In 1506 the public debt reached the euor- mous urgregate of two and three- quarter billions, the highest point at- taine 'oday it amounts to one hil- lion and ninety-six wiilion dollurs, u reduction of one billion six hundred and soventy-seveu million dollavs in twenty-threo years. The debts of cach of the five great powers of the old world double und treble this sum, with the German states in the lead, and is even exceeded by Spain. While the Unitel States has steadily decreased taxes as woll us the debt, in Europe debt and taxes are increasing at an alarming rate to incrense and maintuin armies the greatost the world has ever seen. Peuceful and prosperous, free from entangling allinnees, but ready to maintain our rights agaiost all eomers, we cun justly claim to be the most fa- vored nation on Wbe planet. ing its THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. President Harrison did not consider brevity in writing his first message to congress. But voluminous as the docu- ment is it will repay careful perusal, and it will undoubtedly be very gener- ally commended as a judicious and able state paper. There is ho ambiguity in the president’s treatment of the surplus and Yevenue questions, He says theso matters should have the immediate at- tention of congress with a view to reduc- ing the receipts of the treasury to the needs of the government, Ho rightly regards the coliection of moneys not required for public use as imposing an unnecessary burd, upon the people, while the accumulation of money 1 the ional treasury isa source of disturb- te business, besides com- e course to methods for getting it into circulation, which the presi- dent regards as of very auestionablo propriety. One of s is the lonning of public funds to the banks, which is de- 'l to unauthorized and rous expedient that ought not to Ve further ewployed. A revision of the tarifl Inws is recommended both in their administrative features and in the schodules, and it is suggested that the inequalities should be adjusted and the free list extended 50 as to include sach articles as do not come into injurious tition with home products, The president would maintain the protece tive character of tho tariff, but he obviously thinks this may be done and still permit a veduction of duties. What he tersely under this head phinly voints a way for the majority in con- gross in aealing with this question, and it gives g wee to the country that so far as the influenco of the admiu- istration extends, it will usod for a revision of the tariff that will be an comy be give relief to the peopte. The presi- dent thinks the tax on tobaceo might be removed, and also the tax on spirits used in the arts and in manufacturing, ifsufe provisions can bo made against fraud. Those who advocate the re- moval of the whisky tax will get no support from the administration. Regurding silver the president conservative gronnd. : country, being a large producer of “this metal, should not. diseredit it, but he thinks it clear thatif the coinage of ilver were made [ree at the present ratio the difference in the bullion yatues of the gold ana silver dollars would be taken accountof in commercial transac- tions, and he approhends that this re- sult would follow any considerable in- crease of the present rate of coinage. Reference is made, with pactial ap- proval, to the plan propesed by the sec- of the treasury of issuing grain; deposits of bullion in the treasury, e is nothing in the reference of dent to this subject encoura ing to those who advocate increa: tho coinage, and it is made ver, that any attemplt to institute fr age will ng plain e coin- the opposition of the ad- ministration. That proposal may there fore be regavded as disposed of, and the advocates of more silver must make choice between raising the coinage up to the maximum amount now vrovided for in the law of 1878 and the plan of issuing certificates on deposits of bull- ion. Of the two the latter is obviousl the more desirable since it would fur- nish a basis of currency quite as safo as the silver dollars and there would be a saving of the cost of coinage. It is not to be doubted that when this plan is given carveful consideration it will be generally accepted as the simplest and most effnctive way of solving the silver problem, and its ultimate adoption is highly probable. The president strongly favors a thor- ough system of coast defenses, remarlk- ing that “the sccerity of our coast citios should not vest altogether in the friendly disposition of other nations.” He makes a very earnest plea, also, for a liberal policy that will encourage the establishment of steamship lines, The inferiorty of our merchant marine is declared to be humiliating to the tional pride and hurtful to the national prosperity. The method by which the president would encourage steam:hip construction is in lineral approy tions for ocean mail service, which, while operating us a subsidy to the ex- tent that the cost of the service should exceed what it could be for by alveady established lines, would bo less repugnant 1 the people than a system of direet subsidies, All that the presi- dent says as to the, dssivability of creat- ing o merchant marine as a means of extending our commerce and of the expoediency of hay- ing merchant steamers which an emergency could readily be con- verted into effective ships of war, will be ve geuerally concurred in, and there will be no great opposition to any liberal policy for attaining this that is not a direct subsidy. The country can alford to pay its own shipowoers well for an oceun mail service, and generos- ity in this direction would not be widely objected to if the results wore satisfu tory, but popular atiment will not tolerute the granting of direct sub- sidies, which once done would become a burden upon the government which it would be found very diflicult to remove, done What the president says rogarding | eivil sevvice reform ought to satisty the most aedent of the veformers. He pro- poses toenforce the law firmly und impar- tially, and he says that the fuct of somo of the provisions of the law having been fraudulently evaded is not a good reason for demanding its repeal, but suggests rather a relorm in its sdwinistration. The president has been most vigorously eriticized by the | extreme veformers and quite as heartily | condemned by those who are opposed to the reform. His reference to this sub- jeet in his message 15 a0 answer to both these classes of fault-finders which ought to silence them. The president’s troatment of the southern question will be approved by all ropublicans, and should be by every citizen who desives that all citizens shall be protected in their constitutional rights. The president does not recom- mend any extreme legislation regarding federal clections, but he thinks the partial and qualified supervision of these elections now provided for by law may be so strengthened and extended as to secure better results tbhan can bs at- tained by a law taking all the pr ot such elections into federal control. The president insists that the negro in the south should be protected in the ex- ercise of his civil vights and in his rela- tions to the federal government, and he urgos it as ono of the highest duties of the executive and congress to wisely and firmly vse all the powers they con- stitutionally possess to secure to all the people the free exercise of the right of suffrage and of every other right under the constitution and laws of the United State he prasident’s position on this subject is eminently faiv, sound and judicious, A QUESTIONABLE PRECEDENT. 1f the decision just rendered by one of the lo courts of Utah, whereby Mormon aliens, who were known have tuken the ondowment oath, are declaved ineligible to citizenship, is sustained by the court of last resort, Mormon domination in Salt Lake City and in the territory will soon be o thing of the past. The issues involved touch somo of the fundamental principles of republican forms of government, and it is doubtful whether the supreme court of the Uniten States would sustain a new de« partu that might establish a very dangerous precedent, Under the in- tenso prossure of anti-Mormon opinion, and in the heat of a political contest, the lower courts of Utah mny have passod the boundaries that have been sot by the founders of our gov- ernmet in the will of rights that prohibits religious tests, and guarantecs to ench man the right to be considered innocent of any crime until he has been adjudged guilty after due trial by a jury of his peers. Our naturalization laws are Congress cannot legall different mode of naturalization fo. Mormon aliens than it does for aliens of other ereeds, whatever their nationali- ties may be. Any act that makes velig- ious belief a test for nequiring citizen- ship would be unconstitutional on 1ts face. Treason agninst this government cannot bo presumed. Men may talk what they please and believe what they please. If taking the endowment oath malkes them conspirators against th government, as the Utah court declar they caunot be disfranchised as a bodv, but they ch individually be placed on tr and be convicted by the testimony of credible witnesses. If annot be found with proofs 3 action, their right to equal treatment with all other aliens canuot be lawfully abridged. Mere suspicion that Mormons who apply for naturalization intend to be disloyal to the government would hardly constitute proper grounds for refusing them the same right to become Amevican citizens that is accorded othor aliens. 0 uniform.

It was also declared as the sense of the meet- ing that the British policy ought to be to u\" d any entanglewent in continental quar- rels. dstone inspired great enthusi inite exposition of the liberal p sid Ircland is the leading question of the day and that the tories would have been con- verted to the liberal view of the subject by this time but for toe dissident liberals. The split in the iiberal party he said would not have occurred except for the general ambi- tious of some tories and their ullics who de- sired wore to form & national party than to do political justice. He severely arraigned uniouists on this point and said the *'plan of campaign’ wis a uccessary conscquence of the government’s refusal to grant proper iof to ireland. There was, he said, le crime in Ireland than in England, He was of the opinion. that the country had clearly xpressed the desive that there should be a change in the adwigistration of Ireland aud the liberals might look t the future with confidence, Gladstone said the only reason for the ox- istence of the dissidenis as a party is tho anti-Irish feeling. 1t was the cause of their destiny that they were chaiued to a_wheel. They must revolve or stop with it and could not determine things for themsolves. It be- hooves them ta cousider well their position in the light of the knowledgo that with the scttlement of the Irish question tiey will be extinct as a party. THEY ALU GET LEFT.

The grant was made originally to the Portage & Super- 1or Railway compauy, consisting of 400,000 acres of land heavily timbered. It wus about to lapse because of the nou- fulfillment of the counditions of the agreement on the part of the company. ‘the companies above namea set abouy securing the forfeited grant. If all entered a contest no one would get the grant, henco it was agreed to let the Omaha company take it and then divide the spoils. The Omaha company gobbled the grant, but when the ottier compdnies sought their share stood them offt. The lower court. decided £gainst the Omaba company, which thereupon demurred on he grouud that the contract was a *lobby contract” and aganst_public policy.
