Senator Chandler of New Hampshire has
introduced in the Senate a bill to restrict

referred to the committee on immigration.

which reads as follows:

past. Beside the customary election tables,
political platforms and lists of public officers
there are the following important features |:

States, Pension, Indian and Public Lands
and other topics. A table headed

will be much referred to during 1890, because

ment. 1.-THE New Navy" a chapter giving
the exact facts about all the new vessels,

Beside the purely political information, the

The next few months bid fair to put tile
craftsmanship of the young Emperor of Ger
many to very severe test. 1t is now prac-
tically certain that the new Reichstag
will not contain government majority, and
without such majority the present ministry
Will find it practically impossible to rule.
Three courses will then be open to the EN-
psror; to dissolve the Reichstag and order
new election; to accept the resignation of
the ministry; or to trust to the chance that
the government supporters may be able to
form an alliance with some one of the nu-
merous parties which will have deputies in
the Reichstag and thus get enough recruits
to make majority. Each of the three
courses is beset with difficulties A new
election, unless the government should con-
troll It. would in all probability return new
heichstag as unfavorable to the government
as the one just chosen; and In the present
temper Of the German people any interfer-
ence with the expression Of the popular will
would be dangerous. The dissolution of the
present ministry and the devolving of the
duties of the government upon new and in
experienced hands, would be hazardous,

tion precedent some important concessions

strongly disapprove. 1t will need level

NEW PUBLICATIONS.

Poems. By Harriet McEwen Kimball.
Complete Edition. New York: Arson d, F.
Randolph & Co. Miss Kimball's name and
writings are so well known by all lovers of
the best hymns and lyrical poetry that praise
OF her new volume seems superfluous; and
yet we cannot refrain from c0ngratulating
the public upon acquiring full edition of
the works Of this charming writer. Miss
KimbalPs muse is versatile, and while it NAV
be said that her meter is the writing of
beautiful devotional poetry, and especially
that adapted to the faith of the Episcopal
Church, yet are her lyrics so full of music, so
dainty, so delicate that they win at once our
hearts and our fancy. The present volume
is divided into three parts. The first, consis-
ting OF hymns, Christmas poems and carols.
is dedicated ITO My Mother, The Holy
Catholic Church." The second part contains
series Of lovely lyrics, including the June
Songs. which are delightful. and the dedica-
ton is ITO My Nieces, Jeanne, Mary and
Edith" The third part, "To My God Chill
dren, Jeanette, Frances and Charles Emer-
son." is devoted to poems to, and about,
children. in Miss Kimball's most felicitous
manner. The prelude" of the book is a
dedicatory sonnet to John Greenleaf Whit
tier. the authors personal friend and our
readers will net regret that we give it entire !:
But for thy gracious words, revered OF men,
Scarce had ventured on from year to year
To seek the great worlds much engrossed ear
WIN the small, rhythmic whispers Of my pen.
And now to silence oft withdra wing when
Iny songs SO full and sweet so strong and clear,
And those OF others. nobly sung. hear,
ask, why do aught but listenP Then
Myself makes answer, Who hath given thee
Inls voice within that thou art fain to still?
Ihough Few and scarcely heard thy notes may be,
seek not, not yet Withhold. Trust makes amends
For Trust that waits unquestioning Gods will,
Hearing His words above the words of friends
Miss Kimbalps poems speak best for
themselves, and before closing her most
interesting volume cannot forbear quoting
some exquisite verses called AFTER the
Storm"
All night, in the pauses of sleep, heard
Inc SOUND OF the sn0w-wnd and the sea,
Like the wall OF Thy sorrowing children, God,
Who cry unto Thee.
But In silence and beauty the morning broke.
0'erfowing creation the glad light streamed,
And earth stood shining and white as tine souls
OF the blessed redeemed.
Q glorious marvel in darkness wrought!
with smiles OF promise the blue sky bent
As II to whisper to all who mourn
Loves hidden intent.

ent is the guardian Of the child. In its ex-
IRENE form communism is part of so cialism,
or, more properly, one of the means by
which 1t seeks to accomplish its ends. The
motive at the bottom of socialism is desire
to ameliorate the condition Of the lower
classes, by making the more favored share
with the former their blessings. Though
socialism In Its extreme form is now rarely
70 % found, traces Of its doctrines in differ
ent degrees of modification crop out in al
most all governments. and most individuals
subscribe to some of its mild features. To
exclude, therefore, everybody from the
country who might be included in the broad
dennition Of socialism would probably re-
strict emigration much more than Senator
Chandler or anybody else desires. A word
more exactly defining the class meant to be
excluded win probably be found necessary.

Lieut.. Gov. Jones of New York has sug-
gested modification Of the Saxton ballot
bill which he thinks will enable Gov. Hill
to sign it, AS is well known, Hill confines
his opposition, SO far as public utterance is
concerned, to the official ballot feature of
the bill. But the friends of tie measure re-
gard that as one of the vital features, with
out which the door would be as wide open to
fraud as 1t is now. They argue that IL an
unofficial ballot was allowed the voter who
had sold his vote could vote that ballot and
bring back the official ballot as voucher
that be had done as he had agreed. Jones
suggests that In order to meet this difficulty
there be permitted an official ballot similar
to the other in every respect except one, and
that Is upon the outside of the official ballot
shall be stamped the arms of the State of
New York, and the date of the election.
The voter must pass by the official vote dis.
tributor and must receive ballot from him,
take the ballot into the private compartment
with him, and If he does not desire 20 use
that ballot, but prefers to vote an unofficial
ballot which he has brought with him, he
shall be at liberty to do so, but when he
reaches the ballot box he must either vote
the official ballot or deliver that (haying
voted the ballot of his choice to an inspector,
who will deposit 1t in box provided there
for. In order to accomplish the result de-
sired, which is that he shall have no eyi
dence to show that he has voted the unoffi
cial ballot, 1t shall be deemed misdemeanor
for any man to take from the election place
an official ballot, and any one found with one
In his possession shall be deemed guilty of
amisdemeanor and subject to fine and i'm
prisonment. This looks on its face as If it
would guard against the danger of an un-
official ballot. But the source of the sug-
gestion is SO suspicious thar it will not be
accepted, If accepted at all, without most
thorough and minute examination. There
is abundant reason for believing that Hills
real objection to the Australian system is
fear that it may ensure pure ballot, and
therefore the suspicion naturally arises that
If he has agreed to sign bill embodying
modification of it, it is because he has dis !.
covered some holes in 1t by which the pur-
pose of the system may be defeated.
