The Electoral Bill.

The Electoral Bill.
st. Louis Republican.
The postponement of the Morgan rule
for counting the electoral votes makes il
clear that no new method of counting will
be adopted by the present congress, and
that the electoral questions growing out of
the approaching presidential election will
have to be adjusted under the uncertain
ties OF the present law. It is true the
postponement is only TO the first Monday
in December next; but no one hopes that
what congress has just failed to do will be
performed at the next session. When
congress meets again it will be month
after the presidential election lin the very
midst of the possible disputes which the
Morgan proposition was intended to settle;
and i. is too much to expect that the par
ties will. be in fairer frame of mind then
than they are now. .a
The Republicans have defeated the
Morgan proposition. just as they defeated
the similar Bicknell proposition -showiug
clearly that they will not accept any reas
enable scheme for counting the electoral
votes not framed by themselves. They
claim that under the existing uncertainties
of the law, the vice-president is author
lied to count the votes and declare
the result. They take this ground only
because the present vice. president is a
Republican. Ii he were Democrat
they would have different opinion. The
Democrats on the other hand deny the
authority of single irresponsible person
to count and adjudicate the electoral votes
and it is certain they will never submit to
an enforcement of the arrogant and unreal
sonable claim. 1t may be that there will
not be any disputed certificates growing
out of the next election; that the result
will be so decisive as to be indisputable
All good citizens will hope for such an
ending. But il the contest shall be similar
to the last one: if the result shall depend
upon disputed returns from two, three, or
more states, then the case. when brought
before the joint session in February, will
be this: The Republicans claiming for
Vice President Wheeler authority to do
all the counting aud decidiDg-with power.
of course, to count in the Republican can
didates--and the Democrats asserting the
right of the joint session to do the counting
and deciding. and. In the event of its
failure, through disagreement. the right
of the house to choose the president, and
of the senate to choose the vice president.
Ii such grave issue as this should be
presented, the blame for it will rest upon
the Republicans who failed to make pro-
vision for it when they had control of
congress. and have now refused to allow
Democratic majority to provide for it,

plication of Wizard Oil.
DR.. HAMLIN:-When / met your agent
here, in September, had been two years suf-
ferino severely with Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at a time to my bed. The balance of the
time was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. I used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine. all of
which proved worse than useless. AS to what
I suffered, the English language cannot tell
it to any one who has not tried its realities
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled my
doubts in twenty-four hours. used bottle
. day for ten days. The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
i left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time in two years.
Since thenI have not used them, and can now
split cord of wood as quick as any man in
Adrian. Some of my friends at first thought
sucna sudden cure would kill me, but wanted
a change, though it should be death

ton, and most Of the time
when L moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without them, L could not raise
either foot from the floor,

any for two months. I now feel as well as
ever did in my life, and have gained thirty-five
pounds IN flesh. But must tell you it seems
almost like a dream. You can refer to me as
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi-
sens of Adrian will testify to the truth of
