CONTESTED ELgCrfoS.-Late dspatchcs
inform US that the majority of the House Sub
Election Committee have decided TO report in
favor Of Col William +. Swiizlcr Democrat
against ID. p. Dyer (Radical) and the sitting
member from the Ninth Missouri Congressional
District Col. Switzler was elected 10 Con.
gress several years ago from the same District
over Anderson, Radical, by about one thous.
and majority, but Rodman. the unscrupulous
villain who acts as Secretary of State in Mis-.
souri,, threw out the vote Of Galloway count,
and gave certificate of electinn to his RAD.
cal friend Anderson. Switzler contested his
seat. and notwithstanding the House Commit
tee on Elections reported unanimously that
he was entitled to the seat. the Radicals over.
ruled the report of the Committee and admit
ted Anderson. Nearly two years ago Switzler
was again elected but Rodmau returned TO bis
old tricks and threw out sufficient number Of
votes to make II appear that Dyer was elected
and then gave q certificate OF election to the
latter, who was defeated by about seven hund.
red votes. Col switzler, being man of con.
siderable pluck and perseverance,, again con.
tested the seat which be bad second time
been swindled out Of by this unprincipled pink
of Missouri Radicalism. The Sub Committee,
as intimated, will undoubtedly report in favor
Of switzler. and as the Supreme Court of tho
State of Missouri has decided that the Secre-
'ary of State has no right to throw out or re.
ect the returns from any county, but that his
iuties are ministerial only-to cast up the vote
according to the returns received from the
counties and give certificate Of election to
be person having the highest number of votes
I'VE may confidently expect to hear Of Switz.

The CANADIAN DOMINION There appears

THE CANADIAN DOMINION There appears
to be strong probability that British Colum.
bia will ere long be admitted into the Canadian
Union. Delegates. or Commissioners, were
sent from Victoria to Canada some time since
to negotiate with the dominion authorities. and
the dispatches intimate that the terms proposed
appear satisfactory to both parties. Canada is
to assume the debts of British Columbia and
make an annual appropriation of $4,000 to
defray the expenses of the local government
and legislature. A semi.monthly line OF steam

ment of three Senators aud six Representa-

people of British Columbia could ask for more
advantageous terms of admission. and the only
great drawback which would initiate against
their acceptance by our Northern neighbours
would be the great distance from their seat OF
Government This would undoubtedly be- OBJ
waited BY the early construction of either the
Northern Pacific Road or the one proposed by
the Canadian authorities.

The Daily clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1866-1888, 1870-10-27

Late returns says the n. Y. World,
from the Pennsylvania election make it
certain that the Democratic majority on
the Congressional vote is over 5000.
AS about $4,000 negroes voted for the
first time, this is equivalent to a Demo
cratic majority of $4,000 of the white vo-
tiers of the State-a Democratic gain of
over $4,000 on the Presidential vote of
two years ago, when Grant had 1898
majority.
The following are the Congressional
gains, for the Conservatives, Myers in the
10th District, Speer in the 18th; Sher-
wood in the 18th; Griffin in the oath,
and Foster in the 21st. In another Dist
riot Greedy independent Republican beats
the regular nominee of the Radical party
by the aid of Democratic votes and was
classed as a democrat by Forney before
the election.

The CaIifornfa steam iPIow ON
Trial.
[From the Cincinnati Commercial 2lst.

From the Cincinnati Commercial 2lst.
On arrival of the special train, about two
o'clock, the machine. which had already
once put to test in the tough sod of the
fair ground, which has been packed and
tramped for years by the thousands of
equine, bovine and human feet. The grass
was matted and close, and good judges as
serted that the best two-horse team and
pillow in the country would not be capable
of breaking it up, yet this machine, run by
steam, made rapid Roadway, with a gague
of six feet and provided with three arms
of cutters containing twelve knives about
eight feet long. These arms made rapid
revolutions, tore up the sod in the most
wonderful manner, and pulverized the soil
as fine as the best harrow. The pillow went
over part of the ground twice, and in the
second round Buckeye grain drill was at
tached, and drilled oats, covering the grain
finely. and to the satisfaction of the spec
tators. The ground was pulverized so fine
ly, even in this tough sod, that the drill
followed with the greatest ease and distrib-
uted the grain without choking.
The rate of speed that the plow attained
with three arms of cutters, in guage Of
six feet, on the first round, was about two
feet per second, or one hundred and twenty
feet per minute. In gauge Of ten feet,
can be cut in one hour. The test yesterday
was of six foot gauge, cutting from four
to six inches deep, and the machine tore up
and pulveriZed at the rate of 1.29 acres In
an hour. The pillow is said to be capable of
DANG the work often ordinary plows, and
pulverizing the soil like harrow as it
tears il up.
