The public documents or printing bill is
nov in its critical stage in Congress. The
Senate passed It nearly as originally drawn
in which shape it held very closely to the
lines Indicated by the American Library
Association rs the most practicable efficient
and economical system Of distributing gov
ernrnent publications, now reeklessly and
wastef6lly scattered here and there. The
iiousc struck out from the bill the provis-
ion for centralized supervision of distrib-
uting from the economical motive that the
proposed bureau might be cumbrous and
costly. The economy of such u bureau is
TO those who have most carefully studied
the subject, strong reason for Il. The
bill is now in conference committee. Every
person interested in the reasonable distribu-
ton Of all public documents issued by Con-
gress to public libraries and literary institn-
tons, where they will be priced by all stu
dents, should write at once to his represen-
tatives in Congress to ask the passage Of
the bill in its original form, and do every
thing he can in its favor.

The proposition Of Senator Chandler of
New Hampshire, TO keep the cholera con
tsaion frora our shores In this year of the
great Columbian Exposition By the suspen.
sion Of immigration is causing great deal
OF discussion in all sections OF the country
Many believe that the proposition is alto
gether too sweeping, and that thorough
system of national quarantine would accom-
plish the purpose sought. Senator Chand-
Ter, however, is convinced that in no other
way can the threatened evil be averted. The
question is one Of the most important that
will claim the attention of Congress. Should
the cholera secure foothoid in the United
States this year it would most seriously
interfere with the success Of our big fair,
and very likely force its postponement.
