scheme for the organization OF a great
railroad trust, to embrace all the roads
in the country, was laughed at as i'm
practicable, visionary and Utopian,
things seem to be tending more and
more that way, and Mr.. MidgIey may
yet live TO see his favorite idea carried
into effect Consolidation of rail-
road systems is the order of
the day, aud hardly day
passes without some new scheme in
this direction being brought to light. 1t
is well known that Mr.. Willard is bent
on extending his system clear across the
continent. 1t now reaches from Chicago
to the Pacific, but he Ii after an Eastern
connection that he can control, so that
he may establish through service from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. So the work
of consolidation goes on. If the present
pace is continued rate wars will soon be
things of the past, because all the roads
of the country will be under one con-
trolling power, and the interests of one
will be looked upon as the interests of
all; then Chairman Midgley's dream will
have been realized.

A Texas Rate War Inaugurated.

Srecial to the Gazette.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June S.-For some
time past the freight rates to Texas have
been secretly cut by some OF the roads
an Missouri, Kansas and Texas last
week made cut in corn, saying
it was forced to do so by the
way in which the other roads
were cutting secretly, The Missouri
Paci 10 and Atchison, Topeka and Santa
F. claim that the Missouri, Kansas ana
Texas has been doing most of the secret
cutting and they cut the price on corn to
the lowest notch in order to force the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas to stop at
once AS this had no effect the Texas
roads last night made an agreement
TO cut cattle rates to all Texas
points this week in order to
further hurt the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas, as the latter road does most of
the cattle carrying trade TO Texas. This
move on the part of the Santa Fe and
Missouri Pacific will bring things to a
crisis at once. The agreement is to cut
rates from St. Louis, Chicago and Kan
sas City sixty per cent. and the cutting
will begin about Wednesday.

MAYOR POND NOMINATED.

Christopher A. Buckley handled the
Democratic Convention with a skill born
of long practice. Until the decisive ballot
no one knew which Of the several candi-
dates the boss intended to nominate. He
divided the San Francisco delegation with
considerable impartiality. He permitted
each candidate to show what strength he
could, making the decisive delegation wait
upon developments. Finding, or letting
the several aspirants find. that no one could
succeed without his aid, he threw votes
enough to Pond TO secure his nomination.
The ticket thus comes before the people
Handicapped with the Buckley influence
No one probably knows what concessions
Mr.. Pond made to secure Buckley's sup
port, but the public will not be deceived by
any representation that MIR. Pond obtained
the nomination without making some con-
ces>ionS.
From a political point Of view the Demo-
cratic Convention is failure. From first
to last it was under a leadership that has
already brought the party into disrepute.
The crack of the Eromjner whip frightened
Stephen NJ. White from a position which,
if it had been maintained, would almost
certainly have been the source of a grand
itbuldl IhUftIHtut' We w INV SuPpOSO
that Mr.. White was driven from his po-
stion by personal considerations, but by the
fear that if he persisted the Examiner in
fluence would be lost 10 the general tieket.
Mr.. White thus threw away the OppoT-
unity OF his life. Had he carried his res0-
luton and come before the people as an
exponent of the idea that neither money
nor cooperative influence shall in future
elect our Senators he would have carried
the State with him. The Republicans
might have saved their State ticket, but
their chances of the Legislature on such an
issue would not have been worth consider
ing. For long time the people have been
asking for a voice in the election of
United States Senators. They are tired of
seeing seats in that body auctioned off to
the highest bidders. Mr.. White proposed
to meet the popular demand, but he shrank
from the responsibility.
A more resolute leader will be found in
the near future

THE NEW AProRr1oNMENr

Dispatches from Washington state that
new apportionmen: bill will probably be
introduced at this session of Congress fix
ing the ratio of representation in the House
at 10000. Under the present apportion-
ment. which was fixed in 1881, the ratio of
members to population is as one to 154 900.
and the total number of members, includ-
ing delegates from the Territories, is 1873
The feeling at Washington is that larger
body than this is hard to handle and that
the number of members should not be in
creased much over $50.
They take a different view in Europe
The British Parliament contains $40 mem
bers, which is one for every $1,000 inhabit-
tants, but as only one person out of six in
Great Britain exercises the suffrage each
member really represents constituency
casting an average of 500 votes. The pres
ent French Chamber of Deputies comprises
5S4 members. or one for every 10000 souls.
The present Italian Chamber contains sos
members, who are chosen on the ratio of
one member to every 10000 inhabitants.
In practice large proportion Of members

ally absent; our method Of sending a Ser

The practical business OF legislation is
easier conducted in a small body than in
large one. At Washington even our COM

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

1t appears that the Nicaragua Canal Com
pany is prosecuting its work with vigor. II
has acquired the large plant which was
used by Slaven Of this city on the Panama
Canal, and has further contracted in Scot
land for a new set of dredgers of unusual
size and power. These will be set to work
on the first section OF the canal, from Grey
town to the Arroyo de las Cascades. In the
meantime the engineering operations at the
mouth of the San Carlos have been pushed
so energetically that the depth Of water at
the embOuchure is said to have been
doubled already Mr.. Menocal's estimate
was that the canal could be built in six
years; at the rate the work is being ad-
vanced vessels will pass through the canal
before 1885, if no unforeseen obstacles retard
the cutting of the section from Rio Laias to
Brito on the Pacific.
The completion of this work will be a
guarantee for peace in Central America.
Two of the States of that acknowledgements
and Costa Rica-will be bound over to keep
the peace by the quasi certainty that hos
tilities would interrupt navigation on the
canal, which would render American inter-
ference necessary. The Central Americans
Will think twice about drawing their ma
chetes if the demonstration is to bring down
upon them the wrath of Uncle Sam. But
before then, it is to be hoped that union Of
the five States will put an end to interstate
warfare.
We observe in certain quarters DISPOSE
ti0n to deride the Panama Canal as a
chmerical adventure, which was sure to
end in failure. This is undoubtedly an er-
roneous view of the subject. Enterprises
of the magnitude of the Panama Canal
usually encounter backsets sbefore they
finally succeed. 1t seems plain that NJ. de
Lesseps underestimate the obstacles he
had TO overcome and the cost of the works
lie undertook to accomplish. His COM
pany broke down before 1t completed its
task. But this does not by any means i'm
ply that the task was impossible, or that
it will not be resumed by some new COM
pany and carried forward to completion.
The opening of the Nicaragua Canal will
pr obably put new life into the rival enter
prise and lead to its resurrection.
Canals between seas are always slow of
construction. They are costly, aud the
actual outlay which they involve always
exceeds the estimates. The SueZ Canal
was opened - after fashion by the
PtOlemies, and reopened by the Moslems
after the conquest of Egypt, but it was not
till 1868 that it actually became an artery
of commerce. A beginning of work on the
canal at Corinth was made with Phpnician
money in the days of Carthage; Nero did
some digging on the lines they had traced :;
but the canal is not fully completed yet.
We may hore with some confidence that
the Nicaragua Canal win not be delayed
quite so long, and that the twentieth cen
tury will find it in successful operation.

IN DISGRACE.


A Direct Descendant of Henry Clay Com
mits Forgery.
Hume Clay, direct descendant of Henry
Clay, member of one of the best and m ost
aristocratc families of the State, and one
of the most highly respected young men of
the State, is missing from his home at
Paris, in Bourbon County, and the heads of
many of the leading families in Kentucky
are bowed at the disgrace laid at his door
in the shape of fOrgeries covering 100000
A special from Paris to-day says that it is
probable that the amounts will far exceed
100000.
A statement from Winchester is that he
forged the name of his grandfather, Mat
thew Hume, to the amount of SCI, 900, on
the banks in that city. In this city he
forged the same name to three notes on the
Bourbon Bank for S7700, and one on the
Northern for $4,000 1t is also stated that
one OF the Lexington banks was caught for
S25,OO0 and If this be true the total amount
so far is S97.700.
1t is stated that young Clay lost $4,000 in
the Winchester land boom last spring and
also lost money in other investments. When
shown the notes yesterday the elder Hume
said he had not signed them and never
signed note Tor his grandson. Mr.. Hume
lives near Stony Point. 1t is estimated that
Hume is worth half million dollars.
Hume Clay, being his fayorite grandson, it
hdo uhuelSIoou tldt lie NOulu inherit most
of the estate. Mr.. Hume is about 80 years
OF age
The bankers of Paris all agree that the
names to the notes were the best forgeries
they ever saw ana would have paid them
without hesitancy. The last heard of CLAW
was when he left Chicago a week ago and
went up to Shreveport, n. Y, and there ali
trace of him was lost. He said there that he
was doctor from Marysville. 1t is sup
posed that he has gone to Mexico as that is

MOTIVES.

The young man from San Joaquin County
who became somewhat known to the pub
lie through house-to-house CANVASS for
Congress some years ago had something to
say in the Democratic Convention this wear
about motives. The motives of man are
known only to himself. The public form
their opinion of mans motives by what
they know of him and by circumstances
under which special act is committed
When Mr.. Budd announced his belief that
the motives OF the Examiner in driving Mr.
White from the Senatorial fight were good,
the convention Kissed the sentiment and
the speaker for introducing it. They did
not want person who had presumably
arrived at years of discretion to express
such belief. The Budd intelligence was
not held to be Of character which might
D impose Its views upon persons OF ordinary
Intelligence when It's views clashed with
those OF nine-tenths of the persons adj
dressed. a man who forces his way into
strange house in the night with no reason
apparent why he should do SO NAV be ac-
tuated by good motives, but the public YER
Dict will be against him; at least. until he
makes his motives clear.
