majority and minority reports of the Ku-Kux
committee were submitted. The proposed in
vesiigation into the sale Of arms by French
agents was further discussed. Mr.. Conklng
gave notice Of an amendment that the commit
tee inquire whether any American citizen had
held communication with any French agent
intended to defeat the measures Of the United
States, which is statutory misdemcanor
In the House the usual bills were introduced
The kuklux committee submitted the two
reports presented to the Senate, but the House
refused to print the minority report, on the
ground that il contained supplementary Ian
gnago in charging Congress with bad faith to-
ward the reconstructed States a; il was after
ward ordered that the report might be printed
provided all supplementary language were
stricken out. Mr.. Cox, OF the committee, pro-
tes,ed2gainst the mutaiion of the report A
bill was passed repeating the duty on tea and
coffee Mr.. Kerr pointing out that the purpose
OF the bill was to sacrifice large revenue,
cheaply collected, in order TO retain other du-
lies in the interests of the Pennsylvania pro-
toetionists.

lntion ofinqniry into the sale of arms to France

between Senators Schurz and Morton. which
produced great excitement. Mr. Morton char
ged that the town Of Meridian, Miss, was a
ku-klux community, when an aged man in
the gallery cried out, at is not true" and
was removed with difficulty, exclaimng, at
is not true; ne shall not say what is not true. -
To end the confusion, the Senate went into
executive session.
In the House The business was unimportant.
Some people, ignorant Of what good editing
is, imagine the getting up of selected matter to
be the easiest work in the world to do, where
as il is the incest that is done a paper If
they find the editor with scissors in hand, they
are sure TO say, "Ah that's the way YOU get
up original matter, Ell ~ The facts are, that
the interest the morality, the variety, useful
ness Of paper depend in no small degree up
on lis selected matter.

Knoxville, Tenn, April 2G, ISL.


The Supreme Court Of Tennessee has
decided that an opinion formed from
reading newspaper reports disqualiiics
parties from acting as Jurors. Some
people, prolcsscdly competent to Judge,
regard this decision as at least novel.
With our limited knowledge of LEGAL
rulings which originated with the Ro-
mans, and which have been miracu-
lousy preserved and retained through
the long ages that have since rolled
away into the dim and shadowv past
we would not of course venture an opn-
ion in the face of such tribunal: but if
this decision of tho Court, cnunciatcd
by Chief Justice Nicholson. has the eff
feet to 90 away with the elaborate and
sickcning details of crime with which
American journalism daily rr@alcs its
readers, it will prove immensely bcnc-
fetal. Otherwise il must create cmbar-
ra-smcnt in the way Of obtaining intel
ligcnt iurics.
