HOGS.

The demand for hogs continues good with a
firm market. The receipts for the past week
been better. The demand is principally for
shipment, and carload lots are preferable to
buyers, but our farmers will find good hogs in
small lots in fair request. 10 head were sold
during the week on market square, at an aggre-

EXCITING SCENE IN THE FRENCH ASSEM-
BLY.-A HERALD special telegram from Paris
reports the occurrence Of an extraordinary
scene of excitement in the French Legislative
Assembly yesterday. representative named
Naquet proposed a resolution declaring the
family property of Napoleon confscated to the
State. The motion was received with shouts
of dersion. Twenty hands were held up in
favor of it, Notwithstanding. M. Naquet
appears to be remarkable parsonage
remarkable for his personal appearance as
for his politics. He is described as dwarf
and hunchback. His soul appears to soar
beyond the confines of its mortal easement,
however, and it may be that Napoleon will
regard him as being ''bigger than he looks. "
France and England have been moved by
hunchbacks In the olden time.

wonderful future Of the country; but nothing
should be left to accidents where the savings,
contributions aud hopes of the mass of the
people are at stake.
Our national banks are similar in drawing
vast profits from the industry of the country,
though they are different kind of institutions
in some respects from those we have named.
The government was proiusely liberal in giving
them the profits Of national circulation,
amounting to twenty millions or so
year, without any equivalent in re-
turn. In fact, 1t has given them
capital Of three hundred and fifty mil
lions without any consideration, for the bonds
they deposit as security for their circulation
draw interest the same as those of any pri-
vate individual. This security, however,
backed by the endorsement of the govern
ment. makes their circulating notes safe But
this does not secure their depositors or others
doing business with them, as has been seen in
the disastrous failure of several. They, like
the savings banks or insurance companies,
may enter into speculation or stand upon an
insecure foundation. Both the national and
State legislative bodies seem to make laws
more for the purpose of favoring few capt.
talists and spectators than to promote and
protect the interests of the mass of the people.
Banks and insurance companies of one kind
Or another are almost as numerous as dry
goods stores. Are they all needed? Are they
al safe? These questions will be answered
before long in the progress of events. In the
our legislators could not do better
than to thoroughly overhaul all these financial
institutions.

ANOTHER CABINET CRISIS IN SPAN.-The
members of the Sagasta- Malcampo Ministry
have resigned their portfolios to the King. We
expected as much after reading yesterday the
despatch from Madrid announcing the defeat Of
the Ministerial candidate, Senior Herreros, for
the Presidency of the National Legislature.
The Sagasta- Malcampo Cabinet has been short
lived indeed, but it surprises no person who
has watched with any degree of interest the
political events in Spain since Amadeus be-
came King. The loss Of Prim to the country,
and especially to the young savoyard, is a sore
one, and though the youthful monarch is doing
all in his power to harmonic the conflicting
elements in the Spanish nation and bring order
out of the political chaos that disturbs It, his
progress has been slow. The present Cabinet
difficulty adds to his perplexties.

LET WELL ENOUGH ALoNE.-The Board of
Trade Of the State capital are resolved to have
Albany made port Of entry. They had bet

might be little too much, even for Alba
mans.

THE NEW APPoRT1oNMENr BILL IN THE
SENArE-As a matter of propriety and JUS
tice we think the Senate should leave the sub
ject of the new apportionment of members OF
the House of Representatives to the House
ITSELF It is the body most directly interested
in the matter, and the tinkering OF the House
bill, as proposed by the Senate Judiciary
Committee, is hardly in the line Of strict
legislative etiquette. The House bill, which
comedies to the old States about their former
representation, is the best, and the Senate
should adopt 1t without unnecessary delay.

Governor Ito ON the Manifest Destiny Of
Japan.
The picture drawn of the rapid mental and
material progress of the Japanese nation by
Governor Ito, in his speech at the banquet In
San Francisco rendered to the Embassy of
which he is q member, gives promise that this
strangely gifted people will soon place them
selves at the head of Eastern civilization. In
his speech the Governor reviewed the progress
which had been made and alluded with evil
dent pride to the great political changes which
had been accomplished by his countrymen
without the shedding of one drop Of blood.
This he put forward prominently as an I'M
questionable proof of the advance in knowi-
edge and civilization, which, he claimed, had
taken place within the last few years In his
native land. Upon the great triumph of right
by moral agencies over institutions and privi-
leges which had existed for thousands of years
he based his statement that great as has been
the change wrought by the introduction of the
telegraph and railway in the material condition
of Japan, the influence exerted by modern
ideas has been even more powerful and far
reaching.
Unlike other Eastern nations, the japanese
have acknowledged the superiority of West
ern civilization, and set themselves vigorously
to work to master the problems of our social
and political systems. Nor have they been
restrained by prejudice from adopting what
ever appeared to them worthy Of imitation in
our industrial and governmental systems. In
his manner of approaching the value of closer
relations and more intimate knowledge be-
tween our people and his own Governor Ito
displays breadth of view and an intimate
acquaintance with the causes that influence
the prosperity of societies such as are not often
found among even the enlightened men
of the most advanced nations. Governor
Ito's speech is clear and states
manlike expression of ideas which would de
honor to any of our legislators, and is especially
noticeable for the absence of that Oriental
exaggeration which would have been pardon
able in an ambassador of an Eastern poten-
tate. But instead we have utterances Of
practical wisdom and evidence Of an acquaint-
ance and comprehension of the lessons OF
history, unfortunately very rare, even among
our legislators.
In dealing with questions of State the Gov
ernor develops his ideas with force and evil
dent grasp of mind. When he quits the
regions of speculation and comes down
to the not less interesting question of COM
merce we find in him q shrewdness and q
disposition to trade worthy of Down East
Yankee. Instead of initiating our speech
makers and devoting the peroration of his
address to an oratorical fight of fancy the
sensible Governor, with keen eye to bust
ness, announces that his countrymen are ready
to trade, offering their cooperation in devel-
oping the commerce of the Pacific. With
such shrewd and enlightened statesmen direct
ing her policy the future of Japan is secure,
and American citizens may confidently extend
the hand of friendship and brotherhood to those
worthy Yankees of the Eastern Hemisphere.

A vigorous lobby effort is being made at AL
bany to prevent the passage by the Senate of
the Audit and Apportionment bill, which
passed the Assembly yesterday. The game
Of the lobbyists is to embarrass the question
by striking from the proposed Board the name
John Cochrane. To this end the Senators
outside New York are confdentially assured by
men whose interference alone should excite
their suspicion that John Cochrane is not
republican at heart; that he is not faithful
reformer, and the like. If the Senators
have any regard for their own repu-
tation they will avoid these lobby
jackals, or treat them as all intermeddling
knaves deserve to be treated. It may be
questionable whether any of the special legis-
lation initiated and urged by the Comptroller
was advisable, beyond the simple raising of
money to meet the city bonds and interest
and pay the citys honest debts. But if
Board of Audit and Apportionment is to be
created at all-for long or short period of
service-it is eminently proper that the Presi-
dent of the Board of Aldermen, the repre-
sentative Of the legislative power of the city,
should be a member thereof
ANOTHER HEAVY Snow STORM is reported
in the far West, blockading again the Pacific
Railway trains on both sides of the Rocky
Mountains. Very well; they must take it as
it comes. But this winters experience on the
Central Pacific route will be apt to hurry up
the Northern Pacific road, along which, from
the depression in the Rocky Mountains in that
quarter, and in consequence of the warm winds
from the Pacific, there is a comparatively
light snow fall /; and it will be apt to hurry up
the Southern Pacific road, which turns the
flank Of the Rocky Mountains and the Sierra
Nevada, and along which there is never any
obstruction from snow. And the fact is, we
want all three Of these Pacific roads; and
when they are all in operation the way
and the through traffic will give work enough
for all, and they will assist, rather than injure,
each other in building up all the country be-
tween the lines.

road. They know now, as they knew before
election, that the common stock of the cor
poration has been raised by the ring direc-
tors from twenty-four millions in 1868 to
seventy-eight millions in 1871, and that in the
same period the funded debt has been in
creased four millions of dollars. They know
now, as they knew then, that no dividends
whatever have been paid either on common
or preferred stock; that while the net earn
ings of the road for the year 1901 were
over seventeen million dollars the
net surplus has been only little
over one hundred thousand dollars, the
remainder Of the enormous earnings having
been swallowed up by the management;
that the members Of the ring have all in
the meantime amassed sudden and princely
wealth. Yet they have become converted by
the arguments of one Of the most efficient and
INSCRIPTIONS Hobbies that ever disgraced
State capital, and have learned to look upon
the notorious Erie Ring as an upright,
honest and beneficial institution.
Senator O'Brien's bill will defy criticism.
II contains, as we have said, no arbitrary or
unusual provision, and simply gives to the
stockholders Of the Erie Railroad the same
privileges and provides for them the same
safeguards that are enjoyed by the stockhold-
ers Of other corporations in the State. The
Classification act was piece of special
and extraordinary legislation. It allowed the
seventeen directors of Erie to classify them
selves and prolong their terms to from one to
five years, so that no more than three or four
should 60 out of Office in any one year. This
rendered 1t impossible for the stockholders
under any circumstances, to change the COM
plexion of the Board under three full years,
and impractcable for them to do 1t even then.
Mr.. O'Brien's bill repeats that arbitrary law,
and provides for new election Of directors In
July next In order to insure an honest cleo
ton. at which Az the bona fds sto0k-
