IAN OPINION AS Is AN OPINION

A noticeable, a conspicuous fault of Sen
ator Logan is his unconqucrablc penchant
to talk. He talks too much--feels called
upon to "risc in his place" entirely too
often. The result is that henot untrcquent-
ly gives voice TO great volume OF words
that mean nothing. He talks trothily.
When he prepares his "cXtemporancous"
eforts-whcn he brings in the Iron hail, "
and shattered columns Of liberty" he Is,
usually, equal to the occasion; but upon all
possible occasions he bounccs into debate
without giving the matter in hand n mo-
ments thought, trusting to the inspiration
of the time to suggest something appropri-
ate. As everything a United States Sena-
tor says is published broadcast over the
country, no Senator should talk unless he
has something TO say. If such a custom
had prevailed, Logan most certainly would
have been choked off when, ten years ago,
he attempted to speak to the question of
Georgia's rc-admission into the Union. The
mythical Jack Bunsby and Widow Bedott,
are laid completely in the shade by his re-
marks on that occasion. We don't pretend to
say that Logan can't make good speech,
and an able one for we know he can, but
while this is true, it is also true that no
prom inent man in America has made halt
as many poor ones. Take away Logans voice
style and animation and he would except
on extraordinary occasions, sink to the level
of--Kuykendall.
The following extract is from his speech
on Georgia, and although not an average
sample, it certainly indicates the character
of the whole speech

If WE MUST. WE WILL,

The Jonesboro Gazette holds, With THE
CA1Ro BULLETIN, that judicial elections
should not be degraded to the plane of
PARTY contests. In the hope OF separating
them from politics our law makers fixed
upon a time for holding them when, it was
measurable, the people would not be agi-
tated' by the consideration or discussion Of
political questions. But, as the Gazette
Gays, if the Republicans now insist upon a
party consest, il that party inaugurates
measures looking TO the holding off CON
vention, the Democracy of the circuit must
and will, do the same. Tie vote thrown
last November shows the circuit to be Demo
cratic by few hundred votes. AS all the
able stumpers belong to the Democratic
side of the political house, and as the gen
tlemen who would, most likely, obtain the
Democratic nomination, are known as the
most popular, indcfatigable and effective
canvassers in tle State, the majority would
be run up to two thousand votes. Hence,
the refusal of the Democrats to accept the
Republican challenge, would be an exhibi-
zion Of cowardicc OF which the Democratic
party does not propose to be guilty. II
would be cowardly were the party IN 0
hopeless minority; but, with victory assureC
il would be party suicide. Our Republican
friends may take it for granted, therefore
that they will not be permitted to take ad-
vantage Of Democratic indifference Or di.
vision, to run in a full ticket of Republi
can nominees. That game is as good as

THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE MAN-HIS
MOUTH,

The Chicago Tribune is not a recognized
pet in the Republican household, tor the
reason, in part, that it doesn't regard John
A. Logan greater statesman than was
Charles Sumner, and purer man than was
Willard Fillmore. But the Tribune very
frequently INDUCES in the luxury of telling
the truth--a habit that keeps Republican
leaders in constant suspense is very
reckless as general thing, concerning
consequences. 1t tells the Republican
party that it made most stupid and mex
cusable blundcr in not passing the anti
Chinese bill, over the veto. Not that he.
of the Tribune, wanted to relieve the Pa
cifc coast of the curse of great and grow
ing hordes of Mongolians; not that he
cared anything about the suferings and
privations of the tens of thousands of la
borers there of Caucasian blood. He
cared nothing about the disease and squaor,
the idleness and suffering chargeable to the
presence ofthe Chinese elementin California
Not he. He viewed the matter solely from
a political watch-tower, and contemplating
it therefrom, he cxclaims, with a visable
twingc Of evaporation and disgust at Re.

the bill over the veto may prove n national

THE PEOPLE MIsREPREsENrED.
The Representation in Congress Not EeaiIy
Based Upon Population, hteIIi.
pence, Or Taxation.

When Senator Conkling delivered his
elaborate speech in congress in opposi.
ton to the repeal of the Federal cleo.
ton law he was most powerful in the
comparisons that he made between the
constituency of those who then endeav-
ored to precipitate revolution, by their
violent speeches and distrustful acts,
and those conservative, clear-headed
men who valiautly defended the consti-
tuition. He showed that the rebel ele.
ment and its backing Of hot-headism
from northern states represented but q
small portion of the area, the suffrages,
the wealth, the culture, and the intiu-
ence of the Union.
Since that speech was delivered the
eyes of many sensible people have been
directed towards the glsring incongrui.
ties of the present political situation ut
Washington. And the incongruity in.
v0lved in the national congress that
constitutes tho most striking parody on
the principles of universal suffrage, self
and self.government is
the fact that in the United States
Senate the Democracy now has 40 votes,
(28 from the South II from the North,
and the House has 1855 votes 600 from
the South and IS from the North). The

New York Marriage Statistics.

From the annual report of the New
York Board of Health for the past year
the following extracts are taken: Two
native Cinnamon married Irish women,
three were married to women born in
the United States. The total number
of marriages during the year was 1929,
and of this number 1886 were white
males, and 7 AT females, and 1914 colored
males and 1872 colored females. This
shows that twelve white females married
colored men. Seventy-one males and
thirty-three females were married for
the third time, and two males for the
fourth time. Ten males and one fe-
male were married between 20 and 80
years, and one male between 80 and go
years. Five thousand three hundred
and sixty-nine marriages between bach
elors and spinsters took place; 484
bachelors married widows. The mar
riage rate of this city, like the birth
rate, is not complete, there being 704
marriages to every 10000 of popula-
ton.
