This is campaign year, and already the several political or ganizations are marshaling their respective forces for the f iant contest tho ensuing fall t is easy to battle against nn open enemy, but the worst feat ure of the approaching cam paign will be that each organi zation will have to contend with foes within as well as without. We can now see political' breakers ahead, and every Democrat should make it his duty to assist in steering the party craft clear of threatening obstacles. , . ," The mission of the Scn will be to work for what it honestly conceives to be for the best in terests of the Democratic party, and it will labor faithfully to rtus end. Party interests first and personal preferences after ward, will bo its motto m tne future as in the papt. and it will adhere to this policy without tear, favor or nope ol reward. . Harmony and unity are the leading essentials to political success, and as this i Presiden tial year, and so much is at stake, nationally as well rs locally every Democrat, who is a Democrat from principle, should work for the promotion of these requisites to party suc cess, rather , than for personal preferences, it is a ngntas old as political organizations them selves, that any honorable member of a party has the in disputable privilege of aspiring to political preferment, and when he does so his party asso ciates are in honor bound to give his claims a fair, courteous and impartial consideration All things being equal, it is natural and proper that any member of the party should do what he can honestly and hon orably to advance the interests of an aspiring friend. Nomina tions secured in this way will be cheerfully accepted and cor dially supported by the masses. But nominations secured by the use of a corruption fund, by chicanery, intrigue or other dis honorable methods are not f ways accepted in good favjsH, and are always demoralizing The Sex will, perhaps, devote much space this year to politi cal matters, and will work zealously and faitafully for the best interests of the Democratic party. It will consider caudidly and impartially the claims of iUl political aspirants, and will not attempt to promote the interests of a favorite by disparaging the claims of his competitor, unless forced to do so in sjlf- defence. It enters its protest now against such a fatri j'al warfare; but if it come to tJt despite protest, the Sex will not stand silently by and see its friends slanderously derided, but will come to their aid, exacting "a-towth.fDra tooth and an eye for an eye " v -Locally, the Sirs will strive to be the same reliable home newspaper it has ever striven to be, and only asks that support commensurate with its merits.

Last Saturday the Supreme Court of Indiana very properly rebuked the Judge'who, under the great power which is grant ed courts for their protection that of imprisoning persons for acts of contempt caused the editors of two papers to be con fined in jail for refusing to re tract certain statements pub lished in their editorial col umns. The Court held and very properly so, 'too that the "public press has rights with which courts have no power to interfere." In rendering the decision the Court also very properly stated that- there is a limit of publication "beyond which self-respecting newspa pers should not pass," and im mediately added what is very true, -"that a self-respecting journalist seldom 60 far forgets himself as to trespass upon the right of the judiciary." So far as reputable newspapers are concerned, they can always be relied upon to uphold the digni ty of the courts and the majes ty of the law, and when a judge is improperly assailed the pub lication is apt to do sreater in jury to the paper which makes it man me juuge uguiust wuom it is made, judges are the creatures of, and are subject to law, and when they, through ignorance or for othee cause at tempt illegally to exorcise pow r which is theirs for their pro tection within certain bounds, they generally find out their mistake, as the Indiana judge did. ?

Congress is proverbially lav ish with the people's money. There are a number of abuses right in the two houses them selves whi -h ought to bo cor rected. One is the heavy ex penses for funeral junketing Parties when a member dies. It requently costs seeral thous and dollars to bury a doad: member and many of these oc casionsare little better as far as the fun goes, than an Irish wake rroper respect for the dead is well enough, but it can be shown in a much less demon strative and costly manner. Connected with this is the pub lieh-ing of the eulogies in book form. Each one of the deceas ed , members receive these tributes from both houses and they are made into an expensive book of which five or ten thous and copies are published, and nine tenths of them rot in the damp basement where thoy are stored. Another heavy expense is the payment of the expenses of contesting seats in congress. In a 1 ite case in the U. S. senate, where tho claimant had not even a show of justice on his side, it is said, his charges were over nine thousand dollars. It is very common for a contested case to hang until the very close of the session and then for th) sitting member to be usted. He of course has had his pay for the time and the man to whom his seat is given draws his back pay as if he had been in his seat all the time: So two men get the pay, or in other words the salary of one seat . is duplicated. . Contests are very numerous and a ma jority of them are on very slen der grounds. The knowlege that they can make a good thing of it whether they gain a seat or not offers a premium for this kind of thing. Con testants bhould pay their own expenses and then these cases would be very lev unless there was a good hope of success. These charges each session of congress amount up to a large sum. l he greater portion or. it could be saved wuhout any semblance of nf-reardly parsi mony or without derogating from tho dignity of the position of a congressman. Ir- acinus; mmiI Pr tlcc. Men do not always practice what they preach. Senator Stewart, rf Nevada is the ac knowledged leader of the free silver members or the United States senate. He is a million aire silver mine owner and as such he is of course in favor of the government buying and coiniug his silver. But his business transactions show he has no eonfidonee in the money which he is anxious should "be put into the pockets of other people. In the recorder's office ef AJcmetla county California there are" 'reCOTdt'd -twsatxfl ve mortgages in his favor. "In every one of them he makes the debts duo him both princi pal anil interest payable in gold coin, in anticipation oi a pos sible passage of a free silver bill is getting very common f r men to take obligations paya ble in gold. Ix Buck's county, Pa., the other day, an auctioneer knock ed down a horse at twenty-five cents and threw in a baiter to equalize the bargain and ease consciein;t, prouuuiy. atcu the mild "knock-down" of the auctioneer proved too much for the steed, for ho fell dead be fore the purchaser could do more than complete his share of the negotiation. .

VuwUe Philosophy. Edward von Hartmann, who is considered the greatest mod ern philosopher of Germany, ii in favor of the government tax ing all old bachelors over a cer tain age,-the revenue derived from this tax to be used in pen sioning the old maids. He thinks that such a law "would soon induce the old bachelors to enter the matrimonial bonds." " . Notwithstanding his great reputation as a philosopher, we do not think he shows good sound philosophy in his advo cacy of such a law. We have never known a marriage that was brought about by any kind of force, except the force of genuine affection, that was not a curse to the parties concerned. Love and not law should "in duce" men "to enter the matri monial bonds." , A man had better stand the anathemas that are heaped upon an old bache lor's head than to form a matri: tnonial alliance in which love is not the controlling influence. then again, such a law: as advocated by ; Edward von Hartmann might have a ten dency to defeat its object by multiplying the number of old maids instead of increasing the number of. marriages. This idea has been suggested to us by a lady, who after reading von Hartmann's ideas on this subject, said that if she .were certain of getting a good pen sion ior remain id tr sinwrio, ane would not tie herselt to any "hateful roan on earth." Of the two evils, we are certain any sensible woman would choose a pension rather than marry a man she did not love. Marriage is the natural rela tion of men and women. When either remain single it is seldom from choice. It is generally because they have been unable to consumata an alliance based upon love and they have too high ideas ef tho-sacredness of the marriage'relation to form a union just simply to keep them selves from being called old maids and bachelors. No greater curse could befall any country than the passage or a law having toe its object, tne forcing oi men ana women into matrimony. Tin tongue is a very unruly member. It is the curse of many a man, of many a house hold, of many a community, of many a church.' It is a terrible thing whon it ropes eut its slander that carries with it the sting of death to character. A slanderer is a bad man at heart, and deserves the severest con demnation and even sharp pun ishment. He is the theme of the satirist as well as the object oi denunciation In the Chris tian Scriptures. All of the .treat poets perhaps have dealt with this enemy of the human race. We know that Spencer, Shakespeare, Byron, Switt, Scott,KVwperaodTThompson, have all had something to say in regard to it. Some of the revelations of tha census will ttartle a good many people. For instance, there are now more than half a million almond trees actually bearing in the United States; there are hundreds of thousands of bearing cocoanut trees; there are more than a quarter of a million olive trees, producing truit equal to the best Meditcr ranean varieties. - 1 here are more than half a million bear ing banana plants, 2,000,000 bearing lemon trees, 4,000,000 orango trees and 21,000,ooo Pineapples. And the value of tropical and temi-tropicaljf ruits grown under th American nag is nearly j.u.wm.wu. "Wur do men who can' take jokes, often try to make others take them?" Possibly they believe . in monopolies. They are like many others in this world who delight to tread upon the rights of others, but if some one treads upon their rights they howl vociferously. They are not charitably inclin ed, and will not accord to their fel'owmea the same privileges they claim for themselves. The whole internal machinery of a man who will give jokes and not take them needs re adjust Commencement season is approaching and the encyclope dias as well as the brains of near and dear friends are being ransacked to furnish materia for the essay whose depth is always greater than its origin auty. Canary birds sing their best in to jruVtlllc-l with tobacco smoke NVw Lines and Active Compe ' tiou. It is the live town, the wide awake, the aggressive, the am bitious, the enthusiastic village and city that "gets there," to resort to current slang. jJTltis the dead town, the sleepy towtf, the , self-satisfied in different, disunited, don't-care village or city that has grass growing in its Btreots, that shows empty thoroughfares ot traffic and idle clerks and lounging draymen.and desola tion and poverty." Whenever the mildew of sloth and callous- . ness falls and fasten upon a town, then Ichabod is written on its banners, tne bats and owls begin to , taka uptheir quarters in the great warehous es, and the birds ot prey hover around to get their pickings while the sleepers are abed. if ever there was a time or . push and go and gat up and get, it is the present. The live ousiness centres are like bee hives. The plans for reaching wider fields of conquest are laid calmly and'cunningly and cau tiously. Tho multiplying . of active agencies of traffic and the earnest energy of the men of business are all brought to bear upon new conquests and a more sweeping reach into the regions beyond. The great arteries of trade are opened wider, the wisdom of. spending money for more money is un derstood and practiced. ' borne villages and cities act upon the principle so wisely planned by ancient Berne. That great city constructed roads of such solidity and excellence tbat to this day, after mors than two thousand years, they are firm and serviceable. These great highways were straight a-lIllS 1H1I HI la III III 1 24.1 1 LIIH ' F -- i. . .-I -.,. .. S - aV j.

Thames. , These roads are to be seen now after the lapse.of more than sixteen hundreds years. Cities now in the Unite J States construct the iron roads and put upon them the ponder ous engines and the long trains of cars, and these roads for thd most part constitute the great highway of trade. iho bye towns multiply these feeders. They uss the water way and railway as fast as possible. cut the more constructions of railroads will not alone do the work. The locomotive engine is a grand piece of machiuery ' but it will draw no traffic with out steam ia its boiler. The cities and towns may have every natural advantage and even construct numerous roads, but something else must be done. 1 rade must be invited and trade must be sought. The rivalry increases with the mul- Uiplyiugf joads. The mon- tne energy and activity aro- equal to ail demands, and the inducements and advantages equal or surpass all competi tion. Durham is excellently situat ed for growth for an increase of commerce for a more ex tended trade. But' every ad vantage, every opportonity must be utilized and improve i. Let the whole town pull to ire til er, and let broad iduas and un flagging energy mark the ef forts ot all.
