grew out OF the warfare OF the western na-

at that time. The western papers then con-
queTed their independence, and now, trans
act their business through their own organ
ization having business with the New. York
Associated, Press. The Western Union
Telegraph Company had treated them with
absolute fairness. The main object OF the
New York Associated Press was to prevent
reckless competition among It's own mem
bers. The newspaper business was a pri-
vate one. and the Government had no right
to meddIe With IL at all. Men connected
with the press had the same rights as any
other citizens, and no more; but they
claimed that when they. had built up a sys-.
tenn OF obtaibing4 news, employing agents
everywhere, they had right to the news as
property. = 4,fjI 1.!-i|trt>~s &1lF'A

The Public Debt and n chance for
k.yNr.N.

The visiting hoHdholders, who arc con-
ferrpr with The committee Of the General
Assembly, have made 4 proposition.
Orr readers viii! be surprised to learn That
there should be any opposition to this plan
OF settlement. But there is opposition, and
will be; and that opposition will come from
the very men who were very first 10 howl
for rtadiustment, while the men who have
yiycn the conference support, and the men
who will gain for the State the benefit OF its
provisions, belong largely to Il class who
have been styled funGerS, on account CT
their acquicsccnce in the inevitable results
Of legislative enactment and judicial deci.
sion.
But the crisis Is ct hand, and the people
viii see what manner OF men have control
Of the dcStinies q the State. BY their mag
unanimous proposition the bondholderS have
yndicated themselves before the world, and
the Siylock dodgc-the pet theme OF the
petty demagognes who have cried out for
reidiu>tment. which they do not want-haS
los, its charm. The whole subject OF re-
adjustment has been stripped OF its Difficult
ties and is placed in Il practicable shape be-
lore competent tribunal, and upon the
members OF the present General Assembly
rests the responsibility OF the whole matter.
We rejoice that the responsibility rests
where it does to-day, for the fear Of an
outraged constituency is 4 far better inccn-
tive 10 yirtuous actions among a certain
class Of politicians than the patriotic re-
lection OF duties well done. The man wbe
lDterposes at this supreme moment between
q badgered and desperate people and Iher
sure relief will be visited by political
dannation as deep and memorable as a trail
tors fate deserves. = ClinCh VaUey Nelcs.

been within our power or offered for our
acceptance. It would be worse than folly
10 refuse or delay. The agitation, veXa-
lion, and attempted reputation OF the
debt has kept the State poor and helpless,
and wellnigh destroyed her. The people
are weary OF political tricksters and their
transparent game OF bluff simply to serve
their own selfish ends. The people want
The debt question ont OF politics. And
The politician who does not heed their voice
Of warning will never have another chance
10 raise bis own in legislative halls. Meet
the difficulty and settle the debt; lift the
incubus and let Us breathe freely once more.
Wea1e tired Of wranglirg and waiting, OF
discussion and dispute. What the State
wait, is rest. II the Legislature would
Meet once in tive years and Congress once
