places should be kept clear of all except
the precinct officers, and a desk or table
should be provided for the marking Of bal
lots. As for bribery, no man will under
take to bride voters at primaries all over
the city. The difficulty in the past has
been that men outside of the precinct bave
voted and repeated. This can be prevented
If the precinct officers do their duty. The
primary law is not what the Journal would
have had, but if the mass of Republican
voters VIII so to the primaries and vote
a ticket will be fairly nominated.

Rottenness is Rampant.

The administration practically says to Congress, Pass the subsidy bill; if you do not, will call an extra session to discuss and determine the Cuban problem" This is the situation in a nutshell, and there is no reason for doubting the Presidents willingness, and even desire, to carry out the pro- gramme.
 The party is flushed with success; it is under large obligations to campaign subscribers; it has made many prom ises to them, and it is trying to fulfill them at an early day in order that there may be more time before cleo tion for forgetfulness in the minds of voters. Unless the Senate passes the subsidy steal, it may be set down as convened.
 The entire course of the Republi- cans ln WaSn1ngtOn goes to snow that they no longer fear the people or the opposition. They are reckless beyond all precedent. They squander the peo- ple's money with one hand, and stuff privileges and franchises in the pock- cts of favorites and supporters with the other. The corruptions of the Grant administration after the civil war did not approach the saturnalia that is supreme in Washington now. Nothing that injuriously affects the trusts is permitted to go through, and the trusts are plundering the country without remorse and without shame.

Colonel Wiley's landmark schools are too indistinct, too poorly located and defined. He should locate at least one of them.
 There is one thing that cannot be gainsaid, namely, Colonel Wiley's old landmarks did not keep down illitera- ey in Alabama, as the brave and elo quent Senator will soon hear from the census office, much no doubt to his dis gust and disquietude.
