Nothing now remains but to

will make desperate effort to carry
this county and district. Already
are they secretly organizing for the
fray, and a desperate effort will be
made by them to array the black
voters against the white voters to
get up a political war of races, and
for the reason that without the
negro vote the Radical party in
Shelby county and the district
does not amount to a respectable
minority, so far as size or numbers
are concerned.

In New York the police authori-
ties are enforcing a Sunday law
much to the annoyance Of a num-
Der of citizens. The Herald ex-
presses itself upon the subject in
the following sensible manner
"The Sunday law is the occasion
Of much sensational abuse by the
police. Last night as many as thirty
arrests were made at Gilmore's
Garden, the place and the occasion
being chosen because of the talk
the action will create. 1t is I'M
necessary to repeat what We have
so often said in regard to the use
lessness of this thing. Nothing
can be more harmless, on a SUNDAY
night even, than a glass Of beer tt
good music, and the police will moi
be able to justify their action to the
public unless they show that boil
the beer and the music were bad.
If half the zeal that is shown il
following up the wretched bar
keepers was exhibited in the pur
suit of thieves we would be able t
look With more pleasure upon tn,
efficiency Of the police department.

SECRETARY MORRILL, pledged
his word of honor to Mr.. Pot
ter that Mullett should not be
his successor in the event of his
resignation. 1t was upon this ex-
press understanding that Potter
resigned. He had fortified himself
with the record facts against Null
lett, and was prepared to show an
unparalleled case of incompetency,
fraud and corruption, on the part
of his predecessor. He was pre-
pared to make an expose which
would have startled the whole cOun-
try, but for reasons best known to
himself he consented to suppress
these damaging facts on condition
that Mullett should not be reap
pointed. 1t seems, however, that
Morrill, is likely to be oyerridden
by the President. Mullett is max
ing a desperate struggle, and has
secured the signatures of twenty
five Republican Senators, headed
by John Sherman, to apetition ask
ing the President to restore him to
his old position. Mr.. Morrill, is
dreadfully annoyed at this, and
fears that he will be compelled to
resign or break his pledge to Pot
ter. He he's appealed to the Sena-
tors who have asked for Mullett's
reappointment to withdraw their
request, but this concession is not
likely to be made to him. The
President, it is claimed by Mullett's
friends, has promised that he will
vindicate him, no matter what
Morrill, has promised Potter.
