tho prnyor Save mo from my friend
dhould bo made to embrace tho children
ol thoso friends TIo la much chagrined
at the vlnvrs I men and things which
Jilan Ilatvthprne has pntlnto his mouth
a I Intimates that tho lntorvlower has
broken down the partition between bis
memory and Imagination when ho gives
Lowells crltlclim of writings of which bo
has never read a line That a frlondly
Interchange of vlowssiouldbo tortured
Into an Interview far publication Is cer
tainly a gross breach of all that true
friendship holds Inviolate
Tannic seems to bo little douot that
lrlnco Watdemar of Denmark will bo
elected to tho vacant throne Of Bulgaria
Thero Is a fixed determination on tho
part of tho Kdropcan powers that Rus
sian Influence shall not preponderate M
KaravcloS tho proRussian member of
the regency has boen asked to resign
There is a shrewd suspicion that the
mothers hand moves tho springs in this
Bulgarian business Queen Louisa of
Denmark Is known to bo ambitious and
tho has forwarded her schomes so sue
cessfully that one dauthcr is czarina of
Russia another 1rlncess of Wales her
oldest son wields the scepter of Greece
and now with Waldermar who has re
contly married a princess ot the
houso of Orleans on this side ot
Turkey sho will feel that her children
aro well placed Whorever they have
boon thoy havo shown their capabilities
no doubt Inherited from their mother as
tliu old king is said to bo easygoing aud
stupid and should this youngest son as
cend tho throne now waiting an occu
pant thero Is ovory reason to btlltvo ho
will bo as reliable as his brother George
of Greece has proved
THE TEXAS ELECTION LAW
Kvory town In Texas oven to tho little
hamlots and vtl ages has tolegiophlc fa
cilities and the eager newspapers uo not
spare mouoy or effort to get nows But
for all this it will be scvoial diys yet be
fore tho public will got tho dotalls of tho
voto cast In this State yesterday Of
course wo know tnat the Democratlo state
ticket and perhaps all ot the Democratic
congressional nomluoes aro alccted but
that was u foregone conclusion nnd tho
knowlcdgo of today Is based on that
forcgono conclusion rather than any ac
tual nuws received Thoro aro local con
tests such as tho result lu the Fifth and
Ninth congressional districts unci In sev
eral Judicial and lcglelatlvo districts
where tho result Is puioly conjectural
It may bo two or threo days yet before
satisfactory figures aro received This Is
duo to tho Toxas election law which has
aomo antiquated nud cumber
some features For examplo tho
iolls closo at six oclock in
tho evening and tho count which Is then
commenced Is continued uninterruptedly
until concluded Kvon whero tlie voto Is
light this count necessarily lasts until
late Into tho night for tho gcnoral ticket
votod on yesterday was n very long one
and tho limited number of judges and
clerks allotted by tho law will not permit
tho count to bo disposed of in a reason
ably sliort tlmo Where tho voto Is heavy
as in tho populous wards of tho larger
cities and tho county towns tho count Is
an nil night matter and results oinnot bo
mado up In tliro for telegraphic transmis
sion to tho morning papers An Inspec
tion of tho dispatches general and state
published In Tiik Gazixtr this morn
Ing will show thnt as a rule
the results In tho Kastorn states aro more
clearly shown than In our Toxas towns
and districts This Is duo to t > o dlfter
onco In tho oloctlpn laws of the states
In most of ths Kastorn states thero aro
two sots of judges aud clerks ono tor re
ceiving and tho other tor counting votes
When tho polling has been under way an
hour or two tho counting judges com
mence their work There aro two boxes
for ballots and as tho voto goes on it is
counted but in uqothor room than the
one whore tho polling takes place When
tho counters havu emptied ono box they
return It to tho receiving judges and take
the other Tho result Is tint wheu the
polls close In tho evening tho counters
aro only two or threo hours behind
tho receivers and by 0 1Q or U
oclock at tho outside tho voto is all
counted and tho actual result kuawu
Thosystom Is simple does notprosont
any opportunity for fraud and has given
satisfaction wherever Introduced If wo
hadsuoh a Bystcm in Texas ThkGazrttk
with lti coips of special correspondents
all over tho state cagor and alort to got
tho results could havo presented this
morning tho voto of ovory county In tho
state Many ot theso gontlemon were at
their posts until long after midnight last
night and numerous dispatches re
celved
as lato as two and oven
threo oclock tills mowing concludod with
thq words count not completed
yot
Tho next legislature can remedy tho olec
Hon law iu this respect and do away with
tho allnight count and not keep tho
l > lo watting so long to lcaru details
When Gen Ross was ajnomber of tbo
state senate ho perceived tho cumbersome
nature of our olcctiou law and mado an
effort to eccuro a relalou In tho dlrec
tlon above Indicated
mossback com
mltteu got hold of tho bill however and
smothered it in tho commltteeroom
Thoy wero probably men who were opposed
on principle to anything that looked like an
or progress Let tis hope
the nest legislature shall show a
disposition to do away with tho defects
the Ln governor will lend < bls Influence
to bring abont tho ctanges that arc ex

FOIi CAUSE
Politicians ot both parties find a meaty
subject of scnsslon In the recent re
moval fro i ofllco by order of the presi
dent of two olllccrs of tho government
Both wore United States attorneys one
for tho Western district of Missouri and
tho other for tho Western district of lcnn
sylvanla The first Is a Pcmocrat tho
latter a Republican Both are charged
with offensive partisanship the nowj
political sin that has come along
with mugwumpcry and tho present
administration Tho sinners wero
warned of the wrath to come bnl
they didnt llco It thoy had read
tho presidential order forbidding olUclals
to take too much stock In politics but
they took stock nevertheless They
didnt beljcvo tbo presidential gun was
loaded but havo found to their sorrow
that It was In their speeches for tho
pair of unfortunates woro foolish enough
to take to tho otump to air their
views concerning political Issues
and candidates both ridiculed civil
service reform and they made such
a noise that their clamor reached the
Whlto House Thoy must go for cause
said tho president and they havo gono
It Is a fair standoff ono a Republican
and the other a Democrat and tho mug
wumps aro smiling and rubbing their
hands over it Next to getting anolllco
or himself thero Isnt anything that
will make a mugwump so happy as to see
an offensfvo partisan from either par
ty bounced out ot ofllce But partisans
whether Democrats or Republicans and
a thorough going Doraocrat or Republican
Is always a partisan aro not as Jubilant
over theso dismissals as tho mugwumps
arc It Is a now wrinkle altogether in
politics and tho old stagers are not fa
miliar with It Of course there Is noth
ing for tho presont at least to do but
grin and bear it but it is to be hoped tho
presfdent will lead the way of re
form slowly and kindly and let
tho country fall Into it by de
grees OlUceboIdcrs aro begin
ning to havo a realization of what is ex
pected of them but tho president must
not expect too much at tho start Ho will
remomber let us trust that tho customs
nnd precedents and traditions of years
cannot bo broken up In a day cr even a
year Tho average Domocrat or Repub
lican has been trained to believe It bis
duty to put In his best licks for his party
on any aud all occasions
