MILITARY mArrERs.

Oapt- EuWln fOllOcA's company 4,
ninth infantry, will soon take post at
Cheyenne depot, it being now en- route
from Ft. Robinson. Captain Pollock
himself has until short time past been
on duty as acting assistant inspecting
general of the district of New Mexico,
where he earned a most enviable repu-
tation as faithful and careful officer.
Before that ~time he had been on duty
in this department, and had rendered
good service In the construction of mil
itary posts.
Major Sniffen, the paymaster who
will soon take the place of Major Tow
ar, at Fort Russell, is a New Yorker
by birth, and was appointed from that
state on the 3rd of March 1877. He
was private secretary for President
Grant during the latter portion of his
incumbency.
Major Towar and his family leftFort
Russell yesterday afternoon for Fort
Omaha, Nebraska. He has acted as
paymaster at Forts Sanders and Russell
for two years past, and in that time
has made for himself hosts of friends.
1t is not too much to say that he is con-
sidered one Of the most efficient mem
bers of the pay department. There is
great deal of work to do at depart
ment headquarters and on that account
he was sent where he would be able to
do the most good.
Three non-commissioned officers and
twelve men of the third cavalry fromFt.
Sanders have reached Cheyenne depot.
to go out with the north Wyoming ex-
ploring expedition. They are a fine
looking soldiers and will do good serv-
ice.
Company G, 3rd cavalry, is now To-
Gated in the Middle Park of Colorado,
where a new camp has been established
named Camp Lawson, in honor of the
heroic Capt. James Lawson, of the
same regiment, who died at FortSteele
early this year from the results of ex-
posure during the Ute campaign.
With the arrival of the express at
Omaha over the Union Pacific from
the west Wednesday, came Capt. Car
penter, of the U. s. army, having three
prisoners from Salt Lake. Tho SOL
diers, who were shackled and bound,
were on their way to the military pris-
on at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.
Their offence was desertion.
The Butte Inter Mountain of the
Goth has the following personal: Gen.
p. E. Cennor, one of the most promi-
nent figures in the military history Of
the Pacific coast, ,harrived to-day from
Salt Lake. He is now cultivating the
arts of peace, being engaged in exten-
sive mining operations at Stockton,
Utah. Gen. Connor commanded the
California and Nevada volunteers dur
ing the late war, and won enduring
fame as an Indian fighter, having al
most annihilated the Bannacks and
Shoshones in 1864, besides which great
service to the country, he commanded
the campaign against the scarcely less
treacherous and turbulent Mormons,
preventing them from raising the rebel
flag and undoubtedly saving the lives
of hundreds of travellers who afterward
passed through on their way to Califor-
mia. 1t thus appears that Gen. Connor
has rendered important services to the
government, and the welcome which is
everywhere else extended to him will
not be withheld by the citizens Of
Butte.

London. June 2o.-The editor OF the
Morning Post publishes a communica-
tion over his own name, Sir Algernon
Borthwick, on the condition of Ireland.
He admits that the present legislative
union between Great Britain and Ire
land exists only in name. He says the
present land bill is an attempt at
compromise between the two social
systems, resting on purposes, and the
instincts are totally distinct, and it
must naturally result in disappoint-
ment, mutual recrimination and fail
ure. The land league is the embodi-
ment Of normal ideas and social pro-
clivities. Justice to Ireland means, in
effect, the withdrawal by Englend from
her intentions, and her hoped for re-
suits of the union of 1901, viz. the crea-
tion of homogeneous nation out of
utterly discordant elements. 1t is now
painfully apparent that home rule in
the so-called imperial parliament is a
standing protest against there being
common ground from which any
common legislation can proceed. When
will statesmen have influence enough
and authority with their constituents
to have facts and not wishes and asso-
Citations made the guide of nations
policy and the ground work of its legis-
lation? The Irish race is actuated by
racial propensities and customs totally
distinct from those of the English. No
union based on the common system of
law and industrial pursuits can possi-
bly, obtain between them except by
consistent force on the one side in the
absence of timorous concession to the
rule Of the stronger. One other qnes-
tion which we may make up our minds
which the nation has sooner or later to
face, is whether Ireland, as part of the
United Kingdom, is to be subjected
and made obedient to the same laws
and usages as ourselves, or, is she. by
exceptional legislation, in Difference to
her gain. and in her compatible pro.
clivities thereto, to be left outside OF
the obligations and responsibilities of
the union while u component part of it.
I will leave this idea for possible use
and expression in the VIVID imagina-
tion Of the home secretary, or as cud
to be chewed Of sweet and bitter fan
cies by the Irish one, in his not unfre.
quent passages to and from the sister
isle.

Tennessee the true inwardness Of the
~readiuster party Of Virginia. Thank
Godl we are all good democrats here,
whether wo are in favor of a high tax
or a lowta In 1879 Malone said Il
would use my best endeavors to secure
a vote of the people sanctionlng a set
Element at 3 per cent tor ~torty-five
years on a basis of $32,9H ,O9O02; and
vet now he advocates a settlement
at 3 per cent on a basis of only
$19. 900; for such is the provision
of the Riddleberger bill" Don'tyou
see there is no consistency about the
man. Why shouldn't he next pro-
pose to repudiate the whole debt I?
But this is not all. The Heidelberg
or bill, that pink of perfection to re-
adjusters, attacks the liberties of
the people in a most essential
point. 1t forces the people of
Virginia, paying the tax levied by the
bill to pay whether they think the tax
lawful or not, and deprlves
them of the usual legal remedies
to resist obnoxious and unlawful
taxes. 1t is only after they have paid
that they are allowed at all to seek
redress, and then it is by the costly
experiment of a suit to recover. How
is this for consistency how is this for
justice and fairness?
Now, Mr.. Editor, | am done, l
might write ON indefinitely but |
think of the demands you have for
every inch of your interesting paper.
| have gone down in the maze Of the
readjuster movement and have
endeavored to describe it's laby-
rinthine chambers. Let no low tax
man think that / am quarreling with
him regarding his views as to the rate
the Tennessee debt ought to be set
tied at. My object has been simply
to defend the grand old democratic
party that stands to day the proud
monument Of freedom on this CONT
nent, and in a similar spirit to respect
fully repel the imputations of corrup-
ton cast upon the majority of the white
people in Virginia. The debt of Virgin
ia was incurred before the war;the debt
of Tennessee, in a great measure, by
an irresponsible assemblage of enemies
ofthe state, after the war. | believe
it was an error to attach to the 1908
bill the provision making coupons re-
coivable in payment of taxes. But |
am opposed to further agitation of the
subject, as l believe the rate Of inter
est fair and equitable, and that any
further disturbance of the question
will only engender bitter feelings and
create discussions.
One word more. "T. D." referred
me in his article of the 18th to the
forum and "hustings'' fora discus
sion of the equities of the war interest.
He did not attempt, then, to deny the
force ofthe repeated acknowledgements
of that interest by legislative enact
ments. Now he refers me on this
point, to the views of Mr.. Jefferson
and Governor Kemper, and yet with
out quoting from them. Then he
plead that the LEDGER had not space
for a consideration of the equities Of.
war interest; yet now he consumes
halfa column more than he did before
in discussing questions comparatively
unimportant. The consideration Of
1T. DIS" for the LEDGER's space is
wonderful Has he shown it by his
articles? Good by, "T. D." l res
pectfully suggest that the next time
you write, you do not involve your
self in so many innocent contradic-
lions. l.. G. T.

SIGNS Or PROSPERITY.
Less Whisky Drinking and Mere
Beer CONSUMED.
Business Activity Discovered i'm
the South.
.pecial No The Cincinnati Commorcial.l

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial.l
WASHINGTON, April 25.-The treas
ury receipts to-day were nearly one
and a half million of dollars. The
internal revenue receipts show a con-
staut increase whisky, beer and to-
bacco all returning larger sums than
ever before. This is attributed to in
creased activity in all branches of in
dustry, and increased capacity upon
the part Of the people to purchase.
The per cent of increase in the reve-
nue. from beer is greater that on
whisky, which is regarded as a hope
full sign, the evil of beer drinking be-
ing very much less than that which
follows the consumption of whisky.
At the rate revenue is coming in, and
allowing for expenditures, it is proba-
Bile that the reduction Of the public
debt this month will be over
$10,0O0,0O0.
A party of Boston gentlemen, just
arrived from a tour in the southern
states, speaks very encouragingly OF
the outlook in that part of the coun-
try. They represent that all is peace,
with favorable crop indications. They
we're astonished at the progress made
in the manufacture of cotton and iron.
They heard less Of politics than usual,
which they regarded as a very hope
full sign. The sound of q cotton spin
die is more musical to the cultured
Bostonese than a disquisition on the
resolutions of rs. They represent
that Nashville is enjoying a business
boom, with more building han ever,
and real estate stiff. They spent some
time in Chattanooga and think that
will eventually be the great city Of the
south. They think it will go ahead Of
Atlanta and Nashville. The city is
republican in politics, has a sewer sys-
TEN, and not much debt.

most brilliant Of contempory English
essayists, has written a slashing article
in a current British quarterly in the
same vein. The London Academy OBJ
jects to many Of Carlyle's references
to private and public people, because
they violate the usages of society,
and that society has its reticences
and magnanimities, if not its sancti-
ties" The writer thinks also that
Mr.. Froude would have done well for
the reputation Of Carlyle if he had
omitted references to people who, so
far as can be seen, have done nothing
to deserve being thus piloried."
1t is, Of course, a shock to readers
Of this generation, who have bathed

from C~arlyle's estimate that her ador-

"a shining matron of some female es-

The trouble with our memoirs and

become the very worse form Of decep-

Arbitrary Tenchers.

Don't teachers of our schools some
times become a little too arbitrary?
We ask the question. in no captious
or fault-fnding spirit, but we ask it
in earnest, and hope it will arrest at
tention. We have a reason for doing
so. Recently-but a day or so ago
the superintendent of one of our city
schools addressed rather q cross, i'll
natured note to the mother of a fe-
male pupil, complaining of her abb
sence, and lnsinuating that she might
be suspended. Had he confded in
the veracity Of the pupil and accepted
her statements as she meant them,
there would have been no necessity for
writing the note to her mother. We
venture to assert that, out of the
one thousand children or more
attending our city schools, not one has
tried harder to be punctual than the
one in question. After toiling at
home in the morning, assisting her
mother in her domestic duties, she
has been known, when in delicate
health, to go throgh all sorts ofweath-
er-rain, snow and mud and outside Of
the corporation at that, in order to
reach her post of duty on time. Not
only that, but there is not a more du-
tiiul, obedient pupil attending our
schools. We believe in discipline
thorough discipline, but We don't be-
lieve in arbitrary assumptions of power
and of exercising of authority because
it can be done. If pupils are tardy,
as they are very often, it would be
more becoming if teachers and super
intendents would either seethe parents
of them in person, or address them
respectful notes.
