The Returns.

Washington received its news of the cleo
IONS last night in a calm and judicial spirit
IL displayed comparatively little emotion
interest was centered in the results in New
York Maryland and Ohio. The New York
situation went so early from doubt to GER
tainty that by 7:30 clock practically all
the people who stood before The Stars
bulletin screens felt assured of McClellan's
election. Thereafter the chief interest in
Gotham lay In the size of the Tammany
majority, and even that was soon dis
counted by the steady showing of the per-
centages that it would range between 60, 900
and 10000. Ohio was a foregone conclu-
sion. and there, too, the interest was main
, ly centered in the majority secured by
Herrick and the margin of Senator Hanna s
safety in the legislature. BY 9 o'clock
there was no question whatever as to the
substantial character of both phases of the
republican victory in the buckeye state.
But Maryland was puzzle throughout the
night. During the early hours no word
could be had from the state A few meager
and unsatisfactory dispatches. throwing a
feeble light on the situation, aroused the
latent enthusiasm of the crowd and indi-
Gated that there would be show of gen.
uine election-night excitement If Maryland
would only hurry up the count. Between
8 and IL o'clock the crowd was entertained
by the scattering returns from Massachu-
sets. New Jersey, Rhode Island, Penn
sylvania. Nebraska, Colorado, Iowa, Ken
lucky and other points of more or less re-
mote interest. But still Maryland remain
ed the mystery of the night. Cheering by
admirers of public men whose portraits
We're displayed awakened the echoes now
and then, and the cartoons illustrative of
the days events aroused the laughter of
the crowd. The motion pictures, which
Were shown frequently, proved a most sat
isfactory diversion while the Maryland cleo
ton officers We're struggling with the bal
lots. BY half-past IL most of the crowd
had decided that bed was the best place,
after all, and by midnight the space in
front of The Star office. which an hour
earlier had been packed from curb TO curb,
was only sparsely occupied. Half an hour
later the hope of securing the Maryland
result was abandoned. and good night
was flashed on the screen.

Duty Done.

Election day is over an we're feelin' pretty
good.
We reckon that this world will now perceed
bout as 1t should.
The candidates have spoke with sech I'M
failin' eloquence
That the township will seem silent when
the real deeds commence.
But earth will be a paradise when they
have gotten through
With all the splendid things they've been
a-promisin' to do.
It's mighty handy scheme with which
our COVER nent is blessed
You simply put the votes in an them fellers
. do the rest.
I'll go to sleep tonight an know I needn't
fret bit;
Cause notice has been served that all an
noyances must quit.
There won't be nothin' wasted from the
taxes that we pay.
Well have reforms, but not too much at
once; that's what they say.
Reform is somethin' that you've got to
keep awatchin' close;
It's always well to have some one to regu-
late the dose.
We've listened to the speeches jes as
faithful could,
But election day is over, an we're feelin'
purity good.

'snatural-born citizen Some have averred
that 1t means only those born on the actual
soil of the country. Others have argued
that It includes those born Of American
parents abroad in an official capacity, un-
der the flag covering extra-territorial
sovereignty of the United States. Still
others have urged a more liberal construc-
ton, to include all those born abroad OF
American parents. Only through this most
inclusive Interpretation of the case could
Mr. Mcclellan be regarded as eligible His
is just the same case as that of the late
Speaker Crisp, who was born in Sheffield
England, while his parents. who were
Americans, were visiting abroad Mr..
Crisp's claims to eligibility were advanced
by his friends. but never pressed. for he
was geographically an impossibility.
The mere possibility of ineligibility Gre
ates a dilemma for those who see in Nc
Clellan available national material. This
question can be settled only by the United
States Supreme Court, which never passes
upon moot points. Il demands the actual
case. No case involving this issue could
be presented unless party was willing to
nominate a man who might later be de-
clared incapable Of holding the Office That
is a heavy risk to run, especially when
presidential timber still stands thick in the
political forest

The election of George B. Mcclellan as
mayor of Greater New York by a rousing
big majority has given the constitutional
lawyers a nut to crack. Is he eligible for
the presidency? This question is suggested
by the proposition which last nights news
Immediately advanced to public notice that
his victory in the big city had put him in
line for the highest Office. There would be
no technical difficulty about the matter
whatever were it not for the fact that Mr..
Mcclellan was not born in the United
States. AS he rather proudly stated the
other night, in the course of a speech to
meeting of German-Americans, he first saw
the light of day in Dresden. Under some
circumstances this fact might not initiate
against his eligibility. Had his father been
in Dresden in an official capacity as
diplomatic officer of this government the
son would have been for all legal purposes
a citizen of this country by birth But Mr..
Mcclellan in the course of his biography,
as printed in the Congressional Directory
thus practically his official personal his
tory-describes his start In life in this way:
George Brinton Mcclellan was born No
vember %, 1865. in Dresden, Saxony, where
bis parents had gone on visit
There is no mention of a-territoriality
No hint is given that the stars and stripes
fioated over the infantile head in Its solemn
capacity as sign that beneath it was the
soil of the American republic. All biogra-
phies of Gen. Mcclellan tell of his de-
parture for Europe on a tour or visit i'm
mediately after his defeat for the prest-
dency in 1854 He remained there until
1868
The Constitution declares:
mo person except a natural-born citizen,
or citizen of the United States at the time
of the adoption of this Constitution, shall
be eligible to the Office of President, ETC."
In the discussion of this clause of the
Constitution In Congress various opinions

Politics and Crowded Galleries.

Andrew d. White, ex-ambassador to Ger
many. gives an account in the current Cen
fury Magazine of a conversation he had
with Prince Bismarck at the latter's table
on the subject of legislative assemblies and
the ACCESSIBILITY of having them meet not In
great cities, but in small places. Says Mr.
White:
Bismarck insisted that the curse of
Feench assemblies had been the tyranny Of
} city mobs. and especially of mobs in the
galleries of their assemblies that the worst
fault possible in any deliberative body is
speaking to the galleries: that a gallery
mob is sure to get between the members
and the country and virtually screen off
from the assembly the interests of the coun-
try. To this i most heartily assented. 1
may say here that there had not then been
fully developed in our country that mon
strous absurdity which we have seen in
these last few years-national conventions

tie midst OF audiences Of twelve or fifteen

and had an audieLce with him as to
the mitigation Of the quarantine pro
