OPEN LETTER TO the PRESIDENT.

Your Eacclimcy, The President Of The United
States, and de Chief Magistrate ofthe Nation;
Hon. Sin THE unpretentious and per-
sistent course you have pursued during
your administration TO preserve the ,nieg.
atty and purity OF our Republican institu.
,ions--to administer impartial justice TO
all citizens Of the Nation East, West, Nor II
aud South-those nj home aud those in
foreign lands aud on the high scns-lo reg
Mate our internal improvements and our
relations 10 foreign nations by laws VI
equity, and IN brief, 10 leave nothing M.
done that will promote the welfare uf the
people and secure the pnrpetuily and glory
of our country induces me TO send you
word Of congrntulation on the usefulness
and success of yonr pull ic career. Neither
would we leave ont Of consideration your
good wife, Her EAcellency, Mrs Hayes,
who presidcs as mistress over the White
House aud who has dune what no other
mi, tress ot that emporium of customs and
fashions ever thought or dared to do. As
she has done The glorious deed aud bunished
all Intoxicating liquors from the realm of
which she ia the chief magistrate, we feel
like expressing the wish that she might be-
come the Goddess OF the Nation and sway
her scepter across the seas. How TO make
all persons equal under the laws may be a
difficult problem TO solve. But we trust
every law that favors caste, or tyranny in
any way will be erased from the statute
book. Let the Negro, let the Chinaman,
let the Indian, and all other men whom
God has made in his own image and Tor
whom Christ died, and share alike in the
immunities OF great and free people.
His Excellency Rutherford Burchard
Hayes.
In behalf of the Nation, l am,
Very Truly Yours, SENEx.

Master Woodman, in his annual address
to the National Grange, very properly
terms the transportation question one OF
paramount importance. He quotes from
the Declaration OF Purposes to show that
the Grange is not the enemy OF capital or
transportation companies, bu t does oppose
the tyranny Of Monopolies and any such
management of corporate enterprises as
tends to oppress the people and rob them
OF their just profits. He also cites legal
authority to show that the efforts made to
induce Congress to regulate interstate
commerce, SO as to protect industrial inter
ests from extortion, were based upon well
grounded causes.

The first three States are Democratic, the
last three Republican. The first three with
n total vote of 4l5,700 have twenty-one
members of Congress, or one Representa-
tive for every $4,000 voters. The three
Republican States with total vote OF 609,-
SS7 have nine Representatives, or one Rep
resentative to 67,S60 voters Remove this
inequality and the Democratic party would
be in such hopeless minority in the House
that il could make no show whatever. 1t
is true that the three Republican States
mentioned are new States and have grown
enormously in the last ten years. But
suppose we take Ohio, one of the old States,
and make the comparison. Ohio cast 724, :
963 votes and has twenty Representatives,
or one Representative to every SO, 250 votes.
Georgia has nine Representatives, for 1861
G55, or one for every 1890. On an equal
footing Ohio should have forty-two to
Georgias nine. Again take the entire
Garfield States and compare their vote and
Representation with the vote and Repre-.
sentation OF the Hancock States, and the
inequality is monsirously unjust to the
Republican States. Happily the apror
tionment soon to he made will remedy the
evil to some extent, but unfortunately the
apportonment is to be made on the basis
OF population and not on the vote.

The Democratic papers generally are
well pleased that John Kelley's political
head has been severed close to his should
ers. The position lie has held for some
years past, that of Comptroller of the City
is said to be worth about S32 900 per year,
and besides it gave him almost unlimited
control over the politics of the city. But
he has been shorn of all this wealth and
power by the nomination of another man
by Mayor Cooper and a combination OF
Irving Hall Democrats, Republicans, and
a few Tammany Hall Democrats.

Coal miners in the Sunday Creek and
Hooking Valleys are again on strike, this
time for pay twice a month instead Of
monthly. We hear great deal about de-
veloped and undeveloped richness OF the
coal mines OF the State, and the prospects
OF cheap coal with the competing lines OF
railroads branching out from these mines,
but with the increased competition also
comes the increase in the price of coal
Is this the result Of the numerous strikes, a
combination of coal dealers, or the fault OF
the railroads?
