THE A. P. A. IN CONGRESS-.

Last Tuesdays Picayune contained
the following bit of information IN it's
Washington Jews:
Congress could adjourn in twenty
fou hours but tor the influence of the
American Protective Association in
the house. The district Of Columbia
and the Indian appropriation bills are
held@updn conference on account Of
the controversy over the allowance to
be made to sectarian schools and in
situations. 1t has been customary to
make provision in the district Of Co
lumbla appropriation bill for certain
private benevolent institutions Of
Washington, similar to those that are
aided by the municipal government in
New Orleans. The house, under the
influence OF the A. P. A., contends
that the appropriations hitherto made
for these institutions. which are most
~ Catholic, should be cut off at once.
A similar contention is made with res
pect to the Indian schools, which are
mainly under the supervision Of the
Catholics. The senate maintains that
the government aid should not be
withdrawn Immediately from the
institutions and schools. but that this
action should not be taken until 4
date In the future, which is fixed III
the bills. The conferees have several
times reported their differences, and
the house continues to insist nron the
Immediate discontinuance Of cover
ment appropriations. It is this con. |
troversy which delays the adjourn
meDt of congress, as the differences on
the naval bill can be readily adjusted

WAITS TO BE DONE.

"Will a new constitution in LOUIS
lana make her people honest in poll
tics. Will the Australian ballot law
do away with ballot box stuffersf If
50, then let's have both. If not, what
is to be done 9"-Vermilion Star.
Why, Bro. Pipes, continue hammer
ing at it until a healthy public opinion
is reused which will compel honesty
in politics. All the constitutions and
all the restrictive laws in the world
will not, Of themselves. make people
honest in elections, or for that matter
in any thing else. Constitr tons and
laws may further and help honesty
but they cannot make it. Honesty
springs from the righteousness Of the
heart, and that is not wrought by the
imposition of constitutions and laws,
but by the incubation Of correct prin-
ciples, sanctioned by Christian faith.
The first step then, is to teach hon
esty ; to inculcate correct views of the
duties and the dignity of true citizen
ship; to cultivate a healthy public
opinion which VIII stamp dishonesty
in politics as a vice to be stunned
like all other vices.
But to 10 this successfully it must
be done periodically, unselfishingly,
honestly. Would-be reformers, per-
petaal croakers, whining fault-find-
ers and chronic GROWERS must not
content themselves with preaching
honesty in politics /; they must act
honesty. They must not themselves
resort to tricks as low and mean as
those they condemn in others. They
must come into court with clean
hands to ask equity. They must look
to their own skirts before they point
to the defilement OF their n%eighbors'.
The true reformer is he who has
reformed himself before setting about
reforming the world.
Give us such reformers at this critical
time and true reform will not be long
coming.

An OBJECT LESSON.

A correspondent, writing to the
Picaynne, asks whether, in the event
that a person living in the United
States wishes to send $50 to China, he
should not tie able 10 secure nearly
double that amount in Chinese money
from the banker selling him the ex-
change.
Evidently the Picayune's cores
pendent desires to convince himself of
the actual and practical workings Of
the silver standard as compared with
the gold standard. China being a
silver country, and the United States
being on a gold basis, financial tran
sactinns between the " ought to
furnish al object lesson which would
be interesting ia the ardent advocates
Of free silver coinage.
It was recently related in a New
York paper how a Chinaman, desiring
to send $1,000 to a relative residing in
Hong Kong, took a thousand silver
dollars to a banker for the purpose Of
purchasing a bill Of exchange on Hong
Kong. As Mexican dollars are the
current money in that part Of the
world, the Chinaman discovered that
a draft upon a Hong Kong bank call
ing for the payment Of a thousand
Mexican dollars cost him less than ak
hundred dollars, although the intrin-
sic value Of the silver III the Mexican
dollar he desired to purchase was
greater than the metal in the American
dollars.
The Mexican dollar, which is the
favorite circulating medium in nearly
all the silver countries OF the Orient,
although containing three grains more
silver than the American silver dollar,
is worth but 4 trile more than half Of
the latter, the value Of the American
dollar being fixed, not by its intrinsic
worth, but by the fact that its parity
with gold is guaranteed. Should the
United States adopt free coinage Of
silve:, and the country be placed, as a
result, on a silver basis, as would
undoubtedly happen, instead Of a trifl-
less than five American dollars, as
now, it would require about nine to
purchase a British gold sovereign.

Judging from the number "f bills

anxious to press their claim.
B~y-ihe-bye, would it not be a great
saving Of time to pass il general law
on the subject at once and lie done
with it. The manne Of bringing ac-

The Anti-pool bill is givin. the
Legislators much trouble. The unfa-
vorable report Of it made by the judi
ciaiy committee has evoked 50 mncli
adverse criticism that there is Il prob
ability Of its being recDnsidered. 1t
is not thought probable, however,
that it will become Il law at this SEES
sion.
Anticipation bills have been intro
duced in the house but it looks as
though they will share the fate Of the
anti pool venture. The legislature
seems to be fighting shy Of All such
legislation.
OF course there is a bill before the

While on this subject we cannot
f0rbear to call attention that we stand
badly in need of additional legislation
to free laborers from the plantation
stores order system. If the laborer is
worthy Of his hire, as a pretty good
authority has assured US. lie should
get it in hard cash, or Its equivalent,
and be free to spend it where he lists.
He should not be compelled to buy
at s:ch stores as his employer may
designate, where liz is usually made
to pay much higher for the necessa-
ries OF life thai, elsewhere.
Here is a chance for some true re-
former to acquire the everlasting
gratitude Of the laboring masses.
The bill to exempt towns from pay.
ing parish licenses should be passed.
The towns pay enough parish taxes
to meet their just proportion of the
general parish expenses.
