OUR friend N. S. D. Pendleton, ed
itor of the Berkeley Springs News,
has his trials, but he also has his fun.
A few weeks ago he was arrested by
Game Warden Dittmore and fined for
the rather innocent offense of shipping
a haunch Of venison out of the State.
The other day Mr.. Pendleton drove
out Of town sort o suspiciously, with
trunk in his wagon. Warden Dit
more followed him, and when the
trunk was billed by the express COM
pany the warden saw his opportunity
and seized it. He opened it with the
expectation of finding more venison,
but it contained only few brickbats
and some old newspapers. There is
no law against shipping brickbats in
or out of the State, and the laugh is
OF the Jealous game warden.
II is not illegal, We believe, to ship
game from one point in the State to
another place in the State, and if Ed
itor Pendleton wants to send US deer
or wild turkey in. the place of that
dinner that never came, the way is
open.

THERE are indications that there is
trouble ahead for Senator Scott of
West Virginia. He has never been
an idol of his fellow Republicans Of
this State, and he will have hard
road to travel for reelection to the
United States Senate. The Wheeling
brewer, Henry Schmulbach, it is an
nounced, will be a candidate for the
place, and as he has as much money
as Senator Scott, and probably equal
qualifications, he can put up good
fight. There are others, also, who
have their eye on the same place, so
some interesting episodes may be
looked for.

A GRAVE ISSUE RAISED IN ALABAMA.

In accepting the presidency of the Alabama const-
tutional convention Colonel John b. Knox presented
issue that the convention will do well to consider
with great and that should engage the attention
OF the whole South especially those States where
stitutonal reforms relating to the suffrage have been
adopted to be agitated.
AS remarked by another in referring to Colonel
Kuoxs address he makes it clear that he is strongly
opposed to constitutional provision that will place
a stimulus to secure education behind ignorant
colored boy whom such stimulus exists to promote
the education of the white hoy" ut has been urged
says he. "as a why this movement for a new
constitution should be defeated that we propose to
adopt suffrage plank which will offer to the negro
incentive to obtain education. while the child
the white will be without like stimulus because
protected in his right to vote without regard to the
density of his ignorance ! do understand that any
delegate to this convention is pledged any such leg
slation."
This idea raises serious question. The negro is
enamored of the possession of political rights and
Will strive diligently overcome the educational quail
hcaton in the way of his exercise of the right of suf
frage On the other hand, there is great iteracy in
certain portions of the South among the whites and
unless special incentives placed before this class
acquire education the negroes five years hence may
show higher percentage of educational progress than
the whites especially in proportion to their population
The purpose to place political control in the hands
of the intelligent people of a State a laudabe one.
But to accomplish this object there ought
elimination Ignorance is ignorance wherever found,
and it work its evil effects upon government
whether it is the heritage of the whites the blacks.
1t is poor policy to teach the white boy that he can
grow up in dense ignorance and yet have his voice
in public affairs. He should understand from the first
that Intelligence is required discharge properly his
duties to society The educational qualification for the
ballot is one of the best means of enforcing this
lesson.
