THE discussion Of transcontinental
railways to end at the rim Of the
Pacific ocean reminds one very
much of the hurry burly Of seven
years ago, when Tom Scott was do
ing q wonderful amount Of cheap
talk about the Texas Pacific and
Jay Cooke was using all his per-
suasive powers to make German
money lenders see the ad-
vantages held out to them
as an investment by the
Northern Pacific. The two great
salient facts OF the railway situa-
tion just now are that the South
srn Pacific has been pushed with
remarkable celerity towards New
Mexico, while the AtchIson, To-
pska and Santa Fe road Ia advanc-
ing briskly from the East towards
Arizona. In view Of past events it
need surprise no one to see these
roads, when they meet, patch up
precisely such an arrangement as
that which exists at present be-
tween the Union and Central Pa
clfic railways. Meanwhile, before
such an agreement would be ar
rived at, there would be a good
deal of skirmishing for position.
That more than one transcontinent-
al railway will be built below the
line of the Central and Union Pa
cific In the next ten years we do
not believe. There would neither
be money nor a possibility of
money in it for decades, and capit-
alists have at least an oblique re-
gard to the possibility of making
money when they engage in enter
prises of the kind. In the event OF
failure to agree on a common pol
10y the probability is extreme that
one road will sell out to the other.

The desperate straits to which
the Republican leaders in New
York are reduced could not be
shown better than by the fact that
they are seriously talking of
taking from the masses
the right of choosing Presi-
Dental electors in order to invest
the lately elected Republican Leg
islature with that function. Such
q practical Acknowledgement of the
voters Of the Empire State would act
like an alarm bell to the people of
the United States. 1t would be a
proclamation OF the fact that the
Republican party distrusted the
masses and were determined to
stick at nothing to retain power. 1t
would act as boomerang, knock
ing over the inscriptions men by
whom 1t had been hurled as q par
tixAn weapon. After such an act
Of ostsntatious political profiigacy
the most purblind would see that
the Republican party OF early days
had passed into the hands of a lot
Of desperate gamblers whose sole
object was partizan ascendancy at
all hazards. 1t would be fitting
supplement to the infamous Re-
turning Board achievement of 1876
~. 1t would give the Republican
party the thirty-five electoral votes
Of the State OF New York, but they
would be stolen votes-stolen in

originated where there was no foe;id atmos-

putrid, sinking canals, aud bound by

OF cue ot the finest mansions on the coast
surrounded by health giving orange
grove, and famed by the health>Eiving
broezcs of the gr'f on the south, and the
rosin odor5 OF the piuoy woods on TIE
north. 1t originated in the body of poor
Tom Creel, stalwart fisher boy, whose |
muscles were IRON and nerves steel; boy
who could so in the surf and haU' the
seine by day or night, in summer or ia
winter, and never be afflicted with chill.
It originated III him, and the body was
diszecied and the bowels were

A most deplorable consequence of this
system Is that the unfortr 1ate farmer, who
has been its victim for several years, in
many cases, loses his manhood, and settles
down without energy aid without hope, in
to the conviction that the system is n life
long struggle between him and the mer-
chant. He concludes that the merchant Is
to continue to get all he produces, and he
resolves without reference to tho prices
charged or the balance that may remain
against him on the merchants ledger, to
get oil he can on the mortgage before pay
day comes. The system therefore begots
extravagance, waste and demoralizat on;
and as the prospect of bottering the victims

direction diminish, Until they cease alto.

There can be no revival of our prosperity
until this system ends. How the business
OF the State may pass from this system to
another will be considered hereafter.
Another cause ia tho too prevalent de- re
on the part of our people to escape from
country life, its labors ard duties; and to
embark in the over~orowded pursuits Of the |
towns and villages. From being pro.
ducer of wealth, the farmer, removing to
TO town, becomes consumer.
Another, and the last cause Of dis ess
which shall mention is the too exclusive
reliance on negro labor. To point out all the
wis OF this reliance would require many
ages. cannot do this now. wish to
all attention to the fact, now patent to all,
hat the employment of this labor up to this
lme, has been In the main without profit
nd that its instability and unreliability as
hown by the present prevailing desire of
nat class of our population to remove to

bstacle to the industrial reconstruction of :

District Attorneys.

To the Editor of The Comet
1t is gratifying to see mat the office OF
District Attorney is being appreciated by
the people q" over the State. 1t is COR
tainly an office that should be filled by men
not only competent in ability and legal
learning, but also of matured intellect good
habits, and forco of character t, induce the
respect of the people eYd strike terror to
evil doers. In these days it is particularly
desirable that men who f'l that office ghould
be free from those vices which their official
duty would call upon them to denounce.
For, it word be o mockery for a District
Attol Iey to prosecute man for drunken
ness, gaming or fighting, when he is known
to be guilty of those vices himself. The
public interest demands that he should be
"a man above all exception"
In addition to what has heretofore been
said through the press, let it be added that
the Importance of the Office is increased in
these days by the fact that suits are COM
mon upon the bonds of tax collectors to
recover monies belonging to the State or |
county. The very best lawyers are gems
orally employed by the defense, and the |
District Attorney has to meet them, in many
single-handed and alone. Thou>
sands of do'ars are often at sta'Ie j. the |
District Attorney is not good lawyer I'd |
able to hold us own, tho State or county
must incur The expense to employ assistant
counsel, or run 'he great risk of losing the
debt.
An incompetent District Attorney invites
,rime. Evil doers are quick to see his
weakness and take advantage of il in many
Ways. In these times il ia very desirable to
lave men fully competent at tho start =
mentally, morally Fld professionally
discharge all the duties of the office. The
ubIic wish to feel that these officers are 1
bundcntly able 10 vindicate the laws and
ring offenders to justice, rld also to col~
'ct tho revenue by spit, however compn
ated the case may be.
