The Elections.

On Tuesday of next week important State
elections will be held in several of the states
and municipal election involving the
greatest possible interests i'm Detroit In
New York q full State ticket except Gov
ernor and Lieutenant Governor, both
branches of the legislature, judges in sew
eral of the judicial districts and county
officers are to be elected. Indications point
to close election with the chances i'm favor
of the Republicans. In New Jersey there
is to be elected o full set of state and county
officers, house of representatives and half
the senate. There also the election is holly
contested, but the chances favor the Demo-
Gratis. In Virginia all the legislative, state
and county officers are to be chosen. The
fight there is personal and bitter, and no
man can tell the probable result, as frauds
are wont to rule i'm the solid south, and no
where are they more unblushing than in the
old Dominion under Bourbon rule. In
Massachusetts, Ohio, and Iowa, general
elections will be held, but these states are
so decidedly Republican that no doubt as to
the result exists. In Pennsylvania an cleo
ton is to be held for state treasurer, super
intendent of public instruction, legislative
and minor officers. But that state is always
Republican and will be this time. The
same is true of Nebraska, where judicial
officers, member of congress and minor
officers are to be chosen. In Maryland
there are to be elected some of the officers.
The fight seems to bepersonal, with divid-
ell Democracy, and there are hopes of Re-
publican gains. In Mississippi and other
southern states where elections are to be
held the election is only farce, often a
bloody one at that, and no interest is taken
in the contests which is one of fraud and
shot guns.

The Evening Journal in an editorial pro-
claims in the most decided language the
many virtues of Mr.. Pingree, the republican
candidate for mayor of Detroit, and de-
nounces in equally emphatic language the
republican candidate for mayor of Buffalo,
New York. Now we have no doubt Mr..
Pingree is just such man as the Evening
Journal says he is, though we do not per-
sonally know him. But we do know Mr.
Carmichael, the republican candidate for
mayor of Buffalo, and know that he is
every whit as clean and as able man as the
Evening Journal says Mr.. Pingree is, and
we do not see what the Journal hopes to
gain by such an unjustifiable assault on one
of the ablest and truest of the republicans
of Buffalo.

JUDGMENT SUSTAINED.
Josiah and Elizabeth Potts Doom
ed.

The Supreme Court rendered de-
cision last Saturday affirming the do
cision Of tho lower Court in the case
OF the State of Nevada vs. Josiah
Potts and Elizabeth Potts, who were
found guilty Of murder in the first de-
gree in the District Court of Elko
county on the 18th day of last March,
and who were sentenced by Judge
Bigelow to be hanged on the 18th day
OF May, 1889. The case was appealed
to the Supreme Court by J. A. Plum
mer Esq, counsel for the defense,
and execution OF the death penalty
was ordered stayed pending the de-
liberation of that tribunal, which,
after due consideration, rendered a
decision as above stated.
An appeal 10 the Board of Pardons
will now be made in their behalf,
praying that the sentence of death be
committed to Imprisonment for life;
and on inquiry we find a strong feel
ing in this community in favor of
that proposition, although there are
some who are like the multitude in
the days Of Pontius PLATE who, when
asked what should be done with him
whom they called the King of the
Jews, cried out "Crucify him." and
they will not be satisfied until the ex-
treme penalty of the law is executed
upon these persons.
So far as we can ascertain there are
very few who have any doubt that
Miles Faucet was murdered by Potts
and his wife on tho LIST day Of Janu-
airy, 1887, and the general impression
seems to favor the idea that the MUIR
der was committed by the woman,
and that her husbands crime consists
in an attempt to conceal the evidences
of his wife's guilt.
Individually we are conscientiously
opposed to capital punishment, be-
lieving that life Imprisonment
would prove as effectual in the pre-
vention of crime as the execution of
the death penalty; hence we are in
favor of the communication of the SEN
tence of Potts and his wife to impris-
onment in the penitontiary for life,
and in their case, as we'll as in that of
Kendrick whe, killed Hugo, we should
oppose any effort which might be
made to secure a pardon.

CHARACTER m TONES.

The Power for Good or Evil That Resides
In tho Human Voice.
Few Of us are there who fail to rec
ognize the power for good or evil that
resides in tone. There is the tone of
authority that insures obedience: there
is the tone Of anger which exasperates;
there IRE the querulous, the lnsinuat-
Ing, the expostulating, the supplica-
tory tones. There is the tone OF happy
childhood, clear, sweet, careless; the
tone of neglected childhood, SO moving,
SO pitiful.
There is nothing when one is under
high state Of excitement so difficult
to control as the voice, and probably
there is no one Indicator of character
so accurate and trustworthy as the
voice In the prevailing tones of the
voice In conversation a discriminating
listener can readily detect the various
qualities OF the mind and heart which
go to make up the character Of the
speaker; and this is to large exten:
true whether he speaks IN language
Ineligible to the hearer or in one un-
known to him. Culture shows itself in
the tones of the voice almost as exactly
as In the language alticulated, or
In the expression of the face. Decision,
1ndecisiOn, discrimination, habitual
good nature, merriment melancholy,
ill-temper--all leave their record as in
effaceably In the tones of the voice as
they do on the lineaments Or the face
The cultivation of ones voice thus
resolves itself into the cultivation Of
ones character. Where the, voice Is
habitually soft, clear, sweet, uniform.
the character will be found to cor
respond with it. Where the voice is
full OF dissonance, harshness, cold
ness, negativeness, the character will
be found to correspond with it.
The vocal organs are exceedingly
mobile and sensitive, or they could not
so exactly reproduce in tore the con
dition of ones MUD 8ad the form of
ones character Being thus mobile,
they are capable of indefinite cultiva-
ton in the richness, variety, depth
and meditation of the tones they pro-
duee; but no amount of cultivation
will impa4t to the voice those peculiar
tones and qualities which indicai q
sweetness of temper. charitab!eness Of
disposition or refinement of taste.
These traits must be Ina the character
or they will not appear permanently
and habitually in the voice
