JUDGE POLAND says that Vermont will
give Mr.. Blaine its accustomed Repub-
lican majority. Vermont has 4 state
election on the first Tuesday in Sept
ember, and will, therefore, in certain
sense open the campaign. Maine will
have an election six days later, and will
doubtless show large Republican ma
jority. Concerning Ohio, which is an
October state, there is little room for
doubt. 1t has gone Republican in seven
consecutive Presidential elections, and
the best judges predict an increased
majority this fall. West Virginia is the
only other October state, and there are
not wanting indications that Mr. Blaine
great personal popularity will easily
carry it for the Republicans. West
Virginia has been regarded as a Demo
cratic state since 1870, although an In
dependent Democrat was elected gov
ernor in 1872 by the aid of the Repub-
licans. General Grant also carried the
state the same year on account of dis
affection among the Democrats. The
Democratic majority in the state is not
very large, and there is a strong protec-
zionist sentiment among the Democrats.

FORTY EIGHTH CONGRESS

In the United States Senate on Mon
day the Mexican pension bill was further
debated, and Mr.. Ingalls, amendment
dating pensions for Union soldiers from
date of discharge or disability, and ex-
tending the limitation of time to file ap-
plications for arrears of pensions was de-
feated. A vote will be taken on the bill
to day. The House, after debate, passed
the sundry civil appropriation bill by a
vote of 1870 to 81. Senate amendments
to the army appropriation bill were non,
concurred in.
In the Senate on Tuesday House bill
for the sale of the government property
at Harper's Ferry, w. Va, was favor
ably reported from the military com.
mittee. The Mexican pension bill was
further amended and passed-yeas 81,
nays 27-Senators Butler, Lamar, Geo.
and Ransom, Democrats, voting with
the Republicans for the bill. In the
House bill was passed granting letter
carriers fifteen days of absence each year.
The House adopted its electoral count
bill as substitute for the Senate bill,
and, as amended, the bill passed.

WITH a view to the thorough distri-
button of such documents as will advise
the country of the objects and aims of
the Democratic party, the Republican
Congressional Committee has decided
to supply committees and all other per-
sons with such speeches and documents
as it may from time to time publish,
enveloped and (when frankable) franked
if desired, for distribution among the
people. The demand for the congress
sional debates on the important issues
made at the present session, is greater
than the committee can gratuitously
supply. They will, therefore, be COM
PEELED to charge the nominal rate Of
S1.25 per hundred. Orders addressed
to Edward Mcpherson, secretary Wash
ington, will be attended to.

Political "bolters" and "kickers'

tons show them to be persons of weak
convictions, with a narrow outlook, who
are generally influenced by selfish con-
siderations. 1t has come to be that
the CHECKERS" of one year condemn and
despise those who initiate them in the
next. We now see in Pennsylvania the
"kickers" who defeated the gallant
Beaver filled with disgust towards the
free-trade CHECKERS" of New York and
Boston who are trying to pave the way
for the defeat of Blaine. The men with
records that will bear investigation and
the trials of time are those who are con-
sistently faithful to their principles and
to the organization which represents
them, while those whose unfaithfulness
makes it doubtful where they will be
found can never win influence, respec,
or success Elk.

ELECTORAL COUNT BILL
PASSED BY THE HOUSE.

The Electoral Count bill, which has
passed the House, was reported by Mr..
Eaton from the House committee on
the law relating to the election of Pres
ident and Vice President, as substi-
tute for the bill introduced in the Sem
ate by Mr.. Hoar, and which passed that
body in January last.
1t provides for a joint session of the
two houses of Congress for the count
ing of the votes, and that such joint
convention shall not be dissolved until
the count shall have been completed
and the result declared. 1t provides
also that any recess which the joint
convention may take while the vote is
counting shall not be for a longer time
than one calendar day, and that after
the first Saturday succeeding the be-
ginning of the count no further recess
shall be taken until the count has been
completed and the result declared.
1t provides that in case of objection
to the counting Of the vote of any
State, and in case more than one re-
turn shall have been received from a
State, the question, in the first instance
of the counting of thevote of the State,
and in the second, of which return
shall be received and counted, shall be
submitted to the joint convention by
the presiding officer, and that three
hours having been allowed if necessary
for debate, a vote shall then be taken
per capita, commencing with the State
of Alabama, and the convention shall
thus determine the question.
These provisions with respect to the
settlement of questions concerning the
reception and counting Of the vote of
States in cases of objection thereto, or
of more than one set of returns, con-
stitute the principal difference between
the Hoar bill and the substitute adopted
by the House. The Hoar bill provides
that in such cases the two houses, act
ing separately, shall concurrently deter
mine the question.

PLATFORM Thinkers.

Those excellent but self-righteous
gentlemen who are too good to remain
longer in the Republican party seem to
be very anxious about the Democratic
platform to be formulated at Chicago.
They profess to be disguised at the anti
Chinese plank ill the Republican plat
form and at the anti-Chinese record of
Mr.. Blaine. In order to emphasize
their devotion to the principle of equal
rights for immigrants of all races they
have gone over to the democrats, and
expect them to adopt platform that
will suit their broad humanitarian views.
1t would be worth trip to Chicago to
see Mr.. Curtis or Mr.. Putnam offering
resolution in the Democratic national
convention welcoming the Chinese to
our shores, and demanding that they
be invested with the rights and priv
ileges of American citizens.
The failure of the Republican con-
vention to say anything about the trade
dollar is another cause of complaint.
Nothing would be more gratifying to
the friends of Blaine and Logan than
to see the Democratic convention tackle
the trade dollar question and the silver
question generally. The boilers want
the trade dollar redeemed at par and
the coinage of the standard silver dol
lar stopped. In this they represent the
views of the great mass of Republicans
of the east, but the party in the west is
divided upon this question, and it was
not made an issue, except to recon-
mend the adoption of an international
standard fixing the relative value of gold
and silver coins. 1t is to be hoped,
however, that Mr.. Curtis will be able to
compel the Democratic party to make
a more definite deliverance on this SUBJ
ject.
If perchance the convention should
declare in favor of continuing the COIN
age of silver dollars at the rate of two
millions a month, would the new Re-
publican recruits bolt again? They
know that the Democratic majority in
the House of Representative has re-
fused to stop the coinage, or to redeem
the trade dollar except by adding it to
the silver currency, but in the face of
this fact, these currency reformers have
gone to the Democratic party to secure
anti-silver legislation. The country
will be greatly pleased to see them
plant the Democratic party upon their
silver platform.

WOODMAN, SPARE THAT TREE!

MR. ELIToR The statement made in
your last weeks issue that ii. p. Leslie
had sued out an injunction toprevent the
destruction of an Ailanthus tree on the
premises occupied by him was a mistake,
for the Injunction was granted to the
owner of the property because the loss
of this fine shade tree would depreciate
the value of his property.
But Mr.. Leslie as tenant has several
objections to it's removal. First, that it
is the only protection his residence has
from the heat of the sun from sunrise to
past meridian, the difference of heat as
shown by the thermometer being over go
degrees between the side shaded by the
tree and the side exposed to the sun.
Secondly, that the party who petitioned
for its removal 'as nuisance has
maintained year after year Il hog pen;
very much to the annoyance and discom-
fort of his neighbors, and yet no com
plant was made; though this nuisance
lasts two thirds of the year and the odor
of the tree only about two weeks, and Is
all over now
One of the most distinguished and
learned boards of health the world pro-
duces has lately decided that the ALLAN
thus" tree is the greatest aud most eff
ficient absorber of malarial poison that
nature has produced, and strongly recon-
mend their culture wherever malarial
fevers prevail. This is the third reason
why its removal is objected tot is also
doubted if the town commissioners have
the legal or constitutional right or author
ity to invade persons premises and
destroy piece of valuable property
merely because some prejudiced person
complains that it is nuisance.
Why not remove or prohibit the run
ming of the bone and pulp mills because
the odor of them is considered offensive
and a nuisance by persons residing in
their neighborhood. Let the Commits
sioners show some consistency and re-
move many more offensive and lasting
nuisances, and there would be no objec-
ton made to their destroying every shade
tree in the Gown which they presume
their brief authority gives them the
p,w,r. FAIR Pray.
