The EIecrionn Hill.

Senator Matt Quay is furnishing what
little excitement there is in Congress at the
present time. He offered in the Senate
resolutions affirming that that body during
the present session will not take up for
consideration any legislative business other
than the tariff bill, the general appropria-
ton bills, bills relating to public buildings
and public lands and senate or concurrent
resolutions, and fixing Aug 30 as the date
for final vote on the tariff bill and amend
ments. This is plainly proposition to let
the elections bill go by and not come to a
vote at this session, aud it was understood
to be inspired by some Of the PENNSYLVANIA
iron men who are willing to sacrifice every.
thing else for the passage of the tariff bill
as it stands. On Monday when Mr.. QUAY
gave formal notice of his intention to ask
the Senate to adopt his proposed order Mr..
Hoar of Massachusetts, said, LET it 20
over Let it go under,n said Mr. Ed
munds in his dry way, indicating plainly
his own position on the subject, and then a
laugh went round. On Wednesday Sena-
tor Hoar delivered speech of notable
strength against the Quay resolution and in
support of the elections bill, answering
clearly and effectively all the objections
which have been raised against that meas
ure.
A despatch this, Friday, morning says it
is understood that at caucus of Republi.
can senators held last evening it was voted
to let the elections bill go over, aud this be
the first point considered when Congress
redssembles in December.

The acceptance of the nomination Of s.

raised question as TO the wisdom of this
action on account Of the prejudice it would
create among Republicans who might 9th
erwise support the ticket lie had himself
favored the ratification of the Democratic
nomination of Mr.. Gibson for senator, but
others had thought differently. It was a
time TO go cautiously
On rising vote the nomination of Mr..
Davenport was carried 10 TO 3.
Mr.. Ballou wanted the vote tried over
again Mr.. Davis moved vote by ballot.
and the chairman said vote by ballot was
always in order. Mr. Davis Thought, there
was danger Of loss by means Of mixed
ticket aud did not want TO take any step to
lessen Republican support
Mr.. Follett suggested the name Of Il. II

port o, Allbee 10, and Allbee was declared
the nominee.
Mr.. Follett then moved that the rest of
the regular ticket be permitted to stand,
and the motion was carried. Some one
suggested that the other convention neg.
lected to nominate a county commissioner
and moved A. A. Wyman of Athens for the

The Windham County
REFuRMER's circulation
does not increase mater

there Is no more room
FOR II. II now averages
one for every five and
one half people IN Brat

for every family, and in
the county one foreach
eleven people, or every
other family. The
PhBnix aud the other
four papers Of the
county divide the other
half OF the families be
tween them.
The above deadly parallel shows the ex-
act status of the circulation enquiry be-
tween The Phoenix and the Reformer. Mr..
Davenports distinct claim was that the Re-
former has one half Of the circulation in
Nndham county, while The Phoenix and
the other four papers Of the county divide
the other half of the families hetweeu

an expert examination of the two lists
This challenge he at first pretended ~ &C
cept' but when we stipulated that the ex
animation should be complete and search
ing, showing not only the size but the dual
ity and business value of the two lists, he
then began squirming out Of his uredica
ment by lacking on a string OF conditions
which had no bearing on the question at
issue, and the only purpose of which was
10 enable him to befog the outcome and
cover his discontinue should an examina-
ton be made.
Last week he devoted two thirds of a col

The thing for Windham county Republ-
cans TO do during the next two weeks is to
take hold of political questions and political
work in earnest aud make up their minds
to give both the state and county tickets a
full vote and strong majority. The ad-
dress of the Republican state committee
printed on our first page today is a stirring
one and presents forcibly the duty of Civ
ing candid and united support to the state
ticket. The candidates ON that ticket are
those which were the choice of a large ma
iority Of Windham county Republicans and
this county ought to do its full share toward
the usual Republican majority in the state.
No less is it a duty TO hold our local ma
iorities ON the county ticket intact. The
Democrats are well organized and are ac-
lively at work to make break in these
majorities in the several towns. From the
tenor OF the speeches made in their county
convention last week it is evident that they
are counting confidently on Republican in
difference 10 aid their cause. In this they
ought 10 be disappointed. We believe even
