There is bolt from the regular Republi
can nomination Of the county ticket ir
Wake county, North Carolina, which has
spread its influence TO greater or less ex
tent throughout the entire State, and may
insure partial Democratic successes In some
insignificant localities. No doubt the mo
tIves which prompted the bolt were o.
such character as to satisfy the politica
consciences Of the persons directly inter
ested, and may have also attracted soDs
sympathy from disinterested parties. Of
this aspect of the case we have nothing Il
say, and merely refer to the matter for the
purpose of observing that the practice Of
boiling is to be avoided under any circum
stances except In the ranks of our enemies.
In South Carolina, when Reuben Tomlin
son ran for Governor against Frank Moses,
there was q nearer approach to justification
of holt than has ever before or since
occurred within the history of the
party. The people had been misled,
had been robbed, and were again to
be deceived by q ring Of unPTnci
pled rasoaIs, and the effort TO reform
the party within the convention failed be.
cause the ring maintained its supremacy.
Under these circumstances the late Cover.
nor Orr, ex-senator Sawyer, and other hon.
est leaders we're induced to join in making
independent nominations. They did not 20
out Of the party to do this, however, and,
so far as they could, preserved their party
allegiance In North Carolina we find no
parallel, no sufficient excuse, for q similar
movement All the damage that has been
done TO the credit and material interests of
the State has been the result of Democratic
Legislation, and the Democratic party is
alone responsible. In the isolated cases
where subordinate officials the Republican
faith have misbehaved and rendered them
selves liable to punishment for violations of
the law, they have generally been held to
strict account. Wherever and whenever
they have not thus been held 10 account, it
has been the fault of the people at large, in
Guiding both Republicans AMI Democrats
But it seems that the Wake county boilers
have refused all offers to compromise that
have been made by the regulars, and have
consequently proved themselves twice re-
creant to their duties as partisans. We have
assurances, however, that the success Of the
State and Congressional tickets will not be
imperiled by this unfortunate dissension,
and it is to be hoped that the experience of
this campaign will serve to make the party
more careful and more heedful Of the gene
raj as well as special interests in making fu-
ture nominations.

DEMOCRATIC LAWLEsgyEss


1t is curious and significant fact that in
nearly all the States where the Democratic
party is in power, the administration of Jus.
tice is wesk, inefficient, and corrupt; that
crime and disorder prevail 10 an alarming
extent. Missouri and Texas perhaps afford
the two most strongest and most marked H.
Illustrations of the truth of this proposition.
The condition of society in the latter State
is something horrible, if we may believe the
local journals, which are by no means given
to sensation, nArrsting murders, lynching,
rObberies, and other outrsges with an easy
indifference, which, if they were 10 read
them, would sstcnish the inhabitants OF
older and more stable Commonwealth
Coke, the Governor, who headed what was
called the gentleman's ticket, was found a
few weeks ago in house Of il-reputs, and
strange to say, is defended by large num-
Der of the Democratic press upon the ground
that after all thsre was nothing very wrong
In his presence there; that he went out Of
mere curiosity.
In Missouri an execution which took place
there short time ago is referred to as the

crime that has taken place since Governor
Woodson was inaugurated. 1t is hardly
matter Of surprise that in a State so remote
as Texas, and in g community which Is so
far removed from all elvilizing and human
izing influences, the punishment Of crime
should not be as swift as in sections which
have been longer settled, more thichy pop
ulated, and of far less extent but that Mis-
souri, should be similarly afflicted and cursed
is certainly incomprshensible, and cannot
be set down to anything except weak or
corrupt administration. Missouri boasts
that she is the centre Of the continent, the
heart of American civilization. enterprise
and endeavor, which, in very few years
at the ft1rthest, Is to control the continent
and sway the destinies of the Union.
And vet, in an article printed
this week in one of her leading journals we
find the following complaint against the in
efficiency of those in authority: ITO pro-
"teot society we have instituted and at great
"cost maintain governments, local and State,
land upon the efficiency and fidelity Of
those governments, in the enforcement of
"the full penalties of the law upon evil
"doers, we rely mainly for protection Of
"life and property. The trouble in Mis-
"souri is that the central government, which
"alone has the power to queIl any consid-
"erable disturbance, and which, by its ex-
"ample, affects the conduct Of all local
authorities, has proved utterly unfaithful
land incompetent. 1t is about time that
"the people should arouse themselves to
"put on end to lawlessness by placing tn
government in more worthy hands.
The story which our Southern exchanges
bring US. day after day, is simply horrible
The Democratic party as an organization,
in that section, seems to have no policy eX-
cept policy Of the determination Of those
who differ from them politically, who re-
fuse to acknowledge the justice and sanctity
of the lost cause, and to agree that the negro
should be sent back into slavery. Whist
prospect of peace or order is there, If by
any chance a party of this character shall
get into powerf

SUcCEsg on THE NEWLOAN

SUCCESS o" THE NEW LOAN.
The negotiations which have been going
forward for some days past between the
Secretary of the Treasury on the one hand
and the combination represented by the
First National Bank of New York, August
Belmont and the Seligmans on the other,
for 90, 900, 900 of the five per cent. funding
loan, were brought to conclusion yester-
day. The combination, after much con.
sultation BY cable with their principals IN
Europe, aceeded to the terms Of the Score.
tary and agreed to take the $50, 600. 900 at
par and accrued interest, they to pay
the expenses of delivery and exchange, and
to receive one fourth of one per
cent. commission for so doing. They are
also to take the remainder of the S179,
100000 in six months, upon the
same terms. The chief point Of hesitation
appears to have been as to the period Of
time within which they should take the
latter portion Of the loan, they demanding
one year and the Secretary insisting upon
six months. The terms of the latter were
finally scceded to by the combination. As
1t is probable that the purchasers will be
able to secure fve-twenties to exchange for
the whole amount as soon as interest ceases
upon them by the call of the Secretary, the
syndicate can have little or no difficulty in
making the exchange within the time re-
CURED. There is also quite as little doubt
that the fives will appreciate in price imme-
diately upon the call for the skies, as in
vestors will be eager to secure them Is the
next best American security in the market.
While, therefore, there is every prospect
that the purchasers will realize q good
profit upon the transaction, it is safe to say
that General Bristow has succeeded In
placing the loan at less expense to the
Treasury than his predecessors have been
able to do, even though they were
not restricted like him by legal obligation
not to increase the public debt while max
ing the negotiations. This provision of the
law has tended to add greatly to the diff
culties by which the Secretary has found
himself surrounded, because the holders Of
six per cent. bonds would naturally exert
all their influence against the negotiation
Of q five per cent security, whose success
was to be the certain prelude to the ma
turity of their more lucrative investments
Under these circumstances the success Of
the new Secretary in this delicate affair
must rebound greatly to his credit a. a
Minister of Finance as well as diplomatist.
