LOGICAL,
We wonder II all the people who advocate
free transportation of children on railroads
| would, being shoppers for instance, uphold
the doctrine as applied to themselves, that
anything child might want from their
stolos should be given free Of charge be,
cause the asker Was a child. Infants IN
arms arc properly transported free, but
children occupying seats should he charged
iOr II not 90 iull rates, certainly at such
prices os would give the company some
compensation for the work it does. Fl Long

TUE srArE CONSTITUTION.
10 is generally believed now that there
will be 3 constitutional convention. There
are 50 many amendments pending that, II
adopted, the Old one viii not be recognized
for the patches.
The people heretofore have showa them
selves averse commandments by voting then
down. The precedent will no doubt be fol-
lowed should other amendments be sub.
mitted. The present constitution is vitality
defective in some respects, but the great
majority of the people are superstilOusly
afraid OF Tails County
