PUBLIC LAND GRANTS.
WASHINGTON, May 29.-The House
Committee on Public Lands in its report
submitted to-day accompan5 -ng Mr..
Lewis' joint resolution prohibiting the
Secretary of the Interior from patenting
lands granted to corporations while the
forfeiture of grants are being considered,
says:
THAT it would be highly improper to
take any further steps toward the confr-
nation of any land grants while bills for
their forfeiture are pending in either
branch of Congress does not admit of
question, and no good reason could be
urged why the Secretary of the Interior
should not be armed with an authOrita-
tive declaration from Congress on the
subject. 1t will not only relieve him
from pressure from a party's interest
whose persistent demands await only the
adjournment of this body to be renewed
in full force, but it will protect the
rights of the people and doubtless even
tuate in driving these wealthy corpora
tions into the courts Of the country where
these contests must ultimately be deter
mined. Representative Oates will pre-
pare minority report on the joint reso-
luton.

Interstate Commerce.

The Governor, in his Message, recon-
mends that Congress be earnestly memo
rallied to pass law regulating inter
state commerce; and Senator Sykes, OF
Yesterday, introduced a Memorial or
that subject, which was appropriately
referred. President Arthur, in his Mes
sage to Congress, suggested such legisla
tion; so that an early and urgent ex.
preston ON the part of our Legislature
will be timely. SO far as we can learn,
our Senators and Representatives in
Congress are in accord on this impor,
tant question.
If Congress will pass law regulating
this important matter, especially as ii
affects railroads-fixing fares and ap,
pointing Commission to adjust dis
putes and difficulties, for which no stat.
utes could provide-the vexing and en-
barrassing questions which come up be-
tween the people and the railroads viii
be amicably and satisfactorily settled
Such a law, if equitable, fair and just to
the corporations and the people, defining
the duties and rights of both parties
would be an important guide to State
legislation, and the one being adapted t
the other would insure uniformity oi
rates and practices in operating the en-
tire network of roads in the United
States. Such legislation is one of tbs
imperative necessities of the country
and the sooner it is had the better.

THE Aberdeen Examiner thinks that the
Memphis, Selma & Brunswick Railroad is
in fair way to be pushed on to compile
ton.
But when? Our information obtained
from gentlemen along the line of the
road is directly the reverse of that OBJ
Gained from the Examiner.
Hopes of completing the road to
Holly Springs, so long on hand and so
far advanced, are gloomy, as we learn
from gentlemen in that vicinity.
If Memphis and Holly Springs can
not move the money power to finish a
few miles of railway, so important to
them, the Georgia Pacific may under
take the job and run line straight to
Memphis, and which would run through
a country rich in resources, and which
has no road, and then the connection
with Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and
the Carolinas, and Missouri, Kansas and
the Northwestern States would be CON-
plete.
This proposed line of road was agita'
ted when Memphis and Selma were to
be connected by tortuous route, re
garded by many at the time as unfeas.
ible, but as Columbus, Aberdeen, oEo-
Iona, Pontotoc and Holly Springs were
considered pledged to the early compile
ton of the road the people on the Other
line did not press that route.
There may be something wrong in the
management Of the road which stock
holders might ferret out.

The Duty of England to Ireland

French papers say that in few days
numerous rcprisals against the Englisf
will occur in Ireland to avenge the exc
cution of O'Donnell, and that Irish
revolutionists will burn London, and
American Fenians have studied min
utely the operations to be carried on by
them.
The preiudices of the English peo
pie against Ireland will not yield
until an immense amount of dam
age is done to both countries
John Bull is a stubborn character, and
the Irish people are proverbial for hold
ing on to a principle, and believing they
are an oppressed people, they will never
give up as long as Irish blood flows in
their veins, until their grievances arc
redressed.
The intelligence of the civilized world
is rapidly settling down against England
on the Irish question, in our judgment
and as English and Irish blood flows in
the veins of Americans we can afford tc
be impartial We are impartial, but ouI
svmpathies are with the oppressed, and
where does any people on earth reside
who will fight more earnestly for their
rights than Irishmen?
The problem can be settled, and its
solution would give peace to the couh'
tries involved, and crafty the nations
which the English and Irish ;1habit
alike. Let England give Ireland her
liberties-giye her constitutional gov
ernment and exact reasonable fealty
from her, and it will be rendered.
England has hitherto forced sub,
mission to her demands, but force
is a bad thing with which to rule a
high toned spirited, patriotic people.
English policy with the nations has been
successful, but her able Premier has had
the sagacity to see that the ameliorat:on
of the condition of Ireland is a subjeet
Of deep concern to the civilized world.
England should not take delight in op-
pressing Ireland. She may need her sons
vet to preserve her own throne, when
the nations are convulsed as they were
in the early part of the present century.

CONGRESS.

Congress reconFened On Monday last
after a recess of two weeks, and th,
sFEker having announced the commit
ees, the Presidents Message Aayine
been previously received. both Houses
are ready to resume the business before
them.
Every new Congress IS regarded the
most important of any which has pre-
ceded it. We are Of that class of citi
zens who believe that the present Con
gress has it in its power to render great
services to the country by bringing the
Federal Constitution to the old 'Repub-
/ Iican tack, and administering it as JEFF
erson, Madison, Jackson and Polk did
The present party in power has had the
goyernmentinit in its hands for twenty years,
and it cannot be denied that it has run
riot over the plainest principles of gov
ernment as embodied in the Constitu-
ton and Bill Of Rights. Instead of re-
garding the Constitution as a ligament
to bind us together as the greatest gov
ernmcnt on earth-the palladium Of our
liberties and the sheet anchor Of our
safety at home and abroad, it absolute
~ became to be regarded.and treated by
those who professed to be great states
men as a rope Of sand.
The indications are plain on the po-
liticaI horizon that the true American
citizens are tired of corruptions in gov
crnment. The passions and prejudices
of fpartisans misled by leaders in politics,
are giving way and the election of Con-
greasman in 1888 reversed the majority
in the House Of Representatives, and
now the Democratic party has maiori-
ty Of about sixty in that body,
We set out at the beginning of this ar
ticle to shaw some. of the measures of re-
form, which the people Of this country
expect to he inaugurated at the present
session. We will not be able to do this
at the present time, but we expect TO
follow up the subject from time to time,
that our readers may be kept posted as
to the progress the Democrats are max
ing in Congress.
The Senate is nearly equally balanced,
but a few of its membera supporting the
Republican administration cannot OPP
pose every measure of reform proposed
by the majority in the House at this
particular juncture, when the eyes Of
the nation are upon them, and the Pres
idential election coming on at the close
Of the present session, when the acts of
Congress will be scrutinized by an intel
ligent people.
Congress starts off well-there is no
period in our history when prudence
and caution should characterize every
step the Democrats take. 1t must be
that many blunders have been
committed by Democrats, but they pro-
ceed from errors of the head and not of
the heart. Our own delegation, we
think we can tFust-let wise councils
prevail. Let our own members be a
unit on all questions of policy and re-
form, and their influence will be felt in
the councils of the country. Let them
be assured, they will receive the support
and plaudits of their constituents if |
they lay aside everything but principle. |
