The Russian Gear has issued a mnnifes-
to giving notice of his coronation at Mos.
COW ON the 9th of May, and command
ing the attendance of the nobility and
high officials of the empire. With The
publication of this decree comes another
dissolving all the secret societies in Russia
"a document presumably based upon
the claims of the Russian police that
Nihilism had been destroyed. II is a.
serted that the Gear has deferred his
coronation not from motives OF fear. but
only that his first energies might be aiye
en- to the suppression of the conspiracy
by which his father fell. Believing this
to be accomplished, and having passed
his period of mourning, he appears
again in society and publicly announces
the programme of his movements. Color
is given to this theory by the statement
of the London Times that the revolution
ary storm has subsidized, at least for the
present, that St. Petersburg has resumed
its normal appearance and that the royal
palace ia open to guests. On the other
hand, dispatches state that upon the an
OF his coronation the Gar
received fresh declaration Of Nihilist,c
intentions in the shape of q warning
printed on fine vellum, and conveyed to
his private apartments in such way as to
preclude detection. 1t is significant that
before his assassination the father Of the
present Czar received similar potifica.

of which were printed on silk. The

that reforms must come first.
and will be satisfied with nothing else.
The events of the next four months will
show how far the Czar is in accord with

EATLED no CONCUR.

The failure of the house to concur in
the report of the committee Of cOufer-
cncc on the senate and house railroad
bills is somewhat disheartenIng 10 the
advocates Of railroad legislation, and is,
no doubt, a source of congratulaLIon TO
the carrying corporations of the state.
The dead-lock between the two houses
is especially unfortunate, coming as il
does thus late in the session. and II now
looks as If all the time and Ia
Dor which have been expended
on the most important measure
before the legislature will fall short OF
accomplishing the desired end OF just
and feasible railroad legislation. II is
not all likely that within the short time
which remains Of the present session q
practical adjustment of the differences
between the house and senate on this
question can be accomplished, and il
remains 10 be seen whether an extra
session will bc called by Governor
Click for the purpose of further con-
sideration of this vital ques-
ton. The Tecalcitrant mem
bers Of the Twentieth legisla-
tive may rctArd, but they cannot fore
stall, the enactment of law which will
hold the railroads amenable to the poo
pic for their business methods and teach
them that the public have rights which
they are bound to respect The failure
To pass such a measure now will make
the railroad question an issue in Kansas
in 1884. and if the present Republican
legislature provides for this condition Of
affairs by obstinately disregarding th'
demands of its constituency, there will
be greater surprise in store for the
dominant party in two years from nov
than there was last fall.

PATTI AND THE PRESIDENT.
We do not know that the country will
be disposed to extend much sympathy
10 President Arthur, who recently placed
himself in position 10 be Outragcously
snubbed by Nine. Patti, the celebrated
prima donna. During that lady's recent
visit to Washington q reception was
given in her honor at the White House,
and she not only showed herself so rude
as 10 fail TO be present, but manifested
the objectionable lack of grace of with
holding her formal regrets until after
the party was over. Divested of her
professional emincnce Nine. Patti,
would, in view of her late scandalous
domestic complications find the doors
of society elFectually closed against her,
and the president, to put 1t mildly,
certainly assumed great
liberty when he honored q woman of
her questionable record by an invitation
TO meet the most distinguished ladies Of
the land at the executive mansion. The
presence OF Nine. Patti on such an coca
sion would doubtless have been distaste-
full to the American people and il is safe
to say that they will be fully satisfied
with the diva's dlscourteous failure to
be in attendance. This, however, does
not relieve Nine. Patti from the imputa-
ton of having committed a shocking
breach OF etiquette, though it may serve
as lesson to those Americans who pos
sess an unfortunate weakness for toady-
ing to foreign celebrities.

We quite agree with the Topeka Com
monWealth In the view that a long step
would be taken in reforming the polI-
tics Of Kansas by the passage of house
bill No. ss4, introduced by Mr. Tim
mons, and Of which The following is the
text:
An act TO prohibit public officers from
accepting or using passes or other free
transportation over railroads, and 10
prohibit the issuance Of s1ch passes or
other free transportation by railroad
officers or others, and To punish all per
sons violating this act.
Be q enacted By the legislature IF the

any pass or other evidence OF

or offer 10 use, any such pass or other

more than five hundred dollars for each

him, and may be removed therefrom by

Robert X. Porter, member of the late
Tariff Commission, who is writing some
interesting and valuable letters to the
New York Tribune concerning "Indus-
trial England" declares that the wages
received by the workmen in the great
ship-yards on the Clyde are one hundred
per cent less than those received by the
same class Of workmen in the United
States. UnskIlled workmen receive on
an average $3.50 per week, while the
average wages per year of wOrkmen,
skilled and unskilled, is $312.50. Mr..
Porter was on the ground himself, and
gathered these figures from the veritable
pay rolls, so that he does not guess al it,
but states the plain facts. He also ascer-
tanned from the most reliable sources
that at least 35 per cent of the English
sailors were foreigners, chiefly East In
dians, employed because they will slaye
for $3.50 per month, and live on rice
This is not an inviting picture.

Commonwealth: We have long letter
from q member of the house who says
Governor Click does not want railroad
legislation this winter, and is really the
head and front or the leader of those ad-
vocating extreme measures; that Con-
gresham Anderson's immediate friends
are opposed to the passage OF any bill,
this session, for the reason that they hope
to make the transportation question q
hobby upon which to elect Mr.. Ander.
son to the senate two years hence; and
that . number of the most pronounced
advocates Of the house railroad bill want
the legislature TO fail so that they will
have a chance TO come back next session.
Our correspondent, who Is Republi.
can, must know that the people OF
the state want fair rail-
road measure passed this
winter; and he should also know that q
failure on the part OF republicans to
comply with the demands of the people
will place the hide of the republican
party ON the fence at the next election.
However the responsibility is now with
republican members OF the legislature.
