cided the case Of theAmerican sugar re

blindp 4 tell you by the splendor oI
Cod that tempest is brooding on hii
brow, there is lightning gathering in hli
soul for you" DO men dream that be-
cause the Genius of Justice has with
drawn and no longer presdes in the
councils Of the nation, that therefore Il
has become deaf and dumb, and blind,
Let them not deceive themselves with
such deluslon.
We are told that the unjust and ruin
Gus exacti0ns Of capital and corporate
power are made in conformity TO law
answer AZ an American citizen, as d
North Carolinian, aye, as a descendant Of
our Meckllnburg fathers, that the tyran-
nical mandates Of George the Third, were
accompanied by the boastful declaration
that he, TOO, was the rightful heir to the
British throne.
There Is no tyranny so degrading as
legalized tymnny-there is no injustice
30 impressive as that which stands en-
trenched behind the forms of law.
Thus, Mr.. Chairman have very
briefly referred 10 some Of the causes
which have inaugerated the "new revolu-
tion," and which assumed form and life
and being in the great convention at st.
Louis, last week. The cry for relief,
which swells up all over the land will
not, cannot, be suppressed. Justice, and
not charity, is what we demand. We war.
on no legitimate interest, legitimately
prosecuted, we earnestly invoke the sym
pathy and aid Of all good citizens of
whatever rank, or class, or vocation.
Thank GodI that between the hearts of
the promoters and their co-workers Of
this mighty reform movement there Is
no room nor place for sectional lines or
divisions.
Thank Godl that the farmers Of the
great Northwest and Of the south-repre-
sentatlves Of constituency Of 100000,
OF the most conservative Of all our people
were at last permitted to convene in st.
Louis without the oflicious and wicked
interference Of designing sectional agita-
tors those men who were "invislble in
war and invincible in peace" Many Of
the farmers were war-scarred veterans
who had faced each other in the red
blaze of battle.
But patriotically and magnanimously
turning their backs to the past, they clasp
ed hands as brethren, and standing
around the grave Of sectionalism, they
planted thereon the white rose of peace,
with the united prayer, that it might
bloom perpetually and forever
Thus united in purpose, and impelled
by common interest and common peril,
the ''new revolution" will move forward
with resistless force until the sovereign
ty Of the people shall be re-established
In the glory of Its majesty and power and
justice shall be re-enthroned.
And when old Father Time shall grow
weary with his work Of demolition and
shall sit down mid the wreck of empires
and wasted monuments and extinct gov
ernments, to recount his victories may he
find, towering high above the desolation
of the ages, in all the freshness and
beauty Of resplendent glory, the Temple
Of American Liberty, and inscribed above
Its portal, in characters Of fadeless light,
the symbols Of It's immortal duration

Fool But Himself.


Fool But Himself
Editor Journal Of Agriculture,
Some person, unknown 10 me but TO
whom my ylewso on public pollty are evil
IDENTITY known, has donated me years
subscription toyour paper. The only mo-
tive he could have had must have been TO
enllghten me on political economy by
means Of the eifuslons Of professed farm
crs published in its columns. Being
desirous Of looking at things from the
point Of view OF all classes have read a
number Of these screeds and mnst say
that as display Of pure unadulteated
Ignorance, or viclousness, they are a de.
cided success.
Almost without exception the burden
Of the diatrlbe Is-the sufferlngs Of the
farming class as a result Of the deliberate
and premedltated action Of the great po-
litlcal parties. Right here let me say to
the farmer, beware Of the refomer. He
Is either a crank, a dlsgruntled demo-
crat or republican, or demagogue in
some other shape. His modus operandi
Is to berate all who have sense enough to
see that no profitable action can be had
outside the two great parties He cries
aloud: "Oyercome your PARTISAN preju-
dices and vote for your own interest,""
meaning all the while vote for me. Now,
my farmer friends, that ia all wrong
Don't let yourselves be deluded into de-
serting your well.tried and safe old par
ties that have stood by you so nobly.
These chronic professional kickers and
croakers are evidently aiming to get your
support in some form Of new party, not
foryour benefit, but for theirs. They rea-
son very logically that, the class that fur
nishes so rich harvest for the Norway
oats swindler, the fruit evaporater swind-
Ter, the lightning-rod peddler, the bnnco-
steerer, etc, etc, promises fair return
for their disinterested efforts. Many have
been the failures In the search for soft
snaps IN the ranks Of the great parties;
and these failures are now ut work, not
only on the farmer but on all other labor
ing classes as well. Iintimated on begin
ming this article that am interested in
learning the point of view of all classes
In the application of my plans to this end
l am deeply panied to sec the too evident
progress being made by these demagogues
The majority seem to have chosen to Oper-
ate upon the skeleton Of the long dead
greenback party. They have wrapped its
bones about with platitudes, concealed It's
grinning skull with glittering generalities
thrown over til chameleon coat that
changes to suit all localities and finally
when seeing that It's defective proportions
were still apparent, even to the grade Of
intelligence they were aiming to dupe,
they have padded 1t and rounded It out
with fasehood and renamed il the Union
Labor Party. Periods Of depression In
all industrial pursuits always have been
and always will be. During the dlsatis-
faction among the ignorant lAboring
classes along in the seventies, which dis
satisfaction grew out Of period OGindus-
trial and perfectly natural, depression the
disgruntIed politicians conceived and gave
birth to the greenback party. The infant,
well and carefully nursed, grew to stall
wart proportions and threatened to make
mischief, but in the nick of time nature

The farmers Of America are, az are all

the rich; while there the/most slavish
labor and nlggardly economy fail TO

Poor Richards advice and live within
your income.
The great and justly famous political
economist, Edward Atkinson, shows by
incontrovertble statistics that your in
comes now have greater purchasing
power than ever before. The testimony
of all Europeans on visiting this country
Is that the poorer Americans are the
most extravagant people In the world.
Mr. Armour, whose wealth and standing
entitle him to speak authOritlvely
testified before the Senatorial smelling
committee that his business was much In.
jured by the fact that his customers
would not buy anything but the best cuts
leaving the rest on his hands to be sold
at a loss.
The roofing out ofthe native farmerby
the foreigner is accomplished, not by
making more, but by spending less.
If further proof Is needed that farmers
are living too high just read some Of the
despotic communications they send To
their journals.
Owing to the hard times overprOductlon

reason is that any one without ability IA
do anything else can farm and does farm
When times improve other callings will
take many away from farming and prices
will advance again as heretofore.
Another grievance Is the fact that far
mers are not represented by farmers In
Legislative bodies Now seriously my
farmer friends, wouldn't the average far
mer with his ignorance Of law, his slow
ness Of thought and naTowness of ideas
make rather apoOr showing at Jefferson
City. Are not the intuitiOns Of your class
that cause you TO send as your represen-
tatives men acquainted with law pratlCe,
men whose minds are polished by contact
with other minds and whose ideas are
broadened by intercourse with new ideas,
about cOrrectp Some of the common peO-
pie make themselves entirely too free
with this subject This is Of course a Re
public, but here as elsewhere and always
the "tittest must servive" and also che
fittest must rule. Mind and money are
now the only forces recognized In politics
and they will see 10 1t that the accumu-
lated wealth which distinguishes the civ
ilized from the savage man, is represented
by the class that knows enough to know
that the class that pays the taxes and ex-
penses must be given It's proper place and
consideration in law making

right of forfeiture defined in the United
States Supreme Courts decision on the
Thurman act.
This course holds out the best chance for
the people to obtain the value Of their in
vestment, which really created the trans
continental lines. The Union and Central
Pacific lines together form the most direct
route, and constitute a, system of undoub.ed
value. A portion of Il is in good condition;
portion has Intentionally been left to de-
cay. But if the United States should take
possession of both corporations at a valua-
tion to be fixed by legal process, and
should for the rest of its claim pursue the
property transferred from these corporations
into whatever hands it could be found, it
might create very decided doubt in the
minds Of certain corporate kings whether
their rulership of this country is as absolute
as has been alleged.
Such course would be especially desira-
bic because it would afford a solution of the
transcontinental problem in the interest of
the people and not in the interest of the
Goulds and Rockafellars. If the Govern
ment should make the Central and Union
Pacific roads actual highways, open to all
railway carriers desiring to transport freight
to any point along those lines, upon the
payment of reasonable tolls, the Gould plan
of combination which shall suspend COM
petition and force value into fictitious stocks
would fall into very small fragments.
1t is certain that under these circum-
stances it would be very wild course on
the part of the Government to say to the
millionaires engaged in the transcontinental
combination, that they must pay up or
surrender their property. 1t is necessary
to have prompt action, however, lest the
old-time policy of the Central and Union
Pacific should reduce these lines to the
proverbial right of way and two streaks of

TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
PITTsBURG. MONDAY. DEC. 1, 1890
THE OPENING SESSION.

Congress will recommence its session to-
dav after an interval which has been short
in time, but replete with instructive events.
Probably there have been few greater
changes in the political aspect of things
than have been wrought in the two months
and half since the adjournment of Con-
gress and its reassembling.
The summary of the change is that the
Republican party has just three months lett
of control in ali the branches of government
TO make good its claim on the popular con-
fdence in 1892. 1t can do this by learning
the lessons Of the late elections, but not by
ignoring them. 1t is not called upon to
stultifv itself by throwing its tariff policy
overheard; but it should see that public
confidence is not to be obtained either by re-
versing the political conclusions of the past
Two decades. or by reckless waste of the pub
lie funds. 1t should abandon the ATTEMPT
TO perl,etuate its power by act of Congress,
and cease to defy public opinion by unfair
treatment OF the minority.
More is to be done for the Republican party
bv q conservative and economical atten-
tion to public business of non-partisan
character than in any other way. Let the
practice Of increasing public expenditures
bv from fifty to one hundred millions with
each administration be reversed. Let the
needed business legislation be promptly at
tended TO and the interest of the public
in the Pacific railroads be properly guarded.
Finally let the Jobs of special legisla-
tion be religiously eschewed, and exclusive
attention be given to getting the business of
the whole country done in proper shape.
A course OF this sort will put the Repub-
lican party in a good position to demand the
public support in 1892. 1t remains to be
seen if the Republican leaders have the in
teIigence to learn and apply the lesson Of
last months election.

Serious Results of Recent Decision of the
u. s. Supreme Court.

Serious Results of q Recent Decision OF the
U. S. Supreme Court.
COLUMBUS, Nov. 30-Last May the Supreme
Court of the United States decided a case
which may lead to the most serious conse-
quences to all the towns in this State situated
upon the Ohio river, and particularly to the
city of Cincinnati. IL was in suit between
Kentucky and Indiana. as to jurisdiction over
Green River Island. and in which the court
gives the island to Kentucky, and it does so on
the ground that Kentucky is entitled to the
Ohio river along her border clear across the
low-water mark on the north side. This title
of Kentucky's comes through Virginia.
Both Governor Campbell and Attorney
General Watson agree in their estimate of the
Immense importance of this decision, to which
their attention has just been officially called.
On Monday Mr.. Watson will go to indianapolis
and have a conference with ex-senator Nc
Donald, who was one of Indiana's counsel in
the suit Just decided; then Mr.. Watson will go
to Washington and apply to the United States
Supreme Court for permission to interplead In
Ohio's behalf.
From the records and decision in the Green
River Island case decided last May. it appears
that the historical negarions set up by ViDton,
Chase and by other eminent lawyers and pub
licists against Virginia's claims have never
United States Supreme Court. In Ohio's
favor it will oe urged that she has never
acquiesced in the claims of Virginia-or oil
Kentucky and West Virginia, as would now be
or admitted the doctrine laid down by Chief
Justice Marshall.
