Mexico, now on the Senate calendar

was reached, az there were quite a
number of senators who had not
made up their minds on the subject,
1t will not be surprising if a later
conference shall decide to take up
and pass these bills. 1t may be set
down az certain that there will be
no tariff legislation of any kind at
this session; there is no disagreement
with the President in believing that
the proper course is to leave the
tariff in its entirety for the Demo
cratic congress to wrestle with.
1t is probable that the Presi-
dents recommendation for addi-
tional restrictions on. immigration
and for the establishment of a
national quarantine will be acted
upon at this session. Bills looking
thereto have been introduced in

Southern Claims.
Chicago journal.

-Four hundred millions of dollars
is the amount of the southern
claims filed with the court in
Washington. The claims are for
property destroyed during the war
by the union army, and belonging
t. persons protesting to have been
loyal to the government. The
attorney general says that they
number over 5000, and thousands
more are in course of preparation.
During the past year 248 claims
were considered, and in l5S of
these cases findings against the
government were entered involving
an aggregate sum of $485,548. He
says further, that ga large proper
ton of these claims have no just
foundation either in fact or law,
being presented by persons, or the
representatives. Of persons, who
were disloyal to the government
during the war" Unless congress
shall place some barrier to these
demands it is impossible, he thinks,
to predict the amount that the
government may be called upon to
pay.
The warning of the attorney
general is timely, and should be
needed. The fact that demands of
this nature should continue to be
made in large numbers twenty
eight years after the close of the
war suggests fraud as their basis.
At this distance Of time it is next
to impossible to prove with posi-
tiveness whether claimant was
loyal or otherwise. The danger il
that with the utmost care the
government will be imposed upon,
and money drawn from it treasury
for which there is no warrant in
justice.
When the way was opened for
these claims there should have been
more restrictions regarding their
nature. The great number pre-
scented suggests fraud for in most
localities in the south during the
war, loyalty to the government or
any semblanee of it was about as
rare as golden ore. Where loyalists
were found the commanding officers
were careful to set guard over
their property. The probability is,
therefore, that more than half Of
these schemes are for payment for
losses which were the legitimate
fruit Of treason to the government
or sympathy herewith. If three
fourths of them were thrown out
of court Justice would not suffer.

, of fact presentation Of figures
showing just what the Republican
party has done for the country, and
the Democrats already realize that
it is going to be constantly referre d
to by those they have hoodwinked
az it becomes more and more APP
parent, AZ it will from the time
they take control of Congress and
the government, that the campaign
promises they made are impossible
and impracticable. There is no
going behind the increase Of psf
per cent. in the wealth of the coun
try since it passed under the control
Of the Republican party, an increase
unparalleled by the history Of any
country in the world. But the parts
of the message that hurts the
! Democrats the most are those which
tell them that in accordance with
their promises they are expected to
overthrow the protection system
and inaugurate tariff for revenue
only, and that retrogression in the
prosperity of the country will be q
crime; they do not like to be re-
minded of those things.
The restrictions upon fraudulent
voting, in the present federal cleo
ton laws are few enough aud weak
enough, but the Democrats are in
such an almighty hurry to remove
them that forgetting the present
Republican majority in the Senate
a bill has already been introduced
in both House aud Senate to repeal
them all Senator Hoar truly says
that when these laws are repealed
call that will be necessary in great
cities like New York and Chicago,
ana in many of the states, will be
for the Democratic managers, before
an election, to declare what majority
tuey desire, and such majority will
be returned 1t would seem, if this
policy is to be carried out, to be a
pity to put the people to the expense
Of an election" The Democrats
are figuring through the repeal Of
these laws to continue in power
indefinitely. They calculate upon
permanent solid south and large
enough manufactured vote in New
York, Chicago and other cities to
give them permanent control of a
majority Of the electoral college.
What a beginning for the great
Democratic "era Of REFORM" and
how pleasing must be the prospect

selves to believe that anything good

of the government are now them
selves saying that if there is al
deficit in the Treasury after it,
passes under Democratic control
this reserve fund can be used to
make it up.
There appears to be good many
