IT did not require congressional in
vestigation to prove that the methods
practiced by John l. Davenport in
'supervising" federal elections were at
tended with outrages which were de-
signed to promote partisan advantage.
This was sufficiently apparent in the
character of the power with which he
was invested and the line of procedure
which he adopted. But the investi-
CATION gives an official exhibit of the
abuses connected with his supervisory
performances, showing that they
worked injustice, caused a great misuse
of public money and established an
army of partisan workers. Sufficient
reason is shown why the federel cleo
ton law giving. theSpower of super
vision to Davenport should be repealed,
but step further should be taken in
bringing Davenport to punishment for
transcCnding the power given him 10y

THE claim that Mrs Louise F. Warden
of Hanover, N. H., puts in before the
legislature for the reward offered. for
the capture of her daughters murderer
savors of a greed that is decidedly I'M
seemly. That the guilty man is behind
the bars awaiting the punishment that
the law. puts upon, him should be re-
ward enough for her. 1t recalls. the
fact too, that Christie Warden's father,
though "a man of means, would not add
to the reward offered by the state when
the search for Almy was still on. Mrs
Warden's claim has the flavor of blood
money about it. too strongly.

Young Kamn, IA Prominent Figure in the
George Case, Declared Insane.
KINGSTON, N. Y, Feb. 8. - Henry
Kamm, a young man who figured promi-
nently in the Rev. George granddaughter
case, at Leeds, Green county, about two
years ago, has been declared insane and
taken to the Hudson River State hospital
at Poughheepsie.
At eociable held short time before
Dominic Georges arrest, the parsOu suy-
gested to kamm that II mock marr re
be performed between him and pretty
Lottie Townsend, who was Georges vic
tim and for whose death he is now scrv-
ing 20 years sentence in prison. Kamm,
knowing such ceremony to be legal,
would not consent.
His insanity is believed to have reeE
brought about by religious excitement.

"RcMro," the dog which made a-fa+
nous reputation in connection with the
Johustown flood, died the other day.
The animal was noticed extensively by
the newspapers for his7worl1 as a res
cuer in the disaster, particularly for
saving the life of Mrs Kress, the wife
of his master. She was washed off a
roof on which the members of the fam
lily were afloat, and would certainly
have drowned had not the dog swan to
her aid, and, selling her skirt In his
teeth, regained the raft after a despeI
ate struggle. For some time past tb
dog had been blind and he had been
cared for as tenderly as though he wCD2
human.

THE proposed amendment to the
charter of the Horse Railroad Co has a
1.-The people be id" significance. 1t
provides that in case plans proposed by
the railroad company for changing the
layout and grade of streets are not &C
cepted by the selectmen, representing
the town, and the road board on behalf
of the city, a committee of three disin-
terested persons, neither of whom shall
be residents or taxpayers of the town,
shall determine the matter. Senator
Root and the representatives in the
general assembly from Waterbury and
Naugatuck should be in at the, death of
this cheeky petition. The. taxpayers and
citizens of Waterbury and Naugatuck
are the best judges as to what portion
of their highways shall be given up tc
the Horse Railroad Co, and upon what
conditions.

THE month of January, 1898, will
long be remembered as rating the death
of number of distinguished Ameri-
cans. On the list is found the names of
Rutherford B. Hayes,ex-presldent of the
United States; Benjamin F.. Butler, dis
tinguished ASA lawyer, a scholar, de-
batter and soldier; Rev Phillips
Brooks, leading .Episcopalian and an
orator of wide reputation; Lucius .. G..
Lamar, justice of the supreme court
of the United States; James Campbell
of Philadelphia, member of President
Pierce's cabinet, and lastly James G..
Blaine, than whom no American occu-
pied for the last thirty years a more
prominent place in the minds and hearts
of his countrymen. Surely during the
first month of 1898, death has been busy
among the prominent men of the
United States.

THE new Columbus postage-stamps,
being about twice as large as the older
kinds, have room enough for pictures of
greater interest than the heads which
usually appear upon the postage-stamps
of all nations. The coloring is also
artistic, and every collector is adding a
set to his album. 1t Is interesting to
k1ow that this species of official cele-
bration of the Columbus year was sug-
gcstcd by Assistant Postmaster Gaylor,
of New York city. and among the early
applications for set of the stamps was
one in behalf of the ninc-year-old queen
of Holland. by the Dutch consul in New
York.
