The Delegate Elections.

It will he seen by notice in to-dav's
paper that the Democratic Executive
Committee, through its Chairman. Mr..
\. Horne, has fixed upon Saturday.
the Dist day of the present month. as
the time for holding the delegate clcc-
tions-thc County Convention 20 meet
at the Court House on the following
Monday. June 23d.
1--WE thought that anVthingwo could
say would have the effect of inducing
Democrats in the different election
districts to take more active interest
III the election of delegates than they
have been in the habit of doing here
tOfore, we would undertake the task.
It is well known. fact that in many of
the districts in the county the election of
delegates has frequently been regarded
with perfect Indifference. and permit
ted to go almost BY default. The OBJ
Ject OF every Democrat ought to be to
procure the nomination of a comDctcnt
and popular ticket, and there is but
one possible way to bring about that
result, and that is for Democrats to at
tend the delegate elections and send
men of Intelligence, Judgment and dis
cretion to represent them in the Coun.
ty Convention. If mdcserving and
unpopular men should happen to bc
nominated, the fault will be with those
Democratic voters who remain away
from the polls and not with the sue
ceSsful candidates.
a Democrat who fails to attend til,
delegate election has 10 right whateycI
TO complain Of the ticket put IN norni
nation by the County Convention
lhe opportunity WAS given him t
speaH st the proper time, but his mOutl
was sealed, and he has no excuse FOL
playing the part of a disor@anizer after
the ticket has been made. We trust
therefore that the Democrats Of eyer,
district in the county will pay sr.ocia
attention to tie approaching ,IeIco,t.
elections, aDd that they will send fbei
best and aost trusted men to the Conn
ty Convention This precaution viii
insure the nomination and election o
q good ticket, but if it is neglected
then dissatisfaction, resulting in pos
s!b!c defeat, may follow.

WE amrec with the JohnstOwn TTi-
I,.oe when it saws that the failure of
the Supreme Court at Harrisburg to
dispose OF the writ Of quo warranto
against .!udge Potts is much to lie re-
GREETED. In the case Of Iiite vs.. Swauk
tie Court, in its opinion delivered by
Judge AgneW last July, said that the
Judges of the District Court did not
hold lawful commissions If this was
sound law then, we are not aware that
anything has occurred since which
would inyaii0atC or change it, and the
conclusion would seem to bc irreslst-
ibIc. that any official act Of that Court
row would, in legal phrase, lie corarl
non jadice. Indeed il may be safely
assumed that the people within the
limits Of the District Court WHO have,
or are likely to have, controversies be
fore it, would prefer having the qUes-
tion of its legality definitely settled be
fore submitting their cases to the de
cioion Of tribunal Of doubtful author

TIE New York tS1u3 ascertains that
the trial of Honest John Patterson, of
Pennsylvania, United States Senator
from South Carolina, charged with
hribing members Of the legislature of
the latter State to vote for him. was
to have taken place in Richland cOUn-
ty, ). c., last month, but although
troops Of Witnesses are said to have
been in attendance the case was not
brought up. This is the way in which
the Juniata county statesman escaped
the mcshcs Of the law: \ list of grand
jurors for RichIand county, Of a more
respectable class than usual since re-
construction, was drawn Ill January.
but either accidentally or otherwise
the Jury Commissioners drew them
several days before the time directed
10y law. The counsel Of Honest John
was about to take advantage of this
irrcgularity, and before a single bill Of
Indictment could be handed out chal-
lcngcd the entire array of jurors, and
succeeded in having all their bills
quashcd. The law Of South Carolina
provides that grand jurors shall serve
for one year, and until new jury shall
have been empanclled, 50 that those
drawn the preceding year ought to
have been summoned to exercise their
functions III the place Of those who
had been improperly drawn. But this
did not suit the views of Honest John,
and tf2 County Solicitor being in ac-
cord with him. no effort was made to
no in i.hl
county goes without Grand Jury this
year, and Patterson goes without q
trial, which is very fortunate for Hon
est John, however it may be for his
constituents.
