professional man ia every sense of the

Is full Of such Changers during a pc.

well to remember il. A man who has
&seen a professional man in the true

Ohio County from Capt. Hill, for that
reason, is simply ridiculous. This Is
cqs&l TO the man who could not bear

Capt. Hill is a professional man, and
no man will say that he is not an hon

people-with the masses--because he
has identified himself with them and
worked for aud with them against
wrong and corruption, and will always
be found In the first ranks fighting for
popular rights wherever and whenever
assailed. He has no selfish motives in
running this race; he has only re-
spOnded to the earnest wishes of his
felloW-citizens. of all classes; he has
pledged his word to legisTa;e for the
people without distinction, and, as an
honorable man, he viii redeem his
pledge. Then, let not any plausible
political trickery deter you from doing
duty you owe to your county and to
yourselves, an act you will never live

Hope for Louisiana.

It is snow confidently reported that
the Louisiana Commission has fixed
upon a basis of settlement of affairs
for that State. The Legislature is
to bo composed Of members declared
elected by tho.parishlretuns, instead
of those seated by the Returning
Board. This gives both the Senate
and tho House to the Democrats. The
Legislature will then do ! ,ro the
gubernatorial election.
Besides being the proper mode of
settlement, this has also the advan~
tagc of freeing Haye' from .cmbar-
rassment. The Legislature of Lou
isiana is the Judge Of the qualitica-
tions of it's mombers, rs is tho case in
State, and the Returning Board has
no jurisdiction. In answer to the
assertion that Hayes and Packard
must stand or fall together, it is
sufficient for the President to say
that thero were two sets Of Judges
of elections appointed by the Con-
stitution of Louisiana entirely indie,
pendent of each other one, tho
Returning Board, to count the cleo
toral vote, the other, the Legislature,
to scrutinizo tho votes cast for its
own members and forgovernor. One
set Of judges has decided in favor
OF tho Republicans, the othor for
tho Democrats. Two courts of
separate jurisdiction will thus have
decided, each upon tho subject mat
tor brought before it. For these
decisions, the judges of election, and
not tho President, arc responsible
A considerable tanglo can in this
way be nnraveled, satisfactorily to
Hayes and to the Democratic State
officials Of Louisiana, while tho wind
will be taken from tho sails of
Blaine, Beast Butlor and the carpet
baggcrs.

and voted by platoons. Thousands
of fraudulent votes were cast, md
tho whole election. was vitiatod. 1t
is matter Of grave doubt whether
tho entire election should not DO
sont back to tho pcoplo.
We hold that tho Democrats must
be just, and that they should admit
into tho House all mombors entitled
to seats. But at tho snme timo
they should manifest no mawkish
sentimontality in extending amnesty
to all offenders. If any applicants
appoor, whose claims arc not worthy
of recognition, they should DO
promptly refused admission. Tho
Radicals should be taught tho cost
of dcspising the Swill of the
people and tho decisions of tho
courts.

grandly upon the courts. Cardoza
should be made to understand his

must accept, not dictate, terms.
The proper tribunal to investigate
his merits is the court of general
sessions, and the modo of proce-
duro should be by criminal indict-

Who Shall be Admitted L?

The Constitutional House, on as
scmbling, should carefully scrutinizo
tho claims Of applicants for admis~
ion. The seats of tho recnlcitrant
members arc in reality vacant, and
tho claimants can retain them only
by snlferance. In addition to this
general cause there arc special rea-
SONS why certain ones should bo
excluded. The Radical candidates
in Chester were declared elected by
about two hundred majority, and
Irregularities and intimidation can
be proven sufficient to turn the re-
suit tho other way. In addition,
John Lee, ono of those declared
elected, was Federal postmaster ut
the timo Of tho election, and is there
fore ineligible. The Democrats of
Nowborry and Darlington have also
strong points on which to unseat the
entire Radical delegations from
those counties. The election in
Charleston was gigantic fraud. In
the city the whole police force, tho
hosts Of deputy shoriffs and tho trial
