THE law of Michigan providing for the
choice of electors by Congressional Districts
instead of by the State at Large has been de-
clared constitutional by the Supreme Court
and so the Democrats will get portion Of
the electoral vote of that hitherto solid Re-
publican State. There never should have
been any doubt about the constitutionality of
the law in the first place. because the Consti-
tuition of the United States declares as
plainly as English can declare it that
leach State shall appoint in such
manner as the Legislature thereof
may direct, number of electors" etc. TO
Congress is reserved the power of determining
the time of choosing the electors and the
day on which they shall give their votes
which day shall be the same throughout the
United States. but il was clearly the purpose
of the trainers of the Constitution TO leave
the States in entire control of the manner Of
choosing electors to represent them. Every
State in the Union can enact the same law if
they desire and if they were.to do 80 we would
not have any more Republican Presidents in
hurry.

MKINLEY AND The PLATFORM.

In turning over the pages of a recent maya
zine our eye fell upon the following paragraph
in an advertisement:
Personal civilization is only begun when
we dress well. use good language. compute
eclipses, analyze soaps, make roads, paint
pictures. build houses and print advertise
ments."
This very astonishing summary of the Incl
dents necessary to a civilization Of the person
(whatever that may be- reminds us most
forcibly of the platforms of the Republican
party, both Of which, the advertisement and
the platform. undoubtedly owe their
parentage to Jenkinson's luminous Cos
mogony of Creation"
The platfarm may have more planks than
the advertisement or the "Cosmogony" but
it is in no respect clearer. Obscure, however
as it is. il is light itself as compared with
Major McKinley's exposition of it when he
declared that 80 far as tariff is concerned. all
the party aims at is to make the manufactu-
rers of Europe pay the taxes which this Gov
eminent has to raise to pay its expenses.
We are charitably disposed and unwilling
to believe that a man has uttered deliberate
untruth if it be possible to find any reason
able theory upon which he might have been
misled into making any given statement, how
ever absurd. In this spirit we have tried
hard to persuade ourselves that Mckinley
was suffering some temporary alteration of
mind when he made his statement, but the
effort is an unsuccessful one, and We have
been compelled to give it up.

BLAINE and Harrison are evidently not ON
speaking terms, because when Blaine resigned
he did not pay the customary visit of respect
to the President nor has be yet sent his con-
gratulations to his late chief. although he has
been very prompt to congratulate Whitelaw
Reid on his nomination as Vice President.
If the ex-Secretsry should take his spite out
at the polls he could turn away many more
votes from Harrison than Rum Romanism-
and-Rebellion Burchard turned away from
himself in 1884.

THOSE Of the enemy who are calculating on
the strength of the Third Party in the South
in the hope that it will be able to seriously
weaken the Democracy will find themselves
badly mistaken. There is no white man in
the South who has arrived at that stage Of
idiocy as not to know that Republican vic
tory means Force Laws and negro supremacy,
and they are hardly ready yet to put the feet
Of the negro on their heads by abandoning
the Democratic party.

THE proposition of the free com
age men, says the Philadelphia
Ledger, rs that the government,
which is really the agent OF the
people OF the entire country, shall
pay to the owners of silver bullion
100 cents for the same amount OF
silver which 1t can now buy in the
open market for 70 cents, In
other words, an investment of 500
in silver bullion at the present mar
ket price would enable the purchas-
er, under a free coinage law, to de
mand I43 standard silver dollars
from the government. On every
500 worth OF pure silver, the govern
ment-that is, the people-would be
the loser to the extent OF S45, and
this considerable profit would go in
to- the pocket otthe purchaser ofsiiv-
er at the present market price" This
would be very nice for the few who
have the silver, but the farmers
and workingmen would have to foot
the bill.

This has relation to the

PRoHIBIrIoN IN Iowa will proba-

compromise. A bill has been pre-
pared which will leave the prohlbi-
ton laws in force in all places OF less
than 1000 inhabitants. and allow a
vote to be taken in to Vns of 1000
inhabitants or more, as to whether
or not license to sell liquor shall be
granted, The license fee is to be
from $1,000 to $500, and saloon
keepers are to be required to give
bonds for S1o,o 900 each conditioned
upon their observance of the liquor
laws of the State. The Local OPP.
ton bill appears to have the support
of some prohibitionists who despair
of having the prohibition law enforced
in the river towns.

MIR. EDITOR:
l. is not necessary for me to further
write in defense of our American or
Maryland Bible Socitits, for those who
have informed themselves of their rules
ard regulations have seen that they need
no defense. And those who have not
yet been informed, and desire to know
something about them, there are sources
from which they can obtain instruction.
1t does not require philosophical
mind TO comprehend the immense good
that has been, and is being done by these
charitable institutions. OF course to
those who are dull OF comprehension, and
whose heart is not in the work, it is not
necessary for us to demonstrate the
source in which they may obtain inform
alton. A tutor can teach his pupils, but
he cannot learn them. Therefore, Mr..
f iitor, do not think it is necessary.

troversy. ID. j. GIVEN.
