J9*i Bill now before Congress con­ templates the prevention of the im­ migration of anarchrists as well at paupers aad criminals. In reference to the anarchists, the report of the committee aocompanylcg the bill •ays: "These disorderly persons do not eome to uphold and maintain our form of government. Their object and pur­ pose is to destroy and tear it to pieces. This class of persons, In the judgment of the committee, ought te be rlgidlj excluded from entering this oouotrj," As some of this class of persons have ^ \ * already landed in this country and are £*=••, a constant menaoe to its peaee and well-being, why would it not be a uood £~\ plan to amend the law so as to give K • fMblle notice to all persons holding to %"*<£ , their views to leave the country in Sixty days, failing in which they, with tbeir minor ohildren, should be shipped to the country from which they emigrated and their property sold to pay tbeir bill.

On Friday the 95th of January, tbe two Hov8esc! the Illinois Legislator* adjourned over till Monday, tbe SSth. There was no quorum present on Moo day. Before the adjournment on Fri­ day the members had so thinned out that no business was transacted. By fSla adjournment, two full working days and at least part of another were lost. The utter disregard of the pub­ lic interest and the demands of doty, and the utter?dl»bonesty, In a pecuni­ ary way of this adjournment, and of the general practice of adjourning over two or three days from the latter part of one #eek to the fore part of the next week, are palpable and flagrant. The people of the State expect a short and economical session, while the mem bers start off by a systematic absence from the capital of fully one-third the time. Thi*censurable practice greatly extends the length of the session, for the adjournments are not only so much lest time, but they demoralize busi­ ness, as a far less volume of business Is transacted during the fragment of the week white tbe houses are In session than would bi transacted in the sane time but for the habits of laziness and neglect created by the periodical ab­ sences from duty. Tbe dishonesty of the system is plain. The members are paid #5 a day for their services, and this allowance was made wi th the ex­ pectation that they would render jj an equivalent In Intelligent labor for their money, not that they would pocket their wages and go on a vaca­ tion one-third of their time. There ought to bo a sense of honor and oi the duty of honesty in the members oi the legislature strong enough to either cause them to work for the money In the spirit of their contract with tbe people or not to take it. This evil of courstf. like other evils, has a cause and origin in an evil back oftt. Tbe system of free railroad passes causes the system of frequent adjourn<aent8. If the members could not get tree rides to tbeir homes and back, they would stay at the capital and finish up the work of the ses­ sion. Yet, the railroads are powerless. The members of the legislature, like highwaymad, commanding them to "stand and deliver." If they refuse to issue passss, sandbag legislation is the result. The legislature makes the dead-head system the condition of keeping its bands oil tbe railroads and of forbearnce toward their Vital interests.--Chicago Journal. .

Breckinridge, the present Democratic Incumbent, an exchange says: Murder for the purpose of consume- ting an outrage on the ballot-box, and to prevent the wrong being righted, is a natural consequence of the Southern methods by which terrorism and violence decide the result at the ALCONOUIN. EDITOR PLAINDKALEK La Moot Bros, gave a part of an entertainment here on Thursday evening ot last week Tbey did not draw a very large atten­ dance. The New England Sapper nnder the auspices of the ladies of the Congrega­ tional Church, passed oft very piaas« antly on Friday evening of last week. The proceeds of the evening were 015.

Heretofore, however, such It will be seld by C. H. Donnelly, spec- tnnrders ha?® usually been perpetrated previous to elections to elections at political meetings, or at the voting places where Republicans have attempted to vote. But where it is a practice to re­ sort to bloodshed as a part of an estab­ lished political policy, there is no Mason why murder should be com- * nsltted atone time more than another. In this case it is evident that Mr. Clayton was getting close to tbe criminal, who had stolen the ballots, ' and was hard on tbe evidence that would have proved him to have been ! elected te Congress oyer his Demo­ cratic competitor. A Democratic assassin assumed the job of defeating ; the ends of justice by putting him out » of the way. It was a crime character- Istle of tbe solid South, and is a new ovldenoe that the patriot tbere who attempts tbe defence of the suffrage . does so at his peril, taking his life in his bands as he enters on his work. MT The Congressional debate on 4 tbe Samoan question has cleared that subject ef much of the mystery with • which It has been surrounded, and has brought out tbe facts in a manner that the general public can understand. No treaty has been vioalated by Ger- ' many; no American flag has been fired on ItttentloBally, nor has tbe interest of any American citizen on those Islands been interfered with. Tbe only question to be decided by Con­ gress is whether in using tbe "good offices" in favor of the Independence of the Simoan government, which tbe United States promises in the treaty with said government, we shall go to tbe extent of makiDg a demand on Germany that might lead to war. The present administration lacked the courage necessary to make the decis­ ion, and have referred it to Congress. The whole matter 1b a tempest in a tea pot anyway. Other Islands In the South Pacific ocean of far more im penance than the Samoan, or, as they are properly knowu, the Navigator Islands, have been taken possession of by European Government without a protest from the United States. This Uttle group of Islands is of se little Importance that they are not mentioned In scarcely any of the Atlases of the world, although they will bo found on til authentic maps of tbe South Pacific ocean. s?= **IP humor, wit and honesty could «a*e," from ibose Ills flesh is heir to, it a good price they would bring in market.
