SENATORIAL PLUTOCRACN-A
REPLY.

REPLY.
In very interesting communication.
one Of our subscribers takes exception
to recent editorial in the TIMES en-
titled, Remedy for Senatorial Plutoc-
racy," as not being consistent with
sound Jeffersonian doctrines. 1t will
be remembered that the suggestion was
advanced in that article that the only
means Of preventing the United States
Senate from becoming an association of
millionaires seem to be to leave the cleo
ton Of Senators to the people, just as
we now do in the instance Of Congress
men.
We we're fully aware of the Federal
principle represented by the Senate
and so forcibly stated by our cores
pondent. AT the same time, there can
be no question that under the working
OF the present system Of electing SEN
ators, the upper House Of Congress is
to all intents a mere corporation OF
millionaires who have no real sympathy
with the needs or aspirations Of tho
people. and the present character Of the
body will be more and more intensified
with the progress of time as tho inhu
ences Of wealth spread through the
Southern States.
Shall this condition of things be al
lowed to continue for an indefinite
period II it is not to be allowed.
what means arc to be employed to
change it For the Senate 10 perma.
nently remain a club Of millionaires
would seem to be as Inconsistent with
the essential principles of our govern
ment as to throw the election Of the Sen
ators directly upon the sufTrages Of the
people. The latter would undoubt
eddy be a radical departure from
the spirit Of the Federal sys
tenn. but the former is equally OPP
posed to the soundness of Republican
society. 1t would be a choice between
two evils. and of the two, the forma-
ton of plutocracy, dangerous in its
disposition and demoTalizing in the ex
ample which it sets, IS certainly not tho
one worthy Of less consideration.
Any proposed change in the system Of
our government, however, looking to
further curtailment of the dignity of
the States should, Of course, be APP
preached with the utmost deliberation.
II should not even be suggested unless
the evil to be cured is SO great as to JUS
tify the application Of remedies that
are almost revolutionary in their char
acter. Is the evil to which we have re-
ferred OF that nature Time alone
must decide.

Bridge of Ice.

In the fall, when the ice in the Penob-
scot prevents tho running of the ferry
boats, and while the water in the chan
nels on each side Of the island Of Old
town runs so swiftly that it will not
readily freeze unaided, the Indians who
live on the island aid it and make a safe
bridge at small expense. They get a big
cake Of ice from the nearest still water
and swing it across the channel in a
narrow part. In a few nights it is frozen
hard enough to bear the weight OF per
sons crossing, and comes into use for a
number Of weeks before the Other ice
is ready.-Boston Budget

When the train pulled out Of the depot
at Brayton's point the other day the
mother placed the child in seat, and
while she was arranging her bonnet the
offspring took occasion to disappear
through a window. Its parent lay down
on the floor in a faint, passengers groaned
and a brakeman gave the bell cord a
yank. The engine came 10 standstill
and ono Of tile hands walked back a
couple Of blocks. He found the baby
sitting contentedly in a mud puddle, tax
ing in the scenery and playing with its
feet The mother was so overcome that
she could not continue her journey

Belief in dreams has received new ad.
herents in Lincoln county, Me-, owing
to some strange circumstances attend
ing the finding Of the body Of Elbridge
Call. The account is given by The Bath
Times as follows: For three or four days
three or four hundred people had been
diligently securing the woods and exam
ming the ponds in the vicinity, when q
brother-in-law of the missing man ia
whose care Calls motherless child had
been left, dreamed that he had found
the body of Call drowned under a
bridge. After telling his wife and others
Of his dream he started 10 follow down
a creek not far from his farm, over
which his dream had located a bridge
Upon arriving in Dresden he sought his
intimate friend and brother-in-law, Mr.
Bowman Myers, and they both made
their way to the little stream from a
directly contrary direction from Calls
home, and under the old country road
stone bridge so old that old people say
that it was built before their time, they
found the body.

UNDER the law that has long prevailed
as one OF the most clearly recognized of
all legal principles, one employe,
whether a servant Of a corporation OF a
private person, could not hold his en-
ployer responsible for the negligenceor
willful wrong to himself of his fellow
employe in the course of their employ
ment. On Tuesday the House passed a
bill modifying the law in this respect.
so far as railroads were concerned, and
if the bill becomes a law by the concur
rerce of the Senate and the signature OF
the Governor. the change will be in
many respects an advantage, not only
to individuals, but to the public at
large, by compelling closer super
vision over the general conduct Of en-
ployes on the part of railroads, as well
as greater care in their selection in the
first instance. The more fully our rail
roads are made to understand their re-
sponsibility for the acts of their EN-.
ployes in every relation connected with
their employment, the more thought
fulness they will show in exercising
wholesome restraint over those EN-
ployes. not only in their relation to the
public, but also to themselves.

Worlds 1 air.
New York Tribune

Mr.. Flower undoubtedly has reason
and common sense on his side when he
says that the House should first decide
that World's Fair shall be held. and
then consider the question where to
hold il. That is the logical and proper
order. There is scarcely a doubt as to
the decision on the first branch OF the
Inquiry, but that ought to be disposed
OF before tlking up the other. Mean
time the bill prepared by the local Com
mittee on Legislation for the fair
has been perfected, and will be sent to
Albany to-day. If the opinion Of law
yers like Mr.. Depew, Mr. Root, and
Mr.. Bowers is convincing, there can be
no question as 10 the constitutionality
of the proposed legislation. and the
prompt passage of the bill will be urged
upon the Legislature.

A Tribute 10 a Kind Master.
baltimore SUM-

Among the hundreds Of letters re-
ceived by Mrs. Jefferson Davis since the
death of her distinguished husband
there is scarcely one more suggestive
and touching than one from his old SER
wants at Brierfeld, Miss. which reads
I'VE. the old servants and tenants of
our beloved master, Hon. Jefferson Da-
Wis, have cause to mingle our tears over
his death, who was always so kind and
thoughtful Of our peace and happiness.
We extend to you our humble sympa-
thy. Respectfully, your old tenants
and servants Mr.. Davis was always
a kind master. and such incidents as
this, which could be multiplied, are the
most effectual answer TO many Of the
untruthful publications that have been
made about him.

A MDDLE-AGED c0lored man boarded a
horse-car in Brooklyn the other evenings
and when the conductor came around for his
fare didn't bother about his pockets, but
simply put his hand 20 one Of his capacious
ears and drew forth nickel. The conduc-
tor and passengers were astonished al the
maneuser and the conductor asked; "Nhy
do you carry your money there, captain -
cause IFS handy, sir replied the son Of
Ham, and the passengers all laughed at the
new wrinkle ia money pouches. II was OBJ
served that he also carried a nickel in the

The Esauimaux ON land journeys often
encounter hills where it would be very
dangerous to attempt a descent with a
heavily loaded sled drawn by dogs
When such a place is reached they I'M
hitch the dogs and let the sled descend
by its own weight. All the men act as
brakes to prevent, if possible, descent
SO rapid as to land the equipage a COM
plete wreck at the bottom. The two
strongest Of the drivers take their places
on the sides at the front of the sled, and
the others hold on where they can; all
pull back rs strongly IS possible when
the speed increases. Some plant their
feet straight in front of them and send
the snow flying as If from a snow pillow.
Others find themselves taking leaps that
would astonish a kangaroo, are dragged
furiously along, or, maybe, come rolling
TO the bottom after the sled. The dogs
regard the whole affair as a joke, and
with their traces tied together come
dashing along in the wild chase, some
barking joyously, others yelping dis
tressedly, as, caught in the traces they
are dragged to the foot Of the hill by
their reckless companions it often
seemed a wonder when, even with all
our exertions, we could land sled and
party at the bottom in safety.-St
Nicholas.

steam Trombone.
New York Tines

Il is painful TO observe that the ne
farious person who owns and operates
"A steam trombone" in Scranton, Pa,
has carried bis brazeEness 80 far az to
20 into court to defend his right to
maintain that dreadful engine. The
case against him Is really more heinous
than at first appeared. for he begins TO
toOt the thing at the cruel and un-
usual hour of G A. NJ. and there is n
hotel next door to it. Why the in
mates of that hotel do not take shots at
him az he walks the street, or pull his
trombone to pieces, is question impossi-
bic to answer except by reference to the
fatuous and criminal good nature 81 the
American character. The miscreant
has even procured certain persons to
make affidavits that they like il. Pre-
sumably they are deaf mutes; but if
not they should be marked for identiti-
cation with the wTetched owner when
the hour of vengeance strikes A judge
now has the trombone under adver-
tisement, 'and it is to be hoped that his
decision will be such as TO prevent an
outbreak of popular fury.

finances shows an income Of 81 $50. 900,
and ordinary expenditures fixed at ST.
$40 600. There are extraordinary pay

which will leave deficiency OF
1853. 900. This deficiency is to be met
either by legislative appropriation or by
the sale Of stocks held by the State-a
course which the Governor will not re-
commend. but TO which he will resort
at need. The Governor believes that the

fall most heavily upon the farmers.
