Yesterday was caused by bad management, on
the part of the man who superintendent the

strong men ought to have been. 1t is very
much regretted by Mr.. kerble, since he says
that otherwise Irresponsible parties have re-
marked that it only was an advertising scheme
while il is known by many that the balloon
was ar expensive one, costing two hundred
and sixty dollars and additional expense Tor
bringing it here, and has been used only once
in an ascension.

THE ELECTORAL BILL.

1t is generally conceded that the most i'm.
portant piece of legislation which is likely
10 receive the consideration of Congress this
session is the bill of Senator Edmunds for
regulating the count of the Presidential elec.
tors.
As long as the present chaotic method
prevails the country is in peril every time
Presidential election occurs, especially il
the two Houses of Congress should be m-
der the control of different parties Moth
ing but lucky stratagem saved us from
civil strife in 1876, and considering how
imminent the danger then was, it seems in
credible to one outside of politics, that Con-
gress should have let single session go by
without removing the causes which led to
it, and which under the same circumstances
would bring about a precisely similar crisis.
The truth is. however, that each party
hoped to be in a position to reap the advan-
tage 'next time," and neither consequently
would cooperate with the other in render.
ing it impossible for any advantage to be
6oihNN " Nthhi Stht. "A VI UillS
have been introduced every session and
have regularly fallen through because of
the lack of this cooperation. Mr.. Ed
munds' bill, In substantially its present
shape, passed the Senate at the last session,
and was allowed TO die in the House be-
cause the Democrats would not endorse a
Republican measure. The fact that the bill
has now passed the present session of the
Senate without debate and without oppos-
ton, on a cioa cOce vote, coupled with the
fact that the Republicans have control of
the House and that party feeling has almost
entirely subsidized, gives good ground for
hoping that the measure will speedily be-
come Il law.
The bill provides that each State may de-
termine for itself any controversy concern
ing The appointment Of any elector. The
decision must he made pursuant to its laws
existing on the day fixed for the appoint.
ment of the electors, and is conclusive evil
dence OF the lawful title of the electors and
shall govern in the counting of the votes
Noeiectoral vote from any State from which
hut one return has been received shall be
rejected, except by the affirmative vote o
both Houses.
When two conflicting returns have been
received, approved by different legal tnbu.
nails, those votes only shall be counted which
both Houses of Congress shall concurrently
determine Is supported by the decision oi
the proper tribunal Of such State.
In It's other provisions the bill is equally
explicit All controversy over the vote of a
State is relegated, as lar as possible, for set.
tlement to the State itself. Congress but
records their decisions and declares the
result If any State comes TO Congress with
the question of its vote unsettled ii runs
the risk Of losing its vote altogether, unless
both Houses can agree.
That IL Is the plain duty Of Congress to
pass this or some similar bill cannot he de-.
nied by any one who has the peace and
welfare Of the country at heart In com
parison with It the Thrift Commission bill,
or the bill for the admission Of Dakota, the
one already furionsly debated, and the other
likely to be. sinks into jnsigniticance.
Montgomery County sentinel., 1882-04-21

demanding 65 cents per ton, and companies
offer so cents, hence the strike. In all of
the former difficulties between the compa-
nies and the miners the companies have
invariably yielded. The companies now
say, you must take 90 cents or we will in
troduce new labor Upon the theory that
the companies have heretofore yielded, the
miners discard the idea that the companies
will attempt to introduce labor from abroad
1t is evident that The only solution of this
vexed question can be settled by the intro
duction of foreign labor, for in that case, the
new labor must be put to work, or the old
hands resume work at the price named.
The sooner this experiment is tried the bet
ter. The business operations throughout
the county IS prostrated, the mining regions
haye The appearance of sabbath. The coal
wharves at Cumberland are as deserted and
silent as grayeyards, and the large number
of canal boats resting high and dry, re-
minds one much of the appearance of set of
hackncyed and wornout politicians. sv w

The black bass, of'which your sportsmen
are capturing such large numbers in the
Great Falls at this time, were brought from

Shriver, of this city. They were brought
in the water tank Of the engines on the B.

Potomac river at this point. A Mr.. Stabler,
