A CELEBRATED CASE.
The Supreme Court Says that State
May Regulate Railroad Fares.

In the United States Supreme Court at
Washington, Chief Justice Waite has
rendered an opinion in the famous case
called the granger case-of Neal Rug
giles, plintitf in error, against the State of
illinois; in error to the Supreme Court of
Illinois. The facts of the case are as set
forth below: On the 18th of March, 1878,
Morgan A. Lewis, a passenger on a train
of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
railroad company, rendered Neal Rug
giles, conductor of that company, eight
teen cents for his transportation from
Buda to Neponsit, a distance of six miles.
This was at the maximum rate of three
cents per mile, prescribed by the statute
OF Illinois, then in force. The conductor
demanded twenty cents, which was the
fare fixed by the railroad company. Lewis
refused to pay more than eighteen cents
and the conductor, therefore attempted
to eject him from the car. For this act
the conductor was prosecuted before
justice OF the peace upon 4 charge of as
sault and battery, and was fined ten dol
ried up through the State court by sue
cessive appeals, the railroad company
sustaining the conductor, and raising the
question OF the right of the State to in
tcrfere with its business by fixing rates
OF fares and transportation. A decision
was finally rendered in favor of the State
by its highest court, and the railroad
company, therefore, appealed to the Su-
preme Court of the United States upon
the ground that the act of the General
Assembly of Illinois, of April 10, 1871,
fixing maximum rate of charges for the
transportation of passengers in the State
was unconstitutional and void, because
it impaired the obligation of the various
companies which were merged into the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Rail
road Company by consolidation. This
court holds, first, that grants Of immun-
ity from legitimate governmental control
are never to be presumed. On the con-
trary, the Prescriptions are all the other
way, and unless an exemption is clearly
established the Legislature is free to act,
in all respects, within its general juris-
diction as public interests may seem to
require. A State may limit the amount
of charges by railroad companies for fares
and freights, unless restrained by some
contract in the charter. Second. That
in the present case there is no such re-
straint. The State, it is true. has given
the Board of Directors of the railroad
company the power to establish such
rates for the conveyance of person or
property as they shall from time to time
by their bylaws determine" but such
bylaws must not be repugnant to the
Constitution and bylaws of the State
If the State had not the Legislative power
to regulate the charge of carriers for
hire the case would be different but that
question has been settled, and the amend
ed charter which this company received
from the Legislature must be construed
in the light of the established power.
The judgment of the Supreme Court of
Illinois is affirmed, with costs.

ESSAY WRITING IN SCHOOL.


Public attention is being directed to
the advantages of the new method of
teaching English history adopted in the
public schools of Boston. The pupils
are required to write essays on subjects
given them, instead of answering ques-
lions orally as they formerly did under
the old system.
At examinations they are required to
write, without reference or consultation
within specified time, on themes given
by their examiners. Of course, much
practice is required before the pupils can
write readily enough to bear the test, and
the method may be easily abused by
making children overtax their minds with
dates and other statistics. But writing
mas become very important feature of
instruction in the best public schools, and
it may prove remedy for the lack Of
thoroughness which is the great defect
of our public school system. A wise
man has said that he never really knows
thing until he has written it, and I'M
doubtedly to have child write an essay
on topic in history, geography or science
is to impress upon his mind more deeply
than can be done in any other way the
information he obtains concerning the
given subject. The Chicago schools have
made wise use of the pen in instruction,
and even the essays delivered at the reg
ular rhetorical exercises are chiefly re-
views of books, biographies of celebrat-
ed persons and descriptions the subject
of each essay being assigned by teacher.
Essay writing of the old sort has been
superseded by kind that is practical
and highly useful III more than one way.
The introduction of the new method is
likely to be universal, and it will soon
be regarded as indispensable as an agent
of instruction.

Gus storms in Mississippi and Georgia,
last month, the Kansas City cyclone ex-
hibits the need of the extension of tele-
graphic facilities to enable the Weather
Bureau to give prompt warning of the
probability Of the formation of de-
structve storm. If the people of the
West are careful in the selection of build
ing sites and in the construction of
houses to resist terrific gales, the loss
through tornadoes will soon be reduced
to minimum. 1t should also be borne
in mind by persons who find themselves
in the awful hush which precedes the
bursting forth of a cyclone that there is
no record of fatal injury to people who
have fled to cellars for protection. An
accessible cellar, built with strong walls
and substantial cover, is an extremely
important apartment in the construction
of dwelling in the West.

A Doubtful Dynamite Story.

A cable despatch from London to a
New York paper on Tuesday, sayst The
Times says the partcul ars of the attempt
to destroy steamer plying between
Liverpool and New York have just leaked
out at the former place. 1t appears that
just before the vessel referred to left Liv-
erpool FOR New York on her last voyage,
having on board number of emigrants,
a man gave the steward box and re-
quested him as a favor to convey it to
New York. The stewards suspicious
were aroused, and he consulted the cap
tain, who ordered that the box be opened.
This was done in the presence of the cap
tain and officers, and the box was found
to contain an Internal machine. The con-
tents of the box were thrown overheard,
but the box itself was retained and
note made of the address upon it. TIE
fact of this discovery was not made
known publicly in New York on the YES
sells arrival there, but the British consul
general in that city was notified of it.
The steamer has just returned to the
Mersey from New York. The name of

What the London Times Saws.

dynamite party ut is possible, if o,
Donovan Rosa keeps temporarily quiet,
Americans will again lose sight of the
true facts of the Irish question. In all
candor and kiadliness we ask the Ameri-
can people to rid their minds of prejudi-
ces, and recognize that the denuncia-
tions by Irishmen of England are not
now justified, but refer to by-gone his

to put down organized ruflianism which
pretends to impunity and encourage
ment under their flag. If they do not
bestir themselves for their own charac-
ter and comfort they are LITTLE likely to

recognize facts. The whole of England
is convinced that the government hss

THE KANSAS CITY CYCLONE

Kansas City has had a wonderful es-
cape from an appalling calamity, although
several lives and property worth hun
dreds of thousands of dollars were de-
stroyed by the cyclone which swept over
the southern part of the city, recently
1t must be regarded as very wonderful
that terrific cyclone should have torn
track more than a block wide through
city of sixty thousand inhabitants with
out causing greater loss of life and prop
erty. The course of the funnel-shaped
cloud from which the hurricane was
hurled, confirms the theory that the di-
rection of the destructive storms of the
West, is from southwest to northeast,
and it suggests again the wisdom of Sc
lecting sites for towns, and farm build
ings on the northeast slope of a hill large
enough to give the funnel of tornado
bound over the adjacent valley. Like

REAL CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS

The eleventh annual report of the
Franklin Reformatory Home for Inebri-
ates at Philadelphia, has recently been
published. This admirably conducted
and eminently successful institution
is peculiar. The principles on which
it is managed, as stated in the re.
port of the acting superintendent, are
these: The object Of the Home is the
permanent reformation of inebriates. In
temperance is regarded as a sin; it can
therefore be cured only by the subject of
it himself, aided by Gods grace; and the
Home furnishes the conditions under
which the trial may be made with the
best promise of success. The patients
physical condition is first the object of
the most solicitous care. A skillful ply
sician's irections as to food. exercise,
attention and occupation are implicitly
carried out. The body having been
broaght back, so far as is possible, to it's
normal condition, the patient is en-
couraged mentally and morally, but not
by any namby- PANTY sentiment-thath he
is an unfortunate victim of inherited
tendencies,' and other nonsense-but by
showing HIM that he is a drundard be-
cause of his own acts, and that the only
way for him to recover is by an exercise
of the will and by divine aid 70 many
persons this may seem a visionary and
unscientitic way to reform drunkard;
to us it seems the only way that is at all
likely to be successful. The results
speak for themselves. During 1882, 300
men were received and 265 discharged,
142 of whom gave evidence of !, thorough
reformation, 30 were improved, 26 doubt
full, and Go failures Fortyeight per cent.
more than most temperance ''move-
ments'' can show.

The Highest Flat.

Plans were fled in New York on Mon
day for building that, when completed,
will be the highest in that city. 1t is to
be flat house for 80 families, and is to
stand on the northwest corner Of Fifty
seventh street and Seventh avenue. The
top of the building, when the roof is on,
will be 1872 feet above the curb, fully 30
feet higher than any other house in New
York. The walls of the first story will
be three feet thick, and taper to the top
of the tenth story, that, with an attic
above it, will be the full height of the
front. In the rear. however, the build
ing will contain fifteen stories. 1t will
be of stone, brick and iron throughout,
and will cost $3.50, 900.

Liberating Indian Slaves.

ID. NJ. Riordan, of the Navajo Indian
Agency. writes to the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs, under date of Fort Def

Gently informed that boy had been
killed by member of Francisco Cap
itain's' band. An investigation followed
and it was ascertained that the boy was a
slave of the murderer. The agent says
the owners of slaves have always held
that they had absolute power over them.
and thought as little of killing one of
them as they would dog. They beat
and starved them, as the mood possessed,
and, in short, acted toward them as slave
drivers generally do. Consequently they
seemed unable to comprehend why took
so much interest in dead slave, or why
| should bother my head about such
trifle. | learned from
Francisco Captain that the entire family
of the murdered boy and five other per-
sons were held as slaves;
that the original slaves were two Moqui
girls, who were bought for coin four
generations ago; that all their descend
ants were considered slaves, and SO treat
ed-all of which he considered perfect
ly natural thing to do. Some time ago
the father of the murdered boy asserted
his right to be free. The killing of the
boy was thought to be the right thing to
remind him of his dependent condition.
knowing the tedious expensive and I'M
certain process of securing 4 conviction
under our laws, especially in our terri
torial courts, the difficulty in procuring
witnesses, ETC., | determined to at least
secure the liberation of all the remaining
slaves, and demanded that all those now
among the Indians, held in bondage,
should be set free. They said it would
completely upset them, etc. One old
villain wanted to know Who will take
care of me if my slaves are taken away ?"
Agent Riordan; according to his report,
insisted that all of the slaves should be
freed and the Indians finally acceded to
his demand He estimates that there are
about three hundred persons held in
bondage by this tribe, some of whom are
war captives while others are the re-
suits of trade and purchase. The de-
scendants of these, he says, are always
considered slaves. The Indian Bureau
has approved the stand taken by Agent
Riordan, and will render him every as
sstance possible in carrying out his
plans.
