Democracy.

DcElOcfacys
Democracy stands to-day precisely
where it stood in 1861.
Its principles are the same,
Its purposes are the same;
And, though its politicians may put
forth one platform to-day, and another
platform tomorrow,
Though they may pledge this,
And swear that,
And profess the other,
They have not, and they never will
have, the power of qucnching one light
or tearing up one landmark of the party
Democracy is the same to-day, yes
terday and forever, and no man, no set
of men, can change one dot or point Of
its old, original creed.
The party-managers may meet, and
consult, and then proclaim that
Democracy yields this,
Democracy accepts that;
But their utterances are the mere rub
a-dub-dub of the hollow drum-beat--
full of sound, but signifying nil.
In confirmation Of this claim, we vii:
cite fresh historic fact:
In 1871 the politicians of our party
took New Departure,
And declared that they accepted the
War-.egislation as final.
In 1873 the party captured the Capt.
toll.
What then?
Did our Congressman and our Sena-
tors proceed to strengthen the weak
places in the Amendments and the like
War-legislation?
Not one bit of it!
On the contrary they held caucus;
And their spokesman, speaking for
that caucus, said:
GIVE DO NOT INTEND TO STOP
UNTIL WE HAVE STRICKEN THE
LAST VESTIGE OF YOUR WAR
MEASURES FROM THE STATUTE
BOOK"
This sentiment was hailed with right
royal plaudits on our side of the Coun-
Gil Chamber
And our Congressman, taking their
cue from the caucus, repealed the un-
constitutional laws that lent force and
effect to the Amendments
And, if President Tilden had occu-
pied the Executive Mansion, there
would have been an end to negrO-suf-
frage right then and there.
This little fact, of itself and by itself,
will demonstrate beyond all question
and cavil, that
DEMOCRACY STANDS TO-DAY
PRECISELY WHERE II STOOD IN
1861;
That this frantic talk and jabber on
the part Of the politicians to the con-
trary is all mist and moonshine.
You have heard it said in Confederate
quarters that the States is not repre-
sentative of the Democracy.
They may
loot and
Bugle,
Fiddle and
Fife
this assertion to the Universe, for all
we care or for all the impression it will
make on unprecedented minds.
We leave the history of the party it
self to speak in our behalf.
The States is not,
Never was, and
Never will be
representative of the
Policyites,
Stool-pigeons, and
Hypocrits
in the household of Democracy;
But it forever speaks for the honest
masses that never wear mask
The brave masses that are neither
afraid nor ashamed Of their principles
and purposes
The patriotic masses that have sworn
upon their affairs to ayenge the North
ern Democrats who suffered in Lin
coins Bastiles and the Southern Demo
Gratis who were killed or crippled by
Lincoln's blacklegs in blue.
Time at last sets all things even;
And, II they do but watch the hour,
There never yet WAS human power
That could evade. II unfOrEfven,
| The patient search and vigil long
OF those who Treasure mp . wrong.

As AGAINST the generally received

Paris, states that the sewage water, as
it comes from the sewers, is dark col

being filtered through the cultivated
ground it turns out Of the underdrains

New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1879-10-22

On this we have to remark, first, that
the plan is perfectly practicable. Itmay
be news to some of our readers, but It
is, nevertheless. fact, that the Consti-
tuition does not require Presidential
Electors to be chosen by the people.
It says they shall be .appointed in
each State lin such manner as the
Legislature thereof may Direct I'm
der this provision the Legislature may
authorize the people to choose them, or
the Governor of the State to appoint
them, or may choose them itself. At
present they are chosen by the people
in all the States, we believe, but it is
competent for any State Legislature to
change the mode of selecting or APP
pointing them, the Constitution giving
each State Legislature entire control Of
this matter. 1t is, therefore, perfectly
feasible for the Legislatures Of Missis-
sippi, Louisiana, South Carolina and
Florida to make the proposed change in
the mode of selecting Presidential
Electors, if they see fit to do so.
Whether they will do it remains to be
seen. The fact that the change is pro-
posed and agitated by leading Southern
politicians shows to what length they
are willing to 90 in order to defeat pop
ular government and maintain solid
South. That it would be thoroughly
undemocratic to take the power of
choosing Electors out of the hands of
the people and place it in the hands of
the Legislature of State needs no ar
gument to prove. Instead of moving in
that direction we ought to move in the
other, and give the people the power
of voting for President and Vice-Presi-
dent directly without the intervening
cnmbrous machinery of an Electoral
College, which serves no more useful
purpose than fifth wheel to a coach.
But instead of charging the political
power of the people, these Southern
Democratic leaders propose to curtail it
by taking u step backward instead of
forward. The object of the movement
is manifest. 1t is to place the appoint
ment of Democratic Presidential Elect
ors from all the States named beyond
the possibility of doubt. The Demo-
Gratis know that on a fair vote Louis
lana, Florida and South Carolina are
certainly Republican, and Mississippi
probably 50, and they propose to Sc
cure the Electoral votes of these States
by taking the choice of Electors out of
the hands of the people, and vesting it in
the Legislatures, which are Democratic.
The scheme is desperate one, but en-
inently characteristic of party which
stops at no wrong, fraud or outrage to
secure success. That party is now
bowling about the centralizing tcnden-
cies of the Republican party, and yet
we see that it will even rob the people
of their most sacred rights to secure
power. This scheme is the longest
stride toward Capitalization that has
ever been suggested in this country

LOCAL TOPICS,

The management of the Chester Fair AS
sociation will accept our thanks for ticket OF
admission to their grounds.
The passenger cars Of the Chester and Le-
noir Railroad have been recently overhauled
and repainted.
DR.. Glenn, surgeon dentist, will visit York
Vile, professionally, next week. See his ad-
vertisement.
The prize to be awarded at the Chester Fair
to the most proficient brass band, is fine
cornet. We should not be surprised if Bob
Herndon becomes possessor of that cornet.
The first rain in this section for nearly two
months, fell last Saturday night. There was
rain also OH Monday night, with decided
change in the temperature of the weather.
Mr.. S. w. Mitchell, one of the fast cotton
pickers referred to by us last week, lives near
Hickory Grove, this county, instead of Eta
Jane, Union county, as we had been informed.
The cotton picked by him-464 pounds-Was
done in twelve hours.
The statement in circulation, the first OF the
week, that Mr.. w. M. Warlick, lately publish
er of the Yorkville Ne,cs, was accidentally
shot near Lincolnton, N. c., last Saturday,
was untrue. Upon investigation we learn that
his brother-in-law, Mr.. Hoyle, who was en-
gagged here as a printer on the Netcs, was ac-
cidentally shot, while hunting on the day men-
toned, from the effect of which he died.

LETTER FROM CHESTER.
CHESTER, S. c., October 2l, 1879.

SHES -. w., oClOpCi lC'V
After long-continued dry spell, we were
visited on Saturday last with fine rain. Ev-
erything, animate and inanimate, seems to he
very much refreshed by the rain. The dust
had become almost intOlerable, and the wells
and small water courses were rapidly drying up.
Court is still in session, and will probably
continue all this week, without finishing the
dOckets. The following sessions cases have
been disposed of since the date of my last let
ter: State VS.. Lewis Barber larceny of live
stock. Verdict guilty, and sentenced to
the penitentiary for one year.
State VS.. Robert y. Mcdowell, white as
sault and battery with intent to kill. Verdict,
guilty, and sentenced to confinement III the
county jail for one year. The facts in this
case, as elected on the trial, are as follows
MI Mcdowell, armed with shot gun, was
guarding the corll-tield of his father-ll-law,
and while in the performance of this duty,
shot. without hailing, Ben. Cousar, colored,
who was in the act of stealing corn. The
defendant admitted that lie shot without hail
ing. that he did not intend to kill the thief,
and that he did not know who the thief was at
the time he shot, and that he thought he had
the right to shoot The Judge charged the
Jury that the prosecutor being in the act OF
committing felony, the defendant had right
to arrest him, and if necessary to shoot in Or
der to stop him but the law did not Justify
him in shooting without hailing or aftordlng

The Jury, composed of ten white men and two

could not do otherwise though their verdict

In regard to the Presidential nominations,
the veteran Thurlow Weed is quoted as hav-
ing said to recent interviewer: "There are
two facts we'll established: One is that Tilden
will not be powerful candidate. If Cornell
is elected, Tilden will fail to get even the
votes of his own State, and if Robinson were
reelected his (Tilden's) chances in the Dem.
ocratic Convention would not be materially
improved. The fact is, Tilden's name does
not appear on the slate; he has been cipher.

Only five changes are required to make
the United States Senatea tie in 1881. Thur.
man will be succeeded by Republican, but
there will be a standing off with the Demo
cratic Senator who will be chosen to succeed
Senator Bruce The gains which the Republi
cans hope to make are in the successors of Sen
ators Herman, of New York, Eaton of Connec
ticut, Mcdonald, of Indiana, Randolph Of
New Jersey, and Wallace, Of Pennsylvania
If they make gains in all these cases, the
Senate will be equally divided, and for the
Democrats to have majority, Kellogg would
have to be ousted. Davis, of Illinois, is moi
included in the calculation, because it is moi
known where he stands when the two parties
are so closely divided.

DEATH OF MR.. A. BERRY.

We regret to announce the death Of Mr.. A..
Berry, which occurred at 2 O'Clock A. M, last
Monday, under peculiarly distressing circum-
stances. Mr.. Berry came here from London,
Canada, last summer, and in company with
his son, established the business of bakery
and confectionery, leaving the remainder of
his family at their Canada home, to join him
here this Fall. Only last week his wife and
two children arrived here in anticipation of a
joyful meeting with the husband and father,
but only to find him very ill with pneumonia,
which, despite the best medical treatment,
proved fatal His family, in this sore Attic
ton, have the sympathies of the entire COM
munity. Mr.. Berry was a native of Jersey
Island and aged about "a years. He was
member of the Congregationalist church, and
had gained the esteem and confidence of our
people generally. He was buried on Monday
evening, Rev. Thos. Gilbert, pastor OF the NJ.
E. Church conducting the funeral ceremonies,
in the presence of large and sympathizing
congregation.
