WILMINGTON, DBL.
Wednesday Afternoon, August a.


In reference to the small vote at the Democrat
ic nomination on Saturday the Gdzttt goes back
to 1869. and shows that the vote Of that party,in
choosing candidate for Mayor, was then still
smaller That has very little to do with the
question. What ought to be explained is this ;
On June Sth, at the Democratic nomination for
Sheriff, 2432 votes were polled on August 10th,
at the Democratic nomination for Mayor, only
1900 wore cast. Now the latter nomination was
very earnestly contested Messrs. Bright and
Simms we're both urged with great spirit and
warmth Yet 1872 voters did not come out, WHO
were out, in June What is the explanation
Certainly, it looks reasonable that either those
732 were fraudulent, in June, or else that they
have been disguised with their party by the
Baltimore bargain.
The fact is that the Republican vote, at their
nomination election, was fairly and honestly in
creased by hundreds of patriotic voters who
heretofore have acted with the Democratic par
~, but who intend this year at least, to support
the Republican candidates. There is no doubt
of this. There was, Of COURSE some irregular
voting, as usual, but it was only small per
centage. Next Saturday, the vote poied will be
comparatively mall-falling OH, 40 doubt, sew
oral hundreds 49, because busy people have not
time to be attending TO 20 many elections, hut
the poll on the previous occasion was compare
lively little over far showing. We say, again.

OUR ncighbor of the Democrat corrects
oar mistake in regard to the price of fox
scalps, and says that only 81 so are allow
ed for each fox. AS there were over $500
expended last year for scalps, we had de-
sire to be somewhat easy on the Ring, and
placed the number as low as possible, but
since our neighbor insists upon doubling the
number of foxes killed, which according to
his statement would De in the neighborhood
OF six hundred, there is no doubt that the
taxpayers will think the organ of the Ring
IS exaggcrating in regard to the number.
and that there are other matters conceal
ed behind this heavy bale Of fox scalps.
None believe that the aggregate number Of
foxes for the last ten years reached that
amount. Our neighbor does not exhibit
an extraordinary amount Of shrcwdncss in
thus exposing the Ring by stating that the
amount was attributable TO the enormous
number Of foxes captured, instead of the
high prices paid for scalps. Jakey it will
not do; the Ring will certainly exrel you
ityou thus continue to blunGcr in their de-
fence.

day last, made clean sweep in that
State, eiecting their Governor and State
ticket by an increased majority over last
year, and making gains in the Legislature.

dental campaign. Sore heads and demo-

The state Convention.

On Wednesday next the delegates cho-
sen TO represent the Republican party in
State Convention will perform the duty of
selecting candidate for the responsible Of
flee of Governor AS usual, number of
candidates will be presented from various
sections of the State, the names of Packer,
JDrdan, Hsrtranft, Coleman, Ketcbum and
White being now the most conspicuous.
We have long since expressed our senti-
ments, and have thus far seen no rcason to
change them. We remain fcrvently at
tached to the great political organization
that saved the National Union from de-
struction amid The flames Of civil war, and
restored peace and order in the South. We
stand by that party that has been true to
protection, and done so much for our na-
tonal industries. We can see no good
likely to accrue from restoring to power
those who sought TO abuse SO grossly the
trust once reposcd in them by the nation,
hence we expect to sustain the Republican
cause in the ensuing canvass, both State
and National, because it commcnds itself
to our Judgment as we think it should to
every friend Of freedom and enlightened
progress. For this reason we feel anxious
that the State Convention should place in
nomination good man for Governor One
who has well disciplined mind-of high
moral worth-independen in action and
thought, and who, if elected, would be ho-
nest and upright. Our first choice for this
high office is the Hon. Jno. j. Packer. a
gentleman we know has the requisite quail
tications, and who we believe stands pre-
eminent as The man for the emergency. lie
has been an active and influential man in
our Legislative halls as well as in the Ma
tional Councils, and whose character has
always been without reproach. There is
nothing he can be called upon to explain
away, nothing to deny, to qualify or dis
prove. We know him to be 4 business
man OF the highest capacity, Of sound ,judg-
ment and sterling integrity, qualifications
which commend him as pre-eminently the
man for the office. We trust that the State
Convention will give due weight to consid-
erations like these, as the name of such a
man on the Republican ticket, would show
the people Of the State that real merit and
unimpeachable worth are appreciated and
recognized by the Republican party.

TIE act submitting to the voters Of each
county the question whether licenses for
the sale of liquor shall lie granted or not,
will be found on our first page. The act is
said to be not exactly what the friends of
Temperance desired. We think that moth
ing will be 50 effective in roofing out ex-
cessiye drinking Of bad and other liquors,
and the destruction of so many valuable
lives as the Introduction of our native
wines, which before many years will, we
trust, take the place of the more mwhole-
some and poisonous liquors of the present

THE AUDITORS Report will appear in our
next issue free of charge to the county.
We have been debarred from laying it be-
fore our readers this week through the
agent Of the Ring, the Democrat. That
paper docs the county publishing for
compensation. and its editor receiving
the copy from the hands of the county
officers first, fayors few of his favo-
rites with copy in order that all thus IA
vorcd may precede us in IFS publication,
exhibiting, in this way considerable Of
Democratic spleen. Although we have al
ways granted, with pleasure, similar
flyors to our neighbor, he forgets that
feeling Of reciprocity due from one ncighbor
to another. Perhaps our neighbor is so
completely taken up in the defence of the
foxy transactions of the Ring that he for
gets to show that courtesy towards his
neighbor which n kind feeling would
prompt, and an exchange of favors would
require.
We are informed that the editor of the
Democratic Guard has also been served in
the same manner. We presume this was
done through feeling not entirely dsnter-
estcd.
Our neighbor ofthe Gazette has been more
fortunate, having been favored with the
loan of the type composing the Auditors
Report from the Ring Organ for the use ol
his columns.

THE editor of the H'dtSontocn Record, in
order to disguise the fact that he is con-
nected with the Court House Ring, asks us
to give the names of the parties composing
the Ring. If the editor will refer TO his
agreement connected with the Deputy She
riffs office, several years ago, and consider
how and from whom he got the three hun
dred dollars to run as n candidate for
the Registers Office, he will very readily
see who composes the Ring. We rather
mistrust that John is desirous of getting in
to the scalping business, and is adopting
this mode of gaining the favor of the Ring
again. AS TO the improvement .nade after
last election, take a squint at our courts
now, John, and you will find all your
friends in the coal region have become
peaceable citizens; particularly those who
were paid to do little job at Mt. Carmel to
secure thevote Of that district, when your op-
ponent secured them by paying little high
er price. We believe, John, that your
friends will yet be redeemed, and become
honest men. What is your opinion John !?

The strongest argument that can be used
in favor of continuing the present ad-
ministration in power is the rapid reduc-
ton OF the public debt. 1t is a dollar and
cent argument and cannot be misunder-
stood by the people. The monthly state
ment OF the Secretary Of tie Treasury for
the month OF March, shows a reduction of
the debt of SO, 4sl ,96S64, and total re-
duetion since Grant was insugurated in
1869 TO March lst, 1872, period Of three
years, Of nearly THREE HUNDRED millions.
No arguments against Grants re-nomina-
tion and reelection is strong enough to ov-
ercome this knock-down dollar and cent ar
eament.
