THE SEAT OF EMPIRE WAS GOING WEST,
With factories IN the West we would become
self-supporting country, as it were, and
thus q surplus Of the working class
would be left East. This fact was recognized,
and to avoid pauperism among the poorer
classes, the capitalist and working people Of
the East looked very favorably upon any plan
to cause an immediate emigration westward.
All thinking people are Of one opinion in
believing such an exodus cannot come too
soon to relieve tho strain in the East.
HOW MINNESOTA IS VIEWED FROM THE FAR
Il Il found our State, remarked the Bishop,
"less known than any State which urges its
claims to secure the emigration, which is
bound to seek the Vest H ffs# Il
t On this subject. Bishop Ireland expressed
no little surprise that the people of the State
should not have done more for their State.
He instanced Kansas as the best advertised
State in the Uniony and that emigration
sought its borders in hosts. In
fact, he summarized his experience
in the East with the assertion that somehow
I all the 2disadv dvantages of Minnesota were
widely known ana none of its advantages

Couxress YESTERDAY.

The Senate yesterday referred Mr..
Vests silver resolution. Mr.. Window
prevented by his objection any action on
the resolution for . final adjournment
and moved the passage of the vetoed
Marshals bill without the rider. The
Democrats unanimously voted to again
attach the rider and then to indefinitely
postpone the bill. Mr.. Chandler made
epe of his Characteristic speeches. The
House listened to personal explanations
dehouncing as false the report Of tar
gain between the President aud Southern
Democrats. 1t rejected by an unanimous
Democratic vote proposition to pass the
Marshals bill without the rider, and voted
to put quinine on the free list The
velo message was read In both Houses,
and both agreed to the bill exempting
canal-boats from enrolment.
: Congress will undoubtedly adjourn
this afternoon and will not be again con-
vened by the President, who was satisfied
by yesterdays votes that the Marshals
bill cannot be passed without the rider.
The Senate resumed consideration Of
the resolution of Vest (Dem.), of Mis-
souri,, that the complete demonstration
of silver and Its restoration to q perfect
equality with gold, both as coin and bull
lion, are demanded alike by the dict ates
of justice and wise craftsmanship, the

Philadelphia. Abner Allison, the color

commit rape upon Emma Boyle, aged
fourteen years, in his dwelling near
Seventh and Alaska streets, on Sunday
afternoon, was published in the GAZETTE
yesterday, was on Monday morning, the
day after the commission of the crime,
taken into Judge Elcock's Court and up
ON entering plea of guilty, was given
the full extent of the law, being sen
fenced to pay $1,000 fine and undergo
An imprisonment of five years in thu
penitentiary. That is not the way the.
do in Delaware. Here Allison woult
have been kept in Jail at the county
expense until November. The tax
payers ought to see to it that change i
effected in this mater, and that crimi
nails be given speedy trial and the pee
pie relieved of the tax consequent upo
their being kept in Jail sometimes fo

Repeating the Duty ON Quinine.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The bill to
remove the duty on quinine, which the
Southern members have been trying to
get through all this session, was finally
passed in the House to-day, under sus-
pension of the rules. General Bingham,
and Messrs. O'Neill, Bayne, and Ward,
of the Pennsylvania delegation, made
strong efforts to defeat the bill, resorting
to every parliamentary tactic to that end.
Finally, however, seeing the utter use
lessness of further opposition, they al
lowed the bill to pass. 1t will go to the
Senate tomorrow but as a single objec-
tion will postpone Its consideration, it is
highly PROBABLE that the bill will, IN this
manner, be defeated for the present
session.

The Republicans propose to raise

of the reasons why the Republicans in
the House opposed enacting a law against
assessing officers for money for politi-
cal purposes. The high salaries are paid
these officers in order that thousands
may be got from them to expend on
elections. There are no Democrats en-
ployed In the Departments.

WHAT DEMoNETIZATIoN is DoING
IN ENGLAND.-The failures of farmers
are becoming alarmingly frequent in
England. In 1870 they numbered 229;
in 1875, 354 in 1876, 4s0; in 1877, All;
in 1873, 8l5; and in the first half of
1870, no fewer than GA. In addition,
the facts are well known that farmers in
many counties are now losing their capi-
tai, that landlords find great difficulty in
reletting at any price, and that the re-
missions Of rents have only met portion
of the difficulty. If the land of England
becomes less and less able to compete
With that of other countries in the growth
of meat and cereal crops. the alteration
In the conditions will have an effect not
only on the persons Immediately con-
,esrned, but on England as whole.

SENATOR D. W. VOORHEES, has been

on the Conkling-Sprague scandal
as follows: Fn

ling-Sprague scandal? Will it irjure

ton in the interest of his party, and
the same bold, aggressive party fight,
and will be it's recognized leader, and
and his power will be as great as it
ever was. My sympathies in the
scandal are altogether with Mrs.
Sprague. / believe that she is a much
Injured lady. Her husband is coll
temptible, drunken, upstart, entitled to
no respect or sympathy whatever. If
any criminality has. existed between
Conkling and Mrs Sprague. which
do not believe, Sprague is more to
blame than any one else. Those who
know the man well will so decide.
The idea OF that fellow locking Mrs.
Sprague up in her room, as the dis.
patches say, is an outrage. There
must be queer laws in Rhode Island 10

BEARING FRUIT.

In discussing another question
few days ago, we repeated the
Scriptural declaration: +" What
soever aman soweth, that shall he
reap" 1t applies at all times and
under all circumstances. The man
Dixon who was forced by a Demo-
cratic mob in@Yazoo county, Mis-
Q few days ago to with
draw from the race for Sheriff
against the regular nominee, and
who, was ssubseauently shot aud
killed 3 BY a heightened bull
dozer, Z who q candidate
for Chancery Court Clerk,
was, three Or four years ago,
bulldozer himself. In fact, it ap-
pears that he was one of the origi-
majors of the shotgun policy. So
efficient, were his services in enforc,
ing the Mississippi plan in 1875 that
his brother Democrats presented
him with afne silver service as q
token Of their appreciation. He
did not dream then that he was
sowing seed from which he would
reap a harvest of persecution and
blood. But he was doing it. He
was setting a ball in motion that
he-couldn't stop, and it finally
crushed his life out of him.
When the shot-gun,the Bowie-knife
and the whip was resorted to then
asa method of persuadipg men to
gotethe Democratic ticket, the hun
dreds of outrages were excused on
the ground that white men could
never consent to be governed by ne.
groes. 1T was done.in the interest
of a "Ehite mans government"
But awhile mans government was
not all that was wanted. Then
Dixon was working in the same har-
ness, side by side with the regular
Democratic organization. lie was
a white man then, and when he
concluded to oppose the regular
Democratic nominee for sheriff of
his county he was still white man.
So it is easy to see that it is gov
ernment5 controlled by machine
Democrats and not a white mans
government that was wanted. In
order to have this, negroes were
a few years ago driven
from their homes and hunted down
and shot like wild beasts, or
whipped and scourged and their
property confscated or destroyed
because they voted the Republican
ticket. Although Dixon was, him.
self, good Democrat, he had the
temerity to run against the regular
nominee. He is first forced to
withdraw from the canvass, and
then shot. His crime was opposition
to Democracy. And this is the legiti-
mate fruits of such policy as was
long ago adopted by the Mississippi
Democracy. It brooks no opposi-
ton from any quarter. In the eyes Of
those who manage politics there,
free speech is an evil that can not
be tolerated, and he who dares to
exercise it must be punished with
death. To say that the people Of
Mississippi have Republican form
| of government s would be to
utter that which is false
It would be a SANDER upon
all possible Republican governments,
