THE REAGAN BILL.

Two years ago John H. Reagan, OF
Texas, introduced bill i'll the House
of Representatives to prevent dscrim-
ination on Interstate railroads. The
bill, after considerable debate, passed
the House and was sent to the Senate.
In. that body it was referred to the
Committee ON Railroads for considera-
ton. That committee conveniently
pigeon-holed it, and nothing more was
heard of the bill in the Senate during
the session of the Forty fifth Congress.
The Legislature Of this State early in
the session, before the corporations
bougat the majority, memorialized the
Senate to pass the bill, and instructed
the Senators from this State to use all
honorable means in their power to bring
the bill before the Senate, and secure
its passage. The Senate paid no attcn-
tion to the memorial, and the bill
never saw the light of day until the ex-
piration of the session of Congress. As
all bills not disposed of during session
of Congress are dead, an attempt is
now being made to resuscitate the Rea-
gan bill. The House Committee on
Railroads has taken it up, and will un-
doubtedly recommend its passage. As
both branches of Congress are now
Democratic, it will probably BECOME a
law, unless Hayes exercises the Veto
power and kills it. Congressman Dag
gett, of this State, is endeavoring to
make some political capital by his adve-
,cacy of the bill, but the facts in rela-
ton to it, are these: The Democratic
House of Representatives of the Forty
fifth Congress passed the bill, and the
Republican Senate of that Congress
pigson-holed it, and prevented it from
becoming law at that session. 1t
may meet the same fate in the present
Congress, both Houses OF which are
Democratic, and the people will have
to wait and see.

an early day, and several prominent
republican papers say there was no
justifying reason for the haste shown,
and it can not but lead to mischief.
The Philadelphia Press, the leadiag Re,
publican paper of Pennsylvania, says:
In the resentment which this act
has caused, some intemperance of
speeeh has been INDUCED. Yet the
iact remains that the Republicans of
the State are amazed and outraged at
tle manifest effort to hasteu the .decis-
ION of grave questions which ought not
to be hastily decided, and which can
not now be as wisely decided as they
could be two months hence. The pre-
texts given to justify this unprecedent-
ed hast, are ptiful aud are unworthy
Il consideration. In no other State has
this precipitancy occurred, and there is
no good reason why Pennsylvania IL :

will vote for Grant or Sherman, as he
may desire.
