any good property that their country

are bound to engage in every industry

this does not benefit us, for every ounce

A Mi1IlOnaire's Motto.

Mr.. William H. Vanderbilt is max
ing trip to the West to see the coun
try and the railroads. He arrived a.
Chicago on Sunday afternoon. A cor
respondent of the New York Time,
had an interview with him there. The
talk related to the rich mans railroad
! interests, and in the course of conver.
sation the reporter asked MIR. Wander
bilt whether his limited express did not
pay.
No, not bit of it," was the response
ave only run it because we are forced
to do so by. the action of the Pennsyl.
vania road. 1t does not pay expenses
We would abandon it if it was not
for our competitor keeping its train
on"
"But don't you run it for the public
| benefit?" asked the guIeless CORE
| spondet. ,[tt
"The public be damnedv' said Mr..
Vanderbilt. "What does the public
care for the railroads, except to get as
much out of them for as small a con-
sideration as possible? 1 don't take
any stock in this silly nonsense about
working for anybody's good but our
own, because we are not"
Here we have the true sentiments of
the heart. The public be damned!
This is what William HI. Vanderbilt
says to the people Of the United States.
How do they like it?
Through the exercise OF the right of
eminent domain the public have es-
tablished the great railways in which
his millions are so profitably invested.
Through the legislative power the pub
lie have created the corporations which
enable individuals to own and use vast
al
without incurring the excessive liabil-
tiles of partners. The public protect
this man daily, hourly, indeed through
out every minute of his existence, in
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happi-
ness; and yet, forsooth, he feels himself
so superior to mankind that he con-
temptuously exclaims, "The public be
damnedr'
Let him put this motto on the out
side of the palace car in which he, is
dashing through the country with his
hilarious party of festive friends. Let
him blaZon it on his carriage. Let him
write it across the famous imitation
Florentine doors of his costly residence
on the Fifth avenue. Let him inscribe
it in plain view high on the walls of
the Grand Central Depot in this city, so
that men, women, and children may
see what William III. Vanderbilt said
last Sunday: "The public be damned!'
Underneath it might be placed an
other remark of his uttered on the
occasions: Railroads are not run on sem
timent, but on business principles, and /
to pay" To illustrate the business
principles, there should be reference
to the Spuyten Duyvil disaster and |
the tunnel collision, followed by the |
words "More to come!"
Every body knows that the old Com
modore hesitated long and anxiously
before he decided to give his money

can wonder at it now.-Nes0 York

Poetic Justice.

We cannot sympathize with our Re
publican friends, who are apparently
so agonized by the methods of fraut
and Filley, or Filley and fraud. W.
cannot sympathize with them in theil
sudden last-hour outcry against low
methods or "hoodlumism" in politics
They may be perfectly right. We dare
| say they are perfectly right in many ol
| their complaints about boss rule and
| mismanagemento of their party in this
State. Yet they are not entitled to
any sympathy.
They are earning what they deserve.
They are only fighting their own crea-
ton. The evil harvest that now shocks
them is the product of their own plod-
ding and ploughing.
If the methods of Filley in the local
management of the Republican party
are SO bad as to justify this revolt OF
the self-styled 'moral" sentiment, what
were the methods to which this same
"moral" element of the party not only
submitted, but which it eagerly ap-
proved in the Republican parts of the
nation during the rule of Grant, Hayes
and Company?
What is the packing of primary
compared with the packing of the Su-
preme Court of the United States? Yet
Grant did it and we never heard these
honorable Republican reformers object
or protest.
What is the perjury of small letter.
carrier compared with the monstrous
wholesa ale perjury of Presidential cleo
tors, Returning Boards, Electoral Com
missions, United States Senators and
United States Supreme Judges?
What is the personal interference of
one individual, now out of Office, and
without any power of patronage what
ever, compared with the despotic in
terference of Grant in State Govern
ments by ygunboats and bayonets?
What is the theft of precinct COM
pared with the theft of the Presi-
dency?
Yet these highly honorable reform
ers, who are now so shocked because
Filley does not respect anything but
success, submitted, applauded, enjoyed
and hailed with enthusiasm political
or partisan successes that were mill
ion times worse that were the result
of force, fraud, bribery, perjury, whole
sale corruption and the monstrous vio-
lation of the Constitution!
Chickens come home to roast. If
Filley is master of the machine, and
master of machine methods, it is due
to these very reformers who for many
years past supported this same Filley
and his machine, no matter how low,
disreputable or outrageous, as long as
it seemed to lead to Republican success.

We see it stated in the Eastern pa
pers that it was intended to have a
grand reunion this year of the Union
a nd Confederate officers and men who
were engaged In the battle of Gettys-
burg; but, owing to the enterprise be-
ing started too late to perfect all neces-
sary arrangements, it was deferred
until next year, when it is hoped to
have a grand affair of it. Those are
the kind of reunions to be encouraged, j,
where the old beligerants can again
meet in fraternal fellowship, after all
bitterness has passed away; and if
there is any left, thus meeting togeth-
er will soon dissipate it.
We hope the next reunion at Pilot
Knob will be such one as will secure
the attendance of the officers and men
of both the Union and Confederate ar
mics, and then grand time can be
had.

A prominent German brewer of GIN
cinnati said to New York S,s,a corre-
spondent the night before the election
in Ohio: 1--WE do not regard this as a
temperance fight at all. The German
saloon keepers of Cincinnati are per-
fectly willing to pay license on their
traffic, and to close up on Sunday.
They want, however, a Sunday law
th&s will protect them in closing, and
not allow somebody else to sell through
back doors while we do not sell at all
What the Germans do object to is the
manner in which Charley Foster and
Deacon Richard Smith are inclined to
treat us. They will take occasion to-
morrow to resent Charley Fosters
statement classing the Germans of
Ohio with thieves and harlots. We
propose to show them, if possible, that
the Germans are as much ]aw-abiding
citizens as anybody else. I, for one,
do not like to vote the Democratic
ticket, but I shall do so tomorrow, ,.and
my employees will do the same"

Further evidence that the South en-
joys large measure of prosperity is
furnished bss prominent New York
merchants. who were lately interview.
ed by Tribune reporter. A dry goods
man said:
"The effect of the good crops at the South
on trade has been very perceptible. In that
section the people are rejoicing in greater
diversity of crops than they have had before
their grain crops are excellent and there is
promise of good cotton crop. Consequent
ly the Southern merchants are fast getting
into an improved condition"
A wholesale merchant said:
"There is no grumbling this year on the
part of merchants from the South; they are
all hopeful and cheerful. They have had the
best grain crops they ever had and the cot
ton crop promises WELL"
The merchants of other cities in the
North who have dealings with that
great and growing section bear the
same testimony. Better than all, the
Southern papers TEEN with facts which
confirm the most glowing reports of
the fine condition of the South.

The Chicago Times thinks the fire.
quency with which a certain class OF
Juveniles on the North Side in that city
are being implicated in robberies and
burglaries, suggests that the Sunday
school teacher has lost his grip, or the
class referred to was kept out of the
reach of the gospel. What makes it
think so is beca use few weeks ago 10
year-old girl was taken to the Chicago
avenue station who had stolen over
ST. 900 worth of clothing and trinkets
from the fashionable section of that di-
vision, and a few nights after two boys
were taken in who had burglarized
stores, saloons and barns of goods, ci-
gars, horses and wagons; and because,
more recently, gang of these urchins
pitched upon man on West Huron
street and slashed him in the back
with a knife, from the effects of which
he will never fully recover; and be-
cause (worst of all y girl 10 years old
was arrested last Saturday for stealing
a bag of oats and disposing of them to
some junk dealers.
