Not Too Late to Beat PriOe.

We copy from the Cleveland Leader this
very serious charge against fellow citizen
CALVIN g. Bnicn Of New York has been nominated
by the Democratic caucus for the United states sena
tershn Tho votes bought By his money were delivered
according TO promise"
Substantially the same 40 above 10 the as
gertion of the Indianapolis Journal
"ft isn't the Legislature that ssttes-t S Bnrcr and
the teTn' Are cash in advance"
These are specimens OF hundreds OF pas
sages conveying with more or less distinct
ness and emphasis the charge that Col BR1cE
bought the nomination for Senator. Nine
tenths of the Republican newspapers that
havo come to hand since last Friday, and
not few Democratic journals BESIDES dis
cuss the nomination In a way that takes
for granted tho bribery OF the Ohio legis-
lators who voted for BRIoE.
The knowledge OF Col BR1cE's crime and
OF the infamy Of the Democratic Legislators
must be widespread. The proof Of the Ohio
corruption must be In the possession Of q
great many different persons.
Fortunately It Is not too late to prevent
national scandal. Col BRIcE has not yet
been elected as Senator. Tho election at
Columbus will not occur until tomorrow.
More than twenty-four hours remain in
which anybody who has the facts can block
the iniqultous transaction.
1t will not be necessary to prove that Col.
BR1CE, or his agents, have bribed seventy
three Democrats in the Ohio Legislature. 1t
will not be necessary even to establish the
fact OF corruption In the case OF the twenty
nine State Senators and Representatives
who voted for him on the first ballot. A sim
gle case, in which the purchase Of legisla-
tor by BR1cE is promptly proved, will pre-
vent his election tomorrow.
Col. BRICE Is at the mercy Of his accusers,
II they have evidence Of the corruption which
they are 80 loudly denouncing. They can
keep him out of the United States Senate II
they will produce the evidence to-day.
But II they allow the next twenty-four
hours to pass without actually proving what
they now pretend to know, 1t strikes us that
In the future they had better keep their
mouths shut tight on the subject.

What the Australian System" Has
Done In Boston.

Done in Boston.
On Monday last, as one Of the first fruits
of the adoption Of the disfranchising "Aus-
trallan system" q municipal administra-
tion, Republican in all Its branches, was in
stalled for 1890 in the Democratic city Of
Boston. The occasion was one Of consider
eble hilarity for the Republicans, who, by q
Vingle stroke, have knocked over the Demo-
cratic majority Of 10000 voters in that
town. laboriously built up since 1879 Con-
Sidering the circumstances, we are not sur
prised to read in the Boston papers that
despite the unfavorable weather the at
tendance of spectators at the inaugural GER
emonies Of the new Boston city Government
was unusually large. Every available seat
on the floors and galleries was occupied.
Many ladies' were noticed"
The Republican Mayor, Mr.. HART, deliv-
cred an interesting address. In the course Of
which he declared, very suggesttvely, that
"the number OF our election precincts is
needlessly large and may be reduced with
out disadvantage" Mr.. WILLIAM POWER
WILSON presided over the Board Of Alder
men. He said truly: 1T is many years
since the Republican party was dominant IN
the city Government"
We are not informed whether the Boston
Democrats, disfranchised by the new cleo
ton law, lent their presence to the occasion
and participated in the frequent cheers. AS,
by the shrewd device Of the Australian sys-
tenn, the Republican minority had placed
itself In the Official saddle, using the Demo-
cratic reformers for the purpose Of mount
ing, it Is not to be imagined that they had
further need for Democratic aid and CO.
operation; and they seem. therefore, to
have been satisfied to do without it.
The future would be dark indeed for the
Democratic reformers of Boston, wistfully
gazing over the corners of their Australian
booths at the Republicans in full possession
OF the offices, but for crumbs Of comfort
given by stalwart Democrats Of judgment
and ability intent upon undoing the work
OF the dlsfranchisers. These discordant
notes, It is true. were to some extent drown
ed by the clatter caused by the reform
youngsters who want to reorganize tho
Democratic party In Massachusetts, for
another ignominious and humiliating de-
feat; but above all this clatter strong
phrases OF protest were heard from quar-
tiers to which Democrats are accustomed
to look for guidance, admonishing the
party In other States against the adop-
ton Of the new-fangled contrivance most
lptly and forcibly described as 1.-THE most
complete thing to defraud the laboring men
Of their votes that ever was invented"
