Tur strict quaratine of many southern
town, seems in some cases almost as much
Iccan>e of sclishness as dread Of yellow
fever and New Orleans not unnaturally
Complains. Mobile, for instance, cut oil
New orleans freights by mil, though allow
inc them by water, in order to appropriate
fine cotton business in Alabama to itself,
and Galveston is charged with fencing in
New Orleans, to play into the hands Of st.
Ionis In the smaller towns, also the
Local merchants have favored quarantine,
in order they might charge more for the
stock on hand, but in some instances their
penny.wisc policy has almost brought the
community to starvation prices and sup
niles. New Orleans treasures up these
Sights. and in one instance the payment
ola draft from Vicksburg was refused, on
the srund that, having severed business
communication, it has no right to draw
money from New Orleans with which to
trade at st. Louis.

THE SOUTHERN roLIcY.
Alter a defence Of thc convenience and

After defence OF the convenience and
economy Of the national bank system,
Secretary Sherman took up the southern
policy, saying: '''
"As to Louisiana, ! had better means Of
information than Judge Thurman, audi
say to you that the criminal conspiracy by
the Democratic party Of that State to con.
troll the election OF 1870, so as. to clst the
vote OF that State for Governor Tillen, has
never been fully told. Itextendcd 10 more
than ten parishes or counties, and held in
absolute terror five Republican parishes
that had always since the war given about
seven thousand Republican majority. II
led 10 and included in It's plans and scope
scores Of murders OF Republicans, white
and black, mainly intelligent black lead
ems OF their racc. Such were the means
used by the Democratic, party to carry
Louisiana. They may here and there in
ducc a disappointed oilice-secker like An
derson and Weber to falsify their former
oaths, and even prevail upon poor negroes
like Amy Mitchell and Mrs. Pinkstdn to
withdraw their former dispositions; but
the scores Of dead men killed by the rifle
clubs speak from tlieirgraves, and the men
who killed them and rode their nightly
rides OF terror know now in their hearts
that all that has been saitl of them is true,
The statements and aiIidavits made by
these people were submitted to the local
returning officers selected by the State
Legislature, composed Of two white men
and two colorS,l men, all natives OF the
South, and these men who knew the sur.
roundlngs and many Of the facts decided,
in strict compliance with the law Of that
State, that under this law these parishes
and polling places must DO. excluded, and
It was done. Thus Governor Hayes got
the vote Of Louisiana as lawfully as that of
Ohio. All this cry of fraud and usurpa.
ton ought, in the minds Of Just men, to

With the close Of this month, now al
most gone, the bankrupt law will cease to
exist. Next week, instead Of having one
uniform law for the government OF eases
oiinsolvency, we shall have thirty-eight,
each State in the Union having separate
law Of its own. The repeal of the superior
statute, without further legislation, opcr-
atcs to bring into force again the unrc-
pealcd bankruptcy laws of the several
States. The national law, which ceases to
operate after September !, should have
Iecn amended and shOrn OF its rcpulsive
features. and allowed TO stand. But re-
neal was better than the continuance OF
the law MS it is. 1t was one Of the greatest
stumbling blocks in the way of business,
and had very nearly deprived all forms OF
realty OF any adequate value us collateral
for the purpose of borrowing money. For
eighteen years anterior to the passage OF
the present law there was no general bank
rup, law, and many Of the State Lcgisla-
tures, anticipating the action Of Congress,
have revised the State laws and put them
in working orler. The New York lIOrld
sensbly observes that the power given
to Congress TO enact uniform law
grew out Of the confused insolv-
ent laws of the colonies, and that
bankruptcy procedures might serviceably
H. allowed 10 differ according asStates see
fl to enact concerning them If in their
operation the National Legislature would
secure uniformity, which cln be accom-
plishcd At the next session by a simple
section cnacting that an ins0lvcnt dis
charge granted to Il debtor in any one
State after due opportunity to his creditor
to appear and he heard shall operate in
every other State"
This might perhaps prove too simple 10
certain attorneys and some politicians; for
the expiring bankruptcy system was killed
by its own protested friends. As II orig
inally stood the law was not oppressive TO
the creditor nor too easy for the debtor;
but at every session Of Congress some in
tCrestcd and willy party would obtain
divers cnactments for special purpose or
to accomplish some private pecuniary adj
vantage. To use a figure familiar to the
lobby, good grindstone has been finally
worn out by multiplicity of axes.
The proceedings in bankruptcy in the
Federal Courts, after September |, willbe
only for the purpose of winding up the
business which is now pouring in in an
uninterrupted stream.

THE LABOR PROBLEM.

The Secretary closed his speech with the
following reference to the labor problem,
after speaking Of the decrease Of interest
on the public debt and the excess OF our
exports over imports as signs Of prosperity:
"And now, fellow citizens, in conclusion,
let me invite your attention briefly to the
agitation Of tic labor question, not onlyi in
this country, but In other countries. The
shmc distress in far greater degree exists
in Great Britain, France, Germany and all
civilized nations, whatever may he their
forms Of currency or standards OF value.
Modern inventions which SIMPLY wonder
full machinery which consumes only wa,
Ter and coal, as substitute for the skilled
mechanic, have greatly diminished the
o(curation OF labor. Fewer laborers are
required for the same work. The only
remedy would seem to be to pursue new
Industries and seek now markets to 10 sup
piled. Our own country Is blessed with
cheap lands inviting labor, and the energy
OF our own people, as | have shown, III
ready discovering increased employment
In supplying productions heretofore made
abroad, and In sending our homeopathic
lions to foreign countries. All that the
government can do within Its limited pow
ers II ought to do to encourage, protect
and foster labor" "1A

crime and violence that created the doubt

"The policyiof President Hayes llis

"But l, who supported this policy, and

THE TIMBER STEALERS
The secretary of war transmitted to
Secretary Schurz the copy of report
OF Lleut.-Col. Merriam, of the second
infantry, relative to the cutting of tim
Der on government lands near Cpur d.
Alene, Lake Idaho. This report states
that depredations on large scale are
being made by parties, who informed
Lieut.-Col. Merriam that they intended
to cut and drive 100000 feet oflogs.
and that they had no permit to
take them from the public lands. On
reporting the trespass to the United
States land agents at Lewiston, Idaho,
the officer was informed that no civil
authority in the territory was author
lied to protect public lands from this
wholesale pillage. In view of the fact
that wood and timber reservation
may be located so as to include the
deprecated section, the report saws it is
very important that immediate meas
ures be taken by some authority to stop
these operations.
