, theirs Is the
disgrace, and Judge WOODWARD has
the proud consciousness of having pre-
served not only his own personal dig.

high Office for which he was candidate,
In that pure atmosphere where Demo-
cratic leaders and speakers, and all
rig ht-minded men have placed it.
"What will it cost to bring this dis
trict in for me ?" asked Judge WooD-
WARDS competitor. "Five hundred
dollars" answered burly fellow at
the bar of the drinking saloon: ''Well )"

GOOD SENsE.-The great trouble
among American youth is the lack of
application and thoroughness in what
they undertake. Anything that cannot
be learned with superficial study, is
given the go'by for something less ted.
ious and irksome. Study and hard la.
Dor are looked at from wrong stand
points and as consequence, the clerk
ship ranks are full Of unemployed and
half-starved young men, and the pro.
fessions are overlooking with mediocre
ty, while good mechanics find plenty of
work at living prices. The evil spoken
OF is felt seriously. Those who work at
a trade do it in so loose and careless
manner that they are not competent to
do the work they promise TO do. Among
the loudest declaimers for the rights of
labor are men and women who can
claim no rights that belong to labor
well performed.
