Cooper; but as between the other
two he is Tilden man.
Without a fear Of throwing away his
ballot he would vote for Smith and ell
dorse his preference as next for Cooper,
then Tilden. When the count comes the
vote would first be counted as cast.
The candidate voted for being found
lowest in the list the ballot would
be transferred to its first preference.
He not being by all the original votes
and preferences brought up with
the other two, the vote would finally be
counted for Tildsn. By this system no
one would OF necessity throw away his
vote, but every citizen could actually
have voice in the selection of the can
didate. Besides it would give an op-
portunity for the expression of opinion
which is not now afforded, because, in
cases where it is known not to be posi-
to elect, voters are not inclined, for the
sake of expressing their real sentiments,
to lose the chance OF taking the next
best.
In Government like ours, that sys-
tenn is most desirable which assures the
fairest and fullest expression of the
voice of the people. This feature of Mr..
Hare's plan seems to come nearer what
we need than any method that has yet
been presented, and we believe will, in
time, be engrafted in some way upon our
electoral system.

place our producers on an equality with
those OF the other nations Of the earth.
In concluding his case he presents Our
argument from an unexpected source,
indeed. from proclamation OF Grant
himself In relation to the annexation Of
San Domingo. In his last message
Grant said:
All that Is produced In Cuba could be pro-
the United States. commerce between the
island and the mainland would be free. there
would be no export duties on her shipments,
no import duties on those coming here
There would be no import duties upon the
supplies, machinery, etc, going from the
States.
What stronger argument could be
advanced than this in favor of free
trade, and yet all the benefits 1t sets
forth can be indefinitely multiplied
without annexing Ban Domingo, or any
other country, by simply removing the
burdensome and oppressive tariffs
which exclude Our products from the
world, and only serve to keep up alb
normal prices here ut home to no ones
benefit. now that the production ex-
oeeds home demand, and can no longer
rely on protection for profit Ii never
was entitled to.

LEGAL ADVISER TO THE TREASURER

Laurent Auguste Ia q large griff, for
tnerly cigar maker. more recently a
street broker, and since that. having re-
tired from the brokerage business, WAS
selected by Our State Treasurer as his
legal adviser, and has filled the office
since 1874.
The Treasurer deposes that he paid
MFR. Auguste for his legal services out Of
his own funds. This shows the high
estimate he placed upon the legal at
sainments Of M. Augusta. Now. eonsid-
ering that the constitution and laws i'm
pose upon the Attorney General the duty
OF giving legal advice to oil State Off
cials, who are required to call on him
Cor all needed counsel, and that for this
and other services the Attorney General
aud assistant attorney we're paid large
salaries, 1t evidences great liberality on
the part Of the high principled Treas
urer to employ special legal counsel,
and to pay for the same out of his own
pocket.
1t proves, too, the high standing and
repute of l.. Auguste, Esq, as legal
counselor and adviser. that he should
be thus preferred to the attorneys en-
ployed by the State and to the whole
bar of the State and city. Considering
that MIR. Auguste's name does not even
appear on the roll OF the practicing at.
torneys Of this State and city, his seleo-
zion for this high position of advisor to
tho chief revenue officer OF the State,
indicated something like reproaeh of
Our very eminent bar, and involved a
very high tribute to the professional at
Sainments of that distinguished jurist.
Our curiosity as to the grounds of this
preference of Mr.. Auguste over all our
disciples OF Justinian and Blackstone
Is fully justified by perusal OF the tes'
timony Of Mr.. Auguste himself, pub
lished in the morning papers, wherein
he says that he was generally occupied
reading law in the Treasurer's Office
and that he was not lawyer, but knew
something Of law; did not NEEDLE with
