MI. Hendees bill for the government OF the
District, which will be found in our columns
Today, merits careful reading and consider
alton by all classes OF our rea iers Its an
psrently the Morrill, bill of last session great
~ cut down, the fundamental princip'e g.
Of that bill being retained, and Is a skeleton
framework for government. II provides
That the District shall become a department
N the government OF the United States, with
board OF general control at the head. 10 be
composed of three members. AMI to be desig-
mated Council; that within this Depart.
ment there shall be various bureaus. with a
beard at the head Of each one relating to the
more popular branches OF local affairs as of
education, health, police, &c. These boards
are uniformly 10 be comp1sei OF three men,
bers, TO be appointed by the Council. A due
subordlnation OF all branches to the execu-
tive control is provided for.
There are features we might point to as
Objectionable, for example. the ra1e of taxa
ton and for license tax, the absence of pro-
vision that the appointees shall oe citizens
OF the District, and some others; but such as
occur TO US are all of chsrac ter that can be
amended and modified without affecting the
general features of the bill, which, 1t is
thought, give promise for an economical
form OF government.
This bill will be taken up at an early dav
Tor more extended criticism. Meanwhile,
those who desire TO see our local affairs set
Tied, and especially 10 have the financial
status OF the District adjusted, that a new
departure might take place in this respect,
Will have Informed themselves respecting
The provisions OF this bill, which has at Its
foundation the principle OF fair taxation of
the people, all revenues TO be paid into the
TreaFiry OF the United States and appro.
prlatlons made by Congress for support of
ihe District government as for that of any
other department. of the general gnyarnmanf

The finest political! demonstration
ever made in California was that IN
which the San Francisco Hayes &
Wheeler Inviucibies and Boys in Blue
participated on last Saturday night at
San Jose. They left their hall on that
evening nearly two thousand strong.
AT 10 O'Clock they arrived at San Jose
and were met by delegations from the
Santa Clara county Republican organi-
zations. Among other societies pres
ant we're the Hayes Pioneers of San
Jose. These wore red shakos and an
apron with the American shield upon
u The San Jose Clubs numbered a
thousand men all appropriately uni
formed and bearing torches. In the
procession was q chariot containing a
Goddess Of Liberty and So young Ia
dies representing the States OF the
Union. Rockets, Roman candles and
other fire works along the line OF
march added brilliancy to the scene.
The ladies' of San Jose spread feast
and fed the whole three thousand who
were in the procession upon chickens,
hams, tongues, roast beef etc. They
raised the means to do this by solicit
ing contributions from tho Repubii-
cans of the city. Senator Sargent ad-
dressed the enthusiastic throng.

GENERAL ELECTION DAf
WANTED.

Some few years ago Congress passed
an Act providing for the election OF Con-
gressmen in all the States but few es
pecially excepted ones, on the same day
in November designated al the time for
electing Presidential Electors. Among
the exceptions were Ohio and Indiana.
Each State should do its own choosing
of Representatives, and manage its own
affairs in it's own way. uninterfered-with
by the citizens of its neighboring States.
In order that this might be possible an
universal election day should be set
spart; and ON that day each State
should elect its Governor, it's members
Of Congress aud its Legislature. This
would simplify matters, render colonial
ton comparatively impossible and save
the country from the excitements and
demoralizing effects of so many and
frequent elections. Upon this subject
tho Herald very properly says: I'VE DC
not believe that the Overshadowing In
fiuence OF national ptlitics in State cleo
tons will ever be got rid of. The most
that can be hoped is that it may be
some what mitigatsd and restrained. II
has reached such an excess in this siren
uous canvass in the October States as
ought to convince the country that q
partial remedy is expedient. 1t could
not 60 to snch extreme lengths if all the
State elections were held on the same
day, because, in that case, the politi-
clans OF both parties would find employ
mens ut home. and there would be no
possibility Of conversipg all their efforts
to single focus in one or two States.
We have no doubt that this remedy will
be applied and that all the States will be
forced to come into line and hold their
elections on the same day. Congress
can promote this object by vigorously
insisting that all its members shall be
chosen in November. This Act of 1872
requiring this has caused great strides
toward uniformity within the last four
years, and if a weak exception in favor
of few tardy States had not been made
by the Act Of 1875 the result would have
been already attained. We trust that a.
its next session Congress will repeal the
Act of 1875. The few struggling States
will then have ample time for amend
ing their Constitutions, and if they
choose to forfeit their representation in
Congress it vii! be at their own peril.
