R3rThe above novelties are identical to
those being of. red to-day in New York. Being
bought OF the same manufacturers, and at the
same prices, why should not the Palais Royal
prices be as low as the New York houses?
As matter of fact, prices are lower, and the
reason for 1t is-we do STRICTLY CASH
BUSINESS, and can afford to sell at a small
profit. Houses that do credit business can
not do so and succeed.

Labor in the North and South.

The pubic man who passiOna,ely pOT
trays in stump speeches the imaginary
danger that the ''seTvile'' labor of the
South will iujuriously compete with the
free labor of the North, beJTays bis inca
pacity to patiently consider, much less
TO intelligently discuss, questions of labor
and wages. In this vast county there
Will be remuneraJive employment for
labor for long time to come if 1T be not
devoted to wasteful aud unproductive
pursuits. To apply the term "servile"
to any portion of the woTkiugmen OF the
United States is a gross perversion of
language. With he freedom of lOcOmO-
ton that exists, no portion of the
country's labor, no matter how humble,
is condemned to a seTfdom of the soil, -
If the labOrer In the rice OF cotton fields

ditiOn, he can go elsewhere TO better it /;
but the southern feld-hand should not

quently differ much in the same country.
Farm labor is better paid IN some cOun
ties OF England than in others. There
is "A wide range in the rates of wages IN
different paris of Germany. Custom,
methods of labor, cost of living, Qnclu-
ding rents,) and skill in production have
much to do with it. In Chicago the
nominal rate of wages is from Is to 20
per cent. higher in most mechanical
occupations than it is in Philadelphia.
But there Is not rush of workingmen
from Philadelphia TO Chicago. If there
were there would be a temporary decline
in the rate of wages at one point and a
corresponding rise at the other, but the
balance would soon be cestOred. A stout
Georgia negro might earn somewhat
better wages by cutting lumber in the
pine forests of Maine than he now does
but climate and prolific soil that yields
cheap living will keep him where be IS
unless too great a pressure should quick
en- him into lucom0tion.
Some years ago an exodus from North
Carolina TO Kansas was stimulated by
the activity of railroad and land agents.
The effect of this partial movement of
colored people was to severely deTange
production in that portion of the South
whence it was made, but the void was
soon filed. Sectional demagOgues and
alaTmists might possibly excite general
exodus of the cOlored people of the South
and such an upheaval would be fTaught
with great disaster TO the industrial and
social interests of the whole county,

An Important Decision.

The Supreme Court of the United
States has rendered a decision which sets
a. rest he question OF States regulating
inter State transportation. In the pres
ent Case the ) ate OF Illinois attempted
10 regulate the rates OF the WaSaSh, ST.
Louis q Pacific Railroad Company. an
Interference which the company resent
ed. The charge was that the road
charged one shipper fifteen cents per
hundred for carrying goods to New
7 oTk and another shipper only two cents
tor the Same class OF goods, although
the latter was eighty-six miles further
away from New York. The law OF H.
linoIs pTOhibiJs discrimination IN rates
over the railroads of the State. The
main points of the decision are contained
In this extract:
when it is attempted to apply to trans
pOTtatiOn through an entire series of States
a principle of this kind, and each one of the
States, or hsIf dozen of States, shall attempt
to establish its own rates of transportation,

in rates, or to permit IT, the deleteriOus iuflu-
ence upon the freedom OF commerce among
the States and upon the nsportation of
goods through thUse States cannot be oyer
estimated. That this species of regulation
IS one which must be, If established at all, of
a general and national character, and cannot

what has been already said. And if it be
regulation of commerce, as we think we have
demonstrated it IS, and as the Illinois Court
comedies it to be- it must be of that national
character, and the regulation can only appro

which demand that il should be done by tue

commerce clause of the Constitution
Justice Bradley delivered dissenting
OPTION, In which the Chief Justice and
Justice Gray concurred, 1t will be seen
that the right OF Congress to regulate
Interstate traffic is conceded, ut, mas
much as it has not done so, States do
not lose their power to regulate the
charges of their own railroads within
their own territory simply because the
freight has been brought from a point
beyond the State borders. This decision

The BulldOzed.

In his admirable speech aC Phladel-
phia, Gov. Hill touched a very weak
point in the Republican argument.
During the progress of the Maine Pill
grim through Pennsylvania, his heart
has bled continually, bleeding for the
supposed wrongs, outrages and crimes
against the suffrage which are perpetra-
ted, according to the Republicans, in
the Southern States, and for which no
other evidence is sought OF admitted
than the fact that those States are not
Republican. Brother Blaine's argument
Is substantially this:
q. There are negroes in the Southern
States
b. Those States ought TO be Republi-
Gao.
G. Consequently the negroes are bull
doZed.
This is not logical, but it IS funny
Governor Hill peTtinently inquiries why
Mr. Blaine did not stop IN Rhode Island
on his way TO Pennsylvania, and ask his
friends there why they do not strike
from the Jaws and Constitution of that
little, narrow, bigoted State the require
ment that before any foreign-bOrn ciJi-
zen can vote he must have a property
qualification. -
Gov. Hill might have added that in
the manufacturing States of New Eng
land bulldoZing has become fine art,
and WOrkmen are expected to vote as
! they arc ordered, or lose their Jobs
But these facts do not cause the Re
publicans the slightest perturbation, nor
do they even feel that there is any incon-
sistency in the Republican position. In
I Republican State they think that dis
1 elimination against foreigners is all
right. AS long as bulldOZIng increases
the Republican vote 10 the North, it is
a high, Iaudable and holy procedure,
which allows ''the better elemenl'' to
assert its superiority. And as long as
the R-puhlicaus remain in 4 minority
in ~" South, so long will the assump
tion has there is buldozing there be an
article of faith among Republicans

statement of one of their ngmbeT, the

she should have no care or worry about

son to find bargains in the way Of tea and
sugar, and conyulsed the tradesmen by his
elegant ignorance. One day two ladies, who
were making some purchases In O grocer's
