A Motto Separation scheme.

The subject of colonizing the negroes OIL

of Kansas. will present to the senate a.
an early day a memorial elnDIa0i"7

sentative negroes, who compose Uhe seP"-

applv their own municipal and local laws,
and it charges that many negroes are
still held in a state OF practical
slavery in the Indian Ierrl-
tory. Arkansas, Mississippi and otner
Southern States. 1t concludes by praying
that esthe United States, out of plethorlc
treasury that the colored people nave
helped to fill, donate sufhclent suosis-
tence and removal fund, and from us vast
domain. set apart Oklahoma and adJolh-
ing lands for exclusive settlement by the
coIored race" The leader in this move
ment is one John W. Niles, who is called
the apostle of the Colored Indemnity party
IF Arkansas. 1t is said that Niles mas
also written to the Mexican Minister at
Washington asking if the Mexican
Government would offer any inducements
to the colored people to settle IN sonora
and Southern California.
It would seem hardly necessary 10 us
cuss this colored Utopian scheme in Sc
rious manner. but the idea of separation
is being actively agitated by designing
men throughout many portions OF the
country. and while il is not at all hkely
that the government will be misled i'll the
near future into giving it any encourage
ment and support, the aSitators mlsrep-
resent the true condition OF the negroes
and any scheme that is calculated 10 Gre
ate a spirit of discomfort and an unset
tied feeling among them, is likely 10 40
them incalculable harm.
The negroes are obtaining farms ana
homes of their own all over the South,
and where they are not under the control
of corrupt political leaders, are doing
very well. 1t would probably be the best
for the South that the negroes should be
removed, for then the political problems
involved in their presence would be per-
manentlv settled, and the country would
soon be filled with industrious and enter
prsing people from the North, who will
not now come here to compete with ne
gro labor. The immense cost of removal,
and the practical difficulties in the way
of its accomplishment will cause TINS
great scheme to tall flat, even if the elo-
queut Senator from Kansas. should
cbampion it with all his power and in
fuence. The scheme is too chimerical
from whatever position it is viewed to re-
auire discussion of the points involved
in it, as being likely to become prominent
questions before the country.

The crowded condition and prison-like
aspect Of asylums have, no doubt, a de-
pressing effect on certain classes Of luna
tics. 1t is proposed at the Pittsburgh,
Pa, asylum to inaugurate the cottage
plan for the treatment of the insane. BY
this means the patients will be divided
into congenial groups as much as posi-
BILE, and their surroundings Will be made
home-like and agreeable. They will be
relieved of all unnecessary restraints and
allowed ample facilities for amusement
and exercise. There can be little doubt
of the favorable results of this plan of
treatment as compared with the best of
the old systems. When the Georgia asy-
lum is again enlarged would it not be
we'll to try the cottage plan? No patient
in an asylum ought to be made to feel like
prisoner, unless personal restraint is an
absolute necessity.

There is a fine prospect for an impeach-

session of Congress. Formal charges
were presented to the House Monday
against Chief Justice Saml. b. AXtell, of
the Supreme Court of New Mexico. He
is charged not only with gross ignorance
oflaw. but with corrupt practices. 1t is
said, among other things, that in one case
he granted a divorce to a woman on her
mere ex parte statement, and that he ap-
pointed an irresponsible receiver to a large
estate without requiring bond. If the
charges are sustained by evidence the
House will present articles Of impeach-
ment, and the case will be turned over to
the Senate for trial.

How the Morrison Bill is viewed.

How the Morrison Bill Is NlS"Ou'
A variety of opinions respecting the
Morrison tariff bill is expressed Dy the
nress. The New York Herald says that
sit PROMISES to reduce duties, to modify
many If the most eXorbitant features OF
the tariff. TO favor our manufacturers by
giving them cheap raw materials, ana Is
at least a step in the right direction" Inc
New York Times says that it sis an hon
est, simple, practical attempt to relieve
the people of burdens which rest on every
industry, every trade, every household
and individual in the land" The Phila-
delphia Press says ut is wanton, bung-
ling and uncalled-for attack on the bust
ness interests of the country" The Phlla-
delphia Times SAYS Mr.. MOrrisOn's pain
fullt elaborated measure is likely to
prove boomerang to himself ana ms
party rather than a blessing" Inc
opinions of these four leading journals OF
the two largest cities Of the country ma!
be taken as a very fair sample oil press
opinions in other cities. The Tunes and
Herald. Of New York, have words Of
praise for the BILL The Times and Press,
Of Philadelphia, have words of cOndemna-
ton for il. The Herald and the Philadel-
phia Times are Independent papers with
Democratic leanings, and the New York
Times and Philadelphia Press are RepuD-
lican papers, the former favoring tarln
reform and the latter protection NO
tariff bill could be framed that would give
satisfaction to the Press. 1t is prepared
to condemn any bill, because it doesn't
want the tariff disturbed. In its eyes any
attempt TO reduce the tariff is an I'M
calIed.for and wanton attack on the
business interests of the country
The manufacturers have its en-
tire sympathy. 1t hasn't
word to say for farmers and
the poor people of the country. 1t admits
that the government is collecting from the
people 800, 100000 a year more than IS
necessary for the expenses OF the govern
ment. and it wants to continue to impose
this burden on them for the benefit, as it
suppOses, of the manufacturers. As Its
party isn't in power in Congress, how
ever, aud is not responsible for this unnec-
essarY taxation, it can afford, perhaps, 10
insist that it shall be continued. The
Democratic party is responsible and must
find way to get rid of this surplus reve-
nue.. The Morrison bill Will get rid of
some of it, and when the business inter-
ests Of the country adjust themselves to
its changes there viii probably be another
horizontal reduction and a further en-
largement of the free list. BY such easy
stages will a revenue tariff be reached.
The unnecessary burdens of the people
will be removed, and the business inter
ests will not suffer any serious shocks.
