THE case against the Belgian glass.
workers detained at Ellis Island seems
to be clear enough. Ii they were not
imported under contract appearances
are decidedly deceiviug, notwithstand-
ing their straight swearing to the con-

against them and from their side it is
not likely to improve.

TIE ripening turkey little knows how
hungry Democrats are this year.
An Interesting Question.


A reader of the INTELMGEScEE desires
10 know whether in the event of Mr..
Cleveland's death before inauguration
Mr.. Stevenson wound become President.
That depends. The question is inter
esting.
Up to this time there has been no
election OF President and Vice Presi-
dent to succeed President Harrison and
Vice President Morton. Electors have
been chosen and the understanding is
that good working majority OF them
will cast their votes for the nominees OF
the Democratic national convention,
Grover Cleveland and AdIai L. Steven
son.
The electoral college is based on the
presumption that it will choose for Pres.
ident tho most distinguished and capa-
BILE citizen OF the republic and for Vice
President the citizen most worthy to
take his place in the event Of death, re.
moval or disability.
The practice is to ratify tho choice OF
the national convention represented by
the majority of the electors chosen.
Electors who should now refuse to do
this would be branded with infamy Tor
all time, so far have we departed from
the original idea.
What the Democratic electors would
do in tho event OF the death or other
disability of Mr.. Cleveland We do not
know. There is no precedent us guide.
We hope they would not feel in honor
bound to give US Adlai to reign over us.
yet in theory his party must have
thought him worthy or it would not
have placed him next to tho head.
The Democratic electors would be free
under the constitution to make their
own selection without any regard to the
Chicago conventions choice Tor second
place. They might think it their duty
to their party as well as to their
country to pass by Adlai and select
one of tho statesmen of their party.
Or the delegates to the Chicago conven-
ton might reasonable and suggest an
other man.
Again new set OF delegates might
be chosen to hold new convention to
name another man. The Democratic
party having been highly successful at
the polls there would be an uncommon
iy lively scramble for these honors and
opportunities.
The IxrELuGENcER sincerely hopes
that this question may not arise in
practical form and that Mr. Cleveland
may be spared to wear for tho full term
the.honora he has so handsomely won.
