Boys Play.

TIE police board yesterday, in view OF
the newly promulgated law limiting the
police expenditures to $i99,OOO, and acting
upder the action of the law which author
ICES the board to discharge members OF
the force to conform to the provisions OF
this act,': made general reduction OF
salaries, ,and discharged from the serviceCap-
tains Boyd Robinson. Leonard Malone and
G. j. Schneider. The action of the board
in dismissing those officers excites much
uniavorable comment. They have been for
years connected with the service; have
never been remiss in the performance OF
their duties; have attended solely and
strictly to their business and have always
enjoyed the confidence of the public. Their
dismissal has very little to do with the re-
duction of 100000 of expense. while
the police force and the public will GER
tainiy be the losers.

hev. MI Reese, colored preacher, near
~ seventy years old, whose circuit COM
prises the parishes Of st. Helena and East
Feliciana. is reported to have been the vic
tim of a brutal outrage, in the latter parish,
Wednesday morning last He had gone
there, in pursuit of his calling, and was
summoned from his house by q band of un-
known men. They had learned that some
time previously he had been q member of
the school board, and though having no
connection with it now, that fact was
enough. He was taken to the woods, and
100 lashes inflicted on him. Besides
this, he was beaten over the head with
the butts Of reviewers, and the muzzle ol
one thurst into his mouth. Then he wal
warned to leave the parish.
Thursday morning, demand was mad'
on Justice of the Peace Harris, who ha
held that position in ward with clea
Republican majority of 100 for severa
years, to hand over his books and papers Il
the Democratic executive committee, a
Greenshurg. and then leave town in TWEEN
ty-four hours. With these demands he wa
forced to comply.

tions, which were advocated by Colonel

and referred to the committee on legisla-
ton:

Ineligible Electors,

The Baltimore Egening Bulletin, in a clear
and able article, directs attention to the fact
that the question of the eligibility as electors
of persons holding federal offices, is by no
means new one, and shows that Governor
Grover, of Oregon, had first class authority
for his action. In 1887 joint committee OF
tic Senate, and. House was appointed to
given contrary to the prohibition contained
in the second section Of the second article Of
the Constitution; and ifsuch votes were given
what ought 10 be done with them. The
committee found number of ele ctors who
held offices under the United States Govern
mcnt, and reported as follows:
"The committee are of opinion that the
second section of the second article of the
! Constitution, which declares that mo Sena.
tor OF Representative, or person holding an
office oftrust or profit under the United States
shallbe appointed an elector, ought to be carried
IN its achOl6 spirit into rigid erecutOn in order to
preCem officers Of the General Government
from bringing their official p0acer to influence
tie elections Of President and Vice President of
tie United States. This provision o. the Con
stitution, it is believed, excludes and disquali
tes deputy pOsandsterS from tile appointment of
electors AND THE DISQUALIFICATION RE-
LATEs TO THE TIME OF THE APPOINTMENTS
and a resignation of the office of deputy post
master after hts appointment as elector qcould
not enRtle him to g0tG as elect0r undcr the Con-
stttutiOn"
The report and resolution, says the BuN.Hn,
were adopted in both House and Senate-in
the latter by an unanimous vote The cases
OF Sollace and Watts are completely covered
by the passage quoted, and Governor Grover
has thus the opinion of Henry Clay, of Felix
Grundy, who was in Congress when james
Madison was President, and Attorney Gen
eral under Van Buren,, and of Silas Wright,
the great Peace Governor of New York, at
whose feet Samuel j, Tildcn sat and drank
in wisdom--an opinion indorsed by an I'M
animous Senate, in which there was not
single carpet Dagger and very few who were
not great men-that the disqualification re-
lates to the time of the appointment, or, in
other words, that no man who is disqualified
on the day of the Presidential election from
serving rs elector, can constitutionally serve
no matter what may be done afterwards to
remove his disqualitications. Watts, it seems
resigned his postmastershp subsequent to
the election, but that resignation did not
help his case, nor was there vacancy in the
College, since the law required the State of
Oregon TO appoint three electors on the 9TH
of November. The votes given for Watts
were votes thrown away, and the Gov
ernor of Oregon did his simple duty in Civ
ing certificate TO the three eltgiJle candi-
dates for electors who received the highest
Votes.
