Supervisors OF Federal Elections.

Supervisors of Federal Elections.
The republican newspapers are making
some very reckless statements in their crit
icisrns Of the bill introduced into the House
by Representative De Almond of Missouri,
which repeats the la y that provides for the
presence Of federal supervisors at the polls.
They assert that it lie the purpose CT the
Democratic party TO remove all safeguards
against unfair elections, so that in future 1t
can carry the elections by violence and
fraudulent methods. One Of them asserts
that Mr.. Cleveland owes bis election 70
/ fraud aud terrorism, and that the alliance
OF the southern Bourbons with the Tam
many bosses will undoubtedly be able to
secure the enactment Of the repeal bill dur
/ ing the first session OF the next congress-
] The country has not forgotten that prior
20 the last election it was asserted by the
republican papers that it was the purpose OF
the Tsmmanyites 20 give the democratic
ticket an overwhelming majority in New
York city by fraudulent means, and that
throughout the south the democrats would
carry the election by violence But did
they attempt to prove any one OF their as
sertionsi They preten ded there would be
fraud and violence In order to give the
federal election officers a chance to scare
voters away from the polls. They had no
evidence that fraud was contemplated.
In New York city, however, Supervisor
of Elections Davenport acted as If he had
evidence that thousands Of democrats had
registered who had no right to do so. and
as il the ballot-boxes were going to be
ourdened with fraudulent ballots.
So far as known there was no Intentional
wrong committed in the registration aud
no fraudulent ballots found their way into
the ballot-boxes. And there was neither
fraud nor violence in the south. That being
the case Is It not time to get rid OF such men
as Supervisor Davenport 2 He has drawn
hundreds OF thousands Of dollars from the
federal treasury for doing nothing. except
to give the republican papers an excuse for
charging the democrats with fraud. Why
should the public money be wasted in any
such manner
If it were not for the Dsvenports no re-
publican paper would be guilty of uttering
the falsehood that Mr.. Cleveland owes his
election ito fraud and terrorism" There
isn't decent and self-respecting republican
In the country who does not believe Mr..
Cleveland was fairly elected. II there was
doubt Of the fairness Of bis election the re-
publicans would have ooncocted some
scheme before this to prevent his Inaugural
ton. They are not slow to gain political
advantages by unfair means. They did not
hesitate TO count in Gen. Hayes. He him
self virtually admitted, after his Inaugural
ton, that he had not been elected by recog-
MIXING the democratic state governments of
South Carolina and Louisiana, the electoral
votes of which states were counted Tor him.
The Democratic party will do right il il
rids the government of such men as Super
visor Davenport. He has fattened at the
public crib too long already.

The Supreme Court Vacancy.

The supreme court vacancy.
IL Is only about six weeks before the end
/ of President Hsrrison's term of Office, but
1t is not probable that he will leave the va
cancy caused by the death Of Mr.. Justice
Lamar to lie filed by Mr.. Cleveland. he
has many friends whom he would like to
appoint TO 50 high place as that Of q JUS
tice of she supreme court, and it is only rea-
sonable to suppose that he will select one of
them for it. Naturally the republican
leaders want to keep control Of one branch
OF the government il they can. A majority
Of the supreme court Justices are rspub-
licans, and while there is no immediate
probability Of the political complexion OF
the court being changed. still it is hardly
probable that the republicans would neglect
an opportunity to strengthen their ma
jority.
II the President should delay making a
nomination until within few days Of his
retirement the democratic senators might
prevent its confirmation by fllibustering
tactics, but they could not be depended
upon to do anything of that kind. The
probabilities are, however, that he will
soon make a nominal
The question arises. will he give the place
TO the north or the south? There is no
southern man on the supreme court bench
unless Mr.. Justice Harlan is considered
one As a matter Of fact. however, although
he is from Kentucky he is a western, rather
than southern, man.
Unless, therefore. the President proposes
TO shut out the south from any representa-
ton on the bench Of the highest courtin the
land he will nominate a southern man.
There are republicans on the bench and
at the bar in the south who are qualified for
place on the bench Of the supreme court.
In looking for an available southern man
the President could hardly fail to consider
the qualifications OF Judge Pardee
and Judge Speer. Both are well
known throughout tie south and the Senate
would not have to call for information con-
corning either in the event of the nominal
ton of one or the other of them.
II is probable that Judge Speer is better
known to the President than Judge Pardee,
for the reason that he was in congress for
awhile and has delivered public addresses
that have attracted attention. And be-
sides, he is a native of the south. 1t will
soon be known, probably, whether or not
the President intends to consider south ern
men at all in connection with the place.

The Souls Awakening.
From the CornhiU Magazine.
YESTERDA'

Undine speaks;
stand in the hush of the Fastening river
Under willows that culver from gray to green:
And the dreaming Lilies raise fair flower faces
To touch my knees, from their deep recesses.
The cool, clear pools where the rushes lean.
fear no care and feel no sorrow,
Life to you mortals SO full of pain,
To me goes by as a dream of pleasure
Like the dancing river q laughing measure
And to-day in Tomorrow returns again.
And yet. sometimes, as | watch the river
| wonder if life could give something more
For at whites l weary of shade and sunlight.
or all the changes of star and moonlight
OF the ripples breaking against the shore. %
TO-DAY.
What has happened since yesterday
Was 1t a God who sat on yon stone
And sang sweet songs to the stream, alone.
While peeped from under the willows RrayY
And his eyes l1t on mine as l wondering stood
And his wonderful eyes shone clear and still
Like some mountain lake in the heart OF a hill
Or pool in the depths of a wood.
And he beckoned me on where the lilies swayed
On the CLASSY stream, with their bright eyes
wide.
And trembling, waited by his side.
And as listened, the song he PLAYED
On the reedy pipes wove into my brain
Music that told of pain and strife
OF love and Of longing, the song of life;
Some day shall hear it again.
know not how long stood mid the flowers
With the song in my ears and his eyes on mine.
But know that somehow have passed the line
Which separates this day from that: the hours
Are not as once. Something has passed away.
Changing the song OF the summer birds,
/ would had never heard his words
o, for yesterday-yesterday!

Death of Justice Lamar

By the death of Mr.. Justice Lamar the
country has lost a great and good man.
He was profound scholar, q statesman of
the best type and an upright judge. In all
the relations Of life he was guided by pure
motives, aud was gentle aud Just to all
who came into contact with him either as q
private citizen or as public official. His
life was one we'll worthy of imitation. He
was ambitious because he had abilities th at
fitted him for great places, but be did not
seek to gain his purposes by pulling down
others. Ee was more ready 20 aid than
hinder the progress Of contemporaries.
His influence was always in the direction
of that which was honest and good. 1t was
an influence that was felt by the college
students when he occupied q professors
chair, by his fellow members when he CO.
cupied a seat in the United States Senate
by his associates in the government when
he filed a cabinet position, and by the JUS
tices with whom he sat in the supreme
court Those who knew him best loved
him most, and those who knew him only by
| reputation admired him for his intellect
and his sterling integrity.
he was typical southerner. BE was
quick to resent an intentional injury and
equally quick to make reparation when in
the wrong. Warm-hearted and generous, he
was ever ready to extend helping hand to
the needy and deserving. He loved the
south and was prompt to speak in her
behalf. Nothing he could do to promote
her welfare was left undone. He sympa-
thized with her people when they we're
struggling in poverty, and rejoiced with
them when they achieved prosperity.
History will give him place among those
Of the country's sons who are worthy OF re-
membrance. In the south there will be no
need Of monuments to keep alive his menu
DRY, That will abide in the hearts of the
| paonia

companions are of the same calling; we shine
boots and sell newspapers, and With what We
earn we feed and clothe ourselves. and as far as
can assist our families. At other times the
same thing has occurred as to day, but no one
has dared 70 make a complaint, and If there
was a newspaper that would do it the facts
would be denied by some official; but to-day
they cant deny what is taking place"

great man.

There are so many conflicting reports
about the probable naval review and the
visit of the Prince of Wales and a British
fleet to this country that it is inpo sill lie to
pick out the truth II the prince should
decide to come, the New York Times has it
that Great Britain will send "her entire
channel squadron to the naval review. Ii
this is done there will be present the most
powerful fleet assembled to-day under one
flag" That is enough to raise ones expec-
tatious sky high. But the Sun says: cit
may be said authoriiatively that the Prince
OF Wales will not yield to the solicitations
that he should visit the Chicago exhibition.
He will have pleasanter duties on hand at
the time bis presence is desired in Chicago. -
The rumored betrothal aud wedding OF the
Duke Of York and the Princess May is al
luded to. At the same time. while il is a
matter of conjecture whether or not the
Prince of Wales will attend, it is also q
matter Of doubt whether there will be a
naval review, as at first proposed No ap-
preparation for the purpose has yet been
made by congress. aud the Herald says:
4" If invitations had not gone out to foreign
navies to participate it can be safely said
that the committee would decline TO appro-
PIRATE any money for the purpose" At the
same time the Herdld'S correspondent ae
Washington and the naval authorities are
not sure but that the appropriation will fail
aud the review prove a farce after all.
