Ladd, Murch and the Veto.

LaQQ, Murcn ana Inc VotO.
The Argus is silent concerning the River
and Harbor bill and the veto. The reasons
for its silence are obvious. 1t does not care
to approve an act of Republican President,
however mertorious that act may be, and it
does not wish to acquaint its readers with
the conduct of the Fusion Representatives
from Maine.
Our Republican Senators, Hale and Frye,
and our Republican Representatives, Reed
and Dingley, sustained the Presidents veto.
Our Fusion Representatives, Ladd and
Murch did not. Their names do not appear
on the tally. Ladd was in Maine, neglect
ing his Congressional duties, seeking re-
election. Murch was in the District of Col
umbia, Sinking his Congressional duties
and refusing to vote against one of the big
gest jobs ever passed by Congress. He
''pairedn-that is, if he were opposed to the
job, he swappeda negative vote for an affirm
alive one, when under the circumstances
one vote against the bill was equal to two
votes for it. This is ''too too with ven
geance. In effect Murch cast his vote
against the veto. His attitude is clearly ex-
pressed by the debate that took place in the
Senate when President Arthur's message
came up for consideration. We quote from
the Congressional Record:
The President pro tempore-On the question
whether the bill shall pass the Presidents OBJ
jections to the contrary Notwithstanding, the
question is determined in the affirmatiye; for
ty-one Senators voting in the affirmative and
sixteen in the negative. So the bill passed.
Mr.. Logan merely desire to call attention
to one fact. In the passage OF this bill-as
matter of course it makes no difference, but
still it is well enough always that the record
should be correct-I noticed that in the pairs
as they were announced one Senator was
paired with another Senator Now, in vote
where it requires two-thirds to pass bill,
pair should be of two Senators for the bill with
one against it. This bill has been passed by
pairing one Senator with one Senator
Mr. McMillan--It does not affect the result.
Mr. Logan-It does not affect the vote.
merely call attention to it.
Mr.. Conger-I ask the gentleman II ne
thinks on any question whatever one Senator
should be considered equal to two other Sena-
tors, and under what rule that can be?
Mr. Logan-I do not want to get into any
discussion about this, but it is always the rule
where q two-thirds vote is required that the
party voting in the majority should pair two
against one, SO as to make it equal. 1t mas
been done over and over again here on this
floor. 1t has always been the rule, and nobody
ever questioned it before.

MAGAZINE Notices.

The American Journal of the Medical Sci
ences or. G.. Lea's Son & Co.: Philadelphia
comes to US bearing its weight of years so light
ly that nobody would suspect it of being the
oldest medical periodical in this country. The
July number does not fall at all short of the
high standard of excellence which has ever
characterized this venerable quarterly. The
scientific articles are, in great part, actual con-
tributions to knowledge; its reviews so thor
ough and conscientious as to be valuable
guides to the selection of books for the physi-
clans library; and its abstracts of articles in
other journals concise, clear, and skilfully
chosen. The wonderful prosperity Of this mag
azine sufficiently attests the esteem in which
it is held by the profession to which it is ad-
dressed, and our medical friends will find in
our praise of it only the expression OF their
own matured opinion.

LEWISTON Journal: The most interesting
incident of the past week has been the light
which has been turned on the Fusion plat
forms by those opponents of anti-monopoly
and civil service reform, Congressman
Murch and Ladd. Their failure to oppose
the river and harbor job indicates the depth
of their ardor for civil service reform, while
the sneers of their organs at the bill to re-
store the duty on hay, is practical COM
ment on the depth. of their ardor for the
backlots. After the expenditure of force
which these gentlemen have recently made
I'm connection with civil service reform, as
sessment of Office holders and anti-monopo-
ly. the failure Of these gentlemen to say
'snay'' to the river and harbor job, suggests
a certain resemblance between Fusion Con-
gressmen and Knickerbockers Dutchman,
who, having to leap ditch. to have good
momentum, went back so far that when he
came up, he was completely winded and had

where the people show better judgment, IL
looks as if Messrs. Murch and Ladd might
find the wrong side of the ditch somewhat

week in September. At the risk of joining

field, we affirm that the Fusion ticket in

assumed ALA ming proportions. The
Khedive, to-day, received q telegram
from the Porte expressing disapproVal Of
the attitude of the military party, and
asking the Khedive TO advise them to OBJ
serve moderation; otherwise foreign inter-
Tention hay become inevitable. The
British consul at Alexandria called a
meeting Of British subjects this morning.
He said there wss no reason TO appTehend
danger to life or property from the
Egyptian garrison, but that if the neces-
sity should arise for their leaving the
city, they would be protected by the
iconclads while embsrking.

The notables appear inundated. A
deputation from the Dotsbles again

declared the army insisted upon the re-
instatement of Arab Bey, adding that
the KhediVe would otherwise be in
danger Of his life. The Khedive replied
that nothing would induce him to assent
to their demand. 1t is rumored that
France and England are quite convinced

Khedive, while secretly countenancing
the action of the army. the object Icing

Frank James.

st. Louis, pa Post Dispatch special
from Independence, Mo-, says: Quite q
hutter was sccasioned this morning by
the arrival of Mrs. Frank James and her
8 year old son, jesse. She arrived on
the train from the west, and was met by
her father, Colonel Samuel Ralston.
This is the first time she has been at her
home since 1877, and confirms the report
that Frank James will shortly receive
unconditional pardon. She refused to
say anything further about her husband,
but she added that he had bsen in bad
health since the death Of Jesse, and that
he was at some watering place. The
general belief is that Frank James has
already surrendered to Sheriff Tim ber-
lake. The little boy Jesse is a remark
