The Morrison bill remains a central reform test in Congress, with 135 Democrats and five Republicans backing it against 104 Republicans and 34 Democrats opposing.

In a thoughtful cross endorsement, a Hartford Times competitor backs Senator Thomas F. Bayard of Delaware for president.

Sweetened land grants lure emigrants to western rails

The passage condemns big land grants by western railroads inviting emigrants with half price trips and lodging while avoiding dining with executives. It predicts a day when landowners will lure New England settlers in palace cars with meals and music to Missouri, only to reveal farms paid at high costs won't yield profits like a country graveyard at low funeral rates.
