Thrown From His Buggy by a Run

Dan NJ. Drumheller, vice presi-

met with serious accident Mon
day afternoon on North Monroe
street. h, III. Bartlett's team ran
into MIR. Drumheller's buggy from

thinks that, as at this time will be nut
In motion the new machinery of the

is a good one, and doubtless the new

commonwealth will be inaugurared in
the most brilliant manner possible.
The slight rains which fell some davs
ago were quite sufficient in some parts of
the country to enable farmers TO begin

been turned over as a prelimlnorv

Hon. Levi Silsby.

When we look upon life or nature
in its varied forms we observe Ger
tain objects, like trees in the forest
which distinguish themselves from
their surroundings. The forest trees
which exhibit life, growth and hardy
development become to our sight
and minds characteristic. They are
distinguished in our observation and
memory from those which make up
their environment. And so it is
with men. After long and active
lives they become imprinted on the
minds of communities.
Looking back thirty or fifty years
we see men identified with the his,
tory and the interests OF Essex
County; men like Dr. Dewey, the
Beauties, lIartshorns, Judge Brooks,
the Darlings, the Silsbys, and many
others that will take their places in
the minds of Essex County people
at suggestion. Not most promi.
nent of all, perhaps, was the late
Hon. Levi Silsby, of Lunenburgh,
but no more characteristic man ever
lived and died in the county. Hardy,
energetic, absolutely and uncompro.
misingly honest, industrious and
faithful to his friends; terribly ten.
acious of his opinions, but with a
mind broad enough and generous
enough to respect the rights and
opinions Of others. AS public man
he was very useful. The FREEDOM.
inant attribute in his character was
perfect fearlessness in relation
to public or private matters. He
exhibited great courage in ANNOUNCE
ing his views and maintaining them,
and he contributed to every depart,
mout of society the results of his
energies. As a politician he was
somewhat partisan, but was always
consistent and loyal, and these quail
tiles gave him real influence be.

representative of his town he was a
thorough working member, and
whatever he touched felt his inhu.

How the Law Is Evaded.

How far short our immigration
laws fall from being q really CO.
herent and effective system, says
the Boston Journal, is strongly en-.
phasized in ihe report of the Board
Of immigration at Portland, Me-, to
the Secretary Of the Treasury.
Portland, during the winter months,
is the terminus of several foreign
steamship lines that during the sum.
ner months run TO Montreal. A
singularly small number of immi,
grants landed at Portland last year.
There were only 6sl in all. The
remainder of the steerage passen.

ance of the present state of affairs
Of immigration only adds To the
great throng of paupers which has,
in many of our larger towns and
cities, become a burden too heavy
to be borne by the temperate and
industrious classes upon whom H.
nally the weight of the burden falls.
1t is most earnestly hoped that
Congress will some time see tie
necessity OF doing something to pre-
vent the evils now existing from the
very mildly restrictive measures for
the regulation of immigration to
this country, and that some time
something shall be done TO prevent
our shores from being the dumping
ground for paupers and criminals
from the Old World AMI that part
Of the new contiguous to US"
In view of the circumstances
cited, the Commissioners urgently
reitcrate the opinion advanced III
/ previous reports, that "our present
laws for the regulation of immigra'
tion will largely fail Of accomplish
ing any benefcent results SO long
as railroads from contiguous foreign
territory are allowed to bring pau.
pers into this country without being
subject to any restrictive measures
whatever" 1t has repeatedly beer
demonstrated that immigrants who
are turned away, for good and oufli-
cient reasons. from New York and
other Atlantic scaports, have subsc-
quently made their way into tn,
United States via Canada. The
amendment to our immigration
!
laws which the Portland Commits
sioners so strongly urge is worthy
Of the particular attention Of ou'

Legislation.


we hope to issue in supplement form
this week. at once suggests the
memory of the late genial and witty
J. A. Prcntiss, who III point of nice
keen wit, as well as elegant literary
tastes, bore true resemblance TO the
best Of those who bore that name,
which has come to indicate polish.
Assuming to be GOV ernor he adj
dressed his legislature somewhat as
follows
"Gentlemen, BY reference to the
constitution of our State find il
provides that this house Shall con
sist of men most noted for wisdom
and virtue Gentlemen, Mark the
language Of the constitution, SHALL,
not MAY. SO you see, gentlemen,
that you are necessarily men most
noted for wisdom and virtue. You
are so because the constitution
makes you Sc"
Now being so constituted our
legislature went to work and the
first thing it did was to bring the
corporation tax law withih constitu
tional limitations. No one can say
but what it was carefully cared for
at its birth. The occasion was 50
delicately observed that like as at
other such occasions the profoundest
secrecy and deepest mystery per
yaded the whole proceedings; and
when the silent yet ominous looking
guard (for the legislature seemed to
be under guard, and what seems to
be sometimes is) was approached by
any impudent citizen he was told to
"wait till the child is born and you
shall see it. The people will know
soon enough what the laws are,
They will be published and no one
will object to the people looking
them over to their hearts content"
And now being published the poo
pie find that with the aid Of the same
influences that destroyed the former
act it is declared that a tax shall be
assessed upon the property" "busi-
ness" cor corporate franchises of
this State" Now the net earnings
of road could not be taxed because
hey grew out of an operation Of it
IN different States; but it is perfect.
ly constitutional to tax its bushes.
although its "business is done in
several States We shall see.
Whatever the act is it IS created
by the very Influences it is intended
TO control The people apparently
had no more to do in making this
law than the people of England have
to do with begctting their kings ant
queens. The act provides for re
turn of the gross and net earnin &,
of railroad corporations. What for
Can a constitution be violated ? Cal
a supreme power, federal or other
be evaded by any such transparent
indirection? We shall see. In any
event is it best that legislation shall
be managed and controlled almos,
exclusively by those TO be affected
by it?
If the proceedings of the las
Legislature Tor those who acted
through iD do not awaken the people
to system of quiet and effectual
resistance two years hence then their
predulity is far beyond our concep
lions.
When we have time to consider
80 as to speak candidly about Other
legislation we viii further common,
as We have opportunity.
