Mr.. Sherman.

The pressure upon Mr.. SHERMAN is great.
and may yet result in compelling him to
run this year for Governor OF Ohio. The
fact that he does not desire to run is evil
dence that he considers very dark the pros
poets OF Republican success next wear in
the race for President OF the United States.
IL he thought the Republicans could elect
their nominee for President next year, Mr..
SHERMAN would risk the race in Ohio this
year. But he does not think so. He
no doubt snuffs danger afar off. He
~ TOO sagacious not to see that at
present all the signs point to Demo
cratic success in the battle OF 1884. Even
General MAHoNE's followers in Virginia
refuse to be known as Republicans, though
they are either Republicans or nothing so far
as national parties are concerned. They in
sist upon 1t that they are "Liberals," Of
Readiusters," and not Republicans. Mr.
SHERMAN Is not anxious to be defeated 10
the Presidency, and the efore is not anxIo,l
TO run for that office.
But could he be elected Governor O
Ohios We doubt 1t, though we consde
him the strongest Republican in the State
But we suppose he does not much doub
that he could carry Ohio. lie may over
rate his strength at home; but he has n,
reason to be afraid to test his popularit,
there. We conclude as we began that h
may yet be induced to take the field I'm th
Buckeye State.

Hendricks and Mcdonald.

The Little Rock Gazette SAYS OF the Ar
kansas senator's recent speech
The Gazette is not authorized to speak
for Senator Garland, but is satisfied that in
mentioning Mcdonald he but expressed a
conviction now held 10y large number Of
the most sagacious Democrats, and even
Republicans, that il the Convention were
held the present year Mcdonald would OBJ
tain the nomination. The conditions may
change hereafter; but Mcdonald is to-day,
as he has been ever since 1880, the logical
Democratic nominee"
That is to say, as MCDONALD ought to
have been nominated in 1850 and would
have been nominated but for Mr.. Hen
DRICKs's refractory conduct, he (MCDON-
ALD) has claim upon the Democratic party
for the nomination. Not that Mr.. HEN
bricks was present in Cincinnati during
the National Convention OF 1880, but that
his friends, carrying out his wishes.
would not allow MCDONALD to accept
the nomination. For our part, we
do not acknowledge the force Of the
claim. No man has any claim upon the
DVhVCiatiO patty. but sulCl! IL SuCll
claims are ever good that OF Mr.. TILDEN
was good in 1880 up TO the time of his de-
clination, and that of Mr.. HENDRICKS be-
came good so soon as THDEN declined to
allow his name TO be used In the conven-
ton. MCDONALD IS a good man, and we
would vote for him with much pleasure il
he were nominated; but we don't think
the Democrats owe him the nomination.

Political Points.

The Georgia Democratic State Commit
tee has issued brief address calling Tor a
full vote for Governor at the special elec-
ton, whether the Democratic candidate has
a competitor or not. The address says a
full vote ais necessary to keep well to-
gether the party organization, for we can
not foretell how soon every Democratic
vote may be needed"
The situation III Georgia, says the At
lanta Constitution. is altogether loyely-as
lovely. that is to say. as it can ever get to
be As long as there are not enough Offices
to 90 round. and as long ms an overwhelm-
ing majority Of the people continue to give
the cold shoulder TO q handful OF men who
have been trying for several years to seize
and possess themselves Of the Democratic
party.
The Mobile Register says: The truth IS
the Democratic party in the South stand on
a more solid basis than ever. The pros
poets for victory in 1884 are in themselves
sufficient to hold it together without tax
ing into consideration the influences OF as
ISOLATION, the effect OF the memory OF past
struggles. and the opposition to Republic
cansm in every shape and form. indie
pendentism is not plant that can thrive in
southern soil as long as that soil has any
remnant OF the tares OF Radicalism.

The Debt settlement.

The regular Democrats OF Virginia are
certainly pleased that the debt question has
been taken out OF politics. They profess
nothing In this respect that they do not
feel. But IL must he recollected that this
is no new profession on their part. They
did not wait for the Supreme Court OF the
United States TO render It's decision as TO
the constitutionality OF the RIDDLEBERGER
bill before declaring II TO be their
purpose TO fight no more battles IN
Virginia upon the debt question. In
1881 the voters decided for the second
time that they would pay no more OF the
public debt OF the Commonwealth than the
Readjustcrs proposed to pay. No sooner
had the second decision been rendered
than the Democratic papers began to de-
clare that they had no wish nor usposi-
ton to continue a hopeless contest. Less
than two weeks after the election OF 1881,
Colonel TON WHrTEHEAD's paper. the
Lynchburg AdUdnce, came out rs follows:
"There will never again be a contest
over the debt question. That is now 4
matter for the Republicans and Readiust-
ers.,
The Richmond Dispatch, commenting
on the above, sand:
SIN word. the Democrats Of Virginia
must hereafter be national Democrats. We
must get rid OF local issues. We wrong
the grand old national Democratic party
not less than ourselves in bathing upon
such questions. We wrong the honest
Readiuster Democrats Of Virginia, and
particularly those OF the Valley ana tne
Southwest. Let us hereafter fight only
the Republican party, and so compel every
man TO show his coiors. Then an election
In Virginia will mean something"
This, remember, was in November, 1881.
There is, therefore, no foundation for
the charge that the regular Democrats oil
Virginia did not until recently declare
their purpose to acquesce in the debt set
Element favored by the voters. The fact Is,
as shown above, that as soon as the elec-
ton OF 1881 was over, the Democrats at
once made il known that they had turned
all the questions connected with the pub
lie debt over to the courts, and intended to
stand to and abide by whatever decision
the Supreme Court Of the United States
might make in regard to those questions.
1t is clear, therefore, that the recent de-
cision Of the Supreme Court OF the United
States IN the case OF Ant0ni rs. Greenhow
has not caused any change whatever in the
tone of the Democratic papers. All that
they have done has been TO avail themselves
of the occasion OF the rendering Of that
decision for repeating what they had often
said before. Ii is also reason why their
determination not to discuss further the
debt question must be held to be wise
conclusion.
The Mahoneites talk rs if the Democrats
had Just now come to this conclusion, and
were not to be trusted. This is the role
which 1t is necessary for them to play in
order to hide from the Democratic Read
iusters the fact that the CoalitionistS are
Republicans in everything but name.

The Tariff,
Richmond, April 18th.

We are certain that Il tremendous ma
jority Of the Virginia people are Demo-
cratic and want "a tariff for revenue only"
II there are any Nirginians who want
protection" the Democratic party is no
place for them. They will have 10 get it
IRON the Republicans Culpeper Expo
nent.
OF course the present condition OF the
Democratic party in Virginia is all that the
most devoted iree-trade lunatic could de-
sire.
The Governor, two United States sena-
tors, the Supreme Court Of Appeals, all the
State officers are Republicans. With this
fact staring us in the face. our Culpeper
contemporary tells all the Democrats who
agree with George ID. Wise and John S.
Barbour to go to the Republican party.
All the Old-Line Wings OF Richmond,
Lynchburg, Augusta, Bedford, Loudoun,
and Albermarle, the staunchest Democratic
constituencies in the Commonwealth, are
told to COVE do not need your votes or
your services! Our Culpeper friend doubt
less remembers that a few years ago the
wedding out process was tried the result
is known TO the world.
Tens OF thousands Of the best party
men in Virginia believe in tariff for reye-
nue. which will give incidental protection
to struggling manufactures. These tens OF
thousands do not and will not follow the
lead OF Tucker, Carlisle, and Iiurd. These
men hold in the main the views of Randall
Hewitt, VOORHEES,, and Brown yet they are
Democrats and do not propose 10 be read
out OF the party. In Virginia we hold
every question subordinate TO the one OF
dellverance from the thraldom TO the Ma
hone-Arthur coalition. First drive these
Stalwart Republicans and their black allie,
from power, and afterwards adjust ouI
differences on the tariff and other impor.

The Lynchburg Advance reproduces the
STATES article headed "The Great ISSUE"
and endorses IT in the following terms:
"This Is sound all over. 1t is Just the
talk OF other issues that nerved us in 1869
and the war-cry that led us 10 victory in
1873. This style Of politics called Malone
ism here and something else In other States
is fast dying ont. The people Of Georgia
have put flat rocks on the frogs in that
State, and they have ceased to jump, and
we trust this fall to engage in the same
laudable work in Virginia. There are sew
era stout bull-frogs in the pond in Nir-
GINA, and they have 80 Ear gotten from
under the stones, but we trust this fall
that the people will rise in their might
and fasten these loud-mouthed, amphibious
politicians TO the sod"

The winchester Times quotes the New
York Sans platform, which we printed
last week, aud comments rs follows:
"This is tersc expression OF the tariff
views we have already advocated, and
comes from paper that speaks for the
Hon. Samuel Randall and Democrats who
have advocated a protective tariff. Many
of the leading Democratic papers OF thus
State have expressed their accord with
these views"
And nearly all Of them will in due time
do so, we doubt not.
