What They say Lowry OGgit TO
Have Bone

The Rail Road Supervisionists
claim that Gov Lowry should have
approved their miserable bantling of
a bill and allowed the courts to de
termine as to its constitutionality.
II Governor Lowry regarded the
bill as unconstitutional and had
nevertheless approved it, he would
have violated every official obliga
ton, and in addition to proving him
self miserable coward have stood
before his people and the world in
the attitude of self confessed per-
jurer.
II he had signed that bill we
would have had poor opinion OF
his judgment but could not have
doubted his integrity, We would
still have believed that the bill was
unconstitutional, but it would have
required positive proof to convince
Us that Bob Lowry held this belief
and yet approved it. To say nothing
of the lawlessness involved in know
ingly signing an unconstitutional
bill, there is another view to take of
it, and that is, that in vitalizing such
a measure the Governor would in
volve the State in useless and eXpen~
sive litigation with the railroads
without the hope Of success, In ad
dition to wickedly expressing the
railroads by forcing them to resort
to the courts at heavy outlay to es-
tablish truths that were patent to
the Governor before the statute re,
ceived his signature.

THE attempt of Meridian to secure
the removal of the State Capitol to

than the jest that many at first were
disposed to consider it. Her people
have had several public meetings up
on the subject, and guarantee one
hundred thousand dollars, or more if
necessary, towards defraying the ex-
penses Of erecting Capitol and other
buildings. The scheme may not be
consummated at present but there is
no telling what the future may de-
velop if the offer is kept standing.

to whom the matter was referred, has
reported in favor of the proposition,

Democratic Empartiaiity.

In the contested election case of Wood
VS. Peters from Kansas, the Elections
Committee Of the House decided in favor
of Judge Peters, the Republican incum-
beLt, by vote of eleven to one. Judge
Woods claim was based upon the fact
that the Kansas Constitution declares
the judges Of the various Courts ineligi>
BILE to elective Office during their official
terms. The House Committee in max
ing its decision took the ground that any
State law was imperative and void that
provided other qualifications for Con-
gressmen than those designated in the
Federal constitution.
The difference between Republican
and Democratic supremacy is clearly
shown in this case: Had the Republi-
cans been in control of the House, and
the political status Of the candidates
been reversed, Judge Woods would have
gotten the seat without a struggle.

HE URGES CONSERVATIVE ACTION ON
WOOL.


Gov. Hoadly, the Democratic Ex-
ecutive of Ohio, has written a strong
letter to Speaker Carlisle in reference
to the restoration of the duty on wool
to the rates that prevailed in 1882,
and urging protection for such arti-
Giles of straw material" as are strictly
farm products; contending very
properly, that while the farmers are
necessarily compelled to pay exter-
nal or internal and "protective" taxes
upon all the goods, tools, machinery,
ETC., that they buy, they are entitled
to compensation in the way of tariff
protection upon those articles which
they produce in competition with the
cheaper labor of other countries, and
that represent the investment of their
capital, energy, time and attention.
He says in this letter, among other
things
"Some little time since, Mr. Harpster,
champion wool grower, Of Ohio, asked
mo to write you, urging the restoration
of the former wool duty IN accordance
with the platform of the Ohio Democ
racy' The farmers and plant
ers OF our country pay an Increased
price caused by tariff taxation on their
utensils, their clothing, indeed on every.
thing they consume or use, while the
pr duct of their labor is measured by
Liverpool andnrds. 1t is obvious that
this will continue, in some degree. ms
long as we have any thrift at all. The
only recompense possli 10 here at the
North is found in the wool duty, and 1t
is upon the ground of exception to the
general rule that men like myself are
unwilling altogether to give up the rice
duty, sngar. duty or wool duty, while
those who produce rice, sugar and wool
are taxed for the benefit of domestic
manufacturers of sugar, plows and
o,her domestic products used by them
But it is as M exception only, l admit,
and not otherwise. In brief, it is but
justice to our wool producers that the
product of their labor and capital sh ould
receive some reasonable compensation
for the outlay they arc compelled by law
to nuke for the benefit Of manufacturers
of articles they consume. This, it is
true, may be said of all producers, but
not all producers have, like wool grow
ers, been invited by sixteen years of leg
islntion to inv ST in their business. 1t
s the sudden and rough disturbance of
values OF values Of product into which
they were invited by their coultly to in
vest-of which they have a right to
complain. Your own statement of the
methods proper for such legislation,
your own opposition to the shock of
hasty disturbance OF settled Investments

No Guardian Wanted.

Oar friend of the Aberdeen EXAMINER
seems to be of opinion that the proposed
road connecting West Point with Co.
lumbus will, if consummated, inJure the
first named and benefit the last named
place. He is mistaken. The road, If
built, would bene fit both places, the one
as much as the other. What West Point
wants is connection with the coal fields
of Alabama. This road would give it
that connection. What Columbus wants
is another outlet, and this outlet this
road would give. Neither point would
be injured while both would be benefit
ted.-[Columbus ln1ex.
Just so, neighbor, That's as good
way to state your case as any other,
and We don't suppose that West
Point is needing a guardian just at
present, and therefore we shall not
intrude. But if West Point was q
blind little town that had a good
thing and didn't know what to do
with it, we might volunteer to pilot
her ont of the wilderness.
If West Point did not know quite
as much about such things as we do,
we would tell her that her new road
is going east after coal of its own, to
divide with it's children, in the spring
And that if it does not go to the
coal fields with its main stem ii will
put out branches that will supply all
of its people with he black dia
monds But West Point would not
thank us for that information, for
she knows as much as we do about
the new rond.
We are not interested in the mat
ter of the division Of the cotton in
the territory lying between Colum.
bus and West Poiht-that is, we al re
not largely interested, and it makes
but little difference to us whether
the amount we fail to get goes to
Columbus or West Point. II West
Point commands the advan age of
two competing railroads, it will en-
able her to successfully bid against
Columbus while that city has only
one railroad and a river; but if Co.
lumbus manages in addition to pos.
sessing the river, to get on both rail
roads, she will be just a river ahead
of West Point, and will as heretofore
control most Of the cotton IN the
disputed territory and be almost as
good a cotton market as Aberdeen.
or course Aberdeen and Columbus
understand these matters, and we
would be very much astonished to
learn that West Point couldn't see
as far into q milestone as either Of
her neighbors.
We reckon as how West Point
arn't needing a nurse just at present.
Fact is she cut all her teeth long ago
in truth she was born with teeth,
and good ones too.
