The recall of Lord Lytton from India,
which is presaged by the result of The cleo
tions in Great Britain, would appear to be-
at this distance, an injudicious step for the
liberal party to take. Though all his lie
he has been literary man, he has shown,
during his incumbency of his present posi-
ton, all the qualities of an astute statesman,
Emergencies have frequently arisen that have
required the highest craftsmanship, and be
has not been found lacking. The Indian
policy of the British government has beer
ably carried out by the viceroy, and his de.
position at such critical time as this woulc
be likely to do more injury than good.

TIE more evidence given, the more it ap-
pears that Springer was at one time pledged
to unsest Washburn and seat Donnelly.
His eleventh hour change of heart, based on
Isanti county, is thin. 1t would be much more
manly for Springer to admit that he has
allowed the howlings of the Republican
papers TO intimidate him. 1t would have
been still more manly if he had had the
back bone to stand by the fact that Wash
burn bought both his nomination and cleo
ton and consequently that of the unbought
and unintimidated vote his opponent had
the majority.

The Blaine committee claim the ten votes
from Vermont after the first compli-
mentary vote for Edmunds given in &C.
cordance with the instructions of the State
convention. It is announced, however, that
Edmunds is uncompromisingly in favor of
Grant, and will use his utmost endeavors to
secure his nomination. It is not at all prob
able that delegation pledged to any can
didate will run counter to the candidates
preferences. We are safe, therefore, in pre-
dieting that after the first ballot-if ballot
shall be had at Chicago-the vote of Yer
mont will be given for Grant.

THERE is no longer an loom for doubt as
to Gov. Seymour's cand dacy for the Presi-
Dental Office. The result of the conven-
tions in Oneida county, where he resides,
shows that the attempts of the Tilden ad-
herents to prove him decrepit and imbecile
have provoked feeling of resentment
coupled with desire to show that he still
holds place in the confidence and affection
of the people. If the issue is generally rails
ed in New York State between Seymour and
Tilden, as now seems probable, we have nc
doubt but the sage of Utica will distance he
of Gramercy Park.

state yesterday, but fortunately only one drunk

for 80 doing. The eight thousand files of cases
were dumped into boxes without regard to

the part of the employees. It is understood that the
wages of other skilled employees of the company
also advanced and that the scale of advance win be
announced to the men to-day This action of the

The distinguished rascal, otherwise known
as d. h. Finley, says he did not write the
anonymous letter to Springer. Perhaps this
is true, but Judge Flandrau states that
when he Flandrau) went to Wash
ington as counsel for Washburn, Finley
met him and stated he was undecided which
side he should take in the contest. Wash
burn alse states that Finley applied to
him to be retained as counsel e? in his be-
half. The only way such fellow could rem.

aroused and the whole affair was like trying to
squeeze blood out of turnip Before ballot

to a certainty what the result would be in the
end and therefore cast his ballot without the
usual well known peculiarities, turned on his
heel and went back to business feeling glad
that he had got through. and thought no more

by them. Care should be taken, therefore,
and especially in the case of county treasurers,
to fix the penalty high enough to cover the
highest amount likely to come into their hands
officially during the term for which such bond
ia given" The bonds given by banks as de-
positories afford no protection for the funds ex
cept in case of their failure, as every cent so de-
posted is subject to the check of the treasurer
| at any moment. Il is we'll known that In Ram
sey county the highest amount likely to come
into the treasurer's hands officially during each
year exceeds by three or four times the amount
of penalty fixed nv your board, even for the
term commencing On March LIST prox.
It is not difficult for man of high
standing and character to obtain sureties
for the highest amount, while the naming OF
that sunl would make II difficult, if not im-
possible for one of different character as
possible incumbent to qualify for such an I'M
portant and responsible Office.
Y, AS to the matter of abatement of taxes
the action of the boards or committees charged
with that duty ia omen to much criticism. I'm
der the act of 1874 many loose practices pre-
vailed to which l need not now REFER. Even
under the act of 1876, which took effect Aug.
l of that year. the exceptions are numerous IN
which the statements of applicants are not
s1orn to according to law, some Attachments
being made without formal petition, on scraps
of paper and on pencil memoranda. The pet!-
tious are almost invariably approved In pencil
and signed by Individuals, not thus carrying
with them the sanction of any authorized trib-
unal. The minutes of the City Tax Committee
do not always show that quorum was present,
which alone has power to abate, and they are
signed alone by the County Auditor, who is
not. as 1 understand it, er oficjo clerk of the
committee. As the law provides for chairman
and clerk, it would seem that all proceedings
should be signed by these officers and that all
refunding orders should also be signed by
them.
