The ola democratic idea of"speci-
al privileges to none" is being put
in to practice in the departments at
Washington. In the treasury de-
partment an order has been issued
that will put stop to the practice
otmaking certain accounts Special"
and thereby having them considered
ahead of other accounts filed before
they we're. Certain attorneys have
heretofore been able to get any &C
counts presented by them made
specials" thereby working injus>
tlce to persons who were not dispos-
ed to pay attorneys fees, Under
the new rule every account will be
considered in its turn, and there will
be no such thing as favoritism.

piled to the Surrogate Of New York
for the appointment of an appraiser
to fix the Value of the estate of Jay
Gould, as preliminary to the pay
ment of the State Inheritance TAX Of
one per cent. upon the value of the
property inherited. For paying the
tax within six months of the death
of the testator, the State allows the
heirs rebate Olive per cent, which
the Goulds have decided to save.
The State will receive from the tax
in this instance something like
100000, the Controller o. the city
will get about $1,000 for collecting
it, and the Gould heirs will save
about $50, 900 by paying within the
time specified.

Controller of the Currency Eckels
is of the opinion that it there were
more bank examiners there would
be fewer bank failures. There are
but forty three bank examiners in
the service, and they have a total of
3,S41 national banks to look after.
AS the examiners districts are laid
out at present some of them have
more than 200 banks to care for,
making it apparent that to examine
each bank oitener than once a year
is an impossibility. Mr.. Eckels
says he will redistrict the territory,
ard as soon as possible arrange for
more examiners, so that each bank
may be examined at least twice a
year and as much ottener as possible.
An increase in the number of ex~
amlners, by the way, will not mean
dn increase in the expense to the
/ government, as the examiners tees
are paid b. the banks they examine.

WHATCAUSED THE JURY TO HANG

Here's short story for the bench
and bar.
In one of Georgia's Superior
courts, it doesn't differ" where nor
when, the petit jury, after receiv-
ing. the presiding judges charge
upon a civil suit, in which the
amount involved was not over
twenty-five dollars, retired to make
up their verdict.
The judge commenced the call Of
other cases, and soon had one up
tor trial before the remaining panel
of jurors. This case consumed over
a days time IN its trial, and it was
not until after its conclusion tina,
the judge noted that the Jury out
was chung"
The sheriff was ordered to bring
the jury before the court, when the
following dialogue ensued:
"Well, gentlemen, said the judge,
whats the cause of your delay in
reaching verd;ct-is it a legal prop
osition or some point in the evl 1ence
that is troubling you?"
Neither" answered a juror.
whats the trouble then ?" asked
the judge.
"Well, yer honor" said a juror
1--WE are tied and can't elect fore
man. We have two candidates and
the vote stands five against five
1t is needless to add that the
court collapsed instanter, but soon
recovered and united the tied jury
by directing verdict in the case,
after which his honor ordered the
sheriff to take the jurors out and
hang EN- with hemp.

LAST DAYS AND BEST DAYS.

Every human beings last days
should be bis best days. If he bias
wisely used the. earlier hall of his
life, with the average opportunities
accorded to mankind for amassing
property, he will have money enough
to maintain him without grinding
toll. The best halt Of mans lite
may be devoted to working for 9TH
ers and doing their will, but by the
time he enters on the second bali
ne will be able to spend the rest of
his years'in pleasing himself.
The laws Of nygiece are now so
we'll understood that anybody may
learn them. A man should have
learned so we'll how to take care of
himself during the first half OF his
life that during the last half he will
have perfect health.
Experience will have knocked off
the rough corners OF his nature and
sweetness of his temper He will
have met SO many djsappointments
and lived safe through them all and
come out happily, that at length he
| will have learned that no sorrow can
be eternal and no misery so great
that there will not. yet be a good
deal of fun on the after side of it.
The crude passion and fierce greedi-
ness of raw youth will have exhaust
ed themselves. Care and disaA
pointed hope can no longer eat the
heart QUO aud ruin the digestion.
The experience OF years will enable
the man to- take his fellow~man anl
the events of lie tremendously and
kindly.

THE ANTI-OPTION BILL.

The anti-optiJn bill seems to be stead
lily opposed by some powerful but I'M
seen agency and its chances for becom.
ing law are not assuring. The bill
now pending would restore the functions
of supply and demand. With such {
law in force prices for the more import
ant products OF the soil will not, as now,
be determined in an unnatural way by
the offering of unlimited quantities that
are neither owned by those offering
them nor are they existant.
We believe that the offering upon
exchanges and in bucket shops of fcti-
tious or simulated products Of the soil
brings into effective competition with the
produce Of our farms immense volumes
of grain, and cotton that while non-ex-
istent has the effect of offers of actual
products in determining prices thereby
depreciating the value OF the actual pro-
ducts of the farm, diminish
ing the value of lands, demoralizing the
market, causing wide and rapid fiuctua-
tions, intimidating and driving from the
market those who would otherwise be-
come investment buyers and who are
unwilling to accept the risks involved il
purchases of such products while sta
bility of prices is impossible.
The entire moral sense of the commu-
nifty is III complete accord with US in de-
string an end put to commercial practices
that are steadily undermining and de-
bauching the moral conception of such
as are led away by Elusive hope, which
this species of gaming hold out, of
speedily acquired wealth.
The transactions which the pending
bill is intended to suppress are in no
sense legitimate but are on the contrary.
immoral, against public
policy and destructive OF the best inter
est of the community while serving no
one useful or benefcent purpose.

RAILRoADlNG ON THE ICE.
Tracks Laid Every Winter Across tn
Frozen st. Lawrence.

Tracks Laid Every Winter Across the
Frozen ST. Lawrence.
The communications between the two
shores of the St Lawrence river at
Montreal are made, as is known by
means of the Victoria tubular bridge,
constructed some thirty-five years ago,
which is the largest in the world, the
metallic span being six thousand five
hundred feet long.
But from this point to the Atlantic,
for a distance OF one Thousand miles,
there is no other bridge and all the rail-
roads established on both sides Of the
st. Lawrence have necessarily t. cross
it. The company of the railroad that
built it levies a right-of-way toll of ten
dollars per car and eight cents per pas
senger.
To avoid payment Of these moneys
the S. Z. railroad company had the
idea, some ten years ago, of construct
ing in winter a communication between
the two shores by means Of railroad
established on the ice. Every winter
the work is done over again, and it
amply pays for the outlay. The length
of this ice road is about two miles, be
tween Hochelaga and Longucil.
The railroad is easily built. The track
leaves the main track parallel 10 the
shore, and then curves gradually in
such z manner as TO be perpendicular to
to it, and, then, again, before it strikes
the other shore, it curves anew SO as TO
become nearly parallel 10 the opposite
side, and then il is connected with the
main track on this shore

point of the revolver, was foisted on the
territory.
i Nr. Martin, having assisted in this
grand political maneuver, was made as
sistant clerk OF the house when that
I legislative body met in Pawnee in July,
! 1870. Dr. John H. Stringfellow was
elected speaker of the house. This man.
an eminent Virginian OF his day, said IN
public speech: "All who labor for
their daily bread and are dependent on
their labor for subsistence are slaves. Ali
females who labor for their daily bread
are uncIaste, and have been so from the
days of Abraham" This was the species
Of social science sought to be implanted
in Kansas. Atchi-on. StringfellOw &c
Co., were then the political mentors of
the hour and of MT. Martin.
Mr.. Martin then assisted in break
ing the record at law-making. The
members of the bogus legislature, most
ly actual Missourians, were perhaps
the scaiIiest-lookIng set of clustering,
mercenary, overbeHrlng frontiersmen
ever got together. They had no inclina-
ton, if they had the ability, to make a
code of laws for the new territory.
Therefore they took 1000 pages of the
lIlSSGuEi STATUTES anu tnGiClSQ
explanatory clause that state should
mean territory county court, :"
"board of commissioners" and "circuit
court, district court and the result
was the so-called bogus laws of Kansas.
For the protection of slavery they,
however, enacted far more rigorous
laws than Missouri ihad, or that
We're evere before conceived of. 1t was
made a felony to utter a word against
the institution; to advocate free state
doctrine was imprisonment at hard labor
for not less than five years; to take
slave from his master or advise him of a
right to freedom, ''such person shall be
guilty of felony, and suffer death"
Thus John Martin, ''senator-elect,
received his earliest political training.
The auspices under which a United
States senator first enters public life are
matter of public interest. Mr.. Martin
says, 81 am a Democrat" Surely, in
view of his record, such an announce
ment was quite unnecessary. Il.
