The proposed merger of tlie United Pine line In tlie National Transit com pany, which I simply n transfer by the 8taudard oil company from one. pocket te another, excites nttenllen because It is wondered what the Standard Is driving at In the apparently objectless transfer : and several probable theories are advanced te account Ter the per ferraance, which Is understood by com mon consent te point at a steal of some kind. One explanation is that the United Plpe lines have never declared a dividend jet, because it would have carried n heavy dividend tax te the state and that new ti tnumfer of the whole concern as It stands te the Nntleiml Transit, which Is said te be a foreign corporation, will enable the spoils of the United l'ipe lints te be carried out of thostnte for division. That would be 11 very pretty scheme and would account for the nigger in the weed pile, if the facts nre as stated. Then, again, it is said that the Standard people are looking ahead te a time in the near fu ture when the Pennsylvania oil fluids will become exhausted and their pipe lines be without oil te carry and, there fore, valueless. Contemplating this con tingency, they think it prudent te tnke out a portion, at least, of their stakes , and they have thurefore determined te water their pipe line stock, which new pays fifty te a hundred per cent., se that It will still pay ten per cent, for a while, and be suflleientlv attractive te secure buyers. In ether words, the Slandaid proposes te sell a nearly dry orauge before Its skin becomes se visibly ' shrunken as te betray its condition te the deluded purchaser. That explanation will de, tee, if the facts he as stated. Meanwhile, let it be noted that all the explanations offered nre unanluieu.s in their ascriptions of the Standard as a band of thleves. m m A Free hliew. There has been a free circus for some days at the court house, which has bten greatly enjoyed bv a crowded house, at t meted by the novelty of se amusing and amazing a performance f uruishtd "free, gratis, for nothing." People may be surprised te hear that the occasion is a simple common pleas trial of a lire in surance case, in which the clowns are some of the lawyers and the judge is tlie ring master. Ge and eee It if you want te knew hew completely a court of jus tice may be turned iute a circus ring. We decline te descrihe the scene or note the performances of the actors. The tale would net b.i believe I if the sight was net seen. It would net be thought possible that such license would be accorded by any judge, or be dum ind ed by any attorney. The lawyers who indulge in such conduct disgrace their profession and their manhood by their performances as much as thu judge hu miliates lil3 ermine by permitting them. These are rough words ; hut their roughness is in their truth. Law vers who cannot be geutlemeu ami sen sible men before the bar, need te be pub licly told that their friends, ucn.u,iint ancesand fellow citizens are distrusted with their rude and silly antics. Political book keepcrs, who are en gaged in striking balances these days, generally iwne upon the following fore cast of probabilities as te the next u!ec teral vote of the several states named : Aliibuma. lOiColeruclo 3 Arkansas 7 Connecticut. rt Delaware 3 IlltnnlJ 11 nerl.lu 4 Iowa 13 Ueerglu 13 nun MS , y Matnu fl MBSiHChllJUttS II Mlcniirau 1:1 hontueky 13 Louisiana 8 Mnrtlaml 8 JV.MSUNiipl ....

Vmmeni Wisconsin .... Telul 15j Total 133 TniB leaves as doubtful stites-Cull-feruia, with 8 votes ; Indiana, with 10 ; Nevada, with 3 . NewJeiscy, wlthO; New Yerk, with 155, and Ohit , with U3 ; a total of 1)1 debatable votes. Te eusure Democratic success the can didate of that party would have te carry all tlie states above credited te him, and in addition New Yerk and Indiana ; or f Connecticut be transferred from the Jtepublicau column te the Deinoeiutic, NowYeik, New Jersey and Connecti cut will elect the Democratic candidate without any Western state. Te carry both Ohie and Indiana without some of the Eastern states is net 0110114I1 te elect the Democratic- nominee. It, w mid seem te be the p irt of political wisdom, therefore, net te risk the loei of the es sential in order te gain that which is net Hulllcient te elect. It will be noticed, however, with sat isfaction by Democrats that while their column Is substantially solid that of the opposition is net Excepting Vermont and Ithode Island theie Is net a state en the Republican side which has net been shaken In recentyears and meie than half of them in number and two thirds of their electoral votes are worth lighting for by the Democrats. The man for whom the party is look ing new is the one who can most surely carry the states necessary te elect him j nnd lie h very likely te be the 0110 who can ulse carry meat of tlie balance of the debatable states. Wis cordially aree with tlie New Km in Its commendation of Dr. P. J. Ileo buck for the publication In detail of his financial account as chairman of the Itepublican county commlttee, exhibit ing a full statement of the sources and amounts of nil his receipts and the ap plication of all ids expenditures. It is a solitary example, we believe, and ene that deserves te be followed byBtnte, county und city committees every where. There Is ue reason why mouey Bhnuld be raised or spent in politics in such ways that the publle have no right te knew where it went ; ami if every chairman's or committee's acceuut had te be ex hibited in detail it is very likely there would be far less of the demoralizing aud degrading expenditures which new corrupt our pentics utid meke rich, in Btend of worthy, candidates sought bv " J their parlies. Tlie law prescribes that candidates for oillce In this state may Indulge in no ether expenses than for public meetings, the dissemination of information and traveling expentes. Committees should net be allowed te go beyond these, and they should be made te show up. Candidates who pay assess mentrt for ether purposes than tlmse ex pressly authorized by law, have te com mil perjury when they take their oath of eillce. Let there be an etui of tlie whole disgraceful business ; and there will be a beginning of the end made when there is publication ordered of every political cotunilttee's receipts andexpendituies Knrnnsr.NTATiv:: Hatch wants a series of individual Democratic funerals in New Yerk, Ohie and Indiana Mr. 1 Hatch was excited by the selection d Chicago as the place for holding the na tional convention. He thought it was wrong for the Democrats te troop into that city when the Republicans had trooped out. Mr. Hatch is from St. Leuis, which wanted the convention, and lie has a temper like his climate het. If Mr. Hatch dues net keep cooler t etc may be a funeral in Missouri. Still thriu was method in Mr. Hatch's madness ; n few political funerals in aud around the states he names would be beneficial te the party ; a little of the old bleed might be let out with profit. Tub 11th section of the Sili aiticle of tlie constitution authorizes the court uf quarter sessions te divide wards of cities into election districts whenever it "shall be of opinion that the convenience of the electors and the public interests will be promoted thereby." In cities of luO.OOn population, no district is permitted te have in it mere than -e voters. That is enough for ene poll. This city should be divided into election districts of that size. Everyone agrees that this Is expe dient. The court will act en the suggus -lien of the mayor and councils. Will they net make it ? Tin; reports of the Philadelphia pas senger railways made te tlie department of internal nffaiisut Hurrisburg show most astonishing profits en the put of these corporations. Seme of them make as high as iO per cent, en their pud in capital and few go lialew li. Pus is entirely tee much. They have a luci-ip-ely of the right of way en the s'reets ever which they run and exist by public suirerauce for public uses, lueir man agement lias a right te a fair profit, but net te such exorbitant dividends as they new get.

I. New that the smoke of the late political battle has cleared uw.iy it is a geed time for ceusnleiiiig the propriety of districting the city into preeiucts. In his last annual moa;e Mayer MaoGemgle, releriing te tins subjeet, said : " If, has become evident te the most e.nin.l observer that additional polling places should he provided in nearly all thu wards of thu eity. One of the strengejt argument used for making nine wards lu the eity out of the old four divisien'', was that there were tee many votes eistat ene polling place. The smallest ward lu the city new, en a lull ptill, has nearly llve hundred votes, the largest nearly nine hundrel. In any oise the number is tee irreat The fruition of the new con stitutien wisely ptevided, Artiele 8, Suction II, that ' districts iu cities of evor 100,000 inhabitants, shall be divided by the courts of quarter sessions having jurisdiction therelu, wbunuver at thu next preceding oleetien mere than two hundred and fifty votes Hhall have been polled therein ; and otlier election districts, whenever the court of the prepur county shall hoof thoep.mon that tuoceuvoniouco of the doctors aud the public interests whl be promoted thereby.' These fiinall sub-di visions make the detection of election frauds aud the preservation of order ou eloctieti day mero easy. Three hundred veters for any eni poll are plenty. The addltleual expense would be of little importance. I commend the matter te your very suiieus consideration." Tlie votes cast for mayor in each ward at the recent oleetion were as fellows : 1st ward -lOe, 2d ward 0.VJ, lid ward, 5 Id, .Hit ward 010, 5th ward 578. Oth ward 833, 7th ward 703, 8:h ward 803, 9.h ward 752. Thore never was greater oeoaslou than new for the preolnetiug te be made. The first five wards might have but two pro pre pro einots for the proseut, but the outside four should be divided iute threi products each ; aud the matter should be brought tu the notieo of the court at ouce, se as te be accomplished bofero tlie fall election.
