The issues in Congress are now plain
ly defined, the Democrats in Congress
having agreed upon . revolutionary
programme. 1t has been decided in
the Democratic caucus by large ma
iority to attach tho repeal Of the fedsr-
al election laws to the appropriation
bills and in that shape to compel the
President to sign them or TO do without
money with which to carry on the
government. Mr.. Bayard opposed the
programme, but the extreme sx rebel

a majority Of the Democrats in Congress
were bent upon sxtrsms measures, and
even Bayard had to take back seat,
and lamblike will submit to Bourbon
dictation and vote solidly with his par.

and to preserve the purity Of elections is

tion bills with the repeal Of the election
laws attached, he will have money u
pay the expenses Of the government,
but he will at the same time open wide
the gates Of political corruption, and
tear away every protection to Al hon

The lottery bill - was anticipated In
tho letter Of eur Dover correspondeutin In
RsrusucAs,vss completely
squslohed out BY tho action Of the house
on the uniavorsble report Of the CON-
nittss yesterday. We stated in our
editorial Of yesterday, that il remained
for the members Of the Legislature to
show by their action and their votes,
II they had been correctly measured by
the New York lottery men In their
Efforts to buy up the Legislature whole
sale. In the vote on the adoption Of the
report OF the committee, there were
four members who leaned smilingly 10.
wards the lottery men, one Of them be-
ing Mr.. Conway from Kent who intro.
dused the bill, and the other three
Messrs. Dean, Doran and Riggs from
New Castle county. The strangest
thing about the whole transaction is
sha. Mr. Dean should bs found appar-
emily in favor Of lotteries. 1t is true
that $4,000 for Delaware College was
3 very big temptation, but nobody sus-
pected that = member Of tho Legisla-
turs who would not even accept free
ticket from the Railroad company dur
inS the session Of the Legislature, for
fear il might be looked upon a. com
promise, would BE- placed in posi-
tioa in which his actions indicated that
he favored this infamous lottery scheme
1t may be possible that tho White Clay
Creek msmt ,r is really honestly in fav'
or Of lotteries, and II he Is, he acted
honestly in voting ss he did, but as he
is locked upon as the reform leader o.
the House, some people will hardly
know how to reconcile his present posi-
ton on the lottery bill with his otheI
actions Ia favor Of reform, economy
and good morals.

Of bills that have been passed by the
present Legislature, the session ia more

shsull have. .besu passed and are Al
LEVIED 70 slumber In the pigeon holss
Of tho clerks desk. Amossst these are
the petitions asking for change sf the
law in the qualification Of voters at the
city election. Large numbers Of our
citizens have pstitionsd the Legislature
10 return 70 tho old msde, which allow
ID only those who paid . city tax to
vote At tho city election for nunioipal
officers. A casual thought would be
suiiieieAt to convince any person Of or
dinary intelligence that this would be
right. The State has no interest what
ever in the government Of the city, SO
far a. its finances are concsrned-in-
deed the two are wide apart in their
interests, and there is no jast reason
why people who live in the city and
who always vote At the municipal elcc-
,isns should not 10 made to share 3
part Of the financial burthsns OF the
city. Not long ago Mr.. Payntsr declsr.
on on the floor Of Council that the float
ing debt Of the oity Vas cau'sd princl-
paliy by the failure 10 collect the
city taxes and Mr.. Payntsr might far
thsr have said very trushfully that the
failure 10 collect was because the pay
uent ofa city tax was not required a.
. right to vots At tho city elections.
As the law now is, only those who
pay . State and County tax can vote
for Mayor or City Councilmen. A man
coming to Wilmington from Kent or
Sussex County, and having paid the
pAltry sum Of 1S or 30 cents state and
County tax in those Counties, can vote
in this city. while these who have
lived here Tor years and paid city
tax, never less than two dollars, eau
act vote at our city elections because
, they had not paid the State tar, ant
the reason they had not paid il, is be
cause they had been disfranchised AIN
had no tax to pay. A correspondent
in to-eay's REPUBLICAN complains tina
the Legislature has taken no action o.

from this city signed alike by Rspubll

IL Y1IouIA and other Southern States

In VrIouIA and other Southern States
hanging is still executed in public
where all who have u desire - do SO

n.nsd Patrick Smith aud Julius Chris

were hung at New Kent Court House,
Virginia, for tho murder Of John G. La

auences which public executions have
upon tho public we have but to quote
the following from = despatch to the
New York "Timss:" From tho Court
House they were driven to the place OF
execution, several hundred yards dis
tant, where they were received with
exscrations and curses from the whites,
who preponderated in numbers"
We only refer to tho circumstance, to
show ths little value which is placed
upon human life in the south. Sc
hardened do some Southern communi

The Democrats arc all the time
preaching economy and reform, and
vet two Of the officers just elected by
the United States Senate have been
guilty Of crimes in their respective
States. Bright, elected Ssrgeant-at-
Arms and Dosrkeeper Of the Senate, is
son Of Jesse D. Bright, Of Indiana,
expelled from the Senate daring the
rebellion for treason, when he went
over to the Southern Confsderacy. The
younger Bright, just elected to an ofics
In the Senate, was in 1869 State printer
of Indiana, in which he is said to have
made oath to bills for State work on
which warrants were drawn on the
State Treasury and paid to him, in
which he alleged the use of more paper
than could possibly have been worked
of. The next year an investigation Of
the State printing vouchers was set on
foot BY private individuals, and on the
basis Of the results Of this investigation
he WAS indicted for perjury, in swear
ing both to the amount Of work done
and the amount of papsr on hand. Az
tor . bitterly contested trial he WAS &c
quilted on what Was generally oonsid-
cred = purely technical point. Pending
the trial Of the cause he purchased and
turned over to tho state largo amount
OF paper, which vas received and stored
away on Sunday, and this fact Of hav-
ing the paper on hand was ased by the
defense on the trial.
The story about Burch, jsst elected
Secretary, is a. damaging against him.
1t is said that in 1873 = man named
Hobbs held tho position Of Controller Of
the State Of Tennessee. Shortly after
his election, Hobbs resigned, and Burch
secured tho appointment from the Gov
-srnor to ill the VACANCY. This 10 the
only way he could have secured tn,
Office. During his short term Of ofict
two years-Burch acquired . larg'
fortune. 1t has been charged that h
made this in manipulating State bonds
10 notorious was the fact that larg
sums of money were made by this Off
cial manipulation that an investigation
was ordered by the Legislature, an
the fact was brought out that 1890
was paid 10 Hobbs to resign 10 ths
Burch could be appointed. 1t was OIL
last winter, hardly six weeks ago, thu
there was another investigation I'M
the manipulation Of these same bond
1t is said that many Of the Senators al
snarting under the deception practice
by these two men, and it is not At a
unlikely yet that they may he calle
to an account for what they have don
before they are allowed to bring sti
further scandal upon the party. 1t
very certain that it is much easier fl
the Democracy to elect dishonest tha
honest men to Office, and in this il
stance especially they have been unfo
tunate in their selection. Tho Dem
srats of the House had trouble wit
two door keepers whom they had elec
cd, but the trouble was for mistak
which they made after they were elee
ed to office, and not for fraudule

gives 1,3l4, ,512, ,0so to square rod, and
to square foot. Suppose square
