How editors are treated, or rather mis-
treated.

An editor should have glorious and hap.
py time in the world to come, for he is not
granted any cessation of labor in this ''sub-
lumary sphere" Rven when he forsakes
the tripod and retires from business with
the hope of living in digni6ed peace and re-
tirement, the people-the hard taskmasters
of those who have rendered them inestima-
BILE service-enter vigorous protest, and
insist that he shall still serve them, even if
it be in an inferior capacity. They require
that he shall submit to degradation and
serve them in the Legislature. Though his
sense of dignity must revolt at it, his pa
triotism and Democracy persuade him to
submit TO the vor popuH with philosophic
composure. These remarks were suggest
ed by seeing in the Greenbrier Independent,
that Col. B. F. Harlow is to be treated or
rather mistreated as above described.

A REPUBLICAN KILLED ON ACCOUNT OF
THE FORCE BILL.-MERIDIAN, MISS, July
25.-T. M. B. Cook, well-known Repub-
lican politician, was shot and killed near
Mount Zion, Jasper Co., yesterday by I'M
own persons. He was candidate for
the Constitutional convention, and made
an incendiary speech during the day on the
Force bill.
He was fond of appealing to race preju-
dices, and was not popular with either
white or black Republican leaders, who
disliked his turbulent methods, and also
accused him of treachery. His death is
probably due to his efforts to incite negroes
to violence.

Mr.. Reed himself once said: "a full, free
and frank discussion is the very life of in
telligent action" and rightly declared that
unreasonable and capricous suppression
of discussion is tyranny, whether done by a
king or by majority"
That was when Reed was struggling in a
minority where he will be again in the next
Congress, if he gets there at all. The
Democratic majority never suppressed dis
cussion; it was left for Mr.. Reed, the au-
thor of these remarks, to perpetrate in his
own person the outrage against which he
protested and which was never committed
except by him.

The Motiye Of the Lodge Election Bill.

The following extract from correspond
ent OF the Philadelphia Press, one of the
extreme Republican papers, reveals the
animus and motive of the advocates of the
Lodge Election Bill, aud shows their insin-
certify when they claim that their purposeIis
to secure fair elections. Its'purpose is dou-
ble-to destroy the prosperity of the South
and to perpetuate the power OF the Repub-
lean party by trampling upon the funda-
mental principles of free government. 1t
is the most daring attempt at Capitalization
and tyranny that has ever been attempted
since the foundation of our government and
should arouse the people to the danger of
Republican rule. The following is the ex-
tract to which We refer:- ' sse- f-
sit IS all very we'll to rejoice in the PROS
perity and growth of the new Northwest,
for there sound views upon the tariff gen.
orally prevail, and their progress does not
now interfere with ourselves; but the ad-
vance of the South is to a great extent at
our expense. Her cotton mills compete
with those of the New England and the
middle States, and her furnaces are supply
ing pig iron at rates which make it impos-
sible to run those of Pennsylvania. If the
Democrats had never been allowed to re-
gain control of the state Governments of
the South, Northern capital would never
have embarked in the development of
Southern coal and iron; and the surest and
speediest way to put stop to this COMPETE
ton from men who are our political enc
mics, as well as our commercial rivals, is
IN 1yI,
the Lodge election law. They won't like
it, and some of them will be fools enough
to make trouble about it; and if we can once
more get them into the condition they were
before 1876 we won't hear any more about
cheap iron and cheap cotton goods from the
South. They will have other things to
think Off

FRAMED FOR THE MANUFACTURERS.

He declared that the bill had been framed
in strict compliance with the wishes, or as
the phrase was with the demands" of the
manufacturers. 1t was neither decent nor
honest, just nor humane. He could con-
ceive of nothing more illegal, more undem-
ocratic, more defiant of the principles of
free government, more outrageous to the
ordinary sense of justice aud humanity or
more huniliating to the spirit of honest
craftsmanship than the spectacle presented
10 the room of the committee on finance,
filled with clamorous crowd demanding
higher taxes, and telling their stereotyped
lies about the higa wages which they pay
as contras.e ed with the pauper labor of Eu-
rope. Mr.. Vance went on to arraign the
republican party for the evils which he
claimed protection had brought upon the
county, and said: "These are some of the
prominent results Of your misrule and Of
the policy which you advise us to continue
and increase.
these be thy gods, o Israeli
"1f you are wise you will worship them
no longer, but rest assured that renewed
sacrifice on their affairs will not save you.
Nothing will help you but to obey the in.
junction of the prophet, Repent aud depart
from your idols, and turn away, every one
of you, from all your denominations. ~
He went on to quote from Mr.. Blaine's
letter to Mr. Frye, and said that the I'M
mistakable wisdom of what that distins.
uished man had said illustrated the wisdom
of what he had left unsaid. If it were i'm
portant to extend American trade to Cen.
trail and South America it could not be uu-
important to extend it to the European con
tinent, which in wealth and population
was ten times greater. If free trade with
the people of the Latin races were desirable
and profitable, no reasoning could show
that little free trade with the people of
Tegtonic blood was not also desirable and
profitable. s-.
Mr.. Vance's speech received the compli-
ment of close attention on the part Of a
majority of the democratic Senators but
the Republicans generally left the Hall,
leaving but or to listen to Mr.. Vance.
The truth is unpleasant to them.
