Our esteemed neighbor claims to have
fully solved the problem of the succession
of the Vice President to the functions OF
the Presidential office. Il thinks that an
application to the Courts by any citizen,
setting forth the fact Of inability on the
part of the President, and asking a man
damus requiring' Mr.. Arthur to assume
the duties of the presidential o.f1ce, would
bring the whole question before proper
" constituted tribunal which could de
termne whether or not the fact Of inabil-
ity in a constitutional sense existed, and
if so afford the proper remedies
This does seem like quite a simple and
easy way out OF the difficulty, but the
questions arise: TO which Of the coprts

Mr.. Harris and the Convention.

We publish elsewhere a letter from
Hon. B. G. Harris, the President of the
late judicial convention, addressed to the
Democrats of st. Mary's county, and pub
lished in the last issue of the Beacon Mr.
Harris thinks that Judge Magruder was
really nominated by the convention, and
should be recognized as its nominee.
While we do not pretend to assert that
the Democrats of the several counties of
the circuit will go at all amiss in solidly
supporting Judge Magruder, we are Ger
tainly surprised that Mr.. Harris should
persist in the untenable position involved
in his ruling at Marlboro.
If there were strict analogy between
horse racing and the proceedings of nom
mating conventions, as Mr.. Harris seems
to think there is, then his position would
be correct. But such, as we understand,
is not the case. That a majority shall rule,
is understood to be fundamental princi-
PIE of Democracy. When, therefore, a
Democratic nominating convention meets
its purpose is to ascertain if majority OF
its members can agree upon candidate
Tor the party support Though one can
didate be voted for at time, no nomina-
ton can be said to be made until the ma
erity of the convention shall have given
him their approval, which is evidenced
by their affirmative votes, whether by bal
lot or otherwise.
But Mr.. Harris cites the rule of the
House of Representatives as an authority
for his position. If the rules of the House
of Representatives had been adopted by
the convention as the rules for its govern
ment, and the vote in question had really
been By ballot, then Mr.. Harris's position
would be correct. But neither of these
facts are true. No special rules had been
at that time adopted, and the vote upon
which Mr.. Harris's ruling was made was
not by ballot, and at no time were more
than six ballots cast for Judge Magruder.
The motion to vote by ballot had not thea
Deen adopted, anu the question put 10 the
convention was "Shall Judge Magruder
be the nominee of this convention 2"
Upon which the yeas and nays were or
dered, and resulted in seven votes in the
affirmative and seven in the negative. 1t
was then that the President declared
Judge Magruder the nominee We won
der that Mr.. Harris should make this error
in his statement, as, in the debate which
easued over his decision, his attention
