just at this time the political record
OF Secretary Bristow is of considera-
bic Importance. He was born in July,
1882; graduated at Jefferson College.
Pa, in 1851; studied law, and p.sc-
tlced with fair success in partnership
with his father. until the breaking out
OF the war. His father, though an
owner OF slaves, was an emancipation
lst and his servants were early given
to understand that they were free to
leave him whenever they chose. In
will which he had prepared, all were
declared free at his death. The war.
however, set this viii aside. The
moment the contest of arms began.
General Bristow heartily espoused the
cause of the Union, and as he was
well-known in his section Of the State
and popular, his influence was widely
felt In August. 1861 he was in the
field as Lieutenant Colonel of the
Twenty-ffth Kentucky, regimen
raised among the first of the three
years troops. He was in the battl,,s
of Donelson and Shiloh, and in both
bore himself with distinction In
1862, he helped to raise the Eighth
Kentucky Cavalry, was made its Lieu
tenant ColoEel, and soon its Colonel.
In this position he served with grea,
credit until the fall of 1868, when he
was elected to the State Senate. He
then left the field and took his seat in
the Legislature Here he earnestly
advocated every principle and measure
which tended to help the Union cause
aud as member of the Military Com
mittee rendered valuable service

Mr.. Seth Green protests against the
wholesale slaug hter Of the sea-lions in
San Francisco Bay. In letter writ
ten on the subject he says: Il see by
the papers that your Legislators have or
are about to pass an act tor the de-
struction Of all the sea-lions that in-
habit the rocks at the mouth of San
Francisco Bay. My opinion is, it
would be a shame to kill them. The
whole of them do not destroy as many
fish as one Chinaman, and if they are
all killed you will never see any more
on those rocks. If there are too many.
employ some honest citizen to kill
certain number; bat do not destroy the
whole of that interesting family of sea-
lions. IF you do you will never be
sorry but once, and that will be the re-
mainder of your lives"

THE DETECTION OF FRAUDS SECURED.
sYSTEMATIZED INVESTIGATION BY UNITED STATES
OFFICERS PREPARATIONS FOR THE ARREST OF
ILLEGAL YOTBRs--FRAUDULENr REGISTRATION
IN BROOKLYN NUILIFIED.
The efforts of the United States officers in this
city to detect fraudulent registration have been
thoroughly systematized, under the direction of
Chief Supervisor John l. Davenport, that the arrest
of illegal voters if they present themselves at the
polls, is rendered almost certain In Brooklyn also.
the official investigations, aided by citizens, will
have it is thought the effect of detcrring repeaters
and others who have been fraudulen.ly registered,
from attempting to vote. Through these efforts and
the exposures made in THE TRIBUNE. which are ap-
proved by all honest citizens. it is believed that all
attempts at fraud will be practically nulliiied THE
TRIBUNEs special dispatches below relate to the be-
ginning of the trial of Democratic politicians in
Philadelphia for having bogus voting credentials in
their possession.
