WATCH AND PRAY.

Under the reapportionment of
legislative districts in all the states
there was quite change in respect
to the electoral vote, and just now
there is much speculation as TO the
character of this vote two years
hence. In 1874 Democratic con-
gress was elected, while two
years thereafter Mr.. Tilden was
elected, but the fraudulent
Hayes was fraudulently declared
president. This reminder is not
made, however, to prove that the
states will go Democratic in 1884,
though we confidently expect they
will, as a general thing, maintain that
dignity and independence lately as
sumed by so many, where
it was hardly expected. 1t
may even be, and it is
certainly very probably, that other
states will follow in the walk of
Pennsylvania and New York, and
this resolution like others that do
not go backward, may gain greater
power in 1884 and sweep the states
from one end of the unIon to the
other. Should the present popular
sentiment be maintained the cleo
toral vote of 1884 will be as follows ::

AMEND THE ELECTION LAW.

The papers are urging that the
law in relation to counting votes and
making election returns be amend
ed, so as to have the entire work OF
the judges of election completed
shortly after the polls close. The
plan proposed, directly after the late
election, by the STATESMAN,
would meet every requirement, and
especially would it prevent frauds
and the splrlting away of ballot
boxes for fraudulent purposes, This
plan is to have judges enough, not
only to receive the ballots, but to
count them, during election day, so
that the returns may be ready i'm
mediately after the polls close. Two
boxes should be in use at each voting
place, and voting should be done in
one box while counting is conducted
from the other, the boxes being
used alternately by those receiving
and those counting. The counters
should make out an original sheet,
and duplicate and tripIlate, and
these should be prepared, by the
plan indicated, as the voting pro-
ceeds. When the polls close
the sheets would be near
ly finished, and it would
take only few minutes then to COM
plete them. The trlplicate sheet
should be exposed, for public in
spection, at the voting place; the
triplicate sheets should be so expos
ed at the courthouse, and the origi-
nal should be enclosed to the county
court. There would be complete sat-
isfactiOn to the public. complete
immunity againt fraud and an early
official declaration; for the county
court should convene at an early day
and officially declare the result. An
effort was made two years ago by
Senator Ross to have a bill, expedia-
ting returns, adopted, but the
legislators of that day wanted
the ox-cart style to remain in
operation. The provisions of this
bill are not known to us, but we do
know it met with most decided op-
position, and that it died an early
death. Its purpose was expedition,
and this, it is supposed, was the sum
total of it's wickedness. But it does
seem as though the plan we present
is good; maybe it is too good for
some sections of the state; and it is
one that would give perfect satisfac-
ton TO the people. What legislator
will prepare such bill and secure
It's passage?

FASHION NOTES.

Round and oval-shaped brooches
are imported now that every lady is
supplied with long, slender lace
pins.
The costume for church, wedding
and'day receptions is a short dress
of brocaded repped silk combined
with velvet. 1t is worn with small
visite mantle of the velvet and a
capote bonnet.
Gras d'Afrique, one of the most
fashionable fabrics of the winter.
was very generally worn a genera
ton ago, but the new colors in which
1t now appears do not harmonize
with that of dresses that have been
preserved as hairlooms.
Strawberry red velvet and en-
broidered white repped silk are
combined in one OF the most elabo-
rate dresses yet prepared for DIM
ners, the opera, etc. The pointed
badice and train are of velvet with a
stomacher and undertakes of silk
wrought with beads that look like
jewels.
Matelasse silks are revived for
winter dresses. where they most
often appear, as pelisses. The new
designs have very large figures and
are pulled out as if padded. Cords
and tassels of satin and Jet are used
with cocks'-teather borders, or fur
bands trim matelasse garments.
For travelling, shopping and gen.
orally useful costumes the tailor
made cloth suits find most favor, and
this favor promises to last, as these
dresses are worn two seasons with
out requiring change. Nut-brown
aud myrtle-green tricet cloth and
rough finished English cloths of
small dark checks and blocks are the
materials used.
The latest styles in Vienna feather
fans show figures and designs formed
OF the neck plulnage of tropical
birds. These very fine and brilliant
little feathers are formed usually into
flowers and birds, though few make
a more elaborate display of cupids,
shepherdesses, and other Vatican
designs. These birds are laid up.
on large feathers of dark
green, black or cream color,
they forming the outline of the
fan, and also making a rich back
ground to the mosaic-like figures
formed by the smaller feathers.
Many ladies are already wearing
collars and mouchoir mufls made OF
dark velvet, bordered with brilliant
feathers. Ducks, pheasants', or pea
cocks feathers are all used. The
plumage intended for trimming hats
and bonnets is also purchased and
taken to pieces to decorate other
articles of wear Muffs made
of feathers are conspscuously
fashionable and usually match
the bonnet or turban. AS a
rule, brown-tinted feathers, like
those of the golden pheasant, are in
great request; but muffs and bonneis
made of feathers from the peacock's
breast are still very fashionable.
Brown is undoubtedly one of the
colors par excellence, and it is won
derful to see how innumerable are
the tones disco oyerable in a color
that seems to admit of SO few varia-
tiOns

be classed as Republican Michi-
gan, though it went Democratic a
few days ago, may be Repub-
lican in 1884. Submitting to the
closest calculation, 1t may be
that Michigan, Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania will go Republican, reducing
the Democratic vote to 21S, the Re-
publican having gone to 1S3. This
would bring the conflict to New
York, which will certainly go DEM
ocratic, and thus give the elec-
tion beyond a doubt to the Demo-
cratic nominee, If he be chosen IN
wisdom. Those who rest upon their
oars and accept the vote of this year
as conclusive of what it will be In
1884 may be counting without their
host. This does not belong abso-
lutely to the Democratic party, and
it depends upon the course of its
chosen agents that victory be main
tained, probably, to make 1t even
more decisive. The injunctions of
the good book may be needed even
in political movements. Watch and

PLENTY OF BABIES.

Immigration has been falling of
since the first of July. For the six
months prior to that time the indica-
tions were that the figures for this
year would go far in advance of
those of the year before, but since
July there has been a steady de.
cline. During September the num-
ber was 49,OS5, against 5S,4 for the
same month i'll 1881. For the three
months ending September 80,
the arrivals were 15S,021, while
last year they were 1906.
Notwithstanding agitation and
immigration schemes, but 40l6
of the immigrants arriving here
in September were from Ireland,
while from Germany, where efforts
are being made to keep them at
home, there arrived 1S,080. The
emigration from Germany to
this country throughout the year
has been far heavier than tha
from any other country. During the
three months ending September 80,
it reached 5O,S11, while England and
Wales, the next highest in the list,
sent but 22,2S9. 1t would appear as
If Bismarck's schemes of taxation
and various other measures by which
he desires to promote the welfare of
bis people are not very popular
among them. The falling off in the
last three months, which is likely to
continue to the end of the year, may
offset the gain of the first six months,
and the total immigration up to
December 81 may be less than it was
last year. Well, we can afford to do
without so much immigration here
after. Our natural increase amounts
to between four and five millions

Useless Taxation.

New Orleans T1mes-Dem0crat.l
Green b. Raum, commissioned OF
internal revenue, does not like Mr..
Kelley's plan of removing the inter-
nal revenue from everything except
whisky. Ofcourse not. Mr.. Raum
has Lad fat place for a long time,
and naturally does not like the idea
of being ousted from his comforta-
BILE nest, which is as soft as the
downy breast of an elder duck.
Raum views with horror the abo-
lition of the tax that has maintained
him and vast army Of officials in
luxury, and cheekily suggests TO
Mr.. Kelley the propriety OF reduc-
ing the duty on sugar. The country
is rapidly coming TO the conclusion
that the time has arrived to sweep
away taxes which were the out
growth of the war, and which, no
longer needed, are now an incubus
upon the people.
Let whisky be taxed by all means,
If it can be done decently the
whisky consumers can stand 1t, and
should be made to stand il, but let
the burdensome and now useless
taxes be removed from all other in
dustries. The idea of men having
to pay the government of the United
States for the privilege of growing
and selling tobacco, or of making
matches, is ridiculous, not to say
shameful and scandalous.
