Another Contested Election Outage

Az the first session of the present congress,
two years ago, Mr. strader, the democratic
candidate in Eggleston's district, Ohio, having
been refused a certificate of election BY the
radical Governor of that state, though
legally elected by a large majority, filed the
proper evidence contesting Egglestons seat
The matter was referred to committee,
Eggleston meantime being sworn in, and
holding the seat ever since, the radical CON-
mittee dlly -dallying along until now, within
few weeks Of the end of this congress and
ofthe term for which Strader was elected, when
they report that Eggleston was not entitled to
the seat! This is simply an outrage such as
modern radicalism only has dared to perpe-
trate upon long suffering and patient peo-
pie! Mr.. Strader had no remedy neither had
the majority Of the people Of his district, but
they will have q chance, at the next election
tor President, to Danish from power forever, il
is hoped, the base demogogues who have been
not only capable OF committing, but Boosting
of such an outrage.

Naturalization.

A case was lately decided in the Circuit
Court at Bloomington, in this state, on the
question Of the validity or regularity OF dec
laration of intention before Clerk Of the
County Court, and the question whether the
Clerk OF a County Court of this state can
lawfully administer the oath and issue the
certificate, or whether, in other words, County
Courts are courts of record, having common
law jurisdiction within the meaning Of the act
of congress on that subject.
The Court decided in the affirmative on
these points, affirming the jurisdiction of
County Courts to issue certificates declaring
intention. The Judge in concluding his
opinion says:
II should have had no hesitation in permitting
this party to have been sworn at the time the
proof was made, but the Attorney General Of the
State of Illinois, and also Judge Puterb.ugh, an
eminent Circuit Judge of this State, have both
decided that this party would not be entitled to
be admitted as a citizen, and thought proper to
examine this question before permitting this
party to be sworn, and have hurriedly examin.
ed the authorities, aud arrived ut tho conclusion
announced in this opinion"

Revenue Reform,

The people will hail with heartfelt rejoic-

known as the income and internal revenue
taxes shall have been abolished. Modern in
