E The Senatorial contest, at
Columbus, is yet undecided There
seems to be a hitch in the matter
somewhere. There are some honest
men in the Senate, even among the
democrats, whose consciences are
not made of india rubber, and hence
cannot be made to vote to override
the well established law in the case
We fear our neighbor will come to
grief, all around, in the matter of
election contests.

@ The Columbus correspondent

0l Jue OlHCluHdtl COUtUteTCtuG says.
1t is stated on seemingly good au-
thority that the Judiciary Committee
OF JuG uouse nave decided ttss tho
Legislature can not constitutlonally
pass bill prohibiting persons having
a visible admixture Of African blood
from voting, the Supreme Court hay
ing heretofore decided that such acts
are unconstitutional. This question
lies at the foundation of the claim of
Onderdonk, Democrat, to oust Jones
as Senator from the Eighth Senate
rial District.
This committee is made up OF
democrats, and, if the report should
prove true as above stated, it will be
a sore blow to our neighbor of the
Dispatch, after all that he has said to
the contrary--even made oath that
"visible admixture" persons were not
voters.

FEMALE SUFFRAGE,
The Social and Political Aspects Of the
Question,

EDITOR OF THE ARqUs-Tue tendency Of
the times is to run into l1traism. Many d.
tionaI sins are, of late years, being commit.
ted in the name of Reform and Progress.
Public questions, never dreamed of BY the
political legislator. Of the country in l,s
early history, are now quietly creeping into
public importance. They cannot be ignored,
They are originated by the New England
agitators, and who ever knew one of these
earnest proselytes Of reform who failed to
be heard and duly appreciated? Ordinary
questions, such as the tariff, the national
currency. the formation of definite foreign
policy, - these they care nothing about.
There is no novelty about them there is no
chance Of New England canonization in
them they are more or less understood. a
