THERE is constantly increasing SEN
timent that the State Board of Chart
ties and Reform is an expensive hum
bug which should be wiped out by the
legislature to convene next Wednes'
day. For the good of taxpayers it
should be abolished, and one of the
members of the Board has expressed
himself in favor of it's abolition, which
is doubtless as sensible a thing as he
has said since his appointment.

CONGRESSMAN AIKEN, of South Caro-

"Neither Tilden, Hendricks, Hancock
nor Bayard can secure enough north
ern electoral votes, in my judgment, to
insure him, when backed by the en-
tire southern vote, undisputed claim
to the executive chair.

man like Horatio Seymour or David

that the 30th district gave Governor

upon Senator this district gave q Re-

trict. The 32d district also does bet

to the total Republican and Democrat

The Ashland Press pronounces for
James G.. Blaine as its choice for Pres

presses the opinion that rank coward
ice prevented his nomination in 1915.
Rank jealousy would more properly

man in the Cincinnati convention, and
Bristow, Conkling, Merton and other
aspirants combined to defeat the nom
nation of their more powerful rival.

A MADISON correspondent of a Mil
waukee paper expresses the convic'
ton that ''scalp-raising' as applied
to wolves is a profitable business and
concluded his dispatch by saying that
'.Tne whole system ought to be abel
ished. as it is full of small frauds.
The legislature of 1879 anticipated the
proposition made by that eDterprisine
correspondent and so far as payments
for wolf scalps from the State treas
ury are concerned abolished the
'swhole system" nearly year ago, and
in so doing did very creditable thing.

PENNSYLVANIA will be the first State
to hold convention for the election
of delegates to the Chicago conven-
ton, and it is the purpose of the
friends of the Grant hCom to give
their project substantial encouragement
by securing the passage of resolu'
ton instructing the Pennsylvania del
egation to vote solidly for Grant. That
they will succeed IN their purpose of
so doing there is no reasonable doubt.
and if the same line Of tactics is adopt
ed at the present session of Congress
that was pursued during the late extra
session, we have no doubt that Grant
will be the nominee of the Chicago
convention as being the most available
candidate. Whatever may have been
the aversion of many to the third term
principle. the question of availability
will prove an important factor in gov.
erning the choice of the next Republi.
can National Convention.

Our amiable friend Hon. S. S. Fifeld,

the result of the recent election in the

we can claim for it the title of The

the language of Dillon, ''that claim
won't laundry" Sam. Though the
oath district made an excellent record
in 1879, the 30th district made bet
ter one. The Republican and Demo-

of State canvassers, is as follows:
Republican, 4,437
Democratic, 2, 155
