The scene at the Anderson walk is wildly. de-
scribed. Sustained on both Sides" says the
Figaro, "the woman drags along, with the
utmost difficulty, her bleeding feet. Her face
is pale as death, and the sweat pours from
her forehead. There Is no longer anything
human in her look. 1t is no longer a woman
It Is scarcely human being that we see It

For lack of anything else to agitate, the
Republicans have taken up the negro emil
grafton question and are working it for al II
is worth. The republican caucus, last Sat
urday, suggested that Senate committee
should visit Louisiana and Mississippi and
investigate the causes of the present negro
exodus from these States. The idea Is
ridiculous one. and the Republicans would
undoubtedly find themselves greatly disap-
pointed in the report of such committee, as
they would be utterly unable to dig up any OF

The attempted assassination Of the Gar
proves to be 9 most serious affair-far more
serious than the late attempts on the life Of
the sovereigns of Italy. and Spain. 1t Is not
the action OF q mailman like Passanante, but
plot, schemed and coneocted by en- associa-
ton Of .conspirators, and SO we'll arranged
that the Russian police have been unable to
track the conspirators after the assassin is
caught and known. The stories lately told
Vi the aims and movements Of the Russian
Nihilists have probably appeared exag-
gerated and sensational to many persons
The present attempt on theCzar's life SHOWS
the truth Of all these stories. Nihilism is no
longer spectre, but danger from which
Russia has more to tear than Turkey, than
even the plague. 1t is far worse than Social
ism and Communism, since It denies not
only property and religion, but marriage,
family ties-indeed, everything.

The telegraph told us, a few days ago, O

The telegraph told us, few days ago, OF
the attempt Of Judge Dillon, Of the United
States Circuit Court for Missouri, to arrest
and punish the county judges Of Scotland
county, Missouri, for contempt Of ehis court,
nm attempt which failed, as these judges de-
serted their homes and moved to Minnesota,
where they are safe from the processes OF
Judge billions court. The fight OF the people
OF Scotland and other Missouri counties
against the payment Of either principal or
interest OF their railroad bonds has lasted
now for several years. These bonds have
4 been declared constitutional by the United
States Supreme Court, and judgment rem
dered against these counties for their full
value Yet the Federal government finds it
self incapable Of collecting this judgment
This contest has more than once grown into
revolution. and several persons have already
lost their lives in 1t.
The fight began In Scotland county by the
destruction OF the county records by the
people, so as to prevent the Federal court
from assessing tax to pay these bonds. The
Federal court then ordered the county
judges-equivalent to our police juries-to as
sess the property of the county and levy the
proper IhA Iut JuuSSS l'oiE AOu. NY eoAAo
refused to acknowledge these designations
and ordered the judges to obey its order or be
punished for contempt The judges then left
the State for Minnesota.
The United States Collector attempted to
levy upon horses and other personal prop
erty OF the residents of the county. The peo-
pie refused to surrender their property,
threatened to resist with force, but finally
compromised and agreed to deliver up the
property seized into the hands of the United
States collectors on certain day at Mem
phs. the county seat. On that day q crowd
OF three thousand persons assembled at Menu
phis, three hundred of whom were an armed
anduniformed club known as theAnu-Ia xpay-
ers' Association. The horses were then put
up and knocked down to their owners at five
cents apiece, amid the deafening shouts of the
crowd. That night the town was Illuminated
In honor OF this triumph; every man. woman
and child sporting q white badge, the colors
OF the tax-resisters. The United States Court
thus finds itself in q queer predcament and
face to face with this strong popular feeling.
1t is difficult to see how the Federal govern
ment is going to enforce its orders.
