ALvoRD's unjust and unfair Apportion-
ment bill was passed yesterday by the Senate
II swindlcs the people out Of representation in
the Legislature 10 which they are entitled. and
which is guaranteed by the Constitution. 1t
retains for the Republicans undeserved par
tisan advantages. to preserve which they
have violated their oaths OF office. No
palmer instructions are given in the Constitu-
ton than those on this subject. The Legislature
is TO reapportion the State rs nearly ns may be
in accordance with the number u inhabitants.
Mr.. ALyoRD's bill does nothing Of the sort. On
the contrary. II gives an excess Of representa-
ton 10 those rural districts that are strongly Re-
publican. and directly the reverse 10 those in
the great cities that are as distinctively Demo-
cratic. Tho bill is fraud ON the people Of New
York and Brooklyn.
The first vote upon II yesterday revealed that
it hod not the necessary constitutional major
,y. But Mrssrs. HOPKINS and LIpPIrT were
drummed up. and the bill WIS pushed through.
Having already passed the Assembly, without n
dissenting Republican vote. ii now awaits the
Governors action.
Gov. ROBINSON should veto this act. Then. II

| the excellent bill introduced by Mr. HALLIDAY,

The Law should be Changed.

The opinion OF Judge SAWYER, OF the
United States Circuit Court for California,
denying the application of Chinaman to
bc naturali1ed, shows very clearly that, as
the laws now stand, no Turk, no Tartar, no
Malay, no Monaghan, no Japanese and no
Chinaman can become citizen Of the
United States. Only white persons, or, as
Judge SAWYER CONSTITUTES II, only persons OF
Caucasian race, or, as modern ethnology
puts II, persons Of Aryan race born In for
egn countries, can be admitted to the priv
ilcges of American citizenship. The only
exception to this is found in Africans or
their descendants. negroes or mulattoes.
No doubt this is the law but its intrinsic
absurdity Is evident. Why should we admit
n negro to become n citizen and exclude a
japanese. Most negroes are exceedingly
ignorant and uncultivated. Taking the
great mass Of those In Africa, they are the
most ignorant ana debased people in the
world, while the Japanese. on the other
hand are among the most cultivated, artis-
tic, and amiable. The same is true of we'll
educated Cinnamon. Judge SAWYER lays
down good law, but very poor sense.

Tho IIoLAHAN Excise bill Is dead. 1t re-
ceivcd in the Assembly one vote only more than

Senate Judiciary Committee reported II unfa-
vorably. Tho Senate agreed to the adverse re-
port 18 to 10. and on rccunsiderlng tho vote

This probably Ia the final effort OF thus Legis-

element which is unusually strong In Albany
this session, has fought pcrsistcntly against
any new legislation, saying that they
are satisfied with the existing law Of
1857. which limits tho granting OF H.
c"nses to keepers Of hotels. inns. or
