Such things are separate from the

which the law does not and cannot in

CIVIL RIGHTS IN BILLIARD SA.
LOOMS


New Jersey has had her first Civil
Rights case, and this is the way the
United States Commissioner at Tren-
ton decided it.
The prosecutors say they were denied
the right to play 4 game of billiards in
the defendants billiard-room. This
biliard-rOom is called the Trenton
House Billiard Parlor." 1t is attached
to the hotel, under the same roof with
the rest Of the house. Sleeping apart
ments Of this hotel are over the billiard
room. The frstquestion Is. docs the
peculiar situation Of this bilIiard-salcon
make It one Of the accommodations,
advantages, facilities and privileges Of
the Trenton House," If kept by a
stranger, 1t certainly would not be con-
sidered one Of the advantages of that
hotel Because kept by the proprietor
of the hotel, its character Is not
changed; it is still a billiard-saloon,
regulated Just as any other billiard
saloon, OEly III the way of having it
near at hand. May this billiard room
be considered an accommodation or
advantage, facility or privilege,
IN the sense IN which the
Civil Rights bill uses these words?
They are there meant to be such as
a guest gets IN the price of his board;
such as smoking or reading in certain
appointed places; and one not intended
To cover those things paid for extra. If

AMBIGUOUS PHRASES.

Between rampant cOpper-bOttOmed
Democracy Of the reactiOnary State
sovereignty type, and National Repub-
hcanism, Ohio is q Republican State
by a great majority. But, between a
Liberal Democracy, cordially accepting
the results of the war, and going for
ward to new duties IN the interest of
the people at large, and third term,
high tariff, high-bOund, force bill Re.
publicanism, Ohio is Democratic. In
other words, there IS a large majority
Of sensible people in Ohio.-CiHciHHGtj
Commercial
Sad. to say, sensible people are some
times misled by catch-wOrds, and ere
dictionary" as applied to!Democracy is
becoming such in the mouths Of many.
In describing what 1t calls Liberal
Democracy" our contemporary shows
It's own desire for reaction, SO far as
''third term, high tariff, hide-bound,
force-bin Repubheanism'' IS concerned.
What was the whole political movement
Of last fall, but ''reactionary," revers-
ing as it did the complexion Of Con-
gress? So of accepting the results Of
the war" If this phrase means the
abandonment Of secession, the aboli-
ton of slavery and the vesting
of the negro with full citizen
ship, the Democracy have long
since accepted them. But there
have been other results Of the war
which we do not accept, such as Gov
eminent interference IN State elections
on behalf of party, Credit Mobilier cor
ruptions, extravaganza IN every depart
ment of government, the fostering Of
monopolies at the expense of the peo-
pie. or as the Commercial itself puts it,
''third term, high hariff, hide bound,
force-bill Republicanism." If leaders
and journals working for the same sub
stantial ends, would not misunderstood
each other, such ambiguous words and
phrases as reactionary" and accept
ing the results Of the war" should be
eschewed.

CROARING ABOUT THE WHEAT
CROP.
Nav York Bulletin,

Just now is the time to look out for
sensational reports about the failure
of the wheat crop" The wheat crop,
however, It is well to remember, always
begins TO fail ION paper at this season
Of the year, but somehow or other the
crop ultimately turns out all right.
Nature thus is kinder to us than
Madame RumOr. 1t is an old pro Ferb
that the peach crop usually begins to
"fail'' during March, long before the
buds are in blossom; but as the peach
crop, nevertheless, almost always turns
out an average, the proverb loses its
point.
We are led to these remarks by
statement we see in the San Francisco
journals, Of the 18th, that Geographic
dispatches had been received there
from New York inquiring about the
condition Of the wheat crop of Califor-
MIA, and representing that it was ru-
mOred there that twas a complete fan-
ure, naturally creating a great deal OF
excitement among dealers. There was
no ground whatsoever for the appre-
tensions. The fact is, the latest re-
ports from the interior are, on the
whole, favorable for a fair crop. With
moderate rains during the present
month and the beginning of April
there is every reason to expect the har-
vest of this year viii greatly exceed
that of any previous one.
AS Of California, so of some of the
great wheat-raising sections of the
Northwest. The cry Is already heard
that the severe cold of the past three
months is going to "kill off the winter
wheat" But the cry is without reason
thus far. There are no signs Of killing
anywhere. Besides it should be remem-
bered, It Is not always the coolest
weather that is most fatal to winter
wheat. Extreme variations IN tempera-
ture are worse than severe cold. Fall
crops are winter killed by alternate
freezing and thawing of the surface in
which the young plants have taken
root, which is equivalent to the removal
from their beds, and transplanting,
as often as a marked change takes
place. Most farmers agree that two or
three alternate thaws and freezes dur
ing the winter would ibe more surely
destructive to the crop of winter wheat
than constant cold, even if as extreme
as that of the past winter.

A FOG still envelopes the Louisiana
compromise, and, with Pinchback's op-
position. 1t cannot be enforced without
damaging "thc party in Louisiana to
some extent. Brother-in-law Casey
says the only way to GUST the ne
groes who were wr0ngfully seated is by
persuasion, that Is, they must be pro-
vided with Federal offices. This, he
confesses, viii raise a howl against
them for selling out, among their ne-
gro constituents. Although these
Kelloggites were seated by the bayonet'
1t is evident that Grant has no notion
of resorting to the same means for IN
seating them. Such an outrage on
"men and brethren would be apt to
ALLEVIATE the entire race, besides making
the biggest kind Of a Civil Rights case.

Mr.. c. T. CLARKE one Of the Oldest
of the Welsh iron-masters, has written
an interesting letter to the London
Economist IN regard to the lockout,
which still continues, without any pros
pect Of a surrender on either side. He
points out that the market for iron
which England formerly,.icommanded
has row been greatly, and, he fears,
permanently, curtailed by the efforts
Of other countries to provide for their
own wants IN this respect. He men,
tons that Russia, hitherto the most
considerable customer for English rail
way iron, intends issuing a new rail-
way loan in London, and TO force its
expenditure upon Russian produce by
leyying a duty of about e6 los, a ton
upon English iron. Thus, he says,
the English iron trade viii be left
without a single important foreign Gus
toner either in Europe or AmerlSa;
and the make Of iron must therefore
suffer reduction.

that is the stuff which your daily pa
pers can applaud, stuffng men with

eat the bread Of eternal life, not the

had nothing to say against legitimate
science, but only when there in an at
tempt to undermine the word OF God.

York to its centre. The dTunkard
shall yet know Christ nesting IL his
bosom to put out the fever fires Of sin.

than yield 70 a reduction Of wages pro-
