TIE ASSEMBLY ~ THE ROLE or 4
SHOCKING EXAMPLE,"

THE 1SSEHbL1 ~ IHH mum VI "
SHOCKING EXAMPLE"
In the familiar legend lecturer on intcmper-
ance is represented as having been attended by
gentleman addicted to delirlum tremens VINO
came upon the stage at the close OF each lecture
as a Shocking Example. The Assembly in It's
advocacy of the constitutional amendment
pr0yidine for biennial sessions recalls this IN
teresting philanthropic partnership. Having
devoted the first weeks of the session to max
ing a Shocking Example of itself, and thus
having done its best to induce the people to be-
ieve that Legislature was nuisance, IL now
turns around and proposes that every other
year the public dispense with law-maklng
and the consequent opportunity Tor the as
graceful deadlocking which the session OF
1889 has witnessed. Surely if the majority
IN the Assembly had any sense OF the huTDor-
ous they would refrain from touching the
biennial session proposition, realizing, as they
must. that their constituents will greet
their action with the remark: mighty good
. ary1ment in favor of reducing the sessions OF
the Legislature e-half is furnished by yoHr
"own scandalous conduct; indeed, II we sup

= TO he AS derelict in the discharge OF sworn
aduty as You showed yourself during the long
"war which you waged in regard to spolls, we
"might be willing to abandon the legislative
"branch of government altogether"
And yet on second thought, it may be that
the Democrats of the Assembly, having a sense
of the humorous, do realize how droll their
action il, and that, nevertheless, they press the
biennial session project as indicative OF their
sincere repentance of the deadlock. In that
case their support of the measure is to be re-
garded as a unique contribution to the con-
scicrce fund Of the country. We have sug-
gestion which we desire to submit to any mem
Der of the majority who intends to make a
speech in favor of the biennial innovation.

Mr.. Blaine not being lawyer does not have
a fool for his client when he argues his own
case. During single morning he succeeds III
levellng the architectural masses of calumny
and Misrepresentation which his enemies have
been heapng together during a twelvemonth.
He has been accused of usurping the functions
of the Presidential Office and of adopting on his
own responsibility diplomatic policy which
might have plunged the country into war. lie
proves conclusvely that he never acted as
President de facto, and that no step involving
a change of foreign policy was ever taken
without the concurrence of the Executive. He
has been charged with dipping President Gar
field. He shows that they were wholly in ac-
cord in all that related to his Department. He
has been represented as making diplomacy a
Cabinet game of blindman's buff in which all
ewes wore bandages except his own. He cx-
plains that all foreign matters were submitted
to the President rather than to the Cabinet,
that this was the custom in President Lincoln 5
time. and that, during the transition period
when the Administration was without an cli-
Gent head the affairs OF the State Department
remained in statu quo. He has been 1urlously
assailcd for attempting to impose his own will
upon President Arthur and for revising the in
structons to Mr.. Trescot without authority.
He produces the original draft OF the instruc-
tons with the Presidents corrections and
denies that q single word was nterpOlatcd in il
after it had received Executive approval. The
integrity of his course at the State Department
being demonstrated lie plays with little Mr..
Polo Belmont az easily as one brushes buzzlng

Considerable anxiety has prevailed lately in
this city among persons who pay attention to
vital statistics, owing to the apparent rise III
our death-rate. BY comparison OF statistics
tobe found in another column it will be seen
that the increase in the percentage of deaths
should be attributed, not TO an absolutely
greater mortality, but to one relatively greater,
owing to additions to our population not rec
oenized in making up the rate. Ii will DO en-

Why are the anti-Chiuese Senators so rabid as to
insist upon putting the section forDddng Chinese
naturalization back into the bill restricting lmmi-
grafton It is q totally unnecessary insult TO
China. The number of Chinese who will ever wish

other nations make no such offensive distinction,

A Momentous au.stion.

The republicans in congress cannot be too
often reminded that the next house of repre-
sentatives will consent to no law or joint rule
concerning the subject of counting the cleo
toral votes for president and vice president
which does not make that body absolute in
its negative upon any vote which any one of
its members may choose to dispute. There is
at present no statute or rule on the subject
None can be made after the fourth of next
March. Though the democratic can
didate in 1854 should be defeated
never so fairly, the Cronin case of
1S76-'7 shows that in its desperate lust for
power the democratic party will, according
to its opportunity, boldly seize what it cannot
lawfully obtain. Besides this republicans
cannot deny that they themselves gave sane
tion and authority to acts in Louisiana and
South Carolina in 1867, on which were
based the electoral vote, which acts the very
president who thereby secured his place so
distrusted that he could not find in them
sufficient warrant to justify him in guarantee
ing the state governments chosen at the same
time with the electors. We believe he was en-
titled TO the electoral votes, because the only
authorized state returns so declared. But we
believe he was wrong in judging that the
elections in those states went two
ways at the same time, or that
state certifcation was more potent on
a national than on state election return,
But this is digression. We only started to
say that both parties can now better deter
mine what rule shall prevail in the count OF
electoral votes than they can after presiden-
tial election. General principles can he
agreed on to apply to things yet to come and
now unknown better aud easier than they
can be fitted to events that have resulted
from mighty contest for the presidential
succession. There is not in either house now

Pub. Docs,

Speaker Keifer laid before the house yes
terday communication signed by Messrs. j.
G. Ames, superintendent of public documents
for the interior department; A. r. Spoflord,
libriarn of congress; and Spencer f. Baird, of
the Smithsonian institution, relating to the
printing and distribution of public documents
by authority of congress. The report recon-
mends a reduction in the number printed,
especially of pamphlets and their distribu-
ton by one agent instead of three or four, as
now. By the present plan it frequently
occurs that three or four copies of the same
document are sent to the same person. The
report also calls attention TO the number of
surplus documents left over after all regular
orders have been filled. They amount TO a 500
for the sforty-siXth congress. The whole
number of documents for the forty-siXth
congress was 1924 ,254 of which $4,000 were
in bound pamphlets. For the fOrty-seyenth
congress there have already been printed
1,354947, including sixteen volumes of the
census. The report recommends that public
Libraries, congress and universities, shall be
first supplied in the distribution of dOcu-
ments and calls attention to the value of the
Congressional Record for libraries. The system
of parliament is instanced TO show the feasi-
blity of reduction in the number of dOcu-
ments, and bill is presented with the report
the provisions of which are calculated to
secure "a better system in the interests of
economy. 1t is suggested that system of
printing certain pHblic documents for sale,

Donate the schooImosters.

Notwithstanding the fearful statistics con-
cerning illiteracy brought out by the census,
there is an effort to get up discouraging
growl of dissent whenever it is proposed that
the general government ought to assail this
most powerful enemy of free institutions. The
subject is only just beginning to be discussed.
The proposition for aid out of the national
treasury is received with favor except in an
occasional newspaper office where dyspepsia
reigns. The question is asked, however
by those most friendly to the general
idea of national aid for free education, how
can it be done? What can the nation do ex-
cept to feed the school funds in the states
most needing help? And what guarantee can
the giver have that the gift will be wisely
used? These are serious questions The
southern whites are divided ON the question
of giving the negro chance to improve.
This division is not on party line. 1t would
make the very best party line that could be
drawn in that region. Every friend of this
government wants every citizen to have his
rights, including his right to participate in
the elections Every good citizen ought to
consider ignorance among voters as danger
ous political disease. The ignorant voter
must be instructed.
Those who do not intend to finally ex-
tinguish the political rights of the negro will
labor to make his exercise of those rights a
blessing to society instead of curse. The
states have not the resources sufficient for
this great missionary work. They cannot ex-
pect the nation to take the risk of state in
| nuenccs hostile to free schools, If they
are in earnest in advocating national aid
for educational purposes, then they can
Aasily accept that aid upon such conditions

little boy went out to swim,
Aud took a cake Of soap with him,
And slimed each supple little limb
And when he went on the bank above
Que long, last downward look he COVE,
And then into the wafer dove.
And trying to regain the top,
In vain, alas, he tried to flop
He went so fast he couldn't stopl
His limbs were sosped from heel 10 hip
He couldn't get u half way grip
For every time he tried he'd slip.
The water no resistance gave
And SO, beneath the murky wave,
He found a wet, uutimely grave.
With thrilling, laundering, humping thud
lie struck the misty, moisty mud
And turkles fattened on his blood.

To olittle boys Of supple limb
Who soap themselves before they swim.
