IN URGENT DEMAND.


AS We remarked some months ago,
there does not seem to be any desire on
the part OF congress to pass q law which
will prevent a recurrence of the danger
through which the country passed IN
1877 when the electoral vote was counted
and Mr.. Hayes declared president.
Nearly eight years have elapsed and no
serious attempt has been made to avert
such scenes as may follow another crisis
like that. At the next session
following the at least, bung
ling electoral commission, several bills
were introduced with the object In view
to prevent q recurrence of that condition
of affairs. The country has always been
surprised that nothing was ever done
with any Of them. Here we are on the
eve of another presidential election, the
second since the pressing necessity for
such law became manifest, and the
passage of which is of more importance
than anything which could engage the
attention of congress, and yet that body
shows no more concern than if il were
OF no consequences at all. 1t is altogeth-
er probable that the next presidential
election will he close one, and there may
not be half dozen votes difference in
the electoral college between the candi-
dates. The importance of the passage
of Judicious measure to regulate the
counting of the electoral vote is Just Is
great now as ever. Is there not patriot
ism and statesmanshIp enough in our
congress to meet this emergencys 1t is
good time TO pass such a measure, be-
cause one branch is Republican ami the
other Democratic, SO that 1t could not be
said after Its passage that either party
had gained partisan advantage. If con-
gress should tail to pass such an act at
the present session, and thus avert a re-
currence of the scenes and excitement of
1877, if not a civil commotion, 1t will be
blamed by the people for neglecting one
one Of Its clearest and most important
duties.

PHELPS ON BLAINE.

That truly good paper, the New York
Evening Post, having undertaken TO
demolish ]. G. Blaine's boom early in the
season, has called up William Walter
Phelps, of New Jersey, who, while he
is accused of parting his hair in the
middle, Is q man of knowledge in pab-
lie affairs, and of undoubted veracity
The Posts first charge is that Mr..
Blaine used his position as speaker, in
1869, to help renew land grant to the
Little Rock 81 Fort Scott railroad, in
which some friohds of his had an inter
est. Mr.. Phelps shows that at the time
specified, no friend of Mr.. Blaine had
any interest IN that road. Mr.. Blaine
himself never at any time had any IN
terest in the building OF the road.
The charge that Mr.. Blaine was in
any way interested properly, or improp.
erly, In the Northern Pacific, is met by
call on the Post to show, If it can,
where Mr.. Blaine ever had the remotest
interest IN that corporation.
To the fourth charge that, after Mr.
Blaine got possession OF the so-called
Mulligan letters ''he subsequently read
such of them as he pleased 10 the house
in aid OF his Yindication," his answer
is that Mulligan's memorandum of the
letters in which he had Numbered and
indexed each one Of them was produced,
and number and index corresponded ex-
| actly with the letters read. This was
iullY demonstrated on the floor of the
house and is part of ITS records.
To the charge that Mr.. Blaine "packs
conventions" etc, Mr.. Phelps truthfully
answers:
No campaign IN his favor originated
elsewhere than among the people. He
has never sought Office. He never held
position to which he was not nomin.
ated by the unanimous voice of his par.
ty He has not sought the presidency.
Circumstances made him u candidate in
1876, almost before be was aware of it.
In 1880 he did not wish to enter the can,
vass. i was one of the small party OF In.
innate friends who in long conference
in February, 1880, persuaded him that II
was his duty. He has done nothing TO
make himself candidate this year
He has asked no mans support. He
has written no letters, held no converse.

intimate friends that he expected or de-
| sired the nomination.

KANSAS PROSPECTS

Kansas City Livestock Indicator: A
summing up of the reports from the
eighty-one organized and some of the
unorganlZed counties in Kansas, on the
general condition and prospects of the
various kinds of live stock, winter wheat,
rye and the fruits, presents a showing
that is more than usually satisfactory as
to the present, and full of encourage
ment for the coming year, unless fruit
prospects, especially peaches, may prove
an exception. The winter has, to be
sure, been long and quite severe. and in
the more western counties there have
been considerable losses of stock through
insuflciency OF shelter and food,
though as a whole it is probable the
preparations for wlntering animals were
better and more complete than those
ever before made since the state was
settled. Fewer cases of black leg are
reported among young cattle than ever
before, and losses from all causes, except
in the western counties, are much less
than usual. The range in the western
portion of the state was much injured
by the rains in October, and where other
food was not provided, the loss was very
large. The general condition of cattle
is good, and successful year among
cattle raIsers is confidently looked for.
Better care and more intelligent man
agement than eyer before has character
lied the business of sheep husbandry
during the past year, and the result is,
that sheep are in an excellent condition,
and free from disease, except the new
fiocks that will have scab, which has not
been eradlcated, because the proper at
tention has not been given nor remedies
applied. Two years ago this disease was
general, but now it is confined to COM
parativelY few tiocks.
The severity OF the winter caused the
loss of many early pigs, and the predic-
tion is made that they Will be scarce and
dear. The only disease causing much
loss among hogs during the winter was
the so-called cholera. In most instances
where the disease occurred the cause
could, it was believed, be traced directly
TO the importation of carload lots OF
stock hogs from public stock yards, or
from Iowa or points in Missouri. The
loss to the farmers from this cause dur
ing the past winter will aggregate many
thousands of dollars. The suggestion
is made that every large public
Sto.k yard IN this country, and all stock
cars that have been long in use, are
"more or less infected with some disease
common to swine, and the importation
of hogs from these yards and in these
cars will in the large majority of cases
bring contagiOn " That the farmers OF
Kansas should bear this in mind, and
not eudanger their own and their neigh
bors' prosperity by continuing the prac.
tlce is ADVICE that has more than once
been given in these columns. The hog
stock of thai state IS the equal of any and
there should be small excuse for sending
away from home for feeders, healthy or
| otherwise.
