It is reported that I hero is yet room to
hopo for tho repeal Of tito law under which
politicians control tho inspection Of grim
In Chicago md ut no ,hher point. II tho
bill now pending In tho Sennte should pass
that body, It may also receivo favorable
action On the part OF tho House as Senate
measure, Notwithstanding tic defoat Of tho
bill recently brought before tho lower body.
In this connection, 1t is only simple Justice
to soy for tho grain-owner "a aud grain
merchants who havo asked for change in
tho Inspection law OF this State, TINT they
havo boen misunderstood, mn d their position
mfBroprcsented. It is not truo, as alleged.
that tho change is domnnde by tho graln-
scalpcra md moro spocufntora. That class OF
men take t|ttlo or no interest in tho subject
Of inspection. Thoy neither seo nor handle
tho property in which they donl, md
do not nttompt to influonco' tho inspoction.
On tho other hand, tho log itfmate dea1crs,
by which wo moan tho mon who recoiyo aud
ship tho property, aro vitality interested in
Just and proper inspection; and thoy, al-
most to man, urge that th<' present syston,
is pcrnicions one, resulting to tho dctri-
mont Of both tho producer aud consumer, as
we'll as to tho tlnmago Of the man who han
dies tho property. Probably so per cent Of
all tho grain that arrives In Chicago is ad-
vanced upon by Chicago receivers NJ soon as

Senator Moa1oH has published In tho forth
coming June number Of tho NorM .imerias
Ntrieu q paper on tho American Constitu-
tion, especially tho provisions regulating tic
election Of presidont and Yice-presldont.
lii. MonroN thinks that tho fathers Of tho
Constitution 10 constructed tho Government
"aH to leave tho people out as fur as po4-
aible," aud that tllia waa duo to distrust ot
tho democracy. On this ha proceeds to
base an argument to sl1ow tho greater aafety

Bervatisua Of tho great body Of the people
than in that Of few hundred selected per-
Sens, 10 therefore urges tho expedienoy Of
al'olishing the Electoral College ~ part OF

While we fully agree with Senator MORTON
"a to tho comparative dangers to the national
peace involved In the further use OF the
machinery OF the Electoral College, aud as to
the e1pedienoy OF some other mode, wo do
not agree with him that Its original
adoption was induced by any distrust
Of the people. It was scheme con.
sistent with tho accepted theories Of gov
ernment at that time, mud was mado moro
prominent because Of the peculiar cigcum-
stances Of number OF Btates, then small and
likely to remain small, who were extremely
Jealous Of their power in the uuiop. These

that 1t has not been able to drive of single

either Of tho senatora from their

far from arznying tho people OF Iowa

effect to arouso still stronger determination

proves failure, the responsibility must rest
with tho Bourbons Of tho South, who hayo
