PARLIAMENT meets early in February,
and will find no end of business laid out for
it. Up to December /, aside from all gen
eral and political measures, notice had been
given of intention to apply for 244 private
bills, but as the list includes Al duplicates,
the real total is reduced to 200 Last year,
before December, only 126 independent
measures had been started. Of the 200 to
be asked for, thirty-ive relate to railroads
several of them concerning new lines or ex-
tensions, and the others petitioning for ad-
ditional powers. Among the public meas
ures to be considered will be important
amendments to the rules of the House Of
Commons, bankruptcy bill, aud the cor
rupt practices bill, two or three of these be-
ing relics of the last session. Quite likely
also the English land laws will be brought
up for reform, and the omnipresent Irish
question will play no unimportant part in
the debates and legislation. The Liberal
majority will not feel as easy as it did in the
last session, for in the recent ''by-elections'
the Conservatives have made considerable
gains. After the last general election the
Liberals and Home Rulers had a majority
of 1865 over the Conservatives, but the Liber
ais over the other parties combined, only
46. The upshot of recent events is that the
Home Rulers are quite inclined to go with
the Conservatives against their former allies,
while, besides this disaffection, Conserva-
tive gains in the special elections amount to
twenty votes. Hence, it is apparent, the
loss of a few more seats would seriously en-
barrass the Liberals, even if it did not leave
the Home Rulers actually in possession of
the balance of power.

An Alnhanatical Anecdote.

A B that could G far over the ID with great
E's, allowed SO to do, tried one day to ex-
tract honey from piece of G's, literally
sprinkled with snuff. H-ool Ait-choo sneezed
the bee 81 would sooner be j, and be, as the
poet says, happy, free and X, than try to ex-
tract honey from such snuff" So he buzzed tc
his home--a nice house with an L to it, where
M (his wife) IN all the little bees were taking,
o, such a nice meal from sweet Pl The old
bee arranged his @, and said 'you r a nice
lot, amt you?" One little bee, not seeing the
carcasm, answered, '"S, sirl" This put the
old bee in good humor, and he said he'd take
some I with them; and then he said, "U may
have this W for pin money, If you promise
that you won't go near the cucumber vines.
They'll w upif you touch 'eml" "Give us
an * and Wen PROMISE said the little ones.
"That would be as bad as the cucumbers, -
said the old bee. "Y?' asked the little one
"Pshawl Can't you q? 1t would be doubling

The Utah Contest.

1t is the general belief that neither of the
contestants for the position of delegate from
Utah will be seated, and that new election
will be ordered. This appears to be the
view taken by Congressman Reed and ap-
proved by most sound thinkers. Cannon is
not eligible, for he is not a citizen of the
United States. Therefore he cannot be
seated. His opponent, Campbell, was not
elected, and therefore has no valid claim to
the seat. He offered himself to the voters
of Utah and they rejected him. He is in no
sense their representative. Congress has no
right to admit him because he is monoga-
mist and his antagonist polygamist 1t
may shut out Cannon. 1t cannot properly
throw open its doors to Campbell.
The argument of Governor Murray that
the admission of Campbell will have ga
moral effect on polygamy' is ridiculous in
the extreme. The violation of law and JUS
tice involved in the seating of a man who is
not elected to the position he claims tends
to weaken respect for all law and justice and
to encourage the Mormons in their disregard
of both. The taunt syou're another will
come readily to their lips, and, with consid-
cradle show of honesty they will aver that
they are as law abiding as those who call them
law-breakers. The only difference, they
will urge, between them and their antagon-
lists, is in the particular law disregarded.
1t is probable that, if new election be
ordered by Congress, a Mormon will be re-
turned. That result is to be deplored; but
it is not so deplorable as the injustice OF
giving seat to a man who is not elected.
As long as the majority of the voters of Utah
are polygamists and are favored with terri
toral organization they will send delegate
who sympathizes with their political and re-
ligous and social views. The only remedy
is to deprive them of territorial form of
government or to extirpate polygamy; and
in the way of applying either of these reme-
dies are many difficulties. However, there
ought to be enough wisdom and will in the
national legislature to solve the vexatious
problem and relieve the country from the
disgrace of polygamous community.

FROM the Chicago Railway Age for Janu-
ary 5, we learn that there were foreclosure
sales of railways in the United States during
the past year of twenty-nine different roads,
with an aggregate mileage of 2,617 miles,
and with nominal investment of $51, ,277,-
600 in capital stock and $40, SAC, 300 in bonds,
making total of S127, 500. The past
two or three years have been exceptionally
prosperous for railway enterprises of every
kind, but the old embarrassments of some
roads still fingered, and the roads in ques-
ton had been dragging along under Receiv-
ers, or in some other way staving off tempo
rariIy the inevitable foreclosure. In the
past SIX years 257 roads, with a mileage of
22,924 miles and q nominal capital invest
ment of $1,S63, ,556,00O, have passed from
the hands of the original owners by means
of bankruptcy foreclosure proceedings.
This represents over 20 per cent. of the to-
tai mileage and of the latest reported rail
way capital of the country.

THE statement of our exports and imports
during the six months ending last December
is full of ominous suggestions, for while the
experts have fallen off considerably the i'm
ports have increased. As a consequence of
this double movement the balance of trade
in our favor, which during the last six
months of 1880 amounted to nearly one hun
dred and twenty-five million dollars, fell in
the corresponding period last year to little
over fifty millions. This is not at all salts
factory state of things. 1t shows that we
are beginning to buy more and sell less than
we did, and unfortunately what we buy
adds little to the substantial wealth of the
country. A change in the trade current is
much to be desired.
