AN UNTENABLE ARGUMENT.

&E
Senator West, In his speech in the
Senate in opposition to the bill to adj
NIT Dakota as q State, contended that
it had not the population to entitle It
to a Representative in Congress, and
that to admit it would, to q certain
extent. be q Acknowledgement of the
States already in the Union by giving
the Territory two representatives in
the United States Senate and one In
the lower house of Congress. If Sen.
ator West represents the prevailing
sentiment among members Of. the
National legislature the prospect for
the immediate admission of Mon
tana or any other Territory az q State
In the Union 10 far from flsttering.
If these essons are sound, the ques-
ton occurs, are not New York, Penn
sylyania, Ohio and other populous
States "disfranchised to q certain ex-
tent" by the presence in the Union
of a dozen States we could mention?
The argument does not commend
itself to the judgment of sensible
men.

Sanitary Matters.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-At a con-
ference of the health officers, Doctors
steinberg, Robe and Raymond, the
committee on d~isinfectants appointed
at the st. Louis convention. presented
an important report on that subject,
in which it is stated that most of the
we'll advertised disinfectants now in
the market were utterly unreliable
and defective. States and cities were
then called in order for . report, stat
ing the sanitary condition and regu-
latlons and what special preparations
were being made in each tending to
resist and restrict the cholera. The
reports, so far as made, gave q brief
sanitary survey of several 8 ates. In
the course of his report for Kentucky,
DR.. Mccormick referred incidentally
tn the epidemic disease recently pre-
vaillng In the mountains OF the east
tern portion of the State, and stated
that q competent medical inspector
had been sent by the State Beard of
Health of Kentucky, to the afflicted
district, to investigate the outbreak.
His (McCormick's) Information in
dicated that in the news so far re-
ceived from that locality there was
some exaggeration ; when he should
receive ! report from the inspector
and should have an analysis made of
the water to which the disease is at
tributed, he would be able to speak
more confidently on the subject.
After receiving reports from ABOUT
States the conference adjourn
ed until tomorrow.

In his annual report Secretary
Chandler admits that frauds were
committed IN his department amount
ing, in one bureau alone accord
ing t" his own estimate, to nearly
$l25,O0o. He does not explain, how
ever, why he wrote that impertinent
letter to Mr.. Hendricks in the be-
ginning of the late campaign, deny
ing the charges to that effect brought
by the latter. Was he ignorant of
the swindles known to all the rest of
the world, or was he anxious to
shield the criminals from exposure
and punishment? In either case Mr..
Chandler occupies an unenviable
position.

PIGIRON.

In summing up the business of the
previous week the Cincinnati En-
guwer says: ut is found to hsve
gone right along in a manner quite
satisfactory to merchants, increasing
a. it progressed. 1t has not been in
specialities alone, but has been gen.
ersl. Hardly q line can be mentioned
that has not been improved, except
pig-iron, which continues sluggish.
That industry is, as a rule, dull at
this q of the year, for foundry
men and other manufacturers don't
care to stock up at the close of the
year"
1t will be conceded these are good
signs but it is questionable whether
bottom has been reached: When
the great iron industry shall begin to
show signs of q new life after the pa
rslysis of two years everybody can
rely upon . revival of all other bust
ness in the North. Pig-iron lie king
of northern manufacturing indus
tries and leads the road to general
prosperity in every department of
trade. Liquidation must atill 60 on,
and so must contamination of the
markets tef.,e perinau. ut
prosperity will begin in earnest.

W E N POSTAGE.

The Postmaster General reports
that the receipts Of the Postal Depart
ment during the fiscal year which
ended with last June were only ST.
1856 less than during the previous
year, although the rate of letter post
age was reduced to two cents on Oc-
tober l. 1883. 1t is now more than q
full year since the change, and the
Indications are that it will ultimately
augment rather than diminish the
postal revenue. The estimates for
the fiscal year are $56, 099. 169 expeDd-
itures, and $5l, 272, $50 receipts max
ing q deficit of $4,s26, 349. The
growth of correspondence is 50 rapid
that the receipts are likely to increase
much faster than the expenses, and
with efficient management the Postal
Department may within q very few
years report a surplus, even after the
of local postage in cities to
one cent. The free delivery cities

All the bOsh with which Mr.. Blaine

feeling of discomfort among the peo-
pie of Iowa, particularly among the
farmers and business men, because of
the freigh rates thatare being charg'

low prices for grain and the great
depression in business. The rates are
kept up as high as during the good
prices for grain last year, while pIac-
