ST. JEROME EDMUNDs's anxiety TO prevent
future thefts Of the Presidency is cdiiyng. Yes
to-day he reported TO the Senate. from the Sc
lect Committee, Of which he IL the chairman. a
bill cnacting that each State shall make pro-
vision by law for the adjudication Of any dis
putes which may arise as TO its choice Of cleo
tors and the decision of the State tribunal shall
be conclusive II there are two sets of electoral
votes forwarded TO Washington, and there has
been no decision 10y the State tribunal, and the
two Houses Of Congress cannot agree as to
which of the two is the lawful one. neither shall
be counted On the other hand. If there is but
one certificate from a State it shall be counted,
unless both Houses agree to throw il out 1t
appears that all the members Of the Select Com
mtec do not share Mr.. EDMUNDss satisfaction
with this bill; Mr.. THURMAN. for one, has al
ready sgnihed his dissent.
After passing the bill to give this judicial cir
cuit-New York. Vermont. and Connecicut-an
additional Judge, the Senate settled down again
to the task Of fitting out the District Of Columbia
with a government. A proposition by the I'M
memorial HAMLIN TO levy poll tax upon all the
male inhabitants Of voting age called out half
serious half Iocose protest from Mr. WHITE OF
Maryland but was adopted notwithstanding
The section relating TO street repairs gave rise
to brief but interesting discussion. in the
course OF which Mr.. DORSEY announced that
there we're at that moment 100000 yards Of
pavement in Washington that needed to be re-
placed; Mr., BAYARD censured the extravagancc
of army officers and Mr. BECK asserted that
one-half the money voted by Congress for i'm.
proyements in the Boss SHEPHERD epoch had
been diverted TO corrupt uses.

plicit denial or an explanation. Asked directly.

Our attention has been called
to recent case of axe hacking on
the railing of the bridge over New.
tou's creek. 1t is really shame TO
see the way the railing is cut up.
The outrage must have been COM
mitted out of pure cussedness.
Should the perpetrator be discov-
cred we are assured that he will be
promptly arrested and punished
severely, as he deserves.
Speaking of the low grade of
men who aspire TO official position in
this country, Gn exchange truthtully
remarks: "It is q notorious fact that
that mems perslstency in seeking
office Is in direct proportion to their
unftness fer it. Men of real worth
and recognized qualifications for
official station ars generally modest
and hesitate to thrust themselves
forward, and so are outstripped by
shallower men,"
We are glad to be able to state
that Superior is to have a ferry boat
during the coming season Of nayi-
CATION. Geo. L. Brooks has de-
cided to build such boat, and has
engaged VIM. Howenstine and
Chas. Boettcher TO do the work.
Tbs boat is to be flush built, 81 feet
keel, II feet beam, 3 feet 10 inches
depth Of hold. The machinery, 7
horse power, is now beng manu-
featured at Syracuse, n. Y, and
will arrive here by rail early in
April. The boat will seat comfort
ably Is persons, besides having
room for small treights. A small
scow will be used for heavy freight.
1t is expected to make the run be-
tween Superior and Duluth in thirty
minutes. Mess. Boettcher and
Howenstine have already com
menced work in the Coburn ware
house on Quebec Pier, and will
have the boat ready to launch by
the first of May or sooner. We are
"right down" glad of this enterprise
on the part of Mr.. Brooks, and trust
he will find in it as much profit az
the travellers viii convenience.
