ELECTORAL DISQU1ElFiCd-
llshas11 ST TI0NS. d A

People are disposed to lay good deal OF
stress upon certain Irregularities infthe
choice o. electors ia certain states, and lay
hold on them as one means Of escape from
Threatened troubles, For instance, one %
the electors il Vermont was a postmaster,
and constisutionally ineligible. "A similar
case existed ii California; ana IN south
Caroline, the name Zone was grossly mis- !
spelled. 800. - ~ y, sgofs ~
Z We think the equitable construction Of
the law governing the action of electors is,
that the vote II the state they speak for, b
cast 10 accordance With the win expressed
BY the majority Of voters. If taat will Is
clear and emphatic. and Without the faint
of fraud The frsmers Of the Constitution
cou II never have contemplated that the
choice Of President should hinge absolutely
upon. the death. iaeligiblli,S orsdisqsali6-
cation Of . member Of the electoral college
upon contingencies dependent upon the
condition Of one of tie many Instruments
snRowsred.tO express the popular, choice.
Ii so, the electoral system becomes even
more obnoxious 70 objection than it is now.
