TO DRAW HANGS or ANARCHY.

The duty before congress is = strengthen the laws against the abuse of this fundamental American right: ;o define more distinctly the line be- tween liberty and license: to throw around the person Of the president . ditiCnal protection against assassina- tion and in every rational and effective way consistent with the Constitution and lts guarantees to tear anarchy out of American soil by the roots. To this end four practical laws are well within the power of congress to enact:
 ! Prnishing with death any attempt upon tn. presidents life. whether such attempt fails or succeeds.
 2. Providing for the banishsmnt of every -avowed or cieariy proved anar- chis; to some island in the Philippines. just as France used to exile her 'lespeT- ate felons to Cayenne. and Engla ld Lars 10 Botany Bay.
 g. Making all anai chist societies UT lawful. and providing for their destruc- tiun by suitable penalties for all their officers and members
 1. Excluding anarchist immigrants from admission to this country and providing suitable tests for their dis covery.
 All these measures can be framed W ithin the Constitution and together they would effectually draw the fangs of anarchy.-New York World.

GREATEST HUNTING GROUND.

While we are told, on one hand. that India is overcrowded with people to such an extent that the land is unable to feed them except on the scantiest diet. we read. on the other hand, that the wild animals which. in other coun- tries cannot exist in company with mankind are both numerous and de- structive in India. The statistics of 1899. just published, show that in that year no fewer than 27.5S5 persons were killed by wild animals. Including 24. 169 who died from snake bites and Sg5 killed by tigers; while 9S,6S7 head of cattle also fell victims. The statements are astonishing; but as they are off, cial. and evidently made with care, they must be accepted as true. Many deductions may be made from them. one of. which is that despite it's teeln- ing population. India must still be the grandest hunting ground for big game in the world.-Philadelphi Public Ledger.
