II could not be regulated by statute.
Those who established the Govern
mcut (whilo they threw wide open
the doors OF immigwtion) acted on the
theory that no race OF people could como
10 this country and dominate the Anglo.
Saxon. The right OF local scl-govcrnmcnt
was inviolable. The black man had the
ballot, and he would not wish TO deprive
them OF it, because il was their shield Of
defense. but the people OF the South
should be let alone, aud when such men
as llackworth and Schutzo were spurred
out, they should not bo put back upon
the people. IL he had 10 say how the
race question was TO bc settled, he would

THE FORUM FOR FEBRUARY.-In
the February number of the Forum an
exceedingly important enterprise is
begun. w. S. Lilly. the distinguish
ed essayist and perhaps the ablest OPP
ponent of the application of the evolu-
zionist doctrine to morals, undertakes
to point out that civilization, especial
ly Anglo-SaXon civilization, is suffer
ing from a weakening of the moral
idea and in articles to follow he pro-
poses to show specifically how the
ethical standard has been lowered in
art, in politics, in journalism and in
other important lines of activity.
Judge Alfred Conkling Coke, of the
U. S. District Bench, proposes SIM
pie plan for the relief of the U. S. Su-
preme Court,a planthat requires noim-
portant legislation, but is within the
reach of the court itself. Prof. Henry
Wade Rogers, Dean of the Law De-
partment of the University of Michi-
gan, points out the necessity of new
treaty with Great Britain, the present
one being but legal encouragement
to theft. Other subjects of political
importance discussed in this number
are "Obstacles to Annexation with
Canada" by the Marquis of Lorne !;
"Shall Negro Majorities Ruler" by
Senator Morgan, of Alabama. Ed
ward Atkinson, dealing with several
"Reforms that do not Reform shows
with great fullness of illustration why
he thinks the Henry George land-tax
theory would cause monopoly of
land.
A novelty in the Forum is an article
by Jules Verne. in bis most fanciful
style, describing the life of great
American editor a thousand years
hence. Advertisements will then be
printed on the clouds the newspaper
will be vocal, and subscribers will be
saved the trouble Of reading, by tele-
phone and monograph; reporters
will not only speak to subscribers, but
by the telephone they will also
transmit pictures of objects and scenes
that they describe. The editor will be
the real ruler of the world. and one of
his duties will be to settle information
al quarrels. This fanciful sketch is an
interesting bit of satire. The number

ALBANY, Feb. 5.--At the opening
of the Senate today Rev. s. V.
Leech, Of Saratoga, prayed that the
state might be delivered from the
attack and the influence of the liquor
interest, both in the legislative and
the executive chambers; that the Sab
bath might be held. sacred. that re-
form in the ballot should be institnt-
ed so that the poor might have no
temptations 10 sell their votes and
that the horde OF Immigrants hold
ing the balance ofpower in the cities
might be stopped. There was moth
ing in the prayer that would not DC
endorsed by any orderloving citizen,
bat Senator'S Grady and Murphy felt
that the Democratic party had been
attacked and they denounced the
prayer as an insult to that party and
to the people.
