should have no fears of the result.
In our opinion, Samuel J. Tilden
is irresistible before the American
people. Elected once and kept out
of office by what is now confessed to
have been a monstrous crime, his
appeal to the public sense of JUS
tice and right wouldb overwhelm-
ing. His nomination would sub
ordinate the tariff issue, and as it
should be, to the issue of reform in
the administration of the govern
ment. Instead of moving against
the Republicans, with an abstrac-
ton on which our own party is di-
vided and the general public at
doubt, we should under his lead
ership close ranks and declare for
clean government and a common
country against twenty years Of Re-
publican misrule, corruption and
sectionalism- - Atlanta Constitu-
ton, Dem.
"Spiritual?" "Spirituall' We
don't seem quite to catch your

aid represents you as asserting

say it again and say it slowly next
time. The dictionaries define
spiritual as ''incorporeal." Do you
mean that the nomination of Til
den would be very thin? A second
definition is "not material" A
third definition is relating to sacred
things" Do you mean that Til.

said to relate TO sacred things. A

POLITICAL NOTES.
A Good Plan.

Mexico has no political conven-
tons. The newspapers do the
nominating. The papers begin
discussion of candidates about a
year previous to the Presidential
election. Next they "postulate,"
or nominate certain candidates. At
the head of the paper will apear,
eve postulate" 80 and SO, naming
the journals choice. Then, on
election day, the voters assemble
at the polling places, and each de-
posts a written ballot for electors,
who are TO constitute the Electoral
Board of the State. The law stip-
ulates that the ballot must be writ
ten, and q table with paper and
writing utensils, is provided beside
the ballot-box, and the ballot must
be written and Immediately de.
posted under the inspection OF the
supervisor. Sometimes the voters
of the different parties will meet
few hours previous and agree upor
some candidate, but usually each
voter has made a choice of candi
dates without any pressure from
party machinery.-T-D.
