Proposed New Fire Company By an

Those who propose organizing the company
are youths, ranging in ages frcu 16 e -to. 21
years. It is their intention to purchase the
engine formerly used by the Hornets, if suf
ficient means can be raised to send it to the
shops where it was made and have it thor
oughly repaired, and then to start it out un
der an entirely new management. ii
We hope the new company will meet all
the desired encouragement and be organized
at an early day. Everybody rexgnizes the
importance of having an efficient fire de
partment in our city. The present compa
nies are entirely so as far as they go, but we
need more persons who will rush to the res-
cue when property is in danger; and we be

this company will do it. ,

The Judicial Question.
Mr. Editor : Probably no election ever
held in the State of North Caroliua, is so im
portant in its nature to the people of tin
9th Judicial District, and so momentous in
its' results, lis the one before thetlt in Aagost
next; for at'that time they are called Upon
to decide who shall be their Judge for the
next eight years. Under our old constitu
tion, the power , of electing the different
Judgs, was conferred upon the Legislature.
It was thought advisable when that instru
ment was framed, to withhold the privilege
of voting for a Judge, from the people, for
the reason that a. man. called to preside over
a court of justice, who held his office by vir
tue of the popular Vote, would or might be
biased in his opinions; and instead of hold
ing the scales of justice in his hands, know
ing neither Plaintiff or Defendant, he might
lean to tbe side of hie friend?. The Consti
tution, therefore, inertly withheld this power
from the people, and gave it to the Legisla
ture, who tlectcd the Judges for life, sub
ject, however, to impeachment for either
malfeasance or misleasance in ouicc.
The frame rs of our present Constitution,
saw fit to change this provision, and give to
the people alone, in their sovereign capaci
ty, the power of choosing their Jndgpp at
the ballot box. This change was submitted
to and accepted by the people, and by vir
tue of this, has become a paft of the organ
ic Jaw of the land. As the people made
this a part of their Constitution the peo
ple atone can abhiil it. It is .beyond the
power5? -w-fef-Asemblyf 20
art 4, of this Constitution, provides that the
Judges of the Superior Court shatl lie elect
ed for a term of 8 years. 1 I t did not provide
that they should be ektied fr . life.; Had
this been done, a Judge, oven though elect
ed by the -people could feel that he was
aboVe the peobleyattd did Hot hold bis office
f by their favor. I be result of the soundness
of this policy is now apparent. What haye
We before na 'three candidates already in
the fields soliciting the euffraares of their fel-
ow-ciiissens. and calling upon their friendi
and admirers to do nil in their power to have
them Called to wear, the ermine.
ToWiifhih Conventions, were called, who
sent delegates to Ihe County Conventions
then county conventions sent delegates to
the District Convention, which assembled
in Linconlon. junl David Schenck received
the nominalibn for Judge of the District,
as Ihfe repTuseotativc of the Conservative
party. It is not my intention to enter into
the merits or demerits of that Convention.
I care nothing alout how Mr. Schenek got
the nomination, I only look at the results.- -And
what is the result? the news of the
nomination of Mr. Schenck had scarcely
been heralded in the adjoining counties,
when an independant candidate, claiming to
be the representative of the same Conserva
tive party, announced himself, and bared his
claims to the office of , Judge," upon the
rronod that the Convention at Lincolnton
was not a true exponent or the wishes oi
the people throughout the District, but that
the nomination-; of Mr . Schenck -had been
obtained through fraud; t'Of this,' wo know
nothing, nor do we care. As faras the object
of this article is. concerned we, wi 11 say
further, that we expect to support Mr.
Schenck, if nothing better can be done
But what is of eminent interest to us is,
that there are two candidates, representing
the Conservative partyW; the. field. J.his
will, as a matter of course, divide that par
ty. The majority ol Conservative votes in
this District, is not large enough to run two
men in the same party Tor the same otnee.
It is all ft delusion to expect that! the Radi
cal vote will center upon an Independent
Candidate, in order to defeat tbe regular
nomineee of the Conservative party. Their
history in the past, shows very clearly that
iheycate nothing for men, bat that Jhey ate
aeVOieu TO Uieir pany. utu purijr mcuo-
ures arc at stake, they will sacrifice men,
monev. orT anything else, to ; carry. them;
through." We even see now that a .conven
tion of the ISepubhcan party lias oeen can
ed, to meet in Charlotte oc tbe 20th . pros.,
for the purpose of bringing-their standard
bearers in the field. And will that, parly
nbminate G. W. Logan for the , Judgeship
o, tWaJJi8treWI answer afCif as; the
leading nien'of t'ucir party have said against
this man, even though their, ablest lawyers
haVe pronounced him utterly incapable f of
ta&iug in a tegai puiui, jet, ti uuyau ia uic
man to effect their purpose, they will place
the plume io his hat.' Suppose he receives
the nomination of his party, will be receive
their unqualified support 1 Undoubtedly
for their organization is too' thorough toad-
