WITH WORDS.

With words greet thee for my heart;
And though to some they seem as haught,
feel that they are much to one
Whose earnest friendship is not bought.
And when stretch nv arms to thee,
And when place my hand in thine,
Believe the utmost truth teel:
That naught can shake this love Of mine.
'Tis lifted DER the common things
or outward gliding, inward dust
A love that wearelh friendships guise
And crowns itself in perfect trust;
That looking out upon the world,
Past ali its fame, ambition, hate,
Beholds beyond the friend who waits
In silence at the outer gate:
A pOstern, grown about by weeds
The weeds OF Time, of woe and care
Some earthward bent by falling tears,
Some dead, or withered by despair.

THE conclusion of the case of j. B.
Conklin v. THE STAR should be another
warning to people against the possibili-
.ty of finding short road to fortune by
suing newspaper for libel. The ver-
dict for the defendant, after the very
able, clear and pointed charge of Judge
Tilden, says virtually that the jury was
convinced that every word The STAR
said about J. b. Conklin was true.
We did not publish the matter which
occasioned this suit without fully eXam-
lining all the facts connected with it. We
had not, nor have we now, any ill feeling
against this man ConklIn, but his acts
were, to some extent, public property, in
that he was offering his services to The
people in a capacity that gave him great
opportunity of abusing the power
placed in his hands. Convinced that he
was so abusing it no course was lett lis
but to give the facts to the public, and
knowing them to be true, twas our duty
to stand up in Court or out Of it and de-
fend them. We therefore resisted both
threats OF libel beforehand and offers Of
compromise afterwards, that Court and
jury might, if Mr.. Conklin desired; have a
full opportunity of passing upon the case.
We desire in our columns to do injustice
to no one, and if after exercising the
greatest possible care an item does 60 to
the public which does any one wrong,
nothing affords us so much pleasure as
TO make the amend. But we try by the
utmost care to make the necessity for
this occur very seldom, and none are
better aware than the readers of the
STAR how we'll we succeed. Much that is
sensational and would be greedily de-
voured by the public is excluded, be-
cause on the full examination which it
must pass we find that it is not true in
all respects, OF thatit is not essential to a
perfect history of the day .and
would be the cause Of suffering to inno-
cent parties. Exercising this great care
over our columns, and making it point
in all things to be truthful rather than
sensational, we can well afford, being
sure that we are right, to go ahead.
People have learned that when they
see a fact stated in The STAR one day
not to look for an apology or contra
diction on the next. And persons who
feel eg:.eved at anything they read can
always decide what course to pursue by
their own knowledge of the facts. If
any injustice has been done they may at
once know that they have been
. the subject OF a mistake or some
wrong information, and that it
will only be necessary to call at the Office
and explain to get full and ample corr
rection. On the other hand, if one knows
what is said OF him to be true. he will
save himself and us time and trouble by
not bothering about threats OF suits for
libel.

SOME FACTS IN QUE CIVILIZA-
TZON.

The American Peace Society has an
Eastern and a Western Office, at Boston,
Mass, and Elgin, Illinois. Amasa Lord
is the Western Secretary. We have le-
ceived from him large sheet of multun
in parvo on the subject of the war-point-
ed paragraphs and short articles, with
telling facts quite tempting to the edi-
torial mind. Mr.. Lord says that it costs
$500 every time the sheet is issued to the
whole press OF the United States, "most
of which i give from my limited means
Tor the sake OF doing good" We can as
sure brother Lord that the money he
siyes is conclusive evidence Of honesty
IN his professions and earnestness in ad-
roeating the cause, since there is no per-
,onal end to be attained by his sacrifice.
The Peace Society earnestly soliofts

not the case the State pays the cost Of

LAND md LABOR THE SOUTH


The Chicago Tribune thinks that sub
division of the large plantations of the
South is necessary to the establishment
of order and prosperity in that untortu-
nate portion of the divine heritage. No
doubt there are plenty OF plantations
ready for subdivision. The one thing
neediul is purchasers. No doubt land
owners North as well as South would be
extremely glad to sell at satisfactory
prices. The lands are in private hands,
and without purchasers they can not be
subdivided. At the South the negroes
must be the purchasers; but how can
they, with never so much industry and
economy, save money for land, when
half of them work tor the land owners,
and instead of money receive goods
which their employers sell them at, per-
haps, double prices.
At from 81 to $40 per month with ra-
tions of a peck of meal and four pounds
of bacon per week, and no money for
wages, the prospect OF selling land at
the South is rather slim. This is the
condition Of the labor in Florida, and in
perhaps half OF the whole gulf region.
This condition of the negroes in the
South is one of essential serfdom. The
witnesses before the Investigating Com
mittee generally said tnat the negroes
were dependent upon the land owners,
and many of them stopped voting or vo-
ted to please their employers. They
were compelled to do so or starve.
The statement of Conservative negro
in Shreveport, La, who had since his
emancipation accumulated $4,000 OF
property, is going through the press to
the effect that ''the colored people must
live in the South, where the climate suit
ed them, and it was best for them to
maintain friendly relations with the
whites, who own nearly all the land"
Hence, he had quit the Republican party,
and the more intelligent of his race were
doing likewise from the pressing neces-
sity for peace and bread and butter.
How much of liberty can be enjoyed
under such circumstances?
The Chicago Tribune thinks that sub
division has been "carried about far
enough in the North" Not exactly.
There are less farms in the North than
in the South, and single individuals hold
tens and even hundreds of thousands of
acres for the sole purpose Of making
money wrongfully out of the working
classes.
We should think that the calamities
which land monopoly has inflicted on
the country were enough to disgust any
candid person with this robbery Of mans
natural lila -. 4
