Another Readjuster Speaks-He Tells
How Is il in southampton.
April -, 1881.
o The Editors Of the DiSpdtCA

u
April %, 1881.
10 The Editors Of the DiSpatcA:
In the semi-weekly issue Of the WIG of
the 26lh instant is found an article headed
Soulhamplon-Se Senator Mahone's Native
County Again Endorses Her Distinguished
Son." Here follows the proceedings Of a
meeting OF the executive committee Of the
so.called Readiuster party of southampton,
the sole object Of which seems 10 have been
10 pass the usual stereotyped, time.seryng,
aud meaningless set OF resolutions, en-.
dorsing and thanking him ttheir great sena-
tori for his noble, able, manly, fearless, aud
independent course in the Senate. This
done, their Committee on Resolutions
reached deep water by irving to give eX-
preston to the "p.ias ttey haze in him -;
but found they could not, so resolved TO
"stick to him TO man."
The writer OF this was a Malone man for
Governor in 1877, and a Resdiusler and
Malone man for senator in 1879, and feels
that he has right to speak for large nun.
Der OF his class, who have too much pride
for their native county 10 allow such ebul.
liiions as this, emanating from 30 small q
boy OF men, to so forth TO the world un-
challenged as the voice OF the people OF
Southampton.
On the contrary, assert, without fear of
successful contradiction, that all Of the
members, even Of the aboye-named commit.
tee as il existed at the time Of Mahone's
entry into The Senate, do not endorse his
course. and IL these resolutions were passed
unanimously IL must have been IN The alb.
seDce OF several members, or else very re.
cent vacancies have been to ill. One mem.
Der, at least, was so indignant when be first
heard of the corrupt bargain and "unholy
alliance Of his "great senator" with the
Republicans that be was beard on several
occasions 10 express wish that lust such
set OF resolutions as were passed at this
meeting might be offered, 10 order that be
might avail himself Of the opportunity lin
the event OF their adoption) OF resignng bis
position ana deserving the rotten and sink.
Ing ship OF this his once glorious party.
Again, am proud to be able to state that
the Democracy OF southampton Is of that
type TO a degree almost approaching upan.
imi,y--represented by Hancock, Hendricks,
Bsyard, Seymour, Lamar, Beck, Pendleton,
Hampton, Hill. Voorhees,, Wallace, Vest.
Johnston, aud csmpany-and that that
Democracy represented by Cameron, Lo-
gan, Conkling, Hosr, Dawes, Frye, Kellogg,
and Malone, Is nowhere TO be found here
except among the above named committee
and few OF their subseryient followers.
The idea OF the Mahoneltes seems TO be
fb Il q man, to be fearless, Independent, and
LIBERAL 10 politics, must necessarily ally
himself with the Republican party; aud TO
oppose this party Is Bourbon Democracy.
Very well; we accept the issue thus made,
end will proudly wear the title; and per-
hags we have nearly succeeded In tracing

toto nutshell-as follows:
We agree with the Dispatch that there
should be no change made IN The tine oil
holding the State Conservative Convention.
IL might have been better at first 10 have
named an earlier day than the 4th OF Au-
gust: but as that time has been selected'by
the State Committee. and Is known through
out the State, by all means let II sand. We
eau gain nothing by chance. Let the
canvass be short, sharp. and decisive AFTER
II opens. and every.puiposc VIII be accom-
pIished.
Then, TOO, we think the people ought to
lave a breathing spell after the meeting oil
lie ReSdjusicr Convention. The nOmina-
lions made by that Convention are sure not
40 please every one, and the dlSailec'ed
ones are very apt to come back.
Then, too, we believe the regular Demo-
ela,ic cause is daily Strengthening, ana that
The party will be the gamer rather than The
loser by not holding its State Convention
until August. So BY all means let us not
have any change. No party has ever yet
gqined anything by pursuing yaclilating
course. II the Democrats VIII do their
duty from the Attn OF August until election
day they need have no fears as TO the re-
suit,
