CHANGE OF VENUE

The Court of Inquiry, which has
been 70 busiIy engaged in the investi
ga, ION o the embalmed beef contro,
vecsy, has adjourned its sessions in
Wa HI ngton and has concluded to
visit the packing house in Chicago
where, hey think, no doubt, that a
better flavor may be impaired on the
beef question, and possibly to the rec
ord OF their own proceedings.
BY what POSSIBLE method of com
parison it expects to discriminate be-
tween the freshly slaughtered beef
that will be shown them there, and
that which was served to the army in
Cuba; so that General Miles may be
convicted of bringing false charges
against the Department., does not be-
come apparent to the average mind
But the department needs good coat
of whitewash, and probably Chicago
with its reputation for accomplishing
any difficult task, may be able to fur
nish this.

A NEW TEST.

A new and somewhat remarkable
test is being applied in the metropolis
of the West, which promises, if it full
fills it's mission, to revolutionize all of
the systems of education now in vogue.
F. w. smedley, OF the University of
Chicago and Victor G. Campbell, a
child specialist, began experimenting
in the public schools of Chicago on
Tuesday with an instrument called
the ergograph, which it is claimed,
will measure a child's capacity to
study ard withstand fatigue. Twen-
ty-tiye pupils were ex mined and a
wide variance was found. No report
will be made until tests are finished.
If the tests rove successful and the
system is adopted in the public echool
it will abolish the present system of
grading the scholars, and may ulti'
mately lead to teaching each child

GONE TO GRIEF.

A dispatch from Cambridge, Md,
dated on Wednesday, says: About
ten days ago the postmaster at this
place received a letter from Washing,
ton advising that q colored man was
working pension fraud ON the colored
people of the peninsula. The matter
was traced and it proved to be the
famous O. e. Wellington Bryant, the
Republican exChief of the Baltimore
Street Department,

was the creation of emotional orators
and sensational newspapers; the other
was an aggregation Of wandering
bands, whose main object seems to
have been to avoid fighting. Since
the United States conquered Spain,
however, the number of patriots in
arms has increased fivefolu, and gen
erals and colonies who were never
heard of before have come in legions
to Havana to reap the reward of their
patriotism. It's an amusing situation
but it may yet give the administra-
ton trouble Baltimore Sun.

FOB LARGER REPRESENTATION
IN THE PRIMARlES.

Hartford county is just entering upon
another campaign, in which is invoi-
we'd the election ui several important
officers. 1t therefore bel"oveI rs to
look we'll as to what will secure us the
strongest possible ticket to put before
the people in November, one that will
inspire confidence, and impress every
one with the fairness of its construc-
ton, and comes the nearest to meet
ing the united view of the Democrats
of the county.
At present, under the rules of the
County Executive Committee we have
what is known as the Convention
SYSTEM" which means a delegation
of ten men from each district, sixty in
all, to meet in convention and noml-
nate a ticket. This system was tried
for the first time at the last county
election, since 1869. Some disaffectlon
was expressed, as was natural to be
expected. The claim was, that the
people did not get a chance to express
their full views. Whether this claim
was right or wrong it is not within
the province of this article to discuss.
What our aim is, if possible, is to sug
gest some means which will in a
measure, remove this discomfort.
We, who are Democrats, as the
name implies, naturally have the good
of the people at heart and believe
that our party will come the nearest
to giving the best government to the
greatest number, and it should be oul
aim therefore, to come the closest tc
the wishes of the greatest number
How can this be done? A suggestion
has been made that we increase the
number of delegates equally from
each district, of course preserving the
same ratio as at present, and there
are many things to be urged in it:
favor. The larger the convention, the
more opportunity is given for the PEG
pie to express their views. AS it ii
now, ten delegates cannot as fully
rep resent the peoples wishes as 4
larger number could. Another thing
there could be less charge of alleged
bossism, as the larger the body, the
more difficult the combination anG
every delegate would feel more free
to cast his vote as his constituents de
sire.
This is only hint thrown out sc
that the people can have chance tc
discuss the matter more thoroughly
We do not say it is the best, but
would be glad to hear from Democrats
throughout the county, as to theil
views in regard to the matter. Any
letter on this subject will be gladly
published.
