The Vice President and the Cabinet

The uninfuential position in the gov
eminent occupied by the Vice President
has of late been the subject of extensive
newspaper discussion. 1t has been sug-
gested that the Vice President be made
by law a member of the Presidents
Cabinet. Those who advocate this pro-
position, remarks the New York ECeHiHg
Post. forget that the Cabinet Is not and
never has been in our governmental sys-
TEN the creature of law. The law pro-
vides for a Secretary Of State, of War, or
the Treasury ard so on, but not for a
Cabinet as an executive council. The
President may call the heads of depart
ments together as a Cabinet council and
consult with them if he pleases, or he
may not call them together as a Cabinet
at all. No law cOmpels him TO do so.
He may also. if he pleases, call in any
person Of his choice TO take part in the
meetings and deliberations of the Cabi-
net, and no law stands in his way. If,
therefore, the President sees fit to invite
the Vice President to meet with the
Cabinet as one of its members, there is
absolutely nothing to prevent it. No
law is required for that purpose; but so
far no President seems to have been ia
vorably struck with the idea, and there is
scarcely any prospect that President Gar
field will form an exception to the rule.

The Northern papers use to have a
good deal to say about the habit Of
carrying concealed weapons, which they
declared to be prevalent at the South.
They find now that they have enough to
attend to in this line at home, and have
consequently ceased to indulge in abuse
of this section. There are, says the
New York star, twelve thousand men in
that city who habitually carry pistols
concealed about their persons. while the
Leader declares the number Of walking
arseuals in Cleveland. Ohio, to be five
thousand. This argues either great in
security to life in these cities, or great
disregard of the law. The evil has

Most Too Much Of the Railroad
nnOrna


An Atlanta dispatch to the New Or
leans Democrat SAYS: There is a very
important bill now pending before the
Legislature to charter the Atlanta and
Rome Railroad. This road is absolutely
necessary to complete the Cole SYSTEM
connecting Brunswick, Ga. with I'm
cinnati. and the friends of Cole openly
charge that Senator Joseph E. Brown
and other prominent Georgians are
lighting the bill in the interest OF the
louisville and Nashville Road,
which owns a controlling inter
est in the State Road, of which
Senator Brown is President. Cole is
under bond to construct the extension of
the Macon and Brunswick Road from
Macon to Atlanta, and it is now build
ing. but if be fails to get the charter re-
ferred to his system fails. Coles system
cuts the territory of the Louisville and
Nashville Road, and if completed would
prove a formidable rival to it in Georgia.
Public sentiment here favOrs the giving
Of the charter to Cole. who alleges that
some of the men are fighting him because
be refused to pay them to engineer the
bill through the Legislature.
We are not aware that Senator Brown
is opposed to the granting of a charter
to Colonel Coles proposed road from
Atlanta to Rome, but we are not sur
prised to learn that there is growing
opposition to the charter of road to
compete with our State Road. If a ne
cessitv exists for a road from Atlanta to
Rome, OF if any benefit would be likely
to accrue to the people of Georgia from
the construction of such a competing
road. then the charter should be
granted. But If the only inter
est TO be subserved is that of
4 foreign railroad combination, it will be
we'll for the Legislature to hesitate before
it grants such a charter 10 the detriment
Of the vested interests of the State and
people. We need not object to foreign
railroad competitors fighting out their
rivalries by means of lines of railroad
within our borders; but in granting the
charters they seek. the Legislature should
take care that we do not depreciate the
value nor hurtfully disturb the railroad
system of our State, that has cost so many
years of labor and so many millions of
money to build up.

BLOOD-CURDLING TRAGEDY.
a story That Seems Almost In
credible.

A horrible and blood-curdling tragedy
was enacted in Eagle Creek Valley, Wis
cousin, fourteen miles from Winona, on
last Sunday morning Paul Helde, a
Swiss immigrant, in tit of insanity
killed his wife and seven children, and
then blew out his own brains. From a
gentleman who was one of the first to
visit the scene l learn the following
Goa arriving at the farm house the first
thing that attracted our attention was
the mutilated body of little boy about
seven years old, who was lying on the
path with his head split open and a
bullet hole in his brains. Passing this,
we entered the kitchen and beheld on
the floor, surrounded by pool of
blood. the body of the father, shot
through the neck and head. Near him
Law Ratchet covered with blood, and
an old Swiss revolver. while on a chair
were powder and caps. Pushing into
the next room a sickening sight met our
gaze. Across the bed lay the mother
with her throat cut, and a hole in her
breast made by the Ratchet. By her
side Law a headless babe, while on the
other side was a little girl in the last
stages of death. In the alley two more
of the children were found, both mutila-
ted and shot through the head. The
barn was next visited, and in the haylo't
were found the two oldest children, boys
of Il aud IS, their bodies hacked IN
many places, aud both dying, being shot
through the brain. When discovered
all were dead except one girl and the
mother. The mother died in half an
hour after she was discovered. The child
was still alive at last accounts, al

Coroners jury returned verdict
that the wife and children came
to their death by the hands Of the hus

from Switzerland three months ago. He
purchased farm, and seemed to be
living happily Lately he became de-
spOndent at prospect Of a failure of the
crops, and, worried over the thought
that he paid too much for his land,
doubtless was led to commit the terrible
deed. 4 story was in circulation
that on Friday he visited Alta,
Wis, to receive $4,000 that he ex-
pected from the old country. The ex-
pectation of receiving this money was
known to all his neighbors, and there is
a suspicion OF foul play. The deed has
no parallel in this vicinity. and there is
great excitement.

can salt away a matter of fifty thousand
