White CnPs-Disbnnds.
PARKERsBURG, w. Va, Aug. 30.-The
famous White Cap organization of Lin
coin county, which has for some years
been the terror of evil-doers, is a thing
of the past. While they operated, the
organization was composed of some of
the best and most law-abiding citizens
in the county. At the last term of the
circuit court, owing to what seemed an
unjustifable exercise of their power, a
dozen men were indicted by Lincoln
county grand jury. When the time
came for trial, the main prosecuting wit
ness could not be found, and although
10 case could be made against the men
without his evidence, the court held that
the organization had an existence, and
expressed Willingness to settle the mat
ter by filming two of the defendants $25
each and releasing the rest. The band
agreed to see that the fines were paid
and then the organization disbanded.

Chicago the Place.

The wisdom of the Democratic National
Committee in selecting Chicago as the
place for holding our nominating conven.
ton on June 2lst will be generally con-
coded. New York excepted, no other city
can accommodate the members of the con
yention 30 well. and. OF course, Chicago
has the advantage of New York IN central
ness Of location.
There we're two objections to Chicago
made by the DISPATCH and Others. One was
that II was greedy and wanted everything.
The other was that the fifty or sixty thou
sand people who usually attend these con-
yentions will all desire to visit Chicago IN
1888. and. therefore, would prefer to visit
some other city in 1892.
Chicago removed the first objection by
her first display of modesty. Conscious
that she had gotten bonanza when
the Worlds Fair was awarded TO her
conscious also that it would not be ad.
yisable to antagonize any other commun-
ity whilst i. was seeking a S5.00o.000 ap.
preparation from Congress, it laid no claim
70 the convention; that is to say. IL did not
come before the committee as a clamorous
claimant. No doubt some neat and quiet
work was done In its behalf, but Chicago
itself remained well in the background
and won on its merits.
The committee. comparing the accom-
modations at Chicago with those OF In
dianapolis, ST. Paul, Milwaukee, Cincin
natl, ETC.. was bound TO concede Chicago''
superiority. This decision decided al
else.

Mr.. MILLS IL no ACHILLES sulking in his

Debate on the Debt.

TheSenate yesterday unanimously passed
a resolution approving the OLooTT plan for
the settlement of the State debt. The
minute details they left to be set forth IN
bills hereafter to be proposed.
This action was at once communicated
10 the House of Delegates, but number
of members of that BODY were not pre-
pared TO vote on it forthwith. Some of
these stated that they had not studied the
matter and asked for further time to con-
slider it,
Mr.. CARDwELL left the chair and made a
thorough explanation of the resolution in
question. and gave an outline of the plan
of settlement. Among other things he
said that every Capitol officer whose du-
ties are with State finances agreed before
the plan was determined upon that the
adjustment proposed was within the net
revenues of Virginia.
There were spirited speeches. pro and
con, from several other members, and then
the pending question-upon the adoption
Of the resolution--was called and sustain
cd. Mr.. CALDWELL. however, being un-
willing that debate should be cut oil,
moved to reconsider and then another
member moved to adjourn; which motion
was carried This was WELL because I'M
doubtedly there was feeling in the House
among not a few that the friends of the
measure wished to push it through with
undue rapidity.
The subject should be thoroughly dis
cussed. 1t is better for the discussion to
take place now than hereafter. Besides, we
believe that the plan is one that will be liked
the better the better it is known. We have
heretofore urged prompt rather than hasty
action. That seems to be the idea Of the
House, too; hence many members yester-
day voted against ordering the pending
question who are heartily in favor of the
settlement.
The debate will be continued to-day.

vices of that able senator and sound Demo-
crat, Mr.. CALL, the proper committee of
the United States Senate, as was an
nounced yesterday in our telegraphic COL
umn, having decided unanimously that he
is entitled to the seat. This is an impor-
tant decision. 1t was decided as it was
because tho Senate is determined to per-
petuate Its own existence. The decision
secures a Senate at all times, but it runs
rough-shod over the Federal Constitution.
II is in effect that one branch of a State
Legislature con elect United States sena-
tor. This doctrine is Federalism run mad.

RIGHTS OF DISCREPANCIES.
Decision by the Conrt of Appeals In Favor
of Lowndes Brothers.

Decision by the Conrt OF Appeals In Favor
of Lowndes Brothers.
Oystermen in these parts. says the New
York Sun. will be much interested IN de-
cision by the Court of Appeals on Thurs
day in O case OF the town of Huntington,
L. l., against Theodore and Stanley
Lowndes, two well-known oyster fisher
men. 1t is of importance to all interested
in the planting of oysters in New York
waters and settles some questions as to
the rights of planters which have been
in dispute for years. Twenty-Five years
ago the Lowndes Brothers began plant
ing oysters in Huntington bay. They in
creased the area Of cultivation year by
year until they occupied several hundred
acres. About ten years ago the right TO
these lands under water was disputed IN
the courts. and II was decided that the
colonial patents granted to the Long Island
towns included the lands under the waters
of many of the large bays. such as Great
South pay, Shinnecock bag. and Hunting
ton bay. Because OF this decision the
town of Huntington gave notice to the
Lowndes Brothers, who were then resi-
dents of Connecticut, TO quit planting oys-
tiers in Huntington bay. They refused to
obey, and Stanley Lowndes was arrested
under law which rnakesit misdemeanor
for o nonresident to plant oysters on lands
under State waters without the consent of
the owner OF the lands. Martin j. Keogh,
representing the prisoner. demurred to the
indictment. bat the demurrer was over
ruled and Lowndes was tried and convict
ed in the Suffolk County Court of Sessions.
The General Term of the Supreme Court
affirmed tho decision. and the Long Island
oystermen rejoiced, and told other Con-
necticut oystsrmen that they had them on
the run.
Nov the Court Of Appeals knocks the
Joy out OF the Long Island men by re-
versing the conviction aud discherging the
defendant. The decision says that rights
acquired, a. were those of the Lowndes
Brothers. must be respected even by the
owners Of the fee. II is quite probable
that trouble may result between the
oysterrnen Of Long Island and Con-
necticnt through this decision. When

The rules of the House of Representa-
tives will not during the current session
DO the same as those Speaker REED admins
tered with so much rigor during the last
Congress. 1t would not profit the Demo
Gratis to force bills through the House under
eac-law to have them ali defeated in the
Republican Senate. Therefore-if this
therefore" is not unjust to them-the
Democrats of the House have not adopted
the arbitrary rules under which the House
Of Representatives of the last Congress
was governed.
