REPRESENTATIVE TowNsHEND, of Illinois,
who has introduced bill cutting
down the diplomatic service of the
government, said recently that he was
assured of support from both parties,
and he had hoped the bill would pass.
He proposes to abolish the first and
second class foreign missions and let
diplomatic business be done direct by
cable and mail through resident con-
suls. He argues that, with increased
facilities for the transmission of intel
ligence there is no longer need of this
expensive diplomatic machinery; and
the Russian and English missions have
been vacant several months, saving
the Treasury over one hundred dollars
day, yet diplomatic business be-
tween the governments is not in the
least interrupted.

THERE seems to be an increasing sen
timent throughout the State in favor
of the taxation of church property,
and touching upon this point in his
recent annual message Governor
Smith says: "The question. also, as
to the policy or right of the State to
exempt any, except public property,
from taxation, is being agitated in va
rious sections of the State, and the
arguments adduced in favor of making
every class of property contribute
equally to the support of the govern
ment which protects it, are worthy of
your most considerable attention.

IL discussing the question of the as
sessment of property Gov. Smith says
it is. much to be regretted that assess
ments cannot be obtained, as the law
requires, upon the basis of actual val
ne, and thus show the real ratio of
taxation, and he also expresses a will
ingness to cheerfully cooperate with
the legislature in any measure looking
to the correction of the evils incident
to the present system of assessment.

BECAUSE of the frequency with which
murders of the most revolving kind
have occurred in Rock county the
past two years the people thereof,
through their. representatives in the
legislature, will demand the restora-
ton of capital punishment In this
State, and humanitarians will be on
hand to protest against the adoption
of such measure. While we do not
advocate the gallows as a punishment
for the crime of murder we are unable
to resist the conviction that justice is
not dealt out impartially. There is
no good reason why one man should
be sent to prison for comparatively
light offense while another who robs
hundreds Of poor people of the savings
of lifetime is permitted to escape
punishment.

"OUR LIBERTY IN DANGER" is
the alarming head to a long editorial
in yesterdays Republican Surround
cd as Delaware is by great Republi-
san States, with Republican Presi-
dent and Republican L. S. Court to
see that no man is deprived of his
liberty or rights without "due process
of law" our citizens might be sup
posed to be in no immediate danger of
losing their liberty, Now, We're Grant
in the Presidential chair, and took the
time to read the Republican yesterday,
troops might be expected to visit our
State very shortly. Our readers, how
ever, know what weight to give to the
Repubticdn's bloody shirt" diatribes,
and will not be very much alarmed at
its crocodile tears over the risk of
securing the assessment of a few
negroes by the Levy Court.
The copious extracts from the Repub-
"edn OF last August which we pub
lished yesterday, ought to satisfy
every one of the falsity of all that
paper said yesterday, and, therefore,
we make no further reply to its stupid
and useless assertions about "our
liberties in danger" and the charge
that "thotroD heel of despotism is grind
ing them into the dust" That will
pass current anywhere for Hersey-
ism, of which any decent Republican
might blush with shame.

THE managers Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railway Company, following the
example of Mr.. Vanderbilt and the
New York Central and Hudson River
Railway, have advanced the wages Of
their employees 10 per cent. On the
principle that prevention is better
than cure, this is by far the better
mode of treating the question of
strikes. This method should be more
generally adopted, not only by our
great corporate employers of labor, but
by large firms and by individuals.
