There arc encouraging signs that public
sentiment throughout the country is
coming to recognize more clearly than
ever before the necessity OF intelligence in
the exercises of the suffrage. The first
step i'll this direction, of recent wears, was
the adoption by Mississippi in 1890 of Il
new Constitution which denies the ballot
to the man who cannot pass an educa-
tiOnal test. Last wear two Northern
States took steps in the same direction.
Maine adopted an amendment to the
Constitution which, while not DENYING
the right to illtcrates who now exercise
it, debars from the suffrage hereafter any
man who cannot read and write. Cali
tornia also endorsed proposition ioran
educational qualification requiring every
voter to be able to write his name and
read any section of the Constitution in
the EnGl sh language. Michigan has
now applied the same principle in anot hcr
way The Legislature has Just passed a
law giving the right of voting in all
municipal, township, aud village elections
to women, but only to women who can
read, thereby meeting the Objection that
the proposed extension Of the suffrage
would result in increasing the ignorant
vote. Here, then, are four States, in the
extreme East and the extreme West, or
the northern frontier and on the southern
boundary, which show in different way,
the same tendency to make intelligence a
prerequisite to the ballot.

Congrcssmau-clect Everett of MaSsa-
chusctts has promptly taken the right
position on the question of patronage.
He waS asked to endorse the candidacy Of
ancgro applicant for the Office Of Recorder
of DEEDS at Washington, and he has re-
fused to do so, saving in explanation of
his position: II have for long series of
years felt that the custom bv whichmcm-
hers OF Congress take an active part in
the distribution Of Offices is 4 bad one
and made up my mind that if WAS
ever honorcd by an election to Congress,
! would, to the utmost of my ability,
Withdraw from all share in endorsements
recommendations and solicitations. He
will forward to the proper quarter pc
ttlOn for any constituent who IS afraid
it will not otherwise reach its dcStina-
ton, but he will have no hand in the con
troll of distribution of the patronage. 81
am not Conccitcd enough DR.. Everett
adds, "to think that can change things
all by myself, but dare not wait ioran,
one else to begin II is great thing to
have somebody make the beginning, and
the time is coming when Dr. Everett will
have many imitators.

Ned n dead.

A San Francisco dispatch says: Ned
McGowan, a notorious character Of the
early days in San Francisco. who has
been lying at deaths door in st. Mary's
Hospital for several months, died in
that institution on the Sth instant.
MCGOWAN was bitterly antagonistic to
the Vigilance Committee, and that Or
ganization tried to get hold OF him for
the purpose OF hanging him. Its leader
the late William T. Coleman, was
among the first to come forward with
a subscription TO assist McGowan in
his last days OF distress. McGowan
did not long survive Coleman.
