The Sessions of Congress.

In their report ON the resolution proposing
a constitutional amendment substituting the
31st OF December for the 4th Of March, as the
commencement and termination of the official
term of members Of the House of Represent
atives, the committee on the election of Pres
ident, Vice President and Representatives in
Congress, have given some very good reasons
for the proposed change. In most OF the
States the Congressman are elected in No.
yember OF every second year Maine is an
exception to the general rule, our elections
for Congressman coming in September in
stead Of November. But the members chosen
in September and November cannot begin
their labors before noon of the 4th of the next
March, because the old Congress does not
expire until that time 1t would be imprac-
ticable for regular session of Congress to
begin on the 4th of March, as it would drag
on through the hot months when people who
can want to get out of Washington.
So the assembling of the new
Congress is put off until December
when the heated term is passed and there is
long winter ahead for work. Thus it hap

THE SHORE LINE.

A Cherryfeld correspondent of the Bangor
Wing writes:
"This section Of country for the past few weeks
has again been agitated by rum0rs claimed to be
based on facts and from good authority that in
the early spring, the Maine Central Railroad Com
pany will break ground for the extension OF the
look is that surveys WIN be started from some
point IN the town of Franklin with terminus at
PASSPORT"
In regard to the above statement General
Manager Payson Tucker said; sit is in
tended to have the proposed Shore Line ex-
tend from Sullivan to Eastport. Surveys
have been made and the cost estimated by a
regular organized company. For some five
years there has been talk of constructing a
shore road but it is not project of the Maine
Central Railroad Company, but of the towns
through which it will pass. Traffic arrange
ments have already been made with the
Maine Central Railroad which will prove Of
great benefit to the road If constructed. 1t
is a road that think ought to be built and
have no doubt that it will be. 1t Will be a
good investment and no doubt the road Will
do a good business. The Maine Central
Railroad has made very generous traffic ar
rangements with the Shore Line Company,
and in consideration of these arrangements
the company is encouraged to build. In my
opinion the road has got to come, but do
not know as it will be begun in the spring
and probably the company itself does not
yet known when operations will be COM
menced."

The Republicans of the Eleventh Michigan
District have a difficult task before them to
elect their candidate to the seat left vacant
by the death of Congressman Moffatt. The
Democratic and Labor parties have united
forces, and are making lively campaign.
Mr.. Seymour, the Republican candidate, is
unfortunately absent in Europe, and cannot
return in time for election. TO ada to the
difficulties of the situation, the snow lies
from three to four feet deep all over the Up
per Peninsular of Michigan, so that many OF
the voters, especially Of the country people,
and lumbermen, cannot go to the polls with
out great difficulty. But Mr.. Seymour
friends are fighters, as was shown in the
convention, and will undoubtedly find way
to get the voters out The Democrats have
often carried elections on whiskey; why
shouldn't the Republicans carry one on
snow shoes?

A statement has been put in circulation In
different parts Of the country, to the effect
that letters mailed in postal cars are put on
the train at the next station SO that the
stamps nlay be cancelled at post office and
not on the train. Such a statement cir
culated about Maine few weeks ago, and
many persons believing it changed their
habit iof mailing letters on the trains and
dropped them into the local post offices. In
due time the story reached Washington, and
the post Office officials began an investiga
ton. They now announce that the reports
were put in circulation by fourth class post
masters who would find their revenue con-
siderably increased if the stamps now cam
celled ON the trains could be cancelled in the
offices. To such tricks are some of Uncle
Sans employees driven to exc out their
scanty salaries. Yet even fourth class post
offices have not been a drug in the spells
market during the lively trading of the last

Last weeks dispatches brought the infor-
nation that Bismarck had yielded to the
Socialists and receded completely from his
attempt to make the laws against them more
stringent. 1t is not reasonable to suppose
that the Chancellor stayed his hand because
or any feelings of mercy. He did it no
doubt for the same reason that he ehumbled
himself before the Pope,-because he felt
that he must When the Socialists carried
the city of Berlin at the election last year,
the circumstance was widely commented
upon as an evidence of the strength OF the
party and the growth of the movement. And,
though Berlin is not Germany any more than
New York city is the United States, the
event was a most significant sign of the
times In Berlin the Socialist vote, which
was over $1,000 In 1878, declined on account
of the natural indignation aroused by the
attempt of Nobling against the life of the
Emperor. to about 10000 in 1881. But this
was merely atemporary recession of the tide,
for last year the Berlin Socialists rolled up
vote Of over $4,000 for their candidates, or
double the vote of ten years ago. Not only
in Berlin are they numerous. In Bavaria,
in Wurtenburg, in Saxony, where Herr
Bebel. the first Socialists leader Of Germany,
has lately used very menacing language, and
in many other places throughout the empire
the Socialists are numerous; and defiant as
well. In fact they are said to number in the
whole Empire round million. A million

them men of ability, education, culture, and
even of wealth, are capable of creating an
immense amount of disturbance. Even Bis
marck would hardly be expected to have the
courage to drive them to desperation by rig
orous laws; and the news that the govern
ment has backed down from its attempt to
pass such laws against them, is not differ
ent news from what might be expected.

The report of the commission which has
been investigating the complaints Of certain
of the settlers of the Madawaska valley has
been placed before the Governor and Coun.
Gil. 1t reveals the existence in the northern
part of our State of degree of Acadian sim
plicity that would delight a poet, but is ex-
tremely perplexing to the authorities of this
State, who wish to unite justice with mercy.
BY theAshburton treaty the rights Of theAca-
dams who had settled on the Upper St John
were carefully guarded. England and the
United States covenanted that all grants
heretofore made by either party should be
confirmed and made valid by the other, that
all possessory titles of six years or
longer standing should be deemeds valid,
and finally that each party should
IDEAL aupon the most liberal principles
of equity with the settlers actually dwelling
upon this territory" The State of Maine
dealt honestly with the simple Acadians,
who were confirmed in possession of their
homesteads by deeds. The settlers who
dwelt on these homesteads were sturdy and
contented, not inclined to be migratory, and
endowed with large families. Just as hap
pens among the small allodial proprietors of
the mother country France, these Acadian
parents divided their real estate among their
children. But as the children were almost as
numerous as the flowers of the wilderness,
there was limit to this subdivision; and
then the populationbroke over the limits Of
the lots secured to their fathers by the pro-
visions of the treaty. Same took up land by
payment in labor on roads. Some took it up
understanding that they were to get title in
some way that perhaps they did not clearly
comprehend and did some work for which
they got no credit in the land Office Being
simple Acadians, with much poetical igno-
rance and little or no practical education,
they did not recognize the necessity of a le-
gal title to their land. They simply entered
to make home for themselves and their
families ON the wild Land, which, to their
moderate comprehension, was as free as the
air or the light, and in most cases they or
their grantees have remained to the present
time. The State, from time to time, sold
these townships to proprietors, and made no
reservations of the rights Of settlers who
had no title or interest, so far as the records
of the Land Office showed. In fact, in many
cases. they had no legal or equitable rights
unless the peculiar circumstances and condi-
ton of these people entitle them to some
special claim to protection from the State.
The Commissioners take the view that these
supplemented settlers should be protected
and have made report to that effect
