VIZ have presented to the people
an estimate of the cost of a free

sufficient interest in the project to
follow up the scheme and see that it
is carried out, We shal! have to ac-
knowledge that they are either very
indifferent as to their own interests,
or that we have been laboring under
a great mistake regarding the i'm
portance Of the Boone and Galloway
county trade. When merchants are
unwilling to invest S. a month to in
crease the trade of the town $780,
900 we should cease to ask the ques-

THE aevENuE-cUTTER RUSH.
She lwnl Probably Not Leave for Berinp
Sea as Ordered.
IBy telegraph to the Dispatch.


WASHINGTON, D. O., May 12.-Althougb
the commander of the revenue-cutter Rush,
now at San Francisco, was ordered to have
the vessel prepared to start on her regular
cruise to Boring Sea by the 14th instant il
is not believed that she will sail on that
day. The final instructions to the CON-
mander of the cutter in regard to dealing
with persons found illicitly sealing in
Berlng Sea have, it is said. not been sent
to him, and il is understood that the mem
bers of the Cabinet now In Washington are
waiting for the return of the President and
the other members of the Cabinet who are
with him before deciding just what the
nature of the instructions are to be. The
sealing season begins about the LIST of
June. and il has been the practice TO have
the cutters in Bering Sea when it opens.
The fact that several of the persons who
are to 90 on the Rush have not vet left
their homes for San Francisco Is also an
other evidence that tends 10 the belief
that the vessel will not sail on the 18th.
Among those who are TO 60 on the cutter
are Special-Agent Nettleton and wife.
Agent Williams, who will supervise the
operations of the North American Com
mercial Company at the seal islands: Mr..
j. Stanley Brown, of Ohio, who goes as an
agent of the Treasury Department to Sc
cure information concerning the seals, and
Mr. Milton Barnes, who has been recently
appointed by Secretary Foster as q special
agent under Mr.. Williams and whose duty
IL will be 10 keep track of and report to
the department certain matters of detail
connected with the customs service.

VIRGINIA AND THE FAIR.
General Groner Says the state VIII Make
Fine Exhibit at Chicago.

General V.D. Groner isa busy man nova
days. Not only has no his private interests
to look after, bat he is also the chairman
of the Committee on Tariff and Transpor-
tation Of the Worlds Fair, is member of
the Committee on Ceremonies, and is 10
have direct charge of the display at Hamp-
ton Roads, which is to be feature of the
Exposition year. Naturally enough with
all these matters he is not giving that at
tention TO politics which Is his wont, and
when Post reporter met him at the Eb-
bitt House, Washington, Monday night,
he said that he really did not know what
was going on politically in Virginia.
AS O matter Of fact" he added, there
is really nothing going on now. except
that the local politicians are interested in
the county elections which take place this
month"
But General Groner is filed up TO the
brim with enthusiasm at the prospects for
the great fair. ut is no longer" he said
"a question of success, but how grand and
magnificent that success is to be. We have
adjusted all our differences, and there is
now absolutely no friction anywhere that
cannot be removed. In the case of Miss
CouZins, think the ladies have acted
rightly, but of course you know that
Miss Couzins has taken her case to the
courts"
what is Virginia going to do in the way
of an exhibit"
My State is showing a great deal of in
terest in the fair, and will make a hand
some exhibit. The people are talking
about it In every county in the South
west. and very soon delegates will be
elected to convention where steps will
be taken TO prepare proper exhibit. The
Governor is in thorough accord with this
sentiment, and he will recommend to the
Legislature an appropriation. What
amount Will be appropriated Is, Of course
70 be determined when the Legislature
meets. 1t will not do, however, to restrict
the sum. Virginia has too much to be
proud of In its great mineral wealth To
keep Its light under a bushel. and fine
showing at Chicago, such as we can make
will attract thousands and thousands OF
dollars. and O class of emigration such as
we need.
I'VE propose to try and have the Vir-
GINA, West Virginia. and North Carolina
buildings close together at the fair, so a.
to enable the Chesapeake and Ohio and the
Richmond and Danyille systems, which
run through those States. to make a con.
nected exhibit. These roads have already
begun to prepare for a magnificent show.

that Virginia will take every advantage Of
this opportunity, the finest that will be
presented to her tor the next fifty years

Notable penis,ons.


On Monday the United States Supreme
Court rendered several interesting and
important decisions notably one in
volying constitutional question. Said
that high tribunal: "The Court holds that
there is nothing In the law Of the State of
New York excluding citizens Of the Afri-
can race from jurIes.n These words mean
that the constitutional provision on the
subject applies to States and not to midi
vidual persons. The State of New York has
no law excluding negroes from juries.
Therefore, holds the Court, that provision
il not violated even by the exclusion OF
negroes from juries by persons filing the
several Offices of the State.
But the court went on TO say that ii ne
groes had been excluded from juries be-
cause they were negroes, the question
ought to have been raised in the State
court. In other words. 1t was too late to
raise that question at all. We do not like
this decision so well as the one first above
mentioned; for it implies that ifnegroes had
"a matter Of fact" been excluded from
juries in New York because of their race,
and the question had been raised and de-
cided against the negroes in the court be-
low, the Supreme Court of the United
States would have reversed the decision
and ordered new trial to be had. Such
decision would be dangerous. How would
or could the question of fact be settled
IL does not seem possible that the Supreme
Court of the United States or the highest
State court in New York could proftably
employ its time in the attempt TO decide
Alright OF to settle such questions OF fact.
II this question of fact may be raised IN
one case it may be raised In every case. and
justice be impeded TO such an extent as to
make it necessary to get rid altogether of
the fourteenth article of amendments to
the Federal Constitution. II is upon this
amendment that the two cases we have
mentioned were based.
Another very interesting case was de-
cided by the United States Supreme Court
on Monday-namely, that State law tax
ing the Pullman Car Company in Penn
sylvania in proportion TO the number OF
miles its cars run over railroads in the
whole United States cannot be. considered
en- unconstitutional regulation Of COM
merce, but Is q valid and constitutional law.
There were some exceedingly nice points
involved in this case. the decision of which
as they were decided will "give pointers p"
to the several State Legislatures of the
Union.
1t has been found next to impossible
to decide Alright and settle finally the vari-
GUS questions involved in the claim of
some State Legislatures that they had the
right to tax all property belonging to citi-
zens of those States whether it is found in
those States OF elsewhere. The decision
in the Pullman case does not touch this
particular question, but it does promise to
open up new questions akin to it in re-
mote degree.

IAN Awkward Question"

The Charlottesville Chronicle, like our
selves, cannot perceive "the fallacy"
which the Petersburg Inder-Appedi thinks
turks in the questions alluded to 10 the fol-
lowing paragraphs. We quote from the
Chronicle;
"Our esteemed contemporary Of THE RICH
N0SD DISPATCH is putting some very hard conun-
drums TO the Petersburg Iadsr-Appeal and other
Protectionist journals. One Of them is as fol-
lows: II free trade is good as between the seye-
raj States Of the Union why ought IL not to be
good between this and foreign countriesl
Another puzzling question is: II is, according
70 the Protectionist theory, good policy TO keep
up a tariff wall between this country and Mexico
and Canada. Suppose Mexico or Canada was In
corporated into the Union would that simple fact
change economic laws and make free trade be-
tween the two countries the highest wisdom?"
We cannot but think that there is a
good deal of the tariff question, or rather
the protection question, involved IN the
interrogatories which we have addressed
to our Petersburg contemporary. And
yet we are willing to concede that TO ask
such questions is not "the end of contro-
versy." For example, take the case Of
sugar. Is it possible for the people
of the United States to make all the
sugar we need in this country2-or rather
is it not certain that they could do so if
they were protected against foreign
competitionp We use annually, let us
say, three thousand millions Of
pounds-of sugar, worth well ON to-
wards hundred millions Of dollars.
Would II not contribute largely TO
the wealth Of this country if we could
produce all that sugar ourselves and keep
ct home the millions Of dollars which now
we every year send out of the country TO
pay for imported sugar? The free trade
doctrine is that all these matters adjust
themselves, that if we import sugar we
export something produced in this country
20 pay for it. May there not be some truth
In each contention? Is il not true that the
tariff question assumes O different shape
every time it comes up tor discussionf Or,
rs we might express il, there is something
Of "opportunism always involved in it,
Jet II present itself as It may.
