respondent says: Reference is being
made to a scheme recently mentioned
for rendering New York, Ohio and
Indiana safe Republican States in
1880, by inducing quarter of a mil
lion of uneasy black men from the
South to move into them iii time to
become bo,sa.tcIe voters. Gen. But
Ter declared that an inevitable result
of such proceeding would be to render
those States Democratic beyond a
doubt. This would be dose by the
votes of the wOrkingmen, who would
be reused to intense hostility against
a party which imported such a throng
to compete with them in an already
over-stocked labor market. The feel
ing would be as bitter as that now ex-
isting in California against the

thize with the auti.Chinese sentiment

similar state of Things existing

Public officers.

A day or two ago the BAN
NER with much reluctance found
it necessary to make some
structures upon the official dis
charge of the duties of the JUS
tice Of the peace of the Bren-
ham precinct. The BANNER
wishes it distinctly understood
that in referring to officers in
the discharge of their duty it
reserves the right to criticise
their official action. With Off
GERS as private citizens we have
nothing to do, allowing every
man to stand or fall upon his
individusl merits. 1t should be
well understood that all public
servants are as such legiti-
mately subject to criticism.
Public duty demands that where
public officers neglect to dis
charge their duty they should be
gently hauled over the Goals"
We hope that our dearly be-
loved friend who "fills" the
magistrates chair will not be-
come offended at the BANNER
for gently reminding him ofhis
duty.

THE Philadelphia MqnUe,, a
moderate republican paper, is
not enthusiastic over the repub-
lican prospects for the approa-
ching Presidential election, In
a table, which it says is "the
best that can be done in the cleo
toral vote of 1880 favorable to
the republican party" it gives
as certain democratic States all
the southern States and In
diana, making I53 electoral
votes. In the doubtful States
it places Connecticut, New
York and New jersey, with 50
electoral votes, claiming the re-
naming northern and western
States, with I66 votes, as Certain
for the republicans. There are
necessary to a choice IS5 votes.
which the republicans will NOT
have, oven if the IS votes of
New Jersey and connecticut be
added to their I66. unless they
get New York. That, in fact,
is the only State they want to
make their election sure.
Hence the Inquirer regards
New York as the battle ground
and it concludes that nothing
but hard, intelligent work from
now until the day of the Presi-
dental election will avail, and
even with all that the result will
be in doubt"

The Moquis Indians of Ari-
zoua, numbering 1900, live in
seven villages on the tops of the
cliffs or headlands that rise
more than Goo feet above the
plains. Why they choose these
unhandy places is a mystery.
On reaching the villages, says a
recent visitor, one finds ones
self on a fiat ledge of bare rock
which extends out from the
main table nearly half a mile in
length, and from ten feet to per-
haps three hundred feet in width.
The sides are almost perpendic-
ular. The most populous of
these villages, Walla-pi, is on
the extreme end of the rocks,
where the width is not over one
hundred feet. All the water for
all purposes is carried in earth
en- vessels on the backs of men
and women, from spring near
the foot of the mountain, dis
lance of nearly mile, while the
wood is brought eight miles.
Here these people have lived
longer than they can tell, even
from their traditions, and hith-
erto they have been averse to a
change of location, notwith-
standing the difficulty of obtain
ing their necessary supplies and
the distance from their fields and
herds.

IT seems from a special from
Dallas to the Galveston We7oS
that there is more politics than
fact in the Panhandle country
troubles. Arrests were made
but no prisoners were forth
coming; it is suggested in the
special dispatch that political
influences are at work and that
certain movements are to be
brought about for the canvass
of 1880. In this canvass the
greenbackers are to play an
important part-just how inn
portant is yet to be developed.
1t may be that the Democrat :
party in Texas is to be conf
pletely wiped out by Norton
and his followers if any he has.
Time of course will show his in

THE LAWS DELAY.

The Austin Statesman and
the Marshall HyaH are at outs
in regard to the Currie case.
The Statesman thinks that Cur
RE will be acquitted because Of
the absence Of Witnesses. The
He1ata seems to entertain a
different view. The principal
Witnesses against Currie are
professional people actors
they depend upon Their profess
sion for a living and like most
professional people are not
wealthy; they are constantly
engaged in the effort to make a
living and have neither the time
or the money to travel a thous-
and or fifteen hundred miles to
prosecute Currie and then run
the risk of a continuance. Por
ter the man who was murdered
cannot be restored to life and it
is hardly to be expected that
his fellow actors can afford to
lose months of their most val
liable time in a bare possibility
of securing conviction. With
out taking any issue with our
esteemed contemporaries on
the merits of the case the facts
seem to be plain and are only a
stronger argument in favor of
speedy trials for murder cases.
1t is fair to presume that where
one man kills another there
must be very strong provoca-
ton and if the killing is justifa-
Bile there certainly can be no
excuse for a delay in trial.
Human life is held too cheaply
and the slayers of their fellow
men think nothing of laying in
jail for one, two or three years
in order to delay justice; as the
BANNER has on more than one
occasion said, justice is not wan
ted by the man slayer.

The Bryan College Trouble.

The discharge of the entire
faculty at the A. and M. college
at Bryan by the board of trus-
tees should be an example to
all preceptors not to be govern
ed by cadets. 1t seems, from
all accounts of the dismissal of
the faculty of the college that
they were, more or less to blame
according to the assertions of
the young man Crisp, and that
through Crisp the entire faculty
lost their places. So far as the
evidence published in the Gal
weston Meas goes to show, it
does not appear that any Of the
professors have been guilty of
any special direliction of duty,
but have made gross mistake,
and for that cause have been
requested to resign; this they
have done, and are now depen-
dent upon other situations. 1t
is to be hoped that future pro-
fessors in a state institution like
that at Bryan will neverhereafter
allow themselves to be govern
ed or controlled by a cadet, let
him be who he may.

--D-
LAMAR.

The name of the Hon. L. Q.
c. Lamar, Of Mississippi, hav-
ing been prominently mention
ed in connection with the Vice
Presidency;..the Vicksburg Hr'-
aid, an able democratic Journal,
in interposing its objection, rep
resents, not only the sentiments
of its own section, but those
of the democracy of the entire
south. 1t says:
True, Col. Lamar possesses,
more than any other man at the
south, the confidence and es-
TEEN of the northern people.
That is so, because his patriot
ism and. attachments extort
their praise. But we do not be-
lieve it opportune to present
his name or that of any other
southern man for a place on the
presidential ticket. This sec
ton is anxious to secure the
election of a good conservative
man, but such an one will carry
the south without placing
Mr.. Lamar or any other
southern man on the ticket &;
and Mr.. Lamar is in a position
now to do this whole country
more good than he would be as
vice, president, a position that
is little more than a figure head
at best. Let our state legisla-
ture elect another as able and
patriotic a senator to aid Mr..
Lamar, and we will have a SEN
atorial representation superior
to that of any other. state. Our
section does not so much need
the advancement Of Ter men,
as she does wise and liberal
rule, that will finally break
down sectional and race pre-

"SPARE the rod and spoil the
child" says the Philadelphia
Mnemy, may be a very wise AK
iom, but we cannot agree with
those who profess to see in the
recent Democratic defeats a
wholesome chastisement. Men
do not take any more kindly to
whipping than children do,
and are apt to be more discour-
aged by the inhiction, for the
reason that they do not forget
it SO soon. We do not pretend
to say that the castigation was
not richly deserved, for all over
the Union the Democratic party
of to-day appears to be abso-
lutely without grit or organiza-
ton. The leaders ofthe period
are men who seldom hesitate to
"dicLer" if a chance offers. for
they do not belong to the class
that in the past led the party to
victory. Even when some old
war-horse Of the democracy
shifts the battle from afar, and
pricks up his cars at sound of
the bugle, he charges blindly
into the ranks and confuscs
more friends than foes, until
driven off the field with his
tanks smarting from the fiat of
a cavalry sabre, laid on with a
will. Greeleyism was a sad dis
ease and Tildenism is not much
less troublesome; but the disease
from which the party suffers
most keenly is combination of
of personal greed and personal
vanity which develop the NAL
ady known as disintegration.
A house divided against itself
must fall-an army without a
leader is but a mob-either case
suits the present condition Of
the once great Democratic par
ty Of the United States.
