Give the Car Plenty of Rope.

From, The PhiIddsIphtd Record [Denl.).
MIR. Watson Of Georgia, member OF the
farmers alliance party, complained yesterday
that he could not get an opportunity to call up
a resolution requesting the ways and means
committee to report the sub-treesury bill. and
he complained more broadly that the third
House. In consequence OF which grievance he
gave notice that they would hereafter object 60
all requests for unanimous consent. 1t is rather
an irksome condition of Affairs thst the time of
the House. and of It's most important commit
tee, should be wasted on the fantastic schemes
of the alliancemen: but they have an I'm
doubted right to bring in their get-rich-Q quick
policies, and it would be right on general princi-
Piles TO give them hearing, irrespective OF
their threats OF obstructive tactics. They should
have all the rope they desire, Ak tt.zF

A Canadian farmer during last week
accomplished self-destrucsion in a manner
more horrible than any other suicidal
crank of the season. Tying himself to d
tree by the waist. he attached one end of a
rope to the VIII ffletree of team and the
other end TO his neck. Then, using IA heavy
bull whip, he cut the horses fearful slash
and they sprang away at a tremendous pace,
tearing the mans head completely frem his
body.

"a, From the Nelg York Times Qndl.
The operations of Messrs. Platt sld Quay in
rigging" the market for the sale of their pre-
tended influence at Minneapolis do not show

An Interesting Question

The question which Senator Hill has
raised with respect to the number of mem
bers that constitute the electoral college is
attracting some attention. he contends
that the electoral college must be made up
on the basis of the present apportionment of
congress instead of on the basis of the new
apportionment. He admits, Of course, that
there must be additions from the new states.
HIS view is that, although the Fifty third
congress is elected in November, it is not en-
larged until March 4, 1898, because the new
law declares that after March 8, 1898, the
House of Repre- sentatives shall be composed
of $50 members, to be apportioned as fol-
lows etc
He therefore insists that the electoral COL
lege must be made up on the basis of the
apportionment of the Fifty-second congress.
The better opinion, however. appears to
be that section 2 of article 2 of the con-
stitution settles the matter. That section
declares that each state shall appoint "a
number Of electors equal to the whole num-
Der Of senator's and representatives to
which the state may be entitled in con-
gress." There is DOT much doubt that this
opinion will prevail. The electoral college
will consist Of 444 members, and not of 40l,
as Senator Hill would have it.

The Harbor Appropriation.

1t is doubtful If Col. Lester will be able to
have the appropriation for Savannah hars
Dor restored to what IL was when the river
and harbor bill was sent to the Senate. The
war on the bill is so savage that congress-
men are becoming timid with regard to it.
IL seems little remarkable. however,
that Savannah harbor-the most important
harbor on the South Atlantic coast-should
have suffered at the hand Of the committee
on commerce after having been SO fairly
treated by the river and harbor committee.
There were senators who wanted to
have their states more literally treated
than the House bad treated them. and so
they used their influence to have the appro-
priations for rivers aud harbors in other
states cut down, SO that they could be
accommodated without greatly increasing
the total of the appropriations
1t would be interesting to know If
Georgia's senator's made a special effort in
behalf of Georgia's great harbor. 1t would be
unjust to say they did not. 1t is only
fair TO assume they did. and that they were
unable to prevent Savannah losing $l25, 900
OF the S400,0 900 she had in the bill.
The bill still provides for continuous work
on the Savannah harbor. and if that pro-
vision remains in the bill Savannah will
have cause to rejoice, even il she does not
ges within third of what she expected to
get for the next fiscal year.

A special from Mohetee. Tex. to the Phil
adelphia Press gives details of the formation
of a negro assassination society In Oklahoma
and Texas for the purpose OF avenging the
lynching of negroes by southern white men.
The story is alleged to have leaked out
through boy who overheard some negroes
talking about the matter, and gathered
from their conversation enough to show
him that they were in earnest The order
is oath-bound, and each members life is the
forfeit if he fails to carry out the orders of
the bloody three" who are at the head of
the organization. The dispatch says THE
power Of this society has probably been
felt in this part OF the country already in
the death of a white man who was found
hanging to a tree about four miles east of
this city last week." The story is cleverly
put together, but it contains a number Of the

The passage of the Chinese exclusion act
has had enc effect not foreseen by its au-
thors. One of the projects in connection
with the worlds fair at Chicago next year
is a congress of the worlds religions. The
idea OF the projectors is to secure the attend
ance of representatives of all the great reli-
gions of the world during the fair. Pursu-
ant to this idea the committee in charge
sought the assistance Of certain state de-
partment officials in Washington to be
placed In communication with distinguished
disciples OF Contucius in China, with view
to inviting them to attend the con-
gress. The exclusion bill was then pending.
But with it's passage the idea of inviting
Chinese scholars falls to the ground; they
would not be permitted TO enter the United
States If they accepted the invitation.

SIXTH DISTRICT.
St. Louis, County.

Duluth, Mimi, Special, Nov. 1O.-Returns
are coming in very slowly. All will not be
counted until tomorrow morning. Inc vote'
so far as can be judged from the returns,
has fallen off greatly from the registration.
In the city Of Duluth about y per cent was
cast. In Ely it fell off at least one-third
from the registration and about the same
for the rest Of the iron ranges. All the Dem
ocrats voted, but the Republicans remained
at home. Returns from thirteen precincts
in St. Louis county show 7S$ for Harrison Fri On
Bidwell and 315 for fusion electors. The
same precincts give Nelson ,l63, LAWYER
635, Donnelly 23S, Dean ~: The districts
are not the same as in 1888 or 1890 and
cannot be compared. The Republican vote
fell off greatly, however, on the iron ranges.
Twelve precincts give Searle $50, Baldwin
TIA and Parsons ia. The Indications are
that Searle will go out Of this county slight
ly ahead of Baldwin and that Nelson will
carry it by about 1900 to 1900. The legis-
lature will be close, but safe for the Re
publicans. One OF two county officials will
