Will the Fair be POSTPONED ?


Our dispatches stated yesterday that
there is an impression in Washington that
there will be no worlds fair in 1892. 1t is
not TO be wondered at that there is such an
impression. -Four cities want it. and thew
are making extraordinary efforts to get it.
The Republican party also wants to use it
as political machine, and that makes an
other complication. If there is no fair in
1892 it will be because congress is unable to
decide upon site for il.
The spectacle which congress presents in
its efforts to select a site is not ono calcu-
lated to raise the average congressman in
the public estimation. The fact that the
fair ought to be held in the city in which it
would have the best chance for success
financially and otherwise is lost sight Of en-
tirely. All that congressman think about
is the gaining Of an advantage for the re-
spective cities in which they feel an interest
1t is believed that the republicans want
the fair held in Chicago, because they are
afraid that if it is held in New York the
democrats will be benefited by it, aud they
think that if it is held in Chicago, where
they hold their national conventions, they
will gain an advantage. If congressman
could rise to the level of statesmen in this
matter of the fair. they would ask them
selves this question: I'm what city ought
the fair to be held 10 order to insure it the
greatest successN The answer to that ques-
ton ought to settle the question Of the site.
About every congressman knows that no
where else would the fair be so great a
success as in New York

If Col. Dudley has ever called for an
Investigation by congress of the "blocks of
five" business, he called 50 softly that no.
body heard him. He has sometimes re-
ferred to the fact, however, taat he had a
package of dynamite in his pocket, and
that it was liable to explode That is to
say, if republicans did not shield him he
would not sh ED them.

Republican organs priat special from
Indianapolis saying that Sim Coy, of that
city, has made a confession" He icon
fessesn that he is not the only person who
was implicated in the election frauds for
which he was sentenced to the penlte ltiary,
and he says that the crime which he put
into execution was planned by democratic
leaders. Now there is something suspicious
about this confession" 1t win be remem =
bered that Coy was pard oned by President
Harrison on the accommodation of prom
meat Indiana republicans. Nobody has
ever explained why the Pr, sident and his
Indiana advisers interested themselves 50
greatly in Coy Il is possible that it was
agreed in advance that Coy should pay for
his pardon with confession" made to

Gov. Albeit, of New Jersey, will receive
an annual salary of $4,000, bin increasing
the governors salary from S., 900 to $40, 900
year being one of the last signed by the
outgoing executive. There are only two
other states, New York and Pc 1nsylvania,
which pay their governors as much. If
Georgia paid the half of $4,000 nobody
would have good reason to object.

Republican organs will probably have a
good deal to say about the Mississippi legis =

repealed. They may allude to him as
southern fire-eater, but they should not for
get that there are many northern republicans

disfranchised, since the colored vote can no
longer to depended upon for the republican
ticket.

QUITE HARMLESS PEOPLE.

A body of people designated as the
National Christian association has been
holding convention the past week at
Chicago to denOunce and resolve against
all kinds of secret societies. There are
some very excellent people-perhap
too good for their timese-who have
made hobby of butting their not too
hard heads in the direction of the inSti-
tutions that are presumed to use goat
for that sort of exercise. The Boston
oracle, JOSEPH Cook, Illuminated with
lurid rhetoric at the cosmical fair city,
ard would have all the states adopt the
Vermont law imposing a fine of 5000
upon every person wi o takes a secret
oath not sanctioned by statute. He
drew an alarming picture of sacrilege
and crimson hues in the secret halls,
and found, if not directly conspirators,
those who are on the paths of disloy-
atty. 1t was to him a solemn truth that
three-fourths of the public officials are
members of these societies. 1t is evil
dent that Mr.. Cook has never tainted
his patriotic being with the aroma of
any mystic association, and need
feel small personal responsibility for
their malign connections. His warning
voice has been lifted before the people,
and he would find national security in
DISTINGUISHING all members of secret
societies. The role be has undertaken
would appall anature cast in any smaller
mould. The country is full of the Sc
cret associations of every character, and
there are men belonging to them who
really have no intention to pull down
the things JOSEPH venerates. or extract
the feathers from the national bird.
WASHINGTON, GARFIELD and several
respectable people still living were or are
prominent members of these denounced
societies. There is no more innocuous
Orineffective sphere of effort than this of
the other strong man of Athens besides
JOHN H., and the supplemented who
think they are following pious instincts

hibitory states, and defining the scope
of interstate commerce to be limited by
the local exercise of police powers. The
Dakota men will be impelled to special
zeal In this cause by the facts that
the prohtbitory statute in their
state has just come into operation and
their own election is to be determined
by the voting this year. If it is pre-
sumed that their constituents are burn
ing with zeal for the policy that they
have imbedded in the constitution and
put into working order in the most rigor-
Gus law any state has had, it is the OPP
portunity of these gentlemen to frantic
ally demand the passage of their bills.
They may not be able to effect much in
congress, but they can follow the prae-
tice of the North Dakota representa-
tives and put daily interviews on the
wires to show their constituents what
they are unable to do. Under this de-
cision of the court the adjoining states
will derive the chief benefit of the
liquor trade. They will manufacture
and ship to their prohibition customers
in original packages, supplying the con-
Sumers without having the local licenses
to pay. Without the aid of congress
prohibition now can be little more than
an inconvenience.

ANIRREVEHENT VIEW

The returns are nearly all in from the
election of the preSbyteries, and the
liberals are about out of the woods. Of
10 that are reported, 10 have declared
for tine new platform to So against and
5 sitting on the fence. There are only
IS more precincts to hear fro m; and,
even if it requires two-thirds majority
to eXtricate the true faith. trere is
hardly possibility of defeat. The dis
position outside to treat this renovation
of a creed in about the same light as the
reform of tariff does not quite comport
with the gravity of the theme involved.
Still, the elimination of doctrines that
have been alleged to be immutable as
truth suggests phase that has pecul-
lar aspect. If the dogmas to be excised
we're vital and essential to post-terres-
trial immunity from disaster in the view
of the church fathers, and wrong views
are fatal; if it is now voted that the
departed have all chenshed and died
by the untrue, will not the revision
make their condition uncomfortable?

Belgium and Holland have been the
scenes of many interesting historical
events and have among their great men
some of worldwide renown. These
facts added to the natural Quaintness,
the unique customs and manners of the

DETRIMENTAL TO TRADE.
The House Passes the Antitrust
"a ,RiH

- DILL
: WASHINGTON, May 1.-Mr. Mckinley,
from the committe Oh rules, reported a
resolution in the house to-day for the
immediate consideration Of bills report
ed from the Judiciary committee in the
following order: Senate bill relating
to trusts; house bill relating to copy
rights; house bill relating to bankruptcy
and such other bills as the committee
may call up, This order to be in force
to-day and tomorrow. The previous
question was ordered and the resolution
was adopted, and the house, in ac-
cordance with its terms, proceeded
to consider the senate bill to
protect trade and commerce against
unlawful restraints and monopolleS.
Mr.. Culberson, of Texas, advocated the
bill. 1t confined itself to subjects over
which there was no question about the
power of congress to legislate. Mr..
Butterworth, of Ohio. inquired whether
the bill would operate against a Chicago
firm which furnished meat to butcher
under contract to sell at fixed price,
and subsequently set up another butcher
with authority to sell at lower price
in order to freeze out the first. Mr..
Culberson thought it would; but that
was a question to be decided by the
courts. E. B. Taylor, of Ohio, said that
the pending bill went as far as
any legislation which could be
passed under the constitution,
and it must be supplemented
with, legislation by. the states Mr.
