4 BILL has been introduced int,
the Indiana Legislature, which
Notwithstanding the fact that tits al
innovation and new to the spiri
of our laws, contains all the Gle
ments of a good and wise law. I
provides that marriages o
drunkards and persons suf
/ ferirg with transmissable dis
eases shall be prohibited. a lit
tie reflection will SLOW that if it can
be properly enforced, it should be
the law of the whole land.
It is a known fact that children
of drunken parents are, as a rule,
of deformed or feeble body, dis
posed to disease, and with weak
intellects, depraved instincts, and
almost unconquerable disposition to
vice. They are the rank and file
of our criminal classes and paupers,
and are unceasing drlins upon
the treasury Of society. Their
children are sin nearer the
animal in mind and body;
and it is from this class that those
phenomenal criminals which ever
now and then are brought to the
attention of the public, and who
seem to be so utterly devoid of any
thing even approaching a knowl-
edge of right and wrong, and in
whom conscience Is not to be found,
are taken. They are often only
one remove from the brute, and are
incidentally below many a savage
in everything hat goes to constitute
true manhood.
Of marriages Of persons with
transmissable diseases it is need
less to say anything. The re-
suits are only too well known and
are daily paraded On our streets in
the form of nideors, mis-shapen, de-
formed caricaturas Of man; and in
those suffering from maladies that
can not be cured and which will
blight the lives that God intended
should be noble and useful, and
bring them to an early grave.

were referring to Democratic
leaders, and we concluded by
saying, in substance, that moth
ing but rigid party discipline
would accomplish their ends.
1t will be seen that the Tribune
left out Of its extract that portion
of the last sentence which we have
printed in italics, and which sustains
our denial that we had ever charged
that even a majority of the Demo
cratic party in Tennessee are repu
diationists. We distinctly said
that nothing but rigid party dis
cipline would commit the "other
sections: of the State to repudia-
ton. The reader can easily see
that the Tribune has deliberately,
premeditatedly, and Tilfully misrep~
resented our position.
Now, after such wiIful misrepre-
sentation, what becomes of the lofty
assumptions of superior virtue In
puff of morality, with the milk OF
human kindness spouting from his
heart, this modern Pecksniff Vaunt-
ingly proclaims that be has "no
taste for journalistic buzzardism
whatever that may be), but he
shows q remarkable taste for jour
nalistic Baron Muuchausenism. Our
manner of denouncing reputation
lists as Ssrobbe-s'' may be open to
criticism, but We would Q hundred
times rather be guilty Of using such
language toward such characters
than to be guilty Of falsehood by
SURPRISING the truth, in order to
make a point against our antagonist
in a controversy where We could not
sustain oursaT by stating PLAIN
facts.
The Tribune says it desires no
controversy with State credit
paper. Neithel DO we. We re-
cognize the strength of the repUdia-
ton party in our State, and that it
will take the combined efforts of all
the friends Of State credit of both
political parties to save the State
from dishonor and disgrace. But
we trust that our contemporary,
when it undertakes to discuss our I
methods, will confne itself to the |
truth, and not attempt to create
prejudice against US by misrepre>
senting facts about which there
need be no question.

WASHINGTON.


Washington, Jan. 28.-The time for
the discussion of the Chinese immigra-
tion bill in the house was limited by
arrangement of the democratic caucus
to one hour, and Willis gave one half
Of his hour to Townsend, Of New
York, the only republican known to
be willing to speak against the bill.
The purpose of these tactics was to
obtain for the democrats the largest
possible apparent credit for the bills
passage. Townsend declined to share
his time with any republican except
Page, and yielded only five minutes to
him, during which Page argued mainly
to show that the bill did not in fact
contravene the Burlingame treaty, as
the latter provided in its fifth section
for the restricting of immigration on
either side to certain specified purposes,
and that the Chinese immigration
against which the bill legislates is not
immigration in the true sense. Town
send made an earnest but somewhat
rambling speech arguing that cheap
labor is desirable. That the Chinese
are valuable to the country and that the
crusade against them is simply a repe-
tition of the efforts made a few Years
ago to exclude or discourage the immi-
grafton of Irish and Germans. He
also claimed that it is the outerowth of
the same spirit which in past ages in
cited the persecution of the Jews in
Europe. His speech throughout was
based mon the brotherhood of man
and sentiment, and he induleed in
many sarcastic references to the story
of Kill Nye and the beatbern Cb;nee
Luttrell made a five minutes speech
devoted mainly to an ATTEMPT to show
that the republican party had obstruct-
ed legislation on this subject by refus-
ing to adopt the amendment offered by
him to an appropriation bill to prohibit
the employment Of Chinese in navy
yards. He did not state that this was
ruled out because it was new leqisla-
tiou and inadmissable under the rules
Of the house.
