Its consideration and determination call for the exercise of the highest wisdom and most patri- otic impulses of our national lezislators. The issue involved is different from the one presented at the time of the reconstruction acta Then the idea of the framers of the laws was to clothe a new element just emancipated with the ability to protect themselves at the ballot box and there secure to themselves the results of emancipation. The party responsi- ble for these acts had also in view the political advantage which the accession of such a large number of voters would give to it. Inthe pro- posed legislation the leading object an- wounced by the authors of the measure is to secure to the colored voters of the southern states the rights of suffrage, at least in federal elections, once accorded to them and guaranteed to them perpetually in the Constitution, Other purposes, such as the honest casting and counting of the vote in federal elections in all parts of the republic, enter inte the plan which is elaborately drawn in the Lodge bill reported in the House of Representatives. On the purity and free- dom of elections hang the destinies of free and intelligent _nations. ‘That elections in this country are a perfect and un- trammeled expression of the people's will, can- not be affirmed, And this can be truthfully said without giving offense to candid and open- minded partisans of either side. It may be said further that the reform spirit has been needed at every step in the history of the United States. Corruption, fraud, force and violence have entered into very many of our elections, both municipal and national, The election bill would deserve extremely careful consideration if it only aimed to improve the character of the republic's elections generally, bat the bearing which it has upon the race question in the south. as the proposed solution ofa probiem which bristles with political and social difficulties, immeasurably increases its importance and the need of care in handling it, —— The Post intimates that a spirit of revenge against the Baltimore and Potomac railroad, based ov “favors refused.” influences Tue Svan to oppose the Atkinson bill, and to con- tend that the road should reduce the killing and mangling of citizens and the obstruction of travel at its grade crossings, and abandon or render less objectionable its oceupation of the mali, There is notruth in the insinuation. ‘Te Stan has no personal feeling against the read, and is not aware of any reason whatever why it should yearn for revenge. To give voice to the sentiments of ninety-nine one-hun- dredths of the people of the District, to in- crease the beauty and healthfulness of the city, to protect public property from private use, te remove an obstruction from travel and trafic, and to save life and limb at grade crossings have been its sole purposes in this controversy. If ithed taken the opposite course and had betrayed the pub- lie interest for the fiuancial benefit of a law- breaking corporation. suspicion concerning its motives might reasonably have been indalged. ‘Tae Stan asks for an explicit statement of the alleged “favors” which have been asked and “refused.” If it has really received, “all un- beknownst to itself,’ some bad treatment from the road which calls for revenge, it has an interest in learning the fact at the earliest possible moment, > + This world is full of hopefuls, despite the numerous suicides. Here is Mr. Campbell, of airship fame, who is preparing to fly over Niagara Falls just above the water in a ma- chine that is «a combination of balloon and electric artificial bird. There is just gus enough to tloat the balloon part a few feet and asmall electric battery propels the wings and sundry propellers. Mr. Campbell says he pro- poses to make the trip two weeks from next Wednesday, and after a trial trip. Mr. Camp- bell, if serious in this matter, would do well to make several tro! trips and then decide that the machine requires further improvements. It would also be wise to change the place of the final test of his machine. The public will not insist that he drown himaclf as the penalty of a flaw in his calculations. a The comparatively small increase in gov- ernment expenditure cansed by efforts to es- tablish better commercial relations with Latin America is money well expended. The val wable trade of that vast region, prolific in natural products desired by our manufacturers aud the field we find there for our own prod- nets, should long ago have shaped legislation that would have made our footing secure in that quarter. But action now—resolute, con- tinned, enlarged action—is likely soon to atone in some measure for former shortcominga — + — The summer campaign has been opened along the life line. A man was drowned in the surf at Cape May yesterday. Senator Sherman and Governor Fitz Lee are horseback riding at Natural Bridge, which may account for the peculiar changes of weather we are experiencing. ————____ Party organs have disputed whether or not any considerable changes were made by the fiuanee committee of the Senate in the tariff bill of the ways and means committee of the House, If numbers of amendments are to be taken into consideration the statement of the former committee ought to conclude the mat- ter. There were just three hundred changes made. Some of these were radical. = oa = Guiana as well as Molokai has its leper martyr-hero. Rey.

Suilivan against the slight putupon him by the Columbis Athletic Club of Washington, though Mr. Sullivan has been of Brest value to the Boston press as a newsmaker. — + Secretary Blaine is willing to scratch the back of South America, but he does mot want it forgotten that North America has also a spinal column. $s << The silver discussion has the effect of de- partyizing parties. s —— ‘The captains of Lritieh seuling vessels in Behring Sea say they will catch seals where they please and will fight before they will be captured.
