Interstate Commerce.

1t is now understood that so far as
railroads are concerned, competition
does not compete. They combine, and
the result is that freights are advanced.
Hence the necessity Of regulation by
the legislative authority, to prevent ex-
tortion and discrimination. Seeing the
impossibilitv Of single State atfording
protection against long lines Of trans
portati7n, Congress has taken the mat
ter in hand, and i laboring on what Is
known a. an interstate commerce sys-
ten. Senator Cameron, Of Pennsyl-
vania, has introduced a joint resolution
in the Senate for the appointment Of a
Commission to study the question, and
to report such legislation a. may seem
desirable upon the subject at the next
session Of Congress The resolution
provides that the Commission shall be
composed Of three Senators, three Re
representatives., and three private citizens
to be appointed by the President.

A SIGNIFICANT Reminder.

Among the flags displayed in New
Orleans during the Grant ovation, was
a full-sized American flag, at the Han
cock headquarters, with the following
inscription;
For President WINFIELD SCoTT HANCOCK.
The great principles of American liberty
are still the lawful inheritance of this peo-
pie, and ever should be. The right of trial
by jury, the habeas corpus, the liberty OF
the press, the freedom of speech, thenatural
rights of persons and the rights Of property,
must be preserved.
WINFIELD :. HANCOCK
Major Gen. Com dg Dept. La. and Texas.
The significance Of this flag i that
when Gen. Grant was installed a. Pres
ident one Of his first acts was To remove
Gen. Hancock from the command ofthe
Fifth Military District composed OF
Louisiana and Texas, for proclaiming
and acting upon these immortal truth,
il his official capacity. He was sue
ceeded by sheridan. the bloody-lninded
IIaynau, who on subsequent occasion
denounced the people Of Louisiana and
Mississippi as bandit" and asked au
thority to treat them a. outlaws.

of sham Democracy and the establishment
of true Republican principles
We will send you the tuli proceedings OF

The Federal Election Laws.

Washington reporters state that
various bills are before Congress essen
TALLY modifying the above laws The
chairman of the House Judiciary Com
mittee has reported favorably on BILL
that provides that only one deputy shall
be appointed for each voting precinct
It cuts down the pay Of both supervisors
and deputy marshals TO 81 30 day, and
limits the time of service Of the former
to six and Of the latter To three days
Another section by way Of amendment
Is added, providing thai warrants shall
not be served by these special deputies
until after election day. The country
does not expect the Democratic mem
beers Of Congress to sit down supinely
without making an effort to repeal, or
materially modify, these laws which
originated in a spirit Of sectional and
partizan bitterness.

The Supreme Court Decisions.


AIcrlulah Mercury.
The recent decision Of the Supreme Court
in the case against Judge Cole Of Virginia,
is in direct conflict with the rule OF con-
slrUction laid down by the same court in
lhe Grant Parish case In the latter case
it was held that the federal courts had no
jurisdiction under the XIV ard Nv amend
ments, unless the negro was denied or de
prived of 2 political right conferred on him
ty the constitution and laws of the United
states. The United States has no authority
to declare who shall vote at purely State
elections for county or State officers, and it
has not a particle more authority for in
dieting and punishng state officers for not
drawing negro jurors. The constitution
does not execute itself proprio ruigoJe and
no mn can be indicted aud punished save
for some act that is forbidden by positive
law. There is no federal law making it Il
penal otiense IN county officers to exclude
negroes from juries in State courts, and
even were there sucn a law it would be pal
pably unconstitutional. The decisions in
the Cole and the Grant Parish cases do not
tally at all. bat the court had 10 obcv the
Radical helm.

The Two Thirds Rule.

The National Executive Committee
If the Democratic Party, in their call
for the National Convention, have
directed attention TO the resolution
adopted by the National Convention in
1876. requesting the States to instruct
their delegates TO the National Conven-
ton to be held this year, whether II IS
desired to continue the two-thirds rule
longer In force in the National Conven-
ton. The resolution Of the Convention
Of 1876. j. in these words:

ture National Democratic Conventions, a.

NON nbled. that the sO-called two-thlrds

desirable to continue the two-thIrds rule
longer i'm force iu the National Convention,
and that the National Committee insert
such request in their call for the COnyen-
ti9n.
Here are two distinct propositions.
One, that the two-thirds rule Is ''unwise
and unnecessary" and should be abol-
i-hed. The other, that the States be
requested to instruct their delegates to

Grant Solves a Great Question

From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
As Gen. Grant was riding through the
streets of Houston, Texas, a heroic young
man drew near unto his carriage and shout
ed, ''furrah for Jeff Davis" Col. Tracy
who sat beside the great man, remarked
that in a city Of 25,OO0 inhabitants there
was likely to be one damned fool The Cen
eral coincided, and added "There are
fools all the world over" This shows
again the ADVANTAGE Of travel in the case of
Grant # he had not circumnavigated the
globe, and if he had not been all his life a
man Of close observation, he would not have
been able to assure Col Tracy that fools
could be found in every section Of the Lab-
liable globe.
