POLITICAL Notes.


Butler has bagged one convention and
has net around another.
Tilden proposes to "Wipe out" Kelly.
he can't do it with soft soap.
The whole Democratic press is united
in an outPouring abuse upon John Kel-
ly.
The Solid South never repudiates its
mistakes, but goes on repeating them
forever.
The Rochester Union pronounces the
Republican doctrine that "this is Ma
ton" to be ''monstrous, and declares
that 'tNstion" Is "sn unqualified
word, the use~of which was studlously
avoided by the founders of the govern
ment."
Sunset Cox in his speech before the
New York Democratic convention ct
Syracuse counseied harmony with the
view of success now and q triumph
next year which shall elect TO the presl-
dency q man who will have the energy
and courage to take and hold the posi-
ton to which he is thus called.
AhC o6tboScN DcluOCfalo Vi Tue COuu-
try outside Of New York are catching
eagerly at the report that Tilden will
force Robinson to retire from the
ticket, and viii promote Potter to the
first place. They are sure it Is entirely
probable, and that il is g solution Of
the muddle which will save the party.
They little know Governor Robinson.
he Is q very uncomfortable man 10
''force." Next to John Kelly he has
more acreage Of backbone than any
other man in Anerlca. Both men have
their dsnder up, and Tilden hasn't the
power to "force" either Of them into
subsection. Neither man ca1 retire
without subiecting himself 10 bound
less ridicule, and neither one Of them
loves Tilden Sufficiently to brsEe it for
TIlden's sake alone.

IF BEATEN IN OHIO AND NEW
YORK, WHAT NEXT.

If Ohio and New York follow Cali
fornia and Maine and elect Foster and
Cornell, instead of Ewing and Tilden's
man Robinson, the great National Dem
ocratic party should follow the exam
pie set by Tilden aud his adherents in
New York in thrusting out Tammany.
In doing this Tllden acted wisely, and,
wisely, simply because it was right.
But if Tilden's defeat follow, the rea-
sons that induced him to kick out Kel-
ly and his CHASTITY crew will induce the
Democracy of the North and South to
eject Tilden and his batch of Eastern
pluHderers aud bondholders. They seiz-
ed Congress and set Randall and Potter
roaring that the country might forget
silver and gold and bonds and tariffs
that Northern and Southern sections
might wool one another and Bsrksdsle
and Gully make President. When
Tilden and his allies have wrought
this crime and failed Of their purpose
in selzing the presidency should they
not suffer the consequences and be
cast, with Kelly, better man than
Tilden, into outer darkness7 Let us
watch and pray and if New York and
Ohio be lost let the West and South
coalesce in 1880 and have tariff and
currency legislation, such as we
need, and steamers to Vera Cruz
and Rio de Jsneiro and the VAL
ley of the Mississippi redeemed
from floods and from poverty. There
are western questions enough to bring
over to Us every State west of Penn
sylvsnia, and those old and guided MIS-
tresses OF the continent, Massachusetts,
and New York, must stand aloof for 8
time. II the Mississippi's mouth were

Federal gold, long ago, would have

the Great Eastern would be making

Perhaps, therefore, it would be fertu-
nate for Western and Middle States il
Tilden's party be beaten in the two
great BODYBUILDING aud banking States,
Ohio and New York. Then Randall,
Potter, Garfield and Blaine and Tilden
would no longer be enabled to give US

Mr.. WRIGHT wal u the door Of his
church opened to coiored membership,
and if it were not for the earnest
Christian z:al of the man, We would
have to conclude that he intends to be
q candidate for the msyorslty. In
slavery times the negroes belonged to
churches along with their masters and
nistresses, and joined them in Holy
Communion, but caIpet-bsggers came
down upon US and mapped out the color
line, and the enfranchised blacks accept
ed it and at once established church
organizations of their own, aud have
zealously maintained them. Negroes
do not desire church utilization with
whites, and they have already put an
end to the question by their acts, while
whites have positively concluded that
this result is best. Had Mr. Wright
looked into these matters closely be-
fore he preached the question to his
congregation, on last Sunday, he
would have acted differently. H. has
either made a mistake or he is a
prophet, foreseeing an immediate mil
lennium.

THE whole press and people of Texas
concur in what is said by the San Au-
gustine !Sdron when it declares that
Judge Richard s. Walker should be
appointed one of the Judges of the
Court of Errors and Appeals. He is
certainly the choice of the people OF
Eastern Texas, rs we'll as other Sec
tions of the State; and his ability can
be ascertained by referring to the &C
ton of the supreme court on the many
causes appealed from his judgments.
Coupled with his legal ability Judge
Walker has many personal attributes
which recommend him to the people
ard the Governor. His morality, hon
esty and integrity; his independence
and dislike for that class of ambitious
men who will sometimes "step softly
over the pathways of the law in order
to secure certain influences in future
contests for political positions are
everywhere recopnizcd.

NORTHERN papers think it novel
idea, but, practically, it has been in
vogue in Texss for years past. 10
Russia. however, the habit OF Texans
is enforced by law and every horse
must have his passport or properly
certified bill of sale. The measure is
adopted not in view OF political danger
from the equine race, but in order to
prevent misfortune that often hap
pens to the horses themselves, namely,
horse stealing. According to this curl
Gus project, the birth, peculiar signs,
and death of every horse must be re-
corded, and the proprietor of horse
or horses is to be furnished with a
horse passport that will entitle him to
the legal possession of said horse or
horses. Now, as horse thief cannot
possibly steal both the horse and its
passport, he cannot sustain his night to
the possession of stolen horse. This
is the essence of the wit and wisdom of
the Russian official in this matter.

dices against him, and yet he declares
the several States to be "free and in

mated that an actual money cost Of

POSTMASTER SABIN of Galveston
asks Gems. Hoxie and Jordan why they
cannot set down a passenger from
Houston in New Y.rk city as chesply
as a bale of cotton. The passenger re-
quires no handling, does not often take

up by spontaneous combustion, and
then he occupies only one fourth the

the weight of the cotton,

RANDALL, Potter, Tilden, Blaine
and Conkling made the present new
platforms for parties. They had no more
authority to do this than we to I'M
make these platforms, and when these
"principles" have exhausted their
usefulness in Ohio and New York and
killed off Tilden, it is proposed that
the press and people rescind the action
of the Congressman named and create
new platforms for old and new parties.
Let US have a paper currency meas
ured in its volume as three to one by
that of silver and gold, and there is
enough of these metals to give the
country all the paper it would have.
Then let US reconstruct the tariff and
straighten the Mississippi, diverting its
floods into lateral streams, and if the
jstties fail open a Suez ship canal
from New Orleans to the Gulf.
Instead of New England navigation
and registry acts, let US have free trade
and ships and direct steamship trade
between New Orleans and Rio and
Vera Cruz. 1t is as wise and just to
substitute Southern and Western-the
great river makes our West and South
an unit-as Northern steamship lines,
aud to perfect harbors on the Gulf as
along the great lakes. A much
more profitable and simple and practi-
cal platform than that of Ohio and
New York can be constructed and the
sooner the better. But the people
must come to the front. They must
rebel against the politicians who have
sold out to Wall street and the East.
