The following anecdote Of Daniel Web

A few days after Mr.. Webster had en-
tered Exeter academy he returned to his
boarding house one evening In a very de-
spondent mood and told his friends there
that the city boys In the academy wers
constantly laughing at him because he was
at the foot OF his class and had come from
the back woods.
The next day MIR. Nicholas Emery, who
was then an assistant tutor In the academy
urged Webster 10 think Of nothing but his
books, and added that all would yet COINS
out right.
The advice was heeded, and at the end ol
the first quarter Mr.. Emery, mastering hi'
class In line, formally took the arm d
the young Webster and marched him from
the foot 10 the extreme head.
At the end Of the second quarter, wheE
the class was mustered. Mr.. Emery said:
s'Daniel Webster. gather mp your book
and take down your cap"
The boy obeyed, and thinking that h'
was about 10 he expelled from school. wa
sorely troubled.
The teacher soon dispelled the illusion

report yourself to the teacher of the hrs

all right in the north, but great OUT
rage in the south. 1t was construed as a
deliberate attempt to suppress the colored
vote. That is, to prevent Republicans
from taking advantage of negro ig-
norance.
1t is quite probable that it was adopted
as necessary expedient to prevent the
domination of intelligent white people by
horde of ignorant blacks, condition
which no intelligent person who under
stands the situation in the south would
consider desirable, unless he was an enc
my OF his race. But it was framed with
view to constitutional provisions and
restrictions and applied alike to the white
and the colored population.
1t is little singular to an unbiased OBJ
server that some of the orators who de-
nounced the Mississippi law. yet
supported the provisions in other states
for a property qualification for voters.
But then consistency need not be expected
from stump speakers, anxious to perpetu-
ate Republican rule and more concerned
as to the voting of negroes than to the
preservation of white welfare in person
and property.
But it seems that the law works WELL
1t operates, as it should, on white and
and black. 1t bars out utterly ignorant
citizens from the ballot box. 1t secures a
more intelligent government. One of the
practical results of the change in the law
is said to be seen in the change on the
liquor question.
There is local option law in force in
Mississippi. The saloon element had a
controlling force in elections under the
old voting syitem because of its infiu-
ence over the worst classes of citizens.
Under the workings of the educational
qualification large number of those
classes have been kept from the polls.
Out Of ten counties which were by popu-
lar vote 'swet'' counties, seven have gone
''dry." This has made such marked
difference in public affairs that the new
law is hailed with pleasure by the most
advanced citizens.
The question of the limitation of the
suffrage is likely to be agitated more and
more. as population increases and the
probability of women being permitted to
vote becomes greater. That everybody
who deposits ballot for public purpose
ought to be able to understand its purport
and sense the responsibility of casting it.
no reasonable being will deny. Intelli-
gence ought to rule in a well ordered gov
eminent, and some qualification as re-
striction upon universal suffrage is likely
to be generally imposed before many
years shall pass away.

The Great Far.

The great Worlds Fair was opened on
Monday, President Grover Cleveland pres
sing the magic button by which was set
in motion the powerful and complicated
machinery in the immense buildings that
have been erected to display the grandest
exhibition ever given on this globe.
Full particulars of the ceremonies at
tending the opening viii be found in
THE HERALD's dispatches from Chicago,
and particulars of the worlds display
will appear from day to day in our col
umns, until our readers have been made
familiar with its chief features and as
many details as will be of general interest.
These will be furnished by regular press
dispatches and by special correspond
ence.
The Importance Of this great aggrega-
ticn OF the worlds ingenuity, skill and
invention cannot be estimated, neither
can its value be computed nor the glory
OF it be described in words. 1t will be a
grand university of knowledge with an
almost endless series of object lessons. 1t
will be something never to be forgotten.
There has been nothing to be compared
with it before, because the world has adj
vanced SO rapidly and wonderfully since
the first project of this kind was brought
forth by ALBERT the Good of England
and because the facilities for such an ex-
position were never so vast and varied as
in this year Of grace eighteen hundred
and ninety three. The world must surely
be the better as it will certainly be the
wiser for this great exhibition.
Stories have been circulated to the effect
that it will cost from one to eleven dollars
for each person to visit all the depart
ments in all the different buildings of the
Worlds fair. The authorities pronounce
these rumors to be utterly false, and an
nounce that the admission fee of fifty
cents will entitle the visitor to see all that
there is in every one OF the buildings and
departments of the exposition.
The United States may well be proud Of
this magnificent enterprise. 1t will give
the peoples abroad better estimate OF
the greatness, power, wealth and intelli-
gence of this glorious country. 1t will
help to diffuse knowledge OF the pro-
ducts and the sentiments ofaIl the nations
OF the earth and aid in bringing ABOUT

extreme penalty on their own hypoth-
esis.
Assassins who deliberately kill, not be-
cause of the heat of passion or to avenge
personal wrong, but for the cause of
mankind, are not the kind of people who
are fit for ordinary society, aud on con-
viction should be executed; not for any
private vengeance or public anger, but
simply for the protection OF the public
which is the good of humanity.
Extenuating circumstances" may be
seen in their conduct from a peculiar
philosophical standpoint, but in the eyes
of the law there are none when assassins,
whether called anarchists or by some
other name, proceed to deliberately
throw the deadly bomb, or ply the sti-
letto or use the revolver, without qualm
of conscience and to perform what they
regard as duty. They become uncom-
mon murderers, but are still murderers,
and deserve the murderer's doom.
1t will not do to palter with such law
lessness on any plea of principle or claim
of motive. Such anarcaism must be
stamped out, and the philanthropists"
and philosophers who advocate it
must be made to confine the practice of
their theories within the limits of es-
tablished law.

IT Is now said that the date of the de-
parture from Chicago of the Senate COM
mittee to visit the territories will be ad-
vanced to the latter part OF the month,
instead of the 10th OF June, as has been
announced. The committee will consist
of Senators FAULKNER, HILL and PLATT
and possibly DAVIS and BATE. Senator
HILL is said to be enthusiastic in antici-
patton of the trip. From Chicago the
committee will come direct to this city, in
the private car of the President OF the
Pacific railroad, thence to California,
back to Denver, south to Arizona, and
thence through Texas to Oklahoma. 1t
is thought that probably 60 days will
be occupied in making the trip and TAX
ing testimony.

will proceed by steamer to the southern
part of Prince of Wales Island.
The object of the expedition is to estab-
lish the boundary line of Alaska as re-
lated to the British possessions. The
southern line of Alaska, as described in
the treaty of its cession, starts from the
southern cape of Prince of Wales island
and follows the line of 81 deg. 30 min.
until it intersects with the
Portland canal. But that point on
the island is several miles south
OF the line described and running from it
due east would not intersect the canal at
ali. 1t is evident therefore that there is
something wrong in the description and
the commission will have to survey the
country and determine the true line.
But the great question that will have to
be decided will be discrepancy as to the

IN THE Chickasaw nation much inter
est seems to be manifested in the autici-
pated visit of the Statehood commission.
This nation, like that of the Cherokees,
is fast being monopolized by the whites,
there now being fully twenty whites to
one Indian. The lease system makes to
the interest of the whites. The statehood
idea is that OF ex-Chief BUsHYHEAD, who
favors it to anticipate the United States in
making unfriendly laws. There is. how
ever, little probability that the statehood
project can be made practicable. Many
of the Chicasaws, Cherokees and Creeks
favor selling out their lands and buying
homes in Mexico.

the society, which only existed and Ia
bored for the public welfare, and their
consciences were not at all disturbed at
their act, as they had only proceeded on
principle. The jury found them guilty
with sextenuating circumstances.
Such philanthrophy and philosophical
reasoning cannot be appreciated by the
common mind. 1t is to be expected that
ordinary citizens will pay more respe CT to
the law than to their private or society
notions. If any killing is necessary to be
done for the public welfare it must be at
tended to in legal way, and after ju-
dicial determination OF guilt. For
the protection of society it looks
as though these extraordinary indi-
viduals, who take the law into
