The people of Michigan are to elect to-day two Justices of the Supreme Court of the State and two Tegents of the State University, and vote upon two proposed amendments to their State constitution, one of which prohibits the sale of intoxicating liquors, and the other fixes thesalaries of the State officers, A Detroit dispatch tothe New York Zimes ‘says: There are four full tickets in the field, re- publican, democratic, greenback and labor-fusion, and prohibition. A plurality elects, Under these circumstances there seems little reason to doubt that the republican candidates will be elected, al- though it will be possible to single out and slip one candidate on all sides, so as to endanger his success if not actually to defeat him. But there are so many diverse interests, jealousies: and political and individual revenges mixed up in. the contest and engaged in adjusting their varie. gated accounts that a general understanding and combination of this sort 1s scarcely possible, It 18 surmised that the two partners in the fusion busi- ness of the past six years, the democrats and SS ‘will take particular pains to reach each other's back hair. But all mere political issues have been quite overshadowed by the pen- dency of the amendment to the State constitution epee sale of liquor in any form. A very vigorous comprehensive campa has been carried on by the) hipitionists. coe ‘The people of Rhode Island are to elect on Wed- nesday next their tull State ticket and legislature, and vote upon a proposed amendment to the con: stitution of their St which provides that “wo men shall have the right to vote in the election of all civil officers and on all questions in all legal town, district, or ward meetings, subject to the same qualifications, limitations, and conditions as men.” For State officers there are three full tick- ets in the the republicans having named the resent incumbents, with the Hon. Geo. Peabody retmore for governor, azmd the democrats havin nominated Jno. W, Davis for that position, ‘and the prohibttionists Thos. H. Peabody. The can- vass has been animated in the past ten days, tne opposition of a large numberof republicans to the State ticket being outspoken and determined. The vote for governor last April was: republicans, 4,340; democrats, <3 prohibitiontst, 2,585. Rooeae eee i tornt seed on” Tuexiay, pril 12, upon three pro) amendments 16 their State constitution. One of these increases: the salaries of the justices ofthe Supreme Court. of the State and of the superior judges and court commissioners in several counties of the State; ‘the second continues in office Uke present justices of the Supreme Court forthe terms for which they were elected, and provides that hereafter the justices shall elect one of their number as chief-justice for a termn of two years, instead of having that position filled by the direct. vole of the people as now. The third amendment ex- tends to cities of over 10,000 inhabitants the right to elect 15 Freeholders to make char- ters for them, and specifies the authority by whieh charters similary framed for clues of the first-class—that is, of 100,000 in- habitants or over—may be subuitted. speaking of the second amendment the San Francisco Bui- detin says: “The governor is especially authorized to appoint a justice for the =. term of the late chief Justice.

A telegram to the New York Times from Cincin- Rati says that the municipal election which ts to occur to-day is exciting profound interest among allclasses, “The unexpected sirength of the labor movement renders the result not only uncertain ‘but gives to it importance as indicating the party supremacy of the future.

The reports of persons who have made a canvass in scattered precints difer so widely that mo Judgment can be formed from them, Ail that can be said with any degree of certainty is that the democrats will ex- perience the largest losses in the Irish wards, and ‘the republicans in the German wards. Unfortu- nately for the republicans, the German population 1s much larger than the Irish. The disadvantage Jo the republicans on this account #s met in whole or in part as the result may show by the fact that the republicans have a marin of 3,000 majority to overcome. It has been the policy of Une demno- crats Lo encourage the labor movement and of the republicans to discourage and itinit it. ‘The labor leaders affect to spurn democratic assistance.
