hone and his party of Debt RepudiatorA
They cannot make even the Virginia
ripple on the surface of any other South
ern State, for the reason that there -
no debt controversy in any other one
But, though they have done nothing
toward dissolving the "Solid South,
they have done something else. which
it behooyes Northern men to look well
to. They have organized elements in
the Southern States that are in favor OF
reputation and communism generally,
and having sown the wind. let them now
prepare for the whirlwind.
Mr.. Royals pamphlet presents the
case of Virginia's financial troubles with
great clearness, and since the questions
involved are likely to have animportans
place in the political campaign OF the
near future, they should be thoroughly
understood by Democrats generally. 1t
is a case of stupendous infamy, with
which the Republican party is fully
identified, and which, to make success
full, the power and patronage OF the
Government have been freely expended.

A Long Outlook for the Heir.

An old farmer living about twelve
miles west of Guelph, died recently,
leaving will, of which the substance is
as follows: The son works the farm till
his stepmother's death, at the end of
which time he has to commence paying
installments on $4,000 to the rest of the
family at a yearly rate of $50 a year, and
when he gets all paid off he will get the
farm in his own possession. 1t will be
seen that after the stepmother's death it
will be sixty years before the son gets
the farm, and as the woman is yet in the
prime of life and healthy, it is calculated
she may live another forty years. The
son is now thirty years of age, and when
he can claim the farm, by this reckoning
he will be 100 years old. The old man
must either have thought life much longer
than it is or else he was afraid his boy
might turn a spendthrift if allowed to
get the property sooner.-Montreal W.T.

therefore, which the Senator's party is
said to be making to repudiate this debt,
it is brought face to face with the author
ity of the Supreme Court.
"It seems incredible that the official
head of this Nation would embark the
authority of the Nation in an enterprise,
the purpose of which is to commit vio-
lent robbery by plundering just credit

that he should embark the Nations au-

chief means for executing it are the null

financial situation of Virginia and gives
the history of the debt of the State,

RIVER UNDER GROUND.
The Startling Discovery Recently
Made by a Herder In Idaho.
From the Idaho Democrat.

From the Idaho Democrat.
Mete Green, not long since, while
out with his cattle, made a most
startling discovery, and one that may
possibly take its place among the
grand wonders of Idaho. He was
riding along early in the morning on
the divide between Indian Creek and
Snake River, when his horse sprang
aside, snorted and otherwise gave
evidence Of having seen or heard
something unusual. The spot was
on a little knoll on the comb of the
ridge, and Mete, who had been al
most asleep, taking a sweep around
with his eyes to learn the cause of
his horses behavior, finally rested
his vision on what seemed to be
hole in the ground few PAGES dis
tant. Dismounting he was soon
looking into a funnel-shaped orifce
Is or 20 feet deep by 10 or II at it's
rim in diameter.
At the bottom of this funnel-the
soil giving out there-was a rift in

by four or 5 in length, which seemed
to open into the very bowels of the
earth Through this aperture came
up from the depths below, a terrible
roaring, as of leaping cataract,
mighty rush of waters, tumbling
over rocks. The ground trembled
and the subterranean noise continued
uninterruptedly. Mete remained
some time, and the longer he listened
the more convinced he became that
what he heard was running water,
but how far down to the stream he
could not even conjecture-might
have been few feet or half way to
China. And as the assure was large
enough to take him in should his
foot slip, or ''head SWIM" his obser-
walton was not an extended one. The
principal thing he did while there
was to listen low and strong and
think loud-at safe distance from
the brink of the hole.

THE STATE DEBT CASE.

For the last six months the pubs
lie mind has been excited over the
suit pending before the Supreme
Court to test the constitutionality of
what's known as the 1908 law, pass
ed by the last Legislature Our read.
ers are well acquainted with the pro-
visions of this law, the circumstances
under which it was passed, and what
followed in the institution of this
suit. The Supreme Court yesterday
decided the law unconstitutional, as
will be seen by refer
ence to our special dispatch
from Nashville, published elsewhere
AS we write, we have nothing be-
fore us, except the bare fact that
majority of the court have decided
the law to be unconstitutional. Be
fore this reaches the public, we will
have fuller particulars, with the
grounds upon which the court based
its decision, all of which will be re
ceived by our readers simultaneous,
ly with this editorial. It is grave
thing to criticise the official acts of
our highest judicial tribunal, and
this we will not do until we have
fuller information upon the subject.
For the sake of the court, for the
sake of the State, and for the
sake of the country at large,
we sincerely trust that the ma
lority of the courts have succeeded
IN giving overpowering reasons for
their decision, that there will be no
difference of opinion among intelli>
gent men as to it's correctness. Much
as we desired that the decision of the
court should have been otherwise,
we would rejoice to know that we
have been wrong and that the court
has given correct decision.
Right here, however, is a fact that
must subject the court to the Sc
verest criticism. Last Monday, five
days before the opinion of the court
was made public, half a million
dollars in Tennessee bonds was
thrown upon the market, and they
began to decline in value. On
Wednesday and Thursday the excite
ment continued, and nearly two
and half millions were sold during
the two days mentioned. We have
received no account of the transac-
tons of Friday. Why was this?
Had some member of the court given
out in advance what the decision was
to be? Was any member of the
court interested In these transactions?
We trust not. We will make no
comment on these facts now. We
will await further developments, and
when the opinion of the court is re'-
ceived, will give it a fair and impair
tial reading. Until then we will res
serve any criticism that We may feel
called upon to make.
We confess our deep disappoint-
ment at the result, and can scarcely
trust ourselves to comment upon it
now. It re-opens yexatious ques-
ton which we ardently hoped had
been settled forever. 1t gives en>
enlargement to the most unscrupul-
Gus, inefficient, the lowest and meanest
class of political demagogues who
ever cursed State. Politically, they
are now on top, and will be, unless
all the elements in the State oppos-
ed to reputation, unite and make
common cause against the ignomin
ious crew who are now moving heav-

BRADLAUaH, the English agitator,
finds the way to a seat in the British
House of Commons, hard road to
travel. He is an avowed atheist and
has taken the pains to state the fact
on all occasions in the most offensive
manner possible. When first elected
to the House of Commons, he object
ed to taking the required Off
cial oath, saying that it had
no efficacy for him. He
afterwards repented, when he found
that he could not obtain the seat
without it, and said he would take
the oath, and presented himself for
that purpose but was forcibly ejec-
ted. There is penalty attached to
the application for seat in that
body, by one who is disqualified,
and he was indicted. Judgment
was obtained against him and
he appealed. Pending the APPS
peal, he is again knocking at the
door of the House of Commons with
