Why They Killed Garfield.

A prominent citizen of East Ten
nessee states that, on the way down
from Knoxville, the other morning,
Judge John Baxter made a remark
showing the sentiment entertained
by many Republicans in regard to
the assassination of the late Presi-
dent. The talk was concerning the
fight over the Knoxville Postmaster
ship, and the removal of Rule to
give place to Temple. "Why," said
Judge Baxter, chats what they
killed Garfield for; to put out the
old and put in the new" This
seems to be pretty tight on Houk
and the other stalwarts.

60 One daysan editor, hard at work
trying to -deyise a plan to make de-
/ tlinquent subscribers pay their dues,
twas called upon by a shoemaker,
Ewho dropped in to give the editor
some valuable hints on running a
newspaper. The editor, oveljoyed
at the opportunity, gave the man
| his best cane bottom chair, handed
him a fresh-cigar, nd-listened at
tentively. Quoth the shoemaker,
as he lit the weed: ''Your paper
needs hundred improved features.
You don't grasp, the topics of the
day by the right handle; you don't
set the locals, in the right kind of
type your, telegraph news is too
thin even the paper itself is poorly
manufactured, not thick enough and
too. ehall1y a white. You don't run
enough matter, and what you do
run amt of the right sort. Your
Iideat about protective tariff are in
formally foolish, and your stand on
the Conkling matter was bad, bad.

and, as paper is a public affair,

criticize as anybody. If a man
wants to give me advice, | let him;
I'm glad to have him in fact
"rhat's exactly it, said the editor,
kindly Il always had q dim idea of
my shortcomings, but never had
them SO clearly and convincingly
set forth as by you. 1t is impo6si-
bic to express my gratitude for the
trouble you have taken not only to
find out these facts, but to point
them out also. Some people know
ing all these'things, perhaps, nearly
as Well as you, are mean enough to
keep them to themselves. Your
suggestions come in most appro-
pirate time; [ have wanted some
body to lean on, as it were, for some
weeks. Keep your eye on the pa
per, and when you see Il weak spot
come up"
Z The shoema1cs left, happy to
know that his suggestions had Teen
received with such Christian
spirit Next day, Just as he was
finishing a boot the editor came in.
and, picking up the mate, remarked:
Il want to tell you how that boo
strikes me. In the first place, the
leather is poor; the stitches in the
sole, are too wide apart, and in the
uppers toonear the edge. Those
lppers will go to piecesin two weeks.
It's all wrong, putting poor leather
IN the heels and soothing it over
with grease and hanback,. Every
body complains Of your boots; they
don't last; the legs sre too short,
the toes are too narrow and the in
step too high. How You can have
the gall to charge twelve dollars for
such boots beats me. Now, ] tell
you this as a friend, because | like
to see you succeed. Of course, l
don't lxnowanymore about shoemalI-
ing than you do about newspaper,
but still / take an interst in you be-
cause YOU are so wei disposed to
me. In fact"
Here the cxaperated cobblcr
grabbed a lapstone, and the editor
gained the street, followed by old
knives, pincers, hammers and avis,
sent after him by the wrathful cob
bier, who, ON regaining his seat,
swore- by the nine gods that no i'm

LAST Monday was another field day
in the House at Washington for opening
the hood-gates Of wild extravaganza
and log-rolling jobbery in making ap-
prOpriations of the peoples money for
the erection of public buildings. Bills
were passed aggregating NEARLY two
millions of dollars for building postOfi-
ces at Denver, Detroit, Council Bluffs,
Peoria, Lynchburg and Greensboro in
North Carolina, when Mr. Randall and
other Democrats called a halt and, the
House agreed to stop there for the pre-
sent. When this kind of legislation,
three-fOurths Of which is inexcusable
plunder of the treasury, gets started on
Monday, which is the only day it has
much Of a chance, it is a very difficult
thing to stop it, since it has supporters
from almost every State whose combin-
ed vote is irresistible. 1t is estimated
that it will require at least twenty mil.
lions of dollars to cover bills of this ma
ture, if all the appropriations asked fol
should pass. The only way to put ar
end to such gigantic stealing is to repea
all the internal revenue tax laws, anC
thus prevent large surplus from accu
mulating in the treasury.

IF the constitutiOnality of repudiating
a portion Of the State debt of Virginia
ever gets before the Supreme Court of
the United States, as it most certainly
will if Malone succeeds in his purpose,
what the decision viii be has just been
substantially determined by that Court
in compelling New Orleans to pay four
millions of bonds which had been scaled
or rqadjusted, by an act OF the Louisi-
ana Legislature in 1876. The unani-
nous opinion of the Court was summed
up as follows: "LegislatiOn of a State
thus impairing the obligation of con-
tract made under its authority is null
and void, and the Courts, in enforcing
the contract, Will pursue the same
course and apply the same remedies as
though such invalid legislation had
never existed" Certain holders of ViT-
ginia bonds which have been scaled
by MahOne's Legislature have now, as
we remember, a suit on the way to the
Supreme Court, which will be covered
by the decision above quoted.

THE contest for the seat of Congress
man Chalmers, of Mississippi, was end
ed on Saturday last by the admi ssion of
Lynch, the colored contestent Chal-
mers. according to the returns, received
a majority of 3, 779 votes, but the Re-
publican Committee on lections, by q
process peculiarly their own, arrived at
the conclusion that Lynch was elected
by majority of 375. The theory of the
Committee seems to have been that
Lynch lived in district largely COM
posed of negroes, and therefore Repub-
licans. and tnat if he wasn't successful
he should have been. Gen. Chalmers
has now been elected to Congress three
times in succession, and each time he
has been charged by the Northern
Republican press with having really
| beeusdefeated, and of occupying a'seat
| to which another had been elected, just
/ as Hayes for four years occupied Til
/ denis place without any complaint from
/ these same organs of the 'God and NOR
alityn party, Chalmers has always de-
MED the truth of the charge, and if the
/ Vieksburg district has not been chang,
/ ed let Lynch and Chalmers try it over
next November, and that will end the
/ long controversy.

THE new anti-Chinese bill, which
passed the House soon after the Presi-
sident vetoed the first bill, passed the
Senate on Friday last by a vote of %
yeas to - nays, eighteen Senators, nine
in favor of its passage and nine opposed
to it. being paired. The fifteen votes
against the bill were all given by Repub-
licans, and the thirty-twO in its favor
were all cast by Democrats, with the
exception of the four votes of the Re
publican Senators from Colorado, Cali
tornia and Nevada, and four votes of
Republican Senators from other-States.
The only substantial difference, if it is
substantial, between this bill and the
vetoed bill, is that the last one suspends
Chinese immigration for period of ten
years, instead of twenty. as provided
for in the original measure. There are
conflicting opinions at Washington as to
whether Mr.. Arthur will approve the
bill or kill it with another veto, On the
day before the bill passed the Senate an
anti-Chinese convention was held in San
Francisco and a scheme adopted to di.
vide the Pacific coast into districts,
which shall be notified to remove the
Chinese within a specified time, and on
failure to do so the district shall be pro.
claimed dangerous. If they are still
harbored in the district. the anti-Chi.
/ nese League will then proceed to remove
| them by force until the country is rid
CT them. However desiTous the people
| of California may be to clear that State
of its present Chinese inhabitants. il
must be remembered that they landed
I there under the solemn sanction of the
weH-known BUrlingame treaty between
| this country and China, and that any
| attempt to expel them in the manner
/ proposed would involve those who un
/ dertake it in very serious difficulties.
