SLOPPY ELECTION CAyVAssEs.

We are fond Of calling New-York the Empire
State. IL is an honorable title justified IN many
respects. But there are other respects in which,
as a State. we still have much TO learn from
our sister commonwealths. Under democratic
rule with constant and closely contested popu-
lar elections, II would seem II the difu-
sion Of political knowledge were one Of the first
concerns OF government An electorate is en-
t1tfed TO know, and TO know promptly, the re-
suit Of a political contest The sooner such q
result Is known the greater interest it e1cites
and the wider publicity it obtains. The better
the machinery for canvassing tabulating and
declaring the result. the more intelligent Will
be the pubuc's comprehension OF the drift and
meaning OF any given election
To say that New-Yorks method Of gathering
and publishing election returns is crude and an
tiauated Is 70 understate the situation. In sloth
Texas and Iowa may be worse offenders. But
sn general sloTenliness Of practice New-York
Yields 10 no other State IN the UniOn-not even
TO the most sparsely settled OF sagebrush and
elkah desert commemorative.
General elections are held in most States on
the first Tuesday after the first Monday in No
vember. In stagecoach days it may have taken
four or Eve weeks 10 collect and canvass a
States vote With modern election machinery
Il ought not TO take more than two weeks to
determine and announce the result. In Penn
sylFania and Ohio due expedition has been OBJ
fained. Both these States are ready before the
end OF November TO spread broadcast their
election canvasses. Printed fluctuations are fur
nished TO any applicant, and the newspapers
OF Pennsylvania and Ohio take pains TO fur
nish the public with 4 full and exact state
ment OF the vote cast and counted.
How different is the process herel The State
Board OF Canvassers Facets at Albany ''on or
before the 10Th OF December" Usually the day
Of meeting Is December IL or December L.
Nearly six weeks have elapsed since election.
The vote by counties is canvassed, and some
belated totals are given out. A few newspapers
may summarize them. But no means are taken
TO spread any accurate or detailed knowledge
Of the returns canyassed. For any Sd satisfactory
study OF the figures the inquirer must depend
on personal access TO the records in the Office
Of the Secretary OF State. We doubt IL out
side the columns Of a publication like The
Tribune Almanac one-hundredth Of / per cent
Of the voters OF Aew-York ever see measure
bly, complete return IN any election of the vote
OF New-York State.
In this city the habit Of burying election re-
turns is even more pronounced and inveterate
Though the smallest county up the State has
the industry and public spirit 10 print and dis
tribute its own canvass for county officers, the
counties which constitute the city Of New-Yor
show 40 inclination 10 furnish anything like
en- adequate or public record Of the local cleo
ton return. II citizen of Kings County has a

4 HOTTENTOT WAR.

The Hottentot revolt of some weeks ago in
Great Namaquaand continues, and is assum-
ing formidable proportions, so that the send
ing Of q considerable German army to that
region may be necessary. The trouble be-
gan in November, with Hottentot attack
upon the custom house at Uhabis just north of
the Orange River and on the main road from
Cape Colony into German Southwest Africa In
that affair two German soldiers were killed.
Later the Hottentots defeated a detachment Of
German troops and drove them across the river
into Cape Colony Indeed, they followed the
Germans across the river and pursued them
across Kenhardt County, Cape Colony, as far
as the Hartebeeste River, where they were
checked by the Cape police. Now the trouble
has extended northward as far as the Karas
Mountains which have been made the strong
hold of the rebels, and from which it will prob-
ably be trying task to dislodge them
Although the tide of war is apparently turn
ing away from the British frontier, the Cape
government has thought the situation grave
enough to call for the issuing OF orders as to
the treatment Of fugitives and others at the
frontier. All fugitives will be freely received

thirteen birds were bagged on the rise.
Col. Niche shot five times, getting a
