OF engine drivers on the st. Louis, Kan
sas City 6 Northern Railway, took place
at Sk Charles, Kansas City, and one OF
two others points on that road Saturday
night and several freight trains stopped,
and few passenger trains delayed. The
demonstration grew out of demand on
the part Of the members OF the Brother
hood Of Locomotive Engineers THAT Chas

hood, who had been given an engine

fused this demand, and on Saturday
evening as the freight trains arrived 81

was only quelled by Superintendent Van
Horn sending up, by a special train from
here, a file OF Metropolitan police who
preserved order. Police were also sta.
toned at tho Company's depots, and
around houses here and nothing serious
has occurred. Superintendent Van Horn
has discharged all the strikers and sent
engineers who do not belong to tho Broth.
erhood along the road to fill their places.
There will be no farther interruption to
travel, and in dsy or two the road will
be entirely cleared Of Brotherhood en-
gineers. Mr.. Wilson, the Grand Chief

The country is undoubtedly much agi.,
;a,cd lust now by the long continuance Of
strincency at the leading financial centers,
and aside from artificial influences, the
causes most generally assigned for this
stripgency 'are-first, the withdrawal OF
$4O,0OO,O0O, Legal.Tender Certificates, IN
about two years past; secondly, tho ex-
port of gold, which has reduced the bank
reserves in the specie line; and, thirdly,
the fact that part of the deposits which
formerly came to Eastern cities Is now
placed in the cities Of the Interior, where
interest is paid on them.

The Conservative speakers aud papers pa
thetically exclaim "poor South Carolina p
and utter fierce warnings to keep Virginia
from the devastating tread of Grad icalism."
What are the facts? South Cardinals State
debt was in 1870, S7,665, 900. Some frau
dulent bonds were issued, which the State
will promptly repudiate or disown. Virginla's
State debt was 45.718,000 on 1st October,
1872. South Carolina had no clause in her
Constitution forbidding the increase of her
debt. Virginia's was placed there by the Re-
publicans, and therefore the Legislature
could not increase the capital of the debt
They have done SO. aTever, by not paying
up promptly the interest. While the Con-
stitution of Virginia forbids the increase of
the State debt, there is no penalty attached
to squandering the assets. What has the Con-
servative party done with them Squandsder
$25, 100000 to railroad corporations in re-
turn for free passes to the members Of that
body. Taking the capacities of the two
States of South Carolina and Virginia, aud
which presents the most deplorable condition?
South Cardinals debt is six times less than
Virginia's. Would it not be well enough
for the Conservative voters to save their tears
for "poor Virginia" and let South Carolina
take care of herself?
