of whiskey, swallowed it. He then bet
SIS with the saloon keeper that he could

MAJOR DANIEL, the Bourbon candidate for Gov
ernor of Virginia, is the same man who made a
speech In the court house IN Greensboro last year
and advised the young ladies to ostracze all young
Republicans. lie said Don't go to church with
them; don't walk on the street with them I.
don't go riding with them; do not be seen
in any public place with them; they are not ft as
sociatcs for you"
We know nothing of the truth of the
above statement, taken from the Green-
boro' IN. C.) Old North State, but it is not
difficult to believe that there are Bourbon
leaders still in the South capable of the
cruelty and barbarism of such arguments
in political controversy. How shameful
that leaders of public thought should be
willing to control their followers by such
methods! Can there ever be real free
dom of thought, real emancipation from
the sway Of passion and prejudice in the
South while leaders like Major Daniel
resort to such appeals? Yet there are
Republicans in Virginia who hesitate be-
tween the broad Americanism, the cath
olicity, and freedom advocated by Col
onel Cameron, and the narrow proyin-
cialism, sectionalism, and heartless
tyranny over the mind championed by

The Two Fncfinna

The Washington Post, with tender
regard for the welfare of its political enc
mics, is apprehensive lest "the Demo-
cratic factions in Virginia" be united by
the impolitic denunciaton of Southern
Bourbons by Northern Republicans. We
have feared this ourselves. The Bour-
bons Of Virginia have been so courteous
always in their discussion of the Re-
adiusters and their leaders that the
latter may revolt at reading or
hearing Northern Republican crti-
cisms Of the former And then the
Post opens our eyes to the fact that the
Readjusters and the Bourbons are but two
factions of the Democrats We had been
impressed with the idea that the Post did
not like the Readjusters or recognize
them as Democrats. We are glad to dis
cover our mistake. We find the Post
rather likes the Readiusters, and recog-
nizcs them as the true friends of the
South" and, moreover, as n faction of
Democrats. Let that oracle of pure and
undefled Democracy speak for itself. 1t
says in its issue of yesterday:
Is for the Republican tail TO the Malone kite to
take up the old familiar strain of measureless
abuse OF the Bourbonsw Ii Is true that there il
bitter ieud between the Democratic factions in
Virginia. They use hard words and give hard
blows. But when the Northern Republicans go
into this family fight with their accustomed wealth
of eplthets their redundancy of false accusation,
and their accumulated stock of campaign roor.
backs; wher they reyile and Willy the best ee-
ments of Southern society, the men who keep the
wheels Of business in motion all over the South,
they certainly make n serious blunder. Long
practice has SO l0miliori2ed the Republican
party with the idea Of runr.ing campaigns in the
sectional groove that tho organs cannot readily
adapt themselves to the changed requirements OF
new conditions. They will learn, however, that
there is no party or faction in the south which
likes 10 hear tho South or her people traduCed By
outsiders. They win discover that there are pc
culiar aspects TO feud In political family, and
that strangers who espouse either side in such a
contest quite as likely 10 unite tile factions in
common defense us TO accomplish the object Of The
interference
The Post is edited by Northern Demo-
crat, true blue, yard wide, all wool, and
warranted to wash. He has vouched for
the Readiusters as Democrats. The Vir-
ginia Bourbons seem TO prefer an alliance
with the carpct-baggers, scalawags, and
negroes of the Republican party TO one
with the Readiusters. Cannot the Post
correct this? Did it not observe the
fiirtations between the Bourbons and the
Straightouts? The funniest thing in all
this Virginia business is that the Bour-
bons like the ReadjustorB and Republi-
cans very much separately, but hate them
unreservedly when they act together
They have sought alliances with each,
but declared each unfit for association
with the other At the risk of driving
" the two Democratic factions" Of Ni-
ginia together, the Republicans will con-
tinue to aid the Readjusters in their cru
tade against BourbOnism.

Innhlli,r nr thc Prosilient.

The subject of the inability of the Presi-
dent. and the possibility that the Vice
President NAV be obliged to act as Presi-
dent in consequence thereof continues to
be topic in some of the papers, There
being no statute on the subject, and no
prccedents to consult, IL seems to be one
of the few questions left solely to the
common sense of to-day for its solution.
The plain declaration of the Constitution
is that the Vice-President shall perform
the duties of the President at any time
when the latter shall be unable to per-
form them himself Butthere are no duties
TO perform now. The offices are filed
throughout the country, the laws are be-
ing executed everywhere by the agents
appointed under the laws for that pur-
pose, there is no Congress in session,
waiting for information or recommends
tons from the President, there is no
foreign or domestic war being waged re-
quiring the ommander-in-Chief of the
Army and Navy to be at his post. II a
pardon were to be recommended by the
Attorney-General, or if any department
head should find a presidential act neces-
sary, either of the persons in attendance
upon the President-General Swain,
Colonel Rockwell, or any other-could
quietly 50 inform him, and be by him au-
thorizcd to sign his name to the neces-
sary document. If the cattle thieves on
the Mexican border were TO embroil the
military forces of the two countries inn
mediatcly, and il should become
necessary for the President to dis
avow an unauthorized act of war or
to stand by some proper and defensive
act, those nearest the President could
convey to him the opinion of his Cabi-
net advisers, if they should deem it tneces-
sary for him to call the Nice-Presidcnt
temporarily TO the active performance of
presidential duties. There are two con-
ditions under which the Vice-President
could, without any statute, quietly enter
upon the discharge of executive duties
as provided in the Constitution. One
would be when the President himself
should declare his own inability for
the time being, and request the Vice
President to act od interim. The other
would be when, by reason of long uncon-
sciousness or hopeless paralysis or in
sanity, President should be prevented
from calling upon the Vice-Presi-
dent. In either of these cases the
Vice President would act by the unani-
nous consent Of the people. The whole
question is an impractical one. There is
no probability that any exercise of ex-
ecutive authority or performance of ex-
ecutive duty will be called for in any
matter of consequence during the Presi-
dents illness.
