The members OF the jewish Temple "Eman-
nal" In New York, perhaps the largest ana
most influential Jewish congregation In that
city. have now under consideration q
most important proposition-the opening 81
that temple for worship on Sunday. 1t Is not
nroposed to do away with the services on the
Jewish Sabbath, Saturday, but to have In
addition thereto, q regular Sunday service.
The chief argument In favor Of the change 49,.
that a great many Jews are busy on Saturday
and unable to attend the temple on that day.
On Sunday, however, like the rest OF the pop
ulation, they enjoy holiday and freedom from
all business cares and will, therefore, be bet
ter able to attend service. The Rev. Gustave
Gotthiel. Rabbi Of the Temple, Is earnestly
in favor Of the change When he first pro-
posed it. there was considerable opposition
on the part of his congregation, but great
change of sentiment has come over them and
1t Is now believed that majority OF them
will favor Sunday service. The question
comes up to be passed on In few days.

THE JURORS TEST OATH REPEAL.

correspondent requests us to give MIN
some information regarding the jurors test
oath BILL stating that like great many more
he had eagerly watched the Washington dis
patches every day, expecting to hear OF Its
repeal. nnd now he is told that Thurman Is
holding II back: and further that those who
are suffering under Indictment by the United
States District Court will look to Gibson,
Ellis, Jonas, King and Elan to get them
fair trial
We can assure our correspondent, who signs
himself zone oil the indicted" that our Con-
gressmen have honorabIy and faithfully dis
charged their duties with reference to this
matter. A clause attached to the Legislative,
judiciary and executive appropriation bill re-
peals the jurors test oath law. The legisla-
tive appropriation bill, with the jurors test
oath repeal has already passed the lower
house Of Congress by vote Of 127 81
This measure is now before the Senate, and
Mr.. Thurman, far from holding it buck or
holding back on It, made powerful speech on
Thursday in favor Of the passage OF this
measure. Our Washington dispatches, pub
ished yesterday morning. gave synopsis q
the distinguished Senator's speech. This Is

declared virtually imperative by Justices

lower court was sustained by the United
States Supreme Court, who said that juror
is no more bound to declare his guilt Of the
crime suggested by the question than wit

Supreme Court acknowledged the right Of
this Juror to sit upon case without taking
the test oath.

The Anti Chinese League Of Virginia City.
Nevada has issued proclamation prohibits
ing all members Of that association from
patronizing restaurants where Chinese cooks
are employed. This dictum has placed tho
Nevada restdurdteurs in queer dilemma
The Chinese are the only good cooks IN the
State; If they discharge them they will lose
patrons who like good cooking; II they keep
them they will lose patrons who hate the
heather. The latter seem TO be in the ma
jority In Nevada. for most OF the Monaghan

Jere HARRISON. coiored, appears again be-
fore Congress as claimant for seat In that
body. This is an old trick OF Jere's, by which
he has managed to support himself without
working for number Of years past He con-
tested Shelley's seat before the Forty-fourth
Congress and was awarded the usual $4,000
for the cost OF the contest. Encouraged by
this success, he began another contest before
the present Congress, candidiy confessing
that he did not expect to get in, did not care
TO get In, and only wanted the money. The
audacity with which Jere declares his motives
appears to have walked Congress up to the
absurdity OF this system Of paying contest
ants, and 1t is likely that it will refuse to fol-
low the old custom Of paying men to get up
contests, whether they had any real case or
not

INSURANCE.

A subject which demands the attention Of
the Committee on Taxation is that OF foreign
corporations doing business In this State.
The relations of foreign Insurance COM
panies to the State has been anything but
satisfactory In the past, to the agencies
or to the State Section of act No. AZ of 1871
imposed an annual tax Of per cent upon. the
gross amount OF the premiums earned each
year from policies issued through agencies In
the State.
Section Of act No. IA of 1872 provided that
the companies paying the license Of one thou
sand dollars should be exempt from all other
assessments except those required by section
6 "of this act" Section 6 Of act No. Ia simply
rectes 'that this act shall take effect from
and after its passage" and has no reference
to the subject OF Insurance. and 1T Is quite
evident that the legislative intention was to
exempt the foreign companies from all other
assessments except those required by sec
tion of act No. A of 1871, Under which they
would have been liable fol the per cent upon
gross premiums.
BE- this as 1t may, the State continued to
assess said companies, and the agencies de-
clined to pay, upon the ground that failure
to re-enact section of act No AZ worked a
repeal OF the clause authorizing an assess
| ment.
| The amount involved in this issue Is
SIS, Isl IS, for which suit has been brought by
the State Pending the decision much bitter
ness has arisen on the part of the agencies,
who claim that they advised the companies
that they would only be required to pay the
| license tax, and upon such representations
secured the location of agencies in the State.
In fact, 80 far has this feeling extended, that
we are informed that many or the agencies
decline to pay the usual State license for the
present year.
According to the rolls Of 1877 the assess.
ments payable to the State were from
Sixteen home companies
On capital. ...-..-.....-.-.-..-.... $50. 955 l.
Total s4s e55 I.
Thirty five foreign agencies
On licenses s35 900 on
One per cent on premiums. 1857 e.
Total 643 58T 81
We have gone somewhat into detail upor
this subject for the purpose Of pointing gu
one Of the causes of dsarrangement
OF the finances OF the State, ant
with view of urging upon the Conven
ton the adoption Of some well defined
, principle OF taxation that will remove al
cause OF complaint, or at least not leave room
for the charge that the State is harassins
foreign agencies BY am biguous laws.
We are Of the opinion that all insurance
companies should pay uniform tax upoI
, the amount OF business done by each, and tina
each foreign company or agency transactinl
business In the State should deposit with tn
State securities sufficient to protect the PEG
pie OF the State doing business with them.
