IHE WATER KATE CASE.-TO-day Judge uag-
ner In the Circuit Court room heard the case OF
Carpenter agt. the District Commisstoners-bill
to restrain the enforcement of the water rates
under the recent regulations issued by the Com
mlss1oners. Mr.. B. j. Darneille appeared for
for the District. The principal point argued
was that these rates or taxes are not equal aud
uniform, and are therefore Illegal, and that the
commissioners had not the power, but consid-
cradle time was devoted to discussing whether
or not the remedy was by equity.

TELEGRAPHiC ITEMS.

The New York Sun has received the
official returns from 80 of the go
counties in the State. A close COM
parison between these and the unofficial
returns from the other ten counties in
dictate that Hoskins, the Republican
candidate for Lieutenant Governor, has
defeated Clarkson N. Potter, Democrat,
by about |, 100 majority; that Carr,
Republican candidate for Secretary of
State, is elected by nearly the same
majority; that Wadsworth, the Repub-
ican candidate for Controller, will
have an increased majority over that of
Hoskins; and that Ward and Wendell,
Republicans, are also elected as Attor-
ney-General and Treasurer. The ma
jority for Horatio Seymour, Jr., Dem
ocratic candidate for Engineer and Sur
veyor, will be. about 10000. John
kelly's vote is increased over previous
estimates, and will reach $4,000

ALLEGED CROOAEDNEss.

According to the census, New York.
City has the largest populations of any
city or the American continent. Under
the rule of the Tweed ring, which gov
erned the city for years, it was alleged
that more votes were, polled. there in
proportion to the number. of inhabit-
ants, than elsewhere in. the. United
States or in tne world, for that matter
The Tweed managers were intent on
having majority oEer all opposition,
and in this they seldom failed. Now
Philadelphia, which is also under ''ring"
rule, outrivals New York in the palm
lest days Of Tweedism. With popu-
lation of nearly 800, 900 less than New
York, 10000 more voters were regis
tered there in the recent election than
in New York, and the Republican ma
jority in the State was proportionately
increased. 1t would be high treason
to even insinuate that the ''pal ty of
great moral ideas" would resort to
fraudulent registration and repeating at
the polls to insure majority, but Gig
ures won't lie, "and they show conclu-
sively that more voters were registered
in Philadelphia at the, recent election
than in New York City.
1t now remains for the Congressional
Committee on Elections to inquire into
this matter and, if possible, explain
this discrepancy to- the people. Lat
the TRUTH, the whole truth, and moth
ipg but the truth be told, that every
body may. know why it is that a.ctty
with less than 700, 900 inhabitants can,
and does poll more votes than a. city
with population of over 100000.

AN IMPORTANT EVENT.

There will probably be vacancy in
the Fifth Congressional District of New
Jersey. Charles H. Voorhis was elected
to Congress by plurality, in conse-
quence of division in the Democratic
ranks, which resulted in the nomination
Of two Democrats, both of whom were
defeated. Voorhis was President of
the First National Bank of Hacken-
sack, and as such, obtained private
loans, from the Bank on collateral
securities. He is now accused of alb
stracting the collaterals which he de-
posted in the bank, and is under ar
rest for theft. His affairs are in such
condition as to. require his whole at
tention, and he will be compelled to
resign his. seat in Congress, unless per-
sonal or political friends make good
the amount of his stealings. There are
seven Congressman from New Jersey,
four of whom, including, Voorhis, are
Republicans, thus insuring the vote Of
the State to the Republicans in the
event of the. electionJof the next 'Presi-
dent devolving on,tsse House of Repre-
sentatives. The district which Voor-
his represents, usually elects a Demo
crat; but, as stated, in consequence of
three candidates being in the field, he
was elected by plurality of SO4, while
his vote was. 2, AGA short of majority
If he resigns, his Successor will, i'll all
probability, be Democrat, and the
vote Of the State, ii the election of
President goes to the House, would be
cast for the Democratic nominee. To
provide against such a contingency, it
is probable that the amount Of Voorhis'
defalcation will be paid to the bank,
and he VIII retain his place in Congress.

A writer in the London Daily News
has been compiling statistics of the
wages paid to ,farmlaborers in America,
aud. gives the public the benefit Of his
Investigations. The rate. ranges all the
way from S. SO per month with board,
in South. Carolina, to, $685. ina Nevada
The highest average rate of wages, it
appears, are paid in the west. In the
great. farming States the, monthly, sti-
pend, with board, is from Sl4 to, SIS.
In New England 81 to Sl2.is the cur
rent rate, and in New York. Sl3 o,$l9.
All along the Pacific Slope, it is said,
the farm. laborers can earn twice. these
wages. In Canada the rates of wages
average from $40 to $l3 per month, and
the laborefs consider that excellent. pay.
On the whole, the rates Of wages in the
United States will not suffer by COM
parison with that of other countries,
nor will the condition of the farm labor
ers. There is, after all, no country in
the world so well adapted to the labor
ing classes as our own.

desperate partisans will attempt to pre-

from voting for Presidential Electors
next year, by having the. State LegiAa-

carrying the thing a little further than
the people would stand, although the
Constitution provides that each State

Dental Electors equal to the whole
number of Senators and Representa-
tixas to which the State may be enti-
tied in Congress.
