1t is quite remarkable that in the State
that gave to the modern world the great
prophet of Democracy and popular free
dom, party leaders should stray so far
from his principles, and attempt to erect
a policy for party on ideas at variance
with the fundamental doctrine.
Nevertheless, we have that mistake
stamped on the acts of the State authori-
ties.
jefferson was a States-rights Democrat
but he. as President, made clear the ne
cessitv of certain powers in the Federal
Government, and at the head of long
line of statesmen he displayed the
highest theory of the popular representa-
ton of the mate power of the people In
Government capable of exercising CEN
tralized authority that could be changed
TO other hands by the easy process OF the
next election, if the representatives ana
not formulate acts according to the &C
copied principles.
In Virginia we feel all this entirely
beyond temporary ideas of what local
sovereignty might claim in the interest
of any clique.
We feel that free thought is the soul
of Democratic government, and after the
experience of Malone bossism the people
will not stand any ringmade platform
unless it agrees with the true principles.
If it is true that there is popular
prejudice against debt settlement, it is
the duty of patriotic men to show the
falacy of fostering such prejudice by
Misrepresentation of official figures, and
of "boycotting' people who wish to ex-
ercise right under the law.
1t is not Democratic to bulldOze the
citizen by manufactured sentiment and
denounce him as an enemy of the State
because he differs in opinion with the
party managers.
1t is not Democratic to assert that the
Riddleberger act is a settlement, because
it is not, and every body who looks at the
facts clearly must know it.
1t is not Democratic to put the State in
opposition to the Federal Government,
because that experiment was tried, and
nobody wishes to try it again, in war OF
in the courts

Won MoItko's Opinion of Sheridan.

A number of military gentlemen were
discussing in New York the other day the

I'll answers He kept saying to Won Moltke
that Sherman was great general Won
Noltke would shrug and give no indorse-
iaent. The American mentioned Sheridan.
All" said Won Moltso, "there is gen
eral." The American again insisted that
Sherman was a great man in the field.
"Ah." said Won 8Ioltle, with another
sAruc, Sheridan Is q general. said he:
Did he not think Sherman was great
marcher and fighter"
"Well, tho German strategist meant to
criticise, probably, Shcrman's campaign to
tho sea. If he had ever met an enemy IN
his route he would have been annihiiated.
10 went off to tho sea on kind OF brilliant
p1lcss that no could communicate with tho
fleet there. Behind him tho rebels were
invading the north, passing almost through
Tennessee. Sherman did connect, and the
affair looks very brilliant on our pages, but
no precise, mathematical minded general
would indorso movement like that. Ger

The following order of the Secretary of
the Treasury is doubtless meant to put
out a good sum of money and help the
stringency on the money market, caused
by the reported panic of Wednesday.
He has directed the payment, without
rebate, of the interest due January I,
1887, on United States bonds of the loan
of 1907, amounting 10 about 100000,
and also the interest on the bonds issued
to the Pacific Railroad Company upon
the presentation of the coupon and in
terest checks at the Treasury in Wash

WHO Is HURT ?

The extraordinary array Of losses in
Wall street would make the ingenious
reader, who knows naught of bulls and
bears think that the country was shaken
all to pieces by financial earthquake,
and yet the World serenely remarks
From $4O,OOO,OOO to S5O,OOO,OOO in
values were apparently wiped out of ex-
istence by the decline in prices of stocks
in Wall street on Wednesday, and yet not
one cents worth of actual property was
destroyed and the country is not a whit
the poorer Those who have been specu-
lating on margins are the ones mainly af-
fected, and the greatest sufferer is the
outside public which has ventured into

Mr.. Cleveland says that the Indians
are surrounded by civilization and ought
TO be civilized to the arts of husbandry
instead of fed by the Government, which
certainly might apply to those of the red
men who enjoy the happy proximity to
q sit Lake. The five civilized tribes reach
the high-water mark of Indian attain
ment. Mr.. Atkins assures us that they
have among them men of unusual talent,
men competent to be Representatives
and Senators in Congress" If this seems
incredible, listen to the proof: The
oOuachta Valley "is cultivated by white
labor largely, with Chickasaw landlords. "
There is one farm in the valley of eight
thousand acres, another of four thousand,
and very many of several hundreds ow ned
by Indians.
The House has passed bill authoriz-
ing the Secretary of the Interior to allot
reservation lands to the Indians in
severalty, which is a great step forward
in the direction of changing and devel.
Oping the condition of the Indians.

Mr.. Dillon in carrying out the plan
of collecting rents by trustees was
arrested on Thursday at Loughrea
He struggled with Inspector Davies
for possession of the rent money
seized by the latter. 1t is rumored that
the police have been instructed to pursue
a similar course in the case of other Ma
tionalst rent collectors. The National
League leaders have decided to continue
their present tactics. Several of them
will leave Dublin for various parts Of Ire
land for the purpose of receiving rents

DAMAGES FOR NEGLIGENCE.

Judge Barclay, of the st. Louis Crimi-
nal Court in the case of a suit for dam
ages against the Telegraph Company for
not delivering a message promptly, in
structed the jury as follows:
"All that need be stated concerning
such a stipulation is that, so far as it
seems to exempt the Telegraph Company
from the consequences of its own negli-
gence it is against public policy, and en-
tirely void and of no effect. There will,
therefore, be finding in favor of the
plaintiff"
Judge Barclay will receive the popular
approval due to a good and wise judge.
