Sufficient returns have been re-
ceived toshow that Unconstitutional
amendment prohibiting the manu-
facture and sale of liquors in Kansas
has been adopted by at least 10000
majority. Thefriends of temperance
made special effort in favor Of carry
ing the amendment on election day,
that being the principal question in
most localities. In all The cities,
and many small towns, the ladies
elcctioneered for The cause Of temper
ance, and had tempting, lunches
spread in the vicinity Of the polls,
which voters partook of freely, the
only consideration being promise
to vote for the amendment. The op;
ponents Of the measure made no ef1
fort to defeat it, and will content
themselves with deyising means to
eyade its operation and surmont it
with such legislative enactments as
will render it. Of no effect. The
amendment will go into cffct when
the vote is canvassed and published
by authority of the State board. LIZ.

According to the figuring Of the
Washington Gazette, paper that is
always reliable and correct, and in a
position to speak advisedly, says the
next Congress will stand as follows:
Embellishments, 40; Republicans,
36. House-Democrats, 14S. Re-
publicans AS. In this calculation,
Ladd and Murch are classed as Dem.
ocrats; should they not act with the
Democrats, the House would then
stand a, follows: Democrats 146; Re.
publicans 145; Greenbackers2. This
would give the Greenbaekers the
balance Of power.

The Irish papers claim that there
are now $4,000 British troops on the
Island, or 5000 more than the entire
United States army. The royal con
stobulary Of Ireland amounts to H.
44S men, and this total force Of 49,
44S armed officers ought to quell a
good sized rebellion.

Since tho decisive triumph Of the
ebt-paying wing Of the Virginia
Democracy the old Commonwealth
securities have steadily advanced,
showing that investors regard the
late election as settling the question
whether the obligations Of the credi.
tors shall be respected or not. On
the lst Of November Virginia con.
soils sold at 81, the i0-40s at 40s and
404, and the deferred ut s. On the
10th Of this month consols sold lat 703,
the l0-4Os at 45} and the deferred at
Is. This is heavy advance in SO
short time, and is undoubtedly due
to the defeat Of the Readjusters. The
defeat was in fact so crushing that
the question whether Virginia shall
or shall not discharge her debt has
been decided, as we believe, for all
time to come. AS the logical result
capital seeks investment in Virginia
securities,and win doubtless flow into
the Old Dominion, which is thus rem.
dered a safe and lucrative field for
commercial and industrial enterprise
steady stream fromnow on. There
is1ittlefoaE that Mahonewill.be able
to rally hisscattered forces; for, with
the continuance Of good times and
the steady advance Of the States
credit and Of the market value OIL
their own property, Readjusters as
well as Funders WILSON realize that
no more damaging blow could posi-.
bly, be struck than the success Of the
Read uster cause. In the near future
doubtless, the followers of Malone
will be muohsreduced to an insigniti
cant minority, while the Democracy
of Virginia will continue, as in the
past, to be the sturdy champion o.
honesty, economy and progress in
public af1airs.-Ez.

opted or not. II appears that less
than one.half Of the citizens casting
their ballots at the recent State cleo
ton failed or neglected to vote PROOF
con upon the proposed amendments.
In several portions of the State the
tickets of both parties were printed
"for" and against" the amendments,
leaving it to the voter to strike out
one or the other, as he pleased. But
it seems that a large majority of
those voting neglected to indicate
their wishes BY marking out one or
the other, consequently their ballots
being both for and against the am
endments, failed to express n prefer
ence, and became a nullity.
Now chapters 40 and so of the acts
of 1879 providing for the submission
of the proposed amendments express
ly declares (sec, 81 that if u majority
of the votes cast at said. election shall
be for ratification, the said amend
ments shall be in force and effect
from the time Of such ratification,
&c, which would clearly indicate
that the Legislature was Of the opin.
ion that u majority of the persons
voting at the said election must vote
for or against them in order TO Sc.
cure their ratification.
And so, upon investigation, we
find that the courts have repeatedly
held that the modes prescribed for
the adoption of an amendment to a
State Constitution must be faithful
| ly observed and that the omission Of
any one, would be fatal to the amend
ments, "that it must appear from the
returns to the Secretary of State that
majority of those voting for repre-
sentatives have voted in favor Of
the proposed amendments"
This would seem to settle the mat
ter, but the Constitution Of this State
expressly declares: "Andifa MAORI.
ty Of the qualified voters voting ON
the question III the polls held pursu-
ant to such law, ratify the proposed
amendment it shalt be in force from
the time Of such ratification as part
Of the Costitution Of the State"
We are no LAWYER, and leave the
matter to be determined by the
proper tribunals.
