Following Is what the New York Her
aid thinks of US Before the enterpris-
ing Territories like New Mexico and Da-
kota are admitted into the membership
Of the Union it would be well to consider
the case of Nevada, which, some years
ago, because of real or supposed politi-
cal necessity, was elevated to the dignity
Of Statehood. Her population, although
she has been seventeen years a State, is
only So, 600. and instead Of fulfilling the
brilliant career predicted for her her
progress is SO slow that, as compared with
the other portions of the nation, she is be.
coming less and less entitled to the po-
sition she holds in the Union. The great
mistake made in her case was that we
admitted a mining camp and not a State.
Now the camp has broken up, and we
have q State with scarcely a single attri-
butte Of . State except its official machin-
cry in Congress. Surely the experiment
should not be repeated. Senators ought
to represent something besides 'butes'
on the plains. Dakota and New Mexico
may seem worthy of admission to the
Union to-day, but who can tell what they
viii be tomorrow! The growth Of q rot
ten borough State system should be
checked. To encourage ii BY a legisla-
tive dollhouse process is mischievous, if
not psrilous."

San Francisco, Feb. 21.-A bill in equity
was filed to-day in the United States Cir
cult Court by @. p. Huntington, to re-
strain the Central and Southern Pacific
Railroads, and their branches, from pay
ing tax collectors in the different counties
through which they pass the taxes levied,
on theb basis of the assessment fixed by the
State Board of Equalization. Fifty suits
ave been drawn, covering every mile CT
railroad owned by the two companies in
this State. The complaint alleges that the
tax and assessment are void on constitu-
tional grounds. First, because the bill
under which the assessment was made en-
braced more than one subject. Second,
because a clause of the Constitution divid-
ing legislative and judicial powers Of the
government is infringed by the act of the
Board of Equalization. Third, because
the Board did not assess the property al
its actual value. Fourth, that the Board
did not assess the improvements separately
as the law provides. Judge Sawyer grant
ed q restraining order, summoning the
defendants to show cause why an %injunc-
ton should not be granted, returnable
| next Monday.
SAN Francisco, February 21.-In the
Kalloch case this morning the time has
been devoted to the cross-examination Of
witnesses for the prosecution. Nothing new
has been ELECTED, except that Reed. one Of
the witnesses, to the shooting, testified that
he and Spear went to the Chronicle Office
that evening to obtain a copy of the pam
| phlet villifying the prisoners father, but
that Charles De Young informed them thai
he had none of them.
In the United States Circuit Court to
day, in the case of the Giant vs.. VULGAR
Powder Company. for alleged infringement
Of Noble patent, Judge Sawyer decided il
favor Of the defendant.

NEW York, Feb. 21.-The Worlds Let
ter says Although Mr.. Parnell has re
turned to London without being arrested
there can be no doubt that the Home ofRc,
has convincing proof Of his association
with reasonable Socialists. Davitt Ger
tainly succeeded in enticing him into q 20
sition where the law could step in and lay
its hands upon him at any moment. HI
will shortly return to Paris, but the SHARP
comments OF a New York paper, which
were cabled here on his proposed Ameri
can tour, deferred him from this latter en-.
terprise. The profound disbursement
caused by his disappearance obliged the
member for Cork City to show himself
again in Parliament at all hazards. Blu,
he knows his danger, for papers in possess
sion OF the Home Office would in law JUS,
tify his arrest at any moment. I may add
that l received these facts upon an author
ity which can be trusted implicitly.
Head-center Stephens, Of the Fenian
brotherhood, denies having held a consul.
tation with Mr.. Parnell, and condemns
his plan Of action. In my opinion, all
probability Of Fenian attacks, Of any con.
sequence at least. has passed away. The
leaders OF the Fenian organization now
know that any outbreak would recoil heav-
lily on their " friends, and members Of
the Irish party are more anxious than any
body to prevent any disturbance, as at the
first sign Of violence the Land Leaguers in
the House Of Commons, and out of it,
would be arrested.
Mr.. Parnells latest manifesto, recon.
mending an alliance with the English Rad.
icals, shows that at last he recognizes the
right and only practical policy for Irish
members to adopt. Unfortunately, he has
hitherto spurned all oyertures, and the
Radicals have no longer the power, or in
deed the inclination to join forces with
him. His obstruction tactics have dis.
credited Mr.. Parnell's leadership, and i'm
mensely injured the Irish cause through
out the nation. His interview at Paris
with Henrie Rochefort has also, as was to
be expected, given bitter offense to the
Catholic party, and his countrymen feel
that all is lost unless they can find q leader
Of better judgment.
NEW YoRK, Feb. 21.-The Tribune's
cablegram says: Victor Hugo's friends
admit, regretfully, the substantial truth
of the reports Of Parnell's interview. It
Is Victor Hugo's intention presently to
issue q manifesto favoring Home Rule.
His friends say it is no characteristic
OF Hugo 70 decide on political matters
from . purely sentimental view, and after
hearing one side he was never known to
study the Irish question, or to show M
interest in the tenants grievance till Mr..
Parnell appeared. Mr.. Parnell's conduct
in taking advantage Of the old mans polit-
Zeal dotage excites much indignation among
Victor Hugo's friends.
The Catholics are also dissatisfied and
indignant at Mr.. Parnell's seeking the alli-
ance Of Rochefort and other notorious
and Atheists. The leading
Catholic organs, which were heretofore
to be friendly to Mr.. Parnell,
now repudiate him.

Nor WISE NoR WE'LL.

Preparations are making for q grand
military display in Washington on Inaug-
urat;on Day. Several companies of
limited States soldiers, with five batteries,
will be present. Four companies OF ar
t;llery from New York have been ordered
to report there for the occasion, and sew
eral other companies from Fortress Mon
roe are also expected The National
Guard Of Pennsylvania, numbering TWEEN
ty thousand men, will be there, and eff
forts are making to secure the attendance
of large bodies of soldiers from other
States.
This is not wise nor well. 1t is a de-
parture from time-honored usages which
should be opposed and discouraged. The
Inauguration Of Mr.. Garfield, whom
everybody considers is entitled to the
Office and has been declared elected by
Congress in the Constitutional way,
needs no military backing whatever.
There is no possible danger of an out
break. Not a ripple of dissent will dis
turb the pacific proceedings Soldiers
are not needed there, and to invite their
presence pow simply payes the way to
their possible use on some subsequent oc-
c~asion, when their presence might over
awe Congress and i~naugurate a dictator.
1t is notorious that in the Winter of
1861 Grant filed Washington with Fed
eral troops and negotiated with Governor
Hartranft of Pennsylvania to call out the
militia of that State to inaugurate Hayes
by force, even had Congress failed to de-
clare him the P~resident-elect and the
House Of Representatives had chosen Mr..
Tilden in the manner provided by the
Constitution. Nothing should be done
to place the means of such an exercise of
power to overthrow the Government
within the reach Of those in authority.
The Inauguration Of President is a civil
occasion. The genius Of our institutions
makes it specially civil and unostenta-
tious. The true way was marked out by
Thomas Jefferson, who rode down to the
Capitol in plain clothes and hitched his
horse to a rail. The Republic is Peace.
It stands for industry, commerce, manu-
features, arts, intelligence, universal con-
tent and goodwill. No military pageant
should mar the simplicity of its great oc-
casions, even though the uniforms are
worn and the rifles are carried by citizens.
The unarmed and ununiformed citizen
should take precedence here.

THIS is the way a young English woman

TINS is the way a young English woman
has to do it: "a young person, who is
graciously permitted to refer to the but
Ter Of her late employer, respectfully re-
quests an opportunity to lay her testi-
monials before any Of the nobility or
gentry who may be in need of agoverness
in music and the languages" The Briton
il an ungracious and surly master when
need be. Cases tried in the courts reveal
curious manners of the a~ristocracy in
dealing with domestics. Decent footmen
have borne witness, for example. that
during years of service their masters
have v deigned to look at them d.
rectly; that in case of questioning the
head Of the house sat before a wall of
plate-glass, with his back to the mental,
putting question after question, to see,
probably, that the proper attitude of
obeisance and respect were maintained.

The in which jurors are now
examined and criminal cases are often
conducted, results in such a loss of time
that a strong inducement to commit per-
jury is held out to the business men who
are summoned to serve. When a man is
offered the alternative Of being shut up
in q court or jury room for days and even
weeks. while his business goes to pieces,
or Of swearing that he formed a positive
opinion, the strain ON his conscience is
apt to be quite severe.

Conkiing to the Hayes Administration
has been considerable Of 9 bore for the

not only to last until the administration

slaughter OF the hoDes and plsns, which cente-ed
on him, and regardless of The yet unassuaged

which fell so suddenly, the angel returned, and,
with a little warning, carried away the only re-

of a staff of strength upon whom they could
lean with pride in tue years to come, and upon
whom, almost unconsciously they had began to

what his bible taught him. Such faith, in
the threatening Presence of death, bore the
