The Boston Traveller does not
take kindly to Hayes Southern
policy, but believing that he viii
retrace his steps the moment he
discovers his experiment to be an
orror," 1t hopes for the best This
belief expresses the most outra-
ceous Of the Capitalization doc
trines of the Republican party. 1t
proceeds upon the assumption, evil
IDENTIFY, that Hayes can SGT up or
overturn State governments in the
South at his pleasure. Otherwise
what is meant by his retraciug his
steps. In South Carolina the step
he is taking is that Of withdrawing
from active military Intervention in
behalf Of a claimant for the Guber-
material chair of the State. II this
action is speedily followed by the
peaceful assumption 81 authority
by Hampton, as there is no room
to doubt it will he, What steps can
Hayes retrace! Can he cverturn
the Hampton government if that
government does not snit him by
its administration Of affairs II
he can, il is absurd to talk Of State
governments elected by the peo-
pie, and Hayes might as well APP
point Governors Of States 1t once,
as he does those of Territories.
The fact of the matter is, however,
that Hayes cannot retrace his steps
if the result Of the withdrawal of
United States troops from Colum-
bia State House is 10 give tho peo-
pie of South Carolina control OF
their own State government. When
they have such control, 1t will be
an act of the grossest usurpation
An act which Hayes will not dare
attempt-to make barracks of the
Capitol of the State without a leg
islative or Executive request to
that effect. The settlement OF the
officially in South Carolina in
Hampton's favor-taat is in &C
cordance with the popalsr will
puts South Carolina on the same
footing with other States, and as
secure from further Federal usur-
patton.

A Washington special to the Chi
cago Tribune says that the salts
faction of the Southern Democrats
over the action of Hayes in res
pect to South Carclins is more than
offset by the indignation and dis
appointment of the Southern Re-
publicans and their Northern sym
psthizers. These have been saying
all manner of hard things Of Hayes
and his administration. They say
that thcy have never believed until
within day or two that it was
part of Hayes policy to desert his
only friends in the South and to
turn them over to the mercy Of
their Democratic adversaries.--
They predic. not only that the Re-
publican party as On organiza-
ton In the latter States viii disap.
pear, but that the effect of the al.
legged Ieachery will be 30 great
upon the Republican vote of the
North that Ohio will give q Demo.

next fall, and the other stanch Re.
publican States will follow its ex.

The enthusiastic Democrats who
predicted that there would be a
Democratic victory at the election
IN Rhode Island on Wednesday
we're not very far out Of the way.
The vote cast for the Democratic
candidate for Governor, Mr.. j. b.
Barnaby, was the largest which a
Democratic candidate ever received
q. any election ever held in the
State and the aggregate vote cast
st the election on Wednesday has
not been often exceeded In the
State. Wednesday was the first
time in many years that the De-
mocrscy really tried to carry Rhode
Island, and though unsuccessful
they made such splendid showing
that they will be encouraged to try
again with renewed vigor at the
next election when better success
may attend them.

F-esf rAe Detroit Free Press.
The absurdity Of the attempt to
harmonic the Louisiana commis-
sion plan with Hayes Southern
policy, as outlined in the inaugu-
raj address, has been clearly ap-
parent ever since the supporters OF
that individual found IL necessary
to make the attempt. The letter
of Hayes to the Secretary Of War
in regard TO the South Carolina
matter makes the aScirdity still
more clear, If possible, and lesves
the organs no possible standing
ground with their theory OF pol
icy which is the same for the en-
tire South. In this letter Hayes
condemns the commission plan for
Louisiana as absolutely and de-
cisiyely as If he had referred to it
in terms. In language rs concise
as the situation admits he shows
how utterly unjustifabie is the de-
lay which the commission plan
necessitates in the Louisiana case,
and furnishes unsDswerable argu-
ments for withdrawing the troops
from that State, as he has with
drawn them from South Carolina.
II there were any doubt as to
the significance Of this letter, it IL
removed entirely by the letter OF
instruction issued by the Secretary
Of State, in Hayes name, to the
Louisiana commission. Had the
commission gone with secret in
structions, rs was generally sntici-
pated, there would have been some
room for question in the matter.
II would have been open 10 the
friends Of Hayes to declare that
there was an essential difference
between the case Of Louisispa and
that Of South Carolina which ne
cessitated different course OF pro-
cedure in the two cases. It would
have been possible, at least, to ask
with some show Of reason for q
suspension of judgement until time
should disclose the precise crrSnd
of the commission. Unfortunately
for Hayes. however, the simulta-
Moons publication OF the commits
sion's Instructions and his letter to
the Secretary of War destroys this
possibility. Invited to compare
the two the public mnst be very
much wanting in discernment IL IL
does not see that the commission
plan Is either fraud or farce.

The Nichols Legislature in
Louisiana is making fair progress
in the direction Of getting a quo
rum which even Returning Board
Wells would be forced to &C.
knowledge was indispntable, and
which Packard would mcurnfully
acknowledge was complete in every
respect. The Wells Board declar-
ed seventy-one Republicans and
forty-six Democrats elected to the
House and three vacancies. AS
originally organized the Nichols
House consisted of forty members
with Returning Board certificates
of election, and twenty-five men,
bers whom the Returning Board
had attempted to cheat out Of seats.
At present there are fifty-three
members in the House with Re-
turning Board certificates, or with
in six Of majority Of the men
holding such certificates. Now
that il is understood that the most
Hayes will do for Packard is to
send . rowing commission to the
State, further accessions to the
Nichols House are probable.

Hayes instructions to the Louis
lana commissioners show that be
has been particularly struck with
the way Wheeler did the business
in 1875. He wants them to adjust
Che legislative difficulty, if posi-
bic, and let the Legislature adjust
the Gnbernatorial difficulty. This
ia in accordance with Stanley Mat
thews' views, and will avoid any
passing by Hayes upon the title OF
Packard, who, he is aware, received
more votes in Louisiana than some
Of the Hayes electors did. and is
therefore, in strict justice, MS much
entitled to the Office of Governor
of that State as Hayes is to the
Office he now holds.

the proceedings whereby the cleo
toral vote Of the State was given
To Hayes A similar Withdrawal
in Louisiana, with its necessary re-
cognition of Nichols, would call in
question directly the validity oil
the proceedings whereby Hayes
was awarded the vote Of that State.
Hayes knows this well, for aside
from the information furnished by
the election returns he has been
notified of it by Packard in terms
which show Enthusiastically that the
latter will not brook with patient
submission any questioning of his
title by Hayes. Hayes dare not,
therefore, decide for himself wheth-
or Nichols shall be recognized.
He dare not even submit that ques-
ton to the commission with an inn
piled promise to abide by it's de-
cision. On the contrary he hopes
to he able to avoid making any de-
cision 10 the case; and he trusts
to the commission TO frame some
scheme whereby Packard may be
gently eliminated from the Guber-
material problem without having il
In his power to charge Hayes with
any responsibility for bis downfall
The whole tenor of the instruc-
tions shows this. This commission
is to refrain very carefully from
making "any examination into OF
report upon the facts of the recent
election, or of the canvass of the
votes cast at that election Hayes
feels and knows that such an ex.
animation could only result in
strengthening the conviction that
Nichols carried the State. and
would probably exasperate Pack
ard into doing something vindic'
tive. For a like reason the com
mission il to keep its conclusions
secret until Hayes sees fit to pub'
lish them, or in other words, until
he decides that he can publish them
without prejudicing Packard. On
the whole, we are inclined to the
opinion that the commission plan
instead of being, as suggested,
either fraud or farce is both.

and the INSTALLATION Of Hampton as
the Chief Executive of the State,
The proposition submitted by Mr..
Chamberlain as 3 basis OF settle
mcnt seems to us exceedingly fair,
and the tribunal he proposed to
create would have been in its COM
position more satisfactory than the
commission which Is about to leave
for Louisiana. The rejection Of
the proposition is sscribed to legal
considerations. and with it seems
to have ended the last chance OF q
compromise. Hampton's unyield-
ing arrogance proved more potent
than Chamberlain's coprslsstory
suggestions, and the experiment re-
solved upon by the administration
will at once begin. Hampton would
make no bargain, but 10 has. put
on record promises the value OF
which remains to be tested. This
il not the solution of the South
Carolina problem which we have
desired.

ground that he has no right TO con-

A part of the service expected Of
the commission is TO interfere In

Farming Notes.


Plants feed mainly at the extremities oil
the rootlets, through mouths too small to be
seen by the naked eye. The finer the manure
is made, the more easily it is dissolved in
water, the sooner it passes into the circula-
ton. The cultivator who intends to secure
maximum crop, or even a tolerably paying
yield, will find it necessary to attend to his
fertilizers, whatever may be the kinds en-
ployed, and to reduce them to suitable de-
gree OF fineness before applying them TO his
Standardization Union.
The Arabs are famous for their fine horses.
Their statement of the essentials of horse
are four things large,the front or brow, the
breast, the rump and the limbs. Four things
long-the chest, the upper ribs, the belly and
the launches. Four things short, the pas.
terms, the ears and tail. Three things clean
or pure-the eye, the skin and the hoofs.
