It would be well If the Supreme Court could get at all the legislation of tho fifty-third Congress. The apology from Spain has not come to hand yet, bat American ships are no longer molested ln Cuban waters. The large cities of the country are learning one after another that the best kind of an advertisement is a Repub lican majority. It is evident that the Democrats who voted the Republican ticket at the Novem ber election are resolved to continue being better than their party. Senator Hill is now in favor of a South ern irian for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency. Dav97"liki"Arfemus "Ward's bfcar, Wm "au'ieoBln'llttle cuss." t)NE of the most urgent duties ot the Fifty-fourth Congress is the repeal of the emasculated income tax law. Even the Anarchists and Populists who were re sponsible for the act must be dUgUBted with it in its present shape. The' leading railroad in Connecticut has applied to the Legislature to prohibit the construction of electric roads between towns now connected by steam lines. A table is submitted showing that the suburban trafllc of the steam roads ln gome cases has been almost entirely lost. The points urged are that the legitimate business rights of the old roads are dis regarded, and that the electric roads are Infringing1 on the general highways be longing to the public. The questions raised ln Connecticut will soon demand attention in other states, and it is evt dent that throughout the country new problems in passenger transportation are coming forward for settlement. A dispatch from McKcesport, tells, ln a few words, of a trrfgedy" almost unique In the history of the race. A man who was being shaved at a barber's shop was telling a funny story when he snd denly expired. It is not too much to say that this sad event was in opposition to al precedent. It the barber, instead of the customer, had been narrating a side splitting story, after the manner of 'ton- sorial artists in places like McKeesport, bo one would hive been astonished at the death of the customer. It is the habit of provincial barbers to act as if they were always scraping an a:qualntance. It is probable that the unfortunate McKees port raconteur died of shock. He had strained his nervous system too far in at tempting to get a laugh out of a barber. Perhaps he was attempting to stave oil a demand for "a shampoo" or "a hair cut," but, whatever was his motive In telling that story, his late Is a warning. When your ohln is being shaved repress Its music, An impressive exhibit of the stupidity of sootallstlo legislation in general is found in the fact that the classes chiefly Intended to be hit by the lncoma tax are the very classes that escape it. The great real estate owners ln cities and the largo landed proprietors and bonanza farmers of the country dlstrlotB were the men principally aimed at by the Populists and thj featherhead element ot the Democracy who forced the income tax through Congress, but the Supreme Court's decision releases them from its operation. The tens ot millions ot dollars of the Astors' incomes from their hun dreds of millions ot dollars' worth of real estate which the Fetters, Blands, Aliens, Slhleys and the rest of the sans culottes ln Congress were particularly anxious to assail easily eludes and bafllas them. The part of the tax which stands is the part wbioh Is ordinarily moat Ulflloult to col lect. The income from notes, bonds, si oi ks and the other securities which the tax covers can dodge the collector to a considerable degree, and the larger this Income is the larger the proportion of it which can conceal itself.

TEEOOOUPATTON OF PORT AETHUR Japanese Control of That Stronghold Is Onl Tompornry, nnd the Nation Will Thereforo Have No Cnune for Interven tion on Thnt Score. Tientsin, April 18. Japan's occupation of Port Arthur Is tompornry, thus secur ing China's integrity on tho mainland of Asia nftor a term of years, and avoiding the possibility of Europoan Intervention. Tho latost reports concerning tho war indemnity to bo paid by China to Japan place tho amount nt 200,000,000 tacls of sil ver. Tho taol Is not a coin, but a weight, and consequently varies according to tho prlco of stiver. In Pokln at present ono tnul is. equal in valuo to ono andahnlf Mexican silver dollars, or Bovonty-flvo conts ln American cold. At this rato tho Indemnity of 200,000,000 taols is equal to flbo,000,0o0 in' American gold. Tho silver, ln large transactions In tho east, is put up ln tho form of bullion, or Ingots, each in got containing' .silver -to tho amount of from twenty to flfty taels. Tho Indem nity Is tobopoldlnflvoyparly instalments. LONDON, April 18.
