The Supervisors Again.

We regret to say that at the pre-
cent writing, the Indications are that
the Democratic Congress will adopt
q compromise on the Supervisor
question.
The Democratic Caucus Commit
tees have proposed II bill requiring
the abolition of the test oath for
Jurors, the discon;inuance ofthc use Of
soldiers at the polls, but allowing two
supervisors at each poll, n rpGintcd
from each political party, to act only
in the capacity of witnesses aud
c%halleugers, and to be sliorn of their
usual latitude for evil. We say can
did'y we don't like the compromise
Wo are not i'll a position to know
what vi Democratic leaders at
Washington do; but to US it smocks
strongly Of weakness and an aban-
donment of principle.
This whole matter is Republican
fp!ities! legislation enacted & cew
years back, when tho E2publi:a us
were i'll power, solely t, help their
party, ard il is also wholly uncon-
stitutional. It is q direct infri ge-
ment of the rights of the State, and
totaily rerugnant 10 Democratic
principles. Why, then, now that the
Democrats are in power, shou. d they
hesitate to remove what was cna clcd
for their special injury? Why ac-
quiesce in and endorse what they
know to be unconstitutional and thus
stul,i:y themselves before the cou.l-
try? q
The Electoral Commission com
promise should he a warning for al
future time. By it we lost tho Presi-
dency in 1876; and, if We do not
profit by the past. We will lose j,
again inelSSO.
4, When we know what Is high. let us
adhere TO it regardless OF con c.
quences: L.'
