The Raillrdy Age says: During the
6rst four months of the present year there
were 40 miles Of main track laid,
AGAINST 800 miles during the correspond

owing 70 the cold winter and backward
spring interfering with the work. Not
vTifhstanding this fact the mileage thus

The President is bound by the letter of

well, to see that Mr.. Malone shall no Ion

of the United States shall not be plum

In desperate attempt to be witty the
Republican says the thing the Democratic
party most needs is grave and the cOur-
age to crawl into it. In view of the fact
that the Democrats seem to be coming to
the White House at a twO-ten gait the
aforesaid attempt is rather chastity.

No Danger of a Panic.

Some people talk Of panic, and the
good Mr.. Keene foresees a crash such as
was never heard before. But the first
condition for real panic is general con-
fidence, and confidence we have not had
in financial circles since 1878. There
have been individual instances of reck-
lessness and there has been wild specula-
ton; but the general money market can
not be said to indicate confidence so long
as per cent. bonds sell at 120, and per
cents sell above par, in new and grow
ing country like this. The croakers can
look the bond list over and they need not
feel sure of ruin until there are more
Sims of confidence shown there.

on motion for an injunction, Judge Wal
lace declined to heart it. An effort was made
10 get Judge Shipman to hear argument
on the motion for an injunction, but
he also declined, being a stakeholder
in the company. Awhile ago Judge Wal
lace dissolved a temporary injunction OBJ
tanned by Leo. restraining the company
from issuing stock, but since then has be-
come a stakeholder, hence his refusal to
hear the case. About two years ago a
suit Of like import was called before Cir

states Supreme Court, but he declined to
hear the argument as he was stock
holder in the company sued. 1t cannot

The Iron Industry at the South.

The fact that certain kinds of cotton
goods are manufactured more cheaply at
the South than at the North is pretty gen.
orally known, and it would appear thatthe
near future must witness a remarkable
development of the cotton industry at the
South. To the view of the thoughtful
the supremacy of the South in this
line is but a question Of time. The de
velOpment of the iron industry in the
South has had later beginning, but the
progress that is being made is decidedly
encouraging. 1t is certain that pig iron
can be made far more cheaply in many
parts of the South than at the
North. That Northern capitalists are
satisfied of this, is evidenced
by the steady increase Of Southern fur
naces backed by capital furnished by
Northern men. The st. Louis Republican,
noting the fact that the Midland Blast
Furnace Company engaged in making
iron in Crawford county, Missouri, has
increased its original capital ofSl00,0 900 to
$500, 900, remarks:
1'This. at a time when the iron business
i'm Pennsylvania and Ohio is Sc depressed
as to be leading TO frequent failures and
partial suspension Of Work. is highly en-
c0uraglng g the growth of the industry
In our State. The failures, suspensions
and disputes between masters and work
men in Pennsylvania and Ohio, are sign
that iron making is about to leave those
States and seek cheaper and better helds.
1t costs all of $21 ton to make pig
iron in Pennsylvania, we are told, and
nearly as much in Ohio. But 1t can be
made-indeed, it is now made-fOr Sl1 a
| ton in Tennessee and Alabama, and we
presume 1t Gamble made at nearly these
! figures in Missouri. 1t is certainly a
| great waste to send Missouri ore to Pitts
| burg for making iron when if can be made
| into pig iron at least So ton cheaper
here than there. In five years from this
| time Missouri. Tennessee and Alabama
will be the most interesting fields for the
prosecution of this important business in
! the country
Georgia, too, is making progress in this
direction. and is destined to take high
rank in this industry. There can be nc
doubt that the South is about to enter
upon a new era of progress and pros.
p9ity.

The Philadelphia Telegraph rep, con-
tinues its defense of Governor PattisOn,
of Pennsylvania, against his Democratic
censOrs. 1t says:
THE charge that the Governor is not
Governor, that he is controlled by others,
is absurd, though it might be admitted
that if others hold the reins, they are ex-
ceedingly well held. The charge that he
has not asked the advice or counsel of
the Democratic politicians, is true. and
it dispr0ves the fact that he does not
shape his own administration. Because
he does not make his own administration,
because he does not ask the advice or
consent of the pOliticians-whichis to say
because he does not permit this Senator
and that Representative to 90 into his
office, and, with heels on his desk, make
or run his administratiOn-he is con-
demned by the politicians, He is the
same sort of Governor as Comptroller. He
was sole Comptroller: he is sole Cover
nor. And that is his chief offense."
