A Long Debate over the Ranking bul-Llt
Ito Other business.
Rev. DR.. NJ. sessler, Rabbi Of the He
brew congregation, made the opening
prayer in the Senate yesterday.
Mr.. McCreery presented Senate bill 81
| to amend Chapter so Of the Acts Of 1877,
concerning licences to sell liquor, and in
iuries by the illegal sale of intoxicants.
Mr.. Byrne, No. So, to regulate the work
ing and proper ventilation of mines.
Mr.. Brown, No. So, concerning teachers
registers.
Mr.. woodward, No. 81, to authorize
county boards OF examiners to issue certi-
iicates for life TO teachers.
Mr.. Switzer, No. s., amending the school
law in relation to teachers.
Mr.. Coburn, No. SO, amending the law
concerning the jurisdiction and powers oil
county courts. 49,,
Tho Senate refused to pass Senate Bill
No. s, to appropriate 5000 for tho con-
struction OF normal school building at
Chenille.
Senate Bill No. l was then taken up by
sections. This bill, introduced by Mr..
Brown, covers one hundred printed pages,
and amends the law concerning the pow
ers and Jurisdiction OF justices OF the
peace and constables. Pending its con-
sideration the hour of o'clock arrived,
and Mr.. Scott demanded the special order,
Senate Bill No. Al, to require banks to
make quarterly reports. On motion OF
Mr.. Scott, a recess OF ten minutes was
taken in order to allow Mr.. ). L. Hlldreth,
who was on the floor OF the Senate Cham.
her, TO make some remarks on behalf OF
the banks OF Wheeling.
Upon rcassembling an amendment Of
fered by Mr.. Dawson tho day before. was
withdrawn. Mr.. Floyd then offered g
substitute for the bill, requiring annual
reports in stated form.
MIR. Byrne pointed out that the original
bill had for It's object furnishing Informs
ton for the Comptroller Of the U. S. Treas.
ury, while tho Substitute merely intended
to keep the people posted. He thought the
incidental good accomplished by Senator
SCOTS bill would BIO great. :.
Mr.. Switzer moved that the bill and
substitute be committed to the Judiciary
Committee, but this meeting with ohjec-
tons be withdrew it. After several other
amendments were proposed Mr.. Smith
made the game motion, substituting the
Committee on Banks, etc.
Thv motion was again rejected, and sew
eral amendments, offered by Mr.. Dawson
and others, were adopted. Each caused
more or less discussion, and the bill was
under consideration for over two hours.
1t was then made the special order for 5
p. NJ. on Saturday, and ordered to be
printed in tho meantime as amended.
On motion OF Mr.. Burgess, the Clerk
was authorized to have any bills printed
which the Judiciary Committee desired
TO have printed.
Some talk was INDUCED In OF an execur
tive session, but before action was taken
the Senate, on motion Of MIR. woodward,
adjourned.

Growing Obsolete. Il

Growing Obsolete. i
Gin. Tae.Sar.
The following extract from the report o
the Detroit Associated Charities will prove
interesting to those who have studied the
question OF keeping the poor and needy IL
Cincinnati:
The city Of New York, with q population
OF ] zoe, 600, has practically abolished out.
door relief. Coal is given to the poor in
the winter months, commencing with Jan.
uary. Twenty thousand dollars only Of
outdoor relief was given last year and that
to the INDECENT blind.
Philadelphia, population $4,000, has
given no outdoor official relief since 1870.
Brooklyn, next in importance as to pop
ulation, was the last city to abolish this
system. It Is claimed that no unusual in
crease in the number admitted into the
work houses and houses OF refuge has re-
suited in either city.
The Associated Charities OF Brooklyn
and Philadelphia assert that this cutting
off Of official outdoor relief has caused no
suffering to the poor in their respective
cities.
We feel bound to repeat the opinion ex-
pressed in our report last year. However
necessary some system Of outdoor relief
may be for tho present, and however
wisely 1t may be administered, 1t lisa con-
slant temptation to the improvident 10
seek aims rather than work, and until it is
very much reduced or abolished, the num-
Der OF this class will continue to increase,
and will be a growing threat to the social
welfare. It Is not the method OF admins
tration SO much as the system itself which
we think at fault. The evil OF pauperism
will he materially checked only by a rigid
curtailment or ultimate abolition OF this
form OF relief. q
