cans will be able to carry the State this fall,
and secure Legislature which will elect a

ccded. 1t is agreed that this is the only ul-

They Don't Have to Coax.

The following item from the Circular,
the organ Of the Oneida Community ,ex-
hibits very contented state Of feeling
on the part of the ladies Of that peculiar
society They get everything they wish
for without asking for it: y
| A Ladies' Meeting was held the other
day that the women might eShort one
another to be thankful 1t Is almost
proverbial Of the unregenerate woman
the more she has the more she wants !;
the more devoted man is to her vel
fare the more exacting she is. "The
men of the Community are constantly
providing us with new comforts and lux
uries," said one; sslet us be grateful and
express our thanks, and not bother and
tease them with minor wants that can be
well put aside ''Women in the Com,
munity do not have to coax their hus-
bands for things we need, but every. thing
is furnished before we ask it, said an
other; s.let us then be smiling and cheer
|ful, and do all IN our power to make
home pleasant And so around; every
one gave grateful testimony, and ex
pressed desire to enjoy the present in
stead of longing for additional comforts
in the future.

The census law under which the recent
census was taken required the takers to
question each man as to the amount he
was worth, and as to how much was in
real and how much in personal property.
For reasons that are obvious to every re
fecting mind, statistics gathered in this
way are utterly unreliable as evidence OF
the wealth of the country. 1t was an
extraordinary and senseless requirement,
but it vas given out that only the aggre-
gates were wanted for publication But
such an inquiry, followed by the publica.
ton of the names and amounts, is the
meanest inquisition government ever
made. And it lacks any excuse of ne
cessity or usefulness It's thus made a
contribution to local scandal and mean
curiosity, and a prolific means of per-
sonal injury. The government has done
an act which any respectable despotism
would despise-G Cincinnati Gazette,
