A South Oaroltnn SentIneI.

As we sat on the verands, says writer in
the Detroit Free Press. dog came out of bis
lar back of the house and assembled the steps
and took long look at me before lying down
at the majors feet. He had the eye of a ii

equal to any lion you ever saw In menag-

He led the way to the smokehouse, Just then
empty of meat, and l saw two negroes safely
locked within.

the plantation and walked them up here aud
my OyerseeT locked them up. They had to

The dog uttered a low gTowl and rushed off
IN the direction OF the bayou. Next moment

see the prisoners. broke cover and started
across cotton field. He hadn't made ten

A Separate Bin for the MississiI

A Separate Bill for the Mississippi.
The st. Paul river convention was chief.
ly noticeable for the enthusiasm displayed
in favor of further appropriations for the
Improvement Of the Mississippi river. The
resolutions were very much like those
adopted by previous river conventions.
The demand for deeper water in the Mis-
sissippi is as imperative as ever. There is
probably no objection TO hrther apprOpri-
ations for that river in this section OF the
country, but there is very serious objec-
ton to making the appropriation in the
river and harbor bill.
There is no good reason to doubt that
the river and harbor bill was defeated at
the last session of Congress because it was
so large, and it was large because the
amount given to the Mississippi river was
large.
The time has come when the Mississippi
river improvement must stand upon it
own merits. 1t cannot expect that the
other river improvements will continue to
carry 1t. They cannot afford to run the
risk, year after year, of getting nothing in
order to help it along.
The river and harbor improvements in
this section Will come to 2 standstill, per-
hsps, before another appropriation is
made, because the last river and harbor
Dill failed, aud 1t failed, as we have
stated, because it couldn't carry the
amount demanded by the Mississippi
river.
Let the Mississippi be legislated tor in
a separate bill. 1t will continue bur
den on the treasury for quarter of Gen.
fury or more, and being a very great
burden, ought to be separate burden.
There is no doubt that all the water
needed by the demands Of the commerce
OF this port can be obtained very soon II
the money to carry out the Improvements
already well towards completion can BE-
obtained. There is every reason TO think
1t can be obtained, if the policy Of provid-
ing for the Mississippi river in a separate
bill 10 adopted.

The state Department continues to

civil service reform principles to the
consular system. During the Last few
days Secretary Bayard has given assurances
that several more Republicans IN the consular
service who have good records shall remain
unqlsturbed. The Washington correspondent
Of the stalwart Republican organ, the Chicago
Inter OesIas, cannot be suspected Of any par
ualty IN favor of the present administration,
and his testimony ID therefore of much sig
nlhcauce. He says that "Secretary Bayard

The Constitutional Amendment Bill.
The very large majority by whish the
unlavorable report Of the Judiciary Com
mittee Of the House, on the bill to PROVIDE
for an amendment TO the constitution
giving the Governor power To appoint
Judges and Solicitors, was adopted seems
TO indicate that the present Bystem OF APP
pointing these officers is popular with
the Legislature. 1t is natural, OF course,
that the Legislature should want 70 mold
On to al the power which 1t has, but IT
may be that the vote On the committees
report was not fair test Of what the real
sentiment OF the Legislature on this sub
ject is.
1t is a wel-known fact that there is a
widespread feeling that the constitution
ought to DE amended IN several very I'M
portant particulars, and it is possible
that the legislature thinks that it is a
much better plan to submit all the needed
amendments to the people at one time, in
stead of submitting one at the next cleo
ton, and another at the following cleo
ton, and so on until the constitution is in
satisfactory shape.
There is not much doubt that it would
be better from every point Of view to give
the appointment Of Judges and Solicitors
to the Governor. 1t would increase his
power somewhat, but there is no reason
to doubt that he would use the power
wisely. Under the present system, those
who are the best at wlre-puling and log
rolling get the offices. A mans fitness
for a judgeship or solicitorship is not in
quired into very closely. OF course the
Legislature appoints some very good
and efficient men, but it is liza
bic to appoint great many
very inefficient ones. The system OF trad
ing is likely to be carried to too great an
extent for the public good The men who
are TO be the Judges ought not to be CON-
PEELED to hang around the lobbies trying
10 catch this OF that member for the pur-
pose Of begging him for his vote. II the
Governor appointed the Judges and Solic-
itors the State wouldn't be put to any
additional expense. The present system
OF appointing them must cost the State a
good many thousands CT dollars.

Capital and Labor North and South

Capital and Labor North and South.
There is such a marked contrast be-
tween the North and the South in the re-
lations Of labor and capital that IL Is sur
prising that attention has not been called
to it,. In the south the white and colored
laborers are working in harmony. Cap
italists and wOrkingmen have no irrepres-
sible conflict that has no ending. There
is no fight between the different
classes. Throughout the North, for
years past, there has been an unceasing
war between labor and capital. Every
morning the newspapers are filed with
accounts OF lock-outs and strikes. In the
far West where Cinnamon replaced white
men, the former, a few days ago, were at
tackled, and many of them shot to death
and their homes burned. The conserve
tive South, released from the tyranny Of
carpet-baR rule. is at peace. All classes
are accorded equal political rights. There
Is no disposition on the part Of capitalists
10 take advantage Of the workingman.
What Messrs. Sherman and Foraker say in
their speeches in Ohio will have but little
effect if the people OF the North will but
form their own opinion, from the inf0rma-
ton they can obtain, Of what the real
condition OF affairs in the South Is. Where
there is so little complaint as there Is at
the South among the working classes the
relations between capital and labor must
be much more satisfactory that at the
North, where complaint Is constant and
general.

Ferdinand Ward, who at one time was
called in Wall street, the Napoleon Of
finance, but who now has quarters in Lad
low street jail, New YORK. has been giving
the courts, within the past day or Two, an
account OF his methods OF doing business.
The man who seems 10 have got the most
money from the firm OF Ward n Grant Is
William II. Warner. In one case, Ward
says. Warner invested $500. 600. and at the
end Of thirty days drew out S3860OO. he
had no money 10 start with, but borrowed
70 from friends at two per cent. month,
aud made twenty per cent. month by
investing It with Ward 4 Grant He con-
tinued 10 reinyest until he had over
81 GOO, 900 invested. That Is the story that
Ward tells. IL is understood that War.
ner got something like S3,00O,0OO out OF
the Ward a Grant firm. The thing that
the lawyers are now trying TO find out is
whether Ward and Warner weren't part
ners.
