1t may not DO amiss to mention (for
the benefit Of bankers and business mem
that some dangerous eounterfeits upon
the national bank currency are being
imposed upon the public. Another
dangerous counterfeit fifty dollar note
was detected by the officers of the Penn
sylvania railroad in New York on the
9th. 1t was examined by bank experts
who fully confirmed the suspicious OF
the railroad men. 1t is believed that
the secret which Williamson 0he escap-
ed convict from Sing Sing offered TO
impart was, that many of the European
ports were being flooded with this fifty
dollar counterfeit, large amount of
which was finding ITS way to this coun-
try through emigrants.

THE REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.

IhE HEX ODLACAN SlA16 OVNv VEN 1AVNs
The time for the meeting of the Re
publican State Convention is near at
hand, and already suggestions are being
made by the press of the State concern
ing it. 1t has been the rule heretofore
of basing tho representation to the con-
vention upon the population of tho diff
ferent counties, and this custom (of al.
lowing two delegates to each legislative
district) has been tolerated rs the sim
plest method of apportionment. That
it saves mathematical computation is the
only argument that can be urged in its
favor.
A convention is supposed to be dis
tinctively and emphatically in the inter-
ests of the party under which it is called.
Its purpose is to give that party an op.
portunity to express its principles and
select such persons from its ranks as
nominees as are presumed to be the
choice of all Of that political faith. 1t is
therefore proper that those localities
which give that party the largest num-
Der of votes should be entitled to more
delegates IN the convention than others
in which the party vote is light. And
in the Republican State Convention the
ratio of representation should be deter
mined by the number of Republican vo-
ters in each county. Justice and far
dealing demand 1t.
Let the Democrats, whose numerical
strength in Leavenworth, AtchisOn,
Douglass and Shawnee counties secures
tor those counties such undue weight in
the Republican State Convention, at
tempt to control the action of the Repub-
lican primaries, and the Republican press
of those counties would violently de-
nounce the perpetrators of such outra
geous frauds. Yet they indirectly have
voice in tho Republican State Csnven-
ton and the representatives of minor
ity of tho Republican voters constitute
q majority of the convention.
1t is time that new rule was establish
cd and we hope such an expression in
its favor may be had from the press OF
the State, as will require the State Cen
trail Committee to base representation to
the next state convention upon the Re-
publican vote of each county.

Many Southern Democratic Congress

Many Southern Democratic Congress
men are receiving earnest letters from
their constituents deprecating the reop-
ening of the Presidents title, and regret
ting that any action should be taken by
them calculated to add to present finan.
cial difficulties, and weakening public
and private confidence. This augurs
we'll, and goes to prove that there are
many of those liberal spirits known as
conservative democrats yet asserting
themselves in the South, and who seem
not to have forgotten what honor is, and
know how to preserve it when pledged.
They, though comparatively in the mi
nority, truly show more by practice than
precept that they believe in the principle
enunciated by tho great statesman JEFF.
fcrson, that call men are free and equal,
and that the great body of the people
rule" not their public servants when
they send to the national capital to do
their bidding. These conservative men
show through the medium of those let
ters that the majority, or better elemen,
of their party are heart and soul with the
great body of the people Of the nation,
and Join in heartily condemning the
rasif proceedings lately enacted by their
congressman who pretend TO be carrying
ont the will of the people. Let these
perverse and faithiess men persist in
their glaring dishonesty and continue
making whatever investigations as to
them may seem best. but when election
day comes, the emphatic condemnation
witch will surely be voted to them may
answer as wholesome check upon all
who may hereafter endeavor to override
the will of the people. As Chairman
Hale of the Republican Congressional
committee, intimated-in their address
to the people-we believe that all good
citizens, without respect to party will
stand shoulder 70 shoulder in maintain.
