Secretary Sherman declares in favor OF small
bonds,-as low in amount as ten dollars,-but
thinks the rate OF interest should be per cent.
instead of 81, as proposed by Mr.. Fernando
Wood, or 3.65, which has been warmly urged in
other quarters He does not think bond at
either OF the latter rates would be taken at par
to any considerable extent, and particularly
does he not favor the 3.65 rate. The advantage
claimed for this rate Is that it represents an
earning of one cent per day on 500; but Mr..
Sherman points out that the advantages Of this
rate have been greatly Over-rated, and that its
disadvantages have been entirely overlooked.
On account of the computation In minute frac-
lions necessary TO reach the result, he thinks it
would he almost impossible to calculate and
pay the quarterly Interest on $40 bond. for ex-
ample, and that it would be difficult to do so
even on bond OF the denomination OF $50 On
the other hand, an interest of per cent. repre-
sents quarterly earning of one cent on every
dollar OF any amount, which is easily calculated
and paid, and which can be readily done or un-
derstood by any one possessed of the simplest
education. For these reasons as well as be-
cause he believes that that is the lowest figure
at which loan can be placed at par, he fayors
the four per cent. in preference to the other two
rates proposed

The frequent demands of Congressional inves-
tigating committees, during the past several
years, for Geographic correspondence have had
the effect of determining the Western Union
Telegraph Company to ask Congress to pass
law to 'preserve kilograms from unreasonable
search and seizure" and place them upon the
same footing as letters sent by mail. A bill for
this purpose has been introduced in the Senate,
and it is receiving very general support, espe-
cially from the press. The telegraph company
and its officers and agents have resisted, as far
as the laws would bear them out demands for
messages sent and received by its patrons, but
In the end they have invariably been compelled
to produce them. The only interest the telegraph
companies have in the bill is to protect their pa
irons. The telegraph has come into such general
use that it is employed equally as much as the
mails in the transaction OF private business, and
the same reasons that prompt a person TO
wish to keep the contents OF his letters from
the public are applicable as to kilograms. There
is some opposition In Congress to the enactment
OF such law, on the ground that kilograms
might be necessary, upon occasions to expose
dishonesty, and perhaps fasten crime upon the
guilty. But this objection might be obviated
by providing for the delivery Of kilograms to
courts, or Congressional committees only when
there is priIaa Jacie evidence that they would
tend to expose wrong-doing.

The republicans in Maine carried things with
a rush when they did begin to move. They per-
mitted the fusionists to play at government for
few days, and then, in one afternoon took
possession OF the legislative and executive de-
partmentS. without the least show of dis
turbance. The people generally, of all classes,
accepted the opinions OF the Supreme Court, as
the proper Interpretation of the questions
involved, and that substantially ended the con-
troyerSy. The fuSiOniSt Legislature" may, per-
hapS WILL assemble once or twice more and
probably governor Smith will recommend an
appeal tC Congress, but that will never be done.
The fusionist government (so-called) has scarcely
any support outside the few vino compose it.
Its assumed authority will either be ignored or
laughed at, and the legitimate government will
set the state machinery in proper shape and
proceed TO perform its functions. Had the
republicans sought to establish their authority
by force or violence they might have lost their
cause. But they adopted an orderly, legal
course and strengthened themselves with the
people every day. 1t was this support of the
populace which enabled them to so quietly and
efectually take possession of the reins of gov
eminent. Politicians may learn a useful lesson
from this Maine imbroglio If they will They
may learn that the masses of the people believe
in honesty and justice in politics as well as in
business. They can be counted upon to con-
denim usurpation of power and political trickery
whenever they have an opportunity to express
themselves.

The Bayard resolution having been reported
back from the finance committee is now before
the Senate, and the great discussion on finan-
ces, which is impending, may break forth any
day. This discussion will continue for some
days, perhaps. Is 1t is known that a number of
Senators spent the holiday recess in preparing
themselves to take part in 1t. Senators Bayard
and Morrill, will take the lead In favoring the
repeal of the legal-tender quality of greenbacks,
and both republicans and democrats will op-
pose them and advocate what has been defined
as the Neutrality-suspicious. policy. The dis
cussion will bring out many valuable facts
about finance, and will be very interesting. even
II it does not lead to any change In the govern
ment currency.

The committee on education and labor OF the
House of Representatives have ordered that a
bill to restrict Chinese inning 'ation be reported
back fayorably. This bill is substantially, per-
hapS identically, the same in its pro visions as
the one passed by the last Congress and vetoed
by President Hayes. The members OF Congress
from the Pacific states are unanimously in
favor of the bill. The question Of politics does
not enter into their support of this measure,
and they unheSitatingly declare that no party
can receive an electoral vote from the states
they represent that opposes this bill. The
newspapers OF these states, without regard to
party, reiterate this declaration and in the face
Of a presidential election, it is easy to realize
hoT much influence this announcement
will have upon Congress. The states
of California, Nevada and oregon have twelve
electoral votes, more than enough In a tolerably
close contest to decide the choice of President.
The unanimity with which the bill was favored
In committee may certainly be regarded as some
indication of the sentiment of the House. There
are now In Washington number of prominent
and influential men, members OF both political
parties, from the Pacific coast who are doing
all In their power to obtain the passage Of this
bill The indications are that 1t will pass the
House, but Senators are not so free In express
ing themselves upon pending measures as Rep
fesentativeS, and therefore it is next to impos-
S1ble to predict its fate in that body. Enough
has been developed however, to show that the
old fight over the Chinese question Is about to
be renewed, and it will wax very warm before
ii Is over.

An arrest was made in Chicago,
Thursday, by an officer OF the Govern.

promises to lead to some interesting
developments. The party in limbo
gave his name as James b. DOYLE, is
described as being OF tlorid complexion,
aged about fcrty.eight years, and OF pre-.
possessing appearance, and on search
ing his pockets, preparatory to locking
him up, some $4,000 in United States
bonds and treasury notes were found.
The case appears to be pretty well mix
ed, and additional particulars will be
awaited with interest. The Western
railroad war came to an end yesterday
afternoon, and the regular passenger
rates have been restored. A London
