The c0naratulatoly telegram OF
Eliot F. Shepard to Lam ston, the me-
gro who recently obtained seat in
the house Of representatives, has hcen
very general commented on. This
TELEGRAM was as follows:
TO Hon John NJ. L7ngston,
House Ct Representative, Washing
ton. We heartily congratulate you
upon your lone delayed but we'll ear
ned victory. Now, stir up your race
in South Carolina to nominate a
straightout negro ticket from top to
bottom, and tley will capture that
state, fer in this country the majority
have the right to rule.
ELIOT +. SHEPARD
From the safe distance OF his New
York Office this pious editor can keep
the wires warm with such kilograms
as the above. Not ignorant-though
always reckless Of the result ofne-
gro domination in the south, he
calmy counsels the stirring up Of the
race in the state which has Just cmer-
ged from the dark days of roconslruc-
ton into the light and freedom Of a
purer dry, and encourages the lie
groes to make fight for the capture
Of tae government
This Shepard Of the black sheer
would have southern white men put
under foot and inaugurate negro
governments in every state in The
seuth--it he could. He wants the
white race to rule at the north, bu,
not at the south; careless Of the con
sequences, he advocates anarchy ana
misrule tor a section which is enjoy
ing the fruit of prosperity and peace.
Black heels on white necks is his
dream, and if he could safely do So
he would pioneer any movement
which would bring about such 81
} state of affairs
1T is consistent with this pious cdi-
tors religious professions that he
should congratulate men on obtaining
honOrs to which they are not entitled
and then advise them to become
stirrers.up OF strife? Hardly; but
let it he remembered that Editor
Shepard is more kinds OF a-crank
than any other man in the country,
and we believe that he is not only
reckless, but irresponsible.
Let us give him a piece Of advice:
Lam stOJ, being enc Of their own
race wnnld not bo abb 10 fead tnt
negroes to victory in South Carolina.
1t would be too big an undertaking
tor him, singIe-hauded. Suppose
Editor Shepard, who is something Of
a colonel, takes a hand in The move
ment himself? He appears to hav,
the interest of the negroes ut hear !;

THE woRK1SenEHs DEMONSTRATION

In our own country the workingmens
May-Day demonstrations passed off with
out any lawlessness. We were not de-
ceived in our estimate OF the loyalty of the
workingmen of America to free institu-
tions and their respect for the laws. They
have demonstrated to the world that hun
dreds Of thousands Of American citizens,
toilers demanding new concessions and
broader leisure, can assemble, parade and
declare themselves without the need for
the showing of bayonet or for interfer-
ence by the arm of authority. In truth
no more signal exhibition of the strength
of free institutions has been made in recent
times. 1t is a proud record for American
citizenship, and goes far towards popular
izing free government the word over.
While in other countries troops lined the
streets of the cities, parades were forbid
den, and riots occurred in which there was
great loss of life. In the United States
with single slight exception, there was
uniform peace and quiet, and perfect Free
dom to parade and to express the thought
of the heart. Even in England, with all
its boosted freedom, It's authorities had so
little confidence in the intelligence and
loyalty to the law of the working people,
that all demonstrations but one were for

in good sewer and in good street systems.
Drainage must relate to sewer system;
there can be no efficient drainage without
graded and good streets. The sewer sys-
TEN is always maintained at general cost,
and there is no complaint by our CORE
spondent that this is SO. But if his argu-
ment of taxation according to benefits were
to prevail, then the nonresident property
owner, and the owner of personality only,
and the corporate interests that cannot be
affected by sanitary conditions, might
plead logically for exemption from taxa
ton for sewer system. Certainly We
need better system of drainage and sew
erage, and must have them sooner or later
but one thing at time. The question
now is shall we have good streets? Shall
we make manifest the existence of public
enterprise by investing in well-paved and
well-kept streets? The proposition must
not be overloaded. To tag upon it the
more involved questions of what shall be
and what the cost of an efficient sewer
system, will insure the defeat of both,
The REcoRD-UNIoN believes that good
streets are prime necessity, and that
until we construct them we viii not have
values and capital sufficient upon which
to base even the estimates for proper
sewer system.

THE NAVAL REVIEW.

The New York Times, in very surly
tone, inquiries who took it upon themselves
to ask Congress to authorize a naval re-
view in New York harbor in honor of the
columbus celebration in 1892 It adds
that the authority" was not needed, for
"if New York wants naval review she
can get it up on her own account" In
deed but unless the Government of the
United States authorized" it where would
New York secure ships of war for her
naval review? Is the Times so "outp with
everything that originates under Repub-
lican Administration that it cannot cease
to snarl even when national and non
political event is to be celebrated? The
New York Herald takes very different
view of the matter, and declares that New
York is highly complimented by the ac-
ton Of Congress. The provision referred
to in the Columbus celebration bill reads:
Section s. That the President is hereby en-
powered and directed TO hold naval review
in New York harbor in April, 1895, and to ex-
ships of war TO join the United States navy in
rendezvous at Hampton Roads and proceed
thence to said review.
The Times will discover from this that
without the authority of the United
States no invitation could be extended to
foreign nations to take part in the review,
to which they would pay any sort of at
tention. Secretary Tracy is an earnest
friend of the proposed review, and re-
Gently said OF it:
We shall have more men.of-wari in the review,
if it takes place, than any other nation repre-
sented. And when l say this ! mean more
modern steel vessels, for / would not allow any
of our old wooden ships to take part in the re
view. By october, 1892, we will have from
eighteen to twenty modern steel vessels, such
as the Chicago Boston, Atlanta Yorktown, Bal
timore, Phil ldelphia, Newark, Concord, Ben
nington, Dolphin, Petrol, Maine and Texas.
The last two will be heavily armored and
armed, the former with ten-inch guns and the
latter with twelve-inch guns. They compare
iayorably with any modern men-of-war. There
are also cruisers Nos. Z and S, not yet named in
course of construction, and three gunboats two
in Baltimore and one in Boston, which will
probably be completed by that time. Added to
this would be the Cushing and other torpedo
boats. So there need be no fear that we will not
be ereditably represented.
While we cannot cease regret that the
erection of great statue to the memory
of Columbus at Washington was aban-
doned, SO that there can be no unwilling
ceremony there in the celebration year,
the substitution OF naval review in that
splendid sheet OF water, New York harbor,
is happy thought There is every reason
to believe that Spain, Italy, England and
France will send to that review some of
their finest ships, while Brazil, Chile and
Peru will certainly be well represented
also. It will thus become an international
affair, and will serve besides a good pur-
pose in showing how ill-out6tted the
United States is for the defense of her ports
from the water side, compared with the
strength OF the assault that might be made
upon them from the sea.

G. WOOD DAVIS, of Kansas, has recently
made some calculations which he prints in
the May Forum, that will excite good
deal of interest and stimulate the statis-
ticians, such as Mr.. Atkinson, to test, by
recalculation of the figures he presents. 1t
will suffice to give the central thought of
Mr.. Davis paper, and submit it to the con-
sideration that is its DUE He holds that
the statistics of the consumption and pro-
duction of food in the United States shows
that it requires 3.15 acres to maintain a
person. On this basis his study of the
subject of the farmers condition and of the
laws that govern the distribution and con-
sumption Of farm products, that the
amount of tillable land in the United
States will in few years be no greater
than is required to support the population.
His conclusion Is that when this period is
reach we shall have no food products to
export, and that We shall require for home
consumption all that our farmers can
grow. He looks, therefore, to the constant
increase of population to overtake the pro-
duction Of food at very early date, and
his prediction is that then the farmer will
be able to get higher price for his pro-
ducts and will pass out of the present era
of depression, and become more prosperous
than ever before.

ELECTION OF UNITED STATES SEN.
ATORS.

The question of the election by the peo-
pie directly of United States Senators has
long been discussed. But not until the
present year, We believe, has it taken def
mite form in Congress, where bill to effect
change of that character is pending.
Such attainment would, of course, necessi-
tate constitutional revolution. The ar
guments for and against the proposition
are familiar; it is not the purpose to re-
cite them now; there is time enough for
that.
But we do propose to throw out sug-
gestion for discussion, concerning middle
passage between election by the Legisla-
ture and election by the people direct. 1t

hidden, and the troops of the kingdom
were under arms to appear at an instant's
notice. All this testifes to the advanced
condition of the workingmen in America,
and to their appreciation of the sovereign
character of the citizen, his personal re-
sponsibility for infraction of the law, and
his recognition of the equal part he has
with every other citizen in the govern
ment, which is that of all the people and
not of ruling class.
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1890-05-03

is worthy of consideration that we might
elect our Senators by electoral colleges,
representing districts, and thus make the
best possible representative voice of the
people heard, and at the same time pre-
serve that distinctive character in the Sem
atorship that is considered by the friends
of the present system of vital Importance
to the integrity of union of sovereign
States
The scheme would involve equitable
grouping of counties in State into several
districts, presumably having the greater
number of interests in common, as created
by geographical position, topography, nat
ural needs and common desires concerning
public economics. From each of these
districts electors would be chosen, in num-
Der proportional upon a basis to be
evolved, TO State Electoral College for
the choosing of Senators. In the assem-
bled college the election would proceed
and be determined by majority vote Of
districts
Under such system there would be, liz
one sense, minority representation great
centers of population would not control
absolutely, nor would they be wholly at
the mercy of rural sections. Corruption is
greatest in politics where population is
most Dense hence TO adopt the district
electoral system would eliminate the con-
troll of the election of Senators by aggree
CATION of corrupt voters.
The system of choosing by States would
remain, and the Senate therefore retain
its distinctive character Moreover, under
the proposition now submitted the choos-
ing of Senator'S would be cut loose from
all local politics and all issues upon which
legislators might be chosen. We would,
therefore, have clearer and more en-
phatic and an unqualified declaration of
the people as to whom they wished to
represent their State in the Senate of the
nation.
This mere outline will suffice to present
the proposition clearly enough to engage
public thought. We believe that the vir-
tues of the scheme viii develop strongly,
and multiply the more it is thought upon,
and that they far outweigh the proposition
to elect by direct vote of the people. The
latter proposition might be an improve
ment upon the present system, but there
are strong arguments against it, and we
believe new system could be evolved
which would be preferable to election by
the Legislature or by the direct vote of
the people.
