United States Senator S. NJ. Gull
lom, of Illinois, thus expresses him
self, forcibly, on the aggression of
Great Britain:
1T a plain and emphatic protest
had been made by the United States
Government, England would not
have occupied Corinto. Now that
she is there, I believe in using force
if necessary to get her out. There
are two things on which the people
of the United States have set their
hearts, and they are-the enforce
ment of the Monroe doctrine and the
building Of the Nicaragua Canal.
The Administration that gets in the
way of the people in these matters
will be put out of the way. There
are some things that we will moi
stand, long suffering as we are.
do not apprehend that England will
| go to such steps as is prophesied
yet we do not know what her inso
lent and dictatorial policy may leai
her to attempt. One thing is Ger
tain, that she must get away from
Nicaragua or there will be war be
tween the United States and Eng
land"

Growth of the Electoral College

From the Baltimore SUM-
The change in the number of Elec-
toral votes for President and Vice
President of the United States made
by the census of 1890 and by the
subsequent creation of new States
has made tho Democratic situation
much more difficult. In 1884 the
Electoral vote was 401, requiring
POI to elect. This made it possible
for the Democrats to elect by carry
ing the solid South, including Della
ware, along with New York, Con-
necticut and New Jersey; or, New
York and Indiana. The Democrats
carried all of these, getting 21O votes.
In 1892 the Electoral vote had been
increased to 444, requiring 223 to
elect. The South, including Della
WIRE, Maryland and West Virginia,
has, under the apportionment of
1890, one hundred and fifty-nine
votes. The Democrats must get all
these and "a votes from the North
and West. In 1892 they got 11e
from these sections. But that was
something which cannot be counted
on to happen often. The admission
of Utah will increase the Electoral
vote to AT: making 224 necessary to
a choice. In order to be successful,
therefore, the Democrats must carry
the South aud get IS votes in the
North and West. New York has &c
votes, New Jersey 10, Indiana Is
and Connecticut 6, making 81 in all
or 226 along with the South, or just
two more than the necessary number
