THE Constitution provides that each

THE Constitution provides that each
house of Congress shall be the Judge OF
the elections, returns and qualifications
of its own members. The plain mean
ing of this is to determine who has
been chosen by the qualified voters, at
the legal time and places, and returned
according to the regulations prescribed
by the laws of the States or by Con-
gress. So that the recent secret as
sembling of the defeated republican
candidates for Congress in Virginia at
Washington, for the purpose OF induc-
ing the republican members OF the
House to give them the seats to which
their successful democratic opponents
were chosen by majorities of the quail
fled voters, at the legal time and places,
and returned according to the regula-
tons prescribed by the laws OF Virginia,
was not only ridiculous, but was an i'm
pudent and bare-faced atfront to Virgin
ia. and a gross insult to the republican
congressman whose action they desire
to affect. Such behavior is not surpris-
ing in respect of some Of those present,
but it is so in respect of the others, as it
certainly tends to strengthen the ia
NOUS erroneous assertion of Mr.. John
Wise, that "all Southern republicans
are apostates for the price of their
apostacY.

IMPORTANT SPRING ELECTIONS
Very important elections will be held
in Virginia on the fourth Thursday in
next May and the result may have an
important bearing on the contest next
fall. At the spring election officers are
to be chosen in every county in the
State. Judging from some intimations
thrown out yesterday there will be an
effort made by the republicans to cap
ture as many of these Offices as possible.
The republicans hope to effect fusion
with the populists and all other anti
democrats. The Offices in nearly every
county now are democratic. At
the elections four years ago the demo-
Gratis made almost clean sweep. Fol-

of good many county offices, but they

Fittzimmons Kills his Partner.


SYRACUSE, N. Y, Nov. 17.-At the
Opera House last evening during the
exhibition bout between the would-be
champion of the world, Robert Fitzsim-
mons, and Con Riordan, his sparring
partner, the latter was struck by Fitz-
simmons and the result of the blow
was death. Riordan, it is claimed, had
been drinking heavily, but dispite this
he was allowed to enter into the bout.
There were few exchanges and then
Fitzsimmons with a quick pass landed
on Riordan's jaw with his right, and
the latter reeled, fell to his knees and
Topped over like a dead man. Two
physicians endeavored to bring him
back to consciousness, but despite every
effort to revive him he died at $50
o'clock this morning. Fitz5immons
when informed of Riordan's death, was
much affected and burst into sobs. He
has been locked up to await the action
of the coroner. Fitzsimmons says that
he noticed after the first exchange of
blows that Reordan was not right. The
blow he delivered that caused the
trouble was, he says, as light as he
could make it, merely slapping him
with the back of the hand. he at
tributes his death to his poor condition
brought on by incessant drinking.
Fitzsimmons was taken before County
Judge Northrup at noon to-day and his
bail was fixed at $4,000, to answer to
the charge of manslaughter in the first
degree. In the court room FitZsimmons
said be would not have killed Riordan
for $4,000 and then broke down in
tears. He will be arraigned this after
noon, released on bail and appear at
the performance at Jacobs Opera House
this afternoon and evening.

The New York Press, rank republic
can, says: "Tammany must be exiled
from all the departments of the city
over which the republican mayor has
power of appointment. The business
of the successful party now is to give
the city of New York such good gov
eminent that the people will not desire
any change in the future, but should a
change come about, no principle is more
strongly engrafted in republican dogma
than that the majority must rule"
This is good and wise political advice
from a successful republican standpoint.
If the national democratic administra-
ton had exiled from all the depart
ments of the government, as soon as it
came into power, the party that elect
ed it would not have sustained such an
overwhelming defeat as it did last week.

THE low price of American farm
products is the result of a glutted mar
ket. Too much is produced for home
consumption, and foreigners are pro-
hibited from buying the surplus by o
tariff that forces them to pay for it
with scarce gold, instead of with the
plentiful products of their own coun-
tries. But, last week, American farmers
either refused to vote, or else cast bal
lots for congressman in favor of q high
tariff, and thereby proved that they
are even too stupid to know what is for
their own individual welfare.
