OLYMPIA "Courier:" "Kirk G.
Ward, editor of the Seattle "Post,"
was delegate from King county to
the Republican Territorial conven.
ton and took part in all its delibera.
tions and therefore penned willful
falsehood when he wrote that Mr..
Brents is not the choice of the Re.
publican party Of Washington Ter
ritory and that his nomination was
the result Of secret caucuses, packed
primaries and packed conventions.
In common with good many other
small beer politicians in King county
he is filed with the idea that that
county is Washington Territory, and
that If Seattle does not control she
delegate nomination the will of the
people has been thwarted. They
will learn better as they gain age
and experience. The "Post" has
declared its intention to support Mr..
Burke for delegate. IL will, among
other things, point to the fact that
Mr.. Burke was elected probate judge
in that county, last election and upon
that will talk glibly about the great
popularity of the Democratic candi-
date. The fact is that Mr.. Burke
owed his election to Republican vot.
ers who determined to punish a
member of their party for an act Of
political treachery not half so fla
grant as that just committed by the
editor OF the post" and the latter
will find that HIS action will make
votes against him just as was the re.
suit two years ago. We could go
further and throw a food of light
upon the causes that operated TO
produce this sudden flop of the
"Post," and they would not be at all
creditable to the parties to the con-
tract, but we do not imagine that
papers influence, one way or the
other, will make it necessary. II
ever delegate was nominated by
"ths people," Mr.. Brents was, this
time. In all but two ot the coun-
ties that gave him their votes the
"county rings" were for bis oppo-
nent, Mr.. Allen, and it was only be-
cause the voters, who are usually
manipulated by the politicians, re-
fused to ratify the schemes Of "the
machines" and turned out IN body
and defeated them, that Mr.. Brents
was nominated. This every well in.
formed man in the Territory knows
to be true, and the "Post" deliber-
ately stated what was untrue in say
ing what il did.

TnEasLuNDER or The SOUTH.

"Herald" of the 10th September
publishes leading editorial, warn
ing the "solid south" that its solidity
is a source of weakness to itself and
to the democratic party, and that If
Gen. Hancock is beaten his party
will owe its failure more to this than
to anything else. 1t says: "We
desire to call the attention of south.
ern men, Of southern white men, Of
southern white men Of intelligence
and influence, sincerely and anxious.
ly desirous to benefit their states,
once more to what we conceive to be
the disastrous blunder which they
are making. They pretend that the
south is solidly democratic. They
maintain this pretense with such
vigor that possibly they will make it
practical reality next November,
as they have done in previous years.
But. can they not see that it is the
"solid south" which is beating the
Democratic party? That when
Hampton, one of the best of the
southern men, and as wise as any of
them, urges the Virginia whites to
remain solidly with the Democratic
party, and stigmatizes as unpstriotio
any southern man who leaves that
party, he puts very forcible and
effective argument in the mouths of
a thousand Republican speakers?
Can they not see that every appeal
in southern journals 80 stand fast in
d,moeratic lines and every denunci--
alton of independent candidates in
the south makes republican votes in
the north?"
Then follows an argument to show
that the south is not solid in defense
of any great or vital principle, but
only through prejudice or passion.
II has no Unconstitutional federal
interference" TO complain of. "The
carpet bag and bayonet rule has
been swept away, nor can it ever be
70 established" AS to national pol
icy, the southern planters and manu-.
facturers want protective tariff
such as the republicans promise and
have for many years maintained.
The south insists on protection for
sugar and rice, which are great inter,
ests; and southern manufacturers Of
cotton and wool, industries now
growing into. large Importance, also
want protection. And the south
w,n,s internal improvements, which
are feature of republican policy.
Hence :he "Herald" says: "lf the
southern states could elect General
Hancock and a democratic congress
they would defeat their own wishes,
and General Randall Gibson, OF Lou.
isiana, and General Hooker Of Miss
issppi, and Senator Garland, of Ar
kansas, and Senator Bailey, of Ten
nessee, and multitude of other
southern men would find themselves
once more in the ridiculous attitude
in which they were in the last con-
gress, of vainly trying to catch the
speakers eye to get in their little
bills and hearing northern demoorats
like Gen. Bragg of Wisconsin tell
them to go over to the republican
side If they want government pap"
And If they should not elect Han
cock they would be where they have
been heretolore--in "solid" minor.
ity, and "wuuld have still further
alienatcd republican sympathies afd
made it still more difficult for repub-
lican leaders to do for the south
what part of tho south wants" And
finally, 1t is said with great force
that ",he democratic party began to
60 into the minority as som as the
south became solid, and it Is proba.
