should the Liberal ticket win the day.
During the last two years of Liberal rule
moro institutions of vice and crime have
come in our midst, a dozen times over, than

Liberal candidate for mayor is the pro-
prietor of drug store on the corner of
Grant avenue Twenty-fifth street, where
he has conducted bar in connection, and
1t is said without sharing has profits with
the city. Over his store is a large gam
bling hall which is allowed to run in full
force.
Now can anyone conscientiously support
such a man for mayor!
a man who viii conduct and favor such
institutions himself, and rent the second
floor of his building for one Of the greatest
of evils, is not a safe person to preside over
such commonwealth as Ogden. We leave

AN EXCuLPAToRY EXCUSE.

Secretary Foster is quoted as saying with
regard to the probable extension of the AVS,
that ''it is not always the best plan for a
perfectly solvent man to pay out all the
money he has in his pocket at once. 1t is
prudent to look ahead a little"
This is very true. But it is NO less true
that man who, with money enough to pay
off his interest-bearing debts, fails to meet
them at maturity, pursues very bad busi-
ness policy. In this case either the Treasury
has money enough to pay the residue of the
Az per cent bonds, or it has not. Ifit has, it is
folly to leave them unpaid; if not, the record
of the party which has brought the Treasury
to that pass from condition of plethora two
years ago must be acknowledged to be ex-
ceedingly unfortunate.
In addition, the Secretary's remark un-
fortunately provokes telling retort Ger
tainly it is prudent to look ahead little;
and the time to look ahead is when govern
ments or individuals are determining the
limit of their expenditures. If the Fifty
first Congress had exercised that common
sense trait it might not be necessary now for
the Secretary of the Treasury to present this
excuse for the non-payment OF the bonds as
they fall due.

COKE REGION DISORDERS.

The last fatal shooting affray in the coke
regions produces more than the usual con-
fict of statements. The disputes rs to the
facts indicate that one side or the other
must be indulging in delibera ate falsehood
for the purpose of throwing the odium of the
affair on the other side. Judicial investi-
cation will in time show on which side the
lying has been done, and expose the people
who would lie about such serious matter
in their real and contem ptible character.
Beyond this it is only necessary to say
that the law must be respected in the coke
regions, as anywhere else. The Sherif's
officers represent the law, and are entitled
to respect in that character. If they make
mistakes or abuse their power they
are liable to correction by legal means But
the people who attack them, on whatever
pretext, place themselves in open antagon-
ism to the law. By persisting in that
course they assume the character of public
snemies

pELAwARE,s BALLOT REFORM.

Delaware is moving to put herself in the
ballot reform column with bill prepared
by one of the Democratic leaders of the
Legislature It is noticeable that the meas
ure adopts less of the form OF the Australian
ballot than any other measure. Its principal
provisions for secrecy of the ballot are ex-
ciusion Of every one except two party chal-
lengers and the judges from the vicinity of
the polls, private room or booth for the
voter 10 prepare or select his ballot and the
printing not of single official ballot, but of
separate party ballots, at the public ex-
pense. These are not allowed to get outside
the polls, but the voter is given one for each
party, anc after selecting one he is to return
tine other, 10 be deposited in box for un-
used ballots
1t is one of the peculiar TEXTURES of this
measure that it does not contemplate the ex-
istence OF more than the two regular parties.
Two chailengers are permitted, one for each
party, and the summary of the bill plainly
indicates that when the voter has selected
one party ballot he will have but one unused
ballot 10 return. Delaware legislation evil

THE MICHIGAN IDEA.

The tendency toward elections by the
people has been illustrated by recent de-
mands for the popular election Of Senators.
The Washington Star credits that tendency
with the change in the election of Presiden-
tai electors adopted in Michigan. We can
hardly credit that step to any more exalted
motive than the desire to obtain party ad-
vantage.
The idea of popular election of the Presi-
dent has had practical effect for many
years, with the popular will somewhat
hampered by the retention of the original
machinery, which delegates that duty to
chosen representatives, of the people. The
change in Michigan, which elects represen-
tative electors by Congressional districts
and apportions the electors-at-large between
the east and west sections of the State, does
not bring the election of the President any
nearer the people. 1t simply divides the
electoral vote of the State, and is plainly
based on the conviction of the Democratic
Legislature that Michigan would under the
usual system give her vote to the Republic
cans. --
Nevertheless the new departure intro
duces an element of uncertainty in the
Presidential election that il followed by one
or two other States, will defy all calcula-
tions. For the last three or four elections
the result has turned on the electoral vote OF
two or three pivotal States. New York and
Indiana have been generally recognized as
the places where the victory is to be won or
lost. If all the States should choose elect
ors by Congressional districts such calcula-
tions would be futile, and the means adopted
to carry doubtful States might become use.
less. If but two or three States should fol-
low the example of Michigan, the tables of
electoral votes on which campaign managers
base their tactics might be rendered highly
unreliable.
If all the States should adopt the plan the
change in campaign methods might be for
the advantage of politics. As the circum-
stances are such that nearly every change
will inure TO the advantage Of the Demo
Gratis, it will LOOK good deal like playing
with marked cards But that it is any
more so than admitting lot of half-devel-
oped States to the Union expressly to swell
the Republican column is hardly tenable
position.

THE GAS PROSPECT.

The meeting OF the Philadelphia Com
pany, while containing especial interest to
the shareholders in the earnings and pros
pect for continued dividends. will attract at
teution in its bearing on the future supply
o: gas. On the first point, the report of net
earnings exceeding 81. 100, 900 is a good
showing; but it presents the usual feature of
the surplus largely offset by expenditures in
extending lines and drilling wells.
On the subject of the duration of gas. re-
ported declaration from Mr.. Westinghouse
is that a supply can be relied upon for the
next six wears, and that when the natural
article gives out the company will at once
supply through its existing plant artificial
gas for heating purposes This would be a
very comfortable outlook if in connection
Herewith it did not contemplate an advance
in price to 500. 80, 40, 80 and
even 60 cents per thousand" The pros
pect of gas at prices which make it only
an article of luxury is not a subject of
especial popular Interest. That gas in one
form or another can always be OBJ tanned by
those willing TO pay fancy prices for the
privilege can be taken as q matter of
course. But the hope that gas will be
abundant at such price that common peo-
pie can afford ii does not seem very encour-
aging. For those who can afford to invest
money in gas-saving appliances the present
price and perhaps a little higher, is more
economical, when labor and cleanliness are
considered, than coal. But gas above 25
cents per thousand would be an article of
luxury beyond the reach OF The vast bulk
OF Piusburg's population.
Unless, therefore, nature shows a more
encouraging record and turns up with a
fresh gas supply, it looks as if the bulk OF
Pittsbulg's consumers must make up their
minds to the full resumption of coal. In
that case we should address ourselves to the
encouragement of devices for preventing the
waste o! one-thlrd that fuel in smoke.

THE CONVERSION OF BISMARCK,


The immense difference it makes in q
mans political views whether he is on the
inside or the outside has been illustrated
very markedly in our own politics. But
we have never had more striking example
5han in the contrast between Bismarck, the
head of the Government, and Bismarck, the
member OF the Reichstag in opposition to
the Government
There are other peculiar features to the
election which has resulted in sending the
old Chancellor into the German Parliament
after a contest Which is, to say the least, less
complimentary than his expectations. The
spectacle of the German Government using
all its influence in favor of Socialist can
didate IN preference to the election of the
statesman who created the Empire is the
supreme illustration of the proverb that
politics make strange bedfellows. Never
tbeless, the right-about-lace Of the
veteran himself is the most notable
feature of the affair. For q generation
tine man of blood and iron has been the ex-
ponent of the theory that Ministers of the
Empire are accountable only to the EN-
pSIOIt llidb Nllt NHOs having tlSlO OulcS,
presumes to criticize or oppose the policy of
the Government, is an offender liable to such
punishment as he dealt out to Falk and
Prettkamner, and that opposition in Par
Lament cannot possibly be made consistent
with loyalty to the Government.
But since the ole statesman has found that
a rather ungrateiul Government can get
along without him, there is a complete re-
versal Of his ideas. The place for the s,ates-
man who has been turned out OF Office is in
the opposition. where he can call the Min
listers to account for their acts. The mature
decision of Bismarck's sagest years is that
he fully adopts the Anglo-Saxon parlia-
meutary ideas. He determines that he can
be loyal and yet lead the opposition in the
parliamentary body as easily as Mr. Glad
stone After lifetime of opposition to the
sysscm of restraining the Government by
representative criticism Bismarck appears
on the s:sge as one of the representative
critics, fully convinced of the utility Of the
representative system.
Ths Is not less Instructive than amusing.
