UNFORTUNATE.-Itisu unfortunate
for the Democratic party that it
cannot control the ruifians which
belong to it long enough to get into
power. Just when it needs public
confidence it looses it. Just when
the people are beginning to feel
that the party has reformed and
means well, and that the devil has
been cast out of it, the cloven foot
shows itself, and the old time ras-
cality come out in full bloom. Dem
ocracy has terrible load to stagger
under, and to add to its burdens 10y
increasing its power would be little
short of cruelty. When it succeeds
in civilizing Georgia and Texas it
may turn its attention to the nation.
Ii the rifle and knife prove effective
civllizing agencies in those states it
may pay to introduce these novel
instruments of political reform a
little further north. But we fear
the experiment will fail. Conver-
sion through fear is not very lasting
and the power thus gained is only
for a day. Democracy should issue
q proclamation to the faithful, urge
them to appear honest and law-abid-
ing citizens until the party is en-
throned at the National Capital. 1t
will be hard work for the faithful,
ia affect the disguise, but it may
pay ii kept up for score of years.

SCHOOL misunderstanding to
notice, the regular annual meeting OF
the Independent District was held at
the Court House last Monday. Two
hundred and fourteen votes were
polled-at least three times Is many
as were ever before cast at similar
election. Only one ticket for Direc-
tors was in the field, which received
the following vote:
For Directors for three years-H.
C. Carr, 212; J. L. Rowell, 211.
For Director for one year-J. ID.
Shearer, 30.
The contest of the day, SO far as
there was any, was upon the question
Of attempting to enforce legal collec-
ton against Mr.. Tuthill Of the amount
Of District funds stolen by burglars
from him while Treasurer, three years
ago last September, ~ more fully
explained in these columns = few
weeks ago. The result was one
hundred and twenty-nine votes
against such attempt to enforce col
lection and eighty-two in favor Of it.
This, we suppose, will be the end OF
that matter-the suit which was be-
gun for the purpose of keeping the
matter open until the popular feeling
should be elected, will be withdrawn,
whereupon the statute of limitations
win At once interpose, barring any
further proceeding.
