THE RULE NOWADAYS.

The question which has just been raised
as to the name of the Concord, the new
cruiser just launched at Chester, is an in
teresting one. The name of the predecessor
of this vessel showed an intention to name
the ships of that class after the Revolution
ary battlefelds, the other ship having been
named the Yorktown. Nevertheless, the
Secretary of the Navy in arranging for the
launch exhibited belief that the vessel was
named after the town of Concord. n. H.;
which has ELECTED the reverse of compli-
mentary expressions from the village in
Massachusetts, where the embattled farmers
fred the shot which it is hoped that the new
war ship may emulate if occasion arises.
Nevertheless, the people of Concord,
Mass, must hold Secretary Tracy excused
for his mistake. Ex-Secretary and Senator
Chandler halls from Concord, n. H. The
education of Cabinet officer at present in
forms him that while Revolutionary reminis-
censes are all very fine, the thing that
really counts nowadays is Senatorial and
political influence. Secretary Tracy did no
more than to recognize the prevalent in
huence of the day in supposing that Senator
Chandler's town had the pull and that the
historical village was ignored.

Pennsylvanin's Situntion.

7 N the Pennsylvania Senate discussions on the
bill referred to Senator Emery. of Mexican
county, said:
THE system of canals was more complete
in Pennsylvania in the early history of our
State than the canals of any other State of the
Union. But. by foolish act, the Legislature
wiped out of existence the entire competition
of the waterways against the railroads. And
believe, as has been stated on this floor, that
this is but the commencement of an entire
Abandonment of the whole system of canals in
the State of Pennsylvania. Why, sir, the
canal leading from the Hudson, in the State OF
New York. to Lake Erie, in the same State, has
upon its line cities every 10 or Is miles. manu-
featuring the raw products OF the State of
Pennsylvania, because of cheap transporta-
tion. Besides that four trunk lines of railroad
have been laid along its banks and are busy
engaged transporting the entire products Of
the west. And do you presume to say that
Pennsylvania could not have reaped the same
harvest that New York is reaping to-day had
he retained her public works-had it been a
constitutional requirement, as It is in the State
retained by the State. You are all aware, Sena-
tors. that attempts have been made from time
to time to wipe out the Erie Canal. but the Con-
st1tution steps in and prohibits it,"
Il repeat that the Erie Canal has been to the
State of New York, such an ally as that it has
been impossible for the railroads to take
possession OF the commerce of that State.

Republic of America are so greedy that if they
could dry up the Mississippi river or the great
highways OF this country they would do it"

IMPERIAL EXPECTATIONS.

1t is an interesting report which comes
from Germany that the letters of the En-
peror to Herr Won Boetticher indicate his
purpose to make that official the Prime
Minister in place of Bismarck. The declar-
alton of the Emperor that Herr Won Boetti-
cher has been his main supporter in the
effort to carry out the social reform movement
certainly looks like an indirect assertion
that the old Chancellor has not supported
the movement, and that the Emperor is
getting tired of being held in leading
strings by the old statesman who created his
grandfather's empire.
This adds a new and remarkable sig
nifcance to the recent speech of the EN-
peror. If the young "war lord" has taken
the bit between his teeth to a degree which
leads him to throw off Bismarck's guard
ianship, the determination of the latter to
remain in Office for the Emperor's sake may
subject him to a gratuitous rebuff. What
if the threat to "dash in pieces" those who
oppose the Emperor should include both the
Reichstag which fails to adopt his measures
and the veteran Prime Minister who fails to
carry out his pet hobby.
1tis only necessary to remark that if the
impetuous Emperor should undertake to
"dash in pieces" the Iron Chancellor's
policy, and the Reichstag's authority at
one and the same stroke, he NAV find other
features ensuing than those which he
promises

ANrNvoICE OF CHEAP LABOR.

The report of the landing of some six
hundred Hungarian lsborers in New York,
reported to be bound for this section. is in.
teresting, although the deduction drawn in
New York that they are intended to take
the place of native labor, is not clearly es-
tablished.
The evidence as to the locality where this
unassimilated and cheap labor will be put
to work does not show beyond dispute, that
ii will be in the neighberhood of Pittsburg.
The supposition that they are to displace
labor now employed in the coke industry,
is debarred by the fact that the coke firms a
month ago signed scale in which advanced
wages were paid avow edly for the purpose
of retaining the better class of labor. 1t is
hardly to be expected that these for
eigners can be a factor in the
impending dispute between the coal
miners and operators, because such laborers
in the railroad mines would be dear if they
worked for nothing. II these men come to
Pittsburg their employment is likely to be
on some of the new enterprises where the
demand for common labor has been in excess
Of the supply. These men are not likely to
displace any of the native or assimilated
labor OF this section, though their presence
NAV retard the advance in the wages for
common labor which was almost inevitable,
unless new labor had been brought in.
That this large influx of cheap labor is
brought here under some sort of contract is
more than probable, and furnishes telling
commentary on our immigration law which
lets il labor of this sort as a sieve lets in
water, and only sends back the labor that is
poptad

COMBINATION AND DISCRIMINATION.

1t is announced, apparently on behalf of
theassociated railroads connected with Pitts
burg, that they have decided not to make
any changes in the coal rates. This is un-
derstood to refer especially to the group
rates. 1t is NOT clear whether it also carries
the meaning that the gross discrimination
permitted by the Central Traffic Associa-
tion in favor of the Hooking Valley is to
continue. Some of the coal men refuse to
accept the decision as authoritative; but the
manner of its announcement leaves little
expectation OF the remedy sought after by
them.
This result is an illustration of the practi-
cal workings of railroad combination.
Some Of the railroad officials have shown
that they consider the present adjustment of
rates an unjust one; and there is no doubt
that if each line were to act by itself the
inequalities would be rectifed But it has
been so sedulously inculcated by railroad
ethics that it is the objectionable sin for
a railroad to make such rates solely with
reference to the best interests of itself and
its shippers, that these railroad men will
let the injustice continue rather than, by
taking Independent action. to break it up
and brave the enmity of the lines that are
interested in its maintenance. The discrim-
inations are distinctly sustained by the Cen
tral Traffic Association. Without that COM
bination they would not last month.
The responsibility of the combination for
the discrimination is made all the more
direct by the fact that it violates the princi-
Piles which the advocates OF combination
profess. An organization which pretends
to oppose discrimination and really sustains
it, furnishes its own condemnation.

The prevailing color was used in the draping
and trimming of this inviting booth as it was
in the manufacture of the candy booth, which
was 'cornered" in the opposite portion of the

was conducive to the ratting of silver that de-
lighted the ladies interested in the enterprise.

THE NAVIGATION coMPANY,s CLAIM.

The argument of the representatives OF the
Monongahela Navigation Company before
the River and Harbor Committee yesterday,
was directed to the question of valuation on
which the proposed appropriation of their
locks and dams should be made. The prin-
ciples that should govern the appraisement
are hardly open to DISPUTE. The Mononga-
hela Navigation Company has property
rights, of which it cannot be deprived even
by the exercise of eminent domain, without
due compensation. Included in those prop
erty rights is its franchise; and not even
Congress itself can take away the franchise
except for abuse or mlsuse-without COM
peasation. OF course opinions may differ
widely as to the value of the franchise; but
that is question to be decided by the tri-
bunal which makes the condemnation upon
the evidence presented. We think that
both the river interests and the Navigation
Company can stand together on the ground
that the company is entitled to compensa-
tion for its property. and that when the
property is taken, it should be condemned
as q whole and not by driblets.

among others there was sketch OF Senator
Philetus Sawyer, of Wisconsin. His por-
trait and the account OF his new home, his
wealth and amiability, appear to have
made deep impression upon no less than
seven thousand two hundred and thirty
seven females. Every one Of these contiding
maids and widows has written to Senator
Sawyer putting her heart and hand at his
disposal It is beautiful exempliication
of the holy, disinterested ambition OF woman
to minister unto lonely and unwived hu-
manity. Think of it (! over seven thousand
heroines willing to share the sorrows, the
trials, the responsibilities, to say nothing of
the bank account, of an elderly gentleman
with a seat in the United States Senate
While the American woman is equal to such
efforts no one need despair of her glorious
destiny.
Senator Sawyer, strangely enough does
not appreciate the great compliment paid to
him. He turned over all the letters he re-
ceived to the Hon. W. B. Allison, his
correspondents should be accommodated if
possible by him. Of course neither Mr..
Sawyer nor Mr.. Allison can make all these
women happy-unless both Senators are
willing to move to Utah and defy the Fed.
eral restrictions of polygamy. But they
can, and our fair readers will say, we doubt
not, that they should marry as many as pos
sible, say one apiece. The Senate would be
of some use to the country if it would, that
is to say as far as the bachelors in it are con-
cerned, reduce the deplorable surplus of
spinsters. The spinsters seem to be willing
enough, in all conscience.

A PRACTICABLE COMPROMISE.

The meeting of coal miners yesterday was
made the occasion of declaration by some
of the leading representatives that the
miners of this district must take their stand
for 90-cent rate. because the Ohio, Illinois
and Indiana miners are taking strong action
to obtain proportionate rates in their dis
tricts. This sounds like good logic, pro-
vided the miners of the other States succeed
in obtaining their rates. We have little
doubt that the operators of this district
would concede such rate if they can be
guaranteed that competing coal fields will
pay wages equally high. On the other
hand, the miners can see that if the West
ern districts pay no more than they have
been doing, to establish the high rate for
mining here would simply condemn the
mines to idleness. Unfortunately, previous
efforts of the Western miners to obtain good
wages have resulted in defeat. With these
facts recognized, compromise, making the
rate for the Pittsburg field conditional on
the success of the miners in competing dis
tricts, ought not to be hard to agree upon.
