There will be more than thousanu
teachers in attendance at the next session
az the Teachers Assembly at Morehead
CIV from this State, as well as many from
Virginia and South Carolina. Among the
prominent men who will deliver addresses
are w. 4. Harris, United States Commis,,
sioner of Education, and jerome Allen, OF
New York, an eminent specialist. An eau;
catiopal exposition, IN which nearly an
the colleges and schools IN the state VIII

SWORN IN.
The railway commissioners were sworn
in at noon to-day in the Supreme-Couft
room by Associate-Justice Avery. Inc
commissioners went at once about the
business of electine CLERK, there pe'ng
about sixty applicants for that position.
Late this afternoon j. q. Brown. OF MT.
Airy. Surry county, was elected clerk. he
was assistant TO the principal clerk OF the
last House of Representatives.
THAT DECISION AGAIN.
The Supreme Court holds that the
charter of q railway company is CLASSIFIED
as private corporation. The court does
not hold that railways are not subject 10
legislative regulation, nor does 1t intimate
that the railway commissioners cannot
look into their books and regulate thelr
rates of fare and freight. The connis-
sion has these powers. ,-.
The revenue collections for this dlstrlct
during March were 5000.

Good DOcrrina.


The decision of the Supreme Court of
the United States in the Texas case re-
ported in the DISPATCH Of Tuesday con-
tains sound doctrine. especially as coming
from court composed so largely Of Re-
publican loose-constructionists of the
Federal Constitution. In its opinion the
Court says:
"It IL unnecessary TO enter upon an examfna-
zion of tho rullngs in the different States upon
the question whether statute duly approved
and enrolled can be impeached by resort 20 the
journals Of the Legislature or other evidence for
the purpose OF establishing that IL was not pass
ed ia the manner prescribed by the State Constl-
tuition. The courts Of the United States necessa-
rily adopt tho adjudication Of the State courts on
the subject"
The same ruling would apply TO the GER
tifcstes from the various States intended
20 show that the Thirteenth. Fourteenth,
and Fifteenth amendments to the Federal
Constitution had been ratified. The &C
tion OF the Legislature thus certified the
Supreme Court would not allow to be i'm
peached in that court. The records Of the
legislative department Of each State
would be held to import absolute verify,
just as the record of the Supreme Court
imports absolute verify. There's sort of
saving clause wherein ii is intimated that
the proceedings in the case before the
court did not relate TO revolutionary Chat
is 10 say, "robel") records. We don't
know why this exception was made. Any
how, the opinion, we repeat. is sound one.
BY the way, this decision indicates pref
ty clearly, we judge, what viii be the de-
cision of the Supreme Court In the Nc
ksLrY-tarif suits. II viii be, TO use tho
words Of that court in the Texas case, that
"a statute duly approved and enrolled "
caaaot "be impeached by resort to the
journals of the Legislature or other evil
dence for the purpose of establishing that
II was not passed in the manner prescribed
by the Federal Constitution"

suggestion that as there are war-clouds

"The chances are that thc Italian Government

The tall in the price OF sugar is an object
lesson for the people Of this country. They
know that the sugar which sold few days
ago at seven cents now sells at five cents
per pound. and that this fall in the price
Of one OF the necessaries of life is owing TO
the fact that the amount Of the tariff on
sugar is no longer what ii was previous

Who rules in this town.
Depends on the question up.
The lamp-chimney ques-
tion-what sort do you break ?
Whatever sort your dealer
deals in.
How, do you think, he
selects his chimneys?
He buys those that cost him
least; he can get the regular
price for them; and the faster
they break the more he sells.
That's how he reasons.
Tell him you want Mac
beth's "pearl top" or "pearl
glass;" tough glass, transpar-
ent, clear, not foggy, fine, Of
right shape and uniform. Tell
him you'll pay him a nickel
more a piece, and that will
cover his extra costs twice
over. Tell him you don't pro-
pose to break any more. Try
your hand at ruling.

New YORK, Aug. 27.--James Il. Lyon
has brought suit against Senator William
ii. Stewart OF Nevada for 81. 900. 900
damages. The suit grows out of compli-
cations over mining deals, among the
properties concerned being the Emma
mine oil Utah. Lyon asserts that Stew
art, while acting as his attorney. CON
splred with T. W. Parke aud Others to de-
prive him Of his mining rights. Stewart,
he alleges, made statements to him re-
garding the property which led him to
dispose of his holdings for 5000. 900,
while Stewart realized 81. 900. 900 by the
deal. The bill goes into the details of the
matter at great length.
Senator Stewart denies all the allega'
tons of fraud and conspiracy and charges
