WHO DID IT?--ANSWER.
THE COST OF sHERIFF's SALES
from the Adyertiser-pemocra,ic.l

From the Advertiser-Democratic.
The cost Of Sheriff's sales in Della
ware is infinitely greater, than in any
other country in the world. The max
ium cost of such sale in Pennsylva'
MIA is $50. Let poor, wronged debtors
inform us how much it costs to sell
them out of house and home in this
State. 1t is all right; we suppose the
organs must live; and as corollary
the poor must be robbed.
On the above the Wilmington Com
mercial says:
"From paragraph which VIC copy
from the Advertiser we infer that that
paper is not satisfied with the law of
advertising sherlff's sales in this State.
W ell, who passed the law? Who fix
ed this system to rob the poor" that
'organs" may live? Was it Repub.
lican Legislature? Shoulder your own
burdens, gentlemen.
On page 2S9 House Journal of 1873,
Mr.. Maris, Republican from Whining
ton, gave notice of bill entitled can
act to amend Chapter Ill Of the Revis-
ed Statutes of the State of Delaware" "
which bill was "cut up" in the House
by amendments sent to the Senate
where it was defeated. The bill how
ever, in a somewhat disguised form in
the closing hours of the session was
put through both houses. Nobody
knows how-we do not mean to charge
unfairness upon its advocates, but
there was not a member of the House,
outside of New Castle delegation, who
knew when or how 1t passed-and sew
eral expressed their surprise when the
law was published. The New Castle
delegation (republican) seemed anxious
to give certain newspapers share ol
lpublic patronage. But now how things
have changed. A bill was prepared
limiting the rate of charges for the
Sheriff's advertising. and early in thu
last session put on its course in thu
House. The opponents of the new bill
, could produce no argument but KEEP
, back the bill in the hands of the com
r mittee, and not until the very las
hours of its session did it pass tn
House, though it had three-quarte
7 majority when the House was not il
e session. Then the bill went to tn
( Senate and was loaded with amenc
ments by Mr.. Ray ,and at last, throug

The Remedy.

The conclusion reached by the
majority of the Louisiana investi-
eating committee-that the best
way TO deal with the State is by
withdrawing The Federal bayonets
and leaving the people to govern
themselves-will be readily accept
ell as wise and correct one. 1t
will undoubtedly he strongly OBJ
iccted to by those who uphold the
Federal interference which has
taken place in Louisiana, but to
the great majority to the people
to whom the Interference has been
odious, and who believe that the
troubles in the State have been in
creased and engendered by it, the
conclusion will be hailed as a
rational and common sense one.
The majority Of the committee say
that if tho Federal government
will take its hands off of Louisiana,
the people will remedy their trouo-
les without outside assistance. If
the "let alone policy had been
pursued for the past two years, in
stead of that of warning upon the
rights of the people. Louisiana
would not now be in a condition to
need any investigation at the hands
Of n Congressional committee
Mcssrs. Foster, Phelps, Potter and
Marshall-two Democrats and two
Republicans, and majority of the
investigating committee--think it
may not yet be two late for the
adoption of the policy of non-inter-
ference-for trying the experiment
of permitting the Kellogg govern
ment to stand or fall by its own
strength-of treating the people
of the State just as the people OF
Northern States arc treated, and
of putting the United States troops
to some better use than that of
sustaining despotism in power
and Of being made the instruments
Tor working out the designs of po-
litical schemers. VIII Congress

The Lansing Republicans voice
is for war, and war to the knife be-
tween the two great political or
CARNATIONS in this State, during
the coming spring campaign. So
says the majority of tho Radical
press. If this be the case, can the
Democracy afford TO be numbered
up with o lot Of Liberal" as
aspirants whose only object is
to weaken our party in all
its movements There are a few
well-meaning men who class them
selves Liberals" or "Reformers,
but they are not the loud-mouthed
ones who are hanlering after office.
The honest Liberals propose to act
and act with the Democratic party,
and do not want separate nomina-
tons, nor yet do they entertain
separate views. We arc in favor
of n non-partisan Judiciary, but
don't like to see outsiders wedge
themselves in under q neutral
guise.

From the press of all shades OF
political opinion comes a demand
upon Congress for decisive settle
ment of the Louisiana question
before adjournment. Any contin-
uance of the policy of evasion,
which has been attended thus far
with such injurious consequences,
will call out no small storm OF
righteous indignation. For our
selves, we hope that some law may
be framed, providing for a new
election as long since urged by
Senator Carpenter, and as last
week proposed again during the
Pinchbacl struggle by Senator
Edmunds.-Det. Tribune.
