WE trust that Republicans, whose
party has had complete official control
of the returns in. the doubtful States,
except Oregon, where there is no
question OF the actual vote or of It's
intention, will not forget that it is not
the pending election so much as all ~
ture elections and the welfare Of the
country which are to be regarded.
All the questions that have ever been
asked upon the subject, and all the
difficulties that have been suggested
are now to be simultaneously an
swered and settled And one thing,
we repeat, is indisputable: those who
reject a plainly fair and reasonable
proposition will be held responsible for
all suspense and trouble by the vast
intelligent majority of citizens of all
parties in all parts of the country

The Supreme Court at Washing

in arrears in disposing of its dockel

who is perfectly conversant with the

vote himself to providing a remedy by
the establishing of an intermediate
Court, involving the appointment OF
nine additional circuit Judges. How
far his plan will be successful remains
