We have always held to the doctrine
that every citizen owed his services to his
country, and was bound to accept official
position when called upon to do so without
any solicitation on his part. We believe,
moreover, that journalist can serve his
country full as well, if not better, in his
profession than in any official position, no
matter how high or low. Nothing, how
ever, debases journalism so much as to
have its conductors, whether principals or
subordinates, seeking after office and
basing their claims thereto on their sup
posed or real journalistic services. There
fore, while we do not fully sustain the
news of Stanley Il pullen, editor of the
Portland Press, as contained in his letter,
declining the republican nomination to the
Maine legislature, at the late elections they
so nearly accord with our own that we
cannot fail of giving them quasi endorse
ment by placing the substance thereof in
our editorial columns. He says; 81 have
long felt that office-holding and journalism
are Incompatible; that an editor who is a
candidate for, or an incumbent of, Office
would be suspected of conducting his paper
with reference to his personal political
ambition, and that however conscientiously
he might try to avoid it, lie would be really
somewhat influenced by such consideration.
This necessarily impairs the strength and
usefulness of his ntterances, and the value
of his paper as an exponent of party views
and interests.

\ Democratic Protest Against the
White Leaguers.

Ex-Gov. A. G. Brown of Mississippi,
''whose honest heart" the Jackson Clarion
says, "nevcr had pulsation which was
not for his state" has taken earnest ground
against the popular democratic movement
for the organization of white leagues. He
says "When this subject first came to
the surface was inclined to pooh pooh it.
1t seems to me absolutely absurd, in view
of all our surroundings, that we could for
moment entertain any such proposition.
Gentlemen in the state and out of it whose
judgment / felt bound 10 respect, embrace
and very earnestly advocate the theory.
Then felt it duty to review my own,
perhaps, hasty conclusion, and see if it
were not probable that | was wrong. The
result is very pointed and conclusive Goa
victlon on my own mind that the idea of
white leagues is all wrong, and must, if
carried out, end in the most disastrous con-
sequences to both races. However brought
about, the negro under the forms of the
constitution as 1t is written, has equal DO
litical and civil rights with the white man.
The.social question is another matter. and
that | would undertake to say no human
law ever has or ever can regulate. But TO
the point, shall we have white leagues, and,
If so, what then Z? 1t seems to me that we
shall, in retaliation, have black leagues,
Then what? The two races are brought face
to face. WILL in such contest, all the
whites stand on our side and all the blacks
on the other? Not bit of it, We have
painful experience that large number
of whites, from motives or reasons of their
own, will take sides with the blacks.
What has been once done, we have reason
to suppose, may be done again. 1t may be
all well enough, taking purely selfish
view OF the subject, for communities where
the whites predominant to get up white
leagues. But what becomes of communi-
ties when the black element prevails?
Does 1t take n man very deeply learned in
The laws OF human nature to understand
that Is the whites, when they are in the
majority, combine to take possession of
the government, the blacks, where they are
III majority, will combine for like pur-
pose This sort of combination points to
but one end, and that is war of races. In
n contest between the races 1t cannot be
doubtful who would come off conquerors.
But who wants such Il contest? There is
mutual dependence between the races
which, once recognized in good faith, must
lead TO happy results. But ignored, no
man, not endowed with supernatural gifts,
can pretend to tell the consequences. Ideas
crowd on my mind in this connection, but
feel admonished l must not trespass on
your patience. One idea, however, promi-
nently set forth by the white leagues feel
it a duty to combat, and that Is that the
whites have constantly held out the hand of
fellowship to the blacks In its entirety, !

LOUISIANA.

If the situation in New Orleans and
Louisiana was not SO serious, it would be
ludicrous if not ridiculous in the extreme.
When such "revolts" or revolutions" oc-
cur in Paris, they mean business and an
immediate change of government takes
place throughout the whole of France.
Whatever form of government obtains
power, even temporarily. in Paris, and the
people thereof give forced or voluntary
allegiance thereto, every province gives its
assent as fast as intelligence of the success
of the Paris movement can be carried to
them in one way or another For Paris is
France. The same seems to have been the
effect in Louisiana. AS soon as the Nc
Emery government had succeeded in their
revolutionary movement IN New Orleans,
had apparently firmly possessed themselves
of all the state governmental offices, the
county officers, in the interest Of McEnery,
at once took possession of their several
Offices, seemingly, without contest or pro-
test. 1t might be argued from this that
New Orleans is Louisiana But we hardly
think that this is correct deduction from
the facts. Neither do we account
for the course of the several and

The Heat ana the Corn.

many farmers have already cut and stacked

Iowa, and Minnesota will be very much
larger than in 1873, and we think 1t no ex-

price of their corn as they have lost on the

ity of the whites haye been sincere in their
professions, am quite ready to admit.
But that there has been at all times q
minority not willing to admit the negro's
clearly-defined and well-understood consti-
tutional rights, there can be no question.
1t Is the duty of the majority to make its
authority felt. The minority may be more
noisy, and therefore mischievous. but to
the majority belong the right to rule.
Whatever people may say, and however
popular assemblages may resolve, | have
an abiding confidence that the negro can
yet be made to understand that his interests
are identical with that of the southern
white man, and when he comes to under
