RATES 10 THE PACIFIC COAST.

No notice has yet been filed with
the Interstate Commerce commission
by the Santa Fe road that it intends
to reduce its second class passenger
rates to $14.75 from Missouri river
points to points on the Pacific coast.
Therefore the threatened reduction
can not be made on the 18th, the
the date fixed for it to go into oper-
alton. The officials of the road will
not admit that they have abandoned
their intention of reducing the rates.
They do admit, however, that there
may be some delay in the matter to
give their competitors another op-
portunity of coming to an agree
ment not to pay excessive commits
slons on the immigrant business.
Tremendous pressure is being ex.
erted to induce the Santa Fe to
abandon its intention of cutting the
rates.
1t is hoped that some way will be
found to prevent the reduction. If
the other roads do not conclude to
accept the Atchison's proposition,
they will probably agree upon a
proposition to submit to the Atchi-
son, which will be satisfactory to that
road. The commissioners of the
Western Passenger association have
been in session for several days, and
this has been one of the questions
under consideration. Their idea is
that the best way out of the diff
Guilty would be the establishment OF
a joint agency in New York to con
troll the immigrant business for the
roads west of the Missouri river and
by an equitable division of the traffic
remove the inducement to pay ex
cessive commissions.

SAN Francisco, June ia state
ment is published that articles of in

Atlantic railway have been prepared
in this city and will soon be filed.
1t is given out that the road will be
in process of actual construction
within 60 days, and that it will run
from San Francisco to Los Angeles,
making connection at Cramer with
the Atchison system. The distance
to Los Angeles will, it is said, be
about 4s5 miles. 1t is also given out
that the road will be constructed by
eastern capital, and that while it has
friendly relations with the Atchison,
it is an independent line. Surveys
are completed from San Francisco to

has been made from Visalia to Cra-

sides carrying the largest sowing of
alfalfa ever known in this country.
The Fritz, Ellis, Analla and other
farms of less extent promise the finest
and largest yield of fruit ever known
here, and the only fear apprehended
is the delay necessary to reach a mar
ket when the fruits are ripe. 1t is
suggested that the fruit growers In

preservation long enough to reach
the railroad, that will enable them
to gather the entire crop.-Lincoln

LATE NEWS,
ROLL on sTATEs cANvAssEp.

New York, June l3.-Up to date
the managers of Senator Hills can
vas for the presidency have not given
out any figures tending to verify
their claim that the senator has
merely an even chance at Chicago.
A national delegate from the midwin-
ter state convention yesterday can
vassed the roll of states carefully,
with these resulting totals: Total
delegates s9s, necessary to choice
(two-thirds) 500; Cleveland 452, Hill
996, Palmer As, Carlisle 35, Boies 20.
These results are arrived at by split
ting delegations, but it is believed
most of the states will vote under the
unit rule. If they do Mr.. Hill's vote
will be reduced to 215 and Cleve-
lands increased to 576, or within 22
of the requisite number. In this
event either the vote of Kentucky,
Iowa or Illinois would nominate the
ex-president, unless South Carolina
or Virginia, whose delegations are
claimed to be equally divided, should
cast their 40 votes for Hill. The nine
Cleveland men from Connecticut
prefer Hill for second choice, and
that is about the way the Hill man.
ayers figure most of the delegations.
They feel confident that if Cleveland
does not win in two ballots his
chances are destroyed. Richard
Croker, Edward Murphy and Lieu
tenant Governor Sheehan start for
Chicago Wednesday. On Thursday
the delegates leave, and on Friday at
least 200 picked braves will take
their departure. Senator Hill was at
the Hoffman house today holding
protracted conference with Lieuten-
ant Governor Sheehan and Edward
Murphy.

The Telephone and the Trolley.

The telephone. like electric propul-
sion. will soon gridiron the earth with its
wires. There can be no reason to doubt that
such will be the case. Conversation is
now readily carried on over thousand
miles Of wire. Man will not let his achieve
ments in this behalf stop where they are
now. He will not be content till the whole
land enjoys the benefit of both the tele-
phone and the electric railroad. The con-
ditions of city life have already been
changed by the electric railroads. The
conditions of rural life will be changed by
. cheap, long-distance telephone. In fact,
as there have been such inventions made
in the present century as the world had
previous to 1900 never dreamed of. so there
will be useful inventions made in the GEN.
fury soon to commence which will leave
the inventions of the present century en-
tirely "out Of sight and out of mind"
From 1901 to 1901 we call the present GEN.

Anderson and Mccormick.

At the request of the editor of the Buena
Vista Advocate the Hon. WILLIAM A. An
DERsos, of Rockbridge (who was the pa
tron Of the ANDERSON. Nc CoRMIck election
bill), has written letter to that paper,
which is published in It's last issue. ex.
planning that measure.
he states that the only material differ
ences between the present Virginia cleo
tion law and that which it supplanted are !:
~. 1t confers the power and duty Of appoint
ing the election onlcers upon an electoral board,
chosen for the purpose for each county and city
by the General Assembly; whereas the former
law vested this power "a the judges OF the county
and city courts; and,
"2. II makes II a rniedomeanor. punishable by
q nne OF not less than 800, nor more than $500.
for the members OF tlese electoral boards to
fail to appoint judges Of election for each voting
place from persons known to belong to different
political parties"
This new election law was passed upon
the Goth of October, 1884. and has been
embodied and re-enacted in the present
Code of Virginia, su bstantially.
The law got its popular title "the ASDER-
soS-McCoB,noK bill" from the fact that 1t
was the joint production of Mr.. ANDERSON
and Mr.. MARSHALL MCCORMICK of Clarke
county. IL our memory serves US cor
rectly 1t was Mr.. ANDEssoN's bill. with
amendments engrsftsd upon it on the
motion of Mr.. Mccormick.
Mr.. ANDERsoS's letter shows how hollow
and Rroundless is the complaint of MA
HONE and his neutrality-suspicious. that they
cannot get justice done them at tho ballot
box because OF this law, and concludes
with the following pungent observation;
"Ths strange thing Is that the leaders Of
party which actually attempted In 1868 aud
1859. by constitutional Inhibition, to disfran-
chise nine tenths OF the white voters OF vir-
ginia-a party which is responsible for election
frauds which disgraced its administration in
States where 1, has Welded power, and which
finally eliminated BY stealing the presidency OF
the United States, and whose leader In this
State IL himself recognized as the father Of the
tissue-ballos in virginia-should now be posing
as the champions Of pure elections and an hon.

Mother Of bishops Also.

The House of Bishops OF the Episcopal
General Convention on Friday elected
bishops for the seven newly-created mis-
sionary dioceses Of the Episcopal Church.
as follows For Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory, Rev. +. X. BnooKE. of Atchison,
Kan; Western Colorado, Rev. WILLIAM
NJ. BAHKxn, of Duluth, Mimi; Southern
Florida. Rev. w. @. GRAY, ID. D., OF Nash
Vile, Tenn; Northern Michigan, Rev.
JOSEPH II. JOHNSON, of Michigan; Spokane,

d. D., of Tacoma, Washington; Shanghai,
China, Rev. s. r. j. Horn, of Iowa;
Yeddo, Jspen. Rev. THOMAS A. TDBALL, ID.
D., of Camden. N. j. These elections were
yesterday concurred in BY the House OF
Deputies.
Dr. TDBALL, the bishop-elect OF the ia
panese Diocese. is a.native of Virginia. He
left school when very young and Joined
the Confederate army. After serving
through the war with distinction he re-
turned to Virginia and entered the Theo-
logical Seminary at Alexandra. from which
he graduated. He then became rector Of
several churches on the Eastern Shore, and
later went to st. Psul's church, Lexington.
Ky. About seven years ago he was called
to his present charge at Camden. N. ].
Last year he received call to professor
ship in the Divinity School at Philadel-
phia, but declined IT. He is examining
chaplain OF the Diocese of New Jersey. and
one of the delegates to the General Con-
vention.
DR.. TIDBALL Is about AZ years of age. and
married. He is scholar in the true sense,
and has written several books on theolo.
gical subjects that are valued highly by
Episcopaliaus.
His election suggests that Virginia has
given many bishops to the Protestant
Episcopal Church, as well as to other CON-
muaions. and not few within recent
years. OF those now living we can re-
call without much trouble Bishops WHIT
TIE and RANDOLPH, Of Virginia, of course;

DUDLEY. of Kentucky; Bishop PErEEKrN,
of West Virginia; Assistant Bishop JACK

A Monument to Pocahontas.

In all the Columbus-Dsy celebrations,
even In those held in this city. little
thought seems to have been given to the
aboriginal Inhabitants Of America.
II is quite objectionable and rather in
applicable that virginians should have for
gotten PooAHoNTAs. True, she was by no
means contemporary of COLUMBUS, but
in the school histories of the United States
only few printed pages separate her from
the great discoversr. and she typifies the
loveliest traits of the Indian maiden; while
her father, King PowHArAN. was re-
nowned IL not model chieftain OF his day.
SO far as the settlement of America by
English-speaking people is concerned.
CoLuMBus's name and discovery are al
ways followed by accounts Of the disas-
trous settlement upon Roanoke Island and
the later and successful one at James
town. The latter preceded the landing on
Plymouth Rock by thirteen years, and it
was in connection with jamestown and
the exploration of the Chickshominy river
by Captain JOHN SMITH that PocAHosTAs
comes into view as heroic figure and is
ever afterwards associated in her own
person or through her descendants with
the history of the Old Dominion.
PocAHoNTAs has suffered so much from
aspersion and neglect that We could wish
to see her name honored in monument.
The people of her blood now living in Vir-
ginia and in other States are 80 numerous
that if they were to contribute few dol
lars apiece little other help would be needed
to complete The monument fund; but W.
know of many other people who would
consider it privilege to be allowed to aid
i'll such an enterprise. Who doubts that if
PocAHosrAs had been associated with the
history Of Boston and Plymouth Rock as
she was with the history of Richmond
and jamestown she would have had
monument concentrating her rescue of
SMITH or her marriage with RoIFE or both7
Something is due, too. to that sturdy
though savage race which occupied all
of this land before our ancestors drove
them back into the western wilderness. 1t
may be doubted if they were more nu-
merous then than they are now. after the
lapse of nearly 300 years. but they made q
noble fight for their possessions, and
though defeated never could be reduced
to slavery.
The natives whom COLUMBUS met upon
the Bahamas and those whom SMITH en-
countered IN Virginia were by no means q
despicable race. And as for PocAHoNrAs,
she was princess hers was royal blood,
though royalty in these wilds of Virginia
had not the wherewithsl to make itself
magnificent as 1t does in other lands.
We are monument-building people, and
why should we not rear monument to
PooAHoSrAs9 And If it is to be built, why
should ii not be built at Richmond (where
PowHATAN had one of bis seats), especially
since the spot where the rescue of SMITH
took place cannot be precisely located
and lonely church-tower is all that is
left of Jamestown.

more votes than they can possibly hope to
get, in order to succeed in the presidential

eept the solid South. then they are doomed

The usurpation Cases.

Speaking Of the decision of the United
States Supreme Court in the Michigan
case the Baltimore Sun says:
"The attempt 10 overthrow the Michigan law
was only one Of the many attempts tho Repup-
lcan leaders have made recently 10 use what
ever Republican bias exists In any Of the courts
to snatch q political advantage. In Connecticut,
New York, Wisconsin, and other States they
have tried this snifty game. In Connecticut
they last year seated a Governor not elected.
In New York they tried 10 overthrow an appor-
tionment. In Wisconsin the Legislature has
been assembled 10 make third apportionment,
the judges having declared two apportionment
acts Of Democratic Legislature Invalid. In
Indiana tho same plan has been tried, the
scheme including the setting aside Of the Aus
tralian ballot act"
The judicial is thus encroaching upon
the legislative department of the govern
ments, State aud Federal. The people.
however, have their eyes turned towards
the courts just now.
