Auosn ,he names rnggested iOr a place

AMONG the names suggested for a place
on the Republican State ticket at the
coming Parkersburg Convention is that
Of Judge james H. Brown, of Kanawha.
lie !. ,poken Of for the Supreme Court
Of Appeals, a position that he filled years
upo with acccptabiIity, not only to Re-
publicans but to all classes ot citizens.
I'VE do not forget the important services
rendered by Judge Brown to the Union
cause in this State during the war, and
inasmuch as he is gentleman Of high
personal character and well qualified
professionally to fill the place, We shall
sincerely rejoice to see him re-
nominated for his old position. We
always felt that Union man in the
Kanawha region during the war deserved
special credit for his patriotism. It was no
small matter to come out on the side OF
the Union in that part Of the State in
1861. And hence We shall never cease to
remember kindly such men as Judge
Brown, Greenbury Slack, Lewis RuilneF,
E. W. Newton, Daniel POlsley, ). NJ,
McWhorter, Lewis Ballard, Lewis Bum
garner, John Hall, Anthony RAIDER, and
other leading men Of the Third district
When such an influential leader as Geo
W. Summers failed the Union cause in
1861, these men stood firm, and to their
honor the fact must always be recorded
It is on this account that we have weak
ness. so to speak, for seeing such men Al
Judge Brown named for public position
at this late day.

assures the miners that II a strike is be-
gun there ia every likelihood OF its con-
tinuing for some time with the possibility
OF having TO submit to still greater re-
duction.

too well-informed not to know the huc-
tuations that attend popular elections.
Take the year 1872 for example. In
most of the Northern States the Demo
Gratis failed, by many thousands,
to poll their full vote for the Greeley
ticket. Two years afterward, they raj
lied, and swept the country likea tornado
The Democratic gains in 1874 over the
vote OF 1872, were proportional to the
Republican losses. And yet it does not
follow that the result was attained by
improper means. In Ohio, the popular
vote at the late election was more than
fifty thousand larger than it had ever
been. VIM. Allen, the defeated Demo
cratic candidate for Governor, actually
received a much larger vote than he did
two years before, when he was elected
and yet the figures are not used to sustain
a charge of fraud against the successful
Republican candidate, much less are they
made the pretext for Congressional
inquiry into the election.
Let Senator Morton continue to wave
the flag of the bloody shirt. Let
him continue to press his resolutions
for Senatorial inquisition into the af-
fairs of Mississippi in violation of the
Constitution and in derogation of her
rights as the equal Of the other states of
the Union. Let him proceed with his

Treasurer. With due Difference to orr
distinguished Senator, whose opinion we
hold in the highest esteem, we cannot
see why the salaries of these officers
should not be equal to those of the heads
of the other departments. Their du-
ties require constant attention, and as

THE MISSISSIPPI ELECTION.
Facts and Figures W.. Fiction
and FaiseHOods.

The conviction that frauds were perpetra-
ted at the late election, gathers strength by
comparison ofthe returns with those of pre-
ceding elections.-Goy. Ames' Message.
The figures with which Senator Morton
was supplied by Mississippi official
to prove his charge of fraud and violence
against the successful party in our cleo
ton, and to justify federal interference
in the affairs Of the State without the au-
thority of the Constitution, when the
facts are properly understood, fail of
their purpose entirely. The election
statistics, which ne parades, are tabulated
as follows:
