The Portland Standard puts Oregon
down as doubtful State, but says that
Stephen J. Field could carry it, as well
as California and Nevada; that Judge
Field was in early days "a hardwork-
ing MINER" that his record is clear on
every question in which the Coast is
interested; that he would receive a
very large non-partisan support, and
carry the electoral votes of these States
to the Democratic side beyond perad-
venture.

Something of the feeling which pre-
walls in the city of San Francisco rela-
tive to the Chinese question may be in
ferred from the fact that the Anti-Chi-
nese Council, composed of representa-
tives from thirty-one ward clubs, at q
meeting unanimously passed a resolu-
ton earnestly calling the attention of
the Legislature to the constitutional
provisions relative to the employment
Of Chinese by corporations created in
California, and demanding, in the
name Of 1.-THE sovereign people of the
State,n the immediate action of the
Legislature in the premises, alleging
that there was danger of bloodshed in

Logan county, ILL.,, has bitter repu-
diation war on its hands. It issued
some years ago certain bonds to build
a railroad, and when the road was built
refused to pay the interest on them.
Decision was rendered against the
county in the United States court the
other day, but the taxpayers have held
meeting and resolved 10 resist the
payment of these bonds to the last
ditch, and declare that they will fight
the troops before they pay cent.

Another unsuccessful attempt to kill
off the Russian Gar suggests that there
is divinity which doth hedge a
crowned head from the attacks of his
enemies; and in this instance it is well
that it is SO, since his police don't
hedge" him worth a picayune. When
assassins eau undermine his very pal
ace.and blow it up, the efficiency OF the
guards placed to protect his threatened
life is not above criticism. But the di-
vinity may eventually tire of devoting
SO much attention to one man, and
then the Russian Empire will want a
new ruler.

in counties the polling continues foul

1t is different here.
The House of Commons consists of si1
hundred and fifty-eight members, but
they represent the population of the
United Kingdom very unequally.
Some of the larger constituencies, as
Birmingham, Glasgow, Liverpool and
Manchester, cast over $4,000 votes, while
Others like Marlborough and Port Ar.
lington contains only 200 or 800 electors
One ne'hundred and ninety-one small bor
oughs with half a million electors are
represented by 246 members, while sc
large boroughs with nearly three times
the population are represented by only
ia.
In the country representations the
discrepancy is quite as great. One hun
dred and two small divisions, with 8
population of 1896, ,2S7, are represented
by l64 members, while 81 larger Coun-
ties and divisions, with population Of
1882, ,652, have only 119 members.
The expenses of Parliamentary elec-
tion which fall upon the members or
their party friends are sometimes very
heavy. Under recent law every candi-
date is required to make a return of
his election expenses whether success
full or not. At the last general cleo
ton in 1874 this amounted in the
aggregate to 1925, ,0OO-the 652 sue
cessful candidates expending $9, $4,000,
and the 429 unsuccessful ones 5000 900.
The average expenses of a contested
election were for the Conservatives $15,-
O1O and for the Liberals $1S,2S0. $141,-
O1O were spent in one county election,
North Durham, and $77,S55 in one
borough in London.
As the successful candidates draw no
pay or compensation for their services as
Legislators, this looks like casting large
amount of bread upon the waters for
which to most members no return is per-
ceptib,e excepting the barren honor of
being classed amongst "Her Majesty's
most faithful Commons"

The School Board held a meeting last
night and transacted the following bust
ness:
A communication was received from w.
H. Foster, representing the Trades and La
Dor Associations, directing the Boards at
tention to the laws of the State requiring
the attendance of all children in school
under fourteen years OF aye and of proper
age. and requiring of the Board to see that
no children under fourteen years be EN-.
ployed in factories instead of attending
school. Referred to the Committee on
Law.
Bids for furnishing coal were opened and
referred 10 the Committee on Coal.
The Chair announced that some OF the
returns from the recent election came in
from the wards in q very irregular form,
some being without the signature of the
Clerk or Judge Colonel Marrow asserted
that if the returns are correct Judge Whit
man is elected by 200 votes. The matter
was referred to the Clerk and City Solicitor.
The Committee on Investigation of the

they found they had exceeded their author

that part of their report referring to him
be stricken from the minutes.

the charges against said Osborne not sus.

The Commercial says: Time draws
alarmingly near when it will be in order

This solemn duty devolves on Council. Ii
is to be hoped they will exercise due care
in their selection, choosing men regardless
Of ANYTHING but absolute merit. The San
itary Department must look after public
health during the pokerish times when
epdemics prevail. 1t is altogether
possible that we should have had
yellow fever in Cincinnati last summer and
summer before, only for rigid quarantine
regulations. True, we had no Board of
Health then, and have none now, and we
have seemed to be doing moderately well,
but we have been running frightful risk.
really flying in the face OF Providence, in
going without so long. That boon of mod
ern civilization should be restored without
delay. Smallpox might overtake us at any
moment, and then where should we be-
with no Board of Health to keep us from
catching it? Then there are drains, sewers
sights sounds, smells and swill milk. Citi.
zens are liable to be poisoned with sewer gas
struck death-sick by fertillzing factories,
and to see their blessed babies pine away
like wildwood blossoms and die before
their eyes, from imbibing still-slop in the
guise of milk. True, again, none of these
dire disasters have been unusually frequent
in the years when we have had no Sanitary
Board, but that is neither here nor there.
The. need Of the hour is evidently a Board

PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS AND FX.
PENSES.

No political events for a score of years
have attracted such universal attention
as the recent dissolution of the long Par.
lament and the speedy election of new
one. The British people are under theil
system of government denied the quad
rennial luxury ofPresident making, which
the people of the United States so hugely
enjoy, and, aside from a few local elec
tions of Church Beadles, Members Of
School Boards, &C., look to Parliamen-
tary election to demonstrate their politi.
cal freedom.
The modus operandi of such an elec-
tion differs widely from what we are ac-
customed to on this side of the Atlantic.
The summoning of new Parliament
is attended by the following routine
The Lord Chancellor receives a written
command from the Sovereign to sum-
mon her Faithful Commons" where
upon the Clerk of the Crown in Chan
Gerry issues his writs to the returning
Office of each electoral district. The re-
turning officer in counties must within
two days of the receipt of the writ give
general notice of the time and place of
holding said election, which must take
place between the fourth and ninth days
after such notice is given.
In borough elections only two clear
days' notice is required, and the election
must proceed within four days of receipt
of writ. The nominations are now made
In writing instead of the old-fashioned
method Of show of hands. If no more
candidates are nominated than there are
vacancies to be filled, the returning Of
fcer declares those candidates elected
and returns their names to the Clerk of
the Crown in Chancery. If more are put
in nomination, the officer adjourns the
election and proceeds to take the vote by
ballot according to fixed form. In a
contested election the polling places are
provided with compartments to enable
