The DEMOCRATIC state convention in
Georgia could not agree on candidate
for governor, two-thirds vote being re-
CURED, and adjourned last Wednesday
without making any nomination. A ma
jority of the delegates united in an adj
dress recommending the people to vote
for Gov. Colquitt. Those opposed to
Gov. G. also issued a manifesto to voters
giving reasons why he should not be
elected. The republicans have already
issued call for state convention, to be
held at Atlanta, Sept. Z, when it is pro-
posed to place full state and electoral
ticket in the field.

THE DEMOCRACY MOVING.

The democratic county convention is
to be held at Jefferson on Saturday, Sept.
18th. 1t will be strange, indeed, if there
is not seen upon that occasion regular
cat and monkey performance. There
are so many rival candidates, and such a
variety of conflicting interests that it will
require more wisdom and skill than the
average democratic convention possesses,
to make anything like satisfactory NOM
nations 1t is not matter of much
concern to republicans, however, as they
have made up their minds to carry the
county this fall, and clean out the whole
democratic gang Reform is neces-
sary' in the management of county af-
fairs. The democrats have been in pow
er SO long that they have become corrupt,
and the people are growing dissatisfied
and demand "a change We make the
assertion on democratic authority. Il
the half is true that one faction in that
party says about the other as to its wick
edness and general cussedness, it ought
not to be continued in power another day
This fall the people will have an oppor
tunity to pass judgment in the matter
and, taking the warning factions at theil
word, will elect the republican county
ticket. So mote it be-

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY RUL-
ED BY THE SOUTH.

In the course of a powerful speech
against the policy Of secession made by
Alexander Ell. Stephens in the Georgia
state convention in 1861, he said {:
"What are we to gain by this proposed
change of our relation to the general
government I've haze always had the
control Of 1t and can get, If aoe remain
IN 1T and are as united as ace hare BEEN
We have had a majority of the presi-
dents chosen from the south, as nell as the
control and management Of those chosen
from the north" These says The Albany
Journal, are the words of the vice-presi-
dent of the late confederate states of
America. Did he speak by the card or
not? And if he did what ground is there
for supposing that Hancock would prove
an exception to the rule that northern
democratic president is run by the south?
The democratic party has not changed
in spirit since the days when 1T ruled the
country. Its course since it gained con-
troll of congress demonstrates that the
south is still its dominating element.
That section is as imperious in its bear
ing and as grasping in its demands as it
ever was. Any democratic president, no
matter who he might be, would be forced
to take his orders from her. But Gene
raj Hancock, by reason of his ignorance
of civil life and his inability to frame a
policy for himself, would fall an easy
prey to her wiles.

WHEN?
Detroit Post and Tribune.

When did General Hancock denounce
the kuklux?
When did General Hancock denounce
the democratic crimes in Mississippi in
1875?
When did General Hancock denounce
the "white line horrors of South Caro-
lima in 1876?
When did General Hancock denounce
democratic "bulldozing' in louisiana
When did General Hancock denounce
the methods by which the solid south is
secured.
While millions of humane people in
the country have been shocked by these
outrages and vehemently expressed their
Indignation General Hancock has been
dumb. Can the people trust man who
has been thus silent while the country
has been threatened and alarmed by
these Outrages?
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1880-08-18
FOOL FIGURING.

Hancock is as good as elected, accord
ing to The Madison Democrat, which has
been figuring on the chances. Here is
the way it cyphers it out : 1t says that
"Gen. Garfield will probably carry
Maine, Rhode Island, Vermont, Michi-
gan, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas, giving
him 46 electoral votes" Probably
carry" is good. 1t is a wonder that The
Democrat comedies even this much to the
republicans 1t next claims for Han
cock every state carried by Tilden IN
1876 by increased majorities," and says
that Z" in addition he will carry Pennsyl-
vania, South Carolina, Illinois, Califor-
MIA, Oregon, Nevada and Colorado. This
will give him 26S electoral votes" This
is more absurd than its estimate of Gar
fields vote. But the most stupid thing of
all is yet to come The Democrat classes
as doubtful states, New Hampshire,
Ohio, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Massa-
chusetts-55 electoral votes, with the
chances in favor of General Hancock
carrying majority of them" And this
is the way in which the democrats are
electing Hancock-on paper. There is
not one Of the states put down as doubt
full, which is not absolutely certain for
Garfield, and so are several which are in
cluded in the Hancock list. But it is a
pity to destroy these flights of fancy in
dulged in by democrats, SO long as they
are not destined to have taste of any
thing more substantial
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1880-08-18

The DEMOCRAT affects to believe, and
to derive comfort therefrom, that senators
Conkling and Cameron are in the sulks,
and are not going to do any political
work this fall. The Democrat is well
come to all the satisfaction it can get
from this source. So far from being in
active, or unmindful of the campaign
the senators named are heart and soul in
the work and will be heard from in a
way that democrats will not like. Sen
ator Conkling is booked for several
speeches in Indiana and Ohio, and after
the election in those states in October, he
will turn his attention to the November
states, notably New York, where he will
put forth his best efforts for the success
of the ticket. Senator Cameron, in his
own quiet and effective way, will do all
he can do in the same direction. If The
Democrat is basing its hopes of Hancock $
election on such a rickety foundation as
supposed hostility on the part of Sena-
tors Conkling and Cameron to Garfield
and Arthur, it may as we'll throw up the
sponge at once.

WHY INDEP ENDENTS WILL
NOT VOTE FOR HANCOCK.
From the Boston Herald Qnd. J.

We wish to have some light thrown up
on the method General Hancock would
adopt in handling the questions that are
now uppermost in men IS minds: not what
he would do if he had been President
five terms or three terms ago. Would he
or would he not veto a bill that had a
tendency to unduly initiate the currency?
Would he favor or oppose reform in
the present tariff =? How would he set
tie the antagonism that is growing up be-
tween the Federal and the State courts?
In what way would he maintain the right
of every citizen to have his vote honestly
counted? What he would do as Presi-
dent to reform the civil service? To
these and similar demands for intelligence
General Hancock makes not the slightest
response. This is fatal error; all the
more so that the party of which he is the
candidate has no sustained record on
which the public can depend. 1t has
been on one side of the fence at one con-
vention, and vaulted completely over it
before the next. 1t has favored free trade
and protection, hard money and soft
money; continuance in office during
good behavior, and division of the spoils
among the yictors; a free and honest
ballot, and shotgun campaign. Which
of these alternatives will they take up if
they get into power? No one can tell,
for there is no administrative record to
appeal to. IF General Hancock is too
timid to lay out civil policy for his
party, those who vote for him will be
simply taking leap in the dark. 1t
may result satisfactorily to the country,
and it may be just the reverse. Both the
good and evil of Mr.. Garfeld's admins
trations could be predicted in advance;
while Of General Hancock's nothing can
be predicted, except that, from bis un-
willingness to speak, it may be judged
that he is influenced by men who are
much more likely to go wrong than to
90 right.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1880-08-18

THE FATAL features in the democratic
situation, says The New York Evening
Post, is that, no matter what may be in
scribed on platforms, no matter what le-
gends transparencies may bear, no mat
ter what mass-meeting resolutions may
declare, no matter what Ell, .uent speak
ers may say, no matter wat profuse
promises may be put forth, the party is
compelled to confront dismal story of
its incapacity, treachery, neglect and
broken pledges, in respect to all the i'm
portant living questions Of the day.

STATE INSTITUTIONS.

Elsewhere in this paper we publish
well-written article on the management
of our charitable and reformatory insti-
buttons, from The Dunn County News.
The writer argues that the present sys-
tenn of management is defective, and
calls for change. A glance at the rec
ord will convince any one that he is cor
rect in his position. He cites number
of cases where the state has been swim
died through the present system, that
could not have happened under another
which he outlines.
1t is lamentable fact that all sorts of
stories have been set afoat charging mis-
management on the part of the con-
ductors of several OF our state institu-
tons. Especially is this true of our in
sane hospitals. If there is any truth in
the reports the fault we apprehend lies
with the system of management rather
than with the managers themselves, at
least so far as they relate to the insane
hospitals Each institution is controlled
nominally by board of trustees, but in
reality the members of the respective
board knows very little of what is going
on about the hospitals which they are
presumed to have charge of. They re-
ceive under the law no compensation for
their services and it is not to be expected
that they will look very close after mat
tiers. A physician is appointed superin-
tendent whose duty it is to supervise,
not only the medical department and the
treatment of patients, but the farm, the
laborers and a thousand and one things
as we'll That all this is too much for
one man to do and do it we'll no one will
doubt Our insane hospitals are enor-
nous institutions. The state has mil
lions of dollars invested in them and
thousands are dispensed annually. Each
one contains population equal to a
small village, and as before stated the du-
ties devolved upon the responsible
head of such an institution are
too varied and arduous to be en-
trusted to one man. The other charit-
| able and reformatory institutions of the
state are not as large as tie insane hos
pitfalls, and perhaps work better under the
present system, but if any change gov
erning one is beneficial, the same
system ought to work corresponding
| benefit to ALL
The article referred to recommends the
creation of board which shall have
general supervision over all state institu
tions of charitable and reformatory ma
ture, and be the general purchasing
agents and financial managers of the
same-the care of the inmates to be left
wholly to the superintendent, who will
! devote their entire time to the duties for
which they are especially fitted.
1t would seem that some such change
in the law as indicated would insure tc
the state better system of management
! for its institutions, and also would result
in saving of thousands of dollars an.
nually to the taxpayers.
