the viii OF the majority. but simply the defeat
OF one Of the party candidates whom party
convention had nominated without regard'to bis
qualifications. Such an application Of the plan
Of Minority Representation could not have any
other effect than that of coercing all party con-
ventions to choose their candidates with refer
ence to their itness for the positions assigned
to them.
It is probable that, in the present election,
most Of the voters will vote the ticket which
they find prepared for them at the polls, giving
one vote and a half to each candidate, but as
time rolls On and they become farniliarized with
the new system, and as old party ties become
loosened With the decay of old party issues, it
is almost certain that the people will use the
discretion which the minority system offers to
them, to the great improvement OF the character
Of our Legislative bodies.

SONS employed we're liable to have part Of
their salaries con6scated for party
purposes, in the way Of assessments
This gross abuse the President ostentatious1y
ordered to be discontinued; yet, hardly had he
issued his order to stop such assessments, before
the Campaign Committee at Washington, COM
posed of Senators Harlan, Chandler, and others,
levied direct assessment upon every ofiice-ho1d-
er and Government clerk in the United States,
which, in some cases Of Postmastcrs, exceeded
the annual revenue Of the Office. In like man
ner, htr. Scammons Committee in this State,
and the Republican Committees in all other
States, levied assessments upon Ill Office
holders within their jurisdiction. County
Committees and City Committees have
done the same thing, and thus, indirectly, vast
sums Of money, collected from the people in the
shape Of taxes to pay these public officers, are
deducted from their pay and used to purchase
votes, corrupt the ballot-box, and further
degrade and deprave the public morals.
The Civil Service system, thus constituted and
thus administered, has become the Government.
The corruption Of the extremities has reached
to the centre. We ask the thoughtful, honest
men Of the country how long the Republic can
be maintained on this p1an2 How much longer
can we safely postpone reform? And what
reason is there why the people should not at this
time, at the polls, express thoir condemnation
Of this demoralizing and despotic system?

Protest OF the Board Of Trade against
the Proposed Bridging OF the De-

BUFFALO, N. T, Oct. 29::-The Board Of Trade

bridging Of the Detroit River, reafdrmed the
same, with the following addition:
ResoErsd, That the bridging Of the channel Of the
Detroit River west Of Stony Point Is Objectionable only

between Stony Island and Canads-
The Boa1d also adopted the following zeso1u-
ton:
Reso1utd That the action Of this Board has always
been in favor Of Free Trade and free commerce be-
tween the staes, and IN fa7or Of Ill faciea for our
tnInnd commerce such as bridges and tunnels, when
required by railroads. and free canals to cheap
transportation; and that the Arst duty Of the parties
interested is to examine and find whether tunnal II
practicable and when it is practicable the river should
be tunne1ed mountains are, and when not practices
bic bridges should be permitted, and only justf>
able the ground Of great public necessity to fscl"

we baleve that great national chanuel waJa for iu-
land commerce, now greater than our Foreign Con-
merce, should ever be b1idged.

Mr. J. 7. Scammon, Of Milwaukee, criticizes
Mayor Medill, Of Chicago, very severely for the
latter's failure to enforce the law against selling
beer On Sunday. MIR. Scanmon also takes occa-
sion to state, in connection with this criticism,
that TIE TRIBUNE is the organ Of Mayor Medil,
which is not true Tho poicy-holders Of the
Mutual Security Insurance Company have
been trying to enforce another law
against Mr. Scammon with even poorer success
than Mayor Medill has had in his offorts to en-
force the Sunday law. While TIE TRIBUNE is
not Mayor Medill's organ, it thinks that that
officer ought not to confne himself so closely
to the execution Of the Sunday law as to over
look the action which the city commenced against
Mr.. scammon before the IRE, to recover large
sum Of money due to the Public School Fund.

The world has heard great deal Of late about
the pre- Raphaelistic in art, school, Of which
Rosetti, Millais, Holman, Hunt, End Bum
Jones arc the Leading representatives, but the
London correspondent Of the Cincinnati Com
nereial has had the rare pleasure Of attending a
pre-Raphaelistic wedding,- the OCCASION being
the marriage OF daughter OF one Of the artists
mentioned above to an eminent German scholar.
The peculiar features of this occasion was the
conventional costume adopted by the ladies, and
as this may be Of interest to those ladies who
are not pre-RaphaehBtic, we condense its
description. The skirt Of the dress begins
Just beneath the bosom, the material being Of
old, white OF cream-colored silk, trimmed
with real lace, sleeves short and pufed, and cor
sage open and pointed Tho skirt clings to the
figure, disclosing it's shape, after the manner Of
the antique Greek draperies,. No jewelry is
worn by the pre-Raphaelite ladies' but only red
or w1ite flower, according to complexion, The
general effect must have been the same as it 8
party Of our reat-great-graadmothers had
stepped out Of their canvases for that evening.
AS compared with the customary gaudy, and
sometimes vulgar, toilets Of society at present,
the description is a refreshing one, and induces
the wish that pre-Raphaelistic principles could
be generally adopted.

clerks think, however, that they give as much
time to their duties as their chiefs.
There is not much hope Of reform to be
found in the order promulgated by Commits
sioner Leggett, Of the Patent Office. The fact
that his order provides less number OF Office
hours than the statutes require, and the circum-
stance that l1r. Commissioner Leggett HIM
self has been indu1ging in absence from his
post for weeks at time during the past sum-
mer, will scarcely contribute to the work Of
reformation. When the lava Of the country,
and General Grants tremendous personal et-
forts in the cause of Civil seryics Reform fail,
it ia hardly to be expected that clerks should
conform to new and strict regime Immediately
before a Presidential election, in which they
perform the most valuable service OF their four
years' term, going home to vote the Administers
tion ticket

The Missouri Republican has changed it's form
from folio to 2 quarto, and brings out its first
issue With sixteen pages. It is printed on a
Walter press,-the same which is now used by
the London Times. The type impression made
by this machine is not so distinct and readable
that Of the Hoe press, but this defect is coun-
terbalanced by the fact that it prints both sides
OF the sheet at once. The Republican, in it's
new form, presents remarkably fine ap-
pearance and it's prosperity is attested by thirty
four columns Of advertisements.

4 document Of a political character, signed by
Grant Republicans in New York City, and in
tended to aid the ticket in that city, has been
submitted to the Methodist Preachers Society,
now in session there, with the request that the
substance Of it be presented from their pulpits
to their regular congregations. The Society
has taken the matter under consideration. A
more bare-faced attempt to mix religion and
politics, and turn the pulpit into d political
stump, WAS never attempted before. There
have been occasions when 8 single minister
now and then has SO far forgotten lis legitimate
duties as to turn his sermons into partisan
harangues but this is the first instance where
the leading members Of q political party hare
publicly attempted to dragoon the ministers of
whole denomination into the support and open
advocacy Of their ticket from the pulpit.

The Euening Journal and other kindred politi-
cal papers have recently sought to make it ap-
pear that Senator Trumbul1 is "demagogue."
The charge, of course, will have no effect upon
his friends. At the same time, ne doubt
whether his bitterest opponents can listen to
such charge without feeling all the while it's
utter absurdity. Senator Trumbull is the last
man in the world upon whom such 8 charge can
fasten. A dernagogue is man who caters to
the sentiments Of the mob, whether right or
wrong, for his personal aggrandizement. AS
far 90 this definition applies to politics, Senator
Trumbulls record shows that he has
not the first element Of the demagogue
in his composition. He has always
in his political life done exactly the thing which
the demagogue would not have done, under the
Same circumstances. The charge oftenest
brought against him is, that he has kept himself
a1oof from the people has not followed or
truckled to the fuctuating phases Of popular
opinion, but has acted upon his own convictions
of right and wrong, expediency md inexpe-
diency. At the impeachment trial OF Andrew
johnson he voted to acquit, because he believed
it to be right, even against the pressure OF popu~
lar opinion, It was the last thing damagogue
would have done. In identifying himself with the
Cincinnati movement, he took exactly the oppo-
site course from that which q demagogue
would have taken. His course in thus
declaring himself independent Of party
f7ooro+ioYo roou;rad rcuraua fntopritv ond
and steadfast adherence to convictions Of right,
qualities which are never required OF the dema-
gogue. Ho held high position in the Ropubli-
can party, and was looked up to as one OF the
foremost exponents Of real Republican princi-
pies. He could have had any Office in that
party by remaining in it, and voting in obedience
to the Senate CAUCUS. The demagogue would
have clung to it, right or wrong. When, in his
Judgment, it was wrong, he left it, preferring to
face obloquy and reproach rather than yield his
convictions OF the right There is not one act
Of his public life in which his course is not ex-
actly opposed to that which demagogue
would have taken. For the Euening
Journal, therefore. at this late day, to
call him demagoGue, only shows. that
its editors are as ignorant Of the meaning OF the
word as they we're Of certain other words which
they recently employed in reference to the Su-e
preme Court Of Illinois. The time is rapidly ap-
proaching when Mr. Trumbul will receive the
thanks even Of those who now malign him for
the manly and statesnan1ike course he has
adopted in this crisis OF American politics.

mendation Of Mr. Reed alone. In
others, Mr. Reeds efforts had the CO
operation Of men who are simply noted as
"prominent citizens" without giving their
names. In still other cases, the names Of Mr.
Reeds co-laborers are given, and we have been

effort to suppress crime in Chicago. The names
Of the three Republican candidates for Con-

B. Farwell has Joined Mr.. Reed in requesting
pardons for two cases Of burglary, one case of
assault with intent to murder, and one case OF
rape. Mr. J. D. Ward has asked par
dons for cases Of forgery and larceny
Mr. J. B. Rice has enlisted himself in
the cause Of three burglars. Mr. N. B. Judd,
ex-Congressman and present Collector, has So
icited pardon for men convicted Of larceny,
burglary, and assault with intent to murder-
Mr. A. c. Hesing, who, day before yesterday,
Withdrew from his membership on the Citizens
Committee OF Twenty-Five for the Enforcement
Of the Laws, has joined in petitions to pardon
men sentenced for bribery, larceny, burglary,
rape, md manslaughtor. Alr. Henry Greene
baum, who instituted tho movement fort the sup
preston of crime in Chicago, and who now
wishes to withdraw from it, signed the petition
for the pardon OF Alderman Glade, convicted
and sentenced for bribery,-a petition in which
he found ready corporation from twenty-eight
Aldermen. hIr. T. N. Bradley, the Republican
candidate for Sheriff OF Cook County, found
occasion to ask the release Of man convicted Of
an assault with intent to commit murder. Afr.
Bradley Was joined in this application by Conrad
Folz, the jailor. Mr.. J. L. Beveridge, now Con-
gressman, also candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ornor, and who is running for the latter Office
because he expects to become Governor by
OgleBby's election to the Senate, has requested
the release Of four thieves serving out their
