1884 1867, Twcnty-thrcc years
have passed away and a generation
then in their cradles have come to
manhood and womanhood since the
fall Of Sumter 10 this new genera
ton, and many Of those who are older
perhaps a brief statement Of the qucs
tions at issue, and which were settled
by four years Of war, 50 far as war can
settle such questions, may be Of in
tcrest There were certain leading
ideas upon which the South and the
North differed radically: T.. State
Sovereignty vs.. National Sovereignty
The old question so ably debated by
Calhoun and Hayne upon the one
side, and Webster upon the other, was
not settled by that memorable contest
in the United State, Congress in 1890
For thirty years the South asserted and
re-asserted their pet doctrine, and at
last submitted to the test OF the sword
their belief that each state was sover
eign, and had not only right to nullify
the laws Of the United States when
they displcased her, but also to with
draw from the Union when she saw fit
to do so. The North accepted the
issue, holding that all laws OF the
United States in accord with the con
stitution were supreme in every state
and must be obeyed and that a state
once in the Union and star once
added to the flag could no more be
torn from thence than star could be
torn from the armament q 1t was a
contest between Slavery and Freedom.
AT the very FIRST, before the first gun
was fired, the South clearly defined her
position. The government of the so
called Confederate States of America
was perfected, March II, 1901 The
constitution provided that "the insti-
tuition of negro slavery, as it now exists
in the Confederate States, shall he
recognized and protected by (heir)
congress- As il to dispel all doubt as
to their purpose to establish powerful
slaveocracy Alexander H. Stephens,
the new vice-president, in a speech at
Savannah, Georgia, on the eIst OF
March, after confessing that Jefferson
and most of the leading statesmen who
formed the constitution of the United
States were opposed to slavery, as
"wrong in principle and "a violation
of the laws Of nature, said "lhose
ideas, however, were fundamentally
wrong. Our new government is
founded upon exactly the opposite
idea its foundations are laid, its corner
stone rests, upon the great truth that
the negro is not the equal of the white
man that slavery, subordnation to the
superior race, is his natural and norma
condition This, our new government
is the first in the history of the worlo
based upon this great physical, philo
sophica and moral truth. The North
at first, was not ready to accept thi
issue "Restore the Union with shaver,
intact !" was the war-cry and the purpos
of the North. But Gods thought
were not as mans thoughts 1t tool
two years of almost continuous dcfea
and disaster to bring the loyal Nortl
TO the point where they were willing tC
change their war-cy to "Slavery mus
perish The Union and Liberty !
January l, 1868, Lincoin's Emancipa
ton Proclamation took effect. Then
at last, the vital issues were clearl
defined. 1t was no longer merely
war for national unity, but also 70
emancipation and liberty.

THE STEd .uSHIP SERVICE.

Ii is authoritatively announced that
hereafter the Pacific Mail steamers will
no longer bring to or carry from this
port either freight or passengers for
San Fiancisco. The decision on part
of the mail company is the result of an
arrangement entered into with the
Oceanic Company, to hold good for
one year, whereby the Oceanic Com
pany will control the Californian trade
of this port, and the Mail Company
will have monopoly Of the Chinese
passenger traffic between Hongkong
and here. 1t is plain proposition
that the Oceanic steamers cannot pay
unless they do have monopoly Of the
trade with this port. 1t is an equally
plain proposition that monopoly such
as the one outlined by the present ar
rangemcnt outweighs many OF the ad-
vantages of the semi-monthly steamer
service between here and San Fran
cisco. We cannot exist and enjoy any
feeling OF independence under such
rigorous conditions. The conduct OF
the Mail Company in this matter is
simply despikable. But it is merely
carrying out an oit-repeated policy OF
seeking the company's selfish interests
and ignoring the rights of patrons when
ever it could be done with impunity.

The German Vote.

The Republican leaders are beginning
TO exhibit some alarm about Ohio. If
that State should happen to go Demo-
cratic in October Blaine's prospects would
be seriously damaged. In fact Demo-
cratic victory in Ohio in October would
mean Republican defeat in November.
Ohio is regarded as a Republican State,
and under ordinary circumstances is a
Republican State, but at present 1t
doesn't look as if the circumstances
would be ordinary. 1t is admitted
that the Germans hold the bal
ance of power. They have always
been counted on to vote the Republican
ticket. At the last State election they
executed a complete sOmersault and
landed in the Democratic camp. They
dropped Democratic votes in the ballot
boxes by the thousand. The cause OF this
change in the German vote was the legis-
Iation of the Republican Legislature
against the free sale of beer and other in
toxicating liquors. The result Of the
change was to elect Hoadly, Democrat,
Governor by a majority of $1,000.
Garfield carried the State by q
majority OF JO,OOO lOuf years ago.
Will the Germans vote with the Demo-
Gratis this year, or will they go back to
their old allies, the Republicans That's
a question that cannot be answered with
any degree of certainty. The indications
are that they will vote with the Demo-
Gratis. One of the strongest indications is
that all the newspapers published in the
German language in the State have de-
cIared against Blaine and Logan. There
are seventeen of these papers and they
exercise a very great influence among
the Germans. 1t is not improbable
that their influence will be
sufficient to give the German vote to the
Democrats. The Republicans have rea-
son to be alarmed. Unfortunately for
them the disaffection among the Germans
is not confined to Ohio. tits cropping out
in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and other
Western States. The Blaine managers
have work to do. and with not the most
encouraging prospect that their work will
be successful.

Eors Threatened.

New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City
are threatened with fogs like those which
at times make London place to be avoid
ed. Those who have never had any expe-
rience with a London fog can form very
little idea Of it. 1t is so thick that travel
and traffic are in a great measure sus-
pended while it envelOps the city. The
darkness of a stormy, moonless midnight
is much preferable to it. In the darkness
the street lamps are guide. In the fog
the street lamps are practically useless.
New York doesn't want to be afflicted with
such fOgs as London is troubled with;
but it is believed that it will have to con-
tend with just such fOgs in the near fu-
ture. The London fogs are believed to be
caused by the consumption of soft coal.
New York is rapidly becoming a large
consumer of soft coal. A view Of the
city from an elevated position shows this
to be the case. Black smoke now issues
from thousands of chimneys, where less
than year or so ago only gray smoke
was seen. The cause. of this is that
bituminOus coal has lately become cheaper
than anthracite. The anthracite is pre-
ferred, but preference gives way to cheap
ness. 1t is estimated that in the three
cities, New York, Brooklyn and Jersey
CITY, 1000, 900 tons more of bituminous
coal were used this season than ever
before. This does not indicate the in
crease in the consumption of coal, but the
extent to which bituminous has sup
planted anthracite coal.

A FEW GOOD HITS.
MedItating on South Americas Tr

Meditating on South Americas Trade
During the Saturday night session Of
the House, says Washington special tc
the New York San, by the time it got well
on toward Sunday morning, some of the
discussions became little rambling, as
this episode in the debate on the consular
and diplomatic bill may suggest:
The Speaker-The gentleman has two
minutes of his time remaining.
Mr.. Blount-I do not believe will use
that.
Mr.. Springer Ito Mr.. Blouni Give ii
to me.
Mr.. Blount-What side are you on?
Mr.. Springer-0n your side.
Mr.. Blount-All right.
Mr.. Springer-The gentleman gives me
his two minutes time. [ am quite as
anxious as gentlemen on the other side,
and few gentlemen on this side, to have
the trade Of South Carolina laughter of
the South American republics. \
But you can send commissioners to South
America from now until the day of judy
ment, and you may drink barrels and
barrels of champagne with the people
there, and you can never sell wool hat
to a single citizen of those countries
until you can sell it as cheap rs or cheap
er than such articles are 6 cd by the
countries of Europe.
Here the hammer fell, and just after
wards Mr.. Eaton got the floor for half a
minute:
Mr.. Eaton-One-half minute! l will
take just quarter of a minute to tell my
friend from Illinois Mr.. Springerl that
the champagne which he drinks, which
comes out of barrels laughter, is not the
kind consumed by the people in the coun-
tries now under discussion.
A few good-humored hits of this kind
contrasted favorably with some of the
personalities resorted to in Sunday nights
session.

rhe nrnrch of nrononolies.

The manner in which great syndicates
are monopolizing nearly all the important
business interests Of the country Is be-
coming more alarming every day. 1t has
become a difficult thing for men Of mode
rate means to embark in any enterprise
with reasonable prospects Of success, be-
cause they are at once forced TO fight
competition from established concerns
that can control trade through their
agents and the power Of capital. and
force weaker enterprises 70 the wall.
The account in New York paper Of
the organization Of a new company IN
that city for the purpose OF conducting
another great cattle ranch in the south
western portion Of New Mexico, shows
that the cattle raising business Of the
West is fast going out of the hands Of the
people into those Of corporations. This
company has capital of 81 SOC, 900, and
its range is sixty miles long by forty miles
wide. The States and Territories Of the
West are thickly dotted with these cor
poration ranches, and no doubt their num-
Der will increase very rapidly as the pro-
fits Of cattle raising become better known.
Farming is about the only domain of
business that has not been invaded by the
syndicates to any great extent. 1t seems
unnecessary, however, for them to enter
this field, controlling, as they do, the
markets in which the farmers buy their
supplies and sell their products. Occa-
sionally companies have attempted to
conduct immense farms, but in nearly
every instance such ventures have ended
disastrously. The farming corporations,
however. have been very successful as
landlords, and rarely do tenants prosper
under such landlords.
Railroad and steamboat lines must
necessarily be owned and operated by
strong companies, but it is an evil day for
the country when ordinary business pur-
suits are seized upon and monopolized by
gigantic corporations.
The growth of the power Interpretations
is almost entirely due to the fact that they
have been fOstered by the government
and granted extraordinary privileges and
subsidies at the expense of the people.
The fight against the system by which
they have gained this power will be long
and bitter one, but the people are bound
to win in the end. 1t would be well for
mOnOpolists to be warned in time, for if
they continue to oppose the reasonable
demands of the people and to heap griev-
GUS burdens upon them the day will come
when they will regret it. The people
may be driven to desperation and may
sweep the oppressive monopolies out of
existence. Such things have happened
in the past, and they may happen again.
The Queen has presented copies of her
book to all the English hospitals. Fewer
soporifics will be needed in those institu-
tions in the future.

THE OTsEGo LAKE SUICIDE.

A Stranger States That it Was a Put
Up-Job to Escape from Three Wives.
At Thayer's celebrated game dinner
house, at Three-Mile Point, Otsego Lake,
to-day, says a Richfeld Springs, N. Y,
special Of the 9th inst. to the World, were
a number of guests from Richfield Springs.
During a conversation with the host about
George Croker, who was supposed to
have tied boat anchor to his leg and
jumped overheard into the lake, a stran-
ger supposed to be Walter Livingston, his
companion in the boat, stated that the
supposed suicide, having three wives and
expecting a lively time in a few days,
hired the man Livingston to 90 with him
at dark to cross the lake in a boat, and
late in the evening return with the details
of the suicide. The story that he left four
letters is verified, but it is impossible to
verify the story of the suicide, as the lake
at the place pointed out by Livingston is
over 300 feet deep. Efforts have been made
to drag for the body, five boats being en-
ployed.
The story of the stranger, who refused
to give his name, that Croker has for
some time been expecting wives No. 2
and 3, and, deciding to disappear, hired
this man to tell the story. The stranger
was slightly intoxicated and gave it
away to the guests and host. Crocker
evidently did not jump into the lake as
reported, but was rowed across by Liv-
ingston and left on the opposite side of
OtsegO Lake and then escaped into the
country. Every effort will be made to
verify the story of the suicide by the Rich
field Springs and Sharon Springs author
tiles. The story is now becoming very
interesting to all the guests here and the
whole surrounding country.
