PUBLIC OPINION.

BosToN Advertiser: IL is not unlikely
that Canada viii be induced by the
prominence given ID industrial arbi-
traton in this country TO take early
ktsps to establish courts of concilis-
ton" for the benefit OF her producers,
but Mesa lhusetts will probably take
the lead in passing measure of the
kind.
CHICAGO Times: The farmers
movement in Nebraska, under the
leadership Of the Farmers Alliance,
has caused quite revolution in po-
litical affairs, and made the anti.mo.
nopoly railroad issue prominent
enough to compel both Republican
and Democratic conventions to
pledge themselves in favor OF rem
edial legislation.
NEw YORK Sun, 1t is said that
John Roach is about 10 90 abroad to
study shir-building, where they build
ships that hold together until they
get them of the stocks. We suggest
that John exchange points with the
efiete monarchies. They can teach
him how to build iron-c'ad ships,
aud he can instruct them, in easy
Ollendortl stages, how to build IRON
clad bills.
Philadelphia Times: Mr.. Morrison's
new tariff pill, which was introduced
in the House yesterday, will, il is
claimed by its author, reduce the rev.
enues from customs, on the ba.is of
last years collettlans, about twenty
millions; One halt OF this reduction
is made on the single article OF sugar,
and will prove the most popular item
OF the bill, as sugar is an article OF con-
sumption that goes to everybody's
table.
BosroN Advertiser: Experience OF
the New. Hampshire insurance law
does not bear out the predictions of
the underwriters that incendiarism
would increase under it's operatio ..
On the contrary, the number OF fires
has decreased 90 per cent. The in.
ference Is that the difficulty OF getting

withdrew from the State has forced

Destroying LAND MONOPOLY.

HI NV ANS hAND NAOsNOA W.
Contrary to what was expected, but
probably in Difference to the wishes OF
the Irish people, Mr.. Gladstone has
decided to take up the question OF
home rule before entering upon that
OF land. The fac. is the land question
is not confined to Ireland. England,
Scotland and Wales, as well as Ireland,
are borne down by the vicious pressure
o! landlordism, and what the govern
ment does TO relieve one country
will be claimed by the others. This
largely extends "the land quettion" as
a matter Of governmental policy,
which may be one Of the reasons for its
postponement. These lands are mostly
in few hands and often entailed. Ed
tail must DO established 20 that every
owner Of it may have the liberty TO
sell at his pleasure. The transfer OF
land in England is now banpered by
all kinds Of restrictions, relics of feu-
DIAL times. II is necesf AIRY that land
should be as capable Of being sold and
transferred as other property. But
more than this is contemplated. 1t Is
proposed ID establish a sort OF local
court or commission TO deal wi h TIE
subject. This count viii be elected by
the Taxpayers, and the election will BE-
40 careIully guarded asst rat Of members
of Parliament. These local bodies
will have power TO acquire laud by
compulsory process for public pur-
poses, including dwellings for laborers
and artisans and small holdings. The
landlords will be required to sell the
necessary land at fair valuation,
without power TO refuse. The land
will be taken from them and fair
price paid for it, and the land 80 &C
quired will be placed within the reach
Of small farmers on terms Of payment
suited to their condition. The great
evil OF overgrown land monopoly can
hardly be overthrown by putting
some Iortlon OF ground into other
hands. That evil is that the monop.
oily OF land endows itI owner with a
kind OF sovereignty. He can, and
too oitsn does, Cypress his tenantry.
He has made them in past times vote,
not as they pleased but as he dictated,
Shave | not right TO do as please
with my own" a,ked the Duke
OF Newcastle fifty years ago
when he evicted a considerable
number OF his tenants at Newark,
Nottinghamshire, because, against
his command, they voted for Parlia-
mentary reform. This kind OF "my
own" 30 unjust and mischievous,
has TO be done away with. Clear OF
the faint OF Socialism, the English
people have grasped the important
principle that lies at the root OF
Mr.. Georges teachings, and they will
require not only that few men shall
gain small farms, but that a system be
introduced that will gradually lead to
the diffusion Of property in land, and
TO the destruction Of large estates.
This is mattar Of serious interest
among ourselves, for time viii! come,
and before long, when in this country
we shall have to break up by law Il e
evil OF land monopoly.

THE HON. HORACE II. LURTON

A wise and incorruptible judiciar y
is the sanctuary TO which the people
confidently fee for protection. This
is especially go OF the Supreme Count
Of the STATE. Men are frequently
elected judges OF the inferior courts
whose decisions are mockery OF law
and justice. But those who suffer by
incompetent or vensl judges are con-
soled by the reflection that there is a
higher tribunal to right the wrong. 1t
is not, therefore, surprising that the
people of Tennessee, every eight years,
manifest such deep and profound
interest in the election OF their Su-
preme Coult judges. The regular
election OF these high officials occurs
this year, and from one end OF the
State to the other the people are
united in the demand for the nomi.
nation OF the best men. 1t is
a relief to know that some Of the
ablest lawyers OF the Site
are not only willing to serve the peo-
pie II elected, but are avowed candi-
dates for nomination. The Hon.
Horace II, Lurton OF Olarksville has
announced himself candidate. We
understand he is in the city, and in
tends TO canvass the State. He is wise
in doing so, for the people want to see
and know the men who aspire to high
judicial positions, and are rot in
clined to elevats those too dignifed to
ask for place, and who will
not serve the people unless dragged
upon the bench. Judge Luton will
make favorable impression wherever
he goes. His natural abilities are
great aud his disciplined training in
the law have given him eminence In
the profession and established his
reputation as one Of the proioundest
and ablest lawyers in the Stats, and
his decisions on complex ques-
tions Of law would place him
among the foremost iurists Of
the State. Thoroughly grounded
in the principles of oommon law, and
master Of the great fundamental prin-
ciples Of Jurisprudence, his accom-
plished mind would easily detect the
sophistries and technicaiitles of pro.
fessional learning, grasp and make
clear the rights and equities, 1t is said
Of Judge Lurton by the ablest lawyers
Of the State familiar with his practice,
that be has an intuitve insight into
the heart OF a case. Such natural
legal mind, combined with his we'll.
known honesty OF purpose Is serve
the ends of justice and protect the in
tsrests committed to his charge, pre-
eminently ct him for judicial office.
He loves the law, to analyzs il, to un-
ravel it, intricacies aud expouud its
principles; his mind is rapid and cleal
in its conceptions, comprehensive in
It's reach, and his opinions as one oil
the judges Of the Supreme Court OF
the State would be models of wisdom
justice and law. htaI

Making Bags.

Hardly half century has passed
since the first bag was turned out in.
New York in q sail-makers loft near the
Battery. The man who first made a
business of bag-making carries on bus
mess at the old stand, and his is one of
the New York houses that have refused
to join the loan pool and continues to
do business Independently. The ex-
portation Of American grain, that grew
up suddenly, and the sewing machine
gave an enormous impetus to the busi-
ness. Machines that turn out hum
dred bags an hour, sewn ard finished,
have replaced the slow and laborious
work Of thanksgiving of the early days.
Now. over hundred kinds of sacks are
made, from the coarsest gunny-bag for
cocoaDuts and cotton seed to the nobby
shatuckett corn bag that makes service
able every day wear for Brazilian plain
tiers at the end of its journey. Thir-
teen kinds OF sacks are made to hold
coffee alone. But all of these are sold.
Scarcely any Of them come back. 1t is
a curious fact, for instance, that of the
two or three millions Of coffee sacks of
certain make made and sent out annu.
ally from New York never one was
known to return. Every bag of coffee
that arrives i'm this port is resacked be-
fore il is started on its land journey
South or West. Another sack is simply
drawn over il, and thus secured against
catching cold In our variable climate,
the coffee is shipped by rail. These
sacks are peculiar and easily Unidentified,
did any return by chance; but none
ever do. "ln forty years., said the
oldest bag-maker, 81 never saw one
come" What becomes of them no one
seems to know. Doubtless in some odd
corner they serve useful purpose in
after-life of which our leaders little
dream.-Nep York Express.

Where TOrnadOes Begin.

The most remarkable and interesting
feature of the development of tornadoes
is the fact that they nearly always form
southeast of moving center of low
pressure, aud their tracks, scattered
here and there, conform closely to the
progressive direction of the main storm.
For example, on February 10, 1884,
forty-four tornadoes occurred in Geor-
gia, Alabama and South Carolina, but
principally in Georgia and Alabama.
They developed at distance of from
FIVE hundred TO two thousand miles
from a storm center that moved across
the northern extremity of the Rocky
mountains in Montana, thence south
easterly through DAKOTA, Minnesota
and Wisconsin TO Northern Illinois and
Indiana, northward through Michigan
across Lake Huron, disappearing north
of Quebec. This sudden sharp turn of
the storm-center southwark Into Illi-
nois aud Indiana seems to have a rela-
ton to the unprecedently large num-
Der Of tornadoes that develop not far
from the South Atlantic coast, extend-
ing inland as far as Southern Illinois
and Indiana. This southwark lunge of
mass of cold, moist air seems to have
caused the abnormal conditions of tenn
perature and dew-point, and the high
winds necessary 10 cause the most tre-
mendous exhibition OF destructive tor
nado-power ever recorded by the signal
service. This invariable location south.
east of the storm-center is one Of the
main peeuliarities of tornado develop
ment upon which the predictions de-
