THE ILLINOIS SENATORIAL CONTEST.


The republicans elected their presidential
electors in Illinois by a majority of nearly
twenty thousand over the democratic can
didates, and their governor by q majority
of nearly seven thousand, yet they have
lost the United States senator. The pc
culiar political complexion Of the 'legisla-
~ture-neither party having a majority, the
balance of power being held by five SEN
ators elected independent of party-re-
quired the most delicate of tact, the most
careful of management, in order to secure
success but it would appear that the re-
publicans deliberately threw away their
opportunity.
Their first nomination-John A. Logan
was one which they could not have sup
posed would have been successful. His
nomination being a forcgone conclusion,
five republicans refused to go into the eau
Gus, and thus announced, in advance, their
determination not to accord to him their
support. Indeed, it was a surprise to the
republicans of the country hat he sue
ceeded in obtaining as many votes as he
did. He was no ornament to the senate,
and his candidacy reflected no credit on the
republicans Of Illinois or the country. He
was a gallant officer and brave soldier
during the war Of the rebellion, but as a
politician he is not reputable, and as a sen.
ator he has been q failure. The country
will experience a feeling Of relief that he
has been relegated to private life, and will
hope that his retirement may prove final.
Their second nomination-that of Judge
Charles B.. Lavrence-was essentially a
weak one. Not but that he was a man of
integrity and ability, for he was all that,
and would have made a most reputable
senator. We would that We had more GEN.
ators like Lawrence and Christiancy, for
they belong to the same school, neither be-
ing politicians, and both owing their COM
handing positions to their talents and legal
learning. But for all this, his nomination
was essentially q weak one. Judge Law
renee, while chief justice, had made q de-
cision-a perfectly righteous and just one
which was obnoxious to the farmers of
the state, and for which they had defeated
him when a candidate for reelection.
More or less Of these farmers were in the
present legislature, and the 'old sore" WAS
not yet healed, and 30, as might reasonably
have been expected, they refused to vote
for him. If they honestly believed that
they could not trust Judge Lawrence to
construe the laws, how could they be ex-
pected to trust him to make laws3
Ordinarily, we do not believe that a ma
jority should surrender to a minority. This
government is founded upon the principle
that majorities govern, but it is, also, q
government that endeavors to conciliate
the minority, and compromise with them
where no sacrifice OF principle is required
upon either side. And here was a case
where concession to the minority, even a
very small minority. was absolutely de-
manded. With the republican control of
the senate gradually slipping away, and the

We congratulate our readers and the
country, that there was patriotism and
craftsmanship enough in congress to save
the country from the danger which threat
cned it on account of the complications in
the presidential question. We congratu-
late the people of Vermont that it was CIV
en- to her distinguished senator to lead in
this triumph of honesty, fair dealing and
patriotism over narrow mindedness and po-
litical trickery. The electoral bill only
awaits the presidents signature to become
a law, ard, with it, to use the language Of
Senator Edmunds, the result of our presi-
dental election will be reached Through
the calm and orderly progress of the adj
ministration of law and through the
d" calm and orderly judgment of a tribunal
d" bound by tie most solemn obligations TO
" decide according to the constitution and
4" the law" Can the people, republicans
or democrats, ask anything more' Ought
they to have been satisfied with anything
less?

The Electoral Comnromisa,

The New York Herald predicts the fol-
lowing as the electoral triparte commission;
Judges-ClIiford of Maine, Miller of Iswa,
Field of California, Strong Of Pennsylvania,
Bradley of New Jersey ; senators-Ed-
munds OF Vermont, Conkling of New York,
Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, Bayard Of
Delaware, Thurman of Ohio representa-
tives-Abbott of Massachusetts, Field of
New York, Mcmahon of Ohio, Hoar of
Massachusetts, McCrary Of Iowa. BY this
selection New York would have two men,
bers and Ohio two, so that the geographical
equilibrium would be preserved between
Tildsn and Hayes.

The election of Judge Davis to tho SEN
ate from Illinois will, Of course, preclude
the idea of his selection as the fifth judge
in the tribunal provided for by the elector-
al bill. The remaining judges to select
from are Swsyne of Ohio, Hunt of New
York, and Bradley of Pennsylvania, all OF
whom were appointed as republicans as,
indeed, were all of the judges of the su-
preme court, except Clifford of Maine.

Only three New England senators coulc

Only three New England senators could
be found to vote against the electoral
bill-James G. Blaine and Hannibal Ham
lin, republicans, of Maine, and William
w. Eaton, democrat, Of Connecticut. They
represent tho extremes of New England,
and the extremes of political partisanship.
The country has had a safe deliverance
from the policy they represent.

Judge Davis proposes to give the next
president a fair start in the business of fill

that, If he accepts, he will go directly from
