The servian Iseyerse.,


The delay in the negotiations Tor an armstiee
between Turkey aud Seryia is rendering the po-
sltion OF Russia more difficult day by day. The
Turkish arms have Sgsia been crowned with SIX.
nal successes. and the Ssrvian army has been cut
10 two before Djanis, and apparently so CON.
plstely demorAlised that IL may be impossible to
reorganize il tor any effective purpose. Tho
Russian policy Of supplying volunteers by drib-
lets has not proved wise Que, Tor not with.
standing the desperate bravery exhibited BY
these little bands they have been destroyed
pieeemeal, aud have only served still further TO
discourage the Serviaus. The latter are evi.
IDENTIFY heartily tired OF lighting They have
long since had more than they wanted Of con-
bat with the Turk. and it may be doubted whs-
tber nyIhing short OF the support Of Russian
army corps would heneeiorth stimulate them to
take and keep the 6eld. The Seryiaus are prob
ably hegirning 10 perceive that they have been
employed Us eats paws 10 pull the chesnats out
Of the 6re tor Russia, aud that the latter power
is quite willing 10 use them up in the business.
At present they have gone so Tar that they must
psrtoree tall into the hands either Of Russia or
Turkey. They have completely exhausted their
aggressive and defensive powers, aud unless
Russia is prepared 10 step bodily in between
them and the Porte, they must accept any terms
that are offered. Whatever other power makes
capital out OF this war il is certain that Seryla
wall not, aud that at least generation must
elapss before she will have recovered tue posi-.
tlOn she held previous to her blind effort TO Sc

The Labor Question at Home and
Abroad.

English papers bewail the hard times, and
abound in reports Of failures, stopping Of fac
tories or running on short time, indignation
meetings % laboreTs out Of work, disturbances
aud rioGs, the growth OF the tramping class, and
all the indications Of poverty. privatiOns and
suffering with which the great cities Of the
United States have only recently become fami-
liar. The stats Of things abroad leads the New
York Journal Of Commerce to say that il Eng
lish emigrauts have gone TO their old homes with
the expectation that they can earn living
more easily than here thay will sOOn discover
their mistake. Ii is true that last month about
one hundred stOuecutters and masons left New
York city for Scotland, having been engaged by
contractors in that country To work on docks
and large public buildings about to he erected.
These meu we're promised steady occupation at
- p. per week, which would Do good pay in
Scotland. But this is the ouly instance in which
wUrkmen have left America on 40 engagement
at living wages in any part Of the British isles,
aud 1t Is probable will never occur again. The
London papers will have bat short time to
boast over the returning tide OF emigration.
Already there are CLEANS Of improvement IN
several branches Of business IN the United States.

such glorious spring weather as gladdened the
hearts Of the community yesterday, there will
be a speedy recovery from the depression
which all branches of trade have felt for
some weeks past. The winter has been
trying one, Notwithstanding the absence OF
severe cold weather, for it has been long
drawn out, and run over into the spring-time,
leaving the country roads in such condition
as to make it impossible for the farmers to
get their produce to the marketa- This, in
turn, has affected the business Of the towns
and cities. But few days more Of sunshine
like that Of yesterday will dry up the roads
and set the machinery of commerce working
as usual The long faces and blank despair
of the merchants turned into broad smile
under the rays Of the sun and at the first
sight Of green grass and budding trees, and
the general good nature will relieve people to
some extent Of the chronic complaint Of hard
times which everybody has dvelt upon

to expect genuine reform from this change
if it shall be made, notwithstanding the doubts
expressed by Mr. S. S. Cox, who failed to
convince his own party in Congress OF the
danger to be apprehended from the transfer
The employment in the Indian service OF a
large number of unemployed army 'oihcers'
who are maintained on the frontiers IN any
case, ought to make decided saving OF
itself. There will be a saving, in addition to
this, Of the cost incident to the dllatory pol
icy of the Indian service under the manage
ment of civilians, and the opportunity Will
be afforded of breaking away from the Vul-
lures who have lived and fattened on indian
contracts. The country will be seriously dis
too, if the army officers as class
shall not develop higher order Of official
responsibility and personal integrity than has
been the rule under the management Of the
Indian service heretofore.

It appears by Washington dispatch that
tho Democratic delegation from Missouri has
brought strong pressure to bear upon the
Attorney-Genc1al to secure the pardon OF the
convicted St. Louis whisky thieves, and that
two delegations of Democrats, the one head
ed by BoG4 and the other by CocKRE11+'
have waited upon the President with the
same purpose in view, not single ,Repub~
lican member joining them in their move
ment. IF it is SO hard for the Missouri
Democrats to SEQ these whisky thieves IN
the Penitendary for defrauding the revenue,
when convicted by the other party, how
much punishment would have been meted
out to MAou1RE and the rest Of the gang if
the Democrats had initiated the proceedings !?
This sudden outburst Of sentimentality and
tender-hea1tedness looks suspicious, to say
Cha least.

has proper estimate Of the Importance of
that trust Like Postmaster GeneralJEwE11,
ho has not tho most implicit faith in the
wolfRh investigators and their followers who
hang around and occasionally steal INTO the
various departments, and the latter has SO in
timated to committee of tho House. In
answer to an application for certain
important documents, the Secretary very
politely, but firmly, told the Committee
that they could have copies Of the papers
specified, and that the Committee could e1-
anime the originals in the Treasury Depart
ment, but that the Inter could not ba taken
out Of the Treasury building. What tha
Committee will do after putting these two
answers in their pipes and analyzing the
ashes, remains to be seen

There is story that the fifteen or sixteen
Aldermen who were elected in 1874 propose
10 insist that they were legally elected to
re1Te two years, and that they are therefore
untitled to hold their seats until December
next In answer to this ridiculous preten-
non, it is only necessary to quote part OF
The SD section OF the charter, which reads
Is follows: t'At the first election under
ths act there shall be elected the full
number Of Aldermen to which the city shall
30 entitled" The power Of the Legislature
to abolish Offices and to create new ones has
been too often affirmed by tho Courts to be
questioned even by an Alderman.

people of all parties might express their rep
rotation of Co1yn's usurpaton, aud their
wish for a change. That end was accom-
,,lished by the almost unanimous vote against
Co1y1s. Mr. HOME would doubtless regard
it as a personal calamity TO be compelled
to act as Mayor, and will unquestionably CO.
operate with the friends of good government
in all measures that will expedite the change.
It will be noticed that the title of Mr.. HOME
to the Office, and the title Of the person to
be chosen by the Council, must both rest
upon the assumption TINT there was legal
vacancy. Now; it has been suggested that
!alr: HoYSE at the proper. time take the oath
of Office as Mayor, and that he then resign
the of1ice,-thus relieving the person elected
of the counter-claim that the vacancy was
filled by the popular election, and transfer
ring to that person whatever legal force
there may be in such claim. The Mayor
elected by the Council will then represent
the united opposition to CoIvn, and such
Mayor will hold all the title which rests on
the assumption that legal vacancy existed
A triangular fight for the Office would add to
the complications of the case, and would
have the effect of strengthening CoLyES's
usurpation, dividing the friends of good or
der, and tend to further embarrass the city,
while union Of the anti Colvinites, it be-
ing no party question, would render the con-
tinuation of the usurpation extremely haz-
ardous

PRIMARY ELECTION sYsTEH

The recent Republican City Convention
passed, by very decided vote, resolution
advising an abandonment Of the system Of
nominations and the election Of delegates by
primary meetings. The Democratic party
had previously adopted a resolution to the
same effect Neither party, however, has
suggested any other plan IS substitute,
The couuptions and dishonesty Of the pri-
mary-meeting system ara confessed, but the
wit OF men has not yet discovered practical
substitute therefor.
Several ezpedients have bsen reaorted to as
substitutes for primary meetings, but all have
proved abortive. The most successful Of
These was what WINS called the "Crawford
County plAn," invented, We believe, by Alr:
BucKA1Ew, Of Pennsylvania, and taking its
name from the fact that it was first put in
operation in Crawford County, in that State.
This plan Was in the voting for candidates d.
rectly by the people, instead Of nominating
them by conventions. This plan, however,
has been universally abandoned, because it
does not meet the great evil Of the primary
meetings, which is, the stuf6ng Of the ballot
boxes, fraudulent voting and voting by per-
SONS not belonging to the party, and hired for
the purpose by opposing factions. These
were as practicable under the Crawford
County plan as in any other.
There can be no question that the theory
Of the primary y-meeting system is the correct
one. It brings the selection Of candidates
directly to the people. Where it is not posi-
bic for the whole people to meet at one place
and at one time to select candidates, the pri-
mary meeting offers to the people Of each To-
cality the means Of selecting delegates to
meet other delegates and collectively give e1-
preston to the wishes Of the majority Of
their constituents. This is the theoretical
primary meeting, one that ought to be.
It is hardly necessary to say to Chicago read
ers that such primary meeting is Of rare oc-
currence now, especially in large cities The
failure of the primary meetings is largely due
to the refusal of tho great body of voters
to attend them, thus throwing their manage
ment exclusively into the hands Of tbs candi-
dates, and often into tho hands Of unscrupu-
lous men, whose standard Of morality is meas-
ured only by success. The contest for NOM
nations is therefore too often xomanded to a
class Of persons whose names would nsvsr be
presented II tho mass Of thu voters Of ths
party a&tsnd@ thA maetingA Advantage II
