ors It. The strongest opposition and warm
est support is found on the democratic side.
The republicans may be as much divided,
but express themselves with more caution.
The choice of the committees in the two
houses has been left for agreement outside
Of the bill. The understandings in the COM
mittee was that there should be three dem
ocrats and two republicans from the house
and three republicans and two democrats
from the senate, and that each party should
rame the members In caucus and the per-
sons designated be elected.
The Herald says the democratic men,
bers of the New York delegation will rally
to the support of the bill. Tho republican
members are non-committal, but will
doubtless favor It. Ex.Gov. Mccormick,
secretary of the republican national com
mittee, endorses the compromise. Post

The Vermont Plan for Counting the
Vote.


Senator Edmunds is the real father of
the new plan for settling the presidential
dispute. He foreshsdowed it, indeed, in
the first debate in the senate on the Morton
bill, two years ego. Then, he sharply re-
iected both the alternatives presented, says
tic Springfield Republican, that no vote
should be received that the two houses do
not agree to, or that everything shall be re-
ceiyed that they do not concur in rejecting,
and argued, substantially for just such a
tribunal US he has carried through the
special committee now Thus he then
stated and argued his case
in many of the eastern states, and is the
constant and constitutional practice in the
state ttOm Which | COme-that is, on each
occasion of a presidential election, the ap-
pointment of y committee TO be named in
each house, to be, if you please, equal in
number, who should form n single and
consolidated committee, the members of
which, thus selected and appointed, would
presumably be among the purest and best
and most skillful in law ami politics of the
members of the two houses; that that
body of people should be sworn to take
the returns when they are opened by
the vice-presilent of the United States
and canvass them under the sanction of the
constitution and the law that they should
| apply to them the ame impartial consider
ations that they would be bound to apply
to them, had the con stitutiOn declared that
those eight persons should form a court
who should finally determine every ques-
ton and that body-Call it a committee
or whatever you like-but one single con-
solidated body, L joint committee, not act
ing separately like a conference committee,
each representing one house, but a single
body of eight or nine men, should take
these papers, with the constitution and the
law before them, az to the method of vot-
ing and the method of making returns, and
report to the two houses thus assembled
and who, according to the con-
sttution and the llws,ha received the ma
jority of the votes. That, as l say, is the
constant practice in the state of Vermont.
should propose that when these eight gem
tlemen, If you please, 80 acting and so
sworn to act impartially, according to the
law, should have made their report, that
report should be taken as the guide Gs to
who appeared to be president If the United
States, unless the hou should concur in
setting it aside, Instead of saying, as Mr..
Morton's bill does, that u vote which has
not undergone that sworn scrutiny shall be
taken, l say that a vote having undergone
that scrutiny and being allowed shall be
aiken; or, being rejected, shall not be re-
iected unless the two houses concur in re-
versing this sworn examination of men
who are in an attitude to make IN examin-
alton.

THE SUPREME COURT ON JUDGE
HAWKINS.
A $4,000 Suit Against tho pieayune
Exploded. 81

/ The Supreme Court through its organ,
Chief Justice Manning, this morning
| decided the case OF Jacob Hawkins vs..
The Picayune Publishing Company adj
versely to Hawkins. The decision ID
characterized throughout by dignified
and able enunciations OF the law and is
very severe on Judge Lynch, before
whom the case was tried, on account of
his rulings.
The suit, it will be remembered, was
for $4,000 for libel, based upon an
article published in the Picevune, alleg-
ing Hawkins to be q corrupt judge.
The Court, commenting on the action
OF the plaintiff. says:
Tn this case the testimony Of the
crier Of the court was offered
to prove his own successful bribery Of
one Of the jurors, and upon ascertaining
that the crier had disappeared, the pre-
siding judge was offered to prove the
orier's admission that he had slipped
the piece Of paper In D'Aquin's hand,
while the officer was accom- panying
them to their room for renewed delibera-
ton. 4
The refusal of the judge to grant
new trial under these circumstances is
not merely an error in law. 1t Is off,
.cial misconduct, reprehensible in all lis
phases. TWAS his duty to have ordered
a new trial er Nero f,otu. A Judge is
the conservator of his court. The con-
servation Of its purity is his first and
highest functions. It should not re-
quire the interposition Of counsel to
move the Judge promptly to repair an
Injury to his own condemnation Of JUS
tice, effected by such foul means. The
knowledge of the stain on that day and
by that act stamped upon his court, was
brought home to him by protracted
and repeated appeals for its
removal. His own knowledge of
the facts was attempted to be ELECTED,
and instead OF making the knowledge |
the basis Of an instantand voluntary or
der which should wrest from the briber
the fruits OF his wrongful act, he per- |
mitted the verdict, which he knew to
have been bought, to tarnish the records |
until the appeal to higher tribunal
should have removed the opprobrium
thus cast upon the law and those who
It. .

Matters ore assuming o feverish cas-

The situation is assuming much more

This move on the part Of Packard
has had the effect OF producing
considerable stir among those who re-
eide. in the neighborhood Of the st.
