ington long enough while on his

to express the opinion that there
was a probability that the house
emergency tariff bill, passed at
the last session and held up in
the senate by the refusal of some
of the Republican silver senators
to support it unless a free coin
age amendment was attached,
might be taken up and passed at
the coming session. Senator
Quay did not enter into details
he seldom dOes-as to why he
thought the bill might be pass
ed. 1t is supposed that he
thinks, as many others do, that
the Republican silver senators,
seeing the absolute impOssibility
of securing silver legislation, will
vote for the bill which would, if
enacted into a law, provide the
government with revenue enough
to make the receipts more than
equal the expenditures. While
Mr.. Cleveland has never said that
he would sign this bill, the i'm
preston is general that he would
not veto it. So that if passed by
the senate, it is reasonably GER
tain to become Il law.
Senator Butler, the POpulist
chairman,t rather rubbed it in on
the Democrats when he issued
an address to the country put
ting all the blame for defeat on
them, and asserting that the Pop
ulists will be the principal oppOn-
ents of the Republicans in 1900.
The address has made the Dem
Ocrats hopping mad, but Butler
thinks them of so little conse-
quence now that he doesn't care.

BOERNER VS.. CASSIANO.

The official returns show that
Judge Boerner received 1896
and CassianO 1864 of the votes
east in the city precincts. Also
that their combined vote fell
! short 1,706 votes of the entire
vote cast. In Precinct9, the Al
amo, an intelligent constituency,
the deficit was 2O3; that is 203
voters failed to register their
preference. This is a remarkable
thing, and should be looked into;
it seems incredible that such a
large number of intelligent vOt-
ers should fail to vote for a cOun-
ty collector when they voted for
other officials.
Nearly two thousand register
ed voters failed to vote, and l.
zoo who voted are not counted
for the office of county collector.
There is. plenty of food for re-
Election over these facts. The
first reform needed is our ballot
box. A citizens vigilance com
mittee to watch our registration
and the ballot box on election
day would be a move in the right
direction.
