Lodges Lay.

In an article in the North Ameri-
can Reriew upon the duties of the
new Congress, Henry Cabot Lodge de-
clares that ait will fall tar short of it's
duty and of the expectations of the
people if it fails to pass an effective
election law" Many Republican Or
gans indorse this position. Mr.. Lodge
notes with apparent commentator the
bill to regulate elections introduced
by Senator Sherman in the last Con-
gress, the main features of which it is
therefore well to recall. This bill
authorizes the President to appoint in
each Congressional district three
voters as an electoral board, all to
hold Office during good behavior-in
other words for life-subject to i'm
parchment for misdemeanor. The
electoral board of each Congressional
district is to appt int registrar and
three judges for each election district
or precinct and to increase the num-
Der of voting precincts whenever
deemed necessary to secure a free and
fair ballot; these officials are to hold
office for six years, subject to removal
for misconduct, These Federal Off
Gals are to register the voters, count
the ballots, correct irregularities and
declare whatever result seems to them
best. In short, to take Vermont as
an illustration, the entire control of
all the steps connected with the choice
of its representatives in Congress
would be taken away absolutely from
these officials, appointed under State
laws, who have for a hundred years
had charge of such elections, and
given to officials of the Federal Gov
eminent over whom the people Of
Termont have ro power whatever.

/. AMERICAN IRON vASp SrxEL.-In

( AMERICAN. IRON EAKD STEEL.-In a
recent article in the Baltimore Manu-
facturers Record Mr.. Edward Atkinson
calls attention to the remarkable fact
that, though the population of this
country averages less than four per
cent. of the computed population of
the globe, the consumption Of iron
exceeds 40 per cent. of the entire COM
mercial product of the world. And he
shows that in the present year, not
vithstanding the reduction of two
thirds in the consumption of iron for
railway purposes as compared with
year before last, the aggregate con-
sumption of iron has increased, indi-
eating vast increase in the use Of
iron and steel for structural and other
purposes than the construction Of rail-
ways.

It will indeed be strange if the PEG.
pie of the Northwest allow prejudice
to outweigh an evidently correct prin-
ciple. They see but small increase
in their agricultural production. They
see their crops slowly forced out of
the markets Of Europe. They see the
population of Iowa and of rural ILL
nois and rural Wisconsin alta stand
still in dcme places -deceasing, while
the Hortgages grow larger and the
towns become too big for the country.
They may yet hold out for a while,
but when the Eastern landlords and
money lenders raise the rate of interest
and become clamorous for the pound
OF flesh, they will rise up and destroy
the system which Expresses their in
dustries and perpetuates poverty

Important Ruling.

The Acting Commissioner of the
General Land Office has granted q
motion to review the decision of Com
missioner Stockslager of February %,
1889, in which indemnity for school
lands on the Siletz and Grande Ronde
Indian reservation was refused. The
law granting school lands provides for
indemnity in cases where lands are
sold or otherwise disposed Of. The
Acting Commissioner holds that the
10Th and 36th sections, which lie with
in tile boundaries of the two named
reservations, were disposed of within
the meaning the law, and, following
the decision of Secretary Lamar in the
case of Colorado, he holds that the
State has right TO select other lands
in the place thereof.
Acting Commissioner Stone, in clos
ing his decision says:
ut is clear that there is an appar-
emit conflict in Judicial opinions as to
the effect Of certain school sections
being within Indian reservations at
the time Of the taking effect of the
grant. I think that the right of opin-
ion is that reservation for Indians is
. disposal Of land in the meaning Of
the act. Whether 1 am right or not
ON this pointsI feel safe in following
the decision of the Secretary of the
Interior in the Colorado clpe. The
facts in that case are similar 10 these,
and I therefore revoke the decision OF
February q, 1889, and hold the State
of Oregon has a right to select indem-
nifty for school sections lying within
the Eiletz and Grande Konde Indian
reservations. As to all other questions
touching selections arid isls, they are
res9rvedfor pepper Sclion under the
h1Nhen the HIST cQts before the
B6plrtment for approval"
This decision is regarded as import
ant, as it will govern in all similar
cases, of which there is large num-
Der in different parts of the west.
