The Republicans in Indiana have been
s%ingularly fortunate in putting men in
nomination for Congress who are popu-
lar and able. The most OF them are
able speakers, and with the issues all
on their side, put their opponents in an
unenviable attitude before the public.
All efforts to draw several of the Demo-
cratic candidates into joint debates
have proved fruitless. They know bet

NOTWITHSTANDING the decision of the
New York Court OF Appeals sustaining
the gerrymander in that State, the
weight of authority is still decidedly
against the constitutionality of that
kind of legislation. The decisions of
the Supreme Courts of Michigan ::and
Wisconsin are directly opposed to the
decision of New York, and it is worthy
of remark that while in both of the
other States Democratic judges con.

court divided on party lines. only its

The dissenting opinion of Judge An
drews, concurred in by Judge Finch,
argues the case on broad constitutional
grounds, and reaches the same cOnclu-
sions as those reached by he courts in
Michigan and Wisconsin. Judge An.
drews says:
1t is the cardinal principle of free repre-
sentative government that every elector
shall have equal weight IN exercising the
suffrage. PropOrtiOnate re presentation &C.
cording to population Is the rule, both in
the federal and State constitutions. except
where by reason of constitutional arrange

has been departed from. The rule can

representative system, except under the
express sanction of the people. given in the
Constitution or necessarily implied from
Its provisions. This IS a constitutional
principle SO fundamental and SO well rec.
ognized that the citation of authorities in
Its support is unnecessary.
There is no getting away from these
principles, and the Journal predicts that
in the end they will be every where rec
ognized as controlling. They were so
recognized by the courts of Michigan
and Wisconsin, the Democratic Chief
justice of Michigan declaring that all
gerrymasders were nothing more nor
less than partisan advantage taken in
defiance of the Constitution and in utter
disregard of the rights of the citizens.n

recent session. having settled the State
debt. the policy Of paving State taxes IN
taX-receivaoie coupons Is no longer po-

of Richmond, Petersburg. Norfolk, Lynch
burg. Alexandra and other Virginia cities
and towns have been paving their taxes IN
coupons every year. bY which they have
saved large percentage for themselves.
WHO WISH TO AVAIL THEMSELVES.

desire TO avail themselves OF their legal
right 20 do the same | respectfully an
nounce that will be in my Office In the
United States court house and pOst-Office
building on and after Monday. the 21st
instant. and will take pleasure then and
there IN giving information TO all appll-
cants. either in person Or by letter, by
which they can most conveniently procure
coupons with which they can pay their
taxes IN the mode prescribed by the pre-
sent laws of Virginia, and without any
trouble 10 themselves.
