THE STATE CANV.dSSERS.

The members of the State Board OF Can
vassers convened yesterday, but declined to play
into the uncean and dishonest hands OF DAVID
B. Hill. If he expected them one and all 10
blacken their regulations beyond redemption Tor
all time by lending themselves to his conspracles
against the balOt-box he was mistaken Inc
Board conducted itself with proprety. 1t met,
save in one particular, the best expectation or
honest men. No disposition was manifested on
the part of any of its members TO defy the law
and subvert the will of the majority by counting
in candidates who had been rejected at the
POLLS. The order issued by Judge Edwards re-
straining the Boards action was treated Win due
respect, only the vote for Congressman Deing
canvassed The refusal of Nh. Rice, Secretary
of State, of the perfectly reasonable request OF
counsel to be allowed to examine certain returns
which are the subject of dispute was indeed
grave blunder The public has the right to see
public records, and election returns are public
records With equal justice Mr.. Rice could close
his office doors during business hours.
But with this exception no fault is to be found
with yesterdays proceedings. The Board Is to
meet again to-day, and we cannot bring our
selves to believe that majority OF It's men,
bers will do anything to disturb the good i'm
preston which was made yesterday. No one
who is acquainted with John Bogart will believe
that he can be induced to tarnish his honored
name by doing the unspeakably dirty work which
Hill expects at his hands. The same remark ap-
plies to Frank Rice His friends scorn the idea
that he will consent to make shipwreck OF MS
promising future in order to please boss who
is as selfish as he is disreputable. And Attor-
ney-General Tabor, who goes out OF Office this
wear can ii be that he will place foul blot on
the closing chapter of his administration just to
oblpe Hill? As for Wemple and Danforth, the
other members of the Board, they are recognized
as acknowledging Hill men but it is supposable
that their devotion to him is not so ardent as
TO induce them TO commit political suicide at his
solicitation.
They are all men of intelligence. They are
all familiar with the requirements OF the cleo
ton Jaws. They are perfectly well aware, there
fore, that their functions are purely ministerial.
They cannot 90 behind the returns. The ques-
ton as to whether or not Mr.. Sherwood is eligible
they have no authority to pass upon. On the
duly certified copies of the returns made by the
Boards of County Canvassers they are to act,
hearing in mind that the Constitution provides
that "each house (of the Legislatlre) shall be
the iudRe of the elections returns and qualifica-
lions of its own members" The Republicans
are making no unreasonable demands. All they
ask of the Board is that the will of the people
rs expressed at the balot-box in November shall

THE TALK OF THE DAY.

1t Is noticeable fact that street merchants better
known as fakrs,' steadily increasing in number,
not only in the large cities, but in the smaller towns.
The term fakr," by the way, with Its suggestion OF
knavery is most unfortunate designation for this class
of men, a large proportion Of whom reputable and
honest men, doing perfectly legitimate business
Many of them become identified with certain loca-
TONS and ere known and respected by all the business
men In the neighborhoOd. But it must be admitted
that good many OF these vendors are frauds OF the
first water, who do only fake business. And this
suggests an genealogical question. Why do we call
such men akrs," when we really ought to call them
"fakers,' that is, men who fake'? The "fakir" OF
the Orient is a religious ascetic or begging monk.

The proposition of the counsel for the several
Republican Senators elect whose elections are
contested, that the questions be submitted at
once to an extraordinary general term Of the
Supreme Court and then to the Court of APP
reals, is an eminently reasonable one. If Gov
ernor Hill and his coparceners have any desire
for Justice and fair dealing, they will put no
obstacle in the way of this plan, but will do all
in their power to further it.

No uptown movement is the motto OF the
Scotch Presbyterian Church situated in Four
teenth-st. near 6th-ave The decision OF its
officers to that effect was announced at meet
ing held last evening Recently overtures for
consolidation were made to it by the New-York
Church which has fine edifce in Harlem, the
proposition involving the abandonment of the
Fourteenth-St. building. The decision OF the
Scotch Church to remain in its old field is I'M
doubtedly wise. The uptown tendency among
churches should not be carried too far. The
downtown field is worth cultvating. Besides, a
removal from Fourteenth-st. to One-hundred-
twenty -eighth-s would mean the virtual wiping-
out of church with an honorable and successful
career.

stands out clear; that Governor Hill has set up
court there for the purpose of having his own

regular court. What tho outcome will be the
next few days will disclose. The most interest

from his hiding place of Supervisor Wech, who
disappeared with election returns in his pos

custody he was admitted to bail, Judge Kennedy
having no wish to deal harShly with him.

Mayor Chaplin holds on to the Mayors office, al
though he has been elected to Congress. 1t is o
game which Governor Hill has been playing and
that is enough to satisfy his Brooklyn admirer
that it is the thing TO do. When'a politician
ceases to care for the opinion of the honest and
reputable men Of his party, he naturally has re-
course to shameless acts which command the ad-
miration Of the worst elements. Doubleofiice
holding is the sort of thing which is commended
in all barrooms and low political resorts 1t is n
sharp trick to hold to everything in sight, and
to get double pay. 1t is what the saloon politi-
clans style practical politics. All members of the
