A WONDERFUL POLITICAL JUMP.

Blount News Dispatch.
 The Jeffersonians, who met in Blocton on the 14th instant and indorsed or recon mended Truman H. Aldrich as Ga fit and proper person to represent the Ninth Con- gressional district of Alabama in con- gress," displayed wonderful acrobatic qualities as politicians. Every schoolboy who reads American history knows that the theories of government promulgated by Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson were diametrically opposed to each other. The first named did not believe much in republican form of government, but on the contrary advocated centraizstion with the chief powers vested in few "political bosses.' On the contrary Thomas Jeffer- son advocated the fitness of the people for self government, and we are today in- debted to him for a governmen that is the admiration of the civilized world. As MT. AIdrich is disciple of Hamilton's politi- cal views there can be no affinity between an honest Jeffersoniau and T. H. Aldrich. It is an unnatural coalition that the people of the Ninth Congressional district, claim ing to be Jeffersonians, should eschew.
