The Hannibal Journal says In regard
to the recent city elect Ion, there:

colored voters deposited straight dem

democracy show proper appreciation.'
That la the doctrine. A negro who
freely aud voluntarily votes tbe demo

of persecution aud ostracism from peo
pleol bis own race, and from while

One of the difficulties about tbe pr!
mary election system for tbe selection
of candidates Is, that in many cases tbe
man who "rustles" the most, or "bus
ties" the most, whichever is tbe better
term, gels the most votes and tbe nom
loatlon, whereas, it the electors could
get together and compare notes another

desire to say a few words in the Inter
est of the democratic party, and, heuce
of good government. This county

Above all things for the fittest man for

reason why he should vote for bim.
Tbe. very tact that he Is one or both ot
these may have in it an element of dan

" be: "Who will make tbe most effl-
cleut and useful officer?" This ques
tion answered the ballot should con

points to its record aud it bas reasou to
be proud of it. In every department

THE PROBATE JUDGESHIP.
Editor. Intklmuknckk: A little
mora than a year ago my lather died
leaving his estate in debt some $5,000.
At Hie instance of Judge Xeiiophon
Uvlaud I was appointed administrator
at tbe request ol the hoirs, and by his
advice and assistance as lar as the law
would permit Ii'un, in about one year I
was enabled to pay this largo inilemeu
uess and lilt from tho estate a burden
which had weighed my father down
lor years. In a single transaction in
Judge Kylaud's court, though his decis
ion was in a measure a criticism upon
inv action in the doing of whicli I
thought I was right, lie saved lo this
estate nearly $1,0U0. From this the
leople can see what interest no takes
in the business of his court.
For his kindness aud interest in me
and my lather's estaleM shall always
be grateful. I am confident that there
is no estate passing inrougu uis nanus
that does not receive the same caro aud
attention. He is able, honest, indus
trious, sober and efficient as a judge
and in my opinion ust sucti a man us

With such intelligent action as this at
St. Joseph, and with such a declaration
of principles as should be called forth
by the real purposes of tho party, the
democracy of Missouri should.and will,
iu November next, march on to such
a victory as it bas not achieved for
many years.
Tbe light should not be renewed In
the 7th congressional district. If news
papers or individual democrats favor
some other man than Mr, Morton, well
and good, that is their right, but let
tbem talk up their cboico and uot try
to iujnre Mr. Morton. The latter
course will conduce lo harmony, tl e
former to dissension, which if it docs
uot injure tbe final congressional nom
inee will tend to lower the democratic
vole on Ihe state ticket. This is a
time in which uon-essentials should be
made to give way to tbe supreme pur
pose of dethroning the corrupt aud ex
travagant republican autocracy which
now relgus at Washington.
