the whole voting population OF the state ant
in all tbese the proportion Of orelgn-bOrn clti'
zens is large. Much more than half OF the Ger
man population Of the whole State resides II
tbese five cities, or in the counties OF which
they form large part. But besides these GU
les, Ohio has forty other cities and towns e1'
ceeding 1000 population each, and those MI
nor towns have over One-tenth OF the Young
population of the State. Thus in fOrty-hVe
cities and towns the number of persons OF the
Y otinp age is about $4,000, out of S26OoO i'll
the whole State-more than One-quarter'
In these places, however, the proportion OF
foreign-born voters varies very widely in
Cleveland it is as high as 81 per cent III
Youngstown 81, and in Cincinnati, Sandusky
and Toledo 20 per cent in Elyria 24 and IN
Akron % per cent. But in GallipOlis it falls to
: ner cent. in Circlevle it is only 8, in tlndlay
and Xenia only 9, and in Mount vernon anu
Salem only 10 per cent. In all the other citieS
and towns it is over 10 but not over ~ per
cent in Columbus and Dayton, where the TER
man population is large, the proportion OF Ior-
eicp-born inhabitants Of all kinds is only 10
Der cent. 1t will be seen that the smaller clues
generally show greater proportion OF Amerl-
can born inhabitants.
II would be an error to infer that these fig
ures fully express the relative strength OF the
foreign element as a political or social force
The census and the figures above speak only
of the persons Of foreign birth, but the children
of German parents, who have been brought up
in entire sympathy with their ideas and customs
when they come to voting age are often as In
tensely German rs any of the naturalized ciu-
z.ps. For this reason the foreign-bOrn citizens as
a political element count for considerably more
eyerywbere than the statistics of nativity alone
would indicate. But very correct idea OF
the relative strength Of that clement in different
places may DO derived from the records OF the
nativity of citizens. Again, it would he far from
correct to assume that the entire foreign popula-
ton voted on the same side on any question.
Even in the times of Know Nothing excitement
there were not few foregn-bOrn voters VINO
insisted that suffrage should in future be more
restricted. In the temperance contests ut the
West, not few citizens of German and Irlsh
birth have been found Jealous advocates OF pro-
hlbition. especially among those whose rellg-
ious feelings are strong. In some places the
Catholic Church has used great influence III
favor of restricting the sale OF liquors, ana
many of the Protestant Germans have been ac-
tive prOhlbitOnsts.

ELEMENTS or POPULATION IN ONO.

ELEMENTS or POPULATION IN ONO.
The very large vote which the prohibitOry
amendment has received in Ohio makes it es-
pecaly interesting to note the relative strength
of the constituent elements Of the popula-
ton. OF the persons Of voting age i'll Ohio, a
little over three -fOurths were of native birth,
and less than one-fourth foreigners. In Iowa,
where similar amendment. was adopted by a
large majority, the ratio is over 8 to |, and
Kansas has over S.to L, while Maine, ono of
the earliest States to take this course, has over
ten inhabitants of native to one of foreign birth.
New York has a rather smaller proportion Of
persons of foreign birth than Ohio, New-Jer-
sey has less than one-lfth, and Pennsylvania
less than one-seventh. Hence, as respects the
relative influence CT voters of foreign nativity,
Ohio was one of the last States i'll which the
success Of such an amendment could have been
expected.
AS tc relative strength of civic and rural pop
ulation, again, Ohio was by no means like Iowa
or Kansas. 1t has several large cities, and an
unusual number of smaller cities which have
brought together manufacturing and trading
population. Five cities embrace one-sixth Of

ENRELGN TRlDE IND TIE TARLEE

FOREIGN TRADE AND THE TARIFF
The official statement of foreign trade in
August shows au excess of S2,9Sl,SI3 in eH-
ports over imports, which is nearly the same
AS the excess of imports in August of last year
With trade account more favorable by
about Sc, 600, 600 than that of the correspond
,ng month in 1882, we have net imports OF
gold amounting to $l,Sl5,O3l, against net eN-
ports of gold amounting to $l,2l2,33i in Au-
gust, 1852. For the two months of ex-
pcriencc under the new tariff, We find an cX-
cess of only 1913, GlO in imports Of mcrchan-
disc against $lI,19l,I77 for the same
months last year and not imports of gold
amounting to -, 1923, against net exports
of gold amounting to 50, SOL, 5jl during the
same months last year. Each year there was
an excess Of exports over imports of silver In
those months, rs usual but in 1883 it has
been 81 ,1G7, 5Ol, and in 1882 was 81, 10, SSl
SO That if silver be treated ns money rather than
merchandise, the net outgO Of money in the
two months last year was S7,075, 435, and this
year there has been net income of $l,OOG,-
4l2.
These figures do not show that the new tariff
has materially affected the foreign trade of the
country as yet. lncFe mas bteh II uccTelSc III
imports amounting to $l6,37G,35O for the two
months, in comparison with the same months OF
last year, but this W. \ in part because of the
large imports in June, to take advantage of the
act M soon as it went into effect by withdraw
ing goods from warehouse For the three
months, the decrease was about $l4,2T5,OOO,
but it can hardly be said that this WAS due to
the new tariff, because in the three months fol-
lowing the passage of the new act the imports
were $40, 200, 900 less than in the correspond
ing months of 1882, and were also less In
February, while the act was under consider
alton. Thus it does not yet appear that the
imports have been on the whole greater or less,
thus far than they would have been had the
duties remained unchanged. Imports Of some
articles have undoubtedly increased, but the
state of the markets here has not been such as
to encourage large movements this way, while
the imports of some products have also clearly
declined in consequence OF the change OF duty.
In short, the dread of excessive impOrtatiOns of
foreign goods has no support in the returns of
foreign trade in July and August If any
harm was done by the modification Of duties,
the evidence of it has yet to appear, while
there has certainly been material benefit to
some interests

responsible one, and If filed by competent and
honest persons frauds in the City Government
ought to be quickly discovered. The record
against thee Commissioner during tho last 10
years is particularly bad. BY the frauds IN the
Finance Department the city has lost aDou'
$4,000. In the Dock Department there was
an embezzlement of about $4,000. There was
large but unknown loss through the loose
administration of the affairs Of the Properly
Bureau of the Jlice Department. 1t was esu-
mated that at least 100000 was lost to the
municipality through the frauds in the Commis-
sioner of Jurors Office. Nearly as great de-
falcation was detected in the Law Department.
because Of the dishonesty of E. d. Gale. Inc
full amount of the loss by the recently dlscoV-
cred frauds in the Public Works Department
is not yet known.
There have been vague and uncertain reports
about dishonest practices in the Park and E1-
else Departments, and in other branches VI the
City Government. So long as the thieves
are allowed to 90 unpublished, such practices
will continue No one has heard OF the Dis
trict-Attorney prosecuting any person 1or
stealing money from the city. When the
frauds in the Office of the Commissioner OF
Jurors were discovered there was loud talk
about somebody being punished, but, as usual
it ended in talk.
If Mayor Edison and Controller Grant Will
even partially fix the responsibility for some OF
these frauds, and do something to prevent their
repetition, the taxpayers will be grateful But
the removal of one politician to make place
for another will do no good. The trouble Is
that the Democratic City Government is rotten
Throughout, and nothing but a complete reYo-
luton at the polls will accomplish much in the
way of reform. In the approaching municlnal
election the taxpayers will have an opportunity
to give an expression of opinion on this subject
and to DO something toward correcting existing
abuses. That can only be accomplished by
decisive defeat of tho Democratic bosses, and
their system of parcelling out the municipal
Offices

that the vines are diseased.
Pugilists cannot pummel one .anOther in
Kansas without being summarily claDped In
prison for their brutality, which speaks well
for the West. But two pugilists yesterday
fought an hour and forty minutes at Farming
ton, N. H., IN the presence of 500 spectators,
which speaks badly for the East. 1t is little
odd that young Kansas should be found takln 2
higher stand than the venerable Green Noun
tain State. The police of Pennington, it is to
be added are entitled to whatever credit at
taches to the fact that at the expiration of the
hour and forty minutes they managed to
" brighten the crowd and stop the exercises.
Two of BaltmOre's local statesmen engaged IN
an earnest argument yesterday. Indeed such
was the patriotic ardor of one of them, and
such The courage of his convictions, that the
other pensiyely retired from the discussion with
two balls in his arm and one IN his stomach.
The immediate incentive to the enthusiasm
was Democratic primary that had been held
the day previous. The gentleman who was hit
in the stomach and arm endeavored to return
the compliment in kind, but his .aim was
bad. Baltimore statesmen having fOndness
for this variety of controversy ought to go.
Yesterday a subject of large interest to peo-
pie with delicate cOnstitutiOns-the heating OF
street cars--was discussed in Chicago by the
American Street Railway Association. One OF
the gifted members of the association referred
the partially that some people have for cars
that are not refrigeratOrs to newspaper
clamor.n Another member, with a fine turn
for consuming sarcasm, expressed the opinion
that if cars were heated in winter passengers
would want fans in summer. There is nothing
like street-car companies teaching passengers
to know their place. Passengers that prefer
being warm as they ride will see the pro-
priety of apolOgizing to these censOrs.
There is nothing Democratic leaders dis
like more, when applied to their work, than
the keen, bright sunlight of publicity" They
meet in quiet corners and decide in advance
the work of their conventions. \ meeting of
that kind is to be held in Albany to-day. Mr..
Manning has called his lieutenants together to
parcel out the offices, and to give directions
in regard to conducting the State canvass. If
Mr.. Manning would only divulge the result of
the meeting to-day he could probably tell just
who the nominees will be for important local
offices in this city. But the information will
probably be left to leak out through the local
conventions

FRAUDS IN THE DEPARTMENTS.

Mayor Edison cannot be accused of undue
haste in requesting the resignation of Mr..
Shearman, one Of the Commissioners of Ac-
counts. That officer was appointed in 1879.
Under the charter it is the duty of the two
Commissioners of Accounts, "once in three
months, and ofteuer. if they deem it proper,
." to examine all vouchers and accounts in the
"Oflices of the Controller and Chamberlain"
During the four years Mr.. Shenrman was in
Office before he was informed of the coupon
frauds, he made frequent examinations of tn g
Finance Department without discovering any
thing wrong. But after the fraudulent pay
ment of interest was made Known to him by
ex-ContrOller Campbell then Mr. Shearman dis
covered that the populations had been going on
since 1874. For its continuance during four
years of that time he was as much responsible
as any one else, his reports giving a false as
surance to the Mayor and Controller.

1t would be hard to name any Englishman of
distinction who has made finer impression on
a New. York audience than did Lord Cole
ridge last night at the Academy of Music. His
digni6ed and winning presence was well
matched by the simple and manly grace of what
he said No speech could have been more direct
and transformations, yet none could have dis
played greater tact or more thorough compre-
lension of the audience ard the opportunity.
