VIOLATIONS OF THE INTERSTATE LAW.

An interesting case, involving the con-
struction of portion of that voluminous,
though useless, statute known as the inter
state commerce law, will be tried in Oc-
tober The arrest of ID. B. MARTIN, gen
eral passenger agent of the Cleveland
Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis railway,
occurred on Angus. 10, and he is charged
with giving free transportation to three
members of party OF thirty who went
from Cleveland over his line to the meet
ing of National Educational association, in
San Francisco, in July, 1855. 1t seemed a
little strange that so long a time should
have elapsed between the alleged infrac-
ton Of the law and the arrest: but it now
transpires that the facts in the case were
''given away'' by a discharged employee
OF the company, which causes the
Raiiiuay Agc to remark that if the
motive of the informer was the gratifica-
ton of his malice, it suggests the thought
that the testimony OF man of such chara-
ter may not be entirely reliable. OF course,
tie entire facts will be developed at the
trial 1t is more than probable that the
free tickets were given as charged, and if
so, they We're probably given in lieu of the
payment of commissions, or salary, to the
parties who managed the excursion-who
sold the tickets. The Age says: at may
perhaps be- fair question whether it is not
as well to pay commissions to school teach

haven't received it, so where is it! 1t has
been Invested in English ships and French
factories and Russian railroads. This fab
ulous sum has been driven abroad to be in

lican policy of sending out more than we

This is what is meant by q favorable

Mr.. BLAINE is pleased when our exports
exceed our improvisation our country is be-
ing drained of its surplus wealth. When we
send away much and receive little in return
the protectionist is delighted, for he sup
poses we shall receive the balance in coin.

to pay for our exports in single year.
what the protectoinist hasn't learned yet is
that all foreign trade is simply barter, ex-
change or reciprocity. Imports are the pay
for exports, and coin is hardly used at all,
MIR. BLAINE is willing to trade purely on
a ''reciprocity'' basis, that is, he is willing
to trade with any nation that will trade
with us. How it would be possible for
US to trade with any country unlt So
that country also traded with US, directly
or through other nations, is not clear. But

Since 1877, our exports to Great Britain
have exceeded our imports from that coun-
try by nearly three billions of dollars. 1t
may be doubted whether every coin in
! Europe would be sufficient to make up that
balance. 1t is certain that it would take
six times the present coin of Great Britain
to pay it. What does Britain care. Her
exports TO the world outside as a whole pay
for her imports as whole, and she doesn't
care to what country her products go or
from what countries her pay returns. All
that English statesmen or merchants care
to see is that imports shall exceed exports
so that their country may become

is sent out They haven't the BLAINE idea

each year. This is what England gains
the profit she receives on her exports.
Since Britain takes from the United
S -ates more products than she sends to US
Mr. BLAINE ought to inaugurate his free
trade scheme by giving this country recip
rocity, which is only another name for free
trade with Great Britain.
The "balance of trade" is the protec-
tionist's Idol of clay. He doesn't know
what it is, but he has worshiped it so long
that he feels that it would be like losing hi:

TRANSPARENCY.

Anyone who has kept track in the past
of the Tribune wrigelings in its attempts to
straddle the political fence in Idaho, must
have been amused during the past week
Had the blear eyed son of destiny who con
ducts this chippie OF journalism been at the
Boise end in person, his dispatches could
not have been moro bitterly, frothily Re-
publican, and more outrageous and insult
ing to Democrats. Now when both con
ventions are adjourned, in steps the snave
editor-in- chief with his little oiling can and
proceeds to straddle the fence again, saw
ing both the tickets are good, and the Dem
Gratis are not all bad, and lot Of other
kindred hog wash. The Idaho Democrat

on which Tribune principles are inscribed.
should petition his Maker to have his eve
sight e-adiusted on the question of politics
in Idaho. The Tribune to borrow one of its
own borrowed expressions is neither fish
nor flesh but altogether foul

However, 1.-THE interstate conference act
is very explicit in declaring
that no common carrier shall,
directly or Indirectly, by any special rate,
rebate, drawback or other device, charge,
demand, collect or receive from any person
or persons greater or less compensation"
than from any other persons s'for a like and
contemporaneous service, y etc. The
penalty for violation under the amended
law is fine not to exceed 5000 for each
offense and also Imprisonment in the peni-
Tertiary for term not exceeding two years,
but as the Imprisonment penalty was not
enacted until after the date Of the alleged
offense it would not apply in this case.
Without, of course, having any knowledge
of the facts in the case in question we may
add that if Mr. MARTIN has been guilty of
violation of law in the matter charged, it is
not unlikely that other general passenger
agents hearts may also be aching in con-
temptation CT the possibilities"

IS HE A MIsFIT DEMOCRAT?

How it must thrill the paunchy bosom of
that true, tried and valiant Democrat-the
business manager of the yribune--to hear
the clash of contending arms that resounds
in these days from over the Idaho border!
How like an old cavalry horse, that from
his stable sees passing regiment of dra-
goons, must he champ and neigh and long
to break over the Republican high board
fence that keeps him from Joining in the
martial array How the memory of old
campfires and war songs must come
thronging over him as he hears a battle
raging so close to his own doors, in which
the only war cry raised are those of De-
mocracy and Republication How his eve
must have flashed, his cheek burned, his lin
curled, his bosom heayed, his brow furled,
and his fist been ever ready for the knoc1
down blow" when he read in his own parer

THE BALANCE OF TRADE.

MIR. BLAINE treated Republican mass
meeting the other night to statement that
this country ''grew and fourished with
protection" As he omitted to state, how
ever, that the country ''grew and flour
ished" twice faster under free trade than
under protection, the point of his state
ment as protectionst argument is not
apparent.
HENRY GEORGE has shown, with felici-
tous irony, that our prosperity has been
due to theatre going, and he has proved az
this far more effectively than Nh. BLAINE
has proved that our prosperity has been
due to protection. Nor did MIR GEORGE
have to falsify history to make out his
case, he stated, perhaps withless rhetorical
flourish, but with much greater historical
accuracy, certain facts about theatres and
their connection with prosperity, that
carry his avowed sophistry far ahead of
MIR. BLAINE's foolish argument that pros
perity is due to protection.
Mr.. BLAINE speaks mainly of favor
able balance of trade" by which he
means that if we send out more goods than
we bring in, there will be balance due
which we shall receive in money, and thus
we shall grow rich.
| If we really received this balance in
coin, there would be no objection to ex
porting more than we import; but the coin
! does not come to make up favorable sbal-
ance of trade" In the last fifteen years
the exports from the United States have
exceeded the imports by Sl,6s1, $50, $50, q
sum nearly four times as great as the total
circulating coin of the United States, as
given by the Bankers Ndgdsiic. 1t would
have taken half the coin in Europe to have
made up this balance; and the fact that oul
gold and silver coin money has simply KEEP,
pace with the increase of our population
is proof positive that this immense
sum has not come into the country
in the form of gold and silver coin What
has become of this excess of exports ovel
importss The custom house reports show
that we have exported more than we have
imported, and the amount of coin in the
country shows that we have not received

Mr.. John H. Rumel. JUNIOR, was seen
behind the teller's wicket at the Deseret

the rolls of gold and bundles of bank bills
of which he is so soon to take an adieu.

When his bonds are approved Mr.. Rumel
has only TO receive his commission from
the governor, so it would look as though
there were no further obstacle to his taking
his seat. All the same we advise him to see
that Frank Armstrong signs his full name
OF "Francis," and that Mr. Mccormick,
spells out the "Willianl" in toto, or there is
no knowing what grave complications the
desperate Liberals will evolve out of the
matter.

An air of Boston round her
figure slight, a forehead high.
An earnest look, clear grey eye,
And so for her came to sigh.
And wise aud charming found her.
But rs to press my suit came
Full oft She smothored all my flame
By asking curious questions,
The wrongs OF woman, The state. and land,
What social changes Ibsen planned,
She'd ask me to discuss ois-hand-
And give her my suggestions.
Did agree with Henry George?
Would selfish capital dsgorge
The share that toll demanded?
How could the INDECENT be fed?
Should criminals be allowed to wed?
DID tariffs raise the price of bread?
She begged me to re candid.
And, when the aae at last had gained
The highest point to be attained
BY growth or revolution,
What would the last great victory be-
The final goal that men should see?
What did Utopian mean foc me-
The end OF evolution!
And as heard grew more dazed.
Until at last, my courage raised
