The County court System.

During Tho late campaign in this
State, tho Radical stump orators, and
the Radical papers, taking their cue
from Gov. Stevenson. left National
Issues out Of the question, and pitched
right and left into our present Con.
ttitutiOn. Ono who was not familiar
with the ways and doipgs Of the West
Virginia Radicals would have sup.
posed that oil manner Of evils were
nourishcd and protected by It to hear
them sum up the faults aud weakness.
es, they would suppose that the igno.
rance oftho State set in conclavo and
originated it, and then by provisions
contained in the Old Constitution,
made expressly for that purpose, dis.
francbised intelligence while they rati-
fed it.-Brt the theme that they SO
liked TO dwell upon tho sweet morscl
which they rolled under their tongues
was the County Court no language
could be found to express to the dear
people tue harm that that system was
doing them; it was corrupt it vas
ignorant; it vas expensive and it
was old fOggyish. These and other
reasons were urged, why tho people
should Dust from power tho Democrat.
10 party, and elect Radicals. All Of
our orators defended the Constitution,
and with it, the County Court System.
Our papers with few exceptions, done
the saplo.
And thus this question, without any
seeking upon the part Of tho Demo.
cratic party, become tho leading issue
in the canvass, BY this means the
people had au opportunity, after two
years Of trial to pass once again upon
tho acts Of their servants. What is
the result?
Why, tho Democratic party was
successful all over tho State, they have
elected Legislature almost ruani.
mOusly Democratic they have the
entire Congressional delegation. And
thus, by their vote in October last, did
the PEOPLE Of West Virginia Ngain rat
ify the Constitution mado by their
Statesmen, and after two years trial
approved tho acts Of that body, and
they did wisely.
We approve the County Court Sys.
TEN. When tho new Constitution was
placed before the people Of this State
for ratification, We confess wc did not
feel friendly toward THAT system,
But, after trial of two years. We arc
satisfied it is tho best system that could
DO devised for a State like ours. 1t
is the peoples Court; its members are
from the people, and before il oil can
como, present their grievances, and get
redress. 1t is economical and Just,
and if the people elect incompetent
men 1t is not tho fault Of the system
but Of the people.
incompetent, unjust, aud even per.
jufcd men, have been elected Judges
Of The Circuit Court in this State by
tho Radical party, yet none ever
thought of abOlishing tho system on
that account.
We hope our Legislature will let
well enough, alone /; leave our admir-.
able Constitution just as it is. The
men that framcd.it, had as much brains
and were as discerning as any man
that is member of the present Legis.
laturo, and more than that. the sover-
elgn people hay, twice approved it.
