the House at the appointed time. i
had been noticed that Horace Greeley
had heen gliding in and out of the
House and it was known that the New
York editor was ave"se to the proposed
measure. After waiting day or two,
Stevens, who never minced words,
arose and substantially said: Mr..
Speaker, a bill was introduced recently
which had the approval OF majority
OF the members of the House, but after
having passed examination by the COM
mittee to which it was referred, it

FEDERAL CENSORSHIP.

Two Richmond newspaper publishers
have been indicted by federal grand
Jury for sending unfit matter through
the mails. This matter related to the
Beattie wife-murder trial.
We agree with the New York World
that the Postoffice Department is be-
coming extraordinarily active in 'he
censorship OF publications. 1t does
not stop with what needlessly outrages
the common sense of decency. 1t ex-
tsndsy as possibly in this case to the
publication Of disagreeable matters re-
lated to the administration OF public
Justice. 1t presumes to exclude from
the mails the report OF q social vice
commission in Chicago, whose whole
purpose and effect must be regarded as
salutary. 1t is making q great agency
for prosecuting minor criminal oftenses
within the exclusive jurisdiction OF the
states. For while it may be we'll to
exclude from the mails the fraudulent
circulars OF palpable cheats there is no
set-rich- quick concern that is not
amendablc to the laws of the state in
which it operates.
Few newspapers are strong enough
financially to stand up under a threat
ened government prosecution. 10
most of them the terrorism OF postal
censorship could easily be made crush
ing. Aud to men seeking the posses
sion or the perpetuation of power the
tamptation to use such terrorism might
become, with habit, irresistible. me
business of the postal service is to carry

THE UPRISING IN CHINA.

The uprising in China, following

OF the people OF the country want a

BUYING AND SELLING CHILDREN

Berliners are shocked by the an
nouncement, apparently on good au.
thority, that q regular trade 10 children
OF both sexes is going on in their midst.
The announcement is made by Sis
ter" Helene Arendt, who was for six
years IN employee OF the police IN
Stuttgart, and has just concluded an
investigation OF Berlin conditions at the
instance of the Society for the Protec,
ton OF Women and Children. Sister
Arendt claims ability to prove that in
Berlin Children are regularly bought
and sold at prices ranging from So to
50 500 and more and are being sent to
foreign countries for various purposes
without let or hindrance by the Berlin
police. Many of the children, after
being taken over on payment OF lump
sum, are dispatched to Paris to find
shelter in French orphanages at the
cost OF the French taxpayers.
Nothing is more common, accord
ing to Sister Arendt, than for children
to be taken in adoption for large sun
| of from 500. to 81 ,25O, and then de
liberately starved to death or caused
mysteriously to disappear
1t ia we'll known in Berlin, where the
prospects OF a dowerless girl ever get
ting married are comparatively re-
mote, that enormous numbers of lille
gitimate children are annually put ou
OF the way in some illegal and under.
hand fashion, and every stranger must
be struck by the extraordinary quaint.
