THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.

The recent conference between the repre-
sentatives of the railroads and the Rail
road Commission resulted in the adoption
in this State, with some exceptions, of uni
form classification of the freight rates of the
Southern Railway and Steamship Associa-
tion. The uniform classification is that
used by all railroads in the South and South
west, and which was adopted by the repre-
sentatives of such roads in convention in
Atlanta, in order to facilitate the inter-
change of business between roads, to avoid
the multiplication, and thus prevent errors
in freight charges. AS the matter has stood
heretofore, the roads in this State had to
use two different classifcations- on
through business and one on local business.
The average railroad agent often used the
one for the other, and thereby errors fire.
quently occurred. The classification of the
Southern Railway and Steamship Associa-
tion was adopted by the Commission, with
exceptions, and the present Commission
will be withdrawn about the 18th instant,
when the uniform classification will 60 into
immediate effect.

MASSACHUSETTS, POLITICS.

The Massachusetts Republican State Con-
vention, in session at Springfield last week,
nominated State ticket headed by Cover
nor Robertson for reelection. Senator
Hoar, who was made permanent chairman,
made long address on the issues Of the
day, taking practically the same view of
Southern questions as Senator Sherman.
He denied that the Republican party, or
any person to whom it had given its conf
dence, had any hatred for the South, or
would seek to keep alive any sectional feel
ing, and stated that the better element at
the South is already beginning to realize
this. He said: "We have been touched by
the sympathy expressed for the old warrior
by the men whom he conquered, but is it too
much to say that the hand which has clasp
ed that of the dying Grant has given and
has taken too much honor, even thereafter,
to stuff ballot box or shoot a voter?" In
speaking of the Administration of President
Cleveland, Senator Hoar, said: II would
speak with all personal kindness of the Pres
ident. like some things his Administra-
ton has done, especially its irmness and
courage in protecting the rights Of the In
dians. In the name Of the whole manhood
of the country would call upon the Execu-
tive to suppress and punish with the strong
est hand the outrages committed and threat
ened against the inoffensive Chinese, and
assure him that in such case he will have
the fullest support of the people of Massa-
chusetts, without distinction of party"

THE OHIO CANVASS.

The news from Ohio is unfavorable to the
success of the bloody shirt issue as means
of firing the Republican heart and increas-
ing the Republica vote. 1t is now admitted
by Republicans thatSherman regrets having
raised that issue in the first speech of the
canvass. The mercantile interests of Gin
cinnati are affected by the continued efforts
of the politicians to keep up sectional feel
ing, and the merchants of that city are do
ing all they can to counteract the effects OF
Republican Misrepresentation. They feel
that the prosperity of the West is dependent
to some extent upon the prosperity of the
South, and want no more humbuggery
about the negro question in the Southern
States

THE SENTENCE IMPOSED UPON MOSES
Franklin J.. Moses, Ex-Governor of South
Carolina, was placed at the bar in the Bos-
ton Superior Court, last Thursday, to re-
ceive his sentence for swindling ex-Mayor
Cobb, Fred Ames and others. His counsel
reviewed his career and urged that he had
already been sufficiently punished, having
lust served year in the House OF Correc-
tion for a similar offence. It was urged
that the offences were committed under cir
cumstances ofextreme want and they could
not be called fragrant violations. The de-
fendant was man of extreme nervous Or
ganization and his imprisonment has told
upon him. He was so reduced physically
that further imprisonment would probably
prevent him from ever performing any SER
vice. If the case could be continued for
three months there were prominent gentle
men in Boston who would procure him a
situation.
Judge Aldrich said it would almost seem
that the court was listening to an eulogy
upon man of high and exalted character
who had fallen into misfortune. His ad-
vantages made his crime so much the great
er, and it would not be justice to let men
like Mr.. Moses 60 free and send to prison
young men who never had any advant-
ages, either social or educational. He did
not agree that this was petty offence. No
sensitive man would be engaged in such
business, and it was time it was stopped.
Mr.. Goodrich urged that Moses be sent to
the Reformatory Prison, but Judge AL
drich said he did not think the Reforma-
tory Prison was made for graduates OF col
leges and Governors. He felt required by
every sense of propriety and duty to treat it
as a serious offence. The Judge then i'm
posed a sentence of three years in the State
Prison.
Moses seemed dazed by the sentence, and
he was led away by an officer like a little
child.
