an electoral system that puts a
premium upon thrift and marriage.
Under this new plan every man
who is 81 years old and pays 81 a
year in taxes, is entitled to vote
one vote; if he is rs years old and
married, he will have two votes;
and if he owns real estate or gov
eminent bonds or savings bank
deposits producing an income of
$40 q year, he will have three
votes. Belgium is a small country,
but not slow.-Minneapolis Tri-

Roberts has been excluded from
the house by avote Of 268 to SO,
two silver republicans voting in
Roberts favor. This will be a
rebuke to the mormons that they
cannot faunt their polygamus re-
lations before the world and have
a representative in the halls of
Congress, sanctioned by represent
tatives of the people. The offense
was an unprecedented one, and
while the expulsion is unpreced-
onted, yet it is just one. There
will probably never be another
case of similar character that will
render it necessarily to refer to
the Roberts case for a precedent.

That the Scranton Junger Macnner-
chor made a decided impression on the
adjudicator and the societies of Brook
lyn and Hoboken, who had immediate
charge of the National Saengerfest,
just closed, was demonstrated yestcr-
day, when the society received as a
just reward for their high-class sing
ing a handsome loving cup, standing
about twelve inches high, having three
handles and finely engraved.
Fred Herbst member of the Brook
lyn Quartette club, thinking that the
society deserved some recognition be-
yond mere mention of mertorious
words, started movement which re-
suited in the purchase of this hand
some prize.
On one side of the cup is engraved
Prize to the Scranton Junger Maen-
nerchOr," and on the other side, FIRED
Herbst, Brooklyn Quartette Club" The
cup is a deserved recognition for ex-
cellence of instruction and singing, and
it is one of which the Maennerchol
boys can well feel proud. 1t is thell
first trophy, and is valued at $50.
