It IS a matter Of regret that Congress
adjourned without taking action on the
bills for the admission of Arizona and
New Mexico into the Union 1t is time
that the anomalous territorial system
was abolished in the United States.
But it is claimed that Arizona has
very small population, and New Mexico
population largely composed Of IN
educated and Spanish speaking per-
sons. ana these objections have been
urged repeatedly against haste in TAX
ing I'D the admission bills for those
territories. The fact that they would
be silver states too. has operated un-
fayorabiy in their case, in the minds
Of legislators who are opposed to the
free silver movement.
We do not mention these objections
because they are sufficient to excuse
the injustice exhibited to those ter
ritories. Arizona has a larger popula-
ton than Wyoming had upon her ad-
mission. The people Of New Mexico are
| not necessarily ignorant because many
| OF them speak Spanish. The silver
objection could have ben urged With
equal propriety against all the western
| territories. Utah inclGded and ought
not to count on the question Of state
! hood.
we call the territorial system
anomalous because it is evident that
! the Constitution OF the United States
contemplates union of sovereign COM
! rnonwealths for mutual strength, bene-
! fit and protection, not a number of
| provinces or dependencies And what
I ever necessities may have arisen. in
! The acquisition of territory, for the
organization of temporary local gov
| ernments, careful reading of the ordi-
! nance adopted in reference to the ter
ritory northwest Of the Ohio river in
an early day, and which was the
foundation Of the present territorial
system, shows that it was intended as
a preparatory means of bringing into
/ the Union Of States all such organiza-
| tons when they had acquired SUFFICIENT
population and means to sustain a
state government.
We we're in hopes that as the system
Of continuing these provinces, as
I places where political rewards can be
I bestowed upon party supporters. is
| undemocratic. Democratic Congress
and administration would have gone
to as great lengths as possible for its
abolition. The territories named will
nave to wait and see whether a Repuh-
lioan Congress Will be any better dis
! posed to take them in out Of the cold
But they may be assured that unless
! they exhibit pretty surely strong
| leaning towards Republicanisrn, they

tude of still waiting.

NO "RouNqY REVIVAL

In voting for the payment of the
amount due by the government for
sugar bounty, up to the date Of the
repeal Of the Mckinley law which
created the bounty, the Congress
Which has just closed did not, as in
timated by a contemporary, make a
sugar bounty revival" 1t was sim
pie act Of justice. as the majority
viewed the matter, to persons and
companies that had good reason to e1-
pect payment and whose business YEN
lures had been based On that reason
able expectation.
We do not look upon the bounty
provision of the Mckinley law in the
light Of legal contract. It it were.
the bounty payments should be con-
tinued until 1865. 1t was an appropria-
ton provided for on improper princi-
pies For this the sugar makers were
not responsible. 1t was the RepubH-
can Congress that committed the err
ror. In repeating the untenabIe law,
an injustice appeared to have been
done to the people who had right to
expect the money voted to them, and
which was due when the repeal bill
was passed, and 50 the propositions to
pay that debt prevailed.
OF course after the passage of that
bill no more bounty money can be
lawfully paid. It IS very unlikely that
any attempt at "revivap of the Bounty
would be efeetual. The wrong and
unconstitutionaNty OF appropriating
public money for private uses are be-
ing deeply impressed on the minds of
the people. The decisions of courts
! are against it. The taxpaying citizens
! of the country have reason to oppose
Il. There is no legitimate authority "a
establish It. The Partially, injustice
and special legislation 1t involves,
make It obnoxious to every fair mind
which examines It in the light of prin-
ciple.
! The sugar companies which Will be
the recipients of the bounty money
that is due, Will of course rejoice oyer
the appropriation and viii now face
| the future cheerfully, knowing that
they must rely on their own resources
and business ability. If they cannot
stand on their own feet after the help
ana experience they have acquired
they ought not to expect the nation to
supply them with gold OF silver
crutches. Like all other reasonable
business enterprises. they must de-
pend on public support in the only
proper way--supply a good article at
I reasonable rates and receive quid pro
/ quo. A venture that cannot live with
out pabulum from the public pap-boWl
cannot long survive ana is not worth
perpetual public sustenance.

1.-THE obligations of the bond syndicate

when the final payment for the bonds
was made June 20 last. Nevertheless it
is the intention of the syndicate to do
all in its power to maintain the gold
reserve. The date, October /, up to
which the syndicate has an option on
any new issue of bonds, will not mark
the limit of efforts to keep the reserve
any more than the date of the final
payment for the bonds delivered. The
syndicate is anxious to see the finance
kept in good order and will exert itself
to that end. A mistake was made in
reporting the gold contributed to the
government by the banks to-day. The
amount put in the sub-treasury was
100000 and not $4,000 A contribu-
ton of S1500,0O0 credited to the Park

that to-day's Withdrawals wouid likely
approximate $5,000,000 AS means of
obtaining gold Secretary Carlisle ac-
cepted the offer of several parties to
supply gold at New York. He agreed
to give them the government contract
rates for shipments of currency from
Washington to any point designated,
upon their depositiing gold in New York,
providing the gold so deposited was not
withdrawn from the treasury. At pres
ent shippers have to pay bankers rates,
which is considerably higher than the
government rates.
1t is thought that considerable gold
will be obtained in this way.
