The management of the Asylum

Anti.HgOuoDoIy League.

. Il is an evidence of the great
and alarming growth of corpora
tlons in this country that citizens
are organizing against them. Small
corporations are being swallowed
up by big ones; competition is al
most dead, and it is coming to be
a fight between the corporations
and the people. Take the railroads,
for example: where ten years ago
there were several competing lines
of railways you find all under one
control and management; where a
few years ago there were three
great telegraph lines to day the
Western Union owns them all. The
influence that these large corpora
tions WELD in National and State
affairs IS immense. II they contin
ne to grow for the next ten years
as they have grown for ten past
they will become stronger than the
government,
The doctrine of the Anti-Monopo-
ly League is that the State that
creates the corporations must con-
troll them, and protect the rights OF
her citizens against unjust discrim'
nations and oppression; and that
there should be National and State
Railroad Commissioners to regulate
the railroads.

Frye, Hawley, aud Robinson repre-

offered BY Representative Haskell, Of
Kansas, that the Republicans refuse

Senator Logan's bill to make
General Grant Captain-General Of
the Army with a great big salary
and nothing to do, has not met with
much favor from the Democrats,
Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, be-
ing the only Democratic Senator
who favors it. Logan calls it up
on every possible occasion for a
vote, but other business pushes it
out of the way. The last occasion
was the 22nd of February. Ho
thought that day an appropriate
one. The Senate, he said, had just
appropriated $4,000 for monu-
ment to the father of his country,
and he thought it good time to do
something for the country's savior.

The South would like to have sim

sation of all sectional abuse. They
would like to have removal or modi-

protected against protection and,
above all, they want to be let alone

Mr. B3YeSs

Thursday, the 4th instant, Mr..
Hayes, the de fccto President, re
tires from the Office to which he
was never elected. Into his retire
ment, he carries, it is said, about
$780, 900, the savings Of his four
years in the White House, and he
also carries with him the contempt
of a large portion of the American
people Of all parties In the eyes
of one great party he has been a
cheat and a fraud; in the eyes Of
the other puppet. His retirement
will very likely be permanent; and
he viii be permitted to enjoy in
private the remainder OF his days
Thanks to Casana7e and Anderson,
Linn and Conover, Stanley Ma
theWs and Charley Foster-and to
the Electoral Commission-he is
not only secure against want, but
is blessed with a suficiency Of this
worlds goods to enable him to live
in comparative luxury.
AS President Hayes has been
many-sided. In removing the troops
from the South and thereby knock
ing the prop from under the radi-
cal and corrupt State administra-
tions he did an act of justice to
these States-and at the same time
relieved his own party of burden
that had well nigh sunk it beneath
the waves of the eountry's indigna-
tion. Had he not don : there
would have been no "solid South"
in 1880; there would have been no
sectional issue; and the Republican
party would have been swept from
the face of the continent. His &C.
tion may have been disinterested,
unselfsh and bipartisan; but when
ne remember how readily it was
acquiesced in even by the ''stal-
warts ;. that the removal Of the
Collector of Customs at New York
City created a greater uproar in his
party than his whole Southern
policy" we are forced to believe
that he acted from political mo-
tives, and as the potent represents
tive Of the Republican party he
aunloaded" a burden that that par
y could no longer carry with safe
~
His :scivil service" policy has
been a sham. Under no admins
tration have Office holders taken a
more active and influential part in
politics; and no President has made
so many appointments for political
reasons. Almost every man, from
the Casana7es and Kenners of the
Louisiana Returning Board, to
John Sherman, of Ohio, who aided
him in securing a seat to which he
was not elected, has received a fat
appointment.
Under his administration the
country has prospered. It has
prospered because it is recovering
from the losses and disa of
civil war, and because a benefcent
Providence has sent fruitful sea-
sons and plenteous harvests. The
prosperity of the country has been
Independent of politics and presi-
dental administrations.
