THE proposition of Congressman McQuoit,
to submit the questions of the Presidential
succession, Woman Suffrage and National aid
to education, to constitutional commission
composed of twomembers from each state, one
from each of the two great parties, is a plan
that has its practical merit, and if adopted is
likely to provide for speedy solution of
questions that must be settled in the near
future

THE improyident persons who are actors
in riots, leave their bills to be paid by sub
stantial citizens, who attend to their own
business. Various bills have been intro
duced in the Ohio legislature, suggested by
the Cincinnati riots, one of them to appro-
pirate by the state the sum OF $500, 900 to re-
store the records destroyed in the attempt to
sack the Court House by the disgraceful COM
munistic mob. More than a million dollars
will be required to make good the losses ere
atcd by mob violence. The lives lost in the
affray neither money or human power may
replace.

MINNESOTA is having fair share of post
Office misery. No sooner is the long and ex-
citing contest over the Owatonna Office over,
than Albert Lea turns up with a fierce fight.
The present incumbent wants to retain the
Office, and Congressman White wants to turn
him out and put in & man to whom he is un-
der political obligations, this new asptrant
being the editor of the party paper. The air
is filed with narrowing tales, and nobody
knows how the thing will end. Poor Milo.
He seems to have the art of filing his hands
with petty squabbles that bring him, instead
of credit and appreciation, no end of vexa-
ton, disgust and bad-blood.

CURRENT COMIMENT.

THE New York Sun claims Parson Newman as
a sort Of ecclesiastical mugwump, and is kind
enough to furnish the following classical definition
of this new title for an old species. mug
wump, in the cherished vocabulary of the New
England States, is big person; big not neces-
sarlly in frame, or voice, or in the pugilistic
prowess of our later Boston, not always big in
brain or sense, but big somehow A little man
in big place and not yet found out is a mug
wump, but so is big man in a big place. One
may be mugwump because his father was, or
he may become one by marrying mugwump's
child. If he is descendent of the great mug
wump Elder Brewster, or of the greater mug
wump Gov. William Bradford, or of the moder-
ately great Connecticut mugwump Gen. John
Mason, who killed off the Pequots, he is likely to
be mugwump all his life. If he is only Gen.
Butler and is elected Governor, he is a mug
wump pro TEN. The faculty of Harvard college
and, possibly, of Yale college are decidedly mug
wumpish, if we may coin the word, in the
towns which they inhabit. The mugwump, in
short, is one of the big toads in the puddle, and
sizes and qualities vary with the puddles.

BROOKLYN marriages this leap year seems to
be unfortunate. Walter Hill of Windsor, L.. l.,
wishes to annul his marriage with Miss Fanny
Brokespear of Brooklyn, on the ground that ne
took hot whisky just before he took the matri-
monial moose. Miss Viola Hamilton married at
the same time to Frederick Barnett, seeks TO an
null her marriage. The young lady's mother has
herself divorce suit pending. She says ner
daughters marriage was accomplished by fraud
and force; that the child is only seventeen years
old, and when she becomes of age will be the

Will not be an easy matter to set aside these hot
whisky marriages. The refined east does not set
very good example, but Brooklyn propriety has

Now if the Democratic party can carry

sured. How can this be done?
The old ticket Tilden and Hendricks will
be able to carry the three states named.
If the Ex-President Tilden should decline
the nomination or if for reasons sufficient
the convention should fail to place him be-
fore the people, then Payne and Flower
would awaken such enthusiasm as has not
been witnessed il the party for years. While
