Yes. It's n case in Point.

New York Herald.
Andrew Carnegie and his partners are
among the chief ben, ficaries of the ex-
listing tariff. Upon pretense of "protec-
ton to American industry" congress has
legislsted enormous wealth out of the
pockets of the American people into Mr..
Carnegie's pocket.
By virtue of unjust laws enacted in the
interest of Mr.. Carnegie's class he is able
to levy tax Of his own upon all who are
in any way served by iron and STEEL
which is TO say upon all the people in the
United States.
This private tax yields Mr.. Carnegie an
income every year which is an enormous
fortune in itself. The plea upon which
he and his class are thus permitted to tax
all the people for their own private bene-
fit is that they may be able out of the
tribute to pay higher wages to their
workmen.
Mr. Carnegie has not at any time shared
his spoil in this way with his men. On
the contrary, ! is constant effort has been
to force down wages in order that he
might live the more sumptuously and give
more ostentatiously TO public institutions
which serve to exslt his name, and his
case IS typical.
Just now MIR. Cs-negie's firm is Insist
ing upon a further reduction of 80 per
cent in the wages of some of its men.
and as the men fail to see any "protec-
ton" for themselves in the arrangement
they threaten to strike.
With some of the money drawn from
the people under the tariff laws the firm
is terrifying its works. Il is reported to
be running hot water pipes from it's boil
ers to the bsrricsde surrounding its works
and arranging to scald the workmen if
they approach too near. These bounty
fed fsvorites treat resistance to wage re-
duction as war, and adopt a mode of
fighting too cruel to be tolerated by any
civilized nation in actu Al warfare.
The facts tell their own story. What
protection has done for MIR. Carnegie and
his class is evident enough. What it has
done for the workmen who serve them,
except in the way of oppression and i'm
poverishment, nobody can point out be-
cause nobody can discover.
What do the workingmen of the coun-
try think of q system which operates in
such fashion? What do honest minds
think of itf

The Carthage Republican in comment
ng on the possibility of Congressman
Ben I. Cable being selected chairman of
the democratic national committee, saws:
"Mr. Cable has come rapidly into prom
inence as democratic leader and msne-
ger, and there is little doubt that he
would fill the position of chairman with
ability and industry. 1t has been intima>
ted in other directions that he would
probably not wish denomination for
congress. His wishes in that regard will
no doubt he made known definitely in
due time 1t goes with saying that he

There was Il certain disadvantage to his
passenger in the knowledge which Pari-
sian cab driver had of English literature.
In Paris-where many streets are named
after famous literary. men, French and
foreign-a passenger called a cabman and
asked to be taken to the Rue Milton.
The cabman drove long distance, and
then deposited his passenger, who found
upon alighting that he was in the Rue
Byron at the opposite extremity of the
city!
The passenger expressed his mind vigor-
ously as to the stupidity Of cabmen in gen
eral and of the one whom he addressed in
particular.
Just a little mistake in the poet, sir.
that's all, said the cabman calmly, and
drove the passenger back to the Rue Mil

A snake usually seizes a frog by the hind
leg, but should it be taken by the middle
of the body it turns the frog around, bv
deXtrous movements of its jaws, till the
head comes to be directed toward the
snake, when it is swallowed head foremost.
1t is swallowed whole, and at first sight it
might seem an impossible thing for a
snake to swallow creature much larger
and thicker than it's own whole head and
neck. The fact is, that a serpent does not
so much swallow its prey as slowly drag
itself over the creature it devours, being
enabled so to do by the elasticity of it's
skin, and the extraordinary loose way in
which the bones of its head. especially its
teeth bearing bones, are connected to-
gether
The two halves of the lower jaw, instead
OF being, as in most animals, tightly bound
together in front, can be stretched very far
apart. Those bones also which compose
the upper jaw can be widely separated,
and also separately moved, so that while
the frog is tightly held by some of the toot h
bearing bones, others can withdraw from
their first hold and again implant their
teeth farther on. Thus by degrees the
frog is drawn within the gullet, or rather
the snake draws itself over it, and so en-
CULTS the frog
Even after the frog has passed down into
the snakes stomach its position is for a
time externally visible by the local en-
largcment. Digestion, however. takes
place very rapidly. The frog generally re-
mains alive, not only while being eaten,
but for short time after being swallowed.

formed according to the number OF
Inhabitants, which means that the
number of inhabitants in each district
shall be as nearly equal as practicable
with the number in the other districts in
the same county. having due regard TO
the compactness Of the districts.
s. Sec. 5, Art. ~, prohibits the
division of assembly districts in the
formation of senate districts. Thus the
assembly district is constituted the tel
ritorial unit of the senate district.
Hence, until the assembly districts are
formed no intelligent superintendent of
the state into Senate districts can be
made. Senate d stricts must consist of
convenient contiguous districts. They
must also be formed according to the
number of inhabitants" Ste opinion
by Mr.. Justice Pinney.
9. The court finds in the constitution
no limitation upon the power of the
legislature to number the Senate dis
tricts as it sees fit.
10. This decision does not impeach
the validity of acts otherwise valid of a
legislature elected under an invalid leg
islative aprortionment statute. Neither
is the jurisdiction of the court affected,
nor the exercise thereof embarrassed,
by the fact that his decision may leave
the state without valid legislative APP
portionment law, and hence without
any law for the election of another
legislature. The governor lnay convene
the present legislature, if he thinks
proper, and when so convened there
can be no doubt of its power to enact a
valid legislative apportionment law.
II. For the foregoing reasons the
motion to dismiss the information or
complaint is denied, and the secretary is
allowed twenty days to make answer
thereto as he may be advised.

SADSNpCNs iut Jus an apprehension
that be will fail in the le; St IN meeting
the present emergency or to take such
measures as in bis wisdom seems best
TO give full effect to the constitution
and the laws.
A DELIBERATE VIOLATION.
The formation of some of the senate
districts in this act. particularly the
Ninth and Twenty-eighth. as well as
some of the assembly districts, seems to
be indicative of studied and deliberate
disregard of the constitutional require
ments rather than of fair and earnest
attempt to conform to or comply with
them; and the very great disproportion
/ in the number of inhabitants in certain
assembly districts mentioned in the
opinion of the chief justice, must, it
seems to me, be regarded as in violation
OF the mandate of the constitution to
apportion members of the assembly
according to inhabitants " There is
no doubt wide distinction between the
exercise of a fair, just anu necessary
discretion within the rules of constitu-
tional appOrtiOnment and a gross de-
parture and manifest abandonment and
defiance of them, between discretion
within certain limits and for certain
ends and an open, obvious and palpable
violation of them. It is plain that by
disregarding them, namely, that which
requires appOrtlOnment to be accord
ing to inhabitants and those which
require assembly districts to ''be as
compact form as practicable" and that
senate districts be formed of convent
ent contiguous territory" The right of
representation of local constituencies
may be grossly violated and particularly
in the formation of Senate districts,
inasmuch as no assembly district can
be divided for that purpose; but whether
this court can declare an act of appOr-
tiOnment void in such cases is a question
not material to the decision of this case
and which will require further discus
sion and consideration, and need not be
now determined.
The superintendent of the state into
senate and assembly districts according
to inhabitants Is a task no doubt of
difficulty and delicacy, aud while q
liberal margin is necessarily allowable
for the exercise of wise and Just dis
tinction so that the apportionment will
be practically just and proportionate
the end designed to be attained by the
constitutional limitations on the power
of the Legislature, vet the last is not so
intrnsicallY difficult but that fair and
Just result may be readily reached in
accord with these limitations, against
which 10 well grounded complaint can
be made.
