Now I hut the new president lias de clared against editors as well as bus iness men in the appointment nf postmasters and such, the wonder is, what kind of fellows is he going to appoint. Judge Harry White, of Indiana cnuuty, is again mentioned as a prob able candidate for the Republican nomination for the Supreme Judge ship vacancy caused by Chief Justice Paisuii's resignation. Senator Allison shown that the Fifty-second Congress appropriated 81.026.842 049, or 838.404,866 more than the Fifiy-Grst Congress. It was the fa-hion to h iwl at the Ffty-first Congress and call it the "billion dol lar Congress," when the tact is that Its appropriation fell 812,000,000 short of a billion dollars. But here is a Democratic Cngre;s that gives away almost 827,000.000 more than a billion, and the Democratic press is sileut, except when it tries to ezplaiu the extravagance in an apologetic way. The chances of the Pennsylvania legislst rs being able to secure a free trip to Chicago upon the occasion ol the opening of i he World's Fair are gradually fading away. Chairmen Kidd aud Crawford, of the House and Senate Centennial Affairs Com mittee, visited Governor Pattison for (he purpose of obtaining his views on the question. Hie Excellency gave them ouly slight encouragement. He intimated that it would be unwise for the Legislature to make a special ap propriation fur the purpose. He thought, however, that the World's Fair Commission might be able to squeeze out eoough mouey to pay fur transportation to anr from Chica go, leaving the legislators to defray their other expenses. It is quite safe to say that unless all expenses are paid by the Slate, with a liberal al lowance for incidentals, the Pennsyl vania Legislature will Dot attend the opening ceremonies. The school teachers of New Jersey virtually btdd a life tenure of their positions. A law now in force iu that Siate provdei that all teachers employed in the Slate holding first class certificates, who shall have beeu regularly appointed or elected to their positions, aud who shall have served acceptably in such capacity for a period of two years or more, shall b Id their positions aud con tinue to serve as tetchers during good behavior, and shall not be removed or displaced without their consent, ex cept for go( d aud sufficient cause af ter trial or hearing by and before the County Superintendent, with the right of appeal thertafter to the Stale Superintendent of Public In struction, whose decision shall be fi nal. The law also provides that such teachers shall uot he elected an Dually, but shall continue to serve during the faithful performance of their duties and shall receive just and proper compensation The advent ol a Democratic Pres ident iu the White House is giving the Democratic newspape'S an oppor tuuity to say some severe things about this antiquated structure. There is nothing they can utter in this vein which will not receive the assent of the Republicans. The oo ly objection the latter will raise is as to the delay of the Democrats in tell iug these truths. The inadequacy of the White House as an executive mansion has long been admitted, but while a Republican President occu pied it the Democrats would listen to no suggestions as to enlarging or re building it. Now, however, they are anxious for the needi d improvements, although it sounds a little strange to hear these advocates of Jeffersonian simplicity talking about the White House reception routns and parlors not being as "handsome as limy should he.' Ltul this whole mailer ought to he treated in a rational and unu-partisan manner. A new executive mansion is needed, and the faet that there is a Democratic President ought not to influence the Republi cans to oppose this long-sought im provement. We'll want to seat a Republican there about four yearn hence, and want him to have nice house to live in. The dissrufinns of rascals often brings about good, and a case iu point is furnished by the notorious New Jersey legislature, which has passed a bill forbidding winter rac ing ns a blow at the Gettenberg track, which did not come up with the sup port that the "Duke nf Gloucester'' thought he ought to have from Ihe mausgers of that track. As the witt ier racing at Getteuberg is the most open robbery aud scandalous outrage of morals that exists, there is one point gaiued, and it is to be hoped that the prohibition will remain when the other racing legislation is repeal ed. Derrick The joint committee of Senate and House at Harrisburg, which has beeu laboring with the Baker ballot law amendments, has submitted aud rec ommended a number of changes in the Act. One change consists in the adoption of the Ohio plan of marking he ticket and the abandoning nf the group system. One cross in a party circle at the head of the ballot under the pioposed plan will vote an entire straight ticket. A voter who desires in scratch must place a cross opposite the name ot each and every candi date for whom he desires to vote. Other amendments agreed upon are to strike off the residences of candi dates from the ticket, shorten the time for filing objections and thereby increase the limit allowed for the printing of tickets. The percentage of the total vote uecessary for a par ty nomination is decreased from 3 to 2. This change will let in Prohibi tionists and presumably put an end to their protests against the system. The number of official aod sample ballots is reduced and the County Commissioners are given charge of all of the priuting, for local as well as couuty and State Electious. This Don't Affect I ditnrs of Our Stripe. The reliability of the following of ficial dictum is vouched for by the Washington Post, which knows aud says: l he assertion that editors are not generally to be recognized by the new administration is true. Mr. Cleveland believed that his predeces sor suffered through the charge of havi g subsidised the press, aud be does uot intend to run the same gauntlet. The decision is also to be made particularly applicable to news paper meo who desire to be he post masters in their town. Mr. Bissell has had the names i f some country editors presented to him in connec tion with various pi-stnffices, but has unifurmily declined to give auy en couragement to the office seeker. He lays dowu the principle that in small towns all the utterauces of the news paper over which the postmaster edi tor presides will be regarded as the views of the administration, while nu the other hand all praise of Mr Cleveland's acta will be discounted because it emanates from the recip ient of official favor. Therefore Mr Bissell does not propose to appoint any editors to post masterships, and the presideut will observe the same rule in disposing of the higher of fices. FREE TEXT 1100k S. The pioposition to appropriate one million dollars to buy free text books for the children in the public schools is one that will meet with general ap proval. At this writing the hill has not beeu introduced in the Legists lure, but it is one of the future cer taiuties and it will be pushed to pas sage. The furnishing of text books free to the public school pupils has beeu tried iu a numher of States, and has met with approval and cordial endorsement wherever tried It must meet wilh approval in thisS'ate, aud the Legislature that passes a bill pro. viditig for it will do a goud thing for the people. It is charged that in former years when the measure was introduced in the Legislature that its progress in committee and in either bouse was hindered by what was called the school bonk trust lobhy, That may he true, hut knowing this now it will he the duty of friends of such movement to keep sharp watcb that such a book trust lobby is not allow ed to interfere in sur h a good work It is undoubtedly true that a school book lobby conducted operations at the Capitol during the session of 1891, and so impudent, bold and brazen was the work of its member that Speaker Thompson from the chair ordered that the seargeant al arms drive the lobbyist)) from the Amr of the House. This yeat, should they make their appearance to oppose the free text book bill, they should be disposed of very summari ly. The people want free text books, and any move in that direction is for the good of all. Let the State pay fT the books, and in doing so it only operates along the line of the most popular legislation that for the re lief of local taxation. Eveiy citizen who is compelled to boy books for his children in the puhlic schools is tax ed, and the lime is now here to relieve this taxation. We have heard of instances iu this Slate where children were kept from school be cause their parents could not afford to buy them school hooks. This is another argument for free text hooks There is a bill now before the House, which successfully ran the gauntlet of the Com in i tee on Educa tion, that provides that the school districts shall furnish and pay for free text hooks. If the hill to appropri ate 81,000,000 f r that pupse is not introduced in the Legislature, why not amend the bill already in the House, by tacking on the proviso that the State shall reimburse the school districts for all moneys ex pended in the purchase of free text books? That is an easy way to get around the matter, and we have no doubt the legislature would adopt it, thus heeding the demands of the people.
