A novel battle took place at Cow
ington, KY, the other day. 1t was
between the Chesapeake and Ohio
and the Kentucky Central Rail-
roads for possession of a piece of
track which both claimed. The
Central set a force of men at work
to take up the track. Then Ches-
apeake and Ohio locomotive was
run on the track to prevent this.
Then came a Kentucky Central
locomotive and pushed the other
off, and presently all the locomo-
tives that either side could COM
mand were putting and straining
to push one another off the disput-
ed property. The heaviest battal-
ions gained the day, and the Ken
lucky Central remained in possess

Will Open on Sunday.

The opening or closing of the
World'sFair on Sunday has beer
a vexed question for months prior
to its Inauguration, and has waxec
hotter each day since. The case
has at last been decided in favor OF
its remaining open on Sunday. II
was taken into the State court OF
Illinois, and that court decided
that the fair must be closed, in &C.
cordance with the act of Congress
appropriating money for it. An
appeal was taken to the U. S. Su-
preme court, and Chief Justice
Fuller has just rendered an adverse
decision, in which Justices Bum
and Allen concur with him. He
holds that the governments ap-
preparation of s2,500,0O0 does not
entitle it to control of an enterprise
in which its incorporators have in
vested $16,000,000; that while the
government has qualified possession,
it cannot interfere unless some in
vasion of property or civil rights
of an irreparable nature is made;
that no property interest being
threatened or injured, the courts
have no right to base their inter-
ference upon religious beliefs and
preferences.
This decision opens up a field
for wide spread discussion, but it |
appears to be in strict accord with |
common sense and equity. Chris
tianity cannot be legislated into
people, nor can it be drilled into
them by police supervision. And
right here comes in that nice dis
upon which not only indi-
Viduals stumble, but upon which
he Supreme court of Illinois seems
% have gone astray. The line is
irawn on the invasion of rights or
he injury of property. But con-
iict of sentiment or a mere differ
nee of opinion cannot be held to
'e an invasion or injury, because
he observance of both Saturday
nd Sunday is held sacred alike by
ifferent individuals of differing
reeds. Here is difference of 1
ice distinction, but it cannot be l
egulated by police supervision,
Ike the sale of whisky or keeping
disorderly houses, about which q
lere is no difference of opinion a
mong all good people. The OBJ s
srvance of the Sabbath must be :
1T to individual conviction on the c
inject, while the sale of whisky, g
other acts Of infamy and harm, E,
