OPINIONS OF rrHE ESsAGE.

The message of the President is
the topic of favorable comment in
political circles at Washington. The
older members speak of it as one Of
the ablest messages which has ema~
mated from the Executive for many
years. The Speaker regards it as
the basis oS a line of administrative
policy upon which the party can
harmoniously act, and is in itself a
wise exposition of the Republican
doctrines of government. General
Henderson says that those portions
which more directly interest the
people will be most cordially APP
proved, especially those portions
which relate toliberal appropriations
for rivers and harbors and for the
recognition of the soldiers of the
late war. Major Mckinley IS very
enthusiastic in his approval of the
economic features of the message.
The leading men in the Pennsylva-
MIA delegation are pleased with the
Presidents $ Recommendation respect
ing tariff legislation, the building of
additional ships for the navy and
the establishment of closer relations
with Central and South America by
the encouragement of lines Of steam
ers with the ports of those countries.
Senator Quay said that the mes
sage would make a magnificent cam
paign document aud should be placed
in the hands of every Republican
voter in the United States The
President was highly complimented
by his more intimate Senatorial
friends upon the stHtesmanship dis
played in his first annual communi-
cation to Congress. Congressman
Henry p. Cheatman, of North Caro-,
lima, the only colored member OF
the House cf Representatives,, is
highly pleased with that portion
bearing ON the civil and political
rights of the colored people. "The
President" he said "shows himself
to be the fImest friend to my
people who has set in the Executive
chair since it was filled by General
Grant. The dissatisfied colored
element, which has been pretty
noisy of late, will now vanish like a
mist before the rising sun. On the
negro question President Harrison
is pure gold and solid to the center, "

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS-.
Forecast of tbe Probable work
The Lost Salaries.

WASHINGTON, Dec, 8.-The re-
cent defalcation in the Sergeant-at-
Arms office, and the consequent loss
or inconvenience of many Congress-
men, have been the engrossing ques-
tions of interest around the House
of Representatives during the past
few days, and little thought has
been given to the course Of business
in the coming week. IF the COM
mittee investigating the defalcation
completes its work in season to make
a report to the Honse tomorrow, it
will undoubtedly give rise to much
discussion but the committee does
not expect to be able to finish its
labors until some later day. 1t is
thought that resolutions will be
introduced and pressed to prompt
passage, to provide for the payment
Of the lost salaries, though there are
intimations that this will meet with
determined opposition.
COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS.
The Committee on Rules has not
yet held a meeting, and when the
House assemblies Tomorrow it will
governed parliamentary practice.
In former years it was the custom
to permit Representatives to intro
duce bills before the committees
were appointed, but this led to such
confusion in the docking of measur-
es that in the Fiftieth Congress the
practice was discontinued, and it is
hardly probable that it will be re-
established. There is reason to be-
lieve that instead of waiting as usu-
ally to complete the entire list,
Speaker Reed will announce several
Of the more important committees
this week. In fact he has indicated
to one or two members ofthe House
strong probability that he will do
so. Until these are announced,
Sullivan republican. [volume] (Laporte, Pa.) 1883-1896, 1889-12-13

however, short sessions and long
receases may be expected.
Wednesday at the Capitol will be
devoted to the program of exercises
commemorative of the Centennial
celebration Of the inauguration Of
George Washington.
IN THE SEN ATE.
It is not expected that any bust
ness Of importance will be completed
in the Senate this week. Bills will
be introduced and referred, and
some of the committees viii begin
their regular work. Senator Noor-
hees will probably call up his resolu-
ton this week in accordance with
the notice given at the. time it was
introduced, declaring in favor OF
tariff reform, and make a speech in
support of it. Action will probably
be taken upon the nominations sent
in by the President last week. These
number 1873; all are recent appoint
ments, except that of Judge Brewer,
to be an Associated Justice of the
Supreme Court. The holiday recess
question will probably come up this
week for settlement. 1t IS believed
on the Senate side that the recess
will begin December 10 and end
January 6th.-h'c.

This question is asked by John J.
Wickham III the current issue of the
Pittsburg LegaJ Journal. The
writer is president judge of the
court Of Beaver County, and speak
ing from lis own observation and
knowledge he declares that there
are too many lawyers and that the
result of this excessive supply is The
impoverishing of the profession,
taking it altogether, and the multi
plication Of shysters whose base
instincts and impulses are intcnsi-
fed by the increasing difficulty OF
making an honest living at the bar.
This prompts them to create bust
ness for themselves by promoting
and proloneing litigation and re-
sorting to every despicable form of
professional knayery.
David Dudley Field, addressing a
wider forum, takes substantially the
same view. In his address before
the American Bar Association he
gives the number of lawyers in the
United States as 10000, or one to
every 900 Of the population, while
France hes only one lawyer to 4762
of its population and Germany one
to 6433. The business Of turning
out lawyers has clearly been over
done. The profession has great at
fractions for ambitious youths.
They are filled with hope and a
laudable spirit of emulation by the
substantial rewards and high honors
gained by the few and the best
known, succeed. Then, too the
most direct gateway to public life is
through the bar. 1t gives aspirans
greater opportunities than any
other to show their metal and win a
political support, while its duties
and demands tend 10 develop the
gifts most requisite for success in
deliberative bodies. There will al
ways be, therefore, a large body of
candidates for the legal profession
and as long as admission is as easy
as it is now the profession will be
crowded.
Such warnings from the bench as
Judge Wickham has just given is q
real kindness to those who are still
weighing in their minds what cal
ling to adopt. That there is plenty
of room at the top is maxim which
is responsible for a great deal Of
misery. There is room at the top
because so few are able to get there,
ana the newly admitted lawyer
must know that his place is at the
bottom, where competition is keen
est and the fierce struggle for eX-
istence consigns all but the fittest to
life of comparative poverty
Judge Wicllham proposes to make
admission to the bar moro difficult
by adding to the requirements and
the years of preparation. His
structures apply to the bar in nearly
every state, certainly in every East
ern state, where according to un-
contradicted testimony, the number
of LAWYERS has increased undulv, is
still increasing, and ought to be
diminished, not simply for the sake
Of the lawyers, but because the pub
lie would be better served by a
smaller number having a higher
average capacity and learning.-E@.

THAT LIQUOR LAW AMENDMENT.
The First Case Tried Under What Is
 the QiSclQSure Act.

The First Case Tried Under What Is
 Known as tho Disclosure Act.
 Every saloon proprietor, every individ- ual who is liable to arrive in the police court for Sunday drunkenness, and all others who take a lively interest in the liquor business, will have food for refec- tion in this law passed by the last legisla- ture:
 Section | On the trial of any person prosecuted for intoxication, if he shall be found guilty, it shall be the duty of the prosecuting officer to request him to dis close, under oath, when, where, how and from whom he procured the liquor by which his intoxication was pro- duced and if the accused shall make such disclosure, the same shall not be used against him on any prosecution but if he refuse to make such disclosure, it shall be the duty of the magistrate before whom such trial is had to commit the accused for contempt of court to the common jail for not less than ten nor more than thirty days; if the accused shall be guilty of false swearing in making such disclosure, ii shall be perjury
 Sec. 2. The disclosure, so given, as aforesaid, shall be taken down in writing by said magistrate or his clerk, and certi. fled by said magistrate or clerk, and for warded to the states attorney for the county where such trial is had.
 The first case under the new law came before the police court this morning Daniel Bergin pleaded guilty to drunken ness and was about to be sentenced wher Clerk Webster asked him where he got his liquor. Bergin said he drank in place on Scovill street, but that he didn't know the keepers name. He was sente need tC thirty days in the town house.

Opium and Crirno.

In the East 1t is said to be liquor which creates criminal class. The people of San Francisco, however, dread the opium habit -"hitting the pipe," as 1t Is called-as much Rs they do whisky. The Daily Examiner states that out of 8 little more than 300 pris- oners in the house of correction nearly 100 are 'opium fiends." These criminals are not Chinamen, mind you. but Americans. It is really startling assertion that in any part of the Union one-third of the convicts are confirmed opium eaters and smokers But opium and cocaine yield so handsome a profit that 1t Is difficult to enact law either to prohibit or restrict their use. It Is the same old dollar bill that rules East and West alike.
