THE Republican triumph in New York is a
personal triumph for Senator Conkling, for
the recognized issue in the campaign was
the choice OF his successor. tis now clear
beyond doubt that he will be his own sue
cessor. The state fNew York when brought
to the test gladly recognizes the conspicuous
merits and patriotism of her great Senator.
She may grumbe at him sometimes, but her
complaint is the complaint of exacting
affection.

Montgomery Blair is reported to have
said that the Florida confessions do
not surprise him because he has known
for several weeks that they were in
preparation. We must therefore con-
clude that Mr.. Blair was a conidant
and accomplice Of the person or per-
sons who was sen to Florida and sup
piled with money.
The idea of Mr.. Blair and his hacker
or hackers that a batch of confessions
would strengthen their chances wa
pure Stiffness. Such a bill as that
which has been referred to the Judi
ciary Committee, would be of no avail,
even if it could pass both houses and
receive the signature of the President,
because 1t is in plain conflict with the
constitution. The only action the Su-
preme Court would ever take in pursu-
ance of it would he to declare 1t uncon-
stitutional and void. 1t has been as
serted that although the two houses of
Congress have no authority, when
counting the electoral votes, to Judge
of the election of members of the Elec-
toral Colleges, yet Congress as the law
making power possesses such authority.
This is a frivolous and futile distinc-
ton. After enumerating the powers
Of Congress the constitution goes on
to declare that it has authority ''to
make all laws which shall be necessary
and proper for carrying into execution
the foregoing powers, and all other
powers vested by this constitution in
the government Of the United States,
or any department OF officer thereof. y
Now, the power to judge of the cleo,
ton Of Presidential electors is moi
among the enumerated powers, mol
among the powers vested in the govern
ment of the United States or in any o.
its departments or officers. Congress.
} has no power to-pass a law for inter
fering with or reviewing the appoint
ment of Presidential electors. The con
s~titution declares that these shall b,
appointed ''by each State in such
manner as the Legislature thereof ma.
direct" This is not q power vested il
the government Of the United States
but in the respective legislatures of tn,
: States, and therefore Congress can pas
r no law in relation to it. From tn
time that the electors meet and vot
: the subject comes within the jurisdic
: ton of the federal government; bu
Congress can take no cognizance O
anything that occurs previous to thei
appointment, because their appoint
ment is vested exclusively in the Stat
Legislatures.
