From the CHICAGO Trib,,ae.

Every seat in the North State street car was
taken, and four or five persons were standing
On of tire latter was a young woman. W 10
stood near the m ddls If the car. A tai young
ma > rather too slim for his hight from an
athletic point of view, rose from his seat near
the rear door and stepped forward to inform
the young woman, who was looking the other
way, at there was seat for her. As lie did
so man drop ed intoit.

He was the bigger man, but the young fel

was on his feet and on the platform before he
knew it.
Con luctor conductorr' he crei; but the
conductor had PARKWAY look in his eyes and
was interested in something going on down the

and. lifting his hat politely said:
Madame, there's a seat for YOu"
And the passengers were SO tickled that thew

man simply smiled and said:
College athletics are of some value now and
then"
Then he leaned up against the front door and
became absorbed in paner, while the young
woman watched him adnirin sly.

On the Move.

Senator Buffers desire to have some of
the blacks leave South Clrolina is in fair
way of being gratif9d. The lynching out
rage at Ba 'nwell has done more than any
thing else could POSSIBLY do to induce them
to emigrate. Hundreds of them have
yiel led to the persuasive eloquence of Arkan-
sas immigration agents and are on their way
to that state. 1t is believed that hundreds
more will follow them. If the N vement
grows to the proportions it now promises to
do, Barnwell will soon be wholly white
mans county.
There does not seem to be any objection
in Arkansas to receiving the blacks. There
are hundreds of thousands of acres of rich
lands there which will make a bale of
cotton to the acre, and whic are unoccu-
pied. Labor is wanted to prepare them for
cultivation a"d to cultivate them.
The blacks who go there, however from
South Carolina and Georgia expecting to
find it easier to make living will find
themselves greatly mistaken. They will
wish themselves in their old homes be-
fore they have been in their new ones
long.
In Barnwell county there does not appear
to be any o. position to the emigration of
the blacks. The attitude of the whites is
said to be one OF indifference. If that is the
case it is to be assumed that the la or of the
blacks is not necessary to the prosperity of
Barnwe county.

The long gubernatorial contest in Wet
| Virginia is drawing c a CT Sc. There is no
reason TO doubt that the legislature, now
sitting in joint session, vii declare that
judge Fleming, the democratic candidate,
was fairly elected governor. The ma i1Tiiy
report Of the legislative committee, ap-
pointed to investigate the election. is
strongly in his favor, and it is supported by
testimony THAI shows frauds on the
ballot-box were committed by repub-
licans in may unties, rart Gu
larly 10 those which border on
Maryland and Virginia. On the face Of the
returns the republican candidate, Gen.
Golf, had a plurality OF 1l2 The returns
from six counties excited the suspicion of
the democratic leaders, and a slight inves-
LEGATION satisfied them that hundreds of
illegal votes had been cast for the republican
ticket. They at once began n contest, and
Gov. Wilson declared that be would retain
the Office of governor until it should be
determined whether Elem ng or Golf was
entitled TO it.
The committee found that the republicans
had used money freely TO induce negroes,
who had been brought into the state to
work on railroads, but who bad not resided
within the state long enough to become
citizens, to vote tbs republican ticket 1t
was shown that in four counties in the Ka-
nawha Valley $50, 900 was received the day
before the election, and distributed among
the transient laborers in the mines and on
the railroads. d ubtless much of the
provided by the national repu. lean COM
mittee, as the purchased voters were re-
quired to vote for Harrison, Golf and Pro
lection"
1t IS rather remarkable that Gen. Golf,
after b ing informed Of the result of the in
vestigation, should have made any further
claim to the Office Of governor. If he had
been wise he would have admitted that his
claim TO the Office was not valid. He Ger
tainly cannot hope that the legislature, in
the face of the majority report of its
committee--a report VIII ca places him aid
his party in a very unenviable light
will declare that he was elected governor
1t may be that be hopes to convince a por-
ton at leas of his party that he is the VIC
tim Of democratic outrage. He may sue
coed in doing that, and thus be bette able
to hold up his head when he appears in
public. The frauds which were committed
in his behalf wera certainly Of character
to make him feel like bowling his head in

Dispatches from Des Moines STATE that
there is a ru nored movement on the part
Of the democrats of the Iowa legislature to
unseat sixteen members of the House, four
teen of whom are republicans, on the
ground that the districts from which they
come do not contain the required po ula-
ton. Republican organs call this a base
democratic plot, but it must appeal to the
reason of every one that if the constitu ion
requires a district to C lntain a certain num-
Der of inha bitants before it is entitled TO
representative, and if sixteen districts do
not contain the required population, a
movement to expel the alleged members
from these districts would not be base
plot, bat a very proper hing. A scheme to
unseat dem >crat congressman who were
fairly elected might very appropriately be
called base plot, and a very large-sized
scheme of that sort has been hatclei by
Senator Quay, Speaker Reed, and President
Harrison.

The longer congress delays action on the
worlds fair matter the stronger becomes
republican sentiment that the fair should
rot be held in 1892. The este lsible reason
of many republicans proposing to posi-
pone it until 1898 is that proper buildings
could not be completed by the year first
named, but some of them give the reason
Whlch probably moves them all, viz, they
are afraid that, somehow or other, the fair.
if held in New York in a presidential cleo
ton year, would help TO carry that state for
tue democrats. Ex-senator Platt is under
stood TO be working for a ,sSpoae.nent.
and republican sentiment for postponenlent
is gradually spi eading. 1t may be- re-
marked that, if the 400th anniversary of the
discovery of America is to be celebrated
with a worlds fair, it would be ridicul us
to hold the far in any year except 1892. 1t
may also be remarked that the republicans
are the only ones who seem inclined to bring
politics into the matter
