TIE RAILROAD NEWS.

The rainy weather still continues

feet deep and 100 feet wide to be

This dock will be located between

A NOTICEABLE CHANGE.

Among the more significant features of
the Inauguration ball at Washington the
other day, was the presence of colored
people in considerable numbers. They
were educated and well dressed, and of all
shades. They mingled freely with the
company, took their full share of the
dancing, and met with no rudeness or OBJ
iecsions. 1t must be admitted that this
indicates an advance which would have
been secuted as impossible a few years ago,
and which even now would perhaps have
been impossible anywhere else in the
country. Prejudices and habits of this
nature are not easily thrown of, and We
must be content if from time to time some
such notable sign of progress as here
recited is afforded.

SOCIALIST DEMONSTRATIONS.

The accounts of the Socialist demon
strations held in New York and Chicago
to applaud the assassination of the Car
are disgusting The idea that it is neces.
sary to tolerate such brutalities under the
plea of preserving the freedom of speech
is preposterous. The fact is that the
Socialists are quite as much enemies to
the Government of the United States as
they are to any of the Governments Of
Europe. The objects they propose are
incompatible with the maintenance of any
government whatever. They are as hos
tile to freedom as the most radical despot.
We have seen in California the evil effects
of proceeding too literally upon the doc

THE MAHoNE BARGAIN.

We cannot see in the change of base
made by Senator Malone any cause for
congratulation. 1t is freely alleged that
he has made his bargain with the Republi-
cans, and that this bargain includes the
surrender to him of the federal patronage
in Virginia. Now Senator Malone is the
leader, in his State, OF faction calling
themselves Readjusters, but who are in
fact Regulators. These people advocate
the swindling of the States creditors un-
fortunately too common Southern pol
icy. If therefore the Administration of
President Garfield gives the federal patron
age of Virginia to Senator Malone, it fol-
lows that the Administration is giving its
aid to support the doctrine of reputation.
Thus we have two very serious faults. In
the first place it must be admitted that
President Garfield would have lost very
little time in forgetting the promise of his
inaugural address If he should hand over
the patronage of State to one of its
Senators in order to further a purely
partisan arrangement. In the second
place President Garfield would render
himself liable to the accusation, by doing
this, that he had separated himself
altogether from the financial record and
principles of Congressman Garfield. The
latter was known as stanch advocate of
honest finance. he was the uncompromis-
ing foe of reputation in all its Protean
forms. Can it then be believed that he
has consented to bargain which, for so
purely partisan an object, barters away
both the public interest in the civil service,
and his own consistency on questions of
financed If this is indeed the case, it will
have to be acknowledged that the Repub-
licans have paid an extravagant price for
Senator Mahone's vote on organization, and
it must be doubted very seriously whether
the game will in the end pay for the can
die. 1t is in fact our humble opinion that
it would have been much better to let the
Democrats organize the Senate. than to de-
feat their plans at so lamentable cost.

WHAT NEXT

The New York Times is responsible for
the statement that it is becoming fashion.
able to put wigs upon children, and that if
particularly fine head of hair is seen on
child nowadays. the presumption that it is
false win be very strong. The follies of
Fashion are no doubt inexhaustible, and
the very last thing exhibited by Fashion is
taste, 1t does not require to be said that
to make children wear wigs is disgusting
and revolving as well as ineffably silly,
but denunciation never yet suppressed an
imbecility of this character, and if it is
once understood that wigs for children
are en- reele, thousands of women will
no doubt hasten to follow the ridiculous
and pernicious fashion without thought
or care for the consequences. If,
therefore, it is found few years hence
that boys and girls just entering their
teens are becoming liable to badness. the
public viii understand that this is one of
the inevitable results of wearing wigs in
infancy. The recurrence of these customs,
which only find parallels for intelligence
and civilization on the banks of the Zam-
best or Congo. tend, Moreover. to cast serious
doubt over the theories of the sociologists
and philosophers who maintain that the race
is constantly improving in brain power.
Between women who are capable of dress
ing their children in wigs, and women who
bore holes in their noses for rings and
stick bone plugs in their lower lips. there
may be physical distinction. but sssuredly
there can be little or no intellectual differ
ence.

trines of the Constitution, when for nearly
two years San Francisco was kept in agi-
tation and apprehension, property was
deprecated and business injured, timid
people driven away and Improvements
hindered, through the reckless intemper-
ance of speech Of handful of blackguards,
who, under any less Quixotic system, would
have been laid by the heels at the begin
ming of their raid upon society. Socialism
is an excIescence upon the body polite
which calls for the knife. 1t is neither
more nor less than an attempt to organize
the turbulent and criminal elements for
the purpose of overthrowing government,
law and order. 1t is menace to civiliza-
ton, and all its manifestations are alike
indecent, brutal and insolent. It has been
carrying its red flags and spouting its
incendiary iargon in various parts of the
world for long time now, but history
affords no instance of its having accom-
plished anything. 1t has brought no re-
forms. 1t has broken no letters. 1t has
elevated no downcast people. 1t has
only encouraged and strengthened des-
potism by fortifying the impression that
all protest against tyranny emanated from
assassins and anarchists, and by its imbecile
rawlings it has in a score of cases alienated
the sympa HES of real friends of
freedom from the causes which these
laundering conspirators espoused. 1t
is time the fact was recognized
that Socialism, as preached in these days,
has nothing in common with civilization,
democracy, or progress. 1t is blindly
destructive machinery, capable only of
outrage and excess, seeking notoriety
through the melodramatic agency of mys-
terry and disguise, of pass words and signs
and grips, of pretense at conspiracy and
plotting. There are no brains behind it,
and no meritorious purposes before it. 1t is
equal to the hiring of assassins and the post
ing of threatening notices in the dark, and
that is about all 1t is an exotic, and one
which is repugnant to every American
tradition and principle. Reverence for free
4 speech was never meant to involve tolera,
ton for the insolence and turbulence of
foreign rascals who dare to seize the occa-
sion of great crime committed in Europe,
TO launch their cowardly threats at the
heads of prominent citizens of this repub-
lie. There is only one wise policy to
pursue with such miscreants, and that is to
suppress them at the first opportunity.
