A conniet of Telegraph Authorities.

CHICAGO, March 21.-The corporation re- gently chartered under the name of the Western Union Telegraph company of Jlli- nois to-day commenced quo warranto pro- ceedings against the superintendent, local manager and other officers of the Western Union Telegraph company, requiring themlto appear in court to show by what authority they exercise the rights of corporation and carry on the telegraph business in this State. The documents filed claim that even if the Western Union ever possessed such rights it has forfeited them by various and divers breaches of the State law, seven of which are enumerated. Extra clauses from afida- wits filed in law cases by the Western Union many years ago, in which it is claimed that being foreign corporation and having no local standing in the State it was not liable to taxation, were also submitted. Judge Smith in the Superior court issued sum- mons for the appearance of the officers on April 15.

Leigh, who shot and killed James Rigby at Palmer, in this county, last October, came to this city at an early hour this morning and was driven to the residence of Judge McCaskill, his attorney, and while he was there war rant was served on him. Leigh said he came for the purpose of surrendering himself to the authorities. The murder at the time of its commission created great excitement and the woods around Palmer were searched and guarded for weeks without avail. Leigh says he has been in the Michigan pineries.

Brady's Chatt-A Financial Transaction
 with WaIsh-Ths Prosecution Through
 with Brady.
 WAsH1NeToN, March 21.-In the Star route case this morning Judge Wylie gave his de cisicn admitting the question as to whether or not the witness General Brady had given the Price drafts to Walsh. An excep ton was noted by the defense and General Brady's crogs-examination was resumed. In answer to the question witness said he never saw the paper until last Friday, and never gave it to Walsh Another draft was pre- scented and he returned the same answer The witness with Walsh, visited Hatch x Foote's in New York and bought " Chntt" stock: Walsh gave his check for $21, ,000 or S94 GOO for it. The witness might have had at one time $50, GOO worth of the stock This was the only financial transaction he had ever had with Walsh. Witness denied the fine RerdeII interview. He was then questioned as to the newspapers he owned, and sad that at one time he owned the CdpftGt and Republican, but had now no interest m either. nounced that he was about through with the vitness The court said that no session would be held on Good Friday, and 1t was agreed that when the court adjourned to- morrow it should be until Monday.
 Colonel Bliss announced that the prosecu- tion had concluded with the witness ana Mr. Wilson asked few re direct questions. The remainder of the afternoon was spent by Mir. Wilson in trying to put in evidence the testi- mony given by General Brady before the Coneressional committee, but in every in stance he was met by an objection from the government which was sustained by the court MT. Wilson then subdivided the ques- lions. but they met the same fate as when propounded generally. An exception was taken to the rulings of the court in every in stance, The court adjourned until to-mor- TOW.

PROVINCE or THE NEWSPAPER

PROVINCE OF THE NEWSPAP PER.
1t was only a few days since that we
heard quoted the opinion of Thos. Jefferson
regarding the province Of II newspaper, and
from it we judge he held them in high es-
TEEN. The fact that he was himself jour
nalist and editor in the early days of the
republic doubtless gave him an opportu-
nifty Of seeing the hardships and delicacies
in the publication of newspaper
America at that time had not the inn
mense advantage, if such it be, of extensive
journalism that she now has. The tele-
phone, telegraph and locomotive were un-
known. The stage coach was daily power,
and the "Town Crier" an institution. There
were few newspapers, and none powerful
enough TO mould public opinion beyond a
small circle. To-day newspaper can be
felt, if it has the brains, all over the country
In the days of jefferson each town and
community shaped its views on public mat
tiers by its immediate surroundings The
newspaper, then, of to-day has a large re-
spohoiuiiltl
The London Times has been styled "'rhe
Thunder" but it takes good care that its
lightning does not flash around the throne
TO be great newspaper 1t is not enough
TO have a limitless exchequer, inimitable
brains or political sagacity and party devo-
ton. 1t must go to the bedrock OF public
wrongs, sutferings and interests. Ever alert
it must be the Watchdog for the peoples
liberties, regardless of party affiliations, for
the simple reason the public is looking to
the press for guidance, seeing that the club
the bar and the pulpit, TO a certain extent
are weakened in their influence To lead the
masses
newspaper may be bound by the strong.
est party lines, yet be broad, deep and true
in lis trust to the people. There are civil
issues of education, of civil improvement,
and humanity that must be secured regard
less of politics. The rights Of labor must be
sustained, and at the same time property
protected. The two must be welded for all
good purposes TO have share and share alike
in the great patrimony OF our fathers

POLITICAL ECONOMY.

A number of the Eastern journals are con-
demning the system of political economy as
now taught in the colleges of the country.
1t is claimed that in nearly all instances the
subject is treated from partisan standpoints.
This is not correct in its general sense. Po-
litical economy, as applied to the science Of
government, has but little to do with the
condition of parties. 1t may be true that
impressions are formed in colleges regard
ing the incidental relation of such questions
as free trade or protection to permanent
policy in government. But these are mere
incidents. Besides, nearly all the great col
| legiate institutions are under the control OF
men who, if they have any political lcanings
at all, incline more to Republican doctrines
than Democratic principles, as they are de-
fined by the two political organizations con-
tending for the supremacy of the govern
ment. Free trade is taught in colleges as a
principle of political economy, for the rea-
son that protection, as we have it in this
country, has never been held as any thing
more than an expedient No one eveI
heard of the science of protection. Nc
book has ever been written upon it as an
economic principle If colleges inculcate
ideas upon free trade, and illustrate its in.
f1uence upon government, it is because it is
looked upon as permanent policy, which
all governments will sooner or later attain
No college, indeed, no writer on political
economy has ever undertaken 70 demon
strated that the principles of protection, a.
we understand it in this country, can b.
safely adopted as national policy.
The protection of American manufactur
ing interests against the emoluments of for
eign competition is at most an expeden
adopted as a temporary refuge. The ad
vocates of the highest tariff are always
careful to explain that the influences they
exert are only temporary, and will even
tually give way TO unrestricted competition
in free markets. The schedule of dissimila
and unequal tariff which we have adopted
as a basis of revenue would be II remarka
bic textbook for an institution of learning
There is not an item in it that stands OF
the basis of a general principle. There i
no system in it. The logic by which ON
J mans earnings are seized by the govern
ment to swell another mans profits is dem
, onstrated to be proper and right would b
the most curious anomaly that the scienc
t of political methods has ever presented
Protection is the creature of private influ
, encc. Free trade is an economical principle
: The application of either depends upon tn
: conditions of industry.

All the operators of the Brotherhood of
Teegraphers throughout the country struck
on Thursday of last week for 10 per cent.
increase of wages and the eight-hour system
of working. The signal to quit work was
"Grant fell dead on the street in New York"
The companies and the operators remain up
to this time obstinate in their positions
There is no telling when the contest will be
settled. Meantime the business of the compa-
MES is reported to be suffering. The opera
tors are encouraged, aided and abetted in
every way TO maintain their position against
these heartless corporations which have
been declaring dividends of 10 per cent. for
six months and protest in their inability
to increase the salaries of the poorly paid
operators. The strike is conducted in the
most genteel manner and no riotous con
duct is anticipated.

The spread of cholera in Oriental lands,
and its detected presence in the London
dock districts, should stimulate our quaran-
tine authorities to the most vgilant and ex-
traordinary precautions against its introduce
ton to our shores. While the scourge was
confined to Egypt and the surrounding
countries there was little occasion for any
thing more than the most simple iegula-
tons, Our extensive communications with
England render its transportation quite an
important matter, and justify our govern
ment in making stringent regulations, and
keeping at quarantine vessels to which is
attached the slightest suspicion
