OF the Legislature to refuse to receive his

of Mr.. MoaEY, from Louisiana, the Commit

building lines Of equal capacity. A Wash.

A New Idea about Elections

One DR.. C.. T. CLARK. of Oswcgo, New
York, has yentured to publish proposition
for new mode of elections. lie starts out
with the idea that the caucus Is ruling the
country in fact, and he proposes to recognize
the fact by law, with a slight modification.
He proposes that "the constituency Of the
representative elector must be established
"by lot. For this purpose let the voters in a
sstown or ward be registered. Let their
I" names be publicly drawn hy the proper
authorities, as the names Of jurors are now
''drawn from the panel, till the whole are
"divided by ilfties, OF hundreds. or other
"suitable number, into us many Isis as tho
"register will fill Let each list constitute IL
$ ,ssssnearyN electoral constituency. Let this
constituency be assembled as soon MS con-
"yenient after The drawing, and utter notice
"to its members, and proceed, retired by
"itself like Jury, to choose its reprcycnia-
"tive electSr."
Representative electors he proposes shall
be thus chosen for the election of all public
officers who are not elected by the Legisla-
ture. Thus there would be a convention OF
electors to elect county and corporate oiil-
GERS. and another to eject legislators and
etate officers.
OF course such Il proposition cannot Sue

may be extended, but never c,rtaied until

able evils. and then follows arbitrary power
which puts IN end to those "rishtS." DR.
CLARh's proposition would, we doubt not
Improve the quality of legislative and Off
c!as character but it will not be seriously
entertained. We notice it for its novelty.

Senator MOrton's Plan for the Election
of President and Vice President.
Senator Morton, during his late brief visit to
this city, gathered large amount OF information
to aid him as Chairman of the Committee having
under consideration the subject OF the election Of
President and Vice President of the United States.
In addition to the various schemes heretofore pre-
sented, as amendments to the constitution. he has
supplied himself with the views Of American
statesmen, IRON the beginning OF this century to
the present time and also with the writings of dis
tinguished Engshmen. The Senator is IN favor OF
devising plan by which the people can vote d.
election of electors by districts, instead Of by
States. The necessity OF providing tribunal to
settle disputes in that connection will receive
proper consideration.
