A GOOD EXAMPLE.

A class of papers appear to find much
satisfaction in the picture drawn in the
correspondence of Chicago journal of
a former United States senator standing
at the case as common printer" in
newspaper Office in Santa Fe. They re-
member he was a Republican senator
from Kansas when partisanship ran so
high that the Republicans attempted to
impeach and depOse President JOHN
son, and would have succeeded but for
the opposing vote of Senator Ross, of
Kansas, Senator TRUMBULI, of Illinois,
and few other honest and fearless Re-
publicanS who dared assert their convic-
tions in the face of the white heat of
party rage. There are those still I'M
willing to forgive them for that vote, al
though it is generally conceded that it
ayerted a scandal and peril. There can
be no question that it indicated the
moral courage and honesty of Sena-
tor Ross. He represented state
as extreme in its political aspects as it
has ever been since, with a class in
power fiercely intolerant. That it would
end his career in Kansas, except as a
private citizen, was evident. He was
denounced as traitor, and burned in
effigy. But he lived through it. and has
been useful since, both at the helm of
public journals and in the mechanical
phase of the vocation. In either part
he might be the peer of the United
States senator. He has been governor
of New Mexico the past few years by
appointment of President CLEVELAND,
and that he is now back at his life trade
shows that he was governor too hon
est to use his opportunities, as most
other territorial governors have. Can
any of them be named who have stepped
down so empty of hand that they we're
compelled to resume their former bust
ness? Gov. Ross shows that he is a
man to be hOnored, and his example is
one that his friends may be proud of.

ENGLAND WON'T INTERFERE.
Canada Must Settle the Behring
Sea Difficulty Without Imperial
II

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. Sir John A.
Macdonald returned to the capital to-
day in consequence, it is understood, of
the receipt by the Canadian govern
ment of important dispatches from
England. The text of these dispatches,
though not positively known, are said
to be tacit refusal on the part of
the imperial authorities to al
low the Pacific squadron to inter-
fere with the Behring sea difficulty.
Canada. it seems, must settle the diff
ticulty itself, as the evident intention
of the home government is to throw the
colony ON its own resources. This is
further corrOborated by the fact that
Canadian affairs were ignored in the re-
cent speech of the queen. Proroga-
ton of the British house of commons
and the sudden announced return of
the premier was the signal for cabinet
meeting, which was held to-day and
lasted over two hours. All the ministers
were present except Sir John Thomp-
son, Hon. E. Dewdney and Hon. Mr..
Foster. All documents received thus
far from Victoria respecting the recent
seizures by the revenue cutter Rush
were under consideration. The
members of the government, it is
understood. are of the opinion
that the United States will relin-
quish its claim to exclusive sovereignty
in Behring sea. The present delay can
only be accounted for by the fact that
England has. with strange reluctance
interfered in any way beyond reiterat,
ing demands for the appointment of
convention to settle the question. The
claims for compensation will aggregate
at least 100000. They will be trans
mitted to the imperial government
without delay, along with strong de-
mand for decisive action.

THE SOUTH DAKOTA ISSUE.

The Republican party of South Da-
kota has put itself squarely in line with
Iowa and Kansas on the prohibition
racket. There is a strong element in
that section that really believes in that
system, and would ride it out of the
party if it could not control the organ
ization. The late convention was DOM
mated by that persuasion, and rejected
by nearly three-fourths vote modi-
fed position on that subject. somewhat
after the style of the tail of the Repub-
lican Chicago delivery last year. The
object was to save the votes that don't
want to see the dogma imbedded in the
constitution. by not making the support
of the amendment submitted an article
of Republican faith. But the over
whelning majority insisted not
only in making constitutional prchi-
bition plank in the platform, but adj
yanced step, and demanded that it
should be made a matter of national
legislation. This ground is taken in
face of the fact that the states of Massa-
chusettS, New Hampshire and Rhode
Island, after a thorough test, have pro-
nounced against legal prohibition as in
effective and demOralizing, and Penn
sylvania has recorded a similar convic-
ton with prOdigiOuS emphasis. In Iowa
and Kansas, too. the impartial observers
believe that It's losing its hold upon the
public mind. 1t is proving an educa-
tor i'll immoral devices, and destroyer
of the sanctity of law. The unequiv-
ocal attitude of the Republican party
in South Dakota might be presumed to
array against it all who regard
the system with disfavOr. 1t is
generally assumed, however, that
it will carry. The conspicuously
active forces are for it. But
there is nothing in any voting yet had
that is at all decisive on the question.
When the present constitution was
voted on in 1885 there was but $50 or so
majority for prohibition, and it was
light vote, the opponents of the move
ment very generally not voting. Two
years ago most of the counties, aside
from the Black Hills, adopted prohibit
ton by local option, but after trial of
a year the larger ones nearly all de-
clared that it was no panacea for the
evils of intemperance. The towns and
cities, with almest no exceptions, voted
to discard the improbable attempt to
regulate habits by law. 1t is not prob
able that there has been any change of
sentiment since. There will be a strong
adverse vote, and the heavy work being
dOre by the ProhiDitiOniStS is an indica-
ton of some apprehension as to the re-

MAKING THEM PROFITABLE.

GARRISON, the postal executioner,
owns the Republican paper at Des
Moines, and publishes lists OF the clubs
of subscribers sent In by the postmas-
tiers. His assumption of bosship of the
party in Iowa. is not altogether palata-
BILE to some of the Republican papers,
and they insist that he is using his
HclerkShip" to make the postmasters
do service for his paper. But why
shouldn't he? Does not the good WAN
AMAKER find business advantage for
his Philadelphia store in the control of
postotfices? GARRISON has his fingers
on the lower grade offices, four-ffthS
or more of them are, and his paper is
no doubt increasing in circulation.
But there is unpleasantness brewing.
when staunch and influential Republi-
can papers like the Cedar Rapids Ca
zette use language like this: ''If the
GARRISON manifesto means that SEN
ator ALLISON will help undo the rail
road legislation, and that he is not in
hearty accord with the policy of the
state and party on railroad control, he
must go. The crisis will come some
day. The scales will be knocked from
the peoples eyes, and when the rotten
ness of CLARKsON and his methods are
known, and his paid service in behalf
of corporations and all that, the revolu-
ton will come, aDd then the meanest
cur would not do him the honor to rec
OgniZe him."

A CASE FOR SYMPATHY.

1t is getting to be comparatively easy
to sympathiZe with TANNER, SO many
are going for him. Republican papers
and people who have been saying that
only bad Democrats were objecting to
him, are now demanding that the presi-
dent shall take his official scalp. A Re-
publican congressman from New York
is credited with special mission to
Washington threatening to resign him
self if TANNER is not removed. This is
alarming, if true, as his seat cannot be
spared. He is the congressman who ad-
viSed the president some time ago that
the corporal was n. G. in his important
station, His present grievance is that
on his way to Milwaukee, TANNER
spoke of him as one whose brains could
all be put into the eye OF mosquito
without annoyance TO the pungent little
bird. Without any attempt to prove
that TANNER was mistaken or exag-
gerated the fact, he lets his wrath rise
and demands the vindication of his
grey matter by the removal of the of
fender. This borders upon persecution
and excites sympathy. TANNER is evil
IDENTIFY an incompetent fool. but he can't
help it. He was made that way, but
people would have never known it if he
had initiated the reticence of the boy
who went to mill.

FIVE THOUSAND AT WORK.
LondOn's Great strike Is Prac-
ticalIy Ended.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Five thousand men
are at work at late hour tonight load
ing and discharging vessels at the
wharves here. An attempt which was
made to organize a general strike OF
builders, engineers, and other mechan-
les in South London has collapsed. Sir
Donald Currie to-day announced his in
tention to ask parliament to deal with
the privileges of dock proprietors and
shipownerS and settle disputed rights
regarding the unloading of vessels.
There was a slight break in the ranks
of the employers this morning. Five
wbarfngerS agreed to the mems terms,
and upon their wharveS work is
now going on to the full capacity. AT
the other WharveS men have cOngre-
gated in large numbers, ready to
go to work at a moments notice, the
whartingers being all, so it is reported,
ready to make terms with the strikers.
The aspect of affairs along the Thames
is much livelier than for weeks past.
The men who have obtained work coli
tribute one days pay to the relief fund.
John Burns declares that the dOckmen
have given the dock companies cruSh7
ing blow between wind and water"
Australia has sent $4,000 to aid the
strikers. The officials of the dock COM
panies have again called upon the police
to protect the men who are at work;
The ship owners made another APP
peal for permission to unload ships
themselves. but met with curt refusal.
Burns in a speech to the dOckmen to-
day, predicting the success of the strike,
announced that the demands now made
were by no means final and when the
dock companies were beaten 1t would
not be question of pence an hour for
ordinary day work and pence an hour
for overtime, but of 7pence and pence
respectively.
The overtures made for resumption
of work in the Millwall and Commercial
docks proved fruitleSS. The bishop of
London conferred with Mr.. Burns yes
terday Oh the subject of mediation.
The Commercial Dock company yes
terday offered to concede the demands
of 5000 deal porters. The men were
willing to resume work, but late last
night the strike committee forbade
them to do so. The strike COM
mittee will issue another manifesto to-
day. MIR. Burns declares his belief that
the strike will be over by Monday. 1t
is estimated that the strike has already
entailed loss of over FL, 100000.

HOW 1T WORKS.

The Republicans seem to have more
systematic and complete arrangement
for distributing things in Missouri than
in most other states. Four of the dis
tricts have Republican congressman,
who constitute board for the parceliug
out of matters left to the senators when
Republican. Each member controls the
minor Offices in his district, and in the
nine Democratic districts the defeated
Republican is the distributor. In three
OF these, cases have came to light where
the candidate has affixed a valuation
upon the offices and received pay for Sc
curing them. No advertisement of
prices and schedule is made in the
papers, and in fact there is a disposition
to avoid publicity in the matter. Some
who misread the sacred word think it
encourages rewards in secret. That is
doubtless the general rule in Missouri.
1t is probable that the FLANAGANs in
other states can find pointers in Mis-
souri, for obtaining the most creamy re-
suits in milking the public bovine. The
system, however, may be in general
operation.

more testimony was adduced to-day
showing that Terry habitually went

Justice Field testified: Deputy Nagle

Lathrop for breakfast, and soon after
taking our seats Judge Terry
and his wife entered. AS
they passed down the aisle Mrs.
Terry glanced at me for moment. and
then turned about and left the place.

l was daZed for a moment, but soon
realized that Terry had received death
wound, and arose and left the ROOM"
Justice Field further testified that he
believed that if Maggie had not shot
Terry, he (Fieldl would have been dead
within the next five seconds. The ex-
preston of Terry's face when he raised
his arm to strike second blow could
not be mistaken. It was full of malice
and murder. Justice Field declared he
had never had any difficulty with Terry
prior to the Sharon decision. They
had been on the most friendly terms.
Terry had often tried cases before him
and on entering court had always spoken
pleasantly. During the last year or two,
however, he seemed to have entirely
changed and to have lost his respect for
the courts. Judge Terry added that the
story of his having asked Terry to sup
port him for president some years ago
was pure fiction. Justice Field was not
cross examined. Mr.. Maggie will proba-
bly, be examined tomorrow.

WARNING TO RUSSIA,

Frontier.
This Movement Presages an

Next Year.
London's Great Strike Of
D0ckmen Is Practically at
an End.
Gen. BoulangeP Asks for a
New Trial by Court
Martial.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Little by little the
German army is being increased, and
one army corps after another is being
added to its effective strength. Since
the opening of the year no less than
four corps have been added, and now
the emperor has given orders for the
formation of fifth, with headquarters
at Br0mberg. on the Eastern frontier.
This move is evidently intended as a
reply to Russia, who continues to mass
her troops upon her Western frontier;
and in this way Emperor William serves
notice upon the car that he does not
mean to he caught mapping. 1t is
pointed out. that contrary to the usual
custom in such cases, there is no at
tempt at concealment. The emperor
seems to have taken special pains to
give the fullest possible publicity to
this plan to mass formidable force on
RusSia's frontier, and this the German
press accept as note of defiance. The
more sensational of the Berlin papers
go so far as to say that this indicates
determination on the part of the en-
peror to force RuSSia'S hand. Should
Russia reply by further increasing her
force On the German and Austrian line,
as is confidently expected, the crisis will
be precipitated before the end of the
wear.

EASY. RuT FOOLISH

The ready wit of the man who was at
the mercy of a malignant luDatic, who
demanded that he jump from high
steeple. saved his life. He urged that
any fool could jump down, but the
great feat would be to go down and
jump up. He was allowed to go down
for this purpose. The man GRAHAM
has been over Niagara Falls sealed up
in barrel, and now wants to be paid
some thousands to repeat the feat,
which is in the compass of any fool, with
most of the chances that he may be
killed. If he can devise way to goup
the falls he will do something worth
paying HIM for. The only purse he
ought to have for going down should be
a small funeral expense in case it was
needed. 1t would be a misfortune to
have him survive a second trip, as it
would start an epidemic of the reckless
and hare-brained to repeat the attempt,
and lives might be lost that were really
worth saving.

HAS GOOD EFFECT.

The impression has been prevalent,
and to some extent encouraged by par
tiSan misrepresentation, that the South
had chilly hands for new settlers from the
North or other lands. As late as 1880
there were but pa, SS5 persons of north
ern birth residing in the South, a small
or number than at the beginning of the
war. This is a somewhat surprising
statement in views of the fact that the
war had been over fifteen years. But
in the last eight years there has been a
marked change. From figures given in
a Southern publication, since 1880 some
200, 900 people have moved from north
of the Ohio to the South. Foreign i'm
migration has still larger figures, reach
ing 336.SS3 in the eight years, more than
doubling. But the efforts to fill up the
vast area, and build up the South
in an agricultural way, by ac-
eessiOn to the population, show
greatly increased activity of late. Blu
reaus and associations are organized in
nearly all the states, and systematic
efforts made to diffuse in the Northwest
and Europe aIluring pictures of the nat
ural advantages and resources of that
region. They are sending exhibits of
their productions to all Western fairs
and expositiOns. One day this week a
large delegation of Georgia farmers
started for tour of Ohio, Indiana, IL
linois, Iowa, and perhaps other states,
to discourse to the people about Georgia
and what it offers them. While North
ern and Western people contribute to
the population of the South, there is
perhaps less, but a very considerable
migration from the South to the North
west. This intermingIlng and diffusion
is among the most assuring promises of
the future. 1t tends to diSsipate sec
tiOnal feeling and cement the unity of
the people.
