A CIoae Argument.

A letter has been written by Judge
West of Bellfontaine, this State, to
Attorney General Taft, on the sub
ject of the anomalous commission
for counting the electoral vote and
deciding the question of the Presi-
dency. The argument is the ablest
Of anything we have yet read, and
little is left upon which to rest a
defense of this novel scheme. We
annex an abstract of the letter, that
our readers may catch, at least, the
drift of the argument adduced, by
which they may gather some idea of
the character of this new method of
soothing the timidity and calming
the fears of the law-givers of Wash
ington.
Judge West holds that the pend
ing proposition of the Joint Com
mission ignores the precedents and
opinions of the past century, and
thinks that the hot haste of its ad-
vocates to secure its adoption rem
ders it impossible to give it the con-
sideration its novelty and startling
gravity demand. 1t can never have
more than the dignity and author
ity of a statute, and as such may not
be free from constitutional infrmity.
"The prOpriety of members of judi
cial court considering and passing
upon the constitutionality of stat
ute under which they have accepted
and exercised the offices and func-
tions of a political court" saws
Judge West, "does not favorably
impress the common understanding"
He thinks that the sixth section of
the bill, which comedies the right of
defeated claimants to the Presidency
to appeal from the decision of the
commission, is a delusiOn and
mockery, because majority of the
court before whom such a question
may come for final adjudication
will, as members of the commission,
have already prejudged the case.
This commission is a tribunal un-
known to the Constitution; its juris-
diction is limited; the qualifications
81 - members are that they must

A BROADWAY FARM.

Stewart, Astor and Vanderbilt
are gone, and now the richest repre-
sentative of the old families is Peter
Goelet, an excentric old bachelor
who lives on the corn er of Broadway
and Nineteenth Street, in the most
expensive section of the street. Goe-
let's wealth is estimated at from
twenty to thirty millions, the most
of it having been made by his great
grandfather and grandfather in the
hardware trade. 1t is the old story.
A French emigrant commenced the
hardware trade before the revolu-
ton, and by hard work made money.
Every dollar made was invested in
farming lands a mile or more from
the store down town, and for three
generations this has been the rule.
What were farming lands then is
covered with six story buildings
now, and what the first Goelet
bought for twenty dollars an acre is
worth to-day hundreds of thousands.
There are two left of them, Peter,
the bachelor, being the best known.
He occupies several lots on the cor
ner of Nineteenth Street and Broad.
way for a residence; the property
being worth, probably, two-hundred
thousand dollars, and he keeps it
that he may have room for a COW,
dozen guinea hens, stork or two,
and fine lot of chickens. "Uncle
Peter" as he is called, has passion
for this kind of farming, and he
keeps this splendid property idle
that he may indulge his whim. He
doesn't put dollar into pictures or
books; he hasn't single piece of
sculpture; he never travels or sees
anything; never takes part in any
public enterprise; but the money
that other men put into such things
he squanders on his COW and chick
ems. Counting interest, it costs him
twenty thousand dollars per yearto
keep that COW, which makes the milk
come, l should suppose. at about a

The respective eaucuses have now nomi-
mated the members of the inquest on the
part of the two branches of Congress: SEN
ate-Edmunds, Morton and Frelinghuy-
son, Republicans, and Thurman and Bay
ard, Democrats. House-Payne, Hunton
and Abbott, Democrats, Garfield and Hoar,
Republicans. Edmunds and Morton will
rank with Thurman and Bayard in ability;
but no one supposes that any Of the Demo-
cratic members will consider anything law
which does not count in Tilden Upon
the announcement that Garfield and Hoar
were nominated, the democratic papers de-
clared that there was one Republican mem
Der assured who would vote to go behind
the returns. They meant Hoar, of course,
but we suppose the wish was father to the
thought
The gentleman named above in the eau
cuses, were duly elected, and constitute,
as far as the two houses of Congress are
concerned, the commission for counting
the votes for President, and settling the
terms OF this Republican surrender. Gar
fields independent and outspoken opposi-
ton to the scheme very naturally brought
down upon him the hostility of some 95
Democrats, who refused to vote for him,
and some Of the party made use Of their
wit in an effort to insult him, while voting.
The argument he made againgt the bill
was certainly not surpassed, If indeed,
squalled, by any other made. He received
the unanimous vote of his Republican
friends, and his constituents will feel
sense of pride over the soundness Of his
views uttered, and his manly bearing in
the course taken by him to deisat the bill

the second section of the second ar
ticle of the Constitution provides
that call officers of the United States
whose appointments are not herein
otherwise provided for, and which
shall be established by law" shall
be nominated by the President. The
President, the courts, and the heads
of departments are alone given the
constitutional capacity to become re-
positories of the appointing power.
The method of appointing this COM
mission ignores all constitutional re-
positories and vests it in Congress,
hitherto excluded. By this bring
ing in the Supreme Court we have
either the anomalous spectacle of
number of members of the Senate
and House exercising the jurisdic-
ton of Judiciary, or the equally
anomalous spectacle of the Supreme
Court exercising functions of the
Legislature. Either assumption is
absurd. The Constitution prohibits
any Senator or Representative from
acting in any Office which shall be
created during the time for which
he was elected, and no person hold
ing Office under the United States
shall be a member of either house of
Congress. If this commission is not
a civil Office what is it? Judge
West argues these points at length,
and presents many other new ideas
and objections to this measure.

The PresIaenr. Special Message.

AAC EEC9leACAAHB > RCCA1A uAC881BCa
The President has returned to the
Senate the bill to create an inquest
on the election of President, with
his signature, and a message, COM
mending the bill as a wise and con-
stitutional means of escape from the
imminent peril which threatens the
institutions of the country. The
President is clearly of the opinion
that when there is any dispute as to
the election, Congress has power to
decide. Therefore, all that is neces-
sary to take any election to Con-
gress by appeal, is to raise dispute
such, for example, as to have per-
son who was not elected, constitute
himself an Electoral College, in the
manner of Cronin.
The Presidents clear conviction
that the bill is constitutional, is very
gratifying and will probably satisfy
the doubts of many. He also i'm
presses its wisdom by reference to
history. He observes that 'In all
records of history controversies have
arisen as to succession or choice of
chiefs of States" Therefore, he
concludes that "no party or citizen,
loving their country and its free in
stitutions, can sacrifice too much of
mere feeling in preserving, through
the upright course of law, their
country from the smallest danger to
its peace on such an occasion"
The composition is unquestionably
his own, and the language and SEN
timents are equally admirable. He
adds, with the same striking peril
nency, that sit can not be impressed
too firmly upon all people that
true liberty and real progress can
exist only through cheerful adher-
ence to constitutional law" Yet
we suppose that this adherence is to
be subject to the threats of any de-
feated party if their candidate shall
not be counted in. In that case, or
in the controversies which have
arisen in all the records of history,
no one can sacrifice too much of
mere feeling to save their country
from the smallest danger to its
peace on such an occasion.
The Presidents message approves
his patriotism, and should confound
the party which recently assaiied
him as preferring the military way
of arbitrating, and as getting ready
the army and navy for that purpose.
If that party were susceptible of
shame, this message would shame it
And as an opinion on the constitu.
tionality of the bill, it will rank
with the speeches of Edmunds,
Conkling, Bayard, and Thurman.

One interesting complication viii occur
to those who have given the electoral bill
careful attention. Suppose its constitu-

five out of the nine Justices must sit in
judgment on themselves as arbitrators. Is
it not just possible that the last eomplica-
ton would be worse than the first?
