ire hideous twin monsters, and unless sup.
pressed disrespect Of Law and then anarchy must
'ollow.-[Buffalo Evening News.
A just argument; a lame and impo-
tent conclusion. Crimes against suffrage,
wherever and however committed, in
their effects are necessarily more danger
Gus to the public welfare than any other
infractions of the law. 1t will
not do to forget, however,
in our bursts of indignation that it is not
the province of the South to try the
charges of Northern bribery; nor will the
North be called upon to ascertain judi
cially the truth or falsity of the charges
of Southern intimidation. 1t is hardly
probable that the system of local self
government will be abandoned in this
country just yet. Until it is abandoned
the 'fhonest menu of Georgia will have
no occasion TO provide means for a re-
formation of the political methods of
Pennsylvania.
Whenever it shall be proved that the
honest men in any state are in a minor
ity, it will be time to seriously consider
the abandonment of Democratic institu-
tions.
The News has good heart, and it beats
in the proper place. The credulity it
shows in the acceptance of all tales of OPP
preston that come from the South is a
misfortune incident to training and loca-
ton; not willful fault. In days to come
it will learn that the honest men of the
North can safely trust the honest men of
the South to enforce honesty in elections
and in government.
Remove the beam out of thine own eye,
brother; we are carefully searching for
our mote.

A Possible EmergeneY.
New York Herald

new 1Ofk Herald.
A Virginia correspondent wants to
know who would become president in
case Harrison and Morton should both
happen to die before the 4th of March
but after having been declared elected
president and vice-president. -.
We answer Mr.. Bayard, if he Should
continue to be secretary of state until
March 4.
The emergency would be governed by
the new succession law passed in 1886
This vests the succession jh the cabinet
beginning with the secretary
of state and going down. 1t
provides that "rin case of re-
moyal, DEATH resignation OF disability of
both the president and the vice-presi-
dent' the secretary of state-or if there
be none the secretary of the treasury and
SO one shall act as president until the
disability of the president or vice.
president is removed OF president shall
be elected
The person who thus succeeds to the
office is required to call congress together
if that body is not then in session. The
act makes no provision for special cleo
ton for the choice of a new president and
expressly repeats the pre-existing statute
which did make such provision. The
succession would continue in the cabinet
until the next regular presidential cleo
ton, unless congress should legislate to
the contrary.
Apply this law tor the emergency sup
posed by our correspondent. If Harri-
son and Morton should both die before
the 4th of March and after having been
declared elected, there would be no presi-
dent or vice-president ON that day.
President Cleveland g term is then at an
end and he becomes private citizen.
There would be no Republican cabinet,
because Republican cabinet cannot be
appointed before March 4, and in the
event of the death of both Harrison and
Morton there would then be no Republic
can president to appoint one.
But Mr.. Cleveland cabinet would
then be in Office, for their terms do not,
like his, expire on March 4. They con-
tinue in Office until their successors are
appointed. Hence Mr.. Bayard, if then
secretary of state, would act as presi-
dent, would have the right to appoint
cabinet of his own and to hold the place
the full term of four years unless con-
gress should legislate him out-which it
would doubtless do.
