the rise, but the bulls say that it is war

THE closeness of the popular vote on
President will have a tendency to de-
crease the number Of advocates of cleo
ton by casting direct ballot for the
candidates. Under such a system Han
cock would have beaten Garfield, in spite
of the fact that the latter received a
greater number of votes. For instance,
in South Carolina, where an actual Re-
publican majority of $4,000 is transform
ed into Democratic majority of over
$4,000, the counters could just as we'll
have made it unanimous for Hancock.
Alabama, instead of giving the Demo-
Gratis only $1,000, could by little extra
figuring have repeated the $4,000 major
ity counted on the same side in August.
Similar work could also have been done
in Mississippi, L0uisi ana, and other
southern states. Reform in the electoral
system is necessary, but the most i'm
perative reform is the protection of the
voter and the ballot-box. tits not worth
while to discuss any proposed changes
of system until the right of every quail
fed elector to vote once at each election
and to have that vote honestly counted,
shall haYe been secured.

THE Wood funding bill, as now pend
ing in the House, authorizes the issue of
$500, 900 in 8 per cent. bonds, redeem
able in 20 years and payable in 40 years,
also the issue of $2OO,OO0,OOO treasury
notes redeemable in 2 years and payable
in 10years bearing 81 per cent. interest.
These shall not be sold or exchanged at
less than par and shall be used to re-
deem every outstanding bond bearing
over ~ per cent. interest. The act also
limits the amount of certificates of de-
pOsits which may be outstanding at
any one time to 100000. The fifth
section of the act is one of special impor-
lance; it provides that the new per
cent. bonds shall be the only bonds re-
ceived as security for national banker
culation. It is expected that if the bill
passes with this section it will make q
certain market for nearly four-fifths Of
the bonds provided for by the act.

SENATOR LOGAN has called for certain
correspondence between General Scho6eld

show that General Schofeld's opinion

The Dream and the Problem.
TChamhprS Journal

A well-known and esteemed Edin-
burg advocate, now dead, used sometimes
to relate the following: While at school,
one of the studies in which he was most
successful was mathematics. During the
last session of his school-life he was try.
ing hard for one of the mathematical
prizes. Another youth and himself was
running a neck-and-neck race for the
coveted honor. On regular recurring
days the boys in the class were set
problems to work in given time. Each
of the rivals had done all the exercises
correctly up. till almost the end of the
term. At length our boy was fairly
bafied by one problem-the last that
was required to be done. By no amount
of labor and pains could he succeed in
solving it.
On the evening before the day on which
the exercises were to be given in, he had
puzzled at the obdurate problem late into
the night. At last, still completely
bafled, and mentally and bodily wearied
by his long work, he gave way, boy-like
to food of tears of vexation and NOR
tification, and in this state went to bed
During the night he dreamed that he wal
again engaged in solving the problem
and that he worked it out. rapidly and
easily to what he felt sure was correct
result. Then deep and dreamless SUM
Der succeeded, which lasted till morning
When the boy rose, instead of there re
naming to him only confused recollec'
ton of having dreamed about working al
the problem, he sat down, and there and
then solved the exercise without the
slightest difficulty. The sequel to the
story was, | think, that the two boys
were bracketed equal, and that each
therefore, received prize.
