REy- f. JACOBS, Congregationalist
pastor IN Chicago, has been dismissed from
the church for what he himself admits is
can iEenrahle habit of lying, amounting
almost TO mania. Had he been dis
covered a few months earlier he might
have been utilized by the radicals in Ore
gon, who tried to get witnesses to swear
that Senator Grover had obtained his
election by bribery. They did get Stiles
and two others to do so, but the center
prise" does not promise to pan out very
handsomely for the rascally trio Stiles
and his eonfederates are under indictment
in the U. S. District Court for perjury,
and on the trial the bottom facts of the
Grover prosecution may be brought out
In that case we expect to hear of conster-
nation IN the radical ranks, and some III
high places VIII probably get their names
very unpleasantly before the people.

her that famine of unexampled severity

secretaries The officials, who represent

mits that our prospects, instead of bright
ening, have during the past few weeks,

physical circumstances are such that even
if We cannot prevent any widespread suf-

much doubt-there can be no doubt that
severe epidemics win follow and complete

THE LABOR QUESTION. -Mr. David A.
Wells, in the July August number OF the
North american Rcrie,c, at page l5G, speak
ing of the labor question, says: ''kirher new
wants have got to be found or created, for
the supplying of which larger field Tor the
employment of labor will be afforded than
now exists, OF else the emigration of labor
from the country, and the formation Of a
permanent pauper class amongus vii begin,
and he continues on page l3i: 'How to Gre
ate this new want, how to find 4 new avenue
for trade or enlarge those already existing,
and how thereby to find or develop new EN-
ployment for the masses, are therefore the
most important questions of the hour that
can occupy the attention of the Statesman,
the Legislator, and the merchant; those
xhdse business is to be educated through
the school or press; those whose mission 1t
is TO teach morality and religion" "

being at one end of his moral pole and
General Butler at the other. He said he
had not looked into that, and could not

ought to be looked into. Ii is not wise,
it is not geienGfic-it is narrow and HID
eral-to sit in newspaper Office and argue
that a system is bad because 1t puts lad
men into Office, and men ii Office ave had
because they are chosen on y had system,
and not look at the men themselves to see
whether they are bad or not, or whether
they are worse than other men. Theory

THE TRADE OF FRANCE-The Official
returns of the trade of France for the first
six months of 1877 have been published
and show sufficiently gratifying condi-
ton of affairs. There is scarcely a change
in the imports, which amount to 1872
63S, 900 francs, rs against 1 ,8O9, Al ,0OO
francs for the corresponding period of
1876, the item of alimentary products
showingth the largest increase, say of Z per
cent. The exports show decrease from
1,77S,714,000 francs TO 1862, ,976, 900
francs, about two-thirds of which Is ac-
counted for by the falling of Of manu-
factured goods-a by no means unfavor-

PoPyL4R ELECTION or SENATORS.
The frequency of charges Of corruption IN
connection with senatorial elections, ana
the evil influence which the aspirations OF
ambitious men have upon the choice OF
members OF the legislature, are apt te can
renewed attention to the impertectlon on
the existing method of choosing United
States senators. The members OF tile
Senate are TO represent the states WHICH
choose them, and care should be taken, III
the mode of their appointment, that tiley
really and truly occupy such Representa-
tive position. 1t was believed by the
trainers of the constitution that TINS oo.
iect could best be secured by means OF
le gislative elections BuG the iegiSia.' lres
which they had in view were very diaer-
ent from fhe like bodies of to-day. Ihey
had also an imperfect conception OF the
influence of parties upon the conduct OF
public affairs. Again, at the time OF tiie
adoption Of the constitution, the dlStiic
system for the election of representatives
was not made obligatory by federal stasuJeS
as is now the case Since certain an
ference In the manner OF eleetnS the
members of the two houses is desirable,
the election of senators by the legislatures
naturally suggested itself. It's, however
clear that the state may act as well and
wisely through the mass Of its voters as
by aid Of the legislature. At this day
there is no good reason Mhy a United
States senator should not be chosen by
the voice of the whole people OF state
III thesame way as governor. Aioreoyer
there are weighty reasons why the legls-
Iatures should be divested of the right Of
eIecting senators. In the coming Gre
gon campaign the election Of legislators
will not turn upon the question whether
the candidates are fit To make laws Tor
the government of the state, but mainly, II
not solely, upon the question how they
viii vote for senator to TO take the placS
of Mitchell. 1t is clear that Legislative
election does not give us better men ior
United States senators than would follow
popular choice. On the contrary, parties
are much more careful in presenting com
petent candidates for high Office to the
people than in selecting them by means OF
a legislative caucus. AT the same time
the usefulness of legislatures is greatly
impaired by their enjoying so important
privilege.

THE True PoLICY.-Abolish all In
dian reservations, treat every Indian as y
subject and not as ward of government,
place troops at convenient points among
the frontier settlements, or what IS better,
place arms within reach of settlers with
ammunition, and under such regulations
that they can always be accessible for use
Immediately in case CT an outbreak. Grant
the Indian the same right TO settle upon
and cultivate and own land the same as
the whiteman. Punish severely the sale
of ammunition to Indians on the frontier.
Compel the Indians to till the land or
starve When the government adopts a
policy something ike the foregoing In
dian wars Will soon cease and millions be
saved to the government annually. There
is no sense III the policy TO make the
whiteman earn his bread by the sweat OF
his brow while the Indian is fed and pet
ted in his laziness upon reservation with
permission 20 90 off at viii and rad upon
settlers and return again his hands reek-
ing with the blood of his victims, and he
received In full fellowship as before by
pensioned agents and heralded TO the
church and the world as good christian
Indian Let the Indian "root hog or die,
like others of the human raee.-Tetter.
Porn parties agree upon one point at
