make the connexon at PhiIadelpha with the
Baltimore train, and were obliged to lie over in
the city of brotherly love.
The passengers who left Philadelphia al
eight and quarter O'Clock on Monday morn
ing failed to make the regular connexlon with
the four o'clock train at Baltimore, but reached
there just in season to take the quarter 10 seven
train for Washngton-having been just ten and
one-quarter hours on the road.
The passengers who left Philadelphia at 2
O'Clock On Monday failed To make the Balt-
more o'clock conneXion, and passed the night
in Baltimore. SO with the passengers who
left New York at nine and six o'clock on Mon
day.
The passengers who left New York at half
past five o'clock on Monday evening, and those
who left Philadelphia at quarter past ten
o'clock the same evening, failed to make the
regular morning connection with the Balli
more train, and remained in the Monumental
city To Notwithstanding Washington at
eleven instead of seven O'Clock on Tuesday.
Now these things are occurring all the time:
we have low speed and high prices, and no Ger
tainly Of transit. For years and years the com
muniiy have endured these Inconvenience and
mposllons, ill they have become hopelessly
chronic. We do not suppose there is any-the
east-reason to believe that the directors and
owners OF these companies Will change their
lnveterate habits Of expressing the community
by eXtravagant prices, and imposing on them
by all the dirty tricks and conirvances that
Monopoly is SO apt to teach, and Avarce is
ready to learn. We believe that Congress is
the only power competent TO correct the evil;
and we believe that the power "to establish
post road,'' would be found liberal enough to
require no stretching to cover the very case be-
fore us. Any one who will read Mr. Justice
SToRY's chapter on this clause Of the Consutu
ton, in his invaluable Commentaries, will be
satisfied that the inclination of his opinion
would decidedly favor this conclusion.

"lMpupENr ATTEMPT AT DisoRG ANizATIoN.-
! The old line (ulira hunkey) Democratic Com
lnttcc of The I'd district OF Vermont called CON
vention at White River Junction to elect delegate
| to Baltimore. The district voted in 1913 Tayl
| 9.i5l, Van Buren, 5,547, Cass 1858 But in 1919
| the State Convention Of the two Democratic
tons made thorough union, and the united party.

organizers subsequently started a party Of their

| the district voted for Governor: Williams. Wing,
1906 Peck, regular Democrat, STA Roberts, old
me- o49-the old liners comprising only one tenth
ol the Democracy Of the district. Upon the call
OF the old line convention, the regulars, desiring
to avoid double delegation to Baltimore, conclud.
ed to take part with their disorganizing brethren,
and forego call Of their own. The regulars had
a majority in the convention and elected Stephen
Thomas, one OF their own number, as delegate.
But because the convention did not declare 'the
totaiity and lnaty of the Com promise measures
and bcrause il elected Judge Thomas, a regular
Democrat who did not bolt the union Of the party,
ma orty OF the 'old line district committee have
assumed to set aside as proceedings, and called
new convention at Bellows Falls, on the 9Th of
May, TO elect another delegate. This reckless at
tempt to interrupt the harmony of the Baltimore
Convention hardly fail to meet the emphatic
rebuke of that body
The Epening Post and the .Mississippian are
types of ''the two ends" of the party-as diff
terent in principles as in geographical position,
and yet agreeing to fight together, and to
test the action of the central body represented
by the Union. The .Mississippian, speaking for
lis Southern Rights friends, AYERS that the Bal
tlmoTe Convention will not endorse the Com
promise. The Post, chroncling the convictions
Of the Freesollers, echoes the avowal, and pre-
diets an emphatic rebuke" Of Compromise del
