Not Assassination.

The New York Sun is made nervous
by the New York Express, which at
tempts to hold up the fate Of the Gar
Alexander as warning to q our new
made milliOnaires who '' use their
enormous wealth to increase their estates
and power to seize on the rights and
privileges and property of the people to
bribe legislatures for their own advan-
tage to the public injury, and to form
combinations with other capitalists to
control the country: and absorb what
ever is valuable in it," The people
everywhere murmur aloud and condemn
the spirit and acts Of these men, ,"saysthe
Ecpress. And SO they do, most as
suredly. But We do not understand the
Eepress rs urging the people to the
assassination of capitalists as the
proper way to redress the evils
they suffer from them. If that is
the idea of the Express of course it is
damnable and the Sun is right to ex-
press its adherence of it, as we do.

out was that the death of Alexander
shows that oppressors sometimes are
slain in defiance of law and that the
state becomes powerless in the face of
vehement public feeling among its pe0-
pie Of wrongs suffered at the hands of
its governors. The press of this couh.

very happy in extending the lesson to the
capitalists oi the United States whom it
accuses of oppressive use of their power !;

Jones found that it would be neces-

of subscribers for the major portion of the

Heath & Milligan of Chicago have
the following to say Of the difficulty
OF shipping goods on account of the
snow blockades of the past winter:
In the first place, the delays to
which the railroads were subject on
account of the recent snow blockades,
put us to great inconvenience in get
ting goods delivered to the depots
The railroads were in manycases obliged
to stop taking goods for shipment
FOR several days, and when they
resumed, the rush was so great that
for many days our teams were obliged
to stand ia long lines, often consum-
ing half day in delivering single
truck load Meantime the condition
OF the streets has been unprecedented
IN the history of the city since pave.
ments were introduced. The great
depth of snow in the streets was cut
into ruts, which in turn were convert
ed into hummocks of ice when thaw-
ing set in. Corduroy roads were NO
comparison to the streets at that time
and a large proportion Of the trucking
capacity of the city was quickly laid
up to repair damages to both trucks
and teams. Add to this the rush of
orders incident to the season, and oul
customers can form some idea of the
very Inconvenience with which we
have struggled in shipping goods.
We are happy to state, however,
that with the advent of few days o.
spring weather these difficulties have
disappeared, and we are in shape once
more to attend to your wants prompt.
