yond the power of any Legislature 10
impose, but it goes on further to de-
clare that they were subversive of the
rights and derogatory to the dignity
of the people. In view of all this will
any one be surprised to learn that the
only ordinance proposing to interfere
with the Homestead provisions was
introduced by Radical delegate and
that, the Democrats being in the ma
jority, it was promptly dc cided to be
beyond the power of the Convention
to consider or act upon
What record the Radical party has
thus made for itself on the Homestead
question! A Democratic legislature for
bids the Convention it has called into
existence to interfere in any way with
the Homestead provision and requires
the members of the Convention to
take a solemn oath not to interfere
with it. The Radicals on the stump
and on the press with one consent de-
clare the oath and restrictions not to
be binding in law and twenty-five of
the delegates enter upon the
records of the Convention their SOL
emn protest not only that the oath and
restrictions are not binding in law but
that they are subversive to the rights
and derogatory to the dignity of the
people of North Carolina How can it
be subversive to the rights and derog-
atory to the dignity of the people for
delegates to a convention to change
the Constitution to be bound by an
oath not to change the Homestead
Law? The people did not want the
Homestead Law changed and for that
reason the delegates to the..Couvention
were required to take solemn oath
not to interfere with it and yet say the
Radicals this was subversiye to their
| rights and derogatory to their dignity
1t is to Democratic precaution and
| to Democratic regard for the sanctity
| of solemn oath and to Democratic
respect for Legislative authority that
the people owe the preservation of the
| Homestead law.

make his escape and has not since

immense amount of testimony bearing
upon Barth's frauds and also the mode
of conducting the business OF the

its labors and adjourned for a few

THE

We have but little this morning con-
corning the st. Louis Convention. At
1920 o'clock yesterday the body was
called to order by August Schell.
Chairman of the National Democratic
| Central Committee, who proceeded to
make a few remarks appropriate to the
occasion. Henry Watterson, the po-
lilical editor of the Louisville Courier
chairman. Then followed several stir
ring speeches from members, eliciting
the most tunultuous applause. and at
2 O'Clock the convention recessed to )
p. NJ. The telegraph was silent re-
garding last nights proceedings. Mr..
Watterson, the temporary chairman,
we take it, is a supporter of Governor
Tilden. At all events, the paper with
which he is connected has all along
been a jealous advocate Of the nom
ination of the Governor. The speeches
made yesterday, though not tele-
graphed to the SENTINEL, yer ex-
ceedinsly patriotic and well-timed, and
the most perfect harmony prevailed in
the convention. Possibly much of the
work of the convention was done at
the evening session, but as we have
nothing on the subject, we are of
course left to conjecture. 1t is reason
able, however, to infer hat a perma-
organization at least was effected.
If such were the case the convention
will probably begin to ballot early to
day. There is a strong probability
that the ticket will be Tilden and
Hendricks. This would be a giant
team and not easily beaten. But
it is unnecessary to speculate, for in all
probability our home readers will be
in possession of all the facts long be-
fore the going down of to-day's sum-.

WHO BEAT HAYES.

Ex-Secretary Bristow has been inter-
viewed concerning his successful rival
for the Republican nomination for the
Presidency. Regarding Governor
Hayes political career, he said:
"There IL a statement that Hayes
was never beaten. He was beaten tor
Congress by Banning, and that, too,
when his party was In the q cendancy.
but IL was ut q time of one.of those
strange revolutions in politics when
no other man in HIS place conld have

The Banning alluded to in, the above
extract Is Colonel Banning. who spent
a week or two in Eureka about three
years ago as the guest of Psrson
Kelly. Colonel Banning commanded
an Ohio regiment in the war of the re-
bellion. and he is altogether a man OF
great force Of character and
fne requirements. In his contest
with General Hayes he had many
prominent men of his w party
arrayed against him, but he car
ried the Wal into Africa, slash
ing right and left, and the result was
that he came out an easy winner. We
were favored with . voluminious
pamphlet which he issued during the
campaign, setting forth his grievances
as well as his claims to public favor.
In fact he made just such a fight as
Blaine would have made under sim
liar circumstances.

NOT POSTED

In response to an Enquirer the
Enterprise thus gives the rule CON
corning the representation of the Ter
~ritories in National Conventions:
Delegates to a National Convention
from "a Territory, like Territorial dele
gales to Congress, have a voice hut no
vote. They merely attend 10 acquaint
the delegates from States with tine
wishes OF the people of the Territories.
They are permitted to act As counsel
but not to vote ~ jurors. If our cor
respondent will remember, the roll at
Cincinnati was called ''by States" and
nothing was said about Territories.
The Enterprise editor is mistaken.
The two last National Republican Cor
ventions admitted delegates from the
Territories on an equal footing with
the delegations from the several States.
In the late convention, as will be re-
memsered, all OF the Territories, ex-
cept Wyoming, voted for Blaine, and
their votes were so recorded on each
ballot. The Democrats, however, have
never observed this rule, save in the
present convention, when Colorado,
on the ground that it was shortly to
becomes member of the Union, was
allotted three delegates.

TILDEN THE NAV.

There Is little room for doubt that
Governor Tilden, of NeY York, will
receive the nomination of the st.
Louis Convention for the Presidency.
His availability rests solely on the po-
tsncy of the reform issue in the coming
campaign. IT reform is to eclipse all
other issues in the canvass, then, as
siredly Tilden is the man. As an
able exchange t%ruthfully remarks:
"He bears the scars and wears the tro-
phies Of a reforiner." The only thing
the st. Louis Convention is called
upon to decide, therefore, is whether
the popular mind is in a state to de-
mand reform above all other consider
q ions. This once determined in the
affirmative, and there is no other
course left to the convention but to Sc
I .ct Governor Tilden as the standard.
belrer OF the party; not because. he is
the most honest man in the Democratic
party, but because circumstances have
made him the best representative of
the reform issue. If the people of the
United, States desire to bear testimony
to the supreme necessity of reform,
they can do SO only through a candi-
date with a conspicuous reform rec
ord. TheIe are perhaps scores of DEM
ocratic statesmen equally as able and
as honest a. Governor TIlien, but
good fortune has so linked his name
with the idea that must be uppermost
all through the canvass that it would
seem like the EXTREMIST folly to place
any one else at the head of the ticket.
II the Democrats can not win on a re-
form platform with Tiiden to lead,
there is practically little hope for
them. Almost every chance they
have OF success seems 10 us to center
in this programme. AS between Hen
bricks and Hayes, or Thurman and
Hayes, OIL Hancock and Hayes, or
Parker and Hayes, earnest reformers,
II there be any of that class, would not
readily arrive at u choice, and the re-
suit would he the dragging along ofthe
canvas through the dog-days on the
old party questions, with the chances
of vsuccesss between the tickets
about equal. The Democrats will need
something more than mere party al
legiance to succeed in the impending
battle. They must have at least one
overshadowing war cry that will cleo
trify the country and carry thorough
conviction TO the minds of the honest
masses. That word is +" Reform" and
Tilden is the man to put forward as
the living embodiment Of it. With
Tilden on the one side and Hayes on
the other, the latter backed up and
cordially supported by the, present
Administration, including Babcock,
Belknap, Boss Shepard and the thou
sand and one Federal rings in all Sec
tions Of the country, the reform issue
would bs as clearly drawn as the 10y
atty issue was ten years ago in the
contest between Lincoln and McClel-
Ian, and when thus drawn and pre-
scented there could hardly be a ques-
ton touching the result. All things
considered, therefore, Governor Tilden
must be accepted AS the mar for the
race. With him, the Democrats will
enter upon the campaign assured Of
victory; without lin, they will invite
defeat by restricting the hattie to the
old party issues of former campaigns.

THE NuMBER.-The Democratic Ma
tional Convention is composed of 744
delegates, instead of 554. as was erro-
neously stated in yesterdays issue.
A majority vote would be 1873, but
under the two-third rule the success
full candidate must receive 496. None
of the Territories are accorded n repre-
sentation, except Colorado, which, it is
expected, will be admitted as a State
prior to the presidential election. The
latest and most reliable canvass places
Tilden's strength at 420 on the first
ballot. Other delegations are relied
upon to go over to him after they
shall bave comp!imented "favoriie
sons" 1t is probable, therefore, that
Tilden will be nominated ON the second
ballot.
