The Gubernatorial campaign, will
il is stated, be more interesting soon
than at anytime since it opened and
as the fight progresses, it is daily be-
coming more apparent, that it is one
Of the bosses against the people.
Senator Martin and those who seem
ready to follow him are daily becom-
ing more active and the people,i if we
interpret correctly the advices re-
ceived through our exchanges from
many sections of the State, are daily
becoming more FESTIVE and more dis
posed to resent the interference of the
Junior Senator in the contest. There
ought to be no question as to who
will win if the people are true to
themselves.

The basis OF representation in the
State Democratic Convention is a
matter as to which there will be a
difference of opinion when the State
Committee meets in Richmond on
the 25th of this month. AS far as is
known the candidates bave no de-
cided preference. In 1889 the basis
was made one delegate for every one
hundred Democratic votes. There
are those who think one delegate to
every one hundred votes cast for
Bryan last year should be the basis,
and they will seek to have the num-
Der OF delegates reduced. On the
other hand, there are numerous ad-
vocates of what might be called
''hurrah" conventional big body of
people.

The Capitol city of the State of late
has had an epidemics of fires which
come occasionally to all communities
and which cannot be accounted for.
1t is not claimed that they are the
work of firebugs as all of them started
in the day time, and if there is any
reason to suspect incendiarism it has
not been given to the public. Fires,
like misfortunes of every kind, never
seem to come singly and no better
explanation seem to have been given
for the ugly gaps which have been
made of late by fires in the beautiful
city.

An article recently published by
Professor Leon G. Prince, of Dickin
son College, Carlisle. Pa, contains 6
vigorous defence of the right of Sc
cession in the following:
But there was another and phil
osophical reason to support the prin-
ciple of secession. 1t is to be found
in the fact that, since the parties to
the contract were sovereign States
there was no superior tribunal to
which the question of State rights
could be referred. The Federal courts
were not competent to pass upon it,
because they were the creatures OF
the Union and the Union was in turn
the creature of the States. In the
event, then, of a dispute between the
States and the Union over the ques-
ton of respective powers, should the
Union, the creature, be permitted to
say how much power it received, or
should the State, the creator, deter.
mine how much power it conferred?
In all logic and justice there can be
but one answer. Manifestly the Sc
cedipg States had the right TO go
They had a right under the Constitu-
ton and they had further right OF
revolution, expressly affirmed by the
Declaration of Independence as being
Inherent in all communities and upon
which each of the thirteen Slater
has justified it's secession from the
Mother Country in 1776.
The question of secession of course
is dead issue and the South has
long since accepted the results of the
conflict of 1861 '65, but the writer OF
the article being Northern man, it
is refreshing, as the Richmond Dis
patch very justly says, )" to see man
OF bis environments standupso boldly |
in vindication of the South's cause
and the great principle for which the
South fought-stand, indeed, so fear 5
lessly for the truth of history.
In the light of such evidence nc
Southern man ought ever TO sa,
again that the South fought for what
she believed TO be right II was bet
ter FOR the South and the country al
large, as Professor Prince says, TO-
the conflict to have ended as it diI,
but it is duiy we owe to the mem
DRY of those who made the fight, to
see that justice is done them, by rro-
the truth to our children as
given in he article above whenever
the opportunity is presented.
