ssTHE MASSES AGAINST THE

| l.
CLASSES,
There is in every great speech de-
livered by a popular publicist, some
catching trueism, some short, crisp
sentence which no sooner uttered than
it becomes indelibly fastened upon
the popular tongue. VANCE in his
great Tammany Hall speech on July
4th, gave vent to an innocent little
pleasantly which the Tammany braves
will cling to and perpetuate. "This is
a mighty thin drink::for "Tammany
will constantly reoccur at every Hall
banquet where water is present, and
will go down in its peculiar sphere of
history along side of its fit companion:
''Its long time between drinks"
Mr.. GLADSTONE in his last Liver
pool speech declared that the contest
in Great Britain was one between the
masses and the classes, and that in
such contest the masses were always
in the right. This idea at once fas-
tened itself to the public mind in
England. 1t has long been known in
England that Mr.. GLADSTONE was
Democratic in his political views, he
has shown this in Parliament by the
measures he has introduced and pass
ed, but he has never before enunciat-
ed such thoroughly Democratic ideas
as these at Liverpool, and he has new
er put the matter better or been more
happy in the choice of party cries and
watch-words than this: "The masses
against the classes"
This has been the question in Ire
land and has underlaid every political
movement in that country, and he de-
sires to correct it. Whether he sue
ceeds now or not; whether the Wings
and Conservative influence, backed
by faction of the Radicals, can de-
feat his demand of justice for Ireland,
will not prevent the question living,
and will but temporarily defeat him.
He has inaugurated a Democratic
Campaign, backed by four-fifths of
the people of Ireland, and nearly half
of those of England and Scotland,
which will be waged until victory is
won.
The first struggle is over Ireland,
but the English Democracy when it
has succeeded in giving the Irish peo-
pie what they demand and what they
are entitled to, will find that the mass
es OF England also have something to
ask under Mr.. GLADsToNE's rule the
institutions of Great Britain have
shown decided Democratic tendency.
He has extended the suffrage and
made it well nigh universal he has
formed the House of Commons on the
American representative system but
there is much yet to be done; and
now that he has been stirred up on
this question and has promised his aid
in the contest between "the masses and
the classes there is little reason to
doubt that he will sooner or later
thoroughly democratize England and
get rid of the last vestige of class
legislation that cling to it.
How many hearts in America, how
many right here in Old North Carroll
ma, warm up with the most absolute
admiration for the :Grand Old Man."
who is GoD-made statesman and
who will stand out in bold relief upon
History's pages, as the most beautiful,
the most symetrical specimen of the
true Philanthropist, the world has ever
seen.

COUPON DECISION YESTERDAY.
The United states supreme Court
Gives Judgment for the State IA
the Case Of ID. Ia. Stewart

In the United States Supreme Court
Yesterday, in the case Of Daniel h.
Stewart. plaintiff in error. rs. the Stat
of Virginia, the order Of the Circuit
Court Of the United States remanding
the case to the County Court OF Hen
rico was affirmed.
The suit was originally brought in
the County Court Of Ilenrico for
the Identification and yeritication Of
s3,s07 in coupons. 1t was Afterwards
removed 10 the Circuit Court Of the
nited States upon the ground that the
suit arose under the Constitution Of
the United States, and it was necessary
in its decision to pass upon the validity
Of the act Of the General Assembly re-
curing the school-tax to he paid in
money, which act was alleged to be I'M
constitutional.
The case was heard before Judges
Bond and Hughes on the Goth of Janu-
arv upon a motion made by Attorney
General Ayers to remand the case to
the State court. The Circuit Court Of
the nited States sustained the motion
and remanded the case.
Stewart then prosecuted writ OF
error to the Supreme Court of the
United States to reverse the judgment
Of the Circuit Court.
This being a writ Of error to deter
mine the jurisdiction Of the Circuit
Court under the act of March 3, 1915,
was, under rule Of the Supreme Court,
advanced and heard upon printed argu-
meDts. The case was submitted on
Monday the 9Th instant.
William l.. Royal, Sands Il Bryan.
and A. B. GuigOn represented Stewart,
and Attorney-General Ayers appeared
for the State Of Virginia.
The Attorney-General made the
points-frst, that the validity OF the
act requiring the school-tax to be paid
in money was not involved in the de-
cision Of the case : second, that il 1t was,
the suit was against the State Of Viz
ginia, which she had authorized TO be
brought against her in her own courts;
that she had not submitted herself to
the Jurisdiction OF the Federal courts.
and they had no right to try such cases.

tor OF North Carolina.
lBy telegraph To the Dispatch.l

10y ttttEIdHu W kbt birpHttbsi
RALEIGH, n. c., April l2.-Suits
were begun here to-day against the
Governor and Auditor Of the State with
the object Of forcing the levying and
collection Of special taxes imposed in
the several acts Of the North Carolina
Assembly Of lsGs-'G9, under which
the special-tax bonds Of North Caro-
lima were issued. These bonds sggre-
gate ell 900, 900 and the special taxes
imposed were sufficient to meet the an
nual interest. Subsequent legislation for
bade the State officers to collect these
special taxes, and an amendment to the
Constitution foIbids the Legislature to
pay anything on interest or principal
without submitting the matter to the
people. Before this various suits have
been brought in the Federal courts with
out avail to enforce the rights Of the
Auditor. One suit has just been in
stituted in the State Court by Morton.
Bliss & Co., Of New York,
and another in the United States
Circuit Court by A. ii. Temple,
resident Of this city. The
plaintiffs counsel are f. l.. Andres US,
Of New York 5. F. Phillips, OF Wash
iDgton, n. c.. and Gray q Stamps, OF
Raleigh. Ex-Judge Strong, Of the Su-
pIeme Court Of the United States, has
given a written opinion favorable to the
plaintiffs. The plaintiffs rely upon the
act of Congress passed March 3, l'75,
extending the jurisdiction Of the Federal
courts to all cases arising under the
Constitution between the citizens of a
State and the State itself to force the
officers Of the State to collect special
taxes without regard TO hostile legisla-
