THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE administers inst

roundy abused the recent Chicago musical Jubilee
because the managers failed to tender them the usual
"courteses'-i e. free passes for themselves and

they should abandon the qirtd pro quo principle in
their treatment of public amusements they should
abandon 1t in tho treatment Of every other public mat
ter. THE TRIBUNE is right. The time has come when
should have done with dead-headIsm The Western
editors should have paid for their tickets, and If
they should have said so; II 1t was

public OF The fact But they shoud not have praised IT,

RAILROADS AND CANALS.

The New-Y Workers are evidently alarmed that

factures OF New England, and that any effort on her

Tax DECISION IN CALIroRSrA.-The
Sacramento Record, Of the Sth, publish
es in full The opinions OF the Supreme
Court in the San Francisco tax cases. 1t
will be seen, says the Record, that
Judges Crockett, Wallace. Belcher and
Rhodes delivered lengthy opinions,
Judge Niles alone dealing briefly with
the subject matter. In regard to the
questions at issue the Judges are partial
" divided, Chief Justice Wallace and
Judge Niles holding that the State Board
of Equalization is an unconstitutional
body, on the ground that it exercises
legislative authority, though not elected
by the people, while Judges Crockett,
Rhodes and Belcher affirm that it is not
unconstitutional. There is no practical
difference of opinion in regard to the
ultimate issue, all the Judges holding
that, though property should not be
taxed twice, the Savings Banks must
pay their taxes as assessed. Judge
Wallace declines to pronounce on the
question Of double taxation, holding that
ait is not for the Judicial Department Of
the Government to project or perfect
( system of finance 1t is held that the
meaning OF the constitutional declaration
"all property shall be taxed" is almos
too clear to admit of construction, an(
that if the result of taxing all propert.
be to produce double taxation, while tn
evil may be onerous and manifestly op
prsssive, the courts cannot interfere
unless it also appear that some provis
ion Of the Constitution has been violate,
in the enactment of the law" The ulti
mate outcome may be summed up as
decision that the State Constitution pre-
vides for double taxation, and unit
the Constitution can be altered
would seem that this conclusio
must remain. The effect of th
decision viii be to compel the pa.
ment of some four hundred thousan
dollars taxes. 1t will also possibly lea
to a change in the procedure relating
the mortgaging of property.

THEnKFERENCE

The London Times some time since thus
describes the force of public opinion in Eng
land, and it should .bo no less powerful
here:
"But what we look to is the public opin-
ion of country, the feeling of society, and
that W hich has the courage to assert and
defend itself. In this country public opin-
lol comes to supply the default law, and
TO pronounce a censure that will be ratified
only by the general assert of respectable
man. There is still here a very general
difference between what is strictly leg Il and
what is honorable and worthy of a coed
nan. No doubt a man in this country may
steer course very close to the law, aud es-
cape not only its penalties, but even its
brmas Judgments, but be will have to en-
counter another tribunal, that of his fell
low-citlzen, bound to no letter, and not
slow to say what it thinks culpsbe or mean; :,
How different this from the unthink-
ing manner in which the masses of
the Republican party in this Coun-
try upheld their leaders even in the
preparation of the most fragrant acts of
corruption. There is literally no RESPONSE
bility to the people on the part of members
of Congress and the State Legislatures.
Wien they go for measure to which they
know large majority of their constituents
are opposed they have no fear as TO the
consequences. Party discipline win settle
the matter with their political friends, and
the opposition are powerless. 1t would be
all the better for this country if we could
ergraft upon cur system this feature of
English politics.

DaNeER TO THE REPUsLIC.

In the deta'e on the adoption of the Fed
eral Constitution, Mr.. Madison warned us
of dangers, which, at this time, are fearful
ly pregnant. sSince the general civiliza-
ton of mankind" says Mr.. Madison, ~ be-
lieve there are more instances of the abridg-
ment of the freedom ofthe people, by grad
1aI and silent encroaehme1ts ofthcss liz
power, than by violent and sudden usur-
pations. On candid examination Of bis
tory, we shall find that turbulence, violence
and abuse Of power, ty the majority tramp
ling on the rights of the minority, have
produced factions and connections, which
in republics, have more frequently than any
other cause produced despotism. five go
over the whole history of ancient and mod
ern republics, we shall find their destruc-
ton to have generally resulted from these
causes. five consider the peculiar situa-
ton of the United States, and what are the
sources of that diversity of sentiments,
which pervades Its inhabitants, we shall
find great danger to fear, that the same
causes may terminate here, in the same fatal
effects, which they produced in those repub-
lies. This danger ought to be wisely guard
ed against"

The New York Shipping List of the 10Th
inst. reports the arrival of 1O6 vessels from
foreign ports in the previous three days
steamers, ships, barks, brigs and schooners,
but mostly ships and barks, which are YES
sells OF the greatest carrying capacity. But
of these vessels, thiriy-six, or more than
one-third, came in ballast; aid it is remark
ed that, while this is true, outward-bound
vessels are loaded to their utmost capacity.
The New York World says: Nothing APP
proximating this state Ct affairs has occur
red since 1861, the first year of the late civ
il war, when we for time almost ceased
import, and exported cur surplus products
with the greatest seemingly anx-
ious TO sell at any price, and unwilling or
unable to buy Or t, pay our debts. The
result was then that we imported thirty-six
million dollars in gold, This large sum
was sent to us because foreign countries
were in need of our products, whether we
purchased or not their goods in return. II
we should be SO fortunate as to have crop
of four and half million bales of cotton,
the importation of gold in the coming crop
year could hardly be avoided"

GRANT AND THE "BACK SALARY
STEAL

Gen. Butler manipulated the "back sala-
~ steal' and the forward salary grab in the
interest of Grant, who Is said to have lob
bied to get the bill through himself. Butler
being the Administration candidate for
Governor of Massachusetts and backed by
the Federal power, returns the compliment
by standing by the Administration, which,
he claims, his Republican accusers are not
doing. He says that while they denounce
him and che salary grab they are condem-
ming the President. He states bis poist in
the following plain manner:
"This groundless and senseless howl
frightened members of Congress OF both
parties, who behaved as foolishly as scared
men in panic usually do, each Republican
member or Senator seeming to forget thst
his act IN paying back his increased salary
to SaUe himself lCGS merely condemnation
Of the President and the administration
be Gains TO support"
Still we find journals pretending to sup
port Grant and yet denouncing the back
salary measure. These journals are noti-
fed by Butler, who has the ear of the Pres
ident more, perhaps, than any other man in
the country, that they are not sustaining
the Republican Administration.

Hon. JOSEPH TITCoMB is the Dsmo-
cratic nominee for Governor in Maine, snd
the Portland argus speaks of him as fol-
lows: "He is now in the prime of life,
gentleman of culture, a thorough, practical
business man, of pure life and unspotted
reputation, who commands the sincere re-
spect Of all who know him. He was gradu-
ated at Bowdoin College in 1913; in 1850
he was elected to the State Senate from
York, his native county, and in that posi-
ton won high praise as an able and faithful
public servant. About this time the care of
g large estate was devolved upoH him, and
he withdrew from politics to manage his
affairs, and Las since been largely and sue
cessfuly engaged in ship5uilding and navi-
gat;ou. In all bis relations he has been the
same high-toned, unostent ,tious citizen,
and consistent Democrat of the Jeffsrsonian
school" This is the class of men Demo
Gratis should nominate for all the Offices to
be voted for in town or country.

provided that every person holding office in
the Sta e v 10 shall be fond drunk shall,
upon conviction, be deemed guilty of high
misdemesnor, and shall, by the judgment Of
the Court and sentence, be removed from
Office. This is the first general law Of the
kind which we ever heard OF, though tipsy
judges have been impeached and tippling
militia officers court-martisled. 1t is never
the ess good law, and other States would
do well to follow the example of Mississip-
