Tbs organs are eonaUtent. They are more concerned in a question of juris diction in South Carolina thanjjjpy are in tbs cold blooded murder of an in- offaading citizen.

He ought to ask a democratic congress to grant him a diroroe from rheeimr. Ms. Hexes says be will lurils Colonel Billups to can ram the district with him. This is an example that Dr. Felton mlgbt well follow. He might also follow the example of his leader OoL Thorn ton, who will not hesitate to meet bis opponents on the stump. We know fr a certainty that the refusal of Dr. Fel ton to meet Judge Letter has excited Col. Thornton’s indignation. Maxtoh Mabels unfolds his tale. It pins little Abe Hewitt in the chair in which we were polite enough to seat him the day after the consummation of the electoral fraud. Ale ought to retire from politics, and the country wouldn’t feel theetnain If One B-liao.t were to swap off bis ear bo be and go back to the land of the marmoset. tbb on r ton ta tbb Siam From all parts of the ninth congres sional district comes the cheering in formation that the action of the Gaines- eille convention, in nominating Colonel Joel A. B llnps, receives the most en thusiastic endorsement of the people. The fact is demonstrated that he is as popular in the mountains as in the loweV end of the district, and the gen. oral impression is that he will have liuie difficulty in defeating Bpeer at the polls in November. The nomination of Colonel Billups is not only considered the best that could be made under the circumstances, but the best that eonld be made under any circumstances, and in making a campaign against him, the independent candidate will find himself greatly embarrassed, provided he limits the canvass to the abuse of conventions and their results, and if he.goes beyond this, it will not be necessary for Colonel Billups to make any exertions. W. are aqxions to discover upon what grounds Mr. Bpeer will claim the tuffrages of the people of the ninth. He is mot a better man than Colonel Billups. He is not a purer min. In short, he is not the snperlor of the democratic nominee either mentally or morally, and is not nearly so well qual ified to represent the people. We sup pose, however, he will devote himself to attacking the democracy, abusing ihe organization and denouncing con ventions, but with this sort of thing the people have grown familiar—even to disgust They are able to estimate the animus of such abuse. They know that a hatred of conventions by any ambitions person springs primarily from the tact that conventions have not teen proper to vindicate their pu rity by nominating the ambitions per son, and they perceive dearly that un der the epedoua plea of tndependent- iam,an organised attempt to destroy and disband the demceratic party has been set on foot by these who believe that in. this way only can their greed for of fice be satisfied. We say organized at tempt, because it la well known that, previous to the fortunate nomination of Judge George* N. Lester, the inde pendent party in the seventh district eras more thoroughly and effectively Ths Felton partisans In the seventh district are drculeung a contemptible canard to the effect that Judge Lester v luoteered to prosecute the Colnmbua prisoners. It is needless to say that Jndge Lester was not oonnected with the case in anv shape or form. He was employed neither for nor against the It was stated in Tax CuasTtTtrrioit the other day that Colonel Billups wa„ born in Clarke county. He was born in Oglethorpe county. But, really, it doesn’t make any difference where he was born. He will make an excellent representative in congress, and will be elected. Karoxxs from eouUiern and m nth- west Georgia say that those sections will be largely represented at the o su ing fair of the North Georgia Block at d Pklr association. Toe troth la. that fa r In the number and extent of its ex hibits and in the crowds it will at tract, will be the moat characteristic exposition ever held to Georgia. The moat promises* democrats io the moth district propose to take the stomp for Colons, Billups. The people In every portion ol the district ere en thuaiaetio in behall ol the democratic candidate. With the election ol Bil lupe In the ninth end Luster in the seventh, the indtptndeut party in Georgia will be prsetlctlly deed.

The young men left by Mr. Willie Storey in .charge of the Chicago Times are making e very mysterious mudd out of e very plain matter.

Aa we approach 1880, we be lieve tbe democrats, the hnngry “outs” included, will naturally be drawn closer together. All will see that all tbe southern states are use may to ensure the election of a demo cratic president. The lea of a single one of these states might result in the election of Grant. All will see this i! they do not now, and we will be mnch mistaken if the tasks of tbe independent busy-bodies ere not greatly increased as tbe hour ol fiaal victory draws near. The men who doea anght to weaker, the only organization that can achien each e victory will deserve end will assuredly receive ell the punishment that the organiztiion an inflict.

Cpeon county ia in short the only “doubtful” county; and her manner cl selecting delegates makes a foreshadow ing ol her choice very difficult. Her democratic voters are to vote directly by militia districts tor their respective congressional choices. The election managers of the distric t ere then to assemble at the coart honse ior the porpoee of consolidating the vote, and selecting delegates to give tbe will cl the party in the county expression in the district conven tion. These delegatee are to vote first for the men who receives the highest number ol votes in tbe county, end if hie name is withdrawn, they ere then to vote for tbe men who received tbe next highest number of votes, end so on to tbe end. With parity st tbe ballot-bcxes no better wev could be devised tor ascer mining the will of the party. The county executive committee appoints me mane gets of the elections in the mi litia districts, and if that task is faith- tally performed, the plan is without a Unit. It is better then a primary elec tion in-its usual form, because it ena bles tbe voter to vote directly for his favorite, gives all tbe aspirants an even chance, and lets the voters dictate the action of their representatives under all circumstances within the nmge o probability, even to third or fourth choices. , , , lie themselves to U.
