A large round tree stump came down

Rumored Negotiations for Consolida.

Rumored Negotiations for a Consolida-
dation of the Two Companies.
The old rumor that the Wilmington
City Railway Company, was negotiating
for the purchase of the Front and Union
street line, has been revived during the
last two or three days,
William Candy, president of the Will
mington City Railway Company, was
seen this morning He said there was
nothing new in the matter 1t had be sn
discussed in previous meetings of the
board Of directors. The last time was at a
meeting about six months ago.
The matter would probably be discussed
at the next meeting of the Board of Di.
rectors. Until then there was nothing
definite for publication. If anything was
decided upon, it would probably be q
lease of the Front and Union Street line,
and not purchase, at once.
George w. Bush was seen in regard to
the matter. He declared unequivocally
that there was nothing whatever in the
rumor
People along Lancaster avenue would
like to see the Front and Union street
line controlled by the Wilmington City
Company, believing that better service
would be secured thereby.
The project Of line out Maryland ave
nue., from Lancaster avenue TO the top
of the hill. has been revived by the
residents of the southwestern part
of the city. Several liberal offers
of subscription to the stock of the pro
jected llne have been made by property
owners who would be benefited, and it /.
probable that, with the present hopeful
prospects, the new project viii be carried
out
A gentleman, who is a position tc

opinion the Front street line would be
controlled b. the Wilmington City Rail

WHAT. .CA1IFoRN1ANs REQUIRE.

-. Congress has just passed a bill which the
Iresident has approved, which gives Cali
fUrnia extraordinary advantages, 1t pro-
tectS our varied fruit interest against COM
petition which was fast springing up in cheap
labor countries; and which would eventually
have broken. them down. The Republican
party favored. protection TO our industries,
bat the Democratic party advocated free
Trade. What an" immense difference it
would make to California if frnit and wine
were admitted into the Union free Of duties.
T. We.are also in a fair way to reap great adj
yautages from the cultivation of the sugar
beet. Our citizens must realize that Cali
fornia, Of all the States in the Union, would
be:most injured by free trade. by permitting
the eroNding out of nearly all of her prod
uctS from the Eastern States. And why
are we afraid0 the election Of Democrats
to Congress? Do. they not know that Cali
fgrnia must have protection? Surely they
do. ard yet It seems as If some of our people
were insane upon the free-trade hobby.
New York merchants, bankers and railroad
Companies desire free trade, for in such an
event trey would have the handling of vast
amounts Of imported merchandise. Those
Tn terests would be profted, but California
would have to raise fruit, wine and other
:i}r ducts and send them East to compete
with lew prices from various quarters The
great importing interests of the country, the
railroad interests and the producers of cot
ton wGald like free trade and probably would
profit thereby, but California surely would

send Republicans to Congress; to see to it
that they do not. vote for men who will,
When in Congress, betray them.

SOMEWHAT MIXED.

when the Examiner young man under
takes to expound constitutional law the
reader of average intelligence begins to
D.: laugh. On Saturday Colonel Markham was
Charged with ignorance Of the Federal Con-
-, stituti6n because he said that the Constitu-
ton If the United States absolutely prohib-
: its the division of State. Several exam
..pies are given, which TO the young mind Of
tire Examiners constitutional expouBder are
Conclusive of the constitutional right of
States to divide: themselves. One of these
is the following:
:: on. February 4, 1871, part of Virginia was
admitted to the Union under the name of Ken
lucky.
Now the general impression is, or has
BEEN, that the territory which afterward
became the State of Kentucky was ceded to
tie United States by the State of Virginia
with other territory from which other States
have since been framed. History is some
times incorrect, bat good many people
VIII be reluctant to believe that every time
a: northwestern State was admitted to the
Union the.eld State of Virginia was divided
In. parallel column the young editor says:
There is probably not a.country editor In the
Stale whosepaper does not circulate in at least
twenty counties. That means on the Fox princi-
PIE that every editor whe may publish anything
dispeasing TO any one of MS readers may. be
dragged the rounds OF twenty jails without an
opportunity OF producing his evidence anywhere
II this means anything II means that an
editor may be indicted in any one of the sew
eral counties in which his paper circulates.
There IS conflict, however, between the
young man of the Examiner and the State
Constitution. a portion of the ninth sec
tion of the first article of the Constitution
provides that: indictments found or in
formation laid. for publication in. news
papers shall be tried in the county where
such newspapers have their publication
office, or in the county where the party
alleged to be libeled resided at the tiuIe of
the alleged publication. unless the place of
trial shall be changed for good cause" The
Examiner man had probably heard that un-
der the old Constitution action for libel had
been Instituted in several counties and as
lsumed such to be the law at present Most
men endeavor to know something about the
law which governs their own business but
the Examiner does not seem to think even
this limited knowledge of law necessary.
The case our Inexperienced contemporary
had under consideration was that of what is
known as syndicate letters" published as
original in more than one publication. Ac-
ton in such case would lie in each county in
which one of the Syndicate letters was
published as original and in the county in
which the party alleged to be libeIed resided
at The time of publication, but in no others.

A QUESTION ANSWERED.

The Altd asks in effect if The CALL has
ever protested against the denomination of
any Republican legislators who aided the
Democrats in their raid upon the people
during the last Legislature? The answer Is
that we have repeatedly done so. We have
openly declared that while the responsibility
rested with the majority, the Republicans
who voted with the majority are to be held
individually responsible for their acts. THE
CALL sometimes shares with tie Alta the
chagrin of seeing its good advice disregarded
Men have been rewarded with nomination
who ought to have been punished. The Re-
publican State Convention poiltedly refused
to indorse the Waterman administration be-
cause of its failure to interpose the constitu-
tional check to the extravagauce of the Leg
islature. Consistency requires that mem
bers OF the Legislature who helped the ma
jority to make these extravagant appropria-
lions shall be subjected to the discipline
applied to the Governor.

HOW SENATORS ARE ELECTED.

Stephen NJ. White told his audience Friday
night how in these latter days United States
Senators are elected. Mr. Whites review
of recent political events is imperfect. He
told how he believed the senior California
Senator had been elected, but he did not
tell how he knew the junior California Sem
ator had been elected. As Mr.. White i'm
agines himself candidate for the Senate,
he had to consider the feelings of the party
managers from whom he expects support
He gauges his own character by this show
OF subseryience to the men who four years
ago conducted one of the most disgraceful
Senatorial contests that has ever taken
place in this State. The wort Mr.. White
can say is that the Republican party has
been dominated by the same influences
which have dominated the party with which
he is connected and from which he seeks
political preferment. As politician, Mr..
White had to be dumb from one side of his
mouth. As a man, he might have spoken
the truth. which no one knows better than
himself. In painting the senior Senator in
dark colors and leaving the junior Senator
out of his picture, Mr.. White virtually ad-
mitted that the evils he complains of are
shared about equally between the two par
ties. The question thus presented to the
people is one OF policies, The Legislature
to be elected in November will elect United
States Senator to succeed Mr.. Stanford. If
the Legislature is Republican it will send a
man to the Senate who will stand by the
measures the Congress just adjourned has
enacted. IL the Legislature is Democrat
1t viii send man TO the Senate whose vote
Will DO cast, il opportunity offers, to repeal
