New York oppose Federal appointment
in that State which the Constitution
gives the President the right to make.
In the exercise of this right the Presi-
dent uses the power given him in the
Constitution and appoints the man OF
posed by the New York Senators. They
thereupon feel that as they speak the
sovereign will of New York State they
should be obeyed even by the President,
and lay down their commissions at the
feet of their sovereign State in order
that she may in her majesty and might
rebuke the Federal meddler who had
been so presumptious as to offend her
representatives. This is an extent to
which Mr.. Calhoun would never have
thought of carrying his States rights
theory. he only contended that the
powers not delegated to the general gov
ernment were reserved to the States, but
Messrs. Conkling and Platt are now
contending in a practical way for the
right of State to control the manner in
which the powers delegated to the gen.
eral government shall be exercised with.
in her limits. This is the extremist of
extreme States rights. We have merely
mentioned this to show how conveniently
things may be overlooked in. one man
which would be severely condemned in
another. It shows the hypocricy of
politics.

Atlanta's Prospects.

ATLANTA, May 2S.-The incorpora-
tors of the Atlanta and Alabama Rail-
way met to-day and elected Judge A. G.
Haskell, of South Carolina, president,
and opened the books for subscription to
the stock. All of the shares, amounting
To $3,000,000, were Immediately taken,
and the books were closed. The majority
of the shares were taken by the Rich
mond and Danville Railway Company.
This road will extend from Atlanta
directly to Birmingham, Ala, distance
of about l60 miles, and will be con-
Meeting road with the Air Line. Work
will be Immediately pushed forward,
laborers have been already engaged, and
by the fall of 1882 this city will be in full
communication with the coal fields of
Alabama.
Gen. Gordon's friends say that the
Georgia Western will also be built.
Work on this road is now being rapidly
pushed on the first section of twenty miles
from this city, but this section will be
used by Mr.. Cole, and form portion of
his road to Rome. Atlanta will certainly
have two new railway lines within the
next twelve or eighteen months, even
if the Georgia Western is never built.
The advance in the value of real es'
tate here during the past two years has
been extraordinary. Desirable buildings
lots could have been bought in 1878 and
1879 for one.third of what they have in
many cases recently been sold for.
Farms on the outskirts of the city two
and a half miles from the Central railway
station that in 1876 were bought at $40
per acre were sold in 1880 at s45, and
can be readily resold now at $50 per acre.
The city is being built up rapidly, and
now covers an area about twelve miles
in circumference, its outskirts being in
every direction about two miles from the
railway station. The amount of build
ing being done is astonishing In 1880
about 900 new houses were erected, and
it is expected that 1000 more will be
built in 1881.

The South Carolina Railroad has,
through the energy and business sagacity
of Receiver Fisher, been carried to the
water in Charleston, and henceforth
through freights will be received and
shipped from the Company's wharf with
out the charge for drayage heretofore
necessitated. This will prove very bene-
fetal to the people of the State, both in
the expedition of transport and in the
reduction Of charges.

The prospects of the Savannah Valley
Railroad have never been so bright as at
present, and we expect to see work begun
all along the line with large force in q
very short time. If the present indica-
tions prove correct the road will be built
and the trains running upon it from An
derson to Aiken in less than two years.
In order to do this, it will only be neces-
sary for the people along the line to raise
a sufficient amount of money to grade
the road. This, we think, has been done
up to the intersection with the Green
wood and Augusta Railroad, and from
Aiken to Edgefeld. 1t will, therefore,
be necessary to raise some twenty or
twenty-five thousand dollars in addition
to the amounts now subscribed in order
to assure the road. The unprovided por-
tion Of the road lies altogether in Edge
field County, and the friends of the en-
terprise hope to secure the greater por-
ton of the sum needed from the citizens
of that section. They are fully alive to
the enterprise, and will no doubt sub.
scribe very literally towards the road.
When completed it will put Anderson
some forty. or fifty miles nearer to
Charleston than it now is, and will de-
velop as rich country as can be found
ia South Carolina.

The Republicans of the New York
Legislature are badly divided on the
Conkling issue; so much so that both
factions claim to have amajority, though
it is by no means certain as to which will
poll the largest vote on joint ballot. The
contingency of deadlock is anxiously
dreaded, and then come in the fears
that Democrats will control the next
Legislature, and thereby gain both Sen
ators from the Empire State. The Re-
publicsns speak of guarding this point
by meeting again Immediately after the
election and before the incoming legisla-
tors take their seats. The benefit of this
move, it is claimed, would be in render
ing the members Independent of public
opinion and securing the party against a
Democratic gain in the Senate. It isnot
stated whether Conkling or the Admin
istration is to yield in this contingency.
There might be some trouble in adjust
ing that point.

ME CHILnREN,s HOME.

We are getting mixed on the Child
ren's Home salary business. On high
authority we stated last week, that, un-
der new act of the Legislature, which
transferred to the Trustees the power Of
appointing the superintendent, they
had met on Tuesday Of last week at AL
lance, and had confirmed the action of
the Commissioners Of Columbiana and
Stark in raising the salary Of Mr.. Buck
to ST. 500.
Our Commissioners inform US now
that they did not raise tie salary, and
that we were misinformed. We cheer
fully give these gentlemen the benefit Of
their statement; but when our statement
last week was made on equally high au.
thority, namely, the Trustees, we are
much mixed on this serious question.
We are not mixed on the raise to 81, 500.
or that there seems to be no doubt; and
it is certain the Commissioners of Co.
lumbiana county were unanimous all
the time for the $500 increase, while the
Stark county Commissioners were quite
willing to add $500.
We notice the Alliance Review Of last
week gave it as we did, namely, that the
Trustees merely confirmed the action Of
the Commissioners. We regret this en-
tanglement; but one thing we may say,
that Superintendent Buck is not tangled
up on it, at all. He is all right on it.,

CANTON BOARD OF IMPROVE
MENTS.

A good step has been made in organ.
izing a Board of improvements for Can
ton. The desire is to have every busi
ness man a member, and to take an in
terest in the improvement and progress
Of the town.
The following extract from the Consti-
tuition states the objects:
This association is formed for the pur-
pose Of fostering, protecting and devel
oping the commercial, manufacturing
and business interests Of the city Of Can
ton, collecting, disseminating and pre-
serving statistical and other information
concerning the same, and generally to
consider and act upon all questions con,
cerning the general welfare and pros~
perity of the city"
An association of this kind should be
productive of good. We have long be-
lieved that something Of the kind was
needed; and we trust this association
will judiciously consider and act upon
"all questions that concern the general
welfare and prosperity Of the city"
One point should early receive atten>
ton from the Association; and that is,
the importance Of patronizing home es>
adjustments, where we can do as well.
We hear of some of our manufacturing
establishments that get the most Of their
plain printing, for example, done away
from home, giving the home establish
ments no chance to bid on the same.
This is surely not commendable, and
not the way to promote "the general
welfare and prosperity Of the city"
The Stark Co. DEMOCRAT, for exam-
pie, has never hesitated to do its utmost to
extend the reputation of fCanton's indust-
ries;and why it is thatthousands of dollars
worth of printing should be sent every
year to Springfield, Cleveland and other
points, when the same can be done as
we'll here, and as cheap, we cannot
quite understand. Certainly this is not
the way to promote the general welfare
and prosperity of the town" 1t is rather
promoting the general welfare and
prosperity" of other towns.
We refer to this in no captious or whin>
ing mood, but as something worthy of
consideration. 1t is said some years a
hundred thousand dollars worth of
printing is sent away from Canton, that
could be done as well and as cheaply
here. . ......

keg of beer on the other They find it

pass such temperance bill as he want.
ed would ruin the party, and hence he
would not vote for such bill. The bill
pending don't suit the temperance peo.
pie as we'll as the present law. 1t was
the result of Republican caucus, and
is license affair. They are trying hard
to straddle the temperance and anti
temperance fences at the same time.

Dom Piatt has retired from the Wash
ington Capital. In his farewell address
he utters the following unpatriotic SEN
timents.
"It is my boast that l have done more
to fetch this Government into contempt
than all the subsidized pens and presses
over the land engaged in its support.
"This is saying much, but not more
than deserve. For these ten years, at
the very threshold of the ExecutiveMan-
sion, that shelters despotlsm more
dreary in its coarse aggressions than any
in Europe, and under the shadow of a
dome that covers den of thieves, have
punctured shams, exposed villains and
held imbecility up to ridicule, regardless
Of the threats, assaults and slanders Of
the sufferers.
"I do not assert that our Government
is the worst in the world That of Da>
honey is on a somewhat lower level. l
do say, without fear of successful contra
diction from the thoughtful and dispas>
sionate, it is the meanest.
The beautiful structure fabricated by
the fathers, lies like stranded whale
rotting in the sun, wolves and buzzards
fattening on one end, while sharks feed
in upon the other"

A few days ago Judge Moran. in the
Circuit Court at Chicago, denied the ap-
plication of a Chinaman for naturaliza.
ton. In this he followed the preceden-
set by Judge Sawyer, in the U. S. Gin
cult Court at San Francisco. This lat.
ter said, in like case, 81 am of opinion
that native of China, of the Mongol>
ian race, is not a white person within
the meaning Of the act of Congress.
Bah! Now, what would these judges do
in the case of mulatto born in the
West Indies? Would they decide that
yellow man is black2 1t appears that
Judge Moran and his California brother
are cutting this thing little too hne,-
Republican paper.
1t seems race equality will not work
in this country, though the great Re-
publican party so DEGREES and so COM
mands. The great party has not
banished polygamy, nor yet established
race equality entirely. The party has
conferred on the negro full political
power and equality.
Garfield will take the Chinese under
his wing. In Congress he was always
the friend of the Chinese; and in his in>
augural he dilates on the importance of
general education in this country, and
in this he does not except the heather
Chinee." Garfield has broad views in
some directions. His currency views
when in Congress were golden, and did
not include silver, for he opposed the
restoration Of the silver dollar, but the
then Democratic Congress put it through
over Hayes's veto Hayes and Garfield
have been the tools of the gold bugs and
National banks,
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1881-03-10

AN administration that began four
years ago in fraud went out in infamy
on Friday of last week. The day pre-.
vious the late fraud in the White House
vetoed the peoples per cent funding
bill, merely because the National Banks
demanded it of him, who has been their
willing and contemplate tool.
Let us look at this bill dispassion. q.
ately. Some six hundred millions of
United States bonds are about to mature.
The committee Of Ways and Means of
the late Congress had TO consider this,
and concluded to take action. They
knew that people were constantly in.
vesting in United States securities; and
such was the demand for these securi.
ties, that they had been rating in tie
market at premium, 80 that those buy.
ing them did not realize generally over
8 per cent on the investment, and many
got less than 8.
Considering these cirCumsta nces the
committee, through the late Fernando
Wood, reported a 8 per cent funding
or borrowing bill. When people were
willing to invest at 8 per CO 1T, why
should the government offer to pay
more? Why should not Congress for
once pass measure in the interest of
the taxpaying people. The Democrats
in Congress, true to duty and to econo-
my, gave it a cordial and earnest Cup
port; while the Republican members op-
posed this salutary measure. To this
there were eleven or twelve honorable
exceptions, and but for their support
the bill would probably have failed in
the House, for the Greenback members
generally opposed the bill, strange as it
may seem.
1t was measure in the best interests |
OF the people; in the interest of econo.
my. All classes of people, as a rule, ap-
proved the measure. The National |
Banks alone opposed, and they were in
terested parties. The false Hayes was
just the creature to serve them against
the people. Let this base tool go in dis
grace, consigned to eternal infany.
Among the reports Of the opinions Of
moneyed men in New York city in re.
gard to the veto, as reported in the pa
pers of the 4th, is the following:
II see no good reason why the bill
should lave been vetoed, !" said Fish, of
Fish d Hatch. "There was every prob.
ability of its success when put in opera.
ton, and little fear of its failure, except
in the minds of those who were anx
ious to see it fail. 1t will be either used
as lever to bring about an extra ses-
sion of Congress, or the Government
will be out of pocket So 600 00n in the
way of interest before the bill can be |
passed at the regular session. There are
$500, 900 900 per cents, and 5000 600 900 |
per cents outstanding, and the failure |
to refund will cost the Government the |
difference between 8, and 5, and 6 per
cents for all the time from which refun.
ding might have been begun"
This, then, is another piece of eyi-
denCe against fraudulent President,
and the leaders of the Republican party.
1t is their work, and shows again tina
the Republican party is in the hands of
the grasping, moneyed power, opposed to
equal justice and the interests of the
tsxpaying people. |g g
