The Farmers, | egislaturs.

The legislature, after having bean IN ses-
sion 147 days, adjourned finally yesterday.
1t is not likely that the governor will have
occasion to call it together, and it is, there
fore, pretty safe to say that the last has
been seen and heard of it.
is doubtful if there is regret anywhere
in the state that it has brought its labors to
a close. When it convened 1t promised to
do great things. and do them In short order,
and at very little cost to the tax
payers. It failed to keep its prom
ise. 1t contained some level-headed men
and a great many impractical men,
and very naturally it didn't accomplish
much. What it did won't help the state
great deal.
The fact is, there is too much lawmaking
and tinkering with the laws. The state
would be better off if the legislature didn't
Feet oftener than once in five years, ex-
cept to fix the tax rate and pass the appro =
priation bills. Many of the laws enacted
are never enforced and many others are re-
pealed or amended by the succeeding legis-
lature
No doubt there were plenty of honest, we'll
meaning men in the legislature that has
just adjourned, but the most of them knew
better what they wanted than what would
be for the best interests of the people, A good
many Of them will have an interesting time
telling their constituents why they In
creased the tax rate.

For some time past there have been two
distinct organizations among the railway
conductors of toe country. The Order of
Railway Conductors was the parent orgapi-
cation. Through some disafFection the
Brotherhood of Railway Conductors was
organized. The two orders have acted in
dependently of each other for over a year.

to effect a reunion. This, however. has AT
last been accomplished. A circular letter
has been received stating that the two or

OF the Order Of Railway Conductors.

Dishonesty poasn,t Paw.

All the balance of his life John Hoey who,
until day or two ago was the honored
president of the Adams Express Company,
will not cease to regret that in his haste
to get rich he betrayed the trust that was
reposed in him. He had won an enviable
reputation for business ssgacity. was re-
spected by all who knew him, had all the
money he needed and was at the head of
one Of the richest and most
prosperous companies in the world,
and yet he sacrificed mis- honor and made
himself an object Of contempt in his own
estimation and that of his felow-men in
order to add few hundred thousand dollars
to his already large fortune. He can never
again hold up his head among honest men.
AS he passes along the streets OF the city
where he has been accustomed to be greeted
| with respect, his former associates will
shun him and point the finger of scorn at
| him. Is he likely to get much pleasure out
| of his ill-gotten gainss viii he regard with
satisfaction the splendid house at Long
Branch upon which he spent vast fortune?
Where can he go to enjoy the money that
| is not honestly his or what can he do that
will bring him peace in his declining years ?
| And are there not others holding posii ions
| of trust who have done and are doing Just
| about what John Hoey did, thinking that
their sharp practices will not be discov-
| cred, or. il discovered, will be excusedl He
| saw a chance to make money out of a COM
pany which trusted him implicitly and he
made the most of it. He bought proper
ties and sold them to the company of which
he was an officer for many times their real
| value. He could not have done that had he
not had the confidence of the company aud
been in position to represent it. Instead
of protecting the company, as he was in
honor bound to do, he virtually robbed it.
His punishment is great, but not greater
than he deserves. He will rot be prosecuted
crimir ally, in all probability, but he would
be no worse in the eyes of honest men if he
should be convicted of robbing the COM
pany. And it is source of satisfaction
that the company dealt with him so sum-
! msrily. Its action shows a disposition to
expose dishonesty even though found in
high places.
All men in high positions caught in
shady transactions should be exposed. No
mercy whatever should be shown them.
Unless dishonest transactions, although in
volving millions of dollars, are made dis
reputable, confidence in the management Of
great corporations will lie shaken There
no more reason why trusted officer of a
| great corporation who uses his position TO
! fill his pockets dishonesty should be pro-
tected than the meanest thief All should
be treated alike.

The activity which ex-Prasldent Cleve-
land is displa ying in the campaign in New
York is aitra ting wide attention. de was
the principal speaker at the great meeting
of the democracy of Kings county Wednes-
day night, full account of which was pub
! listed in our dispatches yesterday. His
! speech was an excellent one and the fact
that full sy aopsis of it was telegraphed
over the country jusuies the conclusion
that it produced profound impression.
Mr.. Cleveland is showing qualities as
campaign orator that even his admirers did
not believe he possessed. He has
overcome many of the defects which
marked his earlier oratorical efforts
and his manner now in addressing an au-
dience is both pleasing and effective. There
never was time in his public career when
what he had to say was not worth listening
to, but recently his public addresses show
more thought and finish and produce a
deeper impression.
He is taking leading part in the New
York campaign because he appreciates to
the fullest extent HOY important it is that
the Democratic party shall be successful in
that campaign If the Democratic party
carries New York this fall it is pretty GER
tain TO carry that state in the
presidential campaign next fall, and if it
carries New York it will elect the next
President. Well informed democrats of
New York city place the majority of Mr..
Flower, the democratic candidate for gov
ernor, at Is, 900. That is a large majority
for democrat to receive in New York, but
the campaign the democrats are conducting
| IN so earnest and enthusiastic and the differ
ent democratic factions are so thoroughly
| united that il would not be surprising If
| Mr.. Flowers majority should be fully as
large as the democratic leaders expect
And what effect will large democratic
majority in New York this fall have upon
Mr.. Clevelnnds chances for getting the
democratic nomination for President? That
| is question that is receiving a great deal
| Of attention. Mr.. Cleveland's friends be-
lieve, of course, that he will get the nomi-
| nation whether the democrats are victori-
| Gus in New York or not, but it is certain
| that democratic victory would help him.
Those who are now hostile to him would be
less aggressive IN their opposition because
Alb Pdib III lHe NASLuIJ "Ou4u 10 AeCOsDLASO
| and the sentiment favorable to him would
| be greatly strengthened. Indeed, there
would be little doubt now of his being
nominated if it were not for his posi-
ton on the silver question, but
| that question may be pushed into
the background by congressional ac-
ton before the meeting of the national
convention. Mr.. Cleveland is the choice of
the eastern states, and the opposition to him
in the south and west is based wholly upon
his views upon silver. His fitness for the
presidency is admitted in all parts of the
country. and if the Democratic party deter
mines that the tariff shali be the great issue
in the presidential campaign his nomina-
ton cannot be prevented.

Evidently the commercial agencies have
not as yet devised any effective way TO get

AL. Therefore "the exact financial position
Of the Prince Of Wales" says Labouchere,
editor of the London Truth. in an article
on English Royalty" whica he contributes
to the October Forum, 'Is not known.
There have been rumors that he is greatly
in debt; but ] question their correctness.
When the prince came Of age he became
possessed Of the accommodations re-
allied during his minority from the
Duchy Of Cornwall A portion of
them was expended in the purchase Of the
Sandringham estate. and the remainder be-

The Methodist Discinline.

Editor Morning NetOs: am sorry you
gave publicity to the rawlings of some So
called Methodist preacher In Chicago
against the Methodist discipline. In behalf
of the Methodist and Episcopal churches of
the land beg that you publish the inclosed
paragraph, which is the chief object of his
rawlings The paragraph is the same in both
rituals except the phrase an italics, that is
added IN the Methodist ceremony.
THE PARAGRAPH.
81 require and charge you both. as ye
will answer in the dreadful day of judg>
ment when the secrets of all hearts shall be
disclosed, that if either of you know any
impediment why ye may not be lawfully
Joined together in matrimony, ye do now
confess it; for be ye we'll assured that SO
many as are joined together otherwise than
Gods word doth allow, are not Joined to-
gether bg God, neither is their matrimony
lawful"
Now, Mr.. Editor, am sure you will see
the injustice that would be done to both
these churches to publish the rawlings above,
and not give the paragraph to the public
that people may judge for themselves
The 'inpediment" mentioned has refer
ence to things which the laws
of God and man forbid,
but Of which the minister cannot be sup.
posed to know. The law forbids the mar
riage of near relatives. How can the min
lister be supposed TO know of the relationship
Of parties! The law forbids bigamy How
can he know whether or not tho law is being
violated! A. j. FARRELL.

The quality of the cotton now coming
into the markets is very much better than
IN the earlier part Of the season, and the
grades are gradually getting closer together
and there is less disparity between the
grades. To meet this the spot quotations
of low middling and good ordinary were
marked up $40 cent, as they have been
selling at the advanced figures for several
days. Ia fact, poor cottons are becoming
scarce. and for this reason New York re-
vised its quotations ard grades yesterday
from the standard OF the old crop to that of
the new crop.
