THE prospect of a reduction, in letter postage to one cent per ounce is not at all llattering at tho present time. The postmaster general estimates that the change^would cause a deficiency of nearly $23,000,000, which in itself is a sufficient argument aRainst it.

of immigrants landed in

New York last week was 16,240, the largest installment of any one week this year. If they are all g-od people the countries from which they come cannot afford to lose them, and if they areof the material from which bad citizens are made this, country doesn't want them. It Is no wonder that an attempt is now being made to draw the line against the reckless importations which are being carried on under the guise of Immigration by steamship companies. It's worse

of eastern people are mak­

ing an earnest eflort to.arouse the people of the country to the necessity of better roads, and there is a prospect of securing a suitable building at the World's Fair in which can bo grouped all the thing* which would be useful in educating the people how to build good roads. It Is suggested that the several States send cross sections of roads, showing the construction bast adapted to particnlar localities. It is understood that if the movement is successful Terre Haute will send a fow cross sections of her streets, which at the present time might compare almost favorably with the worst country roads in America. As an exhibition of needed improvement a few cross sections of Terre Haute streets would be a success.

The official vote of Louisiana has been announced, and is as follows: Foster, anti-lotteiy Damocrat, 79,501 McEuery, Democrat, 46,678- Leonard, regular Republican, 30,109 Breaux, custom-house, Republican, 11,112 Tannebill, People's party, 7,570. The Legislature stands: Foster Democrats, 62 including several Farmers'Alliance men McEoery Democrat, 57 Republicans, 10: Farmers' Alliance and People's party, 7. Tho total vote was 75,036, of which the successful candidate had a plurality of 32,883, and against the field had a minority of 15,914. In 1888 the state cast 188,728 vtjs for governor, of which the democratic candidate received 137,257, and the Republican 54,471, a Democratic majority of 85,786. The last legislature stool 119 Democrats and 17 Republicans, which shows aloss of seven Republicans, the number gained by the People's party. Cleveland carried the state by t4,548 in 18S8, and by 16,182 in 1884

THE anarchists have been causing trouble in France during the last month, having in several instances used dynamite wi^i telling eflect in Paris. This week two ot the perpetrators were tried, found guilty and sentenced to the galleys for life. During the trial every approach to the court had to be clearly guarded by strong detachments of police to guard against attempted rescue or violence. The judges of the court are in constant dangef, as is also every other person who takes any hand in the suppression this kind of lawlessness, and threatening letters make life a burden to them. Que man had his premises blown up, was neatly killed, as was also his son, aud the lives of his whole family threat ened. Others have been terrorized into fleeing the country, and anarchy is if) a fair way to once more take possession of the teautllul French captital. In most canes it is said the anarchists are foreigners, just as they are in this couutry. The Parisians should mete out to them liberal doses of Chicago justice, and repeat them whenever necessary. It is only summary measures and the certainty of the most severe punishment whiuh keeps these brutes in enforced good conduct. ^'2v'r':-,

A GOOD SHOWING.

During the month of March last this country exported merchandise valued at $31,919,075, against $75,314,326 during the same month last year,

and

$72,625,922

In March 1890. During the twelve months ending March 31,1892, the exports were $1,006,284,506, being the largest sum ever reached In the history of the country The fibres for the corresponding twelve months in 1891 were $72,008,286 for 1S90, $842,958,403 for 1889, $723,738,528 aud for IS88, $694,158,813. A comparison of the figures show a marvelous increase jear by year during.the last five years

The imports also show a large increase, being $$6,549,338 last month, an increase of $8,914,502 over the correspond! month last year, and $19,378,831 over March, 1890. The total value of imports for the twelve months ending March 31 1S92, was $837,058,585,

against

$835,660,334

during the preceeding twelve months and $767,334,870 daring the twelve months euding March 31, 1890. The large I net ease of imports last month la attributed principally to large purchases of sugar and coffee

Looked at in any light the showing is remarkable, aud Is gratifying to any

person

who takes an intent in the

prosperity of his eonntry, and the more gratifying because the Increase has uc curitkd in the face of the most confident predictions that the new tar 10 law would bring disaster. It Is a noteworthy fact that during the twelve months ending March SI, 1892, the merchpndise import ed free ot duty was 55.13 per cent, of the total, against 87.01 per cent, during the twelve months preceding. The British authorities say that their exports have decreased 5,6 per cent, during the calendar year of 1S91, and their business men wonder at the figure*. They dan't like to realise that as the manufactures of this country increase their exportamust continue to

TAMMANY.

There has probably never existed in this or any other eonntry a political organization which- has attracted so much attention or wielded so great an influence, generally for oyil, as Tammany. Originated in 1789 in New York as a counterweight to the so-called "aristocratic" Society of the Cincinnati, it soon-became essentially anti Federalist or Democratic ia its character. Its principal founder was an upholsterer named William Mooney, an American of Irish extraction, and it obtained its name from a noted ancient, wise and friendly chief of the Delaware tribe of Indians, named Tammany, who bad, for the want of a better subject, been canonized by the soldiers of the Revolution as the American patlron saint. The society is controlled by a Grand Sachem and thirteen Sachems, who are supposed to typify the president and governors of the thirteen orlgiual states.

Nominally Tammany is a Charitable and social organization, but it is only its political features of "which the country at large hears anything, although both branches are under the same leadership. Its income is enormous, and it pays its leader, Richard Croker, a salary of $15,000 per year. With the exception of the two terms of the mayoralty to Edson and Hewitt the Irish have filled the office for more than twenty years, and Tammany has controlled the patronage. To bo mayor of New York is a big thing, as that official controls more patronage than any man iu the United States, except the president, which accounts for the eagerness of Tammany to control it. The Germans are becdmiug restive under Tammany rule, but it will do them no good. Like the native-born Americans they are not in it.
