ton of the powers of the Commission be-

that strong effort will be made at the next
session of the Georgia Legislature to make
such changes in the railroad law as will
remove its objectionable features"
And so it will be everywhere-therec can
be no such thing as regulation all on one
side. The man who has no hesitation in
declaring that he is in favor OF regulating
railroads in the interests of this, thst, or
the other class, is simply dishonest. He is

To Just regulation itself there can be no
reasonable objection, but that ceases to be
just regulation that disregards single
right of any party concerned, or that pre-
vents the owner from enjoying the legiti-

ton ignores the rights and interests of the
thing to be regulated, the act becomes one
of brute force, the deed of the strong arm,

justice into an engine of oppression and

Stockton Convention, the product of I'M

1t was out of place in a National Demo-

FOR BLAINE AND LOGAN.
A Regiment of the Hancock Legion In
dorses the Republican Ticket.


[San Francisco Post, July 1ithl
The Fourth Regiment Blue and Gray
Hancock Central Legion held an executive
meeting on Saturday evening at 25S Eighth
street, near Folsom, Colonel NJ. Murray
presiding. The Colonel called the meeting
to order, and the object of the meeting was
stated at some length. He said that the
voice of both political parties had been
heard from, and it was now in order for
the Fourth Regiment to assert its position.
He said, so far as the nominations of the
Republican parry were concerned, tney met
with his entire approval, and he predicted
an overwhelming majority for the ticket.
The Fourth Regiment, he said, when he
first organized it was composed principally
of he working classes, and he said, with
out fear of contradiction, that the platform
of the Republican party would meet all the
requirements OF the most exact working
man, and furthermore could be more re-
lied on than the Democratic platform, and,
therefore, it behooved the regiment to stand
shoulder to shoulder to secure the election
of James G. Blaine and John A. Logan in
November next. [Applause.l At the con-
clusion of his remarks he introduced The
following preamble and resolutions:
WHEREAS, James G. b zine and John A. Logan
have received the nomination of the Republican
party AT Chicago, therefore, be it
Rcsolre6, That in our judgment we deem iefor
the best interest of the country, irrespective OF
previous party affiliations, that they should re-
ceiyc the support of all true American citizens
who have the interest o. the American Govern
ment at heart. And be it further
Resolred, That we pledge ourselves to give our
entire support to the Republican nominees for
President and Vice-Pfesident.
There was considerable discussion on the
resolution previous to its adoption, some
claiming that if the resolution was adopted
it would commit the Fourth Regiment as
being a Republican organization, others
claiming that ii was neither Republican
nor Democratic, that when it was organized
it was composed principally of the mem
be's of the old Workingmens party
Finally the resolution was put and carried
The meeting then adjourned, to the call OF
the Chair, with three cheers for Blaine and
Logan.

THE Republicans of Sacramento have put
into the field full county ticket. The
campaign may therefore be said to have
fully opened. 1t now remains to do work
Let us not deceive ourselves with the idea
that we can certainly elect Mr.. Blaine.
His claim is to be contested. He can be
elected, but the only safe reliance is
upon work. No great end is attained
withoutit The way to WINS TO sustain the
whole ticket, and work for it in every county
in the State. We cannot divide our strength
or give anything, even a Constable to the
enemy. Mr.. Blaine must not be made to
carry" loads. Republicans must do that
There should be, therefore, hearty and con-
slant labor for the Republican ticket

THE Cincinnati S,ut is Dem ocratic jour-
nal. But it believes in fair play and de-
cency. Hear it Bernard Gillian is the
name of the individual who works for
Psck, and was the artist who represented
Mr. Blaine as the tattooed man. Mr.. Gil
lam is an Englishman, and has recon-
mended himself to a certain class of Ameri-
cans by assailing the character and holding
up to shame and ridicule an American
citizen of great prominence, great worth
and the champion of American clements
in America The assaults by Gillian. the
Englishman, on Blaine, the American, are
outrages that no decent man should coun-
tenance."
