Small Politics aud Public Buildings.

The President was right in vetoing
the bill providing fox post Office build
ing in Allentown, and he was wrong
in approving a like bill for Lancaster.
The fact that Lancaster has probably
one fourth more population than Allen
town does not affect the marrow OF the
question. The true basis on which TO
make appropriations for public build
ings is to limit them strictly to places
where United States Courts are held or
where custom duties are collected and a
public building is public necessity.
We have been tempted by an over
flowing treasury and the mastery of
small politics in Congress, to disrepu-
table system of Iogrolling in appropri-
ations for unneeded public buildings
and for the improvement OF mudcreeks
and thundergnst mountain streams !;
and because the bad work has succeeded
in the past, il compels every Congress
man to hunt up some creek to slip into
the River aad Haroor bill or some pre-
text for public building appropriation.
1t is all the logical outgrowth OF
overtaxiDg the people by which the
treasury is crowded with millions Of
surplus revenue, and the domination of
small politics that makes a Congress
man plume himself before his consti-
tuents as successful in getting an extra
share OF the surplus swag. Congress
man Hiestsnd banked his contest for a
third nomination on his success in corn
ering 500, 900 for his pecp.e OF the gen
eIal divide of taxes wrung from the
people and not needed by the govern
ment.
Since Lancaster is to have a Post
Office building at double the cost of
rental to the government, there is no
reason why Allentown should be left
out because she is 5000 less in populs-
tion than Lancaster and if Allentown
had one, why not thirty other cities and
towns in the State which are 5000 or
more behind Allentown ? And when
the S 900 and 5000 cities and towns get
their whack. why not the villages of
:, 600 and 5000 ?-and then why not
every cross roads Post Office.
The whole theory is grotesque fallacy
In a government of the people. In
monarchies, the government must at
times be parental, as the people are com
paratively voiceless and thereby helpless;
but here the people are the parent OF
the government, and the whole theory
of q paternal government is a mockery OF
our sovereign citizenship; but while the
PEOPLE are taxed for scores of millions
which the government does not need,
small politics Will ever be tempted 10
pay its political debts and enlarge lis
always doubtful political power, by rob
bling the treasury to expend the money
neediessly among the people who are
robbed TO put il into the treasury.
Small politicians will think and talk
differently sensible. honest men won't.

THE Democratic party is marching
onward to the music of revenue reform,
and State after State, as they hold their
conventions join in the endorsement of
the administration of President Cleve-
land. New York, the pivotal State in
the next election, in which, according
to the Republican papers the Democra-
cy has been divided, by dIssentions past
all healing between the friends of Presi.
dent Cleveland and Governor Hill, Oh
Tuesday last, at their State Convention
held at Albany, set at rest all doubts, as
to the standing OF the Democracy Of the
Empire State. The administration of
President Cleveland was endorsed with
a spontaneous burst of earnestness that
leaves no doubs as to its meaning, and
the report OF the committee on resolu-
tions which was unanimously adopted
warmly endorses the views on tariff re-
form as expressed in the Presidents
newspaper. The resolutions, after men
tloning and commencing the wise
and admirable administration OF public
affairs since the Inauguration of Presi-
dent Cleveland, says:

The River and Harbor Bill.

The $40, ,000, 900 River and Harbor
Bill was bad enough as it passed the
House, but the indications are that the
Senate will make it much worse. Mr..
Cullom insists on an amendment ap-
propriating $500, 900 for the everlasting
Hennepin Canal. 1t does not make
much difference what the size OF AN
appropriation for this scheme is, since
If the work is once begun the Govern
ment will haye to complete it at what
ever cost, or throw away what may have
been expanded on it. Congress is un-
der just as much obligation to buy and
take care of the Erie Canal as il is to
construct and sustain the one in ques-
tiop.
An amendment of an entirely new
and original character has been offered
by Mr.. Bowen, of Colorado. He wants
an appropl iation of $3.50, 600 for expert
ments in irrigs in his
State. The navigation interests in Col
oIado present no especial demands for
money, and Senator Bowen thinks,
probably, that the account might be
nicely balanced in the way designated.
His ideas on what the River and Har-
bor Bill appropriately covers are not as
clear as those OF the Nevada Congress
man who, some years ago, finding no
stream in his State that could possibly
be made navigable, announced his in
tention of getting even through public
building legislation. He did not try to
bring his public buildings under the head
of Rivers and Harbors. 1t is to be
doubted If even the Senate can be in
dnced to utilize the pending bill as an
irrigation measure.
There are other amendments increas-
ing the total appropriation materially.
some of which at least will bs added to
the bill, and the presumption is that
when the Senatorial logroliers have
supplemented the work of those in the
House the result will be strong inyi-
tation for a yeto.-N Y. World

The Tide or Immigration.

Three thousand Italian immigrants
landed in New York one day last week.
and 900 more of other natlonalIties.
The Italians are attracted here by re-
ports OF high wages, and will remain
only long enough to save up a few hun
dred dollars each. The wage question
does not influence tie Irish and Ger
mans to the same extent, as they come
here for permanent homes, and general
ly go West. Irish immigrants do not
linge- about the great cities in as great
proportion as formerly. organizations
existing to encourage and aid them in
engaging in agricultural work.
The immigration authorities in New
York have commenced to exercise
more rigid scrutiny overthe antecedents
of new arrivals. Ten questions are
submitted TO every immigrant covering
name, age, nationality, destionation,
whether married or single, whether pos
sessIng tickets or money, condition Of
health, whether an alien or citizen of
the United States and whether ever an
inmate OF a prison or almshouse. OF
the 4 900 passengers landed one day last
week IA were detained for having ad-
mitted that they had been convicted for
grave crimes In their native country.
Thirty or forty who confessed to having
served sentences for stealing wood and
other forms of petty pilfering were al
lowed to land. Just how MANY Grimm
ais evaded the restrictions by lying will
never be known, but the drsg-net of
questions caught enough fellows of the
kind we don't want in this country to
show that the percentage of criminals
who land on our shores is too great TO
be contemplated with any degree OF
comfort. The inspection on this side
of The ocean should be made more ef-
icient by sitting process on the other
side. in which the services of United
States consuls could be utilized.-Pitts-

A Needed Amendment.

The rumors that the President will
veto the river and harbor bill unless it
is greatly reduced in amount are proba-
by based on the general knowledge of
his character rather than any sp-ciic
information as to his intention. But it
Is OF importance enough to indicate the
long evident necessity of an amendmenc
permitting the veto of sepsIate items in
appropriation bills, just as is done under
the Constitution of the State OF Penn
sylvania- Under the present rule of
National Legislation, the only way in
which the President can defeat the log
rolling jobs that are incorporated in
public building or river and harbor bills
IS TO veto the whole measure and so
Kali the important appropriations with
the snakes. If the constitutional pro-
vision OF Pennsylvania were adopted in
the National Constitution it would not
be necessary either 70 slaughter the good
items in order 10 beat the bad one CT

After Thirty Years.

TOPEKA, Kan, May 15.-William J.
Badger was yesterday arrested by a
United States marshal for q crime alleg-
ed TO have been committed thirty years
ago. In tbs year 1858 Badger WAS ap-
pointed by President Buchanan Indian
agent to the Kukapoo tribe, then occu-
pying the north portion of the territory
of Kansas. He gave large bond, as
was required for the faithful perform
ance of his duties, but all the sureties
are dead. About four years after his sp-
pointment, or after the election of Lincoln
TO the Presidency, he resigned his Office
and made final settlement with the
department at Washington. The
amounts OF payment were not allowed
and the government found S14, 600
which it claimed was enormously allow
ed by the agent. 10 the course of time
suit was brought against Badger, and
Judgment allowed in the sum of $27,-
900. which was the judgment and inter-
est. Badger disappeared and was re-
ported soon after to be dead. He was
never heard from until he returned to
the States, having been il South Amer

The Solid SOuth.

y correspondent of the Altoona Times
writing from Brunswick, Ga, speaking
of the political situation in the South
says:
AS 70 politics the solid South" will be In
line again this year-not because there are
not dissenters from the Democratic party
and Democratic principles, but because of
the sectionslism OF such men as Senator
Sherman, Governor Foraker, Senator In
gals. James G.. Blaine and other leaders of
the Republican party. The bloody shirt,
the untrue partisan statements OF these
leaders as to the question OF "a fair vote and
an honest count" in the South. has saved the
Democratic party from the danger OF losing
the solid South" Prohibition or the Tar

South, would place Virginia, Georgia. Ala

doubtful states next fall The leaders of
the Republican party, blinded either by
Ignorance or their frenzy at the loss OF fede-
raj patronage, or Influenced by their insane

That the same efforts, even to the i'm
proper use Of money, are used South. as they
are in the North, to influence election,
no one will deny. AS to bulI-dozing the
negro, or refusing him the right of the
ballot, some men. including such eminent
Republicans as Governor Bullock, Major
