a Political Massodon.

10 the Editor OF the G!0be.
The Democrats of Pine Island organized
Hancock and English club on Wednesday,
Sept. 18th, and on the following Friday the
Republicans organized that gigantic body
into Garfield and Arthur club. The out
look was full Of flying missiles and for a
time nothing was talked of but the success
of the two parties. Maine reports came like
shock of electricity to the nerves of our
celestial Republican politicians. This was
the commencement of great war, O. Il.
White, Henry Tome and Joe Irish were
more particularly shocked, and
they swear vengeance to all mankind, and
particularly to the Democratic party. The
first public demonstrations of their revenge
was the appearance of Republican speaker
upon our streets, Republican in principle and
Republican in precept; but, alas, he had our
symptoms and his liver extremities were ex-
ceedingly weak. He called himself Garfield,
gave the great Republican word, and. the
crowd we're beginning to think Garfield
would be the coming Eian, when our village
marshal, who, by the way, is Democrat,
came along and put him in the s'cooler,''
yes, put the first efforts of these gentlemen
behind the bars; said he was drunk and
showed what bulldozing can be done in the
North. The above committee are full of bitter
condemnation for this treatment and swear
renewed vengeance upon every Democrat
concerned with their brilliant effort. Their
first move at revenge was found posted up
as follows:
His mouth was stretched from ear to ear,
His feet were as large as Emery's.
His breath smelt as sweet as lmburger cheese.
But we think he is troubled with the Gar
field disease.

MANKATO.

MANKATo, Sept. 22.-The Chicago &
Northwestern Railroad company, since the
accident, have seen the necessity of building
station at the Mankato junction, and they
are now building one, much needed i'm
provement, which will be appreciated by
the travelling public. If there had been q
station there before the last accident at that
point would not have happened.
The Mankato Mill company's new mill
will be started up again, since the change
from the French burr to the rolls, and is
now capable of turning out 500 barrels of
flour per day. The wheat they are now re-
ceiving is of good quality and they are MAX
ing fine quality of flour for home use and
| also for shipment. Price of wheat to. day,
for No. l, TIC; for No. 2, TAO.
The galvanized iron cornice was this
morning raised on the new block belonging
to Meagher & BAY, and it presents hand
| some appearance, and is decided improve
ment over anything of the kind heretofore
| built in our city. 1t is hoped that Others,
in building, will initiate their good taste and
| 60 them one better.
| b. d. Pay is laying water pipes from
Front street around on Hickory street to his
new livery stable, great convenience.
The Citizens National bank are laying q
new sidewalk on the Walnut street side of
their bank, a much needed improvement. It
is hoped that many others will do the same
| in different parts of the city, for many of the
sidewalks are in shamefully bad condition.
If the city fathers would see that the gut
tiers were kept cleaned out and the mouths
of the sewers were kept open there would
not be 80 many cellars filled with water dur
! ing the heavy showers we have been having.

London, Dec. Glare Sewell Read,
who went TO America recently TO in-
quire into American agriculture, in ad-
dressing the farmers club here, said he
would not fear American competition
in wheat twenty-five years hence, as
the exhaustion Of Land would ensue in
that time and the cost Of production
would increase. But in regard to beef.
there were serious prospects of eompe-
tition from the vast herds Of cattle in

likely that the American nation would

Dublin, Dec. IA gentleman who
has few acres Of land on the border of
this county, received a letter, warning
him that he must join the land league
before Saturday or take the conse-
quences. The most recent develop
ment in Boyeotting is in the country
towns where the shopkeepers, and even
the peddlars are required TO produce
tickets, showing that they are members
of the league, or they will not be allow
ed 10 buy or sell. Even the Orange
men in some places are obliged TO JOIN
the league rather than lose their busi-
mess and property, or lives. The or
ganization becomes daily more perfect
in its minute details. The accumula-
tion OF arms in the country is regarded
with much apprehension. One house
here supplies 2i0 revolyers weekly to
different parts OF the country.

st. Louis, Dec. IA horrible triple
murder occurred near Chester, H.,
last night. A young man named Louis
Tockstain, who had become insane over
religion and was being conveyed to the
insane asylum ut Jacksonville, broke
away from his guards, and, stripping
himself naked, run into house where
an old man and his widowed daughter
lived and her little girl, II years old,
and after causing them to kneel in
prayer, butchered them. Taking the
little girls head with him he ran into
another house and demanded the in
mates TO kneel and pray, but the servant
girl screamed and assistance arrived
and secured him.

Southern Comment ON the T. residents
Message.

Chicago, Dec. THE Times has
large number of editorial comments on
the presidents message, of which the
following extract from a Richmond
dispatch, is the most noteworthy:
Mr.. Hayes libels the south in refer
ence to negroes. We need not stop to
refute his false assertions on this sub
ject, nor take notice Of his twaddle about
the solid south. He asserts what
every man knows to be false, when he
pronounces the new amendments to the
federal constitution TO be the "solemn
expression of the will OF the people.
He knows they were forced upon the
people Of the south. The pres
ident revives the civil service humbug;
of all men in the world, he should be
the last to touch this subject; he who
allowed his officers to stump the coun-
try for Garfield; he, who.appointed scores
of Williams to office that aided in de-
frauding South Carolina and Louisiana
out OF their vote for president In '76;
he who allowed there several assess
ments to be made upon all clerks, male
and female, in all departments of the
government, TO pay rascals for cheat
ing Hancock out of the presidency.
Mr.. Hayes, let us say once more, is \
hypocrite; he is n pretty fellow to open
his mouth on the subject of divorce be-
tween congress AID the president.
The president touches polygamy, and
as means Of extirpating it, recon-
mends the governing of Utah by COM
mission that would serve as precedent
for n like mode of governing the south
ern states, which can easily be convert
ed into territories rs they were few
years ago. The president says that an
army of 30, 600 is the least the country
can get along with; if we arc to have
republican rule we ought to have three
times as many. Gen. Hancock could
have got along with 10000. The presi-
dent recommends that West Point be
put under officers on the retired list,
which is n blow Mt Gen Schoiield and a
sop to the negro. White army officers
are never going TO level themselves to
an equality with isambo. Thepresident
recommends that Gen. Grant be made
captain general, with all that title i'm
plies. He served rs president and re-
ceived $500, 600 for it; he served as gen
eral and received as much for that SER
vice, we suppose; yet he is still to be
provided for. a protest from the south
would insure n success of the scheme;
we forbear to comment upon it.
So much for Hayes last message. Its
tone bodies no good to the country, but
we have some faith IN his successor.
Mr.. Garfield can be great man; let u:
see II he will be-"

Discussion.
over C0ButIng the Vote for President
and Vice President


Washington, Dec. The discussion
in the house to-day as TO whether the
joint resolution on the electoral count
was a question of privilege, brought out
sharply the two sides Of the question
really involved, the democrats holding
that the house alone could judge wheth-
er the contingency had arisen which
would demand Of the house the count
ing of the vote for president; while the
republicans. headed by Robson, held
that the house could not by appointing
tellers elect president, nor could it
create the contingency in which it
claimed the right TO count the vote;
they could only be notified Of such con-
tingency by the senate. II the presi-
dent of the senate declared the presi-
dent elected, he is elected.
Reagan declared that the president Of
the senate was only the medium be-
tween the two houses, whereon Conger
made an elaborate argument, technical
and general In its logic, and he argued
that the speaker could only declare this
a privileged question on some wild the
ory revolutionary in itself; that the
country had barely escaped revolu-
tion, and was threatened again and
again with the same danger.
Hooker replied to Conger, quoting
the rule Of precedents, etc.
Robeson, Updegraff, Whitthornc and
others took part in the debate, the lat
ter asserting that the pending presiden-
tial election was in no wise concerned
in this matter. Garfield had been elect
ed by the people, and he for one should
see that he was inaugurated.
The speaker said: The chair desires
TO say that the 10Th article OF the con-
stitution provides for the counting of
the electoral vote, and section 142 of
the revised statutes provides that the
electoral vote shall be ascertained and
declared agreeably TO the constitution.
This law also fixes the time for count
ing the votes, and fixes this session as
the one at which the count shall b,,
made of the last presidential election.
The uniform practice-certainly recent
practice-goes to the extent of showing,
and places fair construction on what
has been the action of congress, that
the two houses do count, and have
counted the electoral votes. The two
houses of congress in the first session Of
the 3Sth congress agreed to the I'D
joint rule for the counting of the vote.
The senate in the FIRST session of the
44th congress re-enacted all the Joint
rules of the i3d congress except the 22d,
and the house taking no action thereon,
the senate declared that there were no
joint rules in force. The senate decid-
ed in the 44th congress. by vote OF IS
to Z, that the president of the
senate has no power to count the
vote. The senate now sends this joint
rule TO take the place OF the 22d joint
rule. If the chair were to refuse on
technicalities to allow adjustment be-
tween the two houses rs to the govern
ment of the two houses when in joint
session, such proceeding must lead to
chaos, confusion-perhaps commotion.
But as far rs the question of privilege
strictly is concerned, the chair is OF the
opinion that 1t makes no difference by
whom the votes are counted, if done by
- n a.
