The RclinCtOn Railroad.

At Piedmont, a town not far from
Cumberland, on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, a special meeting OF the stock
holders Of tho West Virginia Central and
Pittsburg Railroad Company was held
on Wednesday. A special to the Balti-
more Sun says:
"severnl gentlemen from Bucthannon, Up
shur county. W. Va, we're In consultation with
President Davis and the dire 'tors In tho interest
Of the Buckhannon and Belington railroad, a
branch to connect the Camden ald Davis sys-
toms. Tho conference was mutually satIsiac-
tory
This is The projected railroad noticed
by us lost week, which is to run from
Beliugton, ". Va, westward to the
Ohio river, as well as from Belington
eastwsrl to deep water on the Potomac.
Belington is not farther from Richmond
than from Baltimore, we think. At any
rate, this new road promises to be OF
benefit to Northern Virginia.

nIurot UnIstead and Gold.

We read with interest MIR. HALsTEAD's
articles on the silver question aud find
in them many teachings which We con-
cur in but here is one that surprises
US. We quote:
'"Gold is the standard, irro Ipec.iyo OF govern
ment, and will assert It's supremacy all the moro
when the ignorant apply their inscnssio srtih-
ciall.les II gold appreciate eli property sd-
yances nd wages first and most OF all'
Because "gold is the standard irre-
spectiye OF government" other property
loses its comparative value as compared
with gold when gold rises in price. In
other words, as gold appreciates COM
modities depreciate. II a hundred gold
dollars will to-day buy hundred bush
els Of wheat. and gold goes up to-mor-
row, hundred dollars in gold will buy
more wheat to. morrow than it will to-
day. In a word, what is meant by the
appreciation " OF gold is that its pur-
chasing power has increased. Necessa-
rily all commodities lose q portion Of
their purchasing power.
Think Of this matter again, Mr.. Hal
STEAD.

Cyclone and Tornado Free.

Whenever NO read OF the fierce cy-
clones and tornadoes which sweep over
the western country, leaving death and
devastation in their tracks, we are re-
minded Of the immunity from them
which we enjoy.
Ours is land particularly free from
ravagiDg winds, and so it has been
throughout its recorded history and.
therefore. there must be typographical
conditions which give us protection.
Among tho many claims that we can
set up when seeking immigrants, this is
one that shonld be pressed forward
boldly. We have no disposition TO berate
other sections Though after all of the
mischievous things that have been said
against US we might be justified in doing
sol, but in a matter like this sheer JUS
tice to ourselves and consideration for
intending settlers will warrant us at least
in calling attention to this blessing which
We enjoy and which we wish TO share
with all the good people who may come
to us FROM the North or Northwest or
Europe.
Ours is land blessed by Providence,
and for this we should make oar acknow-
Judgments 10 the Divine Giver.
A prominent citizen OF Richmond said
yesterday he thought that the people of
this city and State should hold great
thanksgiving meeting and from CRATE
full hearts pour out their acknowledge
ments TO God for the gift OF this land.
The blessings that are ours we should
make known to oil the peoples OF the
earth. These who are seeking new
homes VIC should invite to como amongst
us, and when hero it should be our
effort to make them well satisfied. No
settler who is worth having will stay
whore his family is Disseminated. In
all of these matters we must help our
selves. The ball has been put in motion
by the Governors convention and wo
must keep it rolling.

The New COmDfroller.

The nomination OF Mr.. EcKELs, oil
Illinois, to be Comptroller Of the Cur
rency was confirmed on Wednesday, a:
we had expected it to be, and as wa:
stated in our issue of yesterday.
1t is amusing to find paper pub.
lished in one Of those cities whose inhabi.
tants "know It all grsvely averring
that the new Comptroller OF the Cur
rency is "Mr. JAMES II. EcKKLs, @
lawyer of Illinois.
Yes, Mr.. EcKrLs is lawyer, and we
cannot imagine how the President could
do better than to appoint a lawyer to
perform the duties of that Office. One
Of the ex-comptrollers (Mr. LACEY is
reported to have said in explanation OF
the selection of Mr.. EcKELs, that whilst
he (LAoEY) held the Office so many
knotty law points were presented for de-
cision that it had become O question
with him whether banker or a lawyer
could best ill the place. Mr.. LACEY
added that at any rate competent law
yer was needed in the oAice--that is to
say, not in the ofii:e Of Comptroller OF
the Currency, but in the office Nth the
Comptroller.
In other words, President CLEVELAND
did just what it was ais duty to do when
he appointed Mr.. EoKELs.

FRIDAY. .......... APRIL il. 1893.
Address of the Convention.

The convention of the Governors Of
the southern States concluded its work
yesterday. This it was able to do by
the help Of industrious committees and
by holding long morning and afternoon
SESSIONS
The result of its careful deliberations
is summarized in an address which it
adopted and we publish this morning,
ard which tells what the South is, what
attractions it presents for home-seekers,
and what sort OF a people newcomers
Will find here.
Our claims upon the attention Of capt.
talists and settlers are accurately set
forth. Every statement made can be
subStantiated. 1t is q calm, sensible
paper beGttingthe digniGed source from
which it proceeds. 1t declares that our
laws are favorable to the investor, and
that public order and private rights are
firmly upheld and maintained here"
No attempt is made in the address to
meet the slanders Of our political enc
mics. This wa not deemed to be the
occasion for that, but it is asked by the
convention that each State which was
here represented shall, through its own
Chief Executive, issue an address set
ting forth such further facts as it may
feel specially interested in presenting.
Governor fIsHBACK introduced q let
ter addressed to the President, and
which he proposed for adoption, asking
him to give the South Il fair share Of the
consulships TO cities abroad from which
immigrants come to this country, in order
tina. these officers might check the sys-
tematic misrepresentation of the South
which have prevailed in such quarters
for thirty years but this having been
talked over was Withdrawn. The mere
mention OF our grievance against Re-
publican consuls will no doubt incline
the President to do what he can do for
us, and We may confidently expect bet
ter things OF the Democratic consuls
than OF their predecessors.
Last night the members of the con-
vention We're entertained in agreeable
style by the Westmoreland Club and
had the opportunity Of meeting there
great many beautiful women and dis
tinguished men.
That the convention will do the South
much practical good we have no doubt.
1t has already done good. For month
past the newspapers throughout the
land have been discussing it, thereby
giving US an adyertisement-as it was
always stated that the meeting was to
be in the interest of immigration and
industrial development Day by day
during its sessions the same fact has
been proclaimed world-widely by the
press dispatches, and now the conven-
tons address will 60 into all OF the
daily papers and all the induttrial jour
mails. And next will como the address
of each Of the Governors. Altogether,
We shall be able to get O good hearing.
The next thing for US to do is to put |
our immigration bureaus in working or
der and secure the help of all the north |
erners and Europeans now citizens of
the South who will join us in hearty
effort to bring home-buying immigrants
to our section.

COntcmpt of Court.

II is worthy Of note that almost stimuli
taneously with the rendering OF the re-
cent decision of Judge BROOKE in the
Norfolk case of contempt Of court the
attention OF the United States Senate
was called to the fact that there is too
much disposition on the part OF the
courts to extend their jurisdiction and
to exercise powers that do not belong to
them, or, at any rate, to stretch the
powers which do belong to them.
On the 10th instant, whilst the late
decisions of Judge TAFT. Judge RIoKs.
and Judge SpEER in certain railroad
cases were casually up for discussion in
that body, Mr.. CALL, of Florida, argued
that inssmuch as the Federal Constitu-
ton guaranteed to the people OF the
United States the right TO be secure in
their persons, houses, papers, and ef-
fects against unreasonable searches and
seizures, and also provides that no war
rants shall issue except upon probable
cause, &C., &C., it would be well to keep
in view these limitations OF the power
OF the courts when such questions were
raised as those reported TO have been de-
cided by the judges above named. The
people have some rights, Mr.. CALL
thinks, which the courts are bound to
respect.
Mr.. GALL added that the Federal Con-
stitution further directs that no person
shall be deprived of his liberty "with.
out due process Of law" and then asked.
us the process Of contempt due pro-
cess OF law except in the most restricted
cases where there is an open defiance OF
the jurisdictional power. which is a
rightfui exercise OF power by the
courts?" And the distinguished Sem
ator answers, Certainly not II it
be true that disobedience OF an in.
junction upon q laborer requiring
him TO perform a duty which he has
contracted to perform can be punished
as q contempt Of court, then there is no
limit to tho Judicial power" But we in
tended to quote only so much from Mr..
CALL's argument as touches the question
Of contempt Of court and so We close
our quotations with the following para
graph;
"ipls poser Of contempt arbitrary and un-
limited. shoaid be restrained By Law. and this
