At the hour for opening the polls at
stanford precinct No. l, not an officer ap-
pointed 10 hold the election could be found.
An hour passed and still they came not.
Then the County Judge, the Clerk and va
riou- and sundry lawyers began to lay
their heads together to consider what
should he done. The laws bearing on the
subject were read and discussed. II
only one of the appointed officers would
come, all would be right. and finally when
II had been decided TO send for one, Mr..
james l.. IIackley put in his appearance,
and gave rs n reason for his delay that he
thought nine O'Clock was the proper hour
to begin. lie then appointed the other
officers and the work began, not, however,
until great deal Of dissatisfaction had
been expressed All day long the town
was black with negroes, and il was wonder
fnl TO see the unanimi,y with which they
voted for Adams for Commonwealth At
torncy, and Caldwell for Sheriff, although
neither had been put out by his party.
4 great many -o-called Democrats staid at
home, and the result was that Mr.. X. c.
Warren received but 90 majority in Stan
ford where he should have had at least
800. II is passing strange how men, with
any desire whatever foi the success Of the
Democratic party, can fail to vote on every

To the Editor of the Press:
A large liberty is allowed in political discus
sions and in the heat of politicali campaign
newspapers often indulge in language which is
scandalous in the extreme. But there are
limits which should not be passed and the man
on the paper which in cold blood reiterates
slander and assails foully and falsely the
character of political opponent should
be punished.
have noticed several times since the cleo
tion statements in the Argus that Garfield
was perjurer and a bribe taker. This libel
was deliberately reiterated in this MORN
ing's issue. Such base, scurrilous assault
upon President elect should be deeply re-
sented by every decent man. The Argus and
its editor should be held responsible for such
baseness and if there are no public means of
teaching the m decency, private ones should be
sought. If the Republican party will take up
the matter, the remedy is in ther own hands.
The Argus is largely dependent upon Re-
publican support. Most of its advertising bust
ness comes from Republicans. Let these men
demand that such libels shall cease and they
will. Until they do cease the paper should
receive the,treafment of scurrilous hbeller
and should not be patronized by any Repnbli-
can. H.

The Brunswick, Georgia, Appeal lashos
the Northern Democracy in this fashion:
"The solid South will now learn to ignore
the monopoliziug Copperhead Democracy of
the North. They CALLED us into secession
they speculated upon our blood and misfor-
tunes through the war between the States,
and for fifteen years they have lied to us,
deceived us and sold us to the Republicans.
The New York Democracy, controlled by
the scoundrels, Belmont, Hewitt & Co., are
too corrupt to merit even eternal damnation.
What shall we do? say break the solid
business and vote for Garfield. Garfield is
intellectual aud great as statesman. The
true policy of the South in this supreme
emergency of duty, and as last effort to
save the constitution and the republican
forms OF liberty, is to cast her entire cleo
toral vote for Garfield and make his cleo
ton unanimous"

- O4e1AASAs
Serious dissensions have arisen in the
British Cabinet which cannot fail 10 give
encouragement to the leaders of the Land
League and add to the di fficulties in the
way of the solution of the Iri- h problem.
Mr.. Bright has notified Gladstone that he
will resign if policy of coercion in Ireland
is adopted, and Mr.. Forster has signified his
intention to follow Mr.. Bright's example.
On the other hand, if the coercion policy is
abandoned other designations, quite as i'm
of the tenants against rent paying is be-
coming more determined ard assuming more
OF the aspect of an open rebellion against
the laws of the land. The Boycott episode
shows how thoroughly Mr. Parnell and his
associates have aroused the Irish people,
Undoubtedly in the contest now waging
there has been much done or left undone
on both sides which was impolitic, to say
the least. The Land League was originally
founded to secure a reduction of rent. The
recent famine very much strengthened the
organization because it lessened the
ability of the tenants to pay rent, and there
fore made the need of reduction more press
ing. The grievances of the tenantry are un-
doubtedly substantial. The land laws have,
in the hands of heartless landlor DIS, become
instruments of cruel oppression. The ten
ant has been allowed no opportunity
to better his condition by his own
Industry and thrift. If he improved
his land and consequently raised
larger crops his landlord was sure to
raise his rent, aid if he failed to pay it evic
tion was certain to follow. 1t is no wonder
that under such a system as this the people
grew restive. But the mistake they
made was in allowing their grievances
to be taken advantage of by few poll
ticians of the Parnell school to promote the
scheme of Home rule. They might have
known that that was scheme which Eng
land would never permit to be carried out,
and that the linking of their grievances
with it would give the landlords an advan.
tage by enabling them to argue with a good
deal of plausibility that the ultimate aim Of
the agitation for reduction of rent was the
independence of Ireland.
On the other hand the government is
greatly to blame for not recognizing long
ago the justice of Ireland's complaint and
taking prompt measures to redress he1
wrongs. Before the agitation had taken on
its present aspect defects in the land laws
could have been much more easily remedied
than now when the agitati on has become SO
far political that any conc esson to it looks
like surrender to rebellion.
The blunders of both parties to the con-
test have contributed largely in producing
that complexity which the problem has now
assumed and which makes it's solution so
difficult. Whether there is wise statesman
ship enough in the government to retrieve
these blunders and to formulate and carry
through policy which shall pacify Ireland
without lowering the dignity of England re-
mains to be seen, but the dissensions in the
cabinet are certainly not encouraging signs.
