The New York Herald pronounces
the popular verdict when it says:
The country is heartily tired and
sick of the everlasting Southern
question, and further agitation will
only deepen the general disgust at
politicians who are willing to subor-
dinate great interests to their ambi-
tious hopes. We are passing into a
new era, when questions relating to
the material interests of the country
will be the hinges of politics. Mr..
Blaine is attempting to ride a dead
horse, and it is preposterous to con
sumo valuable time in attempting to
prevent him.

At the last election in Massarh

At the last election in Massachu-
sets one ~case-is cited of a manufact-
urer employing several hundred OPP
eratives who ordered them all to
bring their dinner-pails and remain
within the mill throughout election
day to complete a certain piece of
work. When several insolent work
men ventured to suggest that an
election was to be held and that they
ought to go out and vote, which
could be done in half an hour, the
capitalists replied that, election or
no election, no man who went out of
the mills on that day need take the
trouble toFeturn." Th-sc ME in
tended to vote the Democratic ticket,
but they were prevented. Mr.. Blaine
will have an early opportunity to ex-
plain whether this is what he meant
by freedom of suffrage, and whether
he thinks this an appeal to honest
conviction or to intelligent self inter-
est. The fact is that there has been
far more intimidation of white votei s
by the manufacturers of the Middle
and New England States, than was
ever dreamed of in the philosophy of
Southern Democrats.

The New York Sun tells of two
crazy men who pay periodical visits
to the White House, claiming they
were regularly elected President, one
of whom p%eremptory demands the
place, while the other one says he
has come to take his seat and apollo
gizes for not having come sooner.
One of them is from Pennsylvania,
the other from near Bladensburg, the
old duelling ground near the city of
Washington. The Sun says it is a
fact that either of these lunatics have
just as much real, lawful right in the
White House as Mr.. Hayes. Not
only has Mr.. Hayes never been cleo
ted President, but he has never been
put into the office by the forms al
ways hitherto observed. As between
him and the two outside lunatics
his advantage is reduced down to
the single point of possession. In
constitutional law, they have just as
much right as he-that is, none al
all.

The law in regard to witnesses de-
handing fees before attending trial
to testify, was changed last winter,
and reads as follows. "a witness,
after the case is called for trial, and
before he is sworn, may demand his
travelling fees and fees for one days
attendance, and if the same are not
paid, he shall not be obliged TO testi-
fy; and at the commencement of the
trial, each day after the first day, he
may demand his fees for that days
attendance, and if the same IT not
paid he shall not be compelled to re
main" Persons demanding their
fees of the officers, and refusing to
60, are liable 10 be attached and pun
ished for contempt of court. This
law applies only to civil actions. Nc
demand can be made for fees in ad.
vance on criminal cases.

Tie efforts in the house last win

lican endeavors to increase them,
This year the same policy prevails.
The house cut down the salaries of
some of Hayes gllt-edged represen-
~tatives in foreign capitals and abol-
ished some of the needless consular
and diplomatic offices. The bill was
reported from the Senate committee,
with the salaries restored to their
present wasteful figure, and the use
less offices put back as in last years
bill. To the naval bill, too, the COM
mittee added nearly 81, 10000 The
money is to be screwed out of the

tiee how some of the alleged South

There are many northern states
which have statutes in force distinct
ly abridging the suffrage. Connec-
ticut requires that q voter shall be
able to read the constitution and
state statutes. Delaware requires
the voter to be a tax payer two years
before the election. Massachusetts
requires the voter to be a taxpayer.
So does New Hampshire, so does
Pennsylvania. Rhode Island re-
quires a property qualification. And
in the face of these facts, the Louis

that it is noticeable that when a

reported to the health department
that eight per cent. of the hogs in
the packing houses and stock yards

mae. Eight years ago a like exam
ination vas made and but two per
cent of the hogs then examined were
found thus infected. Yet cases of
trichinosist r not apparently be-

physicians attribute exemption from
the disease to the fact that pork is

thorough cooking which kills the

The New York World of the Goth
ult., contains a full and complete list
of members of the Forty-Sixth Con-
gress. The list purports to be an
accurate one, and shows that in the
next Congress there will be l49 Dem
%ccrats; 129 Republicans; 10 Nation
ais; one vacancy, and four yet to
elect from California. The vacancy
is caused by the death of a Republi-
can. Giving the four Californians to
the Republican side, the Democrats
will have a clear majority of five
over Republicans and Nationals.

The prospect is not very cncour-
aging for the passage by Congress
of a measure for counting the Elec-
toral votes Tor President and Vice
President, and adjudicating disput-
ed certificates. This seems surpris-
ing after the difficulty and peril the
matter gave us in 1876; but the fact
appears to be plain that both parties
are willing to leave the question open
for the purpose of taking advantage
Of it. The Republicans would not
provide a method of settlement, when
they had control of Congress, and
the Democrats are similarly reluc-
tant to do ii, in view of their pros
pective control of both houses in the
next Congress. Senator Edmunds
of Vermont has a bill before the Sen
ate, introduced at the last session,
which he is striving to persuade that
body to consider. 1t provides for
holding the Presidential election on
the first Tuesdayin October, instead
of November, and for casting the
Electoral votes in the States on the
second Monday in the following Jan
uarv. If there shall arise disputes
or contests, they are to be decided
in the States where they arise by
tribunals authorized to take cogni-
zance of them. On the second Mon
day in February Congress is to meet
in joint session to count the votes.
When there is but one return from
a State it is to be accepted, unless
both houses agree to reject it, and if,
through the failure of n State to set
tile its own disputes there shall be
two returns, then that one shall be
accepted which both houses agree
on. and if the two houses cannot
agree on either, neither shall be ac-
cepted, and the vote of the State
shall be lost.

While Grants friends are making
