A Dozen .Jiggcrs'' Apiece,

Now We are beginning to have some
thing like full and satisfactory report

Poor, since by Legislative enactments
the veil Of star chamber meetings has
been rent and reporters are permitted t.

report the bills that are passed The
people will now begin 10 see what be-
comes Of the money they pay in taxes.
There is nothing alarming III the report
Of the bills allowed, though they amount
to a considerable pile Of money in the
long run. Amongst the bills passed only
s7j were paid outright for whisky,
though there may have been consider
ably more covered up in drugs This

including whites and blacks, old and
young, sane and insane, temperate and
Incorporate, would allow seven " iig-

allowance for children, aud temperance

LOUISIANA Is TRAVELLING through a
regular quagmire of political corrup-
ton since the State has been wrested
from Republican rule. The frauds have
been exposed by some OF the leading
Democrats Of the State who yet make
profession Of honesty, amongst them
Congressman John f. Ellis. The 5 tate
is controlled by ring that has pI n
dered and misgovcrned it sAamefuIIy
The press Of the State is, however, wax
ing up to the real condition of things,
and is demanding that the party be
freed from the control of corrupt leaders
and the State administration be cleans
ed. The great difficulty the reformers
will meet with is the fact that to kill
corruption will be to Kill the Democrat
i" party and the average Democrat of
the present day would rather have a
a regular saturnaLia Of corruption and
fraud than to have no Democratic
party

Profanity.

A few mornings ago public officer
shocked 4 uuruber Of bystandors by the
uttcrance Of the most terribi" impreca
tons. He appeared to have little or no
respect for either God or man. II
would have been well if some one had
read the law to him, and in the event
If a repetition Of his Oaths, the penalty
provided for such offence should have
Dctu imposed. 1t is too bad in pri'
vatr citizen to habitually break the @rd
aomuIaudurnt and pubic officer
who does 50, is even less excusable, --
His conduct should be cOrnmcndabIe,
and not reprchcn.ibIr. A reprimand
from those in authority may work a
reformation even if Ibis allusou fails
to do 81. The man v no always has an
oath al his tongue end, deserves a
singing rebuke.

Irishrnen In Council.

The Irish emigrate by the hundred
Thousand to the United States, but they
never lose their distinct nationality.
1t is doubtful if there is a people in the
world who are more attached to their
native country. This being the case, it
cannot be wondered at that although
they become adopted American citi-
zens they entertain strong love for
the country from which they and their
forefathers emigrated. 1t is said that
though Ireland should not be governed
from England, much less should it be
governed from America. This is true,
but it cannot be expected that five mil
lion Irishmen in this country can lose
their identity and remain silent specta-
tors Of injustice and oppression in the
land they left without making some ex-
preston Of sympathy and feeling, and
there is no better way to express that
sympathy than by such convention of
distinctive rish-Americans as is now
being held in Philadelphia. The meet
ing yesterday gives promise of calm
deliberatiou which will be worth much
more than violent denunCiation. Mere
insurrection and riot will receive but
little countenance, though a general
revolution, which is always the right OF
any people, may be encouraged. Were
it not for revolution, there could be no
materially advanced governments. 1t
was revolution that made the United
States free and Independent, and one
of the most powerful nations on the face
of the globe 1t was revolution that
gave a Republican government to
France. 1t was revolution that made
Switzerland free, and it will be revolu-
tion that will give Ireland local Home
Rule, or whatever kind of a government
she may choose for herself The Rubi-
con between England and Ireland has
already been passed by the enlightened
and progressive sentiment of the nine
teenth century. There can be no move
backward without England becoming
more tyranical there can be no move
forward without making Ireland free
and independent.

The New Michigan Senator,

The Hon. Thomas w. Palmer. of Detroit
is q wealthy lumberman who has never filed
any public Office before save that he repre-
scented his city in the State Senate one term.
He has been prominently mentioned in con-
nection with the office of Governor and moth
ing but the rule of second term in connec-
ten with faithful discharge of duties as ap-
piled to Gov. Jerome prevented his nomina
ton last Fall, and it is safe to say that had
he been nominated Michigan would not now
be enjoying the dubious honor of having a
fusion nobody rattling around in the Guber-
material chair. Mr.. Palmer was born in
Detroit in 1880. He received a good Aca-
IDENTICAL education, took a partial course IN
the State University at Ann Arbor. but the
failure of his eyesight compelled him to
leave before completing his course. He
then travelled in Spain and South America.
Returning home, he entered upon his bus
mess career, which he has pursued ever
since. He is a gentleman of genial manners.
wide popularity, and has business connec-
tons in different parts of the State which
aided him materially in the canvass which
he entered vigorously upon at the final break
up of the Ferry campaign. Ii is under
stood that he was the second choice of the
Ferry following. and the next choice after
Stockbrdge. While several men of larger
capacity and greater experience were passed
by, the new Senator, however, will prove
capable, quickly adapting himself to the du-
ties of his high station, discharging them
usefullv to his constituents, and with strict
fidelity to the best interests of the Republi-
can party.

The Tribune says: Insane murderers
are likely to be scarce in California here
after if the proposed new law is adopted.
Its provisions remind one of the darkey's
coon-trap-they are designed to 'cotch"
the animal both "agwine' and acomin'."
If man accused of murder makes plea
of insanity. he is to be examined first on
that point. II the examination declares
him sane. he is then tried for murder.
and his first plea is to count rs an aggra-
walton of his offence. II the examination
declares him to be insane. he is to be sent
to mad house for life and is not to be re
leased unless his sanity at the time of his
crime is established, in which event he is
to be at once put on trial for his crime.
There Is no inducement for a murderer to
plead insanity under law like that I'M
less he prefers life in an insane asylum to
hanging. By pleading not guilty and
standing his trial an accused murderer
might get free on the ground of INSULT
cient evidence. or some other cause; or
he might get off with term of imprison-
ment; but by pleading insanity he accepts
one of two certainties-either to be shut
up for life in an insane asylum or be
hanged"

A Salt Lake correspondent writes the
Chicago Inter Ocean that the Mormons
have Mexico in mind as place of refuge
ifihey are driven from Utah by the govern
ment oppression. The writer asserts that
q tract of land was purchased in Mexico a
year ago, that high church officials have
visited and approved of the selection. and
that the pioneer colonists will be led there
this spring. When the purpose of the
government finds adequate expression. and
polygamy is made practically impossible,
then Mexico may be the retreat for this
persistent, fanatical and undesirable pop
ulaton.
