M'KINLEY BILL IN THE SENATE.

The Sherman-M Morrill, game If having
the Mckinley tariff bill considered by
the senate finance committee in full
body instead Of referring it to the sub
committee was evidently not under
stood when sprung upon the com
mttce. The first Interpretation was
that it meant indefinite postpone
ment of the bill it being obvious that,
with but one Republican majority in
the committee, and that one, like
Allison, tariff reiormer, it would
take forever" for the committee to
agree on bill to be reported to the
senate. 1t tranSpires, however, that
the Snerman-Morrill game meant
something very different. 1t was
really very cunning scheme TO force
the bill through the senate intact, as
the Republicans, with their one ma
jority, could have been compelled to
act as unit on every item in the
schedules, or otherwise leave the
Democrats masters Of the situation, a
result which, no matter how greatly
two or three Republicans might have
desired to cut down excessive tax
alton, they would not have dared
openly to bring about. On the con-
trary, they would have been dragooned
into allowing the bill to 90 back to
the senate substantially as it passed
the house.
Thus understood, the Democrats on
the committee objected to the ar
rangement, and being joined by the
weakened Republicans, it was
broken up and the other scheme
adopted Of returning TO the usual
method Of working by subcommittee,
only that all the Republican members
shall compose one and all the Demo-
cratic members the other sub-com-
mittee. This-as subcommittee work
is done in secret-will give the Repub-
lican tariff reformers all the oppor-
tunity they want OF cutting and slash
ing at the bill, though they may not
be able TO accomplish anything; and
1t will give the Democrats an oppor-
tunity, by preparing a set OF low tariff
schedules, TO catch the eye Of the
country; and when both schemes are
presented TO be fought out on the
floor of the senate, the Democrats will
be able to harvest to themselves all
the glory there is In IL, while, a. there

THE CENSUS.

The let down at the last moment of
Census Commissioners Porter in the
matter of answering certain questions
of the enumerators in regard to health
and mortgage Indebtedness involves a
good deal more than appears on its
face. The exception being made on
the ground that the questions invaded
individual privacy. the point comes
up, are not nearly all the other ques-
tions To be asked by the enumeratOrs
Objectionable on the same ground !?
Many people are very sensitive about
telling their age, place Of birth, wheth-
er they can read or write, &c. Most
manufacturers dislike to tell how much
capital they have invested, how many
hands they employ, or the value OF
products turned out And so through
the list Of all the professions, trades,
and other pursuits. The ground be-
ing conceded that answers concerning
health and disease and mortgage in
debledness cannot be legally enforced,
the whole case of such census as con-
gress proposed to have taken is sur
rendered, and the work is whitfield
down to the simple constitutional au-
thOriZatlOn of taking an enumeration
of the inhabitants" This is an eX.
ceedingly simple matter and can all
be done in one day, as it is done once
in every ten year, in England.
In this review the 'let up" by Gen.
Porter on any of his questions Is most
unfortunate. 1t is an actual conces-
sion of the point that the powers OF
congress are restricted to an enumera-
tion of the inhabitants, and that the
answers to all questions beyond that
are purely voluntary and may be given
in a hap-hazard, random way or re-
fused entirely. The statistics gather
ed in such way, covering so vast a
field as that included in the Superin-
tendant's schedules, must thus neces-
sarily prove One-sided, imperfect and
useless. 1t were better to drop the
whole thing and begin over. 1t would
save many millions of money and avert
a conspicuous humiliation and failure.
Gen. Porter had no honorable alterna-
tive but to insist strenuOusly on an
answer to every question or drop the
whole business.

propose. in the face Of certain disaster,
TO make themselves party to it,"

Says the Chicago Herald: "The sea-
son Of the mad-dog is at hand, and
from this time on he will be rather
conspicuous object OF public interest"
1t will be found, we apprehend, on "A
statistical examination Of the subject,
that there is no greater popular error
than that which makes the hot sea-
son, or 1.-THE dog days" the season of
the mad-dog Dogs 90 mad mainly
when deprived Of water, and that is
more apt to occur in midwinter. when
all the ponds and streams are frozen
over, than in the heat OF summer,
though it may occur occasionally that
dogs cannot obtain water in seasons OF
extreme drought. Dogs properly fed
and watered never go mad spontane-
Ously.

HILL.

Herr Witte, OF the Ottawa Wochen'
bLatt, takes strenuous issue with the
Ottawa Republican on its denial that
Hill has "alienated large following
Of voters OF German nationality" and
its statement that Hill has 'alienated
only few disappointed oiiice-seekcrs,
and where Hill has alienated one Col.
Plumb alienated five Republicans, and
vet was reelected by 5000 votes"
Herr White is very positive that the
fippant remarks of the RepuJlican that
the alienation Of Germans extends
only to few disappointed otfice-seek-
ers, won't begin to hold water" In
the distribution Of patronage over his
district Hill has not only systematic
cally sighted, but has stepped aside
to Insult the Germans. For example,
when demonstrated with by very
prominent and influential German OF
this county for his manner of dispos-
ing of the La Sale post office, Hill
said: "You Germans Of La Sale ought
to be abundantly satisfied with your
treatment by the Republican party,
having not only the recorder and pro-
bate clerk, but the state senator given
you" (As if it was any Of HIPS busi-
ness how many offices the Germans
have in this county, His treatment
of Mr.. Bubeck, gentleman of the
highest responsibility, and applicant
for the La Sale post Office, was simply
scandalous. He gave him the most
hattering promises of support at the
same time, when in fact he had al
ready a week before sent in the name
of his opponent! Other instances of
his duplicity towards Germans Of this
county are given, as in the case OF AL.
f. Schoch, applicant for bank exam
iner. And so it has been all over his
district. He belongs to the greasy,
slippery category Of politicians, with
out conscience, and therefore eyer the
most dangerous. Do the Germans owe
him any support? God forbid If he
is nominated for reelection, they will
simply drown him by their votes
Brother White, however, will find
that he is wasting his plants on the
desert air. Hill will be re-nominated
without solitary kick in the conven-
ton, and all the German Republicans,
with Witte in the head, will walk up
to the polls on election day and vote
for him as meekly and Obediently as
the African bows to his fetish.

accurately placed upon such map,
and an ambitious young territory like
Utah, with abundance Of ground TO
spare, could give us something larger
than toy representation Of salt Lake
City and the Mormon Temple. Arl-
IONA would be big enough to give US a
fair representation Of Casa Grande.
Oregon Of Mount Hood, &c, though
the District Of Columbia, confined to
100 square yards, could give but thin
representation OF the Capitol, White
House, Treasury building, Pennsylya-
MIA avenue, &c, and New York and
other Eastern and Middle States would
be choked for space to present their
leading cities, even in miniature. oh,
the plan is beautiful enough in mag
ination and reads like a dream, but
unless each state should take hold with
spirit and determination for itself and
stop at no expenditure to do itself JUS
tice, the time and expense involved,
any one can see at glance, would be
such as TO render idle and absurd any
serious thought OF carrying it out.

Ex-senator VIM. S. Morris Of Gal
cOnda, Pope county, for years one of
the best known and most influential
Republicans of Southern Illinois,
writes strong letter to the Republic
can congressional committee Of his
district, declining to attend and adj
dress a convention of that district and
announcing permanent withdrawal
from the Republican party, being no
longer able conscientiOusly to act with
that party on the tariff question. Mr..
Morris had represented his district
, twice in the lower house Of the Hi
nois legislature and one term in the
senate, and is considered one of the
strongest men Of his party in the
state. His detection, it is said, will
reyOlutionize his district.

In the big muddle the Chicago peo-
pie are worrying now about site for
the Worlds Fair, Frank |. Cannon,
editor of the Ogden, Utah, Standard,
comes to their relief with PROPOSE
tion that seems particularly to catch
their fancy, if it can be carried out.
OF course the plan, if adopted, will at
once dispose Of the lake front and jack
son park and render Garfield park and
the adjoining vacant territory neces-

Of ground. Itisto lay out the grounds

that a square yard bears to a square

them and bit seven Of them. The pup
was tied up and anxiOusly watched,
and next day died with all the symp-
toms of hydDphobia.
Whereupon G. B. Hostetter, the
owner of a maidstone at Tuscola, was
telegraphed for, and upon his arrival
the stone was"applied to the children
and adhered to all except one. The
parents of the children, however, were
not satisfied, and DR.. Gibier at the
head Of the Pasteur Institute in New
York, was telegraphed to know on
what terms the children would be
treated there If brought to him. He
replied that they would be treated
regardless of the question of pay. A
local collection was then taken up and
the children, accompanied with two or
three Of their parents, were sent to
New York, where they arrived on Sat
urday. On Sunday they were taken to
the Institute and all of them in sue
cession treated with hypodermic in
lection Of the solution Of hydrOphobia
virus, according to the PaSteur formula.
The children and the parents in charge
of them are provided with COM
Portable boarding place where they
will be kept and daily treated during
the prescribed term, which is usually
about two weeks.
While the chances are decided that
all the children will return perfectly
cured, there will yet be doubt whether
the cure is to be attributed to the mad
stone or the Pasteur treatment.
Again, a doubt is raised whether the
dog really had hydrophobia, as it is
said other dogs in the vicinity have
manifested similar symptoms of hydro
phobia from having been poisoned by
a weed which produces them.
