opening of the United States CIR

Mcdonald, Jonn Joyce, A. Joyce,
or Mrs. Joyce, at st. Louis, OF at
Ripon, Wisconsin, over different
signatures during several mohtns
of last year. The Telegraph Com

mand was TOO general ana would
require an immense amount OF la

that dates and descriptions OF mes

During the discussion, Wood said
he was not specially opposed to
the passage Of this bill, but that
his remarks were intended to be
general in their application. AS
to the ship-yards of this country
being silent, that fact was attri-
butable to the gentleman's (Kas.

posed such protective tariff on
everything entering into the con
struction of vessels that it was
impossibIesto ,baiId vessels in this

sells of other countries. He (Wood)
was an advocate Of free ships, and
had always been in favor Of free
trade, believing that American in
dusiry, American enterprise, Am
erican capital and American pro-
gressiveness, enabled this country
to compete with all other coun-
tries. a
The House took up as a special

Withdrawn from market, passed the
Senate. 1t provides That they are
not to Withdraw until notice of the
location is filed in the local land
office where the land is subject to

Senators determined that Morton

THE FEMALE sUFFRAGIsTs
are holding a convention here and
urging the adoption of female suf-
frage in the District. If Congress
should pass their bill and not, at
the same time, restore suffrage tn
the males here, the experiment
would be tested of how the women
could run the District government
1t is hardly probable, however, that
they will succeed yet awhile,
though numbers of people who, a
short while ago. opposed the idea
Of woman's voting, are now favoi
ing it.
TILDEN AND HENDRICKS
are the men most talked of for the
democratic nomination, with the
chances for the latter predominant
ing, because of the finance ques-
ton, which will unquestlonably cut
a "oig figure in the selection of a
candidate. While Hendricks does
not altogether suit eithar hard Of
soft money men, he will be taken
by either wing as preferable to any
of the avowed and outspoken men,
like Tilden and Thurman on the
one side, or Pendleton and Allen
upon the other. New England asks
for the second place on the ticket,
and presents Castor, bf Massachu-
setts, and English aad higersoll,
of Connecticut.
SENATOR sHERMAN's LETTER,

looked upon as blow at Grant S
third term aspirations and Morton 5
hopes Of the succesSorship, and by
some is thought to be shrewd
movement in favor Of Blaine, with
Hayes as second on the ticket. AT
any rate it created quite a stir
among the radical aspirants, and
Sherman has been the recipient OF
curses, both loud and deep, from
some Of them.
The FOREIGN NEWS
is of little interest, Continuous ac-
counts Of battles in Spain, where
each side claims the victory, and
dispatches from Turkey about the
fighting with the Herzegovlnians,
are the burden Of the story, There
are signs Of war between San Sal
vador and Guatemala, and OF a
revolution in Mexico, but these
are to be expected periodically and
create no emotion. The elections
in France, it is now understood,
will require the reconstruction Of
President MacMahon's cabinet

A False Statement Corrected.
% he Editoi. Of The H;orZd..

To the Editor Of The World:
SIR. Iii your Issue of the 18th utimo you
published letter from special correspondent
IN Vermont which contained statement that
the Howe Machine Company had issued circu-
lar directing its employees 10 vote the Repub-
lican ticket, and threatening discharge from
employment as q penalty for disobedence.
Your correspondents letter contained o copy of
the circular. 1t is dated at Rochester, N. Y, is
addressed to an unnamed person at Rutland,
Vt, and is signed George X. Pettibone."
This description of the circular is sufficient
TO satisfy any one acquainted with our business
that no such document was issued with the
knowledge or approval of the officers Of our
company. Our principal Office is in New York
city, not Rochester. Our manufactures (where
are the most of our employees, are at Bridge
port, Conn, and Peru, Ind, and not in Rut-
land, Vt.
We have local agents in every city of the Unit
ed STATES and many in foreign countries, but
they are employed by us to sell sewing machines
and not to influence elections. The extreme
lmprobability that one residing in Rochester,
n. Y, should have thought it his duty to adopt
intimidating measures in Vermont in order TO
help carry that State for Hayes will, we hope,
corroboratc and emphasize the denial on our
part OF the writing or sending any such docu-
mcnt.
We ask you to insert our declaration that no
such circular was issued TO our knowledge nor
with the assent, conniyance or approval of any
of the officers of this corporation.

THE SAME RULE For ALL.-Yesterday
Governor Grover, Of Oregon, gave certifi-
cate of election as elcctor to E. A. Cronin, a
Democratic candidate for that office, on the
ground that one of the Republican cundi-
dates, the late Postmaster Watts, was inel-
gibe. i
Whatever differing theories concerning
that decision may be entertained, this much
is plain: The same theory must be applied
to all cases. 1t will not do to make various
laws for various States. If it be held that
when the votes come to be counted in Wash
ington the certificates may be inquired into
further than is necessary TO ascertain their
genuineness, that rule must be impartiallv
applied, If, as we have inclined to believe
the appointment of electors is purely State
matter, and if there is no power TO go behind
the authentic certificates of State officers,
that rule must be impartially applied If
the Democrats insist upon inquirng into the
proceedings of the Louisiana Returning
Board they cannot prevent the Republicans
from inquiring into the proceedings of the
Oregon Governor. On the other hand, if
the Republicans insist that the authentic ac-
ton of the State is conclusive in Louisiana,
they must admit that it is conclusive in Ore.
