Railroad Building.

In view of the somewhat stagnaht condi>
ton of business, the result of the poor crops
of last year it is generally supposed that this
country has almost stopped building railroads
and given mp similar industrial enterprises.
Instead OF this being the case, we have built
n. re railroads during the first few months of
this year, and laid more miles Of track than
ever before in this same period of time From
January | to June I, 25O0 miles of road were
completed, as compared with 24OO in the
same time iu 1881, which stands as a cham.
pon year in the history of American railroad
building.
A prominent feature Of the years business
is the good showing that the Southern States
make. While 63S miles of road were con-
structed in the Pacific Coast States and Terri.
tories, li0l miles were buil, in the South and
only l460 in al! the other Sia,es-Easiern.
Western and Middle. With less than one
third the population. the South has built this
year as many miles of railroad as the North
This is conclusive evidence that the South
ern "boom" is not yet at an end, and that the
South has new and promising future ahead
Of it. These railroads are not only evidence
Of growth and development but they will
help along this very development, and add to
the wealth and prosperity Of this sec,ion.-
Times Deniocrat.
That is all very true, but it is an evidences
Of two other things-,hat the North has abou
all the railroad. that are needed and that the
South has nothing like half The roads that art
needed.

There is an hiatus i'm the executive branch,

Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General and
jndge of any conr, before which a conviction
is had, upon whose recommendation the Gov.
ernor may pardon, commute sentences, &c.,
as he sees proper. Now, it is plain that the
Governor may also act upon the recnmenda-
ton of any two of the board; hut there is nU
Lieutenant Governor and, as it is held that
the President pro .em. Of the Senate is moi
empowered to perform this duty, in case OF a
disagreement between the Attorney General
and judge this construction would, in cerain
cases, bring about singular and iragical conse-
Quences. For instance If there should be a

General and judge do not agree on recon-
