In New York State they are trying
to cut down the size Of the invest
meut which candidates for Office have
been in the habit Of making. The
Corrupt Practice act, which has latsly
become . law. compels candidates to
file IN isemized statement Of thei,
campaign expenses. Tho 6g"res fo'
tho recent election in the city Of Al.
bsny. where Mr.. Manning, son Of the
late Daniel Manning and editor Of
tho Argus, won . notable victory,
were put on record aud they have
been widely quoted. Tho amount.
named BY the Albany candidates were
not large.
Now comes Governor Hill, who
says that Tho law il good CROUCH, 30
far - It goes. bns be snege.ts to tho
Legislature that the 6laaen,ens OF elec.
ton expenses incurred should be made
to include tho moneys disbursed BY
the committees. Then. ts,o, the gov.
ernor says that the Albany candidates,
while formally complying with the
law. have merely sworn that they paid
over oerta,n sums TO tho respective
committees for legitimate expenses,
but for what specific purpose tho
money WAS used, no account was rem.
dered. Governor Hill wants the law
to be more explicit regarding these
expenses. He appears to be much
less disturbed by = fear Of invading
private rights in this respect than he
affected to be when he vetoed the bal.
lot reform bill.
New York is tho first State in the
Union to ADOPT the Corrupt Practices
act. Under the suggestion of the
governor, an amendment would com
pei al state, city, county and ward
to swear to the amonnt OF
money they received and tho use they
made Of it. More than this, the gov.
srnor thinks that tho law should place
! limit on the sum that any candidate
nay spend. Evidently he proposes to
get the thing down fine.

water supply. In Washington, the lite
rary and statistical report of the work will

JACKSON, Miss, Oct. 2l.-The supple
mental report of the legislature relating
to state boundaries was taken up for con-
sideration yesterday. The second and
last section thereof reads as follows: The
legislature shall have power to consent
to the acquisition of additional territory
by this state and to make the same a
part thereof, and the legislature may con-
sent to the creation of another state OF
territory to be formed in whole or part out
of a portion of this state whenever tie
consent of the congress Of the United
States shall he given thereto, and the
legislature may solve disputed boun-
daries between this state and its ter.
minous states whenever such disputes
arise.
This is regarded by the delegates from
black counties as an intimation that the
white counties may at some future tim g
make an attempt to secede from the black
counties and leave them to struggle alone
with the race problem.
