anceS.

The Legislature meets at 8
o'clock this morning in pursu-
ance of resolution introduced by
the Hon. J. NJ. Horner. The roll
is to be called every morning and
every afternoon and a prompt and
full attendance is hoped for. If
the additional time gained is spent
in work and not in talk, the mem
bers will have some small prospect
of eating their Christmas dinners
in their own homes.
If no more progress is made in
days to come than has been made
in the two or three days last past
however, nothing is likely to drive
the present House home except the
election of its successors. On Wed.
nesday, the entire accomplishment
of the Assembly was limited to the
passage of two items in the Appro
priation bill: At this rate, two
items a day, or six a week, the
third reading of the Bill will not
be finished before February, 1894

officials have been drawing for
the eight months which have
elapsed since the close of the last
period ? In the first case, the re-
duction in the bill would take
effect for the entire two years, and
the amounts drawn thus far would
be treated simply as advances
against the total salary for the two
years. In the second case, the
Government officials would be paid
at the rate in the last bill until
November Both, and the reduction
in the new bill would only take
effect from December LIST, applying
therefore to but sixteen months,
or two-thirds of the biennial
period. The Ministry has in
terpreted the action of the House
as meaning that the reductions in
the Appropriation Bill were not to
take effect until it passed, and
they have gone through the whole
bill making the necessary changes
in each item. Rep. Ashford made

Probably the most
uncomfortable feeling in the
list of feels is sea-sickness;
the person who suffers from it,
and his name is legion, has
but one desire, and that to be
''let alone" Food in any
shape is repulsive and the
patient goes through the
voyage on starvation basis
because, as a rule, the
stomach will not retain
anything. TARo-MALoo is
peculiarly adopted to such
cases: the stomach will be
strengthened by it and other
food may be partaken an hour
afterward. In the most
severe cases of sea-sickness

with pleasant results.

There can be no doubt that the
policy urged by Mr.. Ashford was,
on principle, the sounder. He
showed that the practice of the Gov
eminent had always been to treat
the rate fixed in the Bill as apply
ing to the whole biennial period to
the time before its passage not less
than that succeeding. This is the
most convenient and rational pro-
cedure. 1t is absurd to pass an
appropriation bill, ostensibly for
two years, and then go through
the entire document on the third
reading, revising, at great
expenditure of time and labor,
almost every item, in order
to make the Act 16, or II, or Is
months one, as the case may be.
What is of more consequence still,
the result of this method is that
the Government loses the benefit
of the reductions for one-third of
the entire period, a loss which
may well amount to tens of thous-
ands of dollars.
In the particular case, however,
the view of Mr.. Ashford, which we
think in theory the only sound
one, could not be well adopted for
the simple reason that the House
has practically been proceeding on
an opposite theory from the begin
ming. The debate in the House in
connection with the Act authoriz-
ing the Minister to pay salaries,
showed very plainly that
the general understanding was
that reductions should not
go into effect until the
passage of the bill. Government
employees have SO understood it.
They have drawn their salaries,
not as advances on an open
account, but as payment for their
services. Each months pay has
exactly discharged the employees
claim against the Government for
that month. If this was not
the case the officers of the
Government should have had no.
tice of it. The House should
have shaped its course &C
cordingly. Above all it should
not have adopted the absurd prac.
tice of paying it's salaries on the
scale of 1890, when it was cutting
all these salaries down. 1t should
not have passed two laws authoriz-
ing all it's employees, even the
most petty, to overdraw for eight
months. The Cabinet should have
notified the various heads of de
partments of the necessity O.
making immediate reductions O.
force on the basis of the new bill
None of these things having beer
done or thought of, it is perhaps
too late now to repair the mischief
The net result is that the Gov
eminent has thrown away tens o
thousands. But as everybody
business is nobody's business, i
does not appear that anyone il
particular is to blame.

companying extract from an ex-

change -
Mr.. Charles Richards Dodge, special
agent in charge of fiber Investigations in
the Agricultural Department, has made
an official report on the trials OF ramle
decorticating machines at Audubon Park,
New Orleans, on September so, as shown
by the special report of the board of ex-
perts appointed to conduct and witness
these trials. Three decorticatlng ma
chimes were experimental with, the fiber
plant being native of Louisiana. The
account given by Mr.. Dodge is quite ex-
tended, particularly when the rather
barren results of the experiments are
considered. All there is to say of them
is that none of the machines proved sat
isfactory or eficient-that ramie appears
to be very perishable, soon becoming
untitled for decorticating except in a
green state. One OF the decorticating
machines could not Cor did mott handle
irregular-sized plants, and the other two
clogged in short time.
