There Are Many Others.

These are only few OF the errors OF the
legislature; enough merely 10 show the
danger 10 good government OF incompetent
management. The lower house was par
ticuiariy unstable and dangerous. One
writer present described its work as fol-
lows: The lower house OF the legislature,
during greater part OF the session. was
apparently cross between a country de-
batting society and a mob. Bills were de-
bated at an endless rate paAed. reconssd-
cred. debated again and killed; reconstd-
cred. debated again and passed. IN be-
wsldering manner. until II was almost i'm
possible to keep track Of the diepo&uon OF

The voter must soon make his choice In
the selection OF the members Of the le9fs-
lature. Good government demands that
men be selected who are responsible to the
party they represent. and through that
party to the people. Fusionists have shown
their utter disregard for party promises or
pledge9 Dis,oyal TO Their party. they
were diaoyal to their people. No further
confidence should be reposed in them.

Minor Matters of Detail Must Be
Discussed.
Washington, Dec. 3.-While it is. be-
ginning to be recognized that the
chances are against the conclusion Of
the " ork Of the peace commissioners in
Paris in time for the Americans to take
the steamer of the 9th for home. the
officials are not discouraged at the out

proceedings Of the commission admits
of d reasona bic explanation. For in
stsnce, there has been some difficulty in
reaching an agreement as to the dispo-
sition of the public property in the Phil
ippines. including war material. guns
and stores. It seems. however, likely
now that the commissions viii agree
TO adopt a plan for the disposition Of
these claims, based upon the procedure
thar governed IN the case OF the Span
ish properties in Puerto Rico. It will
not be necessary. it is hoped, to send
q Joint evacuation commission to Man
ia. as was done in the evacuation Of
Puerto Rico. but simply to adopt the
plan laid down by the Puerto Rican
commission
Tt is surmised the american commits
sioners have been much more concern
ed by Spanish overtures looking to the
allowance OIL eNceDllOnal advantages
for Spanish commerce with Cuba and
Puerto Rico than about other matters
of negotiation which really seemed to
be OF larger Importance. The explana-
ltion of this is the realization on the
part Of the commissioners that any
Fgreement on their part to concede
Such special advantages might not only
arouse the opposition Of the commercial
classes Of the United States, but bring
upon the United States government
series Of demands from the great COM
nercial nations of the world with which
we have treaty relations for the allow
ance Of similar concessions under the
operation Of what is known as the most
favored nation clause in those treaties.
Much of the feeling exhibited by the
German press towards the United

completed the drafts of several of them.
Among them is one for opening for ap-

The second bill prepared by the sena-

provides that all the rest of these lands
shall be thrown open to settlement.
The third bill grants to the several
states of the Union the right to take
sections of lands from any abandoned
military or other reservations, to fill
the land grants made to the several
states.
Still another measure provides for
the establishment of an assay Office
