EVENING EDITION.
rTHB SELECTION OF OBLEGaTlS
TO THE NATIONAL COW VENTIOW.
The Charleston News b Courier
the Atlanta Constitution, the Mobile
Register favor the election of South
ern delegates to the Cincinnati Con
vention without any instructions.
They think that they should be left
free and untrammelled so that they
can take the course that will best
unite tbe party and thereby furnish
the strongest guarantees of success.
Under the circumstances this will be
probably the wisest course. It is al
most certain that the South will not
vote for Tilden under any circum
stances. The opinion is widespread
and wisely founded that if nominated
he could not carry over half, if to
many, of the Southern States.
The Southern delegation will, there
fore, not be influenced in their judg
ment by auy pressure that may be
brought to bear by the Northern
Tilden men. The South has had
quite enough of him. He has no
popularity per se among the Southern
people, and it would be a very grave
error if he were to be forced upon
the country again as a candidate.
We agree with the Atlanta Constt
tution in this opinion:
The plain duty of the Southern States
is lo select their best men to represent them
in the Convention and to leave them with
out instructions."
Men ought to be selected who are
not "machine politicians1 who are
not seeking office and have no axes to
g'rindTland "who have at 'heart the
good of the country as well as the
success of the Democratic party.
True, honorable men should be chosen.
It sometimes happens that men are
selected as delegates because they are
men of fortune. We need not. say
that men should be chosen upon soxtye
other test of qualification. A man
might have money and be a fool or.
even corrupt. s Let the wisest moat
discreet," purest men possible 'be
selected, and then let them have free
scope to act for the best. The foi-
lo wing from the Charleston News &
Courier is ;in accordance precisely
with what tbe Stab has said before
"The Southern yote. and none othe,
will elect the Democratic candidate, aad
the South will be Ihe chief sufferer if tha
Republicans, win. While then tbe Southern
delegates should not dictate who shall be
the candidate, they should unhesitatingly
tell the Convention that Mi. Tilden cannot
carry the Southern States, and that the.
South cannot afford to" go Into the fight
with the certainty of losing." " j ;
The true end that should be sought
is victory. It will not begin to do to
allow personal favoritism, or sectional
dislikes, or .sentimentality to control
or influetice the choice of candidates.!
The man to be selected is the man
who can beat Grant or any Stalwart,
fomonrbther will be nominated bjy'
the Republicans. Who is the man ?
The Stab unwaveringly believe that
Horatio Seymour is far stronger than
any other Democrat. : He hasaIF of
the dements "bf success and no
other -man has them. Bayard fr
wVV, r .,
laxnrn
' instance, is popular in tbe Soatb
because of his high personal worth,
bis
constant
Bat
favorite in the South will matce him
weak in the North.-. After Sejmoar
probably Judge Field-would be the
moat available candidate. " We do not
r agree ilb onr arlestbn contempo
rary when it says that., "ibe man
worthiest of election is the matt ' to
nominate regardless tf any other bon
9ideration.n Tbis would prove fatal
as a general rule. In the particular
case in view it would not, for it liap-
pen. that Mr. Symoor i. .1 odoo as
worthy as apy other and 'the ;'GQ09t
available. In the matter ' of ". nomi
nating candidates it is wise b con
sider another question besides per
sonal worth. It is wise to inquires
can he be elected. In ppliticitvis Ob
ject is to have control of the govern
ment. Toudothis you must have
your tnea elected: To ' have them
elected they must be popular as well
as worthy. In ihe electiona held in
this country for President and other
officers it has turned out very often
that the "worthy" man has been left
I at borne, whilst the popular manthe
available man has gone into office. It
is judicious and proper and sagacious
that in seleoting candidates you seek
to combine personal worth with avail
ability. THE C6STOF FDBLICATION AMD
THE CABIPJLIGIf..
The Charleston News & Courier
has an editorial npon the extraordi
nary increase of expenses in publish
ing newspapers. It says that paper,
within a few months, has advanced
from 6 to 10 cents a pound. That is
to say, a paper that paid out $6,000
a year for paper must now pay
$10,000. Where is this extra 4,000
to come from ? None but the rich
papers can stand such an. increase.
Advertising is not as good now in
Wilmington as it was six or eight
years ago. The people in this section
of the State are probably not as able
to take a paper now as they were
then. The field ia North Carolina
is limited. You can only get so
many subscribers whatever may be
your efforts to extend your circulation,
and however you may incur expense in
making a better paper. If the Stab.
paid out annually double what it
does, thereby increasing its value in
some respects, it could not extend its
circulation in any proportionate de
gree. The number of accessible
readers is comparatively small, and
no efforts can increase it very greatly
if you look steadily at the question of
pay-
What then is to be done to meet
the unreasonable rise in printing ma
terial? The people, or some of them,
must have, will have a paper, daily
or weekly. They must have the
commercial, political and general
news. If publishers oannot get an
increase of.adverlising, and"a very
large increase of circulation," what
must tbey do to meet the necessary
expenses to be incurred in publishing
a paper that meets the demands of
fair-minded and intelligent people?
The papers in tbe North and in
many parts of the South have ad
vanced their rates already. Two of
the New York dailies have been con
strained to put up their subscription
rates. When sugar or bonnets r
ready made clothing advance the
additional cost comes out of tbe con
sumers out of those who eat and
wear. Is tbereL.any.good reason why
a similar advance Iff printing material
hr-the cost of publishing a news
paper, should not come out of the
consumers '"out of those who read
and enjoy and are profited in one
way or another ?
The Stab will rjeitherjjncrease its
advertising nor subscription ratesi 4t
presents We hope 'the price of paper,
&c, will r decline .-.before very long,
and thus obviate the necessity of an
increase. It is true that for sotoie
months the entire cost of the advance
is upon us, but we are unwilling to
resort to-unusual methods of meet
ing the difficulty nntil wevive seen j
that the advanced prices, are to-be
maintained. As Our Charleston con ;
temporary saysi,'
"This Is sure te bo an unusually active
year lo newspaper circles. Thousands
who pay no. heed to the press in ordinary
timey iresd; newspapers dillgedCjr during
the months when tbe President' is to be
nominated and elected.. The only thing
likely to check this is an advance in sub
scription rates." ;
i
The Stab will try to keep up to its '
jp re Bent standard as a newspaper and
to be efficient .in the approaching,
campaign. It will do this at the olid
rates if possible. Our friends ought
to appreciate our practice, and to
show-it by sending us subscribers for
the campaign.- We shall offer no
special rates, as we, do , this in fact

The Indians in this country have
but few friendf.. Secretary Sehurz
made a bargain, it seems, with tb
Uto Indians, but tbe terms did not
meet ihe approval of the Colorado
delegation, they regarding tbe terms
of that bargain as too liberal. That
our readers may see how generous
and munificent are the terms objected
to by the Colorado delegation we
copy the following from the New
York Sun:
'The Ulea are forced to surrender, in
this compact, about twelve millions or
acres of land, a large part of which, as
Scborz exulliBgly saya, is mineral land of
great value.- They are to be paid for it an
annuity of $50,000, which ia at tbe rate of
2 8-5 aerei fox a cent annually. . There ara
aboot four thousand Utes, so that,, as it; is
provided that the annaity aha 11 be per cap
ita, tbey would each-realizs one foor-tnou
sandth part of a cent annually for each
portion of 2 25 acres, or a total dividing
tbe f5O,00O into 4,000 shares of $12 00 an
nually. . ;
"The Colorado delegation hold that tbis
is quite too liberal; that the Utes will rapid
ly become millionaires under tbe arrange
ment, and instead or being enormous Teal
estate holders, as now, that they will simply
be converted into capitalists without bis
counterpoise of a severe income tax."
We do not detain our readers with
a statement of the changes demanded
by the delegation from Colorado
aforesaid. The Sehurz terms were
mean and illiberal enough in all con
science. The other terms are meaner.
ihe late iiishOD till tlavcn was
much addicted to writing very harsh
things concerning the South. He
made Atlanta. Georgia, a sort of
headquarters when in the South, and
took special pleasure in dipping his
pen in acids and in sending out ma
licious and cruel slanders npon oar
people. He rarely found anything to
commend. He seemed full of spites,
and did all be could as a bishop in a
great dominant church in tbe North
to poison the minds of his--; people
against us. Bishop Simpson is a
diffnitarv of another type. He is the
great orator in Northern Methodism.
He is a man of very exceptional pow
era,. He too, has been in -the South.
He, too, has heed takin nbtes and
