A cable despatch in our news Of Wednes-
day last told Of the torments suffered By the
Jews Of Poland at the hands Of beard pullers.
It appears that the Jews there generally SUBJ
nit meekly to beard pulling. though it must
often be almost intolerable But during Pass
over week many Of the Jews rose up in their
manhood and resented the outrage In the
Polish town Of LODI. the besrd-pulling miscre-
ants were 30 enrsged at the Jews for prac-
Using the noble virtue OF self-defence that
they rose in riot against them. The
assailed parties fought their assaiants.
fought till a number Of them fell in death.
They were finally restrained by the Russian
troops. but not till the enemy had learned that
they could fight, and that they were not to be
outraged with impunity. Bravo for the cour-
aeeous Jews OF Lodzl This town Of LODI is q
manufacturing town Of 10000 people. and ia
not far from tho very ancient Polish city OF
Warsaw.
Now. then. We referred last week to the re-
cent Introduction Of the abominable practice
OF board pulling and whisker pulling into this
city. practice that has appeared here since
the incoming OF tho exiled Russians. Perhaps
q dozen cases OF beard pulling have been
heard OF here. and two or three Of them have
been brought before our Judges. who. how
ever. have failed to punish the offenders as
they deserved. There has been no worse case
than that OF the Hebrew jeweller S1LBERMAN.
who has brought charge OF beard pulling
against the jewelier GRINsPAw. According to
the complaint made by SILBERMAN in the
Essex Market Police Court, he had quarrel
with GRINsPAw about money matters. and
GRINsPAw got SO enraRed that he clutched and
held Sn.BERMAN. while his lGRINsrAw's) wife

who at once ordered the arrest Of his asssilants
and held them for trial.
We do not say that the penalty for crime OF
this kind should be death by electrocution
at Sing Sing. but 1t should bs severe enough
to serve as warning to all beard pullers. who

Let Them Como Together.

On Tuesday resolutions were introduced
into the Methodist General Conference at
Omaha suggesting efforts for an organic
union OF the Northern and Southern
branches OF the Methodist Church.
In the interests OF both Methodism and
patriotism this union ought to be brought
about. The separation is geographical only.
In doctrine and Church polity there is no
organically as distinct as II they were the
churches OF distinct nationalities
In the days OF slavery Northern and
Southern Methodists held views OF that in
stitution which conflicted so radically that
it was impossible for them to keep together
peacefully in one Church organization. A
real reason for division and sufficient
cause OF dissension existed. Without
brotherly love and Christian concord they
were better apart. Each side chung tena-
ciously to its views Of negro slavery. and
whenever they met they were sure to
clash. It was wiser. therefore. for them
to establish separate households OF the
faith. though this religious dissenslon pre-
figured and doubtless encouraged tho at
tempt at political dlssension. Religious
separation was dangerous sign. but 1t
was inevitable: 1t was essential to tho har-
mony OF the whole Methodist body.
But now slavery no longer exists as a
bone Of contention and a reason for separa-
ton. North and South are bound together
in political union. They are one people,
with one country and ono sentiment OF
patriotism. The merely geographical sepa-
ration between them marks no difference In
their social condition. Both are free.
Slavery exists In neither.
1t is OF the highest Importance to the
Union OF the States that tho sepa-
ration OF Churches which recalls the un-
happy past should be healed. and that
North and South should be bound together
In Christian fellowship. Spiritual and re-
ligious harmony should accompany civil
and political harmony.
The splitting Of the Churches into North
ern and Southern branches Is anomalous In
q united country. and 1t Is dangerous. II
there were Eastern and Middle and West
ern and Pacific coast divisions simply for
convenience OF ecclesiastical administra-
ton. the case would not be 30 bad. but q
separation which only serves to perpetuate
a bygone conflict between the North and
the South Is evil altogether.

stenosraphers in tho Federal Courts.

Mr.. DAVID b. CuLBERsoN Of Texas has
introduced in the House Of Representatives
bill providing for the appointment OF
shorthand reporters by tho United states
District and Circuit Courts. In respect TO
the employment of stenographers the Fed
eral courts are behind the age, and the enact
mept OF some measure which will put them
on a level with the State courts generally
ia greatly to be desired. With very few ex-
ceptions there is no provision for the en-
ployment Of Photographic writer's in the
courts OF the United States. and when IN
these tribunals the testimony Is taken by
stenographers the work Is done at the ex-
pense OF the particular litlgants then before
the court.
Mr.. CunBERsoN's bill empowers the
Judges Of the Circuit and District Courts OF
the United States to appoint shorthand re-
porters for their respective courts when
ever. in their judgment. it will expedite the
public business to make such appointments.
The power OF removal ut will is vested IN
the Judge by whom the appointment Is
made. The compensation for each official
stenographer thus appointed is fixed at s.
for each day OF actual attendance. and IN
addition to this the stenographer is author
lied to charge for transcripts Of his min
utes furnished to persons desiring the same.
six cents for each folio Of one hundred
words. These fees are reasonable. being
less than those determined by law In many
Of the State courts.
The bill also provides that the stenog-
rapher shall file with the Clerk Of the court
his shorthand notes Of the proceedings
taken by him in each case. and declares
that the same shall be part OF the record OF
the court in the case in which they are
taken. It seem to us that this requirement
will tend greatly to cucumber the offices OF
the court clerks with material which 1t is
not really important to preserve perma-
nently. In this State the stenographer's
original notes are not required to he filed
unless tho court makes special order to
that effect; but the Code of Civil Procedure
prescribes that such notes shall be carefully
preserved by the stenographer for two
years after the trial or hearing. and at the
expiration Of that time he is at liberty to
destroy them. Under these provisions ex-
perience has shown that the rights Of liti-
giants ore adequately protected. inasmuch
as In every case Of importance the notes arc
actually written out and the testimony
thus preserved long before the two years
have elapsed.
uMr. Cu1BERsoN's bill Is amended so as
to conform to the New York law In this
respect. 1t will be improved: and Its enact
ment will tend to promote the administra-
ton Of justice In the United States courts.

NEWSPAPERS RACING.
Trains Make Nearly Sixty Miles an
Hour.


Hour.
DENVER. Col, May S.-The honor of
making fast time is no longer confined
to Eastern railway lines. This morning
the citizens of small towns along the
line of the Santa Fe and Rio Grande
roads were surprised to see two trains
fly through their towns at a rate of
speed which made the spectators dizzy
to witness. The Denver Republican
and another local paper had prepared
special editions for this MORN
ing containing writeup of the
famous Cripple Creek mining camp,
and had chartered special trains
TO carry their papers into the camp.
The Republican took the Rio Grande
and the other the Santa Fe, the former
leaving the union depot at a. m. and
the latter at $40, with trains of two
postal cars each. Both trains made
Colorado Springs, distance of seventy
five miles, in one hour and thirty min
utes with two stops. The Santa Fe
made FloriSSant, thirty-seven miles fur
Their OIL the Midland line, in one hour
and fifteen minutes, the distance being
entirely up the mountain side. and, be-
cause of the shorter distance travelled,
reached the camp two hours ahead of
its rival. The Rio Grande train reached
Florence, 80 miles from Denver, OH
time, both trains making nearly fifty
miles an hour during the run, The
mail had to go by stage from Florence
and Florissant, thirty and eighteen
miles respectively.

At one table sits an elderly man, proba-
