the pending measure embodied special

which would prevent a crisis in the

without detrimsnt to the public inter-

Thompson supported the bill, and
said the question Of Temperance vas

would vote for the bill it would result in

TEN celebration of the five hundredth
anniversary of John W. ckliffe's death has
made public an interesting fact not gen.
orally known. 1t is that the great re-
former had a tendency to socialism as
we'll as to religious freedom. He was
the originator of the theory that private
ownership of land is robbery-a theory
that has become a leading tenet of the
modern socialists who follow Henry
George. The latter has assumed the
credit for originating this peculiar doc
trine. That he is not justly entitled to
it, every we'll read person knows. The
publication of Wycklitfe's share in it has
tended to dampen the enthusiasm of TO
celebration. A correspondent of the
London Times bitterly opposed any
mark of respect to his memory on &C.
count of this pernicious doctrine. And
no doubt the English people, who &c
not look with favor On visionary schemes,
have lost a good deal of their admiration
for the ''morning star of reformation" on
this account.

The much-talked-of constitutional
amendment changing and limiting the
tenure of the presidential office is at last
getting into tangible shape. The senate
committee on judiciary, through Mr..
Ingalls,, has reported in favor Of such an
amendment. 1t provides that the term
Of the presidential Office shall be six in
stead of four years, and no president
shall be eligible for reelection. This is
a very cnmmendable proposition. The
reform sentiment Of the country has
demanded some such change for
many years, and it will now become very
popular. Its usefulness is beyond ques-
ton; we have altogether too many cleo
tons in this country. We have scarcely
time to recover from one before another
is upon us. The business interests are
too frequently disturbed and made un.
certain by such contests. One in six
years is often enough for the whole
country to be imbroiled in an election
struggle. To limit the president to one
term would improve the public service
and place the chief executive on an
independence which our presidents sell
dom attain under the present system.

in that metropolis pound the piano from
early morning until late at night, varying
