SENATOR FOODS CASE.

Senator Wood has presented his reply to the
report of the Committee of Investigation. lie
makes an elaborate defense Of the measures
for which he is accused of voting in the in
terest of Mr.. Tweed, and argues that they
were unexceptionable in character, OF at any
rate were SO regarded at the time when he
supported them. This part of his answer is
irrelevant. If a legislator takes money to in
fluence his action, it is no excuse to say that
the service required of him was not in itself
dishonOrable. The offense is not in the vote,
but in accepting bride for casting it. Push
Mr.. Woods theory to its legitimate length,
and you may satisfy your conscience that
while it would be very wicked to sell your vote
70 a Democrat, there can be no hahn in selling
it to a Republican.
He admits borrowing $4,000 from Mr.
Tweed, which has never been repaid and Tor
which he gave no security, but declares that
he wanted it not for himself but for his
friend Chamberlain. The disingenuOus char
acter of this plea is exposed by the evidence
that the money was to meet the necessities OF
the whisky concern in which Chamberlain and
Wood were equal partners. Of course there
fore the money was just as much Tor the
Senator's own use AS Ill IL Hdt Sohc "hcO'1
into his pOcket-book.
JAY Goulds $4,000 was not a bride, accord
ing to Senator Wood, because there were no
measures before the Legislature at that time
in which the Erie Ring was interested. MIR.
Wood neglects to state, however, that II strong
outside influence was at work to introduce the
repeal of the Classification Act, and that the
Gould party were striving to make as many
friends in the Legislature as they could. lie
admits that Mr.. Gould probably wanted to
secure his good will, and especially to
blot out the memory OF the recent
contest for the Senatorial nomination,
in which the Erie President lad spent $4,000
to secure the choice of Mr.. Woods competitor
and he thinks Mr.. Gould also wanted him to
support a railroad project Of the Erie Com
many in GeneseO. In other words, he con-
fesses that o notorious cOrruptiOnist offered
him $4,000 for his Friendship" and he took
the money; but it was not bribery, because
the services to be rendered in return were
general, not specific.
Senator Woods case is made the special or
der ut Albany to-day. We shall be interested
in knowing what his associates in the Senate
Chamber thinks of the Conduct of Republ.
can legislator who "borrows" $4,000 from the
head corruptionist of the Tammany Ring and
$4,000 from the head c0rruptiOnist Of the
Erie Ring, just at time when one has three
or four gigantic swindling measures to be put
through, and the other is in daily fear of the
introduction of q resolution to repeal his most
valuable privilege.

A BILL EOR TIE PEOPLE.

Gov. Blair of Michigan has submitted to the
House of Representatives bill ITO further
"amend tho Homestead law by establishing
"a Homestead Land Office in the City of New
"York,r for which many thousands will have
reason to bless him. We trust this session
will not close without seeing this bill erected
into law. After providing for the opening
of said land-Oflce, the bill proceeds:
"SEC 2. That the Commissioner OF the General Lana
Office shall first furnish said homestead landoice with
copies OF the plats and ednoes OF ten or moro town
shps OF vacant or mostly vacant lands suitable for agr-
cultural purposes each OF the land districts whcfe
large contiguous bodies of surveyed and offered lands
subject entry under said act are situated ana there
after Of all the newlysurveyed public lands SUBJECT 10
such entry the time they shall DO offered at pr
yate sale at the district landofces and all such lands
sba be subject to entry at said homestead landoice
under the PROVISIONS Of the homestead laws, III tho man
ner provided In the next ,''r '"''
shall also furnish said homestead andoihce with such
mans as arc furnished the district landoices ana all
the proper books forms, and Instructions Tor apphcf
lions under said act" go
The remaining provisions Of this act will
be readily inferred from the foregoing. PrO-
vision is made for transferring, without adul-
tional cost to the applicant, his location IN
case another shall have taken his lot at the
district Office before his application shall have
been transmitted thereto from the New YORK
Office.
OF course, we do not imagine that what arc
called the poor of our city, or of any great
city, will profit by the new facility proposed
for acquiring hOmesteads. Nine-tenths OF
these, if removed hence to eligible quarter
sections and fairly located thereon, would
not stay there three months. They do
not possess the qualities required IN those
who would wrestle successfully with the will
derness and transform it into fruitful fields
and gardens. But there are thousands OF en-
ergetic, aspiring, effective workers in and
around our City whose attention would be
attracted by the establishment of such an
Office here, and who would thereby be brought
practically nearer the Public Domain. The
facility of reaching vacant Homestead lands
would be brought home to their apprehension
their natural rcpugnance to starting Off on
vague hunt for a new home would be din1n-
ished if not wholly overcome. Congress Will
greatly benefit at once the East and tho West
by passing Gov. Blair's bill.

4 CHANCE FOR WHITES.

Cotton is very high, for the crop OF 1911
was short, and apprehensiOns are expressed
that 1872 will be signalized by still lighter
Weld. A Southerncr writes that Presiden-
tial Election is bad for Cotton. The negroes
will desert the fields and crops to swell
professions and mass meetings, and the
picking especially will be neglected under the
influence of political excitement, so that the
crop actually bagged will be very light and
he thinks the price may go up to thirty cents.
We do not share these forebodmgs but
those who do must see that this affords
splendid opportunity for the Southern Whites
There must be at least One Million White
men at the South who are not too r1ch 70
work for a living, nor yet too poor to hire or
buy few acres of cotton land and span OF
mules Even at twenty cents per pound, 1t
must be within the power OF these to grow
and pick ten bales of 800 pounds each,
amounting to $1,000. Are they likely to do
betterf If not, why should MT they improve
their opportunity and make enough cotton In
1872 to buy themselves farmsg

VICIOUS ADVERTISING.

If certain unprincipled newspaper publishers
did not put infamous advertisements into
their columns, the victims of the arts of liber-
tines and abOrtiOnists would be much fewer.
There are two or three sheets in this city
which print columns of notices adj
dressed to unwary or misguided women
with unmistakable import. The vast crowd of
professional child-murderers who have figured
in criminal annals, or who have achieved in
