the position taken by the Governor Of Iowa,
his action Is truly inexpleable. In October,
1876, when Colorado voted to organize as a
State. Mr. Belford was elected to Congress.
Colorado, not being q State ct the time Of Its
passage, the modified act Of 1875 did not
apply to that State, and Bedford was accord
ingly declared not elected by the present Con-
gress and his seat was given to Patterson,
who afforded proof Of his having been elected
on the day fixed by the act of Congress
Colorado has repeated this year the folly Of
1916, and Bedford has again been elected In
October. AS the act of Congress Is one which
must necessarily be interpreted by Congress
itself, since 1t regulates matter upon which
Congress has the exclusive right to pass, 1t Is
hardly probable that Bedford will get bis seat
which was refused him under exactly the
same circumstances In 1876 by Democratic
Congress- We SEQ no difference between the
case Of Iowa and that Of Colorado

In view OF the Afghanlstan war the English
papers are displaying great deal of alarm
over the immense armies maintained by the
different native Indian princes. BY combin
ing these rulers could easily put In the field
not less than 100000 well disciplined and gu
perbly armed troops. The control of this i'm
mense force is Of the utmost importance to
England There are no approximations In case
OF British success, but q disastrous defeat In
Afghanistan, like that the British suffered
there forty years ago. might have the result
OF shaking the allegiance Of these rajahg and
maharajahs. This possibility Is by no means
pleasing prospect, and is not the least in
terestfng complication growing out of the i'm
pending war.

The attention OF the voters Of this State is
called to the proceedings, during several
months past of the Grand Council Of the Ma
tive American Association of this city, printed
I'm another column this morning. We print
much of the proceedings of this organization
which Is mere routine for the purpose of show
Ing our readers that we are III full possessi ion
of the secrets and proceedings of the organi-
cation.
Tomorrow we will print further informa-
tion which will startle civilized community
depending upon law and order for its pros
,-perity and advancement. The information in
oar hands has been gathered during period
OF three or four months, and may be relied on
rs entirely correct. 1t is evident from the
proceedings published that the National
and the Republican parties are one
and the same thing In Louisiana, and that this
mongrel organization Is absolutely under the
control OF the worst and most obnoxious lead

THE SHOOTING OF sCANLON.

We have already said many times that this
community Was tired and Disguised with the
loose way in which some Of our policemen use
their weapons against recalcitrant breakers
OF the peace. Yesterday mornings DEMO
GRAFT gave short account of the shooting, by
a policeman, Of poor fellow who had been
indulging in liquor, and who, of course resist
ed arrest. The statement is graphic aad elo-
quent in its simplicity. The reporter says !:
Patrolman Hardwicle's statement is to the
effect that he found Scanlon drunk, lying on
the banguette, at the corner OF Elysian Fields
and st. Claude streets: that he requested him
to go home, but he declined to do So When
.,e attempted to arrest him he resisted and he
shot. -
We had always thought that the duty u d
policeman was to protect the lives, the lib
erty and the property Of our citizens We
did not know that their calling wns to murder
drunken people because they would not follow
them to jail drunken man is always con-
trary, and il our guardians make practice
Of shooting all such, our death list will un-
doubtedly increase considerably. Under the
Radical regime the metropoIitans wore their
pistols rs q menace, and used them inds-
criminately against fleeing thieves or object
ing citizens. We believe that these practices
ought to be otliterated. The life of any cti-
zen is precious. and must not be sacrificed by
q policeman ut his own free will. When he
uses his revolver it ought to be only in imme-
diate defense Of his own life. If he acts other
wise and shoots q drunken man, just to save
trouble it is murder.

A man and woman suddenly appeared In
the office Of q Vermont justice of the peace
the other day and solemnly made and sub
soribed to the following oath "What we say
10 each other shall be the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth" They paid
che fec and left without ceremony, doubtless,
TO take the thing out on basis OF strict
veraclty. A conversation on that sort of an
arrangement between Tiden and Hayes
would be interesting. Tilden has made &
pretty square talk on the Tribune cipher dis
patches. Can't Hayes let US hear from him

Mr. J. Henry Behan, the Democratic can-
slidate for Administrator of Commerce, has
promptly and fully responded to the sugges-
tion of the DEMOCRAT, that the candidates Of
the Odd Fellows Hall convention make full
declaration of their views and principles.
Mr.. Behan will favor every measure of re-
frenchment and reform. and will use bis in
Huence to repeal the charter of every existing
monopoly. We can cordially support Mr.,
Behan on the basis of his letter printed in
another column. Let us have n confession of
principles from the other candidates on our
ticket; especially from the candidates for the
Senate and House of Representatives..

The national bank and bondholding papers
are all rejoicing over what they are pleased
to call the overwhelming defeat Of Mr.. Thur
mans "Ohio idee," oil Of which we are told to
believe resulted from the devotion of the
conservative masses" TO hard money Let
lis see about this. The plurality for the Re-
publican State ticket is just 1854. 1t Is in o
minority, however of nearly 10000. The
mild or Democratic phase of the ''Ohio idee'
and tho exaggerated or Greenback phase,
combined, cast majority of nearly 10000
votes. This does not look like the "Ohio
idee' had suffered much of O. set back. And,
then, there are those three congressman
gained. Thurman stock Is not so far below
par as we are asked to believe

years plundered this State.
We reserve further comment on this matter
until the balance of the information In our
possession is published We call the atten~
ton, however, of the voters of the First and

AS to Mrs. Hicks who in New York mar
ried last week the wealthy Mr.. Lord, aged
eighty or more
SIN 1870 Mrs. Hicks made her first visit
to Europe. Having letters OF introduction
to members OF the British nobility from
friends in this city, she was welcomed in
London, and from thence she went to Paris.
AT the time OF the Ecumenical Council Mrs.
Hicks went 10 Rome. There she was well
coined by several American Catholic ladies,
among whom were the benevolent Mrs.
Peters, of Cincinnati; Miss Polk, the sister
OF ex-President James il. Polk, add Miss
Carroll, OF Baltimore. They introduced
her to the members of the Catholic HER
archy and she devoted herself to entertain
ing them. Mgr. Capel was then in Rome,
and his lectures were attended by ali So
ciety people. Mrs. Hicks went with her
friends to hear him, and. was introduced to
the eloquent divine. She invited him to
her receptions, and be attended them with
his noble convert, the Marquis Of Butte.
Mgr. Chatard. president OF the American
College in Rome, was also one OF her
guests, and she gave special entertainment
to the American hierarchy. among whom
Archbishop McCloskey, and Bishop McGilI,
OF Richmond, Va, became her particular
friends. Mrs. Hicks conversed repeatedly
with these divines and Mgr. Capel, and,
being overcome by their arguments, she en-
tered the Catholic Church. Mgr. Capel
and Bishop McGill were her sponsors.

HAVANA, January 5.--The British mail
steamer brings the following
Citysof Eerico, December 30. Secretary
OF State Romero has been granted two
months leave OF absence to reereute his
health. Public opinion favors Romero as
Minister Of Foreigll Relations on account Of
his intimate acquaintance with the Ameri-
can people. The friends OF Valarte, On the
other hand, declare this qualification to be
an objection, stating that Mexico is not to
be pinned to the cufs OF the American ma
ton. President Diaz pretends to entertain
anti-European sentiments, and isapparentlT
counting on close alliance with the United
States Government. General Negrete has
been appointed military commander Of
the federal district in place of Con
zales. The latter has not taken charge
of the War Department. The Government
mistrusts Negrete. Outside Of the capital
the unsettled condition OF the border is
hardly discussed. The press is disposed to
be cautious on the subject.
Before adiourning Congress authorized
the construction OF the following railroads:
From the City Of Mexico to Morelia, from
Cetaya to PalmelIos, and from Metusco to
:Packula.
"A convoy carrying 100000 in silver was
robbed in the district Of Modoco. The rob
bers escaped.
