There seems to be 4 considerable contest
Ger. 1t is evident that the case ought to be
governed by one of two considerations.
Either the promotion ought 10 be made from
among the cooncls of the Army or it ought
to be given TO the ranking officer on duty in
the Signal Corps and familiar with the
duties, Captain II. w. Howgatc. As is well
known, The SUNDAY HERALD Is opposed to
capricious promotions by which junior OIL
GERS are elevated over their seniors, depriy-
ing the latter of the only reward-and gem
orally slender one--wlich can follow long
and faithful service. Such promotions have
notoriously been governed oftencr by favor
than by merit. But the relation of the Sig
nal Corps to the Army is at best peculiar and
abnormal. Many doubt whether it ought to
be a part of the Army, and its expenses
charged TO the Army budget. If it is not To
he treated as Il part of the Army there would
be more reason i'll ignoring the principle of
seniority in selecting its head, except so far
as the principle could be applied to officers
already in the Signal Corps. Captain How
gates passion for scientific research and his
familiarity with the organization and admin
istration of this bureau give him peculiar
advantage for keeping up IFS efficiency and
increasing its reputation. We believe we
only voice the general verdict of those who
know him in expressing the belief that he
would make an energetic and capable Chief
Signal Officer. But, as We have indicated,
if the question of Army rank is to ocontrol the
selection, it must be restricted to the colonels

What Is the use, again, of the Republican
organs and stump speakers pretending to
narrowing fear that if the Democrats should
ccme in they will pay the rebel debt, or
rebel war claims, or the value of
the slaves, and generally destroy the
credit ol the country and bankrupt the
Treasury and the taxpayersl Not one
of them believes in this silly stuff, which yet
is staple of the Republican canvass. Every
man outside OF a mal-house knows that the
Democrats pay taxes, own Government
bonds, and are concerned for the credit and
prosperity of the country as well as the Re
publicans. Moreover, every man who has
watched the course of Congress under Reput-
lican and Democratic control knows that the
Democrats are, as a party, far moro economi~
cal of the peoples money than their oppo-
nents. The lobby, formerly so powerful and
corrupting in Washington, has absolutely
disappeared since the Democrats took control
of the House. But even if the Democrats
were bent on running the country and them
selves TO enrich lew thousand cX-save-
holders and other rebel claimants. how
could they possibly do sol Before the Con-
gress to he chosen this fall has completed its
first session the canvass for new Congress
will have begun, and if there should be the
least reason even to suspect a Democratic
Congress of any such insane purpose Ms is
charged the party would he swept from
power torcvur. When Republican stump
speaker threatens his hearers with the pay
mcnt of rebel claims those who are not alb
solutcly ignorant know that he is attempt
ing gross deceit for they know that unuer
our Constitution the people never surrender
themselves or their rights and property into
| the hands of any party.-Now York Ucraid,

his ability, the party led by Garfield, and
which has robbed tho people, tra,hpled upon
their rights, and flung them under the heels
of their former slaves and band of political
adven,urcrs and thieves. The southern pco-
Pile differ ON questions of governmental policy
and are solidly united against the Rorubi-

pendent, free, and enlightened people. They
take issue between themselves as to what
will best advance the public interests, bo.
cause they are n people of vigorous and in
dependent thought; and they unite in n
solid body against their opprcssors and

BEFORE another issue of TuE HERALD Maine
will have held her State and Congressional
election. Very few Democrats have any hope
of carrying the state for Governor But
we have confidence in General Buffers idea
that the contest will lie close, and believe
that whichever party wins will not have
large majority on the State ticket. If this
shall be the result it will be glory enough
But we have great faith in the ability TO
accomplish much III the Congressional dis
tricts. Two years ago the Democrats and
Greenbackers ran separate tickets in nearly
all of the districts, and in every instance the
Republicans elected were in minority. In
the First District Mr.. Reed, the Republican
candidate, had 13,4s3 votes, against ., 1888
for the Democratic candidate, and 6,3lS for
the Greenback candidate. He was in a
minority of Oyer > 900 votes In the Second
District Mr. Frye had II ,l3i. The combined
opposition was IL ,S0i votes, leaving Frye in
n minority of nearly 100. In the Third Dis
trict Mr.. Lindsey had ,373 votes. The
opposition combined polled If, 2lG votes, 4
majority "t nearly 5000 against the Rcpubi-
can candidate. Mr.. Ladd in the Fourth Dis
trict was supported by both the Democrats
and Greenbackers, and he had uEriorty OF
2,s2G over his Republican competitor. In
the Fifth District Mr.. Murch was elected 10y
plurality on the square Greenback issue.
This year there has been union of all the
elements against the Republican candidates
While there will he no fusion on the presi
dental electoral ticket, it is complete so fai
as congressman are concerned, and there Is
therefore a reasonable prospect that gains
will be made on Congressman. The fusiol
