THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, ELOOMSBUEG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. tc flfoimnbuiu. BLOOMSBURG, PA. Friday, February 9, 187 Hasty Legislation. Ono of tlto great and growing ovlla of tho tlino la tho hosty manner In which laws aro matlo.

Tho conscquonco Is thnt thpy nro criulo nntl Illy digested, In many instances unconstitutional, nnd frequently, In tho caso of local bills, aro passed without consulting tho pco. plo to bo affected by them. Bo common is this that tho Legislature has becomo mero machlno to advance tho Interests of few Influential citizens, or of powerful corporations. Members are nro Induced to voto for measures which thoy bcllovo to bo wrong, through fear that, If thoy do not, their own legislation will bo lmpcucu or no fcated. A9 a conscnucnco, all matters, however trifling, aro thrown Into tho legislative hopper and an immense amount of chaff, and cheat Is tho conso quencc.

Wo havosccn as many ns ono hundred bills (many of them of tho gravest Importance) passed In as many minutes, tho subject matter of which was known to only tho members who presented them, and In many Instances oven they did not know tho cousequenco of what they wcro doing. Tho record of last week's proceedings lu both Senato and llouso fully bears out this statement. Bank acts wcro pre scnted practically severing tho.connec tion between father and child husband and wifo and contrary to tho entire policy of tho law. During the debate ou this subject, our Member, Mr. Brock way said "I have noticed soveral bills with fua tures similar to this and although 1 think it is a foregone conclusion unit they will pass for there aro few Instan ces where corporations are refused what thoy nsk in this body yet I wish to point out briefly an objection that 1 havo to it, and to all bills of this class.

Section threo provides that "married women and minors shall bo competent to make such deposits with said their checUs.orders orreceipta fur tho tuino shall be a sufficient discharge of tho said corporation, This enables minors to deposit money subject to their own control, and there is no provision that tho parent may touch it. For that reason I think it Is in conflict with tho entire policy of our law. It changes all existing rules in relation to married women, aud enables them to make deposits whether thoy aro of their own earnings or not and keep them for their own separate uso. The capital stock of theso corporations is of such naturo that there is no protection whatever. By a recent examination of Fomo of theso savings banks in New York, it was found that they wero fraudulent: there was no, security whatover for tho depositor.

It is truo that some bills passed last year and years previously, containing this section. Tho fuct is, this is au inducement for man's wife to go through his pockets at night and make a deposit in the bank, and ho cannot reach it afterwards. I think it would make more business for tho Committee on Divorces if this was passed. Tho legal objections have not yet been met so far as I can see. The parent or husband now by law Is entitled to tho wages of his son or daughter, and ho should bo entitled to them, having reared them up to tho ago when they would bo useful to him.

But suppose tho bank refuses or declines to pay for any reason whatover, tho married woman cannot bring tho suit, nor can the minor in his own name. It seems to mo that is sufficient objection to tho bill." But theso Banks, not content with obtaining this privilege, havo asked to bo allowed to becomo executors, administrators, trustees, guardians, committees of lunatics, receivers, Ac, without giving bond or security, This section was also opposed by Mr. Brockway and on motion was stricken out. Another class of objectionable legislation Is granting charters of incorporation where the Courts have power. Dozens of such bills have been presented and will undoubtedly pass.

Under tho law tho Courts can grant charters to loan associations and firo Insurance-companies, yet a largo number of theso bills aro now on tho calendar and opposition to their passage seems to bo futile. Many hope and believe that tho coming constitutional convention will rem-wly all this. "Wo bcllovo not, becauso thosauia class of men who manago the Legislature will probably control the Conventlbn. Even if wholesome ro-forms aro Incorporated In tho Constitution, so long as Representatives aro elected in tho present manner, they will cvado or openly Ignore that instrument as they aro doing dally now. Tho only plan is tho adoption of a system which will enablo good men to represent us, without being compelled to go through forms In which a blackguard or a scoundrel stands tho best chance of Radical Reformers.

Tho opposition parly contains so many of theso gentlemen, that occasionally It Is instructive to watch their proceedings. Prominent among them in this Stoto Is Deacon White, a mem-ber of tho House from Allegheny. Ills speeches read well, but his votes do not correspond. Men who introduce unconstitutional bills and advocato tho exemption of railroad bonds from taxation are not such roformers as our pco plo demand. Tho same may bo said of Williams from Luzerno, a momber of tho W.

B. who has voted for every corporation measuro proposed tills winter. Grant was elected asu "reformer;" but tho fact is now patent that moro corrupt administration never disgraced "Washington. Not only tho Chief, but tho subordinates aro prostituting their positions for power and for money. Lust fall, the Republicans of Now York affected horror at tho Tammany frauds, shutting their eyes to U1030 that existed in their own ranks.

Tho leading Democrats of tho Stato set at work at onco to exposo them and punish the guilty nro doing so without fear or favor. They oven aided tho Republicans In carrying tho Legislature, In tho hopo that it would provo non-partisan but liko all Radical Legislatures, It 1b found to bo as corrupt as Its Speaking of it, tho New York Tribune says But if, Instead of this, wo havo werk and corruptible Legislature If It is composed in good part of men who have achieved nominations aud elections with intent to mako money tho session will not only provo failuro In Iteelf, but will swamp tho parly which tho peopio will Justly hold responsible for its miscarriage. What sort of a Legislature liavo wo really elected? It may bo too soon yet to Judge, but tho Indications nro unpromising. Thoy jusuiyn uoiii'i inuirt goon many mem bora Imaclno they wero chosen to make us much nolso as possible about Democratic frauds, but roar you ircntl.v as a sucking dovu when tho presumptive rascals aro Hcpuoucans. Wo would suggest to our oppoucuts, that hereafter beforo thoy mako charges against us, they should first seo that their own skirts nro clear.

LEGISLATURE. Nothing of interest was dono In tho Senato on Wednesday of last week, House. Tho prlvato calender was tho order of tho day. At half-past cloven tho Senate mot tho Houso and counted tho returns of tho lato election for auditor general, nnd surveyor goneral, and on tho con stitutional convention. Tho figures stood For Auditor Qenernl Stanton, 231 097, McCandless, 200,512 Spanglcr, 3,132.

With negative recommendation, an act to provldo offices for County Super Intcndcnts. With amendments, an act fixing tho salaries of County Superintendents.

With amendments, rt supplement to an net providing for tho duo training of common school teachers. Tho llowlng bills wero introduced Mr. Dill read nu net relative toexecu tors nnd administrators, extending the net of 1831 to lunatics and habitual drunkards. Also, an act for tho relief of certain Judgesoftho Courts of Common Fleas and District Courts. An net relating to legal advertising In tho several counties In this Common wealth, wa3 called up by Mr.

Petrlken, considered In Commlttco of tho Whole, nfter which Mr. White moved to post' pono indefinitely. Mr. Buckalow hoped tho bill would rccelvo proper treatment, as It had been presented in proper manner nt the Instance of tho printers of the Common wealth. Ho was in favor of tho bill, because it gavo tho minority tho benefit of public Information.

There ought to bo a uniform rulo governing official advertising; and this pUn of giving It to tho paper of each pjrly having the highest circulation, seemed tho be9t that could bo adopted. Tho bill will prevent abusea that now exist, and tho only disadvantage wil bo to small news papers. Tho motion uas modified to postpono for tho prebont. Mr, Evans said this patronage was generally in tho hands of competent officers, and ho did not think tho bill would work to tho advantage of either tho newspapers or tho public. After further discussion tho bill waspostpon ed for the present.

Yeas 1G. nays 12. The first bill passed allows boroughs to lay out streets fifty feet wide. Tho act increasing tho number of Judges of tho Supreme Court to seven, was discussed nnd postponed. Tho bill allowing tho Governor to ap point threo members on tho Board of Trustees for each Normal School, was amended to two, and to apply only to thoso districts which accept its provis ions.

Nothing of importance took placo in tho Sonato on Monday. In tho Houso a potitbn from Luzerno county for prohibitory Hquorlaw was presented. Mr. Whlto offered tho following ltesolml, That tho committee on vico and immorality bo discharged from tho consideration of bill, entitled an act to prohibit tho granting of any llcenfo to sell Intoxicating liquors in any city, borough or township, unless a majority of tho voters In said city, borough or township shall voto In favor or said llcenso, and that said bill bo placed on tho public calender for noxt Thursday. Ho stated that this bill had been in commlttco now over ten days.

Tho resolution was lost yeas 27, nays 47. A resolution to print 6000 additional copies of Bates History was referred to tho ways nnd means commltteo. In tho Sonato on Tuesday Mr. Bucka-lew read in placo and presented to tho chnlr, bill Intltlcd nn net to Incorporate tho Sullivan nnthrnclto coal company. A supplement to uu net for tho better nnd moro Impartial selection of persons to servo nsjuroH wan passed.

A bill was Introduced establishing a natlouitl shipping registry. In tho House, tho bill Justifying Secretary Boutwell in his negotiations with tho Syndlcato was debated. Tho United States Senato on Thursday of last week debated tho resolution calling for a reconslderntion of tho voto on tho Chicago Relief bill until the end of tho morning hour, and tho Amnesty bill from that tlmo until tho adjournment. Tho llouso of Representatives, by a strict party vote, passed the resolution whitewashing Secretary Boutwell's Illegal syndlcato bargain, aud disposed of thirty pagoj of tho Indian Appropriation bill. Tho United Slates Senate was not In session Friday.

In tho House, tho Indian Appropriation bill was passed. A bill appropriating pay for tho destruction of William and Mary VI r-glna, was reported nnd referred to the Committee of tho Wholo ou tho private calender. Various patent bills wero passed. The Educational Fund bill was considered, but not disposed of. In tho Senato on Monday tho Amnesty bill was taken up, nnd motion made to lay tho pending bill on tho tabiu nnd take up tho bill passed by tho House, which was lost.

Mr. Carpenter then offered substitute to Mr. Summer's amendment, which elicited a sharp debato between tho two gentlemen. In tho House, after tho introduction of new bills, tho amnesty question came up In tho shapo of a bill removing political disabilities from many who wero small officials in towns, villages, mid counties at tho beginning of tho war, which after a llttlo debato was passed.
