BIYENING BULLETINS
Sburs4ay, January 21, 1889.
TILE RECEIVER or 'FAXEN.
We have watched, with much solicitude
sad interest, the progress of the bill for the
continuance of the present ineusnbmt in the
offlee of Receiver of Taxes. The merits of
this case are not generally understood by the
people, and are briefly these : Mr. Peltz was
nominally defeated at the last election by a
majority of 238. This small vote will be de
monstrated to be fraudulent, long before the
general results of the contested election cases
are decided. But, for the sake of conveni-
%co and economy, Mr. Peltz's case has
bOen included with those of the other
ollices,"„ in some of which there are much
Larger majorities to overcome. Ills suc
cessor, under any circumstances, cannot take
Lis office until the 28th of this month, and
night not be able to hold it for more than a
day or two. But within that time, Mr.
Malloy would remove the whole staff of
trained clerks and collectors, who, it is al-
leged, cannot be re-instated in less than a
year. The confusion that wou , dl thus be
produced in the office, is held by the friends
of the bill to beso sertoue as to justify the
special legislation now being agitated at liar
*burg. This we believe to be an impartial
slitemeht of the facts of the case.
There are some very plausible - features to
this bill, and yet, with every desire to see
Mr. Peitz firmly and speedily secured in the
office to which the people have re—elected
him, we cannot but entertain grave doubts of
She propriety and policy of this bill. The
opinions which have been candidly expressed
by the independent portion of the Republican
press have had so much weight with our
legislators as to make the bill much better
than it threatened to be. - As it has passed
the Rouse, Mr. Peitz is to renew his securi
ties, and to pay over the receipts of the off i ce
SO the Receiver appointed by the Court, sutr--
ject to the issue of thee, pending contest.
.Itheselwo amendments divest the proposal
Itsislation of its most dangerous and ob
.jeetionable features, and it is only on account
of the precedent to be established, and the
principle involved in it, that we* are con
.trained to question the propriety of the act.
quite apart from the merits of the case itself',
.are the methods by which the passage of the
bill is being seemed. Such advocacy as it
&Rived, yesterday,at the hands of Mr. E. W.
/Davis of this city, would damage the moat
immaculate bill that was ever drafted.. That
gentleman's tirade against the Republican
press of Philadelphia is entirely undeserving
of note or comment. Be seems quite iucapa
bla of appreciating the fact that the Republi
.cal press is not the tool of its party, but the
.exponent of its principles. Mr. Peitz, we
havegood cause to know, has no desire to see
tbis , bill fought through in any such style as
this,,,and the Republican party, at arge, is
blessed with tool arge a measure of pllitical
virtue to approve, blindly, every measure
which may be brought or ward in its name.
]To bill should ever pass muster before the
Legislature which' cannot fairly do so upon
its own.nierits. and he does has party no g god
service whn seeks to promote legislation zpon
:my. outer
We. heartily desire Mr. Peltz's success, and
should deplore the disorganization which
would ensue from Mr. Melloy's occupation oi
the office for a single day. if it can be averted
by any legislation that does not actually
iisusecnd the spirit of existing laws, we
think the gravity of the emergency would
yastify the ,most liberal construction of those
btwe. .But we are very sure that no respect
able,portion of the Republican party will
endorse or tolerate either the spirit or the
principles of the speech by which Mr. Davis
yesterday urged the passage of this bilL
MIME ,LAW ore ruzinotietyaru
The,English papers are engaged in a hot
idiseassion of a bill lately introduced into
Farliament providing for the abrogation of
the law of primogeniture. This law, which
bad its foundation in principles established
at the thne.atheliorman conquest, has been
.concisely defined thus,: If a man dies p)s -
messed of real estate, of which he has absolute
awnersbip, without having made any dispo
radon of it by his last will, the whole descends
to his heir at law; and this heir, is that one of
Ids representatives who is the eldest male
ffimoog those who are in the same degree of
kindred. As far as we can ascertain, from
very meagre information, the repealing bill
provides only that in case a man dies in
testate, the law shall divide his property
equally Mon hie children. It does not in
terfere with the right of an individual to leaVe
liis property to any one of his heirs whom lie
may select for the favor.
This is the first attack made upon aritto
erratic privilege by the first Parliament that
represents a great, pa'rtion, of - the common
people. That aucbo propositkin should
be, received with - favoviry a large claw or
intelligent Englishmen, and should find advo
'cates in Parliament and with the influential
press, is very strong evidenee of the presence
of democratic leaven in English polities of
the present day. Of course, all the
,champ;-
one of the bill are, upon the'extreme liberal
side, while conservative organs and leaders
are violent in their denunciations of it, and
argue from it the total destruction of the
whole labile of British government, and the
subversion of that sacred fable, the British
constitution. We, who are accustomed to a
fairer system of laws, perceive in
the proposition only an effort to return
to - a natural and juster condition
of things. The individual who, for the sake
of perpetuating his name or of keeping his
property undivided, bestows all his wealth
upon one of his children, and leaves the rest
beggars, commits an act of injustice that IS
little better than a crime; and the law that
performs a like service for him is not less in
iquitous. Englishmen of the middle and
lower classes begin to recognize this fact and
the evil results which flow from it. The re
cent examples of the hurtful consequences of
the possession of immense wealth by young
noblemen, have been very numerous; and
the burden of having to provide for younger
sons, who are too proud to work, has grown
very heavy of late years. This bill is the
first article of a new popular creed. It is the
earliest protest of the people against a
system that has produced corruption and
extravagance in Church and Btate. ntrinsi
cally it is of small consequence. It will have
but little immediate effect upon the time
honored custom. In the event of its passage
men will simply be compelled to do by will
what the law now does for them. If pro
perly holders choose to leave their wealth to
their eldest sons, they still can do so. Bat
this bill removes the corner-stone of the
edifice,,and it will gradually crumble away
piecemeal. When the sanction of law is
withdrawn, and the subject is open to free
discussion, there will be a keener and more
wide- spread perception of the injustice and
cruelty of the system; Lnd, one after another,
=titled property holders will yield their pro
judices fur the sAie Of their children.
Of course it is not to be expected that the
nobility will depart from the system of pri
mogeniture. Their power, wealth, position
end influence depend, in a great measure,upon
the preservation of their names and their
property intact; and while they have the pri
vilege, they will give all to their eldest, male
heirs. For this reason it is very doubtful if
the bill will pass the House of Lords; If it
does, it will be but the beginning of a series of
measures equally liberal and radical. But even
if it does not, the matter will not end there.
The lords , ,,were compelled to yieli to the
popular demand for an extension of the fran
chise, anftnow that the right of suffrage is in
the bands of the people, it will not be possi
ble for any body of men, however powerful,
to obstruct their wishes long.
!SEX 0.11b11160N.
Even in a Republic, it is no uncommon
thing for men elected to office to forget their
responsibility to those who sent them. And
Ibis seems to be especially the case in legis
lative assemblies. A body of men meet to
gether with a large amount of power placed
in their bands; they cannot be immediately
called to account for anything that thyj d
a certain amount of intoxication accompa
nies the elevation, and an idea theA f they are
better and know more than those they left at
lu,me. Sometimes this reaches the extent of
believing themselves necessary to their con
stituents, even to their whole State. When
this last idea takes possession of a man, there
is no limit to the absurdities that he may
commit, and under this idea acted the seven
traitor Senators who are responsible that
Andrew Johnson is the President.
We regard the failure to convict Mr.
Johnson in the light of a serious calamity to
the nation, not merely in the present, but as an
example in the future. No one can read the
remarks of the fathers of the Constitution at
the time of its adoption,without being satisfied
that they expected and intended the impeach
ment of a President for the one hundredth
part of the offences that Johnson has com
mitted. It was expreably said by them,when
the question of giving a pardoning power to
he President was under discussion, that an
improper use of this power would be grounds
for immediate mpeachment. What would
they have said could they have anticipated•a
President who would make t his special
business to pardon counterfeiters as soon as
convicted
Now,especially,these reewant Senators are
responsible for the amnesty which they gave
Mr. Johnson the
publish for the contidued persecution cf the
Unionists at the South. It is, therefore, with
no small satisfaction that we see punishment
fall upon one of these offenders. Henderson
has been replaced by Carl Schurz, ana so, we
trust, will the rest, one by one, be succeeded
by men who will better remember their duty
to those who send them.
The English criminal code, at no time
remarkable for the merciful character of its
punishments, has recently been made more
cruel by having the penalty of the lash affixed
to certain classes of crimes. English ex
changes come to as filled with descriptions of
finning inflicted upon criminals; and while
the details hick some of the disgusting fea
tures which distinguish the operation of the
system in Delaware, they are suffi,riently
shocking to those who had hoped that Bag
land had abolished the act forever. Of course
the advocates of corporal punishment rejoice
that Englishmen have thought it necessary to
return to the system, and they find in the fact
an argument for its continuance in this coun
try. But humane men will hardly be ready
to follow English precedent in the matter of
penalties for crime. A code of laws which
imprisons a child for a month for stealing a
hedge stake, and, as in a recent case, confines
a starving man at hard labor for three months
for taking a carrot from the ground and eat--
leg it, is not likely to find many admirers
among men who believe that human justice is
unjust miters it is tempered with mercy.
The arguments against the lash „are so
numerous and powerful that every 6ivilized
nation upon earth has abolished it. England

other, this objeethA tgone %MN be sufficient:
that it places'in the bands of a'aberiflYoMoer
a.discriminstlig power that should, not exist
-away from a — court. Wlio is di
rected to whip a convict. With sixty lashes,
can make the ptiniehmeht farcical, or he can
take the life of the victim. The law cannot
regulate the force of the blow; and 'so after
trial, verdict and sentence, it mats at lust with
'a single irresponsible individual to determine
the degree of the penalty. It might as rea
sonably be given to a' jailor to decide whether
his prisoners shall remain in his ore one
month or twenty years. The law only se
cures the victim in the clutches of this small
autocrat.
Some one, apparently in the interest of
President Johnson, has been making re
searches into,the history of Presidential in
augurations. The object has been to ascer
tain whether the custom of-the, retiring Presi
dent's accompanying the President elect has
always prevailed. It is said to _have been as
certalned that it never was done nntil the in
auguration of President Van Buren, when
Jackson rode in the carriage with him to the
Capitol.
It is earnestly to . be hoped Mit President
Johnson will put - 'himself among the pre-
Jacksonian Presidents 111 respeatito this ens
tom. It cannot be-pleasaut_to himselfto be
driven through' Penneyliattia Avenue to
see Grant inaugurated. Nor will Gen
eral Grant feel very coinfortable with
such a companion in the parade. Besides
this, people cannot help remembering the de
plorable and humiliating exhibition of himself
made by Johnson at the inaugiralion of 1866,
and it would not be agreeable to the assem
bled dignitaries in the Senate Chamber to
have him appear there on the next 4th Of
March. At all events; if he insists upon
figuringp the parade and in the ceremoniii,
it is hoPell that some of his personal friends
w ill keep a close watch over him, so that
there may be no repetition of the scene of
865.
In an uncalled for attack upon our editorial re
marks upon the Chestnut Street Theatre, the
Pre this morning "confesses that it cannot
fathom the depth of the meaning" of the artiele.
Tide- is perhaps duo not so much to the want of
lucidity in the article as to the existence of a cer
tain irtelleetual deficiency in the Press office.
The article in question was quite clear enough to
be readily understood by the avcraxo mind.
