Department OF Justice.

The report of the attorney general is,
under the law, submitted directly to
congress, but as the department of JUS
tice is only one of the executive depart
ments, reference to the work done,
Is appropriate here.
A vigorous and in the main an effective
effort has been made to bring to trial and
punishment all violators of the law: but
at the same time, care has been taken
that frivolous and technical offences
should not be used to swell the fees of
officers or to harass well-disposed citi-
Zens.
Special attention is called to the facts
connected with the prosecution of vio-
lations of the election laws and of of
lenses against United States officers.
The number of convictions secured,
very many of them upon pleas of guilty,
will, it is hoped, have salutary restrain
ing influence.
PosTMAsTERs PROSECUTED.
There have been several cases where
postmasters appointed by me have been
subjected to violent interference in the
discharge of their duties and to persecu-
tions and personal violence of the most
extreme character.
Some of these cases have been dealt
with through the department of justice
and in some cases the postoff1ces have
been abolished or suspended.
lhave directed the postmaster general
to pursue this course in all cases where
all other efforts fail to secure for any
postmaster, not himself in fault, an oppor-
tunity peacefully to exercise the duties of
his office.
But such action will not supplant the
efforts of the department of Justice to
bring the particular offenders to punish
ment
NATURALIZATION.
The vacation by judicial DEGREES of
fraudulent certificates of naturalization
upon bills of equity filed by the attorney
general in the circuit court of the United
States is new application of a familiar
equity jurisdictiction.
Nearly one hundred such DEGREES have
been taken during the year, the evidence
disclosing that very large number of
fraudulent certificates of naturalization
have been issued and in this connection
L beg to renew my recommendation
that the laws be so amended as to re-
quire more full and searching inquiry
into all the facts necessary to naturaliZa-
ton before any certificate is granted.
1t certainly is not too much to require
that an application for American. citizen
shall be heard with as much care and
recorded with as much formality as are
given to cases involving the pettiest
property right.
POOL SELLING.
AZ Sba IacT 7 Al.
my approval a bill entitled, IAN act to
to prohibit book-making and pool selling
in the District of Columbia" and stated
my objection to be that it did not pro-
hibit but in fact licensed what it~pur-
ported to prohibit An effort will be
made under existing laws to suppress
this evil. 1t is not certain that they will
be found adequate.

The Pan American Congress.

Pursuant to the Invitation authorized
by congress, the representatives of every
independent state of the American CONT
nent and of Hayti met in conference in
this capital in October, 1889, and contin-
ued in session until the 18th of last April.
This important convocation marks q most
interesting and influential epoch in the
history of the western hemisphere. 1t is
noteworthy that Brazil was invited, while
under imperial form of government, and
shared as a republic in the deliberations
and results of the conference. The rec
concentrations of this conference were
all transmitted to congress at the last
session. The international marine con-
ference which sat at Washington last
year reached a very gratifying result
The regulations suggested have been
brought to the attention of all govern
ments represented, and their general
adoption is confidently expected.
The legislation of congress at the last
session is in conformity with the propo-
sitions of the conference and the procla-
nation therein provided for will be is
sued when the other powers have
given notice of their adhesion.

there. 1t will surely not be claimed by
any well disposed people that remedy
may be sought and allowed in a system
of Quasi-smuggling.

vailing in Hayti the term of pay
ments were not observed. A new agree
ment as to the time of payment has been
approved and is now in force. Other just
claims of citizens of the United States for
redress of wrongs suffered during the
late political contest in Hayti, it is
hoped, will speedily yield a friendly
treatment

General Foreign Affairs.

General Foreign AnairS.
The conference of Brussels to
devise means for suppressing the
slave trade in Africa afford
ed an opportunity for a new express
sion of the interest the American peo-
pie feel in that great work. 1t soon be-
came evident that the measure proposed
would tax the resources of the Congo
basin beyond the revenues avail
able under the general act
of Berlin of 1884 The United
States not being party to
that act, could not share in its revision,
but by a separate act the independent
state of the Congo was freed from the re-
striction upon a customs revenue. The
decentralization and destructive traffic in
ardent spirits among the tribes also
claimed the earnest attention of the con-
ference and the delegates OF the United
States were foremost in advocating meas
ures for its repression. An accord was
reached, the influence of which will be
very helpful. As soon as these measures
shall receive the sanction of the Neither
lands for time withheld, the general acts
will be submitted for ratification by the
senate; meanwhile negotiations have been
opened for a new and complete treaty of
friendship, commerce and navigation be-
tween the United States and the indepen-
dent state of Congo.
THE LAST AMERICAN MONARCHY.
Toward the end of the past year. the only
independent monarchical government on
the western continent, that of Brazil,
ceased to exist and was succeeded by re-
public. Diplomatic relations were at
once established with the new govern
ment, but it was not completely recog-
niZed until an opportunity had been af-
forded to ascertain that it had popular
approval and support When the course
of events had yielded assurance of this
fact, no time was lost in extending the
new government a full and cordial well
come into the family of American COM
monwealths. 1t is confidently believed
that the good relations of the two coun-
tries will be preserved, and the future
will witness an increased intimacy of in
tercourse, and an expansion of their mu-
tual relations.
The peace of Central America
has again been disturbed through
a revolutionary change in Saliva
dor which was not recognized by other
states and hostilties broke out
between salvador and Guatemala
threatening 70 involve ali Cen
trai America in conflict and

The revision of our treaty relations
with the empire of Japan has continued
to be the subject of consideration and of
correspondence. The questions involved
are both grave and delicate and while it
will be NY duty to see that the interests
of the United States are not by any
changes exposed to undue discrimination,
1 sincerely hope that such revision as
will satisfy the Legislative expectations of
the Japanese government and maintain
the present long existing friendly rela-
tons between Japan and the United
States will be effected

The report of the secretary of the inte-

clearness the vast work of that great de-

are earnestly commended to the con-

particular mention here.

worked there Ave l days, and when We
got through We asked to receive our
pay. Mr.. Sullivan put us of one
time otter another by promises, and
shortly after heskipped away. Then
we sued Mike Mann in justice court.
About three or four days after this
suit was commenced Mr.. Sullivan
came back. Mr.. Kirsch took the case
for the laborers while county attor-

SOME REASONS WHY ARGYLE
SHOULD NOT HAVE THE
COUNTY SEAT.

4 Argyle is situated many miles
from the center Of the county and
hassno valid claim rs to location.
2. The financial condition 81 the,
county does not warrant the change
OF county seat at this time. The in.
debtedness OF the county is now
about $38 600, and the removal of
the county seat would mean an ad-I
|ditional expense Of about 40, ,OOO.
3. The present county buildings
with improvements slately lnade in
the i'll md the building Of q new
vault, are better suited for county
purposes than they have been for
years, and are sufficient for years to
come.
There can be no extra expense
TO BRs county II the court house is
leftswhere it is. The tatement made
by Argyle people that Warren was
intending to build a new court house
ct great expense to the county, han
been proved utterly false, and the
bond for $40, 900 lately executed BY
twenty-five Of the citizens Of Warren
is q sufficient guarantee that Warren
will make no offort Of that kind.
s. The fact that Argyle has not
put up the cash to defray the OK
1 pense Of the special election demon
strates fully that other promises
made by them will not be fulfilled
Warren sheaf., 1890-09-25

The ASSERTION made by Argyle
that if the county seat is not chang
ed now, Warren will have the law
amended 50 thatit will be impossible
to make any change in the future, is
the merest bosh, and no intelligent
man will take any stock in it. II
takes a majority in the legislature to
pass law, and besides it must re-
ceiye the governors signature, and
any man with common sense can see
that Warren even if she was SO dis
posed, would have extremely little
influence in framing a law which
would effect every county in the
state.
