The Presidency Of the Senate


The contest over the organization of the
Senate has excited very little interest,
though in dearth of other news the papers
have given considerable space to it. 1t was
generally felt that the proper thing for the
Democrats to do was to admit the Senators
elect before proceeding to the choice Of
President pro tempore, and as generally ex-
pected that they would not do it. The
selection Of Mr. Bayard was. not a surprise,
aud really does not constitute much of
grievance. By rights all the States should
have had voice in the selection; but no
one who has studied the history of the
Democratic party for these latter years
looked to see them surrender an apparent
political advantage because 1t was wrong
full advantage. Whatever arm has been
Republicans have majority of the Senate,
for in that case they can easily depose Mr..
Bayard. If they have not majority they
have no claim to the presidency Of the
body. In any event there is no need of bor-
rowing trouble: The prospect of vacancy
In the Presidential office is, happily, OF the
slightest, and it is a relief to know that pro-
vision has been made to fill that vacancy in
case it does occur. Most men will admit
thatit is better to have Democrat like
Bayard in the line Of succession than to
have the line broken and the country ex-
posed to the novel perils of an interregnum.
The only danger to be feared is that the de-
sire for change of political control may
induce some fanatic or knave to do away
with President Arthur. But that danger is
of the remotest It's difficult to believe
that the most bigoted Democratic zealot will
resort to assassination with the spectacle
before him of the loathing and adherence

OPIUM consumption in this country is in
creasing at an alarming rate. 1t is estimat-
ed that 1000 Americans at least are victims
to the baleful habit of opium smoking,
while over 10000 Chinese in the country pur-
sue the same vicious practice. The use of
opium in other forms, however, far exceeds
this. The Importation of opium in 1880
was 77,196 pounds, an increase of 1900

pure blooded Parisians. I say the people

probably from a curious back-voods
