CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM.
Notwithstanding the general expression of
pnbl'O opinion last fall in favor of a Consti
tutional Convention, empowered to revise and
reconstruct the Constitution of Pennsylvania,
the Legislature has shown no disposition to
provide for such a reform. Several bills have
been presented, but they have apparently
been suffered to sleep, in committee-rooms,
the sleep which knows no waking; and the
habitual hostility to all genuine reform
which. pervades the atmosphere of
Ilarrisburg has stifled a proposition which
promised to relieve the people, purify the
politics of the Commonwealth, and benefit
all its substantial interests. If the legisla
tors wish to establish a valid claim to the
gratitude of their constituents they will yet
make provision for a Constitutional Conven
tion before tbey adjourn, and thus afford an
O portunity for the best men in the State to
roret in council under circumstances which
will enable them to tear tip'tbe roots of exist
ing evils.
As a port of balf-way measure, which is,
however, insignificant in its scope, the Senate
has passed a joint resolution providing for
an amendment to the Constitution making
the State Treasurer elective by the people
instead of the Legislature, and the House
Committee on Constitutional Reform proposes
to do some additional tinkering to the
fundamental law of the Commonwealth
by increasing the number of Representatives
or Assemblymen to 130 each county, no
matter how small, to have one and the bal
ance to be divided equitably among the coun
ties entitled to more than one. This House
amendment also proposes to perpetuate the
present stupidly unjust provision, aimed at
Philadelphia, whioh provides that no city or
county shall eleot more than four State Sen
ators, and thus deprives this city of her
legitimate share of power in one branch of
the Legislature. For that reason, if for no
other, every Philadelphian should op
pose the proposition made ou
Friday last by the House Committee ou
Constitutional Reform; but, in fact, the only
proper action of the Legislature at this time
is to have a Constitutional Convention called
together. The whole constitutional machinery
is antiquated, and unfitted to the require
ments of the times, so that the trivial tink
erings of Senators and Assemblymen, who
can at best devote but a few hours of the
session to constitutional questions, will in no
event do much good. The greatest evil
afflicting the body politic now is the Legisla
ture itself, as it is ordinarily constituted, and
it is folly to expect that the true
remedy will be evolved, directly, from
the sore spot of the Commonwealth. The
best thing to be hoped for is that there is
enough virtue and intelligence left among the
members to prompt them to give the people
an opportunity to eleot able men for the ex
press purpose of reforming the whole Consti
tion. The ana'ogous movement made a
generation ago was efficacious in eradicating
the peou iar evi s developed up to that time,
and there would be fair ground for expeoting
similar results now. But much more is
needed than a s'ight increase of the chances
of preventing State Treasurers from specu
lating with S ate funds and a slight addition
to the number of legis'ators. There is no
use in doctoring a patient with a few weak
drugs when his whole system is permeated
with a deadly poison.
GEARY.
Govxbnob Geabt has bad enough of the
minor honors of the executive chair of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and he ia
beginning to develop designs upon the Presi
dency. H? apparently proposes to run upon
an independent workingmen's tieket, and to
give both the Republican and Democratic
organizations the cold shoul Jer. This is well,
for Geary's characteristics are too well known
both to the Repu licans and Democrats for
him to have any great hope of obtaining a
nomination from either of them, but if he
can rally to bis support the various trades
unions there may be some ohance that one or
the other of the political parties will take
him up. It will be observed,
however, that there is a very large "if" in
the way, and the men who manage the trades
unions, despite the many foolish things they
have done, are scarcely fools enough to pin
their hopes to such a brainless candidate as
Geary would make. The speech made by the
Governor at Harrisburg on Saturday bristles
with Presidential aspirations, although the
White House is, with the superficial cunning
of a praotised demagogue, carefully kept in
the background. By glittering generalities
about the rights of laber and the oppressions
of capital, Geary in this speech makes a bid
for the suffrages of the workingmen and
for the co-operation of the tradoa
unions; but we fear that when the Presiden
tial nominations are made our pardon
granting Executive will find that the hard
handed men of toil, even if they are silly
enough to put up an independent candidate,
will have sense enough to fix upon some one
besides a mere trading politician, without
brains, without educatien, without a reoord
calculated to inspire . confidence in
his future performances, and, in fine,
without a single qualification for the office,
It is a gratifying fact that hitherto the men
who have sought to nominate themselves for
the Presidency have uniformly failed to do
so, and better statesmen than Geary ever was
or ever will be have lot their vaulting ambi
tion o'erleap itself, and have seen the choice
of the country fix itself upon comparatively
unknown individuals who have been oontent
to remain in the background and to aooept
only snob. honors as are offer
ed them. If Governor Geary
ever had any chances for the Presidency he
has destroyed them by his conduct sinoe he
has been in Lis present potion, for he has
demonstrated in the plainest manner possible
that he is utterly unfitted by nature or educa
tion to perform the duties of any high office
of trust or honor. He has alienated men of
all parties, and it is too late for him to hope
to regain his lost ground by flat
tering the workingmen, for the
workingmen of this country read
the newspapers, and they know that he is not
to be trusted. Having proved such a wretched
failure as Governor of Pennsylvania, it is
terrible to think of the mess he would make
of onr national affairs if he should by any
possible chance manage to become President
of the United States; but suoh a possibility
as this is too remote to be thought of, and we
are pleased to believe that when his present
term expires our ambitious Governor will re
tire to the shades of private life, where he
will have ample opportunities to amuse his
leisure moments by extracting from his legs
those bullets which he bears about with him
as memorials of his warlike career.
VLB A 8 A NT ON 8 PLEASANTRIES.
Oub townsman, General Pleasanton, has
made a discovery that will give Darwinism,
andscienoe generally, a boost such as it may
not get over for a long time. On another
page of this paper will be found some
account of the General's experiments with
blue light upon animals and plants. It
appears that light when transmitted through
blue or violet glass has a strange in
crease of vivifying power, and instances are
given by General Pleasanton in whioh grape
vines, etc., flourished in an unprecedented
manner under the improved treatment. Nor
was the General content with operating upon
inanimate nature. He tried his blue and
purple arts upon the humble but useful pig,
and that creature so thrived under the tinted
sunlight that a genuine educated hog, some
thing quite different from the make-believe
article, mny be confidently expected shortly.
With poultry the same success i
claimed. Particulars are not given, but
we are led to infer that the hens laid
eggs like clockwork, and that
the roosters crew themselves blue in the face.
The strangest experiment made was upon a
calf. It was such a weak calf that its pre
cious life was despaired of, but in twenty,
four hours after being placed under the
General's cerulean-roofed stable it took up
its bed, or some of it, in its mouth, and walked
about with it. A more thoronghly-reoovered
calf than that calf in a few days you could
not find. Aftor detailing the facts of this
experiment, General Pleasanton says: "If
by the combination of sunlight and blue
light you can thus mature and strengthen
animals, you can scarcely conceive of the im
measurable value of this disoovery."
It must be understood that we in no way
dispute or disparage these results. We are
proud that Philadelphia has given one mare
proof that she is the soientifio leader of the
country, and that Pennsylvania has so liberal
and intelligent a body as her Agricultural So
ciety, through which these important discove
ries are certain to receive the attention they
deserve. General Pleasanton winds his
theory up, however, in a tantalizingly abrupt
manner. The first thought of every reader,
in learning ef these wonderful doings, will
be of his own interest and possible share in
this rejuvenation of the world. If this
blue 'ight has so magical an effeot on plants
and n the lower animals, may not man
be expectel to get a little good from
it? It is quite unreasonable that this
mogio ehou'd be reserved entirely for the
cabbage, the goose, the squash, the mule,
and not for the Paragon of Animals. For
ourselves, we will not believe it. We feel
sure that the General builded better than he
knew, and that it is impossible yet to say what
good may not come to the human race through
this improved way of taking its sunlight.
The hypercritical will be ready, of course,
with all sorts of objections. From the in
vention of steam down to the time
of a Paid Fire Department, every new
idea has been assailed with ridicule. The
principal objection to the new philosophy is
easily foreseen, and may be answered once
for all. Briefly, it will not be necessary for
men to live in hot-houses. Such an idea
would not enter the mind of any one search
ing for truth for the truth's sake. More or
less blue glass disposed about the place where
the philosopher abides is . of course neces
sary, but that need not derange in any way
his o'd mode of living. Leaving, however,
these cavillers, who see good in nothing, let
us supply the omissions in General Pleasau
ton's theory, and look at the possible work
ings of the blue light theory.
If tried at Washington we should doubtless
find the most ordinary men springing up,
under the influence of these enlivening rays,
into'energetio legislators, and possibly for
who can limit the wonders of science? into
honest men. It would be an instructive
Bight, that of the Senate or the House, with
its blue ceiling, and the consciousness ever
present that our representatives were volun
tarily developing themselves, and were en
listing the forces of nature to call out their
BluggiBh faculties. That would be a humility
with some point in it. But not
only to Congress could General Plea
eanton's Aureole with propriety be
applied. ThinK what an altogether unique
attachment it would be to the courts! Our
judges, lawyers, juries, and witnesses are
actually suffering, although tbey may not
know it, for this new atmosphere, and it may
even happen that the General's blue glass
will yet so sublimate society that there will
be no need of courts, their supporters or sur
roundings. Blessed day! If the agricultural
Sooiety can do that we ought all of us to be
come honorary members.
Then, to bring this matter down to the level
of our daily lives, it is only necessary for a
man to put a blue skylight in his house in
order to note the most astoaishing pheno
mena in himself and his progeny. The
General has fully matured animals in
twelve months, and as man can do
more than any other creature,
it follows that under the new treatment we
should have human beings of a year talking
politics, joining trades unions, marrying, and
in fact going the whole round of the tread
mill we call life. There is no evading the
logical conclusion of the General's argument
if we once aocept his seductive premises.
Then this most rare Nimbus aots not oaly
upon the physical nature. As it induces with
plants and flowers not only a greater quantity
but a rarer quality ef fruit and fragrance, so
man under its influence may be expected
to shoot into a moral stature
little less than appalling to the degenerate
sense of the present age. The Good Bishop
in Lea Miserable, or the popular G.
Washington himself, could not have held a
candle to the moral completeness of the in
dividual who thinks and' acts on the belief
that Blue is the only Wear. Then conceive
our jails with blue glass roofs. A flippant
person may say "It would be n good thing
for the prisoners." So it would, but not as
you insinuate. No; let one good hour of
sunshine pour through the celestial panes,
and the prisoner would have no desire to
escape. He would be glad to remain where
he felt himself growing in grace every
minute. Or suppose a sudden blast be let in
upon an old bachelor, that worst pest in a
busy world. No sooner does the bachelor feel
it, than piff ! he is off for the old flame he
has lost sight of for many years. In short,
the application of General Pleasanton 's theory
has no limit, and with these hints to s-nide
him, the subject can safely be left to the
reader's imagination.
THE MILITIA TAX.
Otk ventilation of the militia tax swindle has had
the good effect of inducing the individuals who
have charge of the collection and distribution
of the tax to make a statement of receipts
and expenditures. This statement, which we
find in the columns of one of our Sunday con
temporaries, is, we presume, the best that
the assessors and receivers of the
tax are able to Bay for themselves;
and if we accept it as correct.
it only substantiates the general assertions
made in The Evening Telegraph. Accord
ing to the figures given, $22,37(501 were col
lected from May 2, 1870, to May 2, 1871.
One-third of this amount, or $7205 '27, was ex
pended for collecting the tax, and the sum of
$ir,OSO75 was distributed among the several
brigades, leaving a balance on hand of
$213581. It will thus be seen that the ex
penses of collecting the tax absorb one-
third ef the whole amount, an enormous
percentage, and the publio certainly do not
from the balance of the tax get the worth of
the money thus paid to the assessors and col
lectors. The statement referred to makos no
mention of the 15 per cent, which goes into
the pockets of Mr. Pearson, the collector of
delinquent taxes, nor the $2 05 charged by
that gentleman for "costs," which make his
perquisites amount to the nice sum of $220
for every 85 cents paid over by him to the
Board of Division. Taking the figures at their
full value, however, it must setm absurd to
every one that only $22,370 01 should have
been collected by Mr. McCtmmon. From a
reliable source we learn that in 1870 72,407
persons were assessed. These were those
between the ages fixed by law, and it would
be certainly a large allowance to say that of
this number not more than 22,000 were ex
empt under the law. This brings down the
number of those absolutely liable to the tax
to about 50,000, where we placed it in our
first remarks upon the militia-tax swindle.
Now, we want to know why all these 50,000
individuals were not forced to pay the tax as
well as other people? In the first place we
know that the assessment is loosely made,
and in the second place we know that many
persons are permitted to exempt themselves
for totally insufficient reasons, and in the
third place we know that the tax is waived
in many cases where its collection is sturdily
resisted, and the party liable shows a dis
position to make a disturbance. If the tax
is a proper one it should be collected
with strict impartiality, and if it
is not a proper one, it should not be col
lected at all. If it is collected, such official
publio statements of receipts and expendi
tures should be made as will enable the tax
payers to know where their money goes, and
the whale matter should not be left in the
hands of men who are responsible to noboJy,
and who exercise the power of expending
thousands of dollars of the publio money in
secret without being under the necessity of
rendering any aooount of it except
to persons who are as irresponsible
as themselves. If we must have a militia tax,
let it be levied in a proper manner and im
partially upon all classes of tax-payers, and
let it be collected by the regular Receiver of
Taxes, who will inform the publio in a proper
manner with regard to its disposition. The
present tax is what we have called it, a swin
dle, and the Legislature will do the people of
Philadelphia in general and our militia orga
nizations ia particular an essential service by
abolishing it, and by providing a better
method of supporting the home guards.
The New York sensations of last week con
sisted of a somewhat detailed description of
the prooess by which the railway magnates of
that city' victimize ill-fated stockholders, a
disclosure of methods whereby panderers to
vice conduct their operations on a scale com
mensurate in infamy with the grandeur of
the metropolis, and a touching picture of the
universal interest exoited by fears that the
death of the wife of a shoulder-hitter, through
"alcoholism," would postpone a prize
fight. This reoord is worthy of Fisk, Tweed,
and Tammany, and if it is well followed up
by a development of the movement recently
commenced in that city to reorganize sooiety
on the basis established by the Commune in
Paris, the glories of Gotham will shine forth
with a lustre that will well-nih become a self
consuming blaze.
