message, says that violent white men, for
political purposes, have brought about

of minority, in which case one race
must be remanded to its previous unforuu
tunate condition or emigrate.

Bismarck regards the action OF the
Reichstag. in voting to oppose its dignity
and in favor OF amending the Constitu-
ton to prevent the arrest Of deputies

vote of want OF confidence, and will
resign. II is further said that in con-
sequence Of this the resolution will be
modified.
A special to the Morning Post from
Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1874-12-23
RESPONSIBLE MINISTRY.

The New York Herald has several
times called attention to the advantages
that would accrue if the members Of
the Presidents Cabinet were required
to be directly responsible to the House
of Representatives aud thus required to
be members of the Senate or House. II
this were the case, then unless the Min
istry could command majority in the
Lower House, they would be compelled
to resign, and the Cabinet would then
be fully in accordance with public opin-
ion. which at present it is well-known
it is not. The people are tired Of the set
Of scrubs who have been manipulating
public business, and desire ADLER and
purer men than those now in Office. II
those men had seats in either House,
they would then be compelled to have
a distinct and Ineligible policy. for the
value and benefit of which they would
then have to answer, and stand or fall by
the results. At present, the Cabinet has
only sort of second hand way to get at
the Houses, and have to work through
the very doubtful and dangerous media
of the committees or irresponsible pri-
vate members. By this means con-
siderable amount Of power would also be
taken out of the hands Of the President
and put in those Of the Cabinet, who
could be at any time during the session
Of Congress be controlled in the use of it..
As the matter stands at present. the
President is invested with almost auto.
cratic powers. At leas. it may be said
that whether or not he has that power
legally, he uses il to all intents and pur-
poses. Take for example the Kellogg
case. The President put him in Office
and keeps him there by the continued
use of federal bayonets, with as little
regard to the peoples rights as guaran-
teed by the constitution, as the En-
peror Of Russia appoints a
Muscovite Governor for the subju.
gated Poles. II responsible Ministr,
had to answer for proceedings SO wei
calculated to excite alarm, in the foruu
!. of the National Legislature, such dan
gerous policy could not long be sus
tanned. Even in Germany, where Their
are no pretensions to popular Govern
ment, We have seen in the last few day.
the powerful and stubborn Bismarcl
bend like reed before the powers Of a
adverse majority in the Reichstag, an
made him declare that he would resign
for it was impossible to carry on tn
government in the face Of an opposition
majority in that assembly. When thi
is considered, and also that in German,
all ideas of government among the rul
ing classes are strongly monarchical
even despotic, it seems curious that il
these United States, where the peopl
are supposed to govern themselves, tina
ministry is kept in Office and polio
maintained Numerically opposite to tn
will Of the people as expressed at th
polls. This seems so anomalous, illo
gical and impolitic, that such perver
sion Of the principles of a Republica
Government we'll deserves the graves
and most earnest consideration of th
thoughtful and patriotic, more especial
Of those who prefer the country to part.

CHARLES JONES, the most desperate
convict who escaped from the State
Prison during the emeute OF September
II, 1872, and one Of the leaders Of that
break, has at last been captured in Iowa.
This is the man who ia charged by his
fellow convicts with having shot and
killed Matt Pixley during the melee
which occurred at the time OF the break.
He is also believed to be one OF the party
who killed and partially burned the mail
rider Poor while en- route from Aurora to
Genoa. 1t will be recollected that this
last named young man was stopped on
the road. robbed, dragged out into the
sagebrush and burned so badly as almost
to defy recognition. His horse was taken
by the convicts, and it is said that this
man Jones was the principal actor in the
fearful tragedy. Jones was chased with
others into Death Valley. and by some
was thought to have persisted there.
Others believed he bad escaped to Arr
zona. and we dimly remember OF hearing
or reading that he had been seen in Texas
since his escape. Now that he is arrested
we may hope to see full justice done,
and, mayhap. learn more about the fate
of the boy Poor. Justice is slow but
very sure.-T Carson Appeal, l6.

Cox Of New York says that the next
Congress is going to make war upon the
system Of Bureaucracy which has been
such q distinguishing feature of admin
istrative policy tor the last few years. 1t
is to be hoped that Cox is correctly ad-
vised as to the intention Of the next
House. The system is Questionable for
many things, principally for two very
weighty reasons. First, that it inevitably
tends to establish centralized power
and deprive the people of the several
States Of the privilege and right Of local
self-government. Second, that it provides
a number of sinecure places for parcel
OF idle and worthless officials, increasing
the patronage of the Government at the
expense OF the people, and debasing the
public service.

The efforts OF the negroes to force
their children into the White Schools has
given rise to an amusing contretemps at
New Orleans. A number of colored girls
were sent to the Grammar Schools when
the white girls revoted at once. A con-
siderable commotion was the result, and
as usual the troops were called on, but
found no enemy to fight but number Of
indignant school girls. We imagine the
officers and men of that detachment
wished themselves anywhere or en- any
service sooner than opposing a bevy Of
school girls. The situation must have
been ludicrous in the extreme.
