The defeat of the Senate Currency
bill in the House renders it almost
certain that no bill will pass Congress
at this session which can receive the
Executive approval. Under these
circumstances, the currency question
will be the issue of the fall elections,
and the nominating conventions may
as well understand it and take sides
upon it. We are bound 10 say that
the imitation newspapers, in this State
are right in insisting that plain Lam
guage shall be used in the platforms
of all the parties.--C Chicago Tribune.
The wish is father TO the thought

Other people have sense aud reason

this country are shrewd enough to SEQ
the sinister and unholy motive Of
the Tribune in the above paragraph

Jealous lit, in whirl of passion, tore
down about its head its own house, is
no reason why other people should
copy sitter them, but ON the contrary
it should be warning not to duplicate
their folly.

NEW MEXICO.

A frantic effort 1s now being made
by handful of politicians in New
Mexico to have that territory admitted
as State. In fact under the skillful
manipulation Of Judge Elkins, it's dele
gate ON the floor Of the House, tho bill
for admission has already passed that
body, and is now pending in the
Senate. 1t is claimed by the friends
of the measure that New Mexico has
about one hundred thousand people,
and that it possesses the requisite
population, and tho material resources
to be able to take care of itself, and to
ultimately become great and popu.
lous State.
The truth abont the matter is that
there is no good reason why New
Mexico should be admitted into the
Union except that the General Govern
ment would thereby be relieved from
the expenses of running its territorial
Government. Its population is for the
most part the worst job lot Of mixed
races and scalawags upon the face OF
the earth. It's principal city, Santa Fe,

thousand souls, aud boasts Of having

of this population not more than two

can and the Negro, and the fusion
seems to have retained all the worst
characteristics and loft out all the bet

entire native population of Santa Fe
are devOut Catholics and they regular
ly attend church every Sunday morn

circus or fandaDgo at night. IgnOr-
ance, vice and superstition universally
prevail, and they are as utterly unfit

hords which roam at large.
The strongest argument which can
be urged in favor of its admission ia
that it will give Elkins and some

THE bill which recently passed the
House for the reduction Of the army
will lessen the expenditures in this
direction seven millions according to
the best estimates. So from time to
time has the pruning work of General
Garfield's appropriation committee of

expenditures and inaugurating a
system Of rigid economy. It is certain
that there has been careful and labor.
ious study had during this session OF
Congress in the way of reform and
economy, end Congress deserves
great credit for the record it has made
in this regard.
There can be no question but that
the action of Congress this session has
been particularly directed TO en-
forcing the most rigid economy, and
~ q consequence all danger OF a
necessity for increased taxation is
avoided.
