The bill for the relief of the crimi nal insane, introduced by Senator bpeight, simply makes an appropri ation of fb,000 to pay tho deficiency aused by the last General Assembly to make provision for their maiuten- ' a::ce.

" ' At 11 o'clock the special order: The bill to amend the code and in crease the salary of the governor from $3,000 to $4,000 was then tak en up. Judge Graham of the special committee filed a minority report, to the effect that the increase of sal ary could not apply to the incom ing governor, and the object of the bill would be defeated. The report was in the nature of a law brief, be ing an elaborate legal argument, citing Supreme court opinions, against the legality of the incoming governor taking additional salary.

THE REFORMATORY. Some Reasons Against Its Establish ment. Mr. Editor: Kindly allow me space in the columns of your paper to set forth in order, a few reflec tions in regard to a reformatory, a question now agitating themmds of many good people over the State. At first blush, it would appear cru el, as well as inhuman, to offer ob jections to anything looking to the reformation of criminal youths. Reformation means change from worse to better. Now would it not be wiser, more philosophical and a great saving of valuable time and jricious opportunity, as well as preventing many miserable failures, o cast about and hud, if oossibie, the crime producing cause, and re move the cause, one or many, if pos- ible? .t hen the effects would cease. Prevention la a good ining. . it is economical and valuab.Q, . tor an I O'ince of it is worth more, a .id is ! easier of application, than a pound j of reformatory cure. Besides there i is an idea involved in the curative or reformative process, needless to be more tnan alluded to in passing. The physician who would treat symptoms, when the cause might be discovered and removed, wouid be justly termed a quack. The same principle holds in legislation. Now let us look about, take the temperature aud examine the body politic carefully, with an unpreju diced mind, and see ii there be not some general offending eau-&, that gives rise to this epidemic of youth ful,crime. In the first place, there is a lamentable laxity and failure in family government and training. This sad failure leaves a generous soil for the planting of any seed the devil may see proper to put there; and it grows as the ill weed does without cultivation. This moral obliquity cannot be rectified by State legislation, only indirectly. The State may and ought to repeal any law regulating, as well as legal izing any traffic, be it ever so re munerative, that is justly: charge able with three-fourths of all the crimes committed inths State. This charge stands against the liquor traffic uncontradicted. It is stated that the dispensary in Cumberland county in a very short while has reduced crime fifty per cent, and increased the school fund latgely. Now if you want more money and less crime and pauper ism, there is one way to obtain what you want. If it be true as stated that a large per cent of crime is traceable to li quor, why advocate a reformatory and leave unmolested the traffic that causes the trouble, the loss and the ruin complained of? Echo asks, why? Certainly no one would advo cate the building of Pasteur insti tutes or hospitals for the cure of rabies, and at the same time insist that the dog 1 must go unharmed, wearing the State's collar as the badge of his security, and the State's approval. These cases are parallel, and being so make the reformatory idea ridiculous, if not worse. . II. China's Point of View. Prince Chun Talks oi the Chinese Problem. Pekin Dispatch, Jan. io. Prince Chun, a brother of the Em peror, who is now in Pekin, and in whose honor the Germans will hold a review, saj's that though he does not represent the court t llicially, he knows his brother's sentiment is iu favor of returning to Pekin. Indeed, she Emperor .w rote to Prince Cuing rcceauy and asKed ir h:s apartments were in a lit state for his early, re turn. Prince Chun says the Chinese have a side to-question.The foreigners do not seem to realize that China ob jects to the maintenance of the lega tion guard as more than a purely temporary measure, because therejs no necessity for it. The Uoxer movement, he asserts, was a purely patriotic one, meaniug China for the Chinese. For many years nations begged for trading privileges, hay ing obtained which and waxed rich froniithe profits thereof, they forced undesirable treaties upon China, with threats of confiscation of the choicest parts of the country. 'The slightest riot has been made the oc caion to acquire territory and ob tain valuable concessions. Natural ly, even a peaceable people will turn at last. The people .of China, Prince Chun further declares, have been gradually worked up over the recent loss of territory at Wei Hai Wei, Port Ar ii j i i -i i mur auu eisewnere, ana also over the granting of rights and honors to Catholic missionaries by officials. All Oriental nations are liable peri odically, tne same as individuals, to run amuck: The Chinese, according to Prince Chun, have behaved no worse than did the French during the celebrated revolution. The Chi nese, he says, are the mo&t peaceable race on the earth, and such trouble as recently occured is not likely to nappen again tor centuries. He be lieves that the Emperor is friendly to toreigners wno desire to preserve the integrity of the empire. He says that it is a mistake to attribute un limited power to the Empress Dow ager, though she naturally has that influence with the Emperor which the Chinese always concede to re lations who are their seniors, and which is beautifully shown by their veneration for their ancestors.

Washington Dispatch to Constitution. There is friction between Senator Hacna and the republican leaders of the senate who comprise what is known as the steering committee. Senator Hanna does not at all like some of the:suggestiou.s that have been made to him relative to the amendment of the ship subsidy bill, and he threatens to take the bill out of the committee's handsand endeav or to get it through the senate him self. . Senator Aldrich, chairman of that committee, has told the Ohio senator that the committee will be glad to be relieved from the respon sibility of engineering the bill through, and that he can take it if he wjants to do so; but Sqnator Han na knows chat the only chauce the bill has of passage at this session is in being deftly handled by such ex perts as Aldrich and the other mem bers of the steering committee, and his suggestion of taking it out of their hands is nothing more than a mild blutl. The amendment to which Senator Hanna objects most is one to limit the subsidies t'o ten years. The effect of the bill' as - it stands is to pay subsidies during practically thirty years. Then the steering committee leaders' propose a change calculated to bring about competition for this subsidy by placing all applicants oa the am footing, which they 'claim is not the case under this bill. Senator Al drich does not threaten Senator Hanna, but he does jrive- it as . hi opinion that there is no chance for the passage of the bill, uniess, th -e changes are made: and Senator Han na knows that the hints of the seruv tof from Rhode Island, however mild and innouent they may seem, carry a volume of meaning. Oa uey matter of ' legislation Senator ' 'Al drich 's suggest iou.s of what will or what will-not happen are regarded as the announcement of facts which it will take but a short time to be t'jiiie actual. Wh.ile Senator Al drich does not guarantee to pass the bill with the e'nangos indicated, he thinks it can pass. There is noth ing, he says, in the oft-repe.a ' u threat of.
