THE DECATUR DEMOCHA i BY A. J. HILL. Friday, February 3, 1882. Marion county will present but one candidate for Congress in this district before the Democratic Congressional Convention. A postage stamp with a portion torn off will not pass a letter through the mail, according to a recent decision of the Postoffice Department. There is some satisfaction in the conclusion that the Boston GM>e has reached, that the Star Route thieves will be punished, not in this, but the next world. Secretary Blaines Chili Peru diplomacy is a lamentable fizzle. It is now thought somebody in high places has an interest in the guano and nitrate deposits, which Las caused all thia difficulty. If so the men are a disgrace to our government.

'JYhe prospective Republican candidates foi Governor, include Col. A. D. Streight. |V. W. Dudley. Col. Robinson, Judge Taylor, Major ( alkins, IZieut. t'ov. Hauua, Judge Iglehart, G. S. Orth, and Gen. Tom. Brown, with a nameless Lost yet in the woods. The Rhode Island Legislature is wrestling with the question, whether foreigners who settle in that State should wait a generation before they are permitted to vote or not. Such is the illibeidl haw now upon her statute books and there it will remain so long ns Republicans couti'Oj the state. The lowa legislature is to bounce the free pass system on railroads. They whereas that free passes to public officials, officers vt eourts, state officials, members of the legislature, influential politicians, etc is wrong, that it exacts high transports tiotl i?f the mass and furnishes free transportation to a favored few. an'j is demoralizing to legislative morals. A resolution of inquiry passed by 50 yeas to 45 nays.

Until he does the one or the other will mark him a coward. —Journal. That is. until The Democrat permits tus temperance folks to edit a column in this paper or refuses, we are to be considered a coward, by the Journal. That is awful—crushing. Then suppose we should make the promise as the Journal did. Then suppose The Democrat should practically refuse to permit them to control that xolumn, as the Journal has. What would we then be? The Mormon Question /Again. The Republican ptltf is to-day trying to drive Mormonism from this eouatry, while the Democratic party is favoring Mormonism. But the people ".knows that whenever the Republican ’party goes to work to destroy an evil in this country, or any other question ot national interest the Republican party will do it.— Journal. The idea of destroying any other question of national interest is good. It is about as overwhelming as the .conundrum of which was first.-de chick-

The declarations - cratic papers. The Journal affirms that whenever »he Republicans go to work to destroy an evil they do it. If we remember correctly, in 1860, one of the resolution* passed by the National Republican Convsntion, denounced slavery and Mormonism as the twin relics of tiass.arism. That was twenty-two years *go, a.ud the Mormons have grown and spread a-td now have twice the power and resources at their command they had thea. The Republicans have siage controlled both houses of Congress. eicept one brief interval. They certainly had the power, time and opportunity to wipe out Mormonism, if they had earnestly desired it. The reason doubtless is because ih. Mormons were a sort of golden goose, and they did not propose to kill the goose that laid the golden egg-. Brigham Young was probably right when he asserted his money could control any legislation he desired, and we have no doubt his bribes have been effectual in preventing legisdaiwß hostile to Mormonism. Taking the Republican declarations of twenty years ago. of hostility to Mormonism, the reJ'ukl to legislate when they had the power., the assertions of Brigham Young, die fact that the titneing sys<em of his church give him control of last sums of money, niafc. the asser-

tk>B reasonable, that this hue and egy . against Mormonism is only raised for

ths purpose of wringing money out of 1 the Mormons, and not to bring them to J ] geav.'ng of Hayes, and the close sail KepnbhC» n » had to elect Garfield may have awakened the party to the necessity of doing something besides ■ •quarrelling over the spoils of office and plundering the treasury.
