Nothing authoritative concerning the attitude of St. Lawrence as to the State Seiutorship for this district is known as yet, and in the nature of things nothing can be known until the county shall hold its conventions next month. But the expressions of really _ representative St. Lawrence* Republicans, so far as such have rallied us, are uniformly to the effect that the understanding between St. Lawrence and franklin which gave the office to the late William T. Qftea ought to continue to hold, and that Franklin will probably be permitted to .supply the candidate, provided only that we present a fit and acceptable roan for the honor.. This is as it should be, and is wholly in aooord with the spirit of fair- ness and equity that has Invariably char- acterised St. Lawrence Republicans in their relations with: Franklin for half a century. In these carcumstanoee the course that Franklin should take is obvious. It ia obligatory upon us, first, to present as our candidate a Eepublican who in ex perience and in grasp of district and State affairs, in State acquaintance and standing, in soundness and safety of poUticel judgment, in proven fidelity to BepabUcaniam of the best and highest type, in intellectual calibre and in moral fibre is unquestionably big enough and; good enough to fill a really great office; and, second, it is essential, if we want genuinely to have our claims admitted and acoepted, that in nam|ng such a man. we do it without wrangling and with absolute unanimity. The PidUiAiHUic has never engaged in the business of creating candidacies for the Republicans of Franklin, and it has no purpose now to attempt it as regards the Senatorship. It may properly, how- ever, chronicle as news, and approvingly, what is already current discussion on the question, and so make public what seems to-day to be the popular judgment con- cerning it. So far as we have heard, but: a single name has been thai far suggested seriously in connection with /the Senator- ship, and thoughtful rnen who know the ooun^r and its oonspicuouB Eepublioans will not require to be told'that that name is Frederick D.Kilburn of Halone. Mr. KSIburn's experience, abilities and character manifestly equip him in an exceptional degree for a useful and hon- orable^ service in the Senate.. He has already served in that body, he enjoys as intimate acquaintance with and the absolute confidence of most of the present members of the Senate, he is in touch and has influence with most of the State leaders, and in fertility of resource, in capacity for debate, in independence and correctness of judgment, in the virility of Us Republicanism, in the quality of achieving whatever ends he starts put to oompaas, and in uprightness and absolute trustworthiness in all respects, no man in the district ranks higher, and none could be expected to represent us with a larger measure of usefulness locally, or with more of dignity and credit to the State at large, \'.'•' Of course we are not presuming to forestall or to foreclose the entire free- dom of choice of the Republican* of Franklin county in this matter, which ia properly for their determination as a whole, and not at all to be arranged or settled by any one man, or by any little gronnefinsa. Atthsssmetime, we are nafolded Itself public opinion points only \: In this one direction, and that, as usual, Whan wefl considered, publio opinion chooses the course that is unquestionably wisest and best. It is due to Mr. Balburn to say in this connection that he ia in no manner or degree responsible for the presentation of bis name as a candidate, and that his . position in regard to it is an unqualified refusal to seek tbe office-or to make a canvass for It, He appreciates the im- portance of the office and the honor that the occupancy of it carries, and would accept willingly and serve to the best of his ability if the people of the district: shall indicate their preference for him It goea without saying that from a finan cial standpoint, there would be no advan- tage, bat *. decided detriment, i& him from being Senator, since the salary would not pay expenses hj at least a thousand rioUars a year.

Accordingly the making of wagers proceeded list week almost as actively and as openly as in the days be- fore Governor Hughes persuaded the Legislature to proscribe bookmaking. though with some pronounoed differ- ences.. Money did not visibly change hands, there was no discernible recording of any of the beta, and presumably the professionals who offered the odds and aocepted the wagera r of specUtors re- stricted their transactions to men whom ttiey knew, and confined them, to deals involving, considerable amounts. Com- petition not being open, the profetsionals are likely also to have obtained more favorable odds for-themselTes than would have been the, case under the old methods. Thus, even if the hew law is not effective to sup|>res8 race-track gam- bling utterly, it eeema likely to do at least thiagood—thac it has abolished the opportunity for boys, clerks and others destroyed a potent cause of theft and °* lose of moneys which the victims could not spare. Eveaif itdoesno more than this, the law will have wrought a fine result. The betting of men who are rich, though doubtless shocking to moralists, is really of inferior consequence, but the temptation which the old system used to offer to those who could not afford to lose and to the young was mischievous^ in the extreme, terribly demoralising, and pro- ductive of crime. ^ with the proposition that nominations for publio office should be made by direct vote, but the lower Souse of the Legis- lature refused last week by a vote of ninety-seven to seventy-seven to pass a bOl embodying that requirement.

The important Offices to be filled in Franklin county at the election of 1800 are member of Assembly, county cleric and county treasurer, and developments that have occurred during, the past few days are giving an unusually early inter est to local politic*, and 1 have brought about at least one surprise. „- According to precedents'tbat have pre- vailed for a generation and more, Mr. Harry H. Hawlay had been expected to reeeive another term in the Assembly as a matter of /coarse; but he has. decided that notwithstanding he appreciates the honor of representing the county at Al- bany, and enjoys, the work, he .can not afford to serve longer in the Assembly. With the striotest economy the salary of- the position barely pays expenses, or at the best leaves but a scant margin be- tween income and outgo, and Mr. Ha wley feels that regard for his own interests and his duty to his family require him to seek something that will enable him to save at least a part of bis earnings. He has therefore authorized the announcement that he is a candidate for the Republican nomination for county clerk. The only other declared candidate, so fa* \as we know, is Edward T. Roes, of Santa Clara —formerly a telegraph operator and later a clerk in the poet-offioe at Malone. Sepeculation is of course, mora or less busy with the names of a number of gen- tlemen who are thought likely now to announce themselves as candidates for the Assembly nomination, but until they shall speak for themselves the PAI«- tAMCM does not feel warranted in pub* fishing their names. For county treasurer there are three known aspirants—Orriu W. Laurence, of Malone, who now holds the office, Burton L. Reynolds, of Brandon, and Charles Minohui, cashier of the Saranac Lske National Bank. Each has notable elements of strength, and the contest will doubtless be a warm one, with its iseue at present decidedly uncertain. The matter of the Senatorship is dis* ousBed in another articla. would be willing to forego this yrobable honor and distinction for the sake of be- ing Senator. , The laws of Eng'and excluding Roman Catholics from eligibiUty to holdtheoffioe of lord chancellor and lord lieutenant of Ireland, prohibiting the residence and the acquisition of property by Jesuists and other monastic orders, and the form of oath that the sovereign is required\ to take upon accessioni to tte throne, have been for centuries a cause of protest and rank- ling resentment with Catholics. A. meas- ure modifying these acts rsceived a ma- jority vote in the Commons last .week, and though the session, ia now so near its close that actual passage of the bill cam not be expected this year, there Is a con- fident feeling that the offensive provisions of the laws in question will be stricken out in the nea* future. The strike of the postal and telegraph and telephone employees in France, all under governmental control, has practi- cally collapsed. The ministry dismissed Consideration of the bill reviaing she tariff continues in the Senate to the ex- clusion of practically all other\ matters,' and unfortunately With no probability of a vote being reached in the near future. Most of the set speechmaking is, how- ever, thought to have been concluded, so that disouSBion from this time forward is likely to be in the math concerning par- ticular schedules, and rather^rief on any one item. A very interesting vote last week was on the question whether iron ore should be on the free list or be duti- able. Eighteen Democrats, a majority of the whole number of Senators of that faith who were present, voted for a duty of twenty-five cents a ton, thus belying Oemocratio professions conoerning tariff oonvictions, and rendering ridiculous their demands for a measure carrying lower duties. But whatever form the Senate may give to the bill wUl not really matter much because its final shaping i» sure to be wrought in conference bet ween the two Houses; That conference will alone require weeks of time, and unless more of a disposition to expedite matters is evidenced than has thus far been ap- parent, the bill does not seem likely to reach the President until Well along in July, whereas the earlier hope bad been that it might be law before the end of June. Business interests are becoming impatient over the delay, which they claim is coating the country millions of dollars daily. If the bill could be got oat oftheway/uidttstrysnl trade would BB> donbtediy take on new impetus, and prosperity be auiek^ in evidence. •/if Qoverhor Hughes approves the ap- propriation of half a million dollars made by the Legislature this year f#r the building of anew State prison at Cont- * stock, Washington ooxuity, the institu- tion will be for first termers only, and the aim of the priaon-authoritiee will be to so train the Inmates that when they are released they will seek employment in the country Instead of returning to the cities, whence so large a proportion of the eonvicU oooM. It is expected that farm- ing will be the principal industry at Com- atook, if the prison be built, and the raiautg of potatoes, beans, peas and gardea produce generally will be especial- y featured.

Governor Hughes points out in his veto memorandum that the bill is unconstitu- tional in that it does not fix any rate of annual tax to retire the bonds at their maturity, and says that were there no other questions involved be would veto the measure. He goes still further, how- ever, and says he does not consider it sound policy for the State, independently and upon its own behalf, to assume an obligation to pay pensions based simply upon service in the armies of the United States. o ' parts were well taken.
