State Election'.
Though the present is an "off
year" in politics, yet sufficient
political events will occur before
its close to .give it . considerable
proipiqencoin the eyes .of politi
cians? There will be twpnty-three
state elections this year. The
first to lead off is Rhode Island
where a -governor, state officers,
and a legislature will bo elected
next month. Oregon conies next;
the candidates will bo before the
people to-day, on both sides, and
the state is.so evenly divided that
but slight defection from cither
side would threaten defeat. Ken
tucky, Tennessee and Alabama
elect hi August. The enterpris
ing Tcnnessccans nominated their
candidates last February, and arc
hiving a sis months'-campaign.
In September Maino holds n
general election. It used to be
"as goes Maine so goes the Union."
'The proverb is now like a last
year's almanac. Iowa and Ohio
elect in October, as also Colorado
and Vcst Virginia. In Novem
ber comes the gubernatorial elec
tion. New York, Pennsylvania,
Michigan, Nebraska, Texas, South
Carolina, Now Hampshire, Ne
vada, .Massachusetts, Kansas, Con
necticut, and Delaware. Illinois
fleets a legislature the rap
month. The. result of the elec
tions in two-thirds of the Union
will go far toward determining the
relative strength of the great
parties in "81.

Tue President's veto of the
Chinese emigration bill i- well re
ceived except among the Pacific
coast Republicans, who think they
. .are ruined by it. .Gen. Roocrans
and the other Democrats from that
section" Vrlievo" that "their party
will reap a great advantage, but
that is by no means assured if the
Democrats in Congress refuse to
support n - bill with' a ten esrs
limit. Among the Republicans
the belief is strong that the coun
try will sustain the President's
, view of the cabp, and even ionic
Democrats characterize thn veto as
" a pharp move. Said Senator
. Masey: "Arthur playa his hand
and never get-, excited. I like to
see a man play out his hard."
Said n prominent Republican
Senater: ''You may depend upon
it, the country will endorse the
veto. The message ii a fair,
straightforwaid statement of the
question, without extravagance,
nnd will go'a long way to relievo
the , apprehensions that many
thoughtful people have felt at the
passage of so extreme a measure.
It looked as though the time
might como soon when race pre
judice might be strong enough to
push through any legislation.
The Republican party has always
claimed to act according to certain
principles ol right and honesty
between man and man, regardless
of race or color. If wo are now
to permit a law to bo enacted
without protest, simply ' because
wo can, in obedience to the hatred
of ono raco for another, we
stultify tho foundation principles
on which wo have stood from tho
beginning. This bill is a bad pre
;. cjljej to pctand our foreigners,
"of" oil classes, should reflect a
long time boforo they damand the
prohibition of Chinese emigration,
for policy alone, if not on princi
ple." ,,TJ?0r -long-expected Cabinet
nominations nenf made this wook,
;. togcthor with several other rather
important appointments. Tho
nomination of Secretary Hunt for
minister to' Russia is not, it is
understood, very acceptable to him,
. but,bo will take the place in lieu"
. of something better. He pre
ferred to stay where he is and next
to'bavc some good thing here, but
thepresident thought ho aught to
alii
UMj
be satisfied to take what he could
get. The difficulty of providing
for him has delayed tho sending
in of tho nominations. Mr. Lincoln
is now the only one of President
Gai field's cabinet left, and it
is generally understood that he is
to remain. Tho nomination of Mr. 1
Chandlor as Secretary of tho I
Navy was referred to tho Com-j
raittee on Naval Affairs, of which j
Don Cameron is chairman, andjiyi j Youth' and Rnuu;
througl! whoso' efforts Mr. Chan-i lienS' T0UlflS MC b0
dler, when nominated last spring,
by President Garfield forSolici- -,. . .'
tor General, was rejected. Butj I ) i nTin 11 01
Don was not disposed to make any vlV UJUULJUL
particular euort against Mr. Chan
dler esDeciallv now. as it wnuld
'. ,. ... '
uiuagonize mm wun tno Auminis
tration. His opposition last spring
was mainly to oblige his brother-in-law,
"Wayne McVeagh, then
Attorney-General. There has been
considerable opposition to Chan-'
dlor'a confirmation for this posi-
tion, but the Democrats wero not
solidly against him as before, i
though most of them entertain a
strong dislike to him politically.
It has been rumored here for some
time that Mr. Chandler and Mr.
Blaine, who were for a long time
the warmest of friends, had fallen
out, but thoso who saw Mr. Chand
ler enter Mr. Blaine's house about
dark on the day his nomination
was sent in think there must bo
some mistake about the rumors.
Mr. Chandler i3 a very shrewd
politician, and he will work the
navy department for all it is worth
for ills party.
Tho Senate recently passed a
resolution to pay Mr. Ingalls $8,-
193 for alleged expenses incurred I
by him in refuting tho charges of
bribery of members of the Kansas
Legislature to secure his election
to the Senate. This is following
the inexcusable precedent recently
set bv tho Senate in allowing tho
alleged expenses of Mr. Butler, of
South Carolina, and Mr. Kalloirg,
of Louisiana, in defending their
right to tho Seats occupied by them.
Tho Senate of tho United States !
has long been known as the most
expensive legislative body in tho
world, and manv of its items of
expenditure are gross and outra
geous frauds upon the public treas
ury. It lias in its emplo5' throo
times as many clerks as are neces
sary for the proper dispatch of
public business, and the principal
occupation of many of its mem
bers seems to bo tho doviiiii": of
means and methods to increase
their own comfort and convenience
ami add to their own emoluments
at tho epen! of tho pople.
Useless committees are constantly
being created, for the avowed
purposo of giving some Senator
a room for hii piivato use, and a
clerk to transact his private busi
ness, and to bn paid out of tho
treasury. There is not a Senator
3tid there is not n clerk of tho Sen
ate who does not know perfectly
well that tho expenses of that
body are twice of three times as
much as they ought to be, and et
expenses are piled np year by-
year with a coolness and indiffer
ence to public opinion which is re
freshing. For ten years the House
of Representatives, whose expenses
are ever so much less in propor
tion, has undertaken in tho appro
priation bill to cut down the inor
dinate and excessive expenses of
the bnnate, but in vain. This
mow raid is about tho most inex
cusable of all, and nobody can
toll where it will end, for as Sena
tors are simply no moro and no
loss than nvorago politicians, $8,-
000 in a lump is enough to tempt
many ot them up to jobs to have
thoir scats contested. SroT.
