Il REPUBLICAN, THREAT

The Republican papers are still threaten
ing-for what purpose does not appear
that if the elections in Indiana and Ohio next
month 60 against the Republican party the
legislature of New York will be convened in
extra session for the purpose of changing
the law as to the choosing of Presidential
electors. The law at present commits this
duty to the people, but it is proposed that
the legislature, which is at present largely
Republican, shall take the privilege out of
their hands and choose an electoral ticket
favorable to Garfield and Arthur.
There is no doubt but the Republicans are
capable of such revolutionary expedient to
defeat the will of the people. Even now
they are desperate with the certainty of de-
feat. They see the handwriting On the wall
which warns them that they are shortly to
be dispossessed of the trust they have so
long abused. In order to circumvent fate,
however. they are willing to resort to any ex-
pedie at, no matter how disreputable, even to
revolution itself, which the plan proposed
would, in effect, be. But there is no slight
obstacle in the way of the consummation of
this scheme that those who have suggested
1t do not seem to have considered. It is a
provision of the constitution of the State
which provides that the governor of the
State may call an extraordinary session of
the legislature in times of public emergency
by giving notice thereof at least thirty DAYS
prior to its convention. The October cleo
lions do not take place till the 18th of the
month. At least three days will elapse be-
fore the result can be definitely known. This
will leave but eighteen days intervening be-
fore the Presidential election, which takes
place on the I'd of November. 1t will be
impossible for Governor Cornell to convene
the legislature in that time, and if he
has any intention of aiding in the
preparation of such crime upon
the freedom of the suffrage he will have to
issue his call without delay.
1t is true that the legislature of State
has the power to prescribe the mode of
choosing Presidential electors, and while the
plan proposed by the Republicans would be
technically legal it would be none the less
crime. Heretofore the people have e1er-
cised the privilege of choosing their electors
at general election. To take away this
privilege without notice, and without giving
the people chance to express their views,
would be proceeding so outrageous as to
merit the condemnation of men of all par
ties. 1t certainly would be resented by the
people of other States in such a manner as

BOARD PUBLIC WORRS.

The Rondo Street ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Street Assessmen t-Both Laid Over to
Consider Protests-Exchange Street Sew
or Awarded to Henry Starkey-Estimstes
Approved.
The board of public works held regular
meeting yesterday afternoon. Owing to the
absence from the city of two members of
the board for some time past there had been
no quorum, and hence large amount of
business had accumulated. There was full
board yesterday, and the following is an
epitome of the business transacted.
The matter of the assessment for grading
Rondo street from Western avenue to Rice
street came up on protest from certain
property owners who we're represented by
John w. White, ESQ.,, who claimed that the
contract was not let to the lowest bidder;
second, that the improvement was of no ben
eft to the property along the line, but on the
contrary was detriment. The venerable
Father Raveau also protested against the as
sessment on the same grounds. The matter
was finally laid over for one week for final
action.
The matter of the assessment for grading
Mackubin street was next taken up, and
James B. Beals, ESQ.,, representing num-
Der of the property owners, objected to the
assessment upon the grounds that the same
was not made upon such property in proper
ton, as nearly as may be, to the benefit result
ing thereto, as required by law. Under rule
of the board the expense of grading. a street
is assessed upon the property fronting or
lying along said street, in proportion to its
frontage on said street. Mr.. Beals argued
at length that this rule was contrary to law
and that the assessment made under it was
void. The matter was finally postponed
without final action for two weeks.
A protest against sidewalk on the westerly
side of Broadway street, by number of resi-
dents, was referred to the city engineer.
Bids for the construction of the
Exchange street sewer were opened as
follows: John Mullen 1895; Henry Star
key 1920. The contract was awarded to
Henry Starkey.
The assessment for constructing a sewer
on Ninth street, from Exchange to Fort
street, was confirmed.
Messrs. Boyer & Lux were allowed to
withdraw their bids for grading Pleasant
and Maria avenues.
The clerk was directed to advertise for
bids on the various sidewalks ordered by the
council.
The assessment for constructing sewer
on Eighth street, from Broadway to Tem-
perencs street, was confirmed.
The following estimates we're approved,
viz: John Mullen, estimate No. 1, for sewer
on Eighth aud Cedar streets, $571.63: Dan
iel Mullen, final estimate on Fort street Gull
vert and grading, $522.23; Carr & Steinkamp,
estimate No. 2, Mount Airy and Broadway
grading, $773. so; @. L. Miller, estimate No.
Z, on Kittson's addition sewer, $5.706.05.
Board adjourned.

The best informed Republicans have given
up all hope of carrying Virginia, even with
they say, have no organization, and the ma
jority of the voters have not paid their poll
tax and hence will be disfranchised. The
regular Democratic ticket, they admit, will
have a clear majority in the whole State,
and neither the readjusters nor the Repub-
licans or both combined can prevent the
success of the electoral ticket supported by
the regulars. 1.-THE Republicans rely upon
carrying any of the Southern States they
will find that they have been leaning upon a
broken reed.

would make the Republicans fancy the day
of doom had come. Yet there is little dam
ger that it will be attempted. The Repub-
licans know that it would be boomerang,
and do them far more harm than the good
they would derive from it. There is no oc-
oasion for anxiety on the subject at present.
When the first step is taken in earnest it
will be time enough to borrow trouble. The
fact, however, that the matter is being &C.
riously discussed by the newspapers of the
Republican persuasion illustrates TO what
straits they have been driven by the pros
poets of sweeping Democratic success in
November.

WE are not quite certain, but we believe

stead of decreasing has since increased

THERE is prospect that the polling places
in Chicago will be nearly doubled in number
before the election. This will enable every
voter to cast his ballot without Inconvenience,
and the result will be shown in largely in
creased vote and considerable Democratic
majority. 1t will also place check upon
illegal voting, for the judges of election will
have better opportunity to examine voters
than they have heretofore had, on account of
the rush of citizens anxious to deposit their

The President Among the Gold Mines


CHICO. CAL, Sept. 24.-The Presidential
party left Chico this evening with delega-
ton of citizens for Spring Valley Mime; at
Cherokee Flat they were received with an
anvil salute and repast prepared for them.
Several blasts had been prepared and were set
off in the presence of the party, after which
piping commenced, showing the marvellous
power of the hydraulic. The party were con-
Quoted to the sluices, where Mr. Waldtey
opened one of the rifles and took handful Of
amalgam, In which there was probably three
hundred dollars in gold, aud presented the
lump to Mrs. Hayes. Mrs. Hayes set off enc
blast of $500 pounds of powder, which made
little noise, but broke up large area of
ground. A large crowd had assembled from
various mining camps, and people were pro-
fuse in their welcome to the party. After
spending about an hour and a half at the mine
the party left for Chico, and proceeded i'm

There is no denying the fact that this was
the strongest nomination that the Democrats
could have made, for it must be conceded that
Gen. 6ibley is less vulnerable than almost any
man of that party in the State. His long and
faithful public service, his spotless character,
purity of motives and honorable dignity of
purpose, never allowing himself to grorel in
the mud of political intrigue or corruption,
have made him trusted favorite which the peo-
pie, even in the heat of an excited Presidential
campaign, will not entirely ignore.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 2S.-The President and
party reviewed the stock par ade on the fair
grounds this morning, which drew an immense
and enthusiastic crowd. After the crowd the
party took a special train for Chico. At
Wheatland the train stopped for a few minutes,
and the President made few remarks in re-
Spouse to the really heartfelt ovation Of the
people of the town and vicinity, who had con-
gregated in large masses. The party arrived
at Chico at 8 P. M, and were received by the
militia, fire department and great crowds of peo-
pie from the city and surrounding country. A
procession escorted the party to the Bidwell
mansion, the President being cheered along
the line of march. At the mansion B. Collins
made an address of welcome, the President
replying in a speech twenty minutes long.
