Ioland county, complete, gives Ellsworth ,49l /,
Cleveland ,699, Gillette about 100 Hartford appears
to be the only county in the State which has gwen a
Wing majority (say 1907 unless Fairfield be an, ex-
ception, which is yet doubtful In New London
county Gillette received about $50 votes and in Hart
ford county about many.
There will also be an Opposition majority il both

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We publish to-day message from President Ty-
Ter to Congress pressing upon the attention of that
body the condition of the finances of the Govern
ment. The National Inteligencer thus makes mem
ton of it
ats general object, TO impress upon Congress the
necessity of early action upon for the sup
port of the public credit and for carrying on the Gov
ernlnent, cannot but be highly approved"
The Intelligencer does not concur in the recon-
mendaon OF the President ''to resume the property
the public lands, and apply it TO the purposes OF
Government" but thinks 'it should be well weighed
before responded to-"
We are as much opposed as any one can be to sun
settling any policy that may have been determined
on before it bias been tried and proved pernicous and
without its imperative necessity, should be 10th to
see Congress take back from the States the right to
the proceeds ofthe public domain which had been fair
y relnquished The States In the Distribution act
however, there was contingency named, upon the
occurrence of which, the proceeds of the sales were
to revert to the General Government 1t is thought
by the President that this contingency will occur
that it will be necessary to impose duties inn
ports higher than the limit of 20 per cent
The message is brief, manly, and to the point. 1t
is without circumlocuon, and must arrest the atten-
ton of Congress the critical state Of our national
affairs There is no Shrinking from his duty on the
part of the President. He recommends action, and

We give below, to the exclusion Of ether matter
the important Executive message communicated 10
Congress Friday last touching the stale Of public
credit and the condition of the Government finances
The President understands his Duty and it will be nc
fault of his if Congress fails to meet the expectations
of the country at the present crisis The Legisla-
tive branch is either incompetent or strangely remlss
and rejoice to the President reminding it Of its
papabe neglect at this juncture. There will be diifs-
rent opinions among the Wings in regard to the pro
priety of the Presidents suggestion concerning the
public lands. The idea Of Withdrawing the proceeds
of the sales from the States, to which the land right
fully belongs, would not be entertained for moment
under any other circumstances than those which now
surround the government. AS tits, a proposition Of
the kind may be carried though we think not
