Mr.. Niles was not always 50 indif.
lerent to the rights Of the people and
the commands Of the constitutions In
deed but two brief year. ago he vas
quite rs great stickler for the con
stitutional mandate on the subject Of
apportionmeut as Governor Pattison
or any democratic member Of the leg
i-lature is now. When the legislative
apportionmcnt bill was before the
house toward the close of 1881, Mr..
Niles arose and delivered the following
pointed and excellent speech
"MR. NILES. Mr.. Speaker: This
bill has been postponed, for some rca.
son or other, until the last days Of the
session; and n far as am concerned,
! do not propose to 90 home until the
bill is passed or an earnest effort j.
made to pass it. ! do not intend, a-
far a. ! am concerned that the people
Of Pennsylvania shall -ay that We
have been 50 many months in session,
ncglccting our constitutional oJhig1'iou
to pass an apportlonmcnt bill which
the constitution says SHALL be pass
ed at the session succeeding every
census. If this bill is postponed, if it
is referred 10 committee, if We -hirk

the state, and the people have a right
to say, that We have done this thing
on purpose to have an extra session
ucxt winter. We ought to meet this
question like men. / want the bills
passed that the constitution -ays
SHALL be passed at thi. session
1t is evident from this speech that
the republican leaders were opposed

The Baltimore Day, while opposed
to the present internal revenue law,
takes the ground occupied by the
Washington Post, to wit, that the reve-
nue. system itself need not be abandon.
ed. 1t thinks that law can be framed
to bring this revenue into the Treas
ury, and be satisfactory to the tax
payer as we'll as just to the Govern
ment; at all events, says the Day, We
think a Democratic President and a
Democratic Congress should have an
opportunity of trying their hand at it.
The Posts plan for collecting the
liquor taxes by sale of stamps from
the Treasury direct will, we believe,
be the basis of a new revenue law.
When we are not compelled to tax the
most common and indispensable ne.
cessities of the poor, we can give up
the internal taxes altogether. But we
cannot let whiskey off while taxing
blankets and undershirts.

+ The New York Tribune thinks that
the Republican party fought not to
60" because the public debt was re.
duced ss,O0O,0O0 last month. Now
let the Tribune show that the Repub.
licans paid the debt themselves--that
the Democrats had no hand in it, and
It will make a case worthy of consi.
deration. But with the present rates
Of taxation, the feat of paying to the
public creditors out of the public
treasury, eight, or even twenty-eight
millions is not remarkable, only so far
as that amount escaped confscation in
its passage to the creditors.
