lF the County Court wants to be econ
omical and prudent in the construction of
bridges its members should take a lesson
from the counties of New York. In these
the truss bridge is in general use, and gem
orally, whether of one or of four trusses,
rests on stone or brick abutments, built
with special reference TO heavy fresh
cts and the direction and force of the
water. If the water, rs is sometimes the
case, rises as high rs the floor of the
bridge and damages or sweeps the truss
work away it is easily repaired or re-
placed, as all the bridges are of uni
form structure. The make-shift bridges
put up by the Shelby County Court are a
continual drain upon the pocket of the
public like the stupid habit of rounding
up" soads that are generally, almost invari-
bly,, made worse by the process. What is
needed most hereabouts just now is good
roadways, well macadamized, and perma-
nent bridges, simple of construction and
cheap. The example of Memphis under
the Taxing District form of government is
undeniable. We have saved money by
paving streets, besides facilitating the
commerce of the city, which is much
greater and more important than most
people imagine. The county ought TO go
and do likewise

We publish elsewhere something in ref
erence TO the first volume of the census
report of 1880 Just issued from the govern
anent press, that will give our readers some
idea of the scope of the work and how
fully and clearly it will unfold the condi-
ton, growth and wealth of the country.
II will show this to be the wealthiest ma
tion in the world. Counting the railroads,
shipping, live stock, investments, houses
and furnishings, and all representatives of
wealth, the grand total OF wealth in the
United States is put down at $50, 0,000, ,000,-
900, while that of Great Britain is nearly
$4,000 900 less. The wealth per inhabi-
tant in this country is therefore practically
s., 900 per head. In Great Britain it is 4
little above that. Notwithstanding the
complaint that there are monopolists, and
that labor in this country IS not given
show for itself, these same statisticians
say that assuming 100 as the standard,
seventy-two parts Of the products OF labor
90 10 the laborer in this country, tifty-six
parts in Great Britain, and iorty-one parts
In France, while capital gets twenty-three
parts in this country, tYenty-one parts in
Great Britain, and thirty-six parts ia
France Here the government gets five
parts, while in France and England the
government gets twenty-three parts.
These figures are worth cutting out for
reference VIXEN you hear somebody growi-
ing about our extFavagant government or

THE latest news from Ohio is much bet
ter and more encouraging than that pub
lished in yesterday mornings APPEAL. 1t
now appears that the Democratic majority
on Joint ballot will be thirty-two, the re-
turns showing that the Democrats have
elected twenty-five Senators and sixty
three Representatives, and the Re-
publicans eleven Senators and forty
two Representatives. This sufpasses
The expectations of the most sanguine and
must have the most encouraging effect
upon Democrats in all the other States.
When the rumpus in the nominating con-
yention is recalled, the sickness of Cover
nor-elect Hoadly, and the bitter inn
placable contest between the Enquirer
and the Nc,rs-,Journal, this will appear lit
tie less than wonderful We take Il for
granted that the well-earned popularity of
Senator Pandleton had something to do in
bringing about this result, and that he
will, as u consequence of it, be reelected
TO the Senate.

THE Episcopal Convention in refusing to
change the name Of the Church by striking
out the words Protestant Episcopal" did
a wise thing on Wednesday. 1t is epis-
copal in government and therefore holds
to the forms of the early Church and it is
Protestant in its origin, established as it
was in contradistinction to the Roman
Catholic Church, and in protest of what
its founders believed the errors OF that
Church. To have stricken out the words
protestant Episcopal" therefore, would
have been to blot out the history of the
Church and sink it in utter subordination
to the Greek Church and the Church of
Rome, which holds and will hold it to be
Il schismatic body. The Episcopal Church
holds peculiar and in some senses an en-
viable position among the other divisions
of Christianity, and it ought not to forfeit
that position and sink its own importance
by change of name. The convention has,
we believe, acted wisely and well.

COTTON RATES.
Meeting Of tisc Cotton Exchange 10 Fro
test Against Discriminating Fail
River Rates.

Mr.. w. C. Aman, of New York, was in
troduced to the Cotton Exchange yester-
day, being in the city for the purpose of
eliciting aid in having removed an APP
parently discriminating railway rate of
transportation on cotton. in which Fall
River is charged six cents per 100 pounds
more than other manufacturing cities
have to pay. Mr.. W. G. Aman presented
the following letter, addressed to himself,
from to the various manufactures of Fall
River and adjacent points against which
the extortion operates;
MASgPAcTyRERs' BoARB or TRADE,
FALL RIVER, August =. 1883, !
Mr.. W. C. Aman
DEAR SIR-The manufacturing indus
tries of this city, which consume annu-
ally about 100000 bales of cotton, 100, 900
Of which are received by railroad and the
balance by Hatar routes, are subjected to
an arbitrary charge Of six cents per 100
pounds in excess of the rate paid by any
other large manufacturing city OF New
England on all cotton received by railroad
Inasmuch as this discrimination against
us Is not based on additional service rem
dered over that rendered the other cities
referred to, we beiieFG il is unjust and un-
reasonable, and ought TO ts abated. We
propose to secure such abatement, and, to
this end, request you TO lay this matter be-
fore the managers Of the several railroad
lines interested ut once, as the season for
active shipment is at hand, and we desire
you to urge them 10 make Fall River a
billing point at Boston rates. Should you
fail to secure this result, we wish you to
ascertain by what additional lines of rail
or 0i rail and water combined we can OBJ
tain the ssme rate of freight as is paid by
other cities over tbs sll-rajl lines, and on
what condition, in order THAI 8e may ship
by such lines as far as possible.
The list of signers is headed by +. 5.

A CLEAN SWEEP.
Hoadly's Majority 1900 at Least, and
the Legislature Democratic by 32
Majority ON Joint Ballot.
The Republicans COncede That They
Fave Lost Everything and Give Up
the Fight-I0wa Elections.

COLUMBUS, October 11.-More complete
returns from Tuesdays election indicate
an increase in the Democratic majority,
which:will probably be considerably over
1900. The Senate will be two to one
Democratic, and the House is estimated at
43 Republicans and 81 Democrats. Later
returns on the Legislative ticket indicate
the Democratic majority on joint ballot
will not be over A. The second amend
ment will receive about 100000 votes, and
will probably be adopted, except the
cities, go strongly against it. The judi
cial amendments are carried beyond
doubt. The first amendment will not get
over 100000 votes. The Prohibition vote
is estimated at from 5000 to %, 200, and the
Greenback at 2OOO.
l O'Clock AM Neither of the State
Committees are making any effort to obtain
definite result from the election, since it
has been conceded that everything is
safely Democratic. The Democratic head
quarters are practically closed to-day, and
nothing is being done by the Republican
Committee. The first amendment is
adopted and it is thought that the sec
ond amendment will get $4,000
votes, and be defeated from 10000
to $4,000. Some advocates of the
amendment claim that it has carried.
With the Hamilton and Cuyahoga delega-
tions divided in the proportion which
has been reported, an estimate has
been made, in which both committees
substantially agree that the Senate will
stand % Democrats and IL Republicans,
and the House 63 Democrats and AZ Re
| publicans, being a majority of 50 on
joint ballot. These figures are liable to be
slightly changed by the final result in
| both counties.
Judge HoadIy Receiving the COngratu.
| Iations of His Friends
CINCINNATI, October 11.-Judge Hoadly
spent several hours in his office to-day,
where he was visited by large number of
friends to congratulate him. He shows
weakness from his illness, but endured
bravely the task of continuous hand
shaking. Much time was consumed in
receiving and reading telegIams of con-
| graduation. Among them was this:
| YoSKERs, n. Y, October IL, 1888.
81 congratulate you on your brilliant
triumph. S. J. TILDEN."
| kilograms were also received from
Senator Jonas, of Louisiana; Robert Gar
rett, of Baltimore; Senator Mcdonald,
August Belmont and many others.
The condition of the returns in this
county are such that nothing can be def
nitely stated in addition to what has been
| given until the official count. This will
be next week. A rumor is current in
some places that Gov. Foster and other
| Republicans were here to investigate
charges of fraud in counting the vote, but
inquiry among Republicans reveals no
knowledge of such charges or of such in
vestigation.
