In the States where the Federal arms
were longest kept the Republicans had
kept up the hateful, impracticable and
monstrous organization Of q party by

He declared that the "stalwart' repub-
licans and not the Democrats had insulted
the President by assuming to dictate to
him limo of action in accord with party
necessities, bu. against the dictates of his
judgment. He hinted that the President
had no right to criticise the manner in
which business was done In the House

RnilrOss4l Suit.

A lawsuit has been commenced ny the
Central Railroad of New jersey, joined
In with by the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road Company, against the Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad Company, the object being
to get uno obstructed use OF the Junction
railroad, n short link of road lying ~
West Philadelphia, and forming link
in the through liue of railway from and
beyond Baltimore to aud beyond New
York. This Junction Road, with one or
two other short links Of road, serves TO
connect the Philadelphia Wilmington
and baltimore Railroad and the Phila-
delphia and Reading Railroad with the
Pennsylvauia Railroad, and each with
the other, the last-named company
claiming to be the exclusive owner OF IT'S
section Of the road, as well az JOINT own
or with the other companies named In
tn. other links, and has heretofore. as
the owner, controlled the motive power,
a. is allo wable. All railroads, or nearly
all, are declared by their charters to be
puolic highways, but the same authority
gives to the company the control OF It's
| motive power. This is the gist, as far
~ we can learn, of the dispute which II
| IL now proposed to litigate IN the U. 3
Circuit Court at Pirtsbarg next week
The purpose of the Connecting and
Junction links of road, which was to fac

passengers, has been, and IL, in the
charge of the Pennsy lvania Railroad
which service that company, so far as Ii
known, has performed generally satis-
factorily. The trouble arises now from
An attempt to form an opposition through
line to the Pennsylvania Railroad be
tween this city and Jers"y City, the op
position TO include the Baltimore ant
Ohio Railroad, the Philadelphia vii
mington and Baltimore Railroad, and tho
North Penn, Bound Brook and Centra
of New jersey roads. To this proposi

TWELVE thousand dollars q year is
the amount the people Of Delaware pay
annually In interest on the State bonds
that could have been saved by the pas
sage of Mr.. Halls Refunding bill but
the leaders Of the party would not let it
be done because they cared IN ore for the
welfare OF the bond holders than they
did for that of the people. They believe
in plundering the public for the benefit
Of the party leaders There can be no
other adequate reason for their refusal to
pass Mr.. Halls bill.-Peninsuid Ne,rs.
The Neios knows very we'll that a
great part Of the influence that defeat
ed the measure before the legislature to
convert the State debt came from
rich Republicans who held the
State bonds. This We are sure was the
case in 1877 and we believe it was so also
at the last session. The measure, how
ever, we believe would have been passed
had the bill not been held back by the
committee in the Senate until within a
day or two of the time fixed for adjourn
ment. 1t is, however, manifestly unfair
to charge the defeat of the bill TO the
Democratic party, when it Is quiet certain
that the party is in favor of all measures
tending to reduce expenses and tighten
taxation.

SHOULD the pending controversy in re-
gard to the power claimed by the Repub-
licans to send troops to the election polls,
result in the disbanding or reduction of
the army, or the discharge OF SO much of
it as is not necessary to protect the from
tier, there could certainly be no loss to
the country. There are now entirely too
many officers loafng about the country,
living on the labor of the people, and if
they were discharged the country would
be the gamer thereby. There is nothing
to fear from the loss of their services.
Because there are thousands of young
officers who fought in the war against
rebellion, all over the country, who
would be glad to be assigned to such
positions. From these The Army could
be tiled to make up the requisite mum
Der needed while the best of the old
officers would be retained. This will all
doubtless be considered 10y the President
before signing or vetoing the Army bill.
The whole responsibility rests upon him.
If he determines that he will be master
of the legislation of the country as well
as the Executive officer, and refuses the
use OF such means as the national Con
gress allows him, of course the Army
Will have TO go or be reduced. One
thin. is certain that he has no right to
expect the Representatives of the people
will now allow him to invade the States
with an army on the day of an election,
and station troops at the polls. To yield
now is TO sanction this very thing and to
invite any Executive to send an army to
the polls.
Rumors of veto of the bill run through
the Washington correspondence of all the
New York papers to-day but none Of
them are positive as to the Presidents de-
termination, while the writers for the
same papers assert that Secretary Schur,
and Secretary Sherman are favorable tc
the President signing the bill. Some o.
'iSoc "iitcio 6o ~ lar db 10 assert thai
veto may cause a rupture in the cabi
net. The bill is in the interest of econo
my and to any economical measure the
Republicans have opposed united front
for the last four or five years, and henc.
it is altogether probable they have hat
sufficient influence to induce the Pres
dent to join them in opposing all sucl
measures as the Democrats mature.
If in veto the Pres dent should ad
nit or intimate that he would sign ;
separate bill forbldding the use of til,
army at the polls, since he is reported +,
be opposed to the use of troops at tn,
polls by the Herald, we presume th,
Democrats will at once pass bill in tha
shape, and after it is signed pass the ann,
bill amended.

SENATOR BAYARD's SPEEcH.-We
are indebted to Hon. THOMAS FRANCIS
BAYARD for pamphlet copies of his able
speech Oh the Army Appropriation Bill
in the Senate, on April 21, 1879. The
title page contains very pointed and
Appropriate quotation from the great
Wing expounder of the constitution
"Absurd, prepos'erous is 1t, scof and
satire on free forms OF constitutional lib
erty, for frames of government TO be pre-
scribed by military leaders, and the right
of suffrage to be exercised at the point OF
the sword. "-WEBsTER.
Webster's opinions,it appears, have very
little weight with the opponents of the
Democratic party of this day. The speech
of Senator Bayard is very long, and fills
% pages Of closely printed matter.

The Good Credit Of the Country at
Home and Abroad.

The great sensation in the financial
world is the rapid advance in the price
United States tourper cent bonds, which
sold Yesterday in London al l04 4, which
is about equivalent to 101s, the price
current here. 1t is barely one week since
Secretary Sherman offered $l50,OO0,O00
of these bonds for sale at 1904, with al
lowance of 1 per ceut. commission to
buyers, and ninety days interest to de-
pository banks subscribing, making the
cost virtually 90s. The fact that these
are the last bonds which the Government
can offer for sale until 1SSl--unless some
unexpected emergency should arise
gives to the purchasers all the advantages
of "a corner" in the bond market. For
there are persons who held six per cent.
and five per cent. bonds to a very largo
amount who are by law or otherwise
obliged to hold Government bonds in
some form, but have not yet provided
themselves with four per cents in the
place of the bonds recently called. They
will be compelled, of course, to pay what
ever price the present holders of the four
per csnts may demand.-N. Y. Tribune.
In the face of the above, which more
clearly proves the confidence of the people
in the Democratic party and the measures
they propose, the Tribune is attempting
to irighten tho masses and destroy conf
dence by the cry of revolution" The
intelligent men on the Republican side
have no faith in the Tribune and class its
language on the question OF the passage
of the Army bill with its "bloody shirt
stories that they know from the proof re.
ceived every day from travellers and OBJ.

lioious, intended only for political effect
