In the one set of three states-24 con-
gressional districts-a total of 1i1,765 votes
were cast. In the other set of states and
"a congressional districts the total vote was

On the one side or the other there must

citizen should agree that there is time to

themselves. They require no argument.

Carolina with seven. The city of San

THE FEDERAL ELECTION BILL.

II there had been any doubt about the
wisdom and necessity for the passage Of
law for the regulation of federal elections,
the fierce tenacity with which the Demo-
Gratis are opposing the pending bill should
have set all such doubts at rest. Is Is
very decided modification of the bills in
troduced in the Senate by Senator Hoar, of
Massachusetts,, and in the House by Mr..
Lodge, of the same state. and to defeat this
the Rowell-bill viii be tantamount to
an admission that there is no necessity
for any such legislation.
But one of the most carefully prepared
arguments of the Democrats in opposition
to the bill proves, if it proves anything,
that theye is necessity for such legisla-
ton. They have paraded the returns from
the congressional districts of 16 northern
states to show that it required about sixty
nine thousand votes to elect each Democrat
chosen to congress from those states,
against about thirty-two thousand for each
successful Republican. That is 10 say,
they take the total Republican vote of the
l6 states and divide it by 126. the number
OF Republicans elected, and then divide the
total Democratic vote by IL, the number OF
Democrats elected.
The sophistry of this course is plain. By
this process, if the prineeIy Vaux were the
only Democrat elected from Pennsylvania,
it would be made to appear ttrat it had re-
quired the entire Democratic vote of that
great state to elect him. Buff the implied
discrepancy between the number required
to elect Democrat and a Republican in
the north were due to unfairness in favor
OF the latter under state management, why
should the Democrats object to change
which would take out of the hands of the
state authorities the power to do them this
alleged injustice?
The preposterous Democratic showing as
to the 16 northern states in which fair cleo
tons are known to be the rule, can be over
whelmingly answered by comparison of
the vote in few states OF like representa-
ton at the same election. Compare, for
instance, the seven districts Of South Caro-
lima with the seven of Kansas; the seven OF
Mississippi with the seven of New Jersey;
the ten of Georgia with the ten of Ten
nessee in the elections for congressman in
1856. These are the respective totals:

FRANCE AND THE LABOR QUESTION,

The Labor problem" is about to be
solved, If statistics can do anything toward
effecting its solution. Minister Ribot of
France has taken the matter in hand in a
most energetic and methodical manner.
He has called upon representatives OF his
government in this country, England, Ger
many, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Rus
STA. Italy, Norway. Sweden. Denmark and
the Netherlands for reports upon the con-
dition OF the labor question in each country
to which they are respectively accredited.
The reports Will embrace statistics as TO
workingmen's homes, cooperative institu-
tons, schools, relief funds, savings banks
and loan associations, etc. Also the length
of the working day, how wages are fixed
and paid, responsibility of employers in
case of accident, competition of foreign
with home workingmen, how controversies
between employers and employees are
adjusted, prices of means of subsist-
ence, etc. The reports, he hopes. will be
ready by September first, and they will be
an invaluable acquisition 10 the worlds
stock of knowledge on this question.
This simultaneous interest and activity
on this subject in Germany, England.
France and the United States, cannot fail
TO be productive of effective results, and
with four such powers cooperating and
working to one end there can be no posi-
biity of failure to establish in the near flu.
ture the relations between capital and
laber on firm, just and enduring basis.
Honesty and justice all around must con-
troll in this settlement.

Facts About the Oregon Vote.

The vote of the state on the official count
shows somewhat larger total than heretofore
reported. On member of congress the entire
vote is rs 95; secretary of state 1t is rs 49,

vote of Oregon in June, 1890. may be put at
7s,400. This is gain of about 1900 in two
years. Hermann's plurality Tor congress is 1913;
that of Mcbride for secretary of state is S655:
that of Bean for supreme Judge is S.248. For
Baker. state printer, the plurality drops to 515S;
but this is due to the fact that the Democrats
and third parry men supported the same candi-
date for printer. The like fact made consid-
cradle part Of the difference in the vote on gov
ernor. Nearly 5000 vote scsst by the Union"
party for their own separa candidate for con-

SEATTLE. July S. 1890.
To THE EDIroB: I beg to ask for myself and
thousands of others:
!. Does the public announcement that places
win be open on the Sabbath for registration OF
voters make the act OF registration on that day
legals
2. Is 1t certain that persons giving their
names for registration on The Sabbath will not
render themselves liable to prosecution for IL
legal or fraudulent voting III case they try TO
vote?
3. Is it certain that the custodians OF the ball
lotboxes and enumerators OF votes cast, have
full authority of law for receiving votes from
persons who registered on the Sabbath?
Your reply to these inquiries viii give light
to many anxious minds. B. p.
The best authorities in Seattle pronounce
Sunday registration legal. To deprive the work
ingman of his vote because he has not time to
register on week day would be dangerous to
society. In France all the elections are held on
