Washington which certified that fact Afterward,
Oh account OfsOme supposed informality, It was
deemed advisable to procure another set which
only differed from the first In matter Of form
and not of substance 1t further appears that when
the last set was drawn up Of the electors being
absent, some one assumed the authority to sign his
name. That j. denounced rs forgery. Forgery

the Senate. The pcnding casc of senstcr
MATTHEWS presents remarkable instmec
of q want of respect toward that gentlernnn
and tho body of which he Is nn honored
member The common courtedes hold IN
respect between coordinate branches OF
legislative bodies under circumstances SINH
lar to those which attend the case Of Mr..
MATTHEWS have been ignored by the PoT-
TER committee, for instead of presenting the
case to the Senate, as Is usual, and asking
its leave for Mr.. NJ. to appear before the
committee and testify, the request was
signed by the clerk, instead of the CHAIR
man, and sent directly to him, thereby
showing n want Of respect for ordinary
parliamentary usage and courtesy. Whether
1t was the wiscst thing for Mr.. MATTHEWS
to do under the circumstances to decline to
appear and testify, is quite another question
but that he is fully justified in pursuing
his present course there Is no doubt. The
action OF the committee toward the Senate
is not respectful, and it will do no harm for
II to be taught that the amenities which be-
lOllH 10 tne CO-Orulnate relAt OnS Ol tne TWO
bodies should be observed. The violation
Of these courtesies by the committee may
have led Senator MATTHEWS to assume the
attitude he now occupies, and, If 50, he is
perfectly right in his present position and
should hold it firmly until the commit, G
shall have approached him in more re-
spectiui manner and under the usual forms
prescribed in parliamentary law.
When this shall have been done and the
committee shall have put itself in rapport
with the Senate in becoming manner,
then 1t is to be hoped that Senator MAT
TIiEws will promptly appear before the
committee and give ii the full benefit Of his
knowledge of the facts relating to the mat
ters under investigation. To decline to tes-
tiiy will afford the widest license for i'm

Newspaper Mathematics.

To he Editor oflhe National RrpubiioD:
Sir Knowing you To be person skilled In the
art ofprntins and in the science Of mathematics,
have prepared the following data from which I
desire you to solve tho problem to be stated below
The Washington Pya claims an average daily
circulation Of 1890 copies. These copies are
printed on single-cylinder press capable Of work
ing up To speed of not to exceed 800 impressions
an hour. Every paper requires two impressions
The total number OF impressions daily would there
fore be 2lSO. According to my algebra, so goes
into e5SD a little over seventeen times which
would be seventeen hours' of press work every day
in the cellar of the veracious Iiis establishment
The first side Of the Post goes to press between
twelve and one o'clock at night the last at halfpast
three or four. The paper Is all worked off and the
forms are washed and returned to the composing
room by six o'clock, on an average. This gives al.
!er deducting necessary delays, an average of four
hours press.wO III which 500 impressions
could be made. Divide this by two. and you have
the number of complete papers turned out by tho
EOsrS single.cylinder press.
Now my query Is this: Can you make an equation
from the foregoing statement that will show how
much Hutchins pays his oyerworked prcSsman
for running of those "l2,9)J' copies also if n rat
prcssman Is worth e day of ten hours. how much
should he be paid for a day of seventeen hours?

rHoGREs, OF IHE CoSspIR,cy

We are not disposed to prcjudge the re-

much severity, but it now looks as if it
would prove fizzlc Of fair magnitude. In

disguised. 1t was-tO usr the classic rhra. G

chief engineer Of this mnrhmc-the Hon,

HAYES Is to be d"p0scd from power through
the pending investigation. This is tho ont
look ilOm the Democratic standpOiut, Now
let us take a hasly survey Of the conspiracy
itself and its investigation which has been
vigorously nun for week, with its swiftest
witnesses on the stand. Thus far the re-
coil Of its artillery has been far more
damaging than its proicctilcs The
only fact Of any Importance to the
main qncstion-thU validity of the Prcsi-
dental Iitle-as yet established is that the
most important witness put upon the stand
Is confessed prrurer, who is not liable to
tell the truth even when it is best and easiest.
Then again, thus far the testimony Of MCLIN
docs not establish any fraud or corruption
beyond what was considered and passed
upon by the Electoral Commission. Hence,
thus far no hcadway whatever has been
made against the validity Of the title. It
now looks Us if the title Of the President

THE QUESTION: or PRIVILEGE,

The CONSTITUTION Of the Unlcd States and
the parliamentary law that has been trans
fcrrcd from the usagcs of Great Britain to
our own Legislative bodies recognize certain
privileges on the part of the Representative
OF the people in both branches of Congress,
which have been treated with marked re-
spect heretofore. Present indications point
directly to growing disregard for these
privileges on the part Of the House toward
