The North Carolina Congressional Va
CnnCy.

The death of Congressman elect Poole, of
the legislature of an apportionmcnt bill.
The district in which Mr.. Poole was elected
was changed by that apportionment, one
county being taken out and another added.
The governor has ordered special election,
and has, as We understand it,'ordered it for
the new district. This is against law and
precedent. Mr.. Poole was chosen for given
congress, viz, the incoming one. The old
apportonmont, though changed for future
congresses, could not, in the nature of things,
be changed rs to this one. A state represented
under two different apportionments would
present the curious spectacle of having two
representatives for the people of some coun-
ties and none at all for some others. Take
the case of North Carolina If the governor
docs not change his proclamation, he will be
ordering an election in county which
is already represented by the member
of the adjoining district, for and
against whom they voted. But at
| lne same Ilmo nc Will DO refusing 10 anOtner
county in the old district any share in the
election on the ground that it belongs to
another district, for the representative from
which they had no vote. Again, the new
census gave North Carolina an additional
congressman. This made it necessary in the
absence of redistricting bill to choose a
member at large. Accordingly North Caro-
lima chose one for each of tho eight old dis
tricts and ono AT large. Now, sup
posing the other seven congressman chosen
by districts should die. Then, according
to the governors idea the new congressman
would be chosen according to the new ap-
portionment This would give North Caro-.
lima her entire delegation of nine by districts
and the ono at largo would still be entitled
by law to a seat, having been elected in strict
accordance with law. This would give the
state ten congressman, while the apportion-
ment act says she shall have but nine
The election of Gen. Garfield to the senate
in 1879 made just such a case. His successor
was elected after new distroting of the
state, but at that election only those counties
voted which constituted tho old district,

Tho parade Of our German fellow citizens

from the Germanic race, and they move
generally along tho line of their native
latitude Everywhere, however, thoy are

they arc for the most part Industrious, law

tributed their full share of tho blood in the

They havd been coming here for two hum
drcd years, and helped to win an indepcnd-

characteristics cannot be changed or work
any harm unless they or wo mako them sub
jects of quarrel. In n nation like ours, which
freely admits aliens to citizenship, we must
expect to see love of home and fatherland
manifested by all, and must not be in haste
to compel conformity as to habits and Gus
toms. All that we can ask is that all shall be
good, law-abidng American citizens.

Australian correspondents of the London
papers are unanimous in favor of the annexa-
tion of New Guinea an d such other South Sea
islands as are not appropriated by other
powers. They tremble lest France should
seize Now Guinea and turn it into penal
colony. Months ago II gentleman connected
with the diplomatic service outlined the
course that would be pursued in regard to
New Guinea by the English, using the Ian
guage quoted below:
s England will not consent to the proposed
annexation of tho great island of New Guinea
by one of her colonies, because that would be
establishing dangerous precedent, but she
will add it to her empire in due course of
time nevertheless. New Zealand or some
other Australian colony will start the bali
rolling by trying TO annex the island in tho
name of the crown, aud report the action to
the home government. The action will bo
rejected, and the people living in tho colo
nies will set up u howl on some pretext or
another. The home government will take
notice of the clamor after while and take
possession of New Guinea in proper form,
and that will be the end of it."
! Events thus far have shown the diplomatic
to be something of prophet Tho pro-
gramme mapped out has been religiously car
ried out up to the clamor point, with u pros
pect that it will go through to the end ac.
cording to the advertisement.
