EDITORIAL COMMENT.

New YORK, Dec. 3.-The Post edi-
torially says: "The presidents meg-
sage of last December gave the coun-
try surprise by. its boldness, and
the present will do hardly less. II
that portion of the message which
treats OF communism of capital gives
a shock to the capitalistic class il is
precisely what they need"
The Commercial AdcertiSer Inde-
pendent) says: The message is a
notable state paper, and will profita-
bly, direct popular thought, and, if
congress is not wholly given over to
mere partisan wrangling it will aid in
securing wise legislation in the next
congress.
The N0u and ErpreSs says: "On
the whole we think most Americans
will be glad as. they read this mes.
sage that it is the last one which will
emanate from the present chief mag
istrate."
An editorial in the ECening sun
(Dem.) says: "The second session of
the fiftieth congress met at noon 10
day to explain how it got bounced by
the American people. The prisoner
at the bar said that American justice
was more honest than eloquent. God
has given him a good constitution
and sense, instead which you go
about the country stealing ducks,
alas, for any congress that has u good
chance and wastes it by stoning
ducks, or chasing rainbows, or con-
ducting an educational campaign"

there is not the least bit of political

what the south wanted, the veteran
laughingly replied: "The south wants

anything else, good, honest and

TWO IMPORTANT MEASURES.

Congressman Turner's bill to amend
the homestead law so rs to require
but three years residence instead Of
five, in order to proof and patent, and
to allow six months absence from Il
claim upon permit of the register
and receiver OF the land Office, are
two very timely and sensible provi-
siOns, the adoption of which will ena-
BILE settlers in tie new counties, where
the contingencies Of settlement are
numerous and at times dlscouraging
to more easily acquire title These
special privileges to those who are
willing to 60 upon public lands, will
be an additional inducement to take
the chances involved in the somewhat
hazardous and trying experiment of
settling the sections of country still
open to entry; and, in view of the
peculiar circumstances surrounding
such cases, they are not, in our opin-
ion, at all unreasonable. Whether
these bills will pass remains to be
seen. The chances are against their
passage, for the reason that the i'm
preston obtains with the dominant
party, that there should be a restric-
ton rather than an extension of the
privileges to those contemplating the
settlement of the public domain. The
attempt, however, of Congressman
Turner, to modify the conditions of
settlement, is evidence that he has the
interests of his constituency at heart,
and is wisely exerting himself to Sc
cure for them needed legislative aid.
