There are party extremes and bit
ter political resorts on both sides. Il
the laws could be so made and en-.
forced, any man should be made to
answer for trying to infuce politi.
cal or official voter by threat or
intimidation, or by bride in sending
for a man and by persuasion or offer
of Office or by other inducement try,
ing to change his principles. Yet
this thing has become not only a
habit but popular political tactics by
certain influential party leaders in
Martinsburg. Nor does 1t happen
in election times only, but is "a CON-
mon practice when any selfish end
is to be attained in public business
or municipal action. A councilman
owes Il note, and council is called
upon to elect an officer. The hold
ers of the note give the man eight
hours time to pay the note or vote
for their nominee. A man puts a
driver on his wagon and a patron
says, "your driver is Objectionable
be is the son of a criminal, you cant
do my hauling" Low is no name
for it. POLITICS is the source of the
evil, and in most instances its name
is Bourbonism

When Grant was dead Mr.. Jeffer
son Davis was asked for some ex'
preston upon the life of the dead
general. He kindly responded in
the negative, preferriug to let the
dead rest in peace. Now let Mr.
Davis himself rest IN peace. His
enemies will do so, but not his
friends. Extremists are standing
on their muscle in every section oil
the South, and are applauded by
their friends for honoring the mem,
DRY of their hero with their fists.
Those who opposed him in war are
silent over his grave, but his nearest
and dearest friends will parade his
memory down the corridors of Time
to the last jumping off place into
Oblivion. Respect for the virtues
of the living and the memory of the
dead are cardinal virtues in a
brotherhood of citizenship. History
unto all ages will draw the dividing
line between Truth and Sentiment
and mark the milestones of Fact Will

The suicide of Franklin B. Gowen
in Washington Sunday was a shock

The suicide of Franklin B. Gowen
in Washington Sunday was shock
to the country. An able and eloquent
lawyer, a prominent man in the
legal, social, and railroad world, will
all the comforts of life, and sudden
~ put an end to his existence, is q
mystery. Another prominent mar
suddenly disappeared in Philadel
phia last week, j, G. Ditman, paper
dealer and bank president, wortl
100000. The theory is that bust
ness worry and inordinate efforts
towards the qualification of Their
ambitions, drove them to despera
ton on the spur of the moment. Il
is warning for the business and
professional men Of America to g,
slower. Mr.. Gowen was a powerful
prosecutor and broke up the Mol,
Maguires in their day. 1t is also
claimed that as a railroad officer he
held labor down with heavy hand
during the period of strikes, and
some look upon his sad end as a
matter of retributive justice.

The point about the Silcott defal
cation which the Democratic politi
clan is apt to forget, is not that the
surplus has been reduced nearly
100000 by the steal, for to steal il
human according to political nature
The stealing part might be forgiven
if there were any signs ofrepentanct
for past uucharitable conduct to
wards the Republicans. They were
charged high and low with fraud and
corruption, branded as rascals and
turned out with moral kick and q
personal cuff. But the books were
found straight, every cent accounted
for, still on general principles they
remained rascals. Now comes with
the first mar to 60 under new and
Republican Congress. not only a
steal OF tens OF thousands of public
money, but grave Irregularities "a
worthless bond, long since expired
by the negligence Of Democratic
Speaker; members drawing over
pay and illegal pay, defaulter and
forgerer gone and no effort made to
apprehend him, committee smooth
ing matters over and saddling th.
loss on the people. Not one out OF
thousand party men has word to
say. We respect their feelings, but
they never respected our feelings as
Republicans. Men like Mills and
other great Democratic leaders warn
their party that unless this loss is
made good to the country they will
hear of it later. 1t is not the money
that the country will miss f; but the
principle is unfair, that one party
should be made to walk the chalk
line of public account, and the other
have Its way strewn with roses from
the penitentiary to Canada, with a
welcome motto held in every Repub
lican hand: "God speed " the de
parting thief, and preserve the feel
ings of his many well wishing friends

THE MARTINSBURG HERALD, SATURDAY, DEC. q, 1889.

1t has been matter of comment
here that the Northern press should
have displayed almost an entire alb.
sence of bitterness upon the occa-
sion of the death of Jefferson Davis.
1t is gratifying to all liberal minded
meu to know that the animosities of
the Civil War have so completely
vanished. In fact the character of
the population at the National Capt.
tai is SO cosmopolitan that the roof
of one hotel often covers the heads
of men from every State OF the I'm
ion and representing every shade of
public sentiment. These people
come in contact with each other aud
learn to know each other aud such
intercourse serves to correct many
errors OF opinion as well as to veal
away many prejudlces. The Civil
War has become a memory and the
men who fought on either side have
learned to respect the opinions OF
each other. The federal soldier
speaks with admiration of the brav-
cry and fortitude displayed by the
confederate upon thousand battle
fields, whilst the confederate speaks
the same way of the Union soldier
and his devotion to the old flag, and
his determination that the Union
should be preserved. Let us hope
that with the passing years this
feeling may broaden and strengthen
and that before the generation
which took part in the great Civil
War has entirely passed away there
may be none lett who will regret
that the great sacrifices made on
both sides have resulted in a restor-
ed and lndestructible Union.
