NEW LIBEL LAW.
Although thers is frrqnently desnl'
fory diicnssion of tho noeil of an
amended law in this sti; with refer
ence to ltbel,tba rabjtet la pretty much
where it was yntra ago. Mean While
the enterprising lawmikers of arinm
bar of wore progressive states haV4 al
ready done justice to publishers with
ont sacrificing sny of the real rights
of tbe reading public. In Michigan
Minnesota and Georgia t ha editor who
wakes a mistake without bearing
malice is no longer rngtrdedas guilty
beyond possitiiity of vindication or
extnuation. Like other accused per
sons he is at least gi v--n a ohitnea to
establish his InSOOeBM; and his public
fxpression of sorrow, in case of guilt,
is not, as in this s:at, refused admis
sion to the jorv rooms
In three other states, namoly, New
York, Illinois and Wi;consin, the con
certed effort of publishers Is at wcrk
on legislative sentimuiit, in the liopo
of inspiring similar r .run. The pro
posed law which has been drafted by
the Illinois State Editorial association
reflects the beat thought on this sub
ject, and ia similar in import to the
bills contemplate! in tb other two
atates. It is wordsl as follows:
BtOTtOH V That for any nction bronght.
for the publication Of a libel in any news
paper in this Htate, the plaintiff ehall re
cover only actual damnges if a sbnll ap
pear at the trial of such action that kucIi
publication whs made In good faith and
that its falsity was due to mistake or mis
apprehension of tho facts, and that in the
jiext regnlnr issue of said newspaper, nf ier
sucli mistake or inisapprohension was
brought to the knowledge of tho publisher
nr publishers of such newspapers, whether
before or after n unit be brought, a curroc
ttol or retraction be pnblisiiwl inns cou
KDicuous a inaunor and place in said news
paper us was the libel.
Sec. 2. No exemplary or punitive dani

brought for the publication of n libel In
iny newspaper in this s'at.n unless the
plaintiff aball, before bringing initigtra
. m wriiing to tua defendant to iub-
La retraction or correction of tha libel.
II, borore brinzlng suit, allow the

Proof of the publicatiou of such retraction
or correction hall be admissible iu evi
dence under the general isuo in mitigation
of damage and In evidence of the good
faith of tho defendant, provided that the
l et l action or correction shall be pnblisbed
in as oonapleaone a manner uud place in
Said newspaper nswasthe libel.
This law, it ft BeedleM to say,
breat lies tbe very ossnc i of fairuess
Th only real obstacle to ils enactment
is thu presence In nearly ever': reading
community of Irresponsible atnaational
printa, against whom a judgment
would mean nothing, and whoss col
umns are, therefore, subject to no real
iliaciptlqe whatever Beoauaeof th.-si
journallalio quack aheeta, reputable,
honorable andoontoiantlous publishers
are left exposed to annoyanc , petty in
trigue and malicious persecution. It
is an anomalous condition, and it can
not long last, not even in Peanaylvania,
BOCTHtfUl BTATMttBM can stand any
quantity of tally, but fsw col I facts
plainly stated, as iu the oaso of air,

GETTING TOGETHER.
Ic is significant of tbe prevailing
faablon in American municipalities
that a bill has just been paaaed in the
Now York statu senate, with only two
dissenting votes, submitting to popular
vote the proposed annex ttton of lirook
iyn and adjiceut tsrritory to Now
York. Upon an earlier OoOMioO this
proposition to amplify Gotham met
with strenuous resistance, both from
the dominant element iu New York's
municipal government and also from
the majority of tbe citizens whom it
was iulendrd to annex. Now, by ft
curious coincidence, Tammany ring
aten vie with Brooklyn anti-snappers
in favoring th? "greater raetr polis,'
which, if it shall materialise, would
have a population sscoud. ia the list of
the world's great cities, to L indon
alone.
-Much tho sams tendency toward
greuter municipal co-onTitiou ia vis
ible in numerous sm ;li it communities,
to which rnl our own is no exception.
Tims in Troy there ii a very pnistnt
effort to annex West Troy, separated
only by the Unison, and Lansiugburg,
cut oft only by a fanciful legal boun
dary. Altogether, tr.is would make a
city with approximately 115,000 inhab
itants; and the only riasou for the di
vision is the political one that it now
renders possible a greater number of
offices and a larger assortment of
pulls. '' If in Wilkea-Barre the move

This is the spirit that is behind all real

conscience twisted 'ronod to the point
where he oan join in the polloy of in
famy to the liinitod extent of denounc
ing Minister Steven-i for an action
which ho did not take, Apparently
fcjrgetfni of his journal's past expres
sions, the new leader of th Pennsyl
vania Democracy now declares that
"there was no abdication (in Hawaii)
until it was foroed by Minister Stev.mi
in bis precipitate haste to acknowledge
the provisional government." Ma

MR. BLAND'S BILL.
An esteemed subscriber courteously
asks The Tribune to explain "how
the silver that Ilia . S . bill proposes to
deal with accumulated, aud what
Miami proposes to do with the seignior
age; or in other words, what is the
siigniorago and what are they trying
to do with It?'1
In reply, this extract from a loiter
printed in yoaterday'a New York Bun
presents nu approximate estimste:
"Bill H. R. 4.!.-(i. reported Feb. 3.
Congressional Use . i d, p 2 110. pro
poses to direct the secretary of the
treasury to ISSUS ordinary silver certifi
cates of the United States to an
amount equal to the coining valui of
the salver bullion on hand iu ex
cess of the sura of the treas
ury notes issued thsrsfOf and out
standing, Tho secretary's estimate of
this sx.'ess tints to be uv ill ib'.e for cer
tificates ia fifty-five million, one hun
dred and llfty-si:: thousand, Si 1 hun
dred and eighty-on dollars. Against
th sail outstanding treasury notes
there are already coined an I hoi I abso
luteiy idle in the treasury thirty six
million, eighty-seven thousand, two
hundred and elghtyfivs dollars (mint
report for 1809, p. (!), Inasmuch as the
present escrotary rostricts himself in
the redemptions of these treasury notes
to Hold alone, it follows that thssa
thirty six million dollars of standard
silver dollars become immediately
available for redemption of these pro
nosed nw silver certificates, if the
Bland bill is enacted. Section 2 of the
bill directs the coinage of all the re
mainder of tho silver bullion.on hand
as rapidly as convenient, the additional
silver dollars to be deemed available
for silver certificates as rapidly only as
treasury notes shall b retired.''
Tho foregoing extraci answers th
question as to how much thn seignior
age would amount to. As to the mean
ing of the wor 1 seigni jr igo.iti i ts pr 8
ent application, it my bi added that
itjhai reference to tho small pr centage
which tho governm-'nt sets aside, When
issuing treasury silvsr certificates i n
payment for deposited bullion, to pay
'or the coining of that bullion into
tsn lard dollars. This percentage.
Which is a small one, is set aside, in
bullion form, until snch time as it may
become necessary to convert the bul
lion Into coin.

TIME CURES all inequalities. When
anthracite shippers were pinchel by
railway discriminations, tho bitumin
ous shippers laughed. Now that
they're in thofqueezi themselves, it's
our turn fo smile, and tho laugh will
not be lose hearty because it comes

To tho Editor of Tnn TRtBUNX:
Dead BlRIa bis last presidential mes

tion to witnos. publicly proclaims that re
present, or MrKinloy, tin iff dntiSS on ra v
materials radically pr.-veiit our mannfae
turers from OOmpsting in f..r.'igu markets.
Therefore, says our enlightened and far
llghted i.resident, "Away with protec
tion," that we may hsvo free raw mater
ials in favor of our export trade when
Immediately snch vast qnantitles of
manufactured g'ojs will ho cxpnrted
abroad that nevermore will our work
men be idle at home. Hence, the absolute
and pressing necessity of tariff r.-form ot
which he has so devotedly accepted tba
apoetlcahip on tho fat, ealaryof 1)0,030 a
year. And thus ho dedncs his (nmom
free trade-t'onfedn:ntn mnxiin of 'less

workingman'a parallse mnv at. lad.
bo open to American labor. Now, nil
this might saem intensely statesmanlike
the nee plus ultra in line, of
American n.iltieai economy were it
not for Mectlon U of the aforesaid
McKmley bill, which, f r the honor of the
presidential chair, ought to be brought,
even at this latshOdr, to Mr. C leveland'.,
notice, becaiiM. it unfortunately brands on
the fa oe of it the whole Cleveland tariff re
form theory, as the most, outrageous and
barefaced fals ihood polil ically Speaking
that, ever disgraced an American presi
dential message,
And the reason is simi.lo ennugli be
canee Section U fully provides that no
tariff shall exist on Imported raw materials
used by our manufacturers In goods sobs
exported for rale in foreign markets,
Which, in plain EnyHdi, means that all du-tl"-.
BSSStaed Ofl raw inat'-rlals thus used
are refunded to the export. r on goods to
ba eela abroad. Oenseqaently, under tho
Iireront protective tariff, us I have ofti.n
proclaimed, raw materials Ire asfroefrom
all liiti.es as any free trad.- measure can

Whole ho called tariff reform movement,
