Honesty In Politics.

The Democratic governor Of Delaware
has given to the Republican candidate
for sheriff in Wilmington the commits
sion which he won by a majority of nine
votes; and it was very proper thing
for the governor to do. The commission
was to be given upon the face of the re-
turns, the question of the honesty Of the
election not being up for consideration.
The dispute as to that must be settled
in the courts. The Democratic candi-
date contends that he was fairly elected,
and if SO. he can show it and get the Of
fee but he could not ask the governor
to give it to him when there appeared
to be majority for his opponent. The
Democratic officers who have been
placed in power 10y the late political
revolution will long maintain the ascen-
dency of the party if they will act as has
the governor of Delaware in this case, in
strict conformity to The law, no matter
which gains or loses by it at the time.
The governing power is sure to suffer in
the end by the abuse of its authority.
It was this which brought the Republi.
can administration OF the country to
grief. Generally it was ready to adopt
any means TO secure a temporary advan
tage. In the great contest for the pres
idency between Tilden and Hayes, the
Republican leaders apparently Won the
game; but in reality they lost it. Theil
lawlessness brought them fruit that has
turned to ashes on their lips. The re
suit Of their conduct has given politi-
clans lesson which they should never
forget. It proves anew the declaration
that honesty is The best policy, and that
it applies in politics as well as in trade

Barbarous Treatment OfTWo Little Children
"A Young Woman Searching for
Her Misunderstanding a Bisa-
John Eberthal was held to the criminal
court in Chicago urder $500 bonds for
cruelty to his children. The story Of the
mans barbarous treatment OF his wife and
children was retold by several of his
neighbors. Mrs. Annie Dixias, who lives
in the Same house with the Eberthal
family, related that she had once seen the
prisoner tie his two little sons, ono nine
and the other eleven years old, back to
back by the arms with a clothes line SO
tightly that their arms were swoolen to
twice their natural size. He also tied up
leg of each one, and then made them
crawl up and down stairs for his amuse-
ment, by beating them with ropes end.
This torture lasted for four hours. After
the boys were unbound. one of
them ran away and stayed two days.
On his return the inhaman father chased
him up an alley and fired a shot at him
from q revolver, the bullet going within a
few inches of his body. Tho mother, a
frail, frightened creature, had tho courage
only to nom out few words about her
wrongs to the justice, but did not dare to
look at her terrible husband. Another
witness testified to many cruelties he had
seen the man inflict upon his children.
The two little boys sat in the back part of
the court room during the examination,
covering and sobbing with fright st tho
sight of their father. Justice Kaufman
advised the prisoner to get position in q
menagerie Of wild beasts when he got out
of the penitentiary. He also declared that
is was marvellous thing that tho neigh.
bors had allowed the atrocities to DO COM
mitted in their midst so long By the brutal
husband and father.

Decline Of BOssism.

Arthurs patronage and Hubbells
money failed to win in Ohio. "Stal-
wartism" did not take even in the
Western Reserve. The Independent
Republicans of Pennsylvania have re-
belled against the Cameron Machine,
and even Folger can not save Conk
ling in New York. The people of
Ohio were aroused-they saw what
was before them-they went into the
fight and won. And the people of
Virginia can do the same. They have
the power-will they exercise it, or
will they stay at home and let it be
trs nsferred to other hands?
The Debt question has been settled
SO far as legislation can do it. 1t is
not an issue in this canvass. We have
nothing to do with the views of can
didates on readjustment it is a past
issue. What we want to do is to de-
stroy Mahoneism in Virginia. Ma
honeism is "Bossism" - Stalwartism'
-"One-M Man Power" 1t means that
one man shall rule the commonwealth,
and shall have the right to sell the
State to any political faction that will
give the highest price. 1t means that
trading in politics is all right, and
that one man and his followers shall
have the profits OF the trade. Itmeans
that the bargain between Malone and
Arthur shall be carried out, and that
they shall divide the spoils between
them; that Malone shall deliver Vir-
GINA to the Stalwarts, and in return
shall have all the federal patronage he
wants.
The people can defeat this scheme
but, at this time, only in one way
The election of Massey is the defeat o
Malone, and with the Boss defea
there will BIZ an end of Grantism il
Virginia.

A Plain Case.

The Alexandria Gazette has this to
say to those Democrats who hesitate
about supporting Mr.. Massey. 1t is a
plain case The man who at the ap-
preaching election fails to vote for Mr..
Massey casts half vote for Mr. Wise
that is for General Malone. Two
hundred such men will therefore give
one hundred votes to the General; and
in a close election one hundred votes
are worth more than thousands under
other conditions. And vet there are
men calling themselves Democrats,
and who, if the Democrats succeed
next November, of which there is ev-
every probability may hereafter want
Democratic support, who say they are
too good Democrats to vote for Mr.
Massey. Fortunately for the State
there are but few of them.

makes a manly protest against the
course of its party in consorting with
"a political adventurer' who, it says,
has betrayed every honorable princi-
pie in his greed for power, remark
ing -

That Pledge.

Last fall Malone sent to most if not
to all the coalition candidates for the
Legislature the following paper to be
signed by each of them and returned
to him:
81 hereby pledge myself to stand
by the Readjpster party and platform,
and to go into caucus with the Read
juster members of the Legislature that
meets at Richmond, and vote for all
measures, nominees and candidates to
be elected by the Legislature, as the
eau ,us may agree upon.
"Given under my hand and seal
this = day of September. L. s.
Never before in the history of poll
tics was such pledge required of
party candidates. They were not only
to stand by the platform as adopted
in convention, but were to vote for all
measures and men that caucus mi ht
thereafter agree upon. A simple pledge
was not even sufficient; he must have
it in writing, with the signature and
seal of the Legislator attached. Vote
for all measures No matter whether
in violation of the Constitution they
were sworn to support or not, or
against the best interest of the people
and the State.
Some of Mahone's friends remon-
strated with him for requiring this
pledge when the party itself did not
require it. But he did not listen to
their circumstances he was the Die
tator; he issued his orders, and they
were obeyed, save by a few men who
were bold and Independent enough to
be governed by their own ideas of
right and wrong.
Col. Frank Ruffin, an original Re-
adjuster, who with many others left
Malone when they found he was lead
ing them into the Stalwart faction,
says in a published letter that Malone
gave as the reason for requiring this
pledge 1--WE quote from the letter. ::
"tfat many of the men to be elected
were so venal that if not bound by
this (sealed) instrument and held up
to its obligations they would be bought
by our opponents" We do not be-
lieve there was as much corruption
among the "men to be elected as Ma
hone would have us suppose, although
it is true one of the members of the
Legislature has been recently indicted
for selling for the sum of $4,000 6
position assigned to him by the "Spoil'
Committee of the Caucus. h.

About half-past twelve o'clock this

house belonging to John P. Lonas, and
before its ravages could be stayed the
building with its entire contents were
destroyed. The fire was also commu-
nicated to Mr.. LIS dwelling house, the
fine and costly Lutheran church, and
a building owned by Mr.. Spengler, al
of which are now mass OF shoulder
ing ruins. Mr.. Lonas, among other
things, lost very fine piano, costing
$500. The greater part Of his furni-
ture was saved The church, we IN
dersJand, was fully insured, and the
other buildings to about half their
value. AS soon as the fire was dis
covered the writer of this mounted a
horse and started to New Market for
assistance. The distance is seven
miles, and the boys composing the fire
company of that place responded SC
promptly that they we're playing on

Their presence saved the store Of j
