1BE CONGRESSIONAL REAPP0R7IONMENT

1HE CONGRESSIONAL REAPPORTIONMENT
A bill reapportioning the Congressional dis
tIicts of this State was introduced yesterday.
1t is believed to be largely the handworI of
Governor Flower. Senator Cantor, who intro
duced it, stated that it provided for IL Demo
cratic II Republican and doubtful districts.
This statement would be interesting if true, and
if true would be amazing. For, when one con-
sideN the intensely partisan character OF the
present Legislature a gerrymander, and that OF
the most fragrant sort is all that can reasonably
be expected. and, according to our Albany CORE
spondent, the statement is not true, since the
Democrats will have fair chance of carrying
% of the "a districts. Under the existing ap
portionment the State below High Bridge
elects IS Congressman. Under the bill Of
yesterday it will elect IS. The present XVIII
District consists of the XXlVth AS
sembly District of NewYork and West
chester County. If the reapportionment
goes through this district will become the
XVIth. ROckland Orange and Sullivan now
form a district and the relation is not changed.
Albany by itself continues to be district, and
so does Monroe. But most of the other districts
have been iea.ranged-that is to say, disarranged
Rensselaer, and Washington, for example, prop
erly belong together because of their gcosraph-
ical position But the bill joins Rensselaer, and
Columbia together although in reality they are
separated, and the two counties have no common
interests. Washington is punched with Fulton,
Hamilton, Saratoga Warren and Essex for 10
other conceivable purpose than to crowd as many
Republican counties rs possible into one district.
Senator Cantor desired to convey the impression
that the bill was fair but he is too intelligent
not to know that it was framed with an eye
single to Democratic advantage. viii he have
the face TO claim that if the aim of those who
framed the measure had not been to gerryman
der, Greene Schoharie, Otsego, Montgomery and
schenectady would have been hit upon for the
XXIst District?
Of course if the Democratic bosses say so, this
reapportionment can be put through. They have
the power the only question u.s. will they think
it expedient to use it. The result OF the Rcch-
ester election is well calculated TO teach them
that there is such thing as being too smart.
They went to work, in papable defiance OF the
principle Of local self g0vernment. and tampered
with the wards of Rochester, ilatering them
selves that they had done fine stroke Of work
for the Democracy Of that city. But when they
saw the election returns they stopped laughing
and confessed that they had put their foot in it
up to the shoulder. Their reapportionment may
serve them the same turn. The people have
got tired of Democratic frauds in this State and
can be depended upon to resent them. This is a
bad year fer those who steal legislative seats or
gerymander districts. Honest, philosophical
voters are aroused and are determined that their
rights shall not be invaded

The London Times in an editorial article
dated March discussing the Behrng Sea arbi-
tration treaty and the Supreme Court decision
in the Sayward case, remarks that the signature
of the arbitration treaty the very day when
the judgment of the Supreme Court was declared
seems 10 suggest that Mr. Blaine was anxious
to defer the final step until he was quite sure
that the ground would not be cut from under
his feet by judicial decision This remark is
a thoroughly characteristic illustration of the kind
OF discussion which this controversy has all along
received from the English prcss. The American
Government has been prepared To sign the arbi-
ration treaty substantially as it stands to-day

TIE PJRDON or 4 MURDERER.

Among the many nfamcS committed by DAVID
b. Hill when he was Governor Of this state his
abuse Of tho plrdoning power was by no means
the least fragrant. As he neared the end OF his
term he became absolutely INSCRIPTIONS and
conscicncclcsS in plrdoning the most dangerous
criminals. 1t has just been disclosed that one
# the last pardons which he signed was that of
William COnroy, the murderer Of Peter keenan,.
The crime was most aggravated and ylllanous
one. Ccnry WAS a policeman guardian OF
public order. On November 3, 1885, while on
duty, Conroy entered grogshop in East Thirty
sixlh-St., and drank liquor with frcqucnterS Of
the pla,c until h. became fighting drunk. lie
dubbed and kicked a number Of peaceful men
without provocation, and finally drew hs pistol
and shot Peter Keenan,. He fired several other
shots, and later dubbed the wounded Keenan,
and dragged him to the sationhous keenan,
died soon aftofward.
On his trial Conroy was found guilty of muir
der in the first degree, but the conviction was
reversed on appeal on tcchnicaliies and a new
Trial ordered. There was no doubt that Con-
10y had killed Keenan, in The Circumstances that
have been described. That was not disputed
hy the defence Conroy was 50 afraid of the
result Il another trial that when auagned for
the second time he pleaded guilty Ct murder in

them, then the time has come for revolution.
When the courts are powerlesS to enforce the
law, and their solemn DEGREES are laughed at by
a parcel of election thieves, then the time has
come for an episode of pure democracy. This
time Is not yet, but few more such acts as those
by which Osborne and Walker were PCT into
The State Senate will bring it. And it is be-
cause we wish to avoid such an episode that Isaac
II. Maynard must come down from the high
place his presence pollutes, and Frank lice
Ellio. Danforth, Osborne and Walker, and the
greatest rascal Of them all, David b. Hill, must
speedily 90 into permanent retirement

Reciprocity has largely promoted their INDUSTRIAL
interests II will also hasten the negotiations
now pending with Mexico and the Central Ameri-
can States.
The Presidents Proclamation does not affect
anv country frop which the imported sugar
supply is drawn. Notice was served in January
upon Austria Hungary and also upon Spain in
relation to the Philippine Islands that their sugar
would be subject TO duty after March 10, but
since satisfactory Reciprocity offers have been
received from beth Governments the free mar
ket is not closed against them. France has al
ready made Reciprocity convention, by winch
its beet-,ugar and hides and the canesugar hides
and coffee of its West Indian possessions VIII
continue to have free entry in the United states.
The concessions granted in return place Amer-
can canned meats, fresh and dried fruit hops,
lumber. manufactures of wood and other articles
on the minimum schedules of duties. The prin-
ciple il the same as that adopted IN the hcci-
procity agreement with Germany but as the
importation of sugar and hides from France and
its islands is very much smaller the list OF
concessions is shorter although relatively tho
commercial bargain il better one for the United
States. The convention under negotiation with
Austria will affect considerable source of sugar
supply. and the agreement with Spain in relation
to the Philippine Islands much larger store

NEW PHASES or RECIPROCITY.

The Presidents proclamation reimp0sng duties
upon the coffee, sugar and hides imported from
Venezuela, llayti and Colombia marks the second
stage Of the Reciprocity policy. The United
States in the Tariff Act of 1890 opened its mar
lets to these classes Of imports with the under
standing that the privilege Of FREQ entry would
be withdrawn this year if reciprocal concessions
were not granted in return. These three coun-
tries having declined to enter into Reciprocity
agreements, are now exposed to discriminating
duties against their coffee and hides. The fol-
lowing table shows the mportations of these two
articles in 1890 sugar not being exported from
the countries named

This is an unanswerablc demonstration of the
utility and efficiency of the Reciprocity policy.
Nearly % per cent of the sugar imports either
is already or will speedily be regulated by Reel
procity conventions designed to open foreign
markets for American farm products and manu-
features. Two-thrds of the coffee supply is
subject to the conditions of Reciprocity, and the
Presidents Proclamations, unless all signs fail,
will open the way for the speedy negotiation of
another series Of treaties.
