Can the Policy BE Carried Oute

Can the Policy BE Carried Ont?
The Lake Shore seems to be decidedly aggres-
sive in its movement to abolish the paying Of
commissions. They commence with their own
agents, and have issued the following order:
Ticket Agent L. S. & NJ S. Railway:
Dear Sir-Commencing Jan. j, 1886, you will
report to the auditor all commissions paid to you
by foreign lines. For tickets sold after that
date you will remit to the local treasurer the
amount of same with your passenger cash."
From this it seems they will continue to re-
ceive their commissions on most roads until the
Western roads take concerted action to abolish
them. Right here there seems to be a disagree
ment as to recent trunk line PRONUNCIATION, call
ing for the adjustment of ticket commissions
on and after JAM l. The Cleveland Leader says:
SIT is perfectly apparent that on business to the
East in which the trunk lines are parties. COM
missions will no longer be paid, but
lines that their Western connections or
combinations should discontinue the
commissions to Western and Southern points,
The Lake Shore evidently thinks So AMI intends
to thoroughly extirpate the system, as it has
directed its agents hereafter to turn all their
commissions over to the treasury. But as stated
above, other Western connections of the trunk
lines do not coincide with this view." The com
| missions of the agents have been as much, and
in some cases a good deal more than their sal
aries. The success of this move is, in the opin-
ion of passenger agents, doubtful. Some roads
are obliged to pay commissions to secure the
business while others pay them to hold their
business. In order to enlist the services of the
agents the commissions can be paid them in q
quiet way, and in such manner that the Lake
Shore will know nothing of them. 1t remains
to be seen how the order will work"

AN ERA OF GRAND OLD MEN.

If Sidonia had belonged to the
second instead of the first half of the
current century, it is probable that
the celebrated eluogy on youth with
which he favored Coningsby during
their memorable interview at the
country inn would have been con-
siderably modified, if not altogether
suppressed. He would have at
least perceived that the era of
'.Wondrous Boys" had gone by,
and that the era of "Grand Old
Men" had set in. 1t is true, he
would have said, that Napoleon
conquered Italy at five and twenty.
But Mollke conquered France at
sixty-nine. Byron and Shelley no
doubt died before they were forty.
But Tennyson and Browning are
piping away as tluently as ever at
threescore years and ten, while the
poetic ardor of Victor Hugo was un-
cooled and undimmed at fourscore
years. If Richelieu became Secre-
tary of State at thirty-one, Theirs
became President of the Republic at
eighty. If Innocent Ill was the des-
pot of Christendom at thirty-seven,
the ponIiicate of Plus TX almost
equal "the years of Peter" when his
infalibility was proclaimed by the
Church. If Bolingbroke and Pitts
were Ministers before other men
leave off cricket, Palmerston and
Beaconslield were at the height of
their power as Premiers when other
men begin to think of leaving off
whist. AT the present moment the
destinies of Germany, France and
England are in the hands of states
men, all of whom have exceeded the
limits assigned by the Psalmist to
the lives of the sons of Adam. The
I German Chancellor is seventy-two,
the French President is eighty-one
and the English Prime Minister is
seventy-seven; and although it may
he true that "the history of heroes
is the history of youth, +" it is, at any
rate, certain that Europe is now at
the feet of age,-U London World.

OFFICIAL CHANGES.

This mornings .IdcerIiser con-
tains an official notification of the
resignation of Colonel G.. II. Judd
of the positions of Chamberlain to
the Royal Household and Commits
sioner of Crown Lands and Land
Agent. and the appointment of Col
onel Curtis p. Iaukea to the vacan-
cies. Colonel Judd had long term
of service. Notwithstanding deter
mined and persistent endeavors from
the outside to dislodge him. The
holder of these offices has consider
able to do with the public. AS
Commissioner and Agent of Crown
Lands. he has the leasing of those
lands, collecting of rents, &c. AS
His Majesty's Chamberlain he is
brought into contact with foreign
representatives, visitors from abroad,
and a considerable portion of the
general public at Royal Receptions,
&C. From which it is patent that Il
gentlemanly bearing and suavity of
manner are prime requisites in the
incumbent of the office. These are
well known to be prominent traits of
the gentleman just appointed, and
for that reason the appointment is
favorably commented on by the
public. A better selection could
scarcely have been made. If ap-
pointments to the public service
were marked by the same regard for
fitness in the appointees, the public
would have occasion to rejoice.

BRITISH PROGRESS.

The British Liberals address is
rather an encouraging document.
They do not conceal their chargin
over the losses they met with at the
last election, but they console them
selves with the reflection that all re-
forms take time to permeate the
public mind. They now call for a
general consultation of Liberals to
consider the eXpediency of extend
ing the demand for home rule to
every section of the kingdom-to
England, Scotland and Wales, as
well as ireland. This is step in
the right direction.
In view of the fact that the
British voting population was nearly
doubled by the Act of lSS4--that
something like two million people
were suddenly gifted with the fran
chise without previous training or
education, we ought not TO be sur
plised at the victory of the Tory
Unionists last month. Politics are
like shoemaking-no man is born
with knowledge of either. 1t is
no wonder at all that the masses of
British people were deluded by the
specious lies spread broadcast by
Salisbury and Churchill. They
knew no better. We know how it is
ourselves. There is hardly a Presi-
dental election in this country at
which important constituencies are
not swayed by demagogical appeals
at which sensible men laugh. 1t
was so in England. The Tories re-
presented Gladstone as conspring
for the destruction of the British
empire. Every Tory of ordinary
education knew that the charge was
infamously false, and that, whatever
few extreme Irish leaders might
dream, there was no prospect of the
severance of Ireland from the rest
of the kingdom. But the new
British voters were too ignorant to
understand this, just as commune
ties in this country are too ignorant
to see through the appeals to pre-
judice and selfishness by which po-
litical leaders retain their control.
SO Gladstone was beaten.
The Liberal plan for movement
for general federation, to embrace
England, Scotland and Wales, as
well as Ireland, is step in the di-
rection Of durable settlement
OF the question. If care
be taken to educate the masses on
the advantage of a distribution of a
power, and of dividing local from
imperial Government, the next
general election. which cannot be far
distant, may reverse the verdict of
the election of 1885, S. f.

THAT ELAUNTINC LlE,n

The danger of having matter in
type floating around newspaper
office, when not intended for publi-
cation, was never more forcibly Illus
trated than in the case of the poem,
Tear Down that Haunting Lie"
printed in the 1rib,He just before
the war. 1t attracted universal at
tention and animadversion. A well
known Abolitionist who had written
the poem had asked that it he put
in type, and that few slips be
struck off for his personal use. This
was done, but the type was not dis
tributed, and was left on galley
among other articles.
\ few nights afterward as Sam
Walters, the night foreman, was
making up the first side of the
paper, he found himself destitute of
matter to fill little space in the
form. He measured the space with
n string and then searched the galleys
for an article to fill it. He found
the poem, ",rear Down that Flaunt-
ing Lie" That Haunting lie was
the stars and stripes, which the
author cursed, because it tlosted
over a land where human slavery
was tolerated. The poem exactly
filed the space desired, and the
foreman slapped it into the form.
About 10000 papers were printed
and distributed before the mistake
was discovered. The page of type
was then taken from the press and
the poem lifted out; but it was n
long time before the Tribune re-
covered from the shock that its un-
whiting publication produced.- The

TEN THOUSAND LIES"

I he Rev. Stephen Gladstone has
written as follows to correspondent
who had pointed out an extract in a
Tory newspaper, contributed by "a
London correspondent alleging
unhappy differences of opinion and
feeling in Mr.. Gladstone's family
circle:-
HAwARDEN REoToRY, July II, 1886.
DEAR SIR,--I thank you for your
letter. 1t is n hopeless task to ex-
pect to be able to contradict the
ten thousand lies circulated by
Tories about my father. In the
present instance, every single state
ment by ''a London correspondent"
in the extract you send me is false.
That is the only answer l have to
make. Friends may rest assured, in
spite of present reverses, that Mr..
Gladstone has no more doubt that
Ireland's aspirations for self-govern-
ment will eventually be conceded to
her than that the sun which is hid
den to-day will soon shine out splen-
didly again; and for my part /
firmly believe that England, when
better informed, will yet, "unless the
Conservatives change their minds, "
wish to give him and his brave and
true colleague the commission to
carry out great measure of Irish
self-government, which will be but
an act of wisdom, justice and good
will. Yours very faithfully,
STEPHEN T.. GLADSTONE.

CIVILIZATION AND TIE PARCEL POST.

The parcel post has now been eX-
tended to the three most important
Australian Colonies, the Canada
service will begin on the lst of
August, the remainder of Austria
lasia will probably soon follow suit,
and when Italy, Spain, and France
signify their adhesion, large part
of the civilized world will be in
cluded within this magic circle of
convenience. If some intelligent
person who lived hundred and
fifty, or even hundred years ago,
could be resuscitated, we think he
would be more astonished by such
an institution as the Parcel Post
than by express trains, ''grey-
hounds of the Atlantic" telegraphs,
or telephones. 1t is quite true that
the Parcel Post could never have
come into existence without these
inventions, but then they were not
at least in theory-novelties to
our forefathers, because the posi-
bility of swift methods of commune
cation has been Il human aspiration
from time out of mind. But the
establishment, of the Parcel Post
presupposes Il condition of order
and civilization over a large Il large
portion of the earth's surface which
would have seemed incredible to the
man of 1886, and even more so to
the man of. 1876. A hundred and
fifty years ago Christendom was still
little more than an oasis in vast
and imperfectly explored wilder
ness of barbarism. The barbarism
has now been replaced by civiliza-
ton to such surprising extent that
to places which in Swiit's days were
so little known that they might be
the abodes of dwarfs or giants, a
parcel weighing eleven pounds will
next month be securely carried by
Her Majesty's Post Office for a fee
of less than a sovereign. All this is
convenient, but it is destructive of
romance. A hundred years hence
there will be no really wild places
only few artiticially-preserved wilder
ness, such as the Cumberland Lake
district and Yellowstone Park; the
only surviving lions, tigers, and
Rhinoceroses will be inYmenageries ;
and there will be a steep-grade rail
way to the top of every mountain
in the world. = fGraphic.

REPORTS.
Rep. Richardson reported the en-
grossment of an act to amend section
5 of the bill relating to
Rep. Keau moved that all bills
relating to permanent settlements be
taken from the table and placed on
the order of the day. Carried.
ORDER OF THE DAY.
Third reading of an act to con-
tinue the subsidy heretofore granted
for mail communication between the
Hawaiian Islands and the United
States of America.
Rep. Keau moved the bill pass.
Rep. Kaunamano moved to strike
out the clause, That the freight on
each bunch of bananas shall not
exceed fifty cents He considered
that this house had no right to
dictate crates of freight TO the
Steamboat Company, giving his rea-
sons therefor.
Rep. Keau expressed his surprise
at the motion of the previous speaker.
They had worked together in the
shipment of bananas formerly, and
had no differences. Hence, he did
not understand this change of opinion.
The Assembly had made grants for
the steamboat company, and it was
only fair that something should now
be done for the small land owners.
If he (the speaker) had his way, he
would not vote one cent for the com
pany, as he considered they re-
ceived too much at the present rates.
Noble Cleghorn SAID he rose 10
correct the hon. member for Hama
kua with regard to statements he
he had made on the subject OF
freight. 1t was not true that the
bananas were well cared for. 1t i;

10 him that there should exist II de
sire to reduce the subsidy to th'
company.
Rep. Keau moved that section
be amended so as to read rs ,250,'
instead of 'Sl 300"
Rep. Thurston considered that ;
motion of that nature was out o.
order. To see members chang,
their votes, as they have done, h'
considered was evidence of undue

A DEMOCRATIC DIsPUTE.-The Executive
Committee of the Democratic State Com
mittee met this afternoon for the purpose
of hearing an appeal by Democratic Clubs
90 and &c of the Twenty-fourth Senatorial
District from the action of the County
Committee in issuing charters to those
clubs. A faction war prevails in the
Twenty-fourth District, and during the late
organization of the clubs one faction carried
five out of the six, including Nos. % and %.
The defeated party appealed to the County
Committee from the result, alleging fraud,
bulldozing and roll-stuffing. The COM
mittee appointed a subcommittee of in
quiry, which reported that the charges were
unfounded, and upon that report charters
were ordered issued to the clubs. From
this order the appeal is taken, as allowed
by the plan of the Committee of Fifty, I'M
der which the clubs are organized. The
Executive Committee was presided over by
w. D. English The only persons admitted
to the hearing were three from the County
Committee and three from each of the fac
tons. The victorious factions allege that
the appellants have lost their rights by not
complying with the laws of the party, one
of which is that they shall not belong 10
any secret organization. 1t is alleged that
since their defeat the beaten faction has or
ganized secret Clubs. Il. Bulletin.
