THE SUPREME CoURr has scttlod
the question about tho circuit judges
Justices McIver and Haskell hold
ing that these judges cannot be
elected viva voce, but must be by u
secret ballot. Chief Justice Willard
files q dissenting opinion. This
decision vacates the judgeships in
all the circuits except those Of
Judges Kershaw and Wallace-who,
it will be rendered, were elected by
ballot. Tho Legislature is expected
to fill the vacancies on the 4th of
February. On hearing of tho do
cision, Judge Townsend, who was
holding court at the time, immediate

A Financial Nut to Crack.

We conversed q few days since
with gentleman who is the owner
of certain State bonds. They were
purchased, before the war, on the
credit Of the State. Ho spurns the
proposition to throw in his claims
along with bogus Radical bonds
and to have one half Topped Oft !;
and he now wishes to know wheth-
er the State will redeem the
promises made in her palm ydays,
What are we going to do with him
and similar holders Of hundreds of
thousands of dollars, who have re-,
pudiated tho Radical Consolidation
Act? This is a question to bo con-
sidered by Ihe Ne,os and Courier,
and others who argue that the
Consolidation Act should, of right,
bo sustained. Tho bona .EIe claim
ants who refuse to 60 into hotch-
potch aro defrauded Of their legal
interest while swindlers, spccu.,
lators and harpies, who funded
fraudulent claims at fifty cents on
tho dollar, are to receive interest
regularly. Does not this smack
somewhat of ropudiation? If the
law compels us to abide by the
Consolidation Act, does not honor
impel us to afford some relief to
those holding honest claims who
have not funded?

othor favoring Jones and Brown
and opposing Smith. In this
dilemma, he votes for tho Smith
delegation, and sacrifices his other
preferences. On the other hand,
in tho primary election, each mcm-
Der of the party votes directly for
Smith for sheriff, Jones for pros
bate judge and Brown for county
commissioner. Each candidate
stands on his own merits, and the
aspirants for smaller Offices arc
not sacrificed in the general melee
The votes from all the clubs arc
aggregated, and the candidate re-,
cciying n ma jority of all the votes
cast is tho nominee Of the party.
When thero is no majority tho two
highest candidates for each Office
can be sent back. This is The fair,
square way of making The nomina-
tions. No charge of unf;,irnoss can
be raised, and the party will back
the nominees to man.
The primary system is as salts
factory in practice us in theory. It
has been found in many States to
be the only means Of keeping tho
party together Tt has been prac-
tised with the best results in An
derson and Abbeville; and other
counties speak of adopting it. Let
Fairfield take II step forward in this
direction.

We have advorted to the necessity
of thorough organization of the

is of such grave Importance that we
again recur to it. The State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee, last
year, submitted consti tuition for
tho whole Stato;, which, however, was
not to go into operation until the
opening of the campaign this year
AS there is, however, to be q
thorough reorganization, stops to
secure it should be taken at once
at some future time we will publish
tho constitution submitted--which
deals chiefly with State politics,
leaving tho management of county
affairs to. local control. TO this
latter point the care of our county
Committee should be directed.
After careful consideration, it
would appear that tho system of
primary elections is frcest from
objections. So long as personal
reasons influence the choice of
candidates, it is better for tho voter
to haxo direct voice in tho nomi-

individual voter cannot express his
preference by means of delegates to
convention, however puro the
latter may bo. At ovory general
election there are at loast half a
dozen offices to be filed. If nomi
