whole classes Of questions with respect 70 which
we neither are nor can lie Indifferent 10 the
general judgment Of the rest Of mankind. Inc
question of literary honesty is one of them; 1t IS
part Of the question of Honesty in general. We
should hardly pass an act enabling the citizens
Of New-York and Boston TO seize upon all prop
erty belonging to foreigners on arriving steamers
We refuse TO pass an act preventing this roDpery
in the case of literary property, but we do not
extend the privilege to property Of other kinds
There are several reasons why we do not. One
is that no more steamers carrying the property of
foreigners would thereafter arrive in Ncw-fOrk
Boston. Another is that, whatever we may do
in particular case, we do not choose TO set our
selves against the conscience of Christendom
Christianity is older than Columbus. The great
Genoese brought the Old Testament and the New
with him across the Atlantic. Whether we like
it or not, our ideas of morality and Of many other
things are European; or if they are not European
they are Jewish The foundations of the public
opinion Of the civilized world arc the same every
where. They are what we have built on. We
have borrowed almost everything in morals that
is ours; what we have added is more often acct
dental than vital We are part Of Chrlsten-
dom, and We presumably intend to remain To
which end we shall some day have To repudiate
and dsown the doctrines, alike exceptional and
immoral which such un-Amercan citizens Of
illinois as NN5s"s. Hopkins and Payson uphold
Then shall we acquire the respect of Europe, and

telligent classes for men Of letters, or statesmen
or the professions, or for any section OF America
society which has reading, or the habit OF serl-
ous thought or respect for the rights of others
Yet they are so far accepted as representative that
they are believed to speak for great communities
and they bring these great communities into dis
credit and disrepute. Says NJ. Jules Lermina
The most rancorous opponents OF the pro-
posed copyright reform belong to regions the
least given to reading end study; countries purely
industrial, where writers and publishers are sell
dom TO be found. In the constituencies Of these
representatives, Illinois, Kentucky. Missouri
Ohio and Texas intellectual rights are not real
and tangible things The people Of such States
disregard alike the security and the dignity OF
authors whom they treat rs spectators ana
monopolizeB.
This is not think. q true picture of any of
these States. But whose fault is it ii it be not
true? Not NJ. Terminals. He has looked over
the lists Of voters in the House of Representatives
and seen where the opponents OF copyright
come from. He knows where MIR. Hopkins and
Mr. Pavson c.me from. The inference he draws
!. that communities which send men TO Congress

II is a natural inference, and n. Lermina ought
No, IN be blamed fer drawing it. Whether we
blame him or not what we have to consider is
this that all Europe is Of the same mind, draws
the same inference, and comes to the same con-
clusion. More than that. So long as public
opinion throughout the United States remains
sluggish on this subject, so long as we acquieece,
or appear to acquiesce, in the Hopkins-Payson
ideas; 50 long as we accept the policy expressed
by the vote Of the House Of Representatives, and
profit by it, 70 long will the United States, as a
whole. he held responsible for these ideas and this

THE MONTANA SENATOR'S.

4 great deal Of political interest will
be felt in the course which will be pur-
sued by the committee on privileges
and elections OF the United States SEN
ate respecting the claims of the four
senators from Montana, whose credcn-
tials will probably be presented this
week. Undoubtedly objection will be
made to seating either the republican
or democratic contestants, pending an
investigation Of their claims by the
committee, and it is said tie be the de-
sire OF members of the committee to go
fully into the question OF the organiza-
ton of the Montana legislature.
This should be done. The determine
ton of the issue in Montana, so far as
the senator's are concerned, should be
made with the greatest possible freedom
from partisan considerations. The ma
jority in the United States senate can
better afford to lose the W republican
senators from Montana than to seat
them without the Justification of unim-
~peachable facts showing their right to
seats. If q fair, impartial and thorough
investigation Of the issue should show,
as undoubtedly it would, that the organ
ization of the Montana legislature right
fully belonged to the republicans, and
therefore that the republican senator's
are entitled to their seats, the demo-
Gratis could derive no political capital
from the result, but to seat the repub-
lican contestants without thorough in
vestigation and ample justification in
the facts would supply the opposition
with capital that it might here
after employ with considerable advan-
tage to itself. But apart from the po-
litical or partisan aspects of the case the
senate owes it to It's own character and
dignity to demonstrate that in the exer-
else of its constitutional prerogative of
Judging the elections, returns and quail
itications of its members it can rise
superior to partisan influences and do
exact justice.
This issue Is mewhat unfortunate
for Montana, which is likely to be for
some time without representation in the
senate, but it is not so seriously COM
plicated that a determination of it need
be very long delayed. The whole mat
ter really rests upon the vote OF u single
precinct and the evidence regarding
this is doubtless easily accessible. AT
| any rate it is the obvious duty of the
senat committee on privileges and
elections to go fully into the whole
matter so that the result can be justified
before the country.
