When North Dakota was admitted

IT seems that the Ways and Means
Committee of the Assembly is divided on
the proposition as to whether the appro-
priation of $500, 900 for the Worlds Fair
should be included in the calculation of
appropriations for the support of State
institutions within the fifty-cent. limit.
There ought to be no question about the
proposition. From the time the World q
Fair appropriation was first asked for it
has been generally understood. from one
end OF the State to the other, that what
ever appropriation was made for that pur-
pose should be considered as entirely cut
side OF the ordinary appropriations re-
ferred to in the platforms of the two polit-
ical parties. If the committee should de-
eide that the 100000 should be included
in the regular appropriations for the sup
port of the Stategovernnent, it would re-
suit in cutting off several small APP
preparations which ought to be
made, notably that for the purchase
of Governors Mansion, which
would be deeply regretted by a
vast majority Of the people, who believe
that this State should provide suitable
residence for it's Chief Executive officer
as most of the other States have done.

a more rapid process of reaching the
same end-the conversion of the body
into ash--it may be necessary to regulate
the erection of crematories and to provide
for their proper location and construction.
Until then let the Legislature withhold its
hand in this regulating business. And
whatever it does, let it not vote to any
body of men dangerous monopoly, a
right to corrupt, extort and drive out of
the undertaking business any man who
chooses to enter into it.
With far more reason, with far more of
justification, if it must indulge in regula-

with what we fondly imagine is genuine
With far more justification the Legisla-
ture may regulate the merchant and for
bid any to engage in selling cloth who
cannot detect cotton in wool and split
leather in shoes. Indeed, society would
be more concerned in and benefited by a

PARTY names and traditions do not
count for nearly so much NOWADAYS u
they did few years ago. When, there
fore, the Atlanta Consultation lays down a
platform for 1892, and declares that all
Democrats must stand upon it, it talks
sounding folly. The American peo-
pie are dividing less and less upon
party lines, and more and more upon
policies OF government irrespective of
party coloring. Political leaders who do
not recognize this truth will come to sud-
den grief if they continue to ply party
lashes. In this day more than in any
other, the spirit of independence is
abroad and assertive. Tariffs, policies of
currency, defense, national relations to
foreign governments, commercial inter-
change, promotion Of export commerce,
local elf-government, regulation of the
liquor traffic, advancement of American
shipping interests, conservation of the
integrity of the ballot-these will doubt
less be debated and settled with small re-
gard for party creeds or declarations, and
the men of the nation will settle them in
telligently in the end, and regardless of
partisan dictation.

The column entitled "coloredr in
clude very few Indians and fewer
Chinese. What is especially significant in
the table we have thus compiled is that in
the Southern States lying nearest to
States of the North, and that were con-
tiguous under the old regime to free ter
ritory, show lower proportion of colored
convicts to whites than those farther re-
moved from Northern States. Thus West
Virginia, Kentucky, Texas and Mary
land, are in strong contrast to the other
States tabulated. 1t is not the purpose to
comment at this time upon the subject,
which is full of suggestion, but to invite
attention to a showing which gives every
reason for the belief that the negro in the
South isinot only deprived of his ballot,
but that he is convicted of crime in num-
bers out of all proportion to his numeri-
cal strength in the population, and that
such conviction represents in part the
system of repression against which the
Federal election bill that was so untimely
shelyed, was aimed.

DEATH OF SENATOR HEARST.

The news of the death Of United States
Senator George Hearst, of California, is
received by the people of the State with
profound regret. He was one of the
rugged men of the early days who aided
in hewing the way for the great State he
lived to see marshaled in the procession
OF the Union, as fair and proud as any of
the sisterhood in the Republic. He was
a representative in the fullest sense of the
great mining era, and of the mining in
terests of California. He was also largely
interested in agricultural branches of
progress and development. Coming to
California in the prime of young man
hood he did not fear to labor. and by
assiduity, wise investment and economy,
he anlassed very considerable fortune
and retaining it in this State made it con-
tribute to the advancement of California
and the fostering of her interests. He
served in the Legislature of 1865. He was
appointed in March, 1856, to fill an unex-
pired term in the United States Senate.
In January, 1887, he was elected for full
term in the Senate. 1t will not be claimed
for Mr.. Hearst that he was brilliant
man or statesman. He was a practical
man Of affairs, devoted to the interests of
his State, and discharging the high trust
with which he was invested to the full
extent of his ability. He had a wide
circle of friends in California, and by the
members Of his party was held in especial
regard and respect

HONEST and intelligent purpose in
spires the friends of ballot reform. 1t
has behind it no political motive. Some
sincere people may oppose it on the
ground that it is unsafe to depart from
present methods into the realm of expert
ment. But all progress is experimental
in its initial stages. The enemies OF the
reform who pronounce against it as being
an error are few. Ii the bill establishing
the reform system is beaten at all, it will
be not by these people, but by reason of
the timidity Of the uncertain and doubt
ing ones. Friends of the reform need
therefore, to labor with these hesitatlng
folks, rather than with the out and out
antagonists of the system. Behind the
latter is political power in the hands of
bosses who do not propose to be dispos-
sessed. To reason with them is to waste
time. They cannot be convinced of the
virtues of the system by any amount of
reasoning.

THE officers of the Law and Order
League at Sioux City, Iowa, announce
that their organization has ceased its eff
forts to enforce the prohibition law OF
that State. This is because public senti-
ment does not sustain the law. No statute
can be effective for good that has not be-
hind it the force OF the moral sense OF the
community it seeks to govern. Our laws
spring from the people, and they cannot
rise higher than their source. The Sioux
City organization says its is ''a hopeless
task" because the officials elected will
not only not aid them, but actually op-
pose them. Of course the officials know
that the people sustain them in their op-
position, and hence they reflect the
wishes of the electors to whom they are
responsible. The result is that prohibi-
ton has become free license there.

Mr.. WARNER, in Harper's Magazine,
discusses the question whether women
undergraduates should wear the college
cap and gown. He really settles it, so far
as taste is concerned, when he says the
cold truth is the habit gives plain girl
distinction and handsome girl gives
the habit distinction. But there is, in our
opinion, better reason than that rather
sentimental one. College life is a very
distinctive one; it separates the student
The record-union., 1891-03-01

class, as it should, from ordinary affairs.
This is because the period of college
study is one that should not be hampered
by affairs of the world. The better to
mark this distinction and to cultivate the
esprit du corps, the college uniform is
adopted. So long as women are admitted
to the grades of higher education there
fore, they should be distinguished by a
student costume. There is an another
reason, too-the college uniform levels
distinctions within the college, and puts
rich and poor upon level. 1t becomes
the dress of intellect, and suppresses the
disposition of one to outdo another in the
matter of dress, and therefore is the foe to
vanity. jealousy and heart-burnings.

GOVERNOR DAVID HILL of New York
has made an exhibition of himself Gov
ernor bulkley of Connecticut has re-
buked him deservedly, and made the
Governor of the Empire State laughing
Stock. Governor Bulkley is de facto
Governor of Connecticut; he is in the
office, and even if he should be ousted by
his contestant, all his acts while in office
are legal. Governor Bulkley, under the
seal of the State of Connecticut, made
requisition upon Governor Hill that an
escaped criminal might be delivered to
the Connecticut officers. To this Gov
ernor Hill replied that he must deny the
requisition, since he did not recognize
Governor Bulkley as Governor of Con-
necticut. Of course Governor Hill could
only have newspaper information that
Governor Bulkley's Office is contested;
he could not possibly have any official
knowledge of the matter. He therefore
proceeds to constitute himself judge to
pass upon the right of Governor Bulkley
to the office he fills, and that too, upon
testimony of an unofficial and non-judi-
cial character. He utterly ignores the at
testation of the great seal of sister State
of the Union, and by so doing advertises
to the criminal class in Connecticut that
New York is safe harbor for thieves and
murderers escaping from Connecticut.
Was there ever anything more absurd or
childish? Governor Bulkley has re-
sponded to the gratuitous insult by the
Governor of New York in proper terms.
He tells Mr.. Hill that since he makes
New York a safe refuge for Connecticut
rascals, there are two hundred more in
the penitentiary of the State, who viii be
forwarded by early train upon applica-
ton of Governor Hill, and he doubts not
that from the New York standpoint they
will fill the bill for the kind of popula-
