wiser to keep the Democracy in position to

 York's Polls Must Close at 1 p. m.-Obe-
 tiience to the Law First in Importance.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Judge Barrett de cides that the law requiring the polls to close at D. m. is mandatory. This is shown by several things in the context. For example, the law provides that immediately after o'clock the inspectors shall write ''No" after the name of every name registered for which no vote has been cast, and shall then immedi- ately begin to canvass the vote To extend the voting beyond the hour fixed would re- quire three distinct directions of the law to be violated. The closing of the polls means the closing of the vote. It cannot mean the closing of the premises where the boxes are, for the law expressly says that the premises must not be closed until the canvass is finished This is a provision for allowing citizens to watch the count
 The constitution confers the right of sui frage, but leaves to the legislature the pro- viding of means to exercise that right. If the legislature makes inadequate provision in regard to other bad or defective laws. The remedy is by legislative amendment. The courts can declare a law unconstitu- tional and void but cannot alter a constitu- tional law because it is defective. If the in- Spectors receive votes after D. m. they not only violate the law, but the validity of the whole election may be put ill question. It is important that no citizen be deprived of his vote. It is more important that the laws be obeyed and that the entire community be not put in peril of disfranchisement.

Talented Woman.
 NYACK, Nov. 3.-Mrs Sarah Ribbe Bar more, one of the best known women in Rock land county, committed suicide yesterday. Her home was in a wild but pleasant spot near the Hook mountain, where, so far as is known, she lived happily. A few days ago she was taken ill, and inflammation of the lungs set in. She was found dead in bed, and as blood was seen on her clothing the natural presumption was that she had died of hemorrhage Her body was not then dis turbed, but physician, an undertaken and Coroner Ackerson, from Rockland Lake, were notified.

After an examination it was decided that the woman had cut her throat and then, to make sure of her work, had fired shot upward through the wound Into her head. This is the %atural supposi- Slon from the facts that are now known. The coroner has taken charge of the body, but the inquest has been deferred

 LONDON, Nov 3-The Kavanagh- Cox ntfray has created a tremendous sensation in Parnellite circles, and has also stirred up considerable feeling among the Tories. The examination of kavanagh in the police court has proved the reckless manner in which The Times has gone about obtaining evidence to sustain its case, as well as the dis regard of truth shown by it's agents, whether upon their own or their employers account. The witnesses in the case showed concluSively that even humble workmen were paid G6 per week-a greater sum than they ever had in thelr lVeS-to remain in London and answer to their names when called to the witness box, and the testimony altogether shows that the witnesses bought, including the prisoner, kavanagh, are of the kind not to be believed under oath, if their antecedentS are known

The admission of Cox that he could not, or would not, make under oath before the commission the statement he made to his employers-the agents of The Times-upon which his subpoena based, has led great many persons to believe that The Times case is founded upon conglomer ation of falsehood, hearsay, suspicion and expectation which, under the searching light of cross examination and the burning heat of reason, will crumble to dust and precipi- tate the entire fabric into the abyss of men, dacity, together with it's builders

He said ''There is, to my mind, something outrageous in men assuming for consideration to become paid spies over their fellow citizens ill the interest of any one asking their services to shadow and track them down, etc., to report without responsi- blllty on the private lives of those whom they shadow, or to report representing their families, and this only too often for not the most laudable purposen

 he argues, that there was not only forgery
