November.

November brings no sectional war,
No hate our prosperous days to mar,
No autocrats, no would-be King,
No subsidy, no swindling Ring,
No sitting of the public voice,
No plots against the people'e choice,
No fraudulent Returning Boards,
No rule of armed and lawless hordes
No theft of honest freemen's votes,
No Fraud, with all the word denotes,
No lnsolent Eight to Seven job,
No games, the public purse to rob,
No cannon at Congress aimed,
No grabs or steals, however named,
No centralizing despotism:
No deadly heresy and schism,
No petty tyrants, loud and coarse,
No bayonets, no rule Of force,
No naughty, donlneering few,
No vcnal, base and selfish crew,
No policy of false prctencc,
No small official insolence,

Tremendous Energy.

The tremendous physical coustitu.
ton and energy of the Southern peo-
pie, at least of the males, ls some
thing unparalleled in history. That
they spend good portion Of their
nights in riding about and engaging
in murder, arson, robbery and other
crimes is conceded by every Republi-
can newpapcr and preached from We.
cry Republican stump. An ordinary
race of men would of course, requirer
sleep and rest during tho daytime
but no sooner do these Southern ban
ditti arrive home and take off their
masks and put away their pistols than
they begin the work of the day time by
raising caLe, cotton and other products
TO larger extent than before the war.
Some Of them too, after hard nights
ride, their hands still covered with
blood, go to work manufacturing tue
cotton which the other Ku Klux have
raised. They even send 10 the hated
North for machinery. A Northern
newspaper says that the Lewiston
(Nlaine Machine Company's works
were never SO busy as now. Looms
are being made for mills in Georgia,
North and South Carolina, and the
shops are run at the fullest capacity
to fill the orders. Hence we say that
a people capable Of manufacturing and
raising cotton by day, and, in the
classic words Of Horr, Of Michigan,
"hell' by night, are at once the most
vigorous and the most industrious OF
any people on earth.-DetrU Free

The colored Republicans of Patter-

boltss the Garfield ticket and form

angered at tho action of the white
members Of tho Robinson Battery OF
the Esird Ward. The organization
was named after Dominic Robinson
ex-Assen blyman, and defeated as.
pirant for the nomination for Con.
gress, and the white and black ele
mcnts fraternized. The battery soon
became a formidable political coterie
Of voters Of all hues, and until the
ambition to have procession mani.
tested itself, the meetings we're har.
monious. The white brethren were
slightly in the majority, and when
the desire TO parade was advanced,
they began to reason that they would
compromise themselves by walking
with arms linked to the negroes, and
accordingly judiciously arranged to
have all the white members present
at the last meeting. The motion to
parade was made, much to the de-
light of the colored members. The
next resolution altered their feelings,
us inc whites resolved that the color.
ed men could not parade with them,
except as distinct body.

A Jealous Queen.

A letter from Rome to The Hour says
The Queen of Italy is not in good health
and her temper suffers accordingly. Be
sides, she does not hesitate to open hel
mind to her spouse, who is great ad
mirer Of beauty, whatever name it takes
Thus, there are three or four ladies al
court who are heart-sores to the Queen
for she has the bad taste to love her hus
band, just like an ordinary woman. She
has declared that she will not give mol
attend any court entertainment at which
either of those ladies may be present
Consequently, no court ball has beer
given this winter. Tho Queens delicate
health is the outward excuse for this, but
all Rome knows, or thinks it knows, o.
disagreements within the gilded walls o.
the palace. The Queen looks marvel
ously pretty and rosy for an invalid, ant
she drives out daily, smiling as sweetly
as ever on all who bow to ker as sh,
passes by. One of the troublesome womel
is Italian, one French, and, third Eng
lish.

The Island of Rotumah, which has
been Professionally annexed to the
British Empire at the request of depu-
tation of the two hostile factions which
inhabit it, Is situated a little 10 the north
and east of the Figi Archipelago, and
was discovered by Capt. Edwards during
his search for the mutineers of the
Bounty in 1871. The island is only five
miles long and half as wide, but it has a
numerous population, the shore being
covered with villages, which touch and
join one another. The soil is very fer
tile, and vessels often stop at the island
for supplies, while the inhabitants make
good sailors.

Mormon is CONTROVERSIAL is fish that

Outside of Utah these complications
sometimes lead to trouble. A telegram
was recently received in Denver, COL,
requesting the authorities to arrest
q young man who was charged
with having run away with his
aunt. When informed of the cause
of his arrest he protested that the woman
in his company was his wife. "But," /"
says the detective, "wasn't she your
aunt before she became your wifer The
young man proceeded to explain the po-
sition of affairs somewhat as follows:
snow, in Utah, stranger, the relation OF
aunt and nephew are rather peculiar,
and perhaps you don't understand it."
The officer allowed that he
didn't. "Well, then, my father
married my mother, then he
married her sister-then the sister of his
.father-in-law-then a cousin to my
mother, who was the daughter Of fathers
uncle-then he married her sister, who
was the widow of one Of his first wives,
husbands then her daughter and son
of one of his wives by former saint
married my sister, who was also widow
of one of fathers other wives sons.

ST.. HOFFMAN and his friends are not
satisfied, but undoubtedly they are con-
vinced. The people have made up their
minds that he shall retire, and retire he
must, in spite of the large Republican
following he commands. He can at
tribute his Waterloo to the people who
talk little but are strong in their
convictions. Mr.. Hoffman had the
support of the same ring that has al
ways rallied at his call, but there were
altogether too many silent scratchers in
his own party. Take the Republican
vote he received and add it to the full
number of Democratic tickets voted and
il would be enough to elect him by a
fair majority. But the Democratic tick
cts went in without his name on them
and that is how he came out so
handsomely in the rear. The effort to
rally the party to him as a rebuke to the
system of legislative reorganization was a
fiat failure. He was reorganized in after
having been defeated by the people, and
they could see no reason why he should
not go out by the same method. His
nomination and the attempt to make a
martyr of him cost the Democracy a
good many votes and made the defeat
they received heartily deserved one.
After awhile it will begin to dawn upon
party managers that the voter has some
rights, and highest among these is the
right to vote against notoriously OBJ
jectionable man, even if he can secure
the control of the party machinery at
the nominating convention.

EDMUNDs' ELECTORAL COLLEGE BILL

~~~--~'
1t is much to be hoped that Congress
will not adjourn without taking up and
passing some bill looking to a more Ger
tain and therefore satisfactory method
for counting the votes of the Electoral
College in future Presidential elections.
How nearly the country missed a resort
to the arbitrament of the sword in de-
claring the result of the last contest is
not probably appreciated by the great
majority of people, and the hor-
rors of such an arbitrament extend
ing as it would into every hamlet and
district throughout the land, would have
exceeded ten-fold the bitterness Of our
late civil war. To think even of such a
possibility is demoralizing to the mind.
One of the grave matters of concern in
the last months of the late Senator
Oliver P. Morton's life was the menace
from this source that in his opinion hangs
like the sword of Damocles suspended
over the head of the Republic. Senator
Bayard, of Delaware, has given express
sion to the same apprehensions. Senator
Edmunds, of Vermont, has given utter
ance to like views, but has gone farther
in that he has presented bill to Con-
gress embodying the provisions of two OF
three other propositions offered heretofore
on this subject, and will endeavor to
push the measure to its passage before
adjournment.
This bill in its main features is as follows:
Each State, at any time prior to the
meeting of the Electors on the second Mon
day of January, following their appoint
ment, may decide any controversy grow
ing out of such appointment from what
ever cause, and those Electors who pre-
sent themselves before the College with
certificates of appointment, duly signed
by the chief State Executive, shall have
their votes counted by that Congress.
This body, in order to perform that i'm
portant duty, shall assemble in joint ses-
sion, with the President of the Senate in
the chair, on the second Wednesday in
February following the meeting Of the
Electors, and any objections which may
be offered to counting the vote of any
Elector must be submitted to Congress
in writing and considered separately
by the two Houses. When contest
ing Electors offer votes from any State
only those shall be counted that both
Houses acting separately concur in &C
cepting and when two sets of Electors
present themselves the vote of those
bearing the certificate of the State Ex-
ecutive shall be received as the true Elec.
toral vote of the State.
The joint session of the House to be
without debate and no motion shall be
in order except to withdraw; no recess is
to be taken except to 1'ecide question
concerning an Electoral vote, while recess
can be extended only to the next day.
If the count is not finished after five
days Of the joint session no further re.
cess can be taken. We hope to see Sena-
tor Edmunds' bill or some other of which
this shall be the basis adopted by the
present Congress,
