Comment Of Now York p.per,.

New YoRK, June 2s.-The World says:
The revival of the legend that Mr.. Harrison
was Know-Nothing thirty-five years ago
is about as nonsensical as the repetition Of
the story that Mr.. Thurman's wife sent Q
few knick- -knacks TO Confederate prisoners
in Camp Chase in 1868. What has all this
70 do with the tariff issuei
The Times: Do the Republican leaders
believe that sfter a quarter of a century OF
power with moderate modern policy they
can regain ascendency by going back to the
middle ages for their principles and their
rhtthods2
! The Sun: 1t is interesting to observe the
decent language OF the people at large
about the candidate nominated at Chicago.
The Republican papers do not glorify him
as man of unparalleled greatness and
goodness. and the Democratic papers do
hot describe him as brainless rascal. This
b cheering. Let all men and every party
hold their reason and good humor in the
ascendant through the campaign.
The Tribune: The campaign will be one
of argument. Voters will be asked to con-
slider their interests and the interest of the
country, and to vote for American rather
than British interests. If the Democrats
suppose that it is to be one-sided fight, let
them nurse their delusion as long as they
can.
The Herald: Democrats, therefore
should follow the Republican example and
scatter all over the country facts, statistics,
arguments, the strong speeches that have
been delivered in Congress, on platforms,
in churches, and do Il by the ton, so that
an intelligent people may get an intelli-
gent idea OF the situation and cast an intel
hgent ballot. That is very important
work and the sooner il is done the mors
decided will be the result.

Developments In the Chicago Gas Trus

Developments In the Chicago Gas Trust.
CHICAGO, June Ss.---Although the quo
warranto proceedings of the Attorney Cen
eral of Illinois against the Gas Trust are
hung up until January next, it has become
patent that the trial of the Miller case will
bring out the points and practically decide
the illegality Of the Gas Trust as an organi-
cation. When Judge Horton decided that
Columbus R. Cummings, Sidney A. Kent,
Charles E. Judson, John ]. Podell, Charles
+. Bryant and Otho s. Gather should
answer such questions rs were pr0pounded
in the inquiry OF Nicholas C. Miller or
stand in contempt of court that conclusion
became plain.
The bill filed by Miller makes specific
chaages of fraud against the trust, and the
latter, in answer, denies this. The suit
grew out OF transaction by which Miller
transferred his interest In the Lake Gas
Company to the trust, in consideration of
receiving as part payment a certain amount
of stock in the Gas Trust Company, the
total stock is said to be of the same amount
as the actual cost of the gas companies and
other properties included in the trusts pur-
chases. Miller charges that the trust stock
has been watered to the amount of $40 600, :
600. and that it was part of this inflated
stock with which he was paid. Certain
questions bearing upon this phase ef the
controversy were put to the promoters Of
the trust and they refused TO answer, with
the result indicated.
