The Kansas City Gazette breaches a
little object sermon on the movement
(?) toward resubmissiOn in Kansas as
follows: The Sixth ward has been a
hot bed Of resubmissiOn, occasionally
making noise enough to give the i'm
preston that the world was on fire. Ii
has been the boast that the state was
to be furnished an 'eye.opener' on
this question. Result: Hon. Harvey
Allen, republican candidate for council
man, an old member of the Kansas
legislature, and Tor several years coun-
Gilman at Leavenworth, was elected by
a majority of 20 over the resubmissiOn
crowd of the Sixth ward" Will the To-

There never has been any such practice
since the constitution was formed. Thou-
sands and tens Of thousands of bills have
become laws for which a majority did not
vote, Indeed a measure which has been We
coed by the executive can become a law
without majority of Congress voting for it.
ihe reason that several states have adopted
provision requiring majority of the egis-
iature to vote for an act In order to make it
law, is simply because their constitution
makers thought such provision wise. The
trainers of the constitution of the United
States did not think it wise and therefore
did not put 1t there. The constitution of the
United States simply provides that major
ity OF both houses shall constitute quorum
to do business. 1t does not say that ma
iority shall vote for bill before it shall be-
come law. The comparative wisdom of the
constitution of the United States and the
constitutions of the most intelligent states
which the Herald talks about has nothing to
do with Speaker Reeds ruling and no bear
ing upon it. Mr.. Reed was acting under the
constitution of the United States, and for
him to rule that no measure could become a
law until majority of Congress had voted
for 1t would have been plain and palpable
violation of the fundamental law. The Her

After backing and filling on the matter for
some time the French ministry has finally
come to the conclusion that it will be better
policy to set the young Duke of Orleans free
than to keep him locked up in prison for the
next two years. The decision is probably
wise. There has never been any evidence to
show that the Duke went to Paris for any
other purpose than the one he avowed. name
ly, to enlist in the army. His visit was GER
tainly not prearrapGed with the Royalists as
1t would have been had an uprising been in
tended. NSoubt the Duke thought the Of
fer-Stnis services to his country would pop
ularlze him with the people and enure to his
benefit perhaps sometime in the future. But
1t was method of gaining popularity which
was legitimate, and to punish him for it
would probably have the effect of making
him still more popular.

The Worlds Fair debate, so far as 1t has
proceeded, has served to develop the fact
that there Is considerable number in the
House who do not want any fair at all; and
the further fact that among those who do
want fair there is great, and even bitter.
difference Of opinion as to the place where it
should be held. New York, Chicago, st.
Louis and Washington, all have their BOOM
ers, each one bent on exaggerating the ad-
antages of his favorite and depreciatlng
hose of all the rest. What the outcome will
be nobody can foresee, but squabbles Of the
kind now going on are very apt to be fatal
to enterprises of this nature. The weight of
argument is doubtless In favor of New York.
Its situation is better than any of the other
cities mentioned, 1t can furnish better accom-
modations for the multitudes who will visit
the exhibition, and besides, it is the metrop
oils of the country. One great objection to
washington. and it ought to be decisive, is
that If the fair is held there the government
will inevitably have to bear the greater part.

Probably before Congress adjourns we
shall have two more States-ldaho and Wy

has already reported In favor of the admis-
sion of the former. The population Of Idaho
is about 10000. and is rapidly growing. 1t
has So, o0O.o 600 of capital invested in devel-
opilg its resources, and the product of the
mines last year was S1Z00o,OOO. The terri
tory has large forests and ample agricultural
and grazing lands to support large and in
dustrious population, and there is no danger
that the proposed state will dwindle to the
insignifcance of Nevada. which is held up as
bugbear. One Of the principal objections
tu the admission of Idaho has been the large
Mormon population, numbering hitherto
about 5000 votes, but the constitution adopt
Ell last fall by the people of Idaho, and the
recent United States court decision which
,nables Idaho to deprive polygamists of po-
cal power, seem to guarantee the State
inst Mormon encroachments. The peo-
Of Wyoming have adopted constitution
their claim to statehood. which seems to
well founded, will probably get favorable
action later. The Democrats as rule are
opposed to the admission of either territory,
which indicates that both are likely to be
Republican in politics.
