READINGS LEASE LEGAL.
Consolidation with the Lehigh Valley
Sustained.
JUDGE MErzGER's DECISION.

Judge Me,zger has fled his opinion
in the equity case of NJ. II. Arnot, of
Elmira, n. Y, stockholder in the
Lehigh Valley Railroad, VS.. the Phlla
delpbia and Reading Railroad, to res
cind the leases with the Lehigh Valley
Railroad.
This was the first suit instituted in
any State against the combine and
Judge Metzger's opinion is the first
given by any Common Pleas Court in
Pennsylvania concerning the deal.
Judge Metzger sustains the master,
w. w. Hart, who found in favor Of
the Reading
After reviewing the history Of the
case and quoting section !, article ~,
Of the Constitution of Pennsylvania
relating to railroads, Judge Metzger
proceeds to show by the testimony
presented before the master, that the
consolidation Of the Reading and the
Lehigh Valley Railroads was not in
violation of the Constitution.
His Homer finds that the Reading
and the Lehigh Valley Railroads are
not competing lines in the legal inter
pretation of the phrase, and hence the
combine" was not contrary to law.
He says that mere incidental compe
tition between branches or spurs Of
two systems will not prevent the con-
solidation of their main lines.
The Reading and the Lehigh Val
ley are not any more competing lines
than two roads located in different
parts of the State are competing.
Where the railroads are SO situated
with respect to each other tnat it is
not possible for them to be substantial
competitors for traffic from the same
shippers or ,ransporters they are not
within the mischief intended to be
remeded by the trainers OF the Cons.
'titu,lon. 1t is not the destination OF
freight or traffic alone which makes
the lines competing.
His Honor orders and DEGREES that
the exceptions be dismissed and the
report of the master be confirmed and
that the bill Of the plaintiff be dis
missed with costs The case will be
appealed.

What Might Have Been.

The Andrews Highly affair in the
Legislature recalls the gubernatoral
campaign of 1890, and with it the re
Election of what might have been had
the result of that Falls election been
just the reverse of what 1t was.
II George Wallace Delamater had
been chosen governor of Pennsylva-
MIA there is every reason to believe
that the Meadville bank scandal would
never have startled the country and
give to light the corruption in which
a man who aspired to the highest hon.
or within the gift of the State, was
plunged. Aside from that it is just as
reasonable to suppose that William H.
Andrews. his campaign general, would
have fallen into some of the many
snaps with which the G.. o. P. was &C.
customed to reward its successful work
ers, and would have been dispensing
patronage now, instead of occupying
the ingnominious position for which
he has lately displayed the requisite ash
nine qualifications.
The present situation simply goes
to show how soon 4 man whose use
fulness is gone is dropped by his con-
stituents. If Mr.. Andrews was of any
earthly use to his party there would
be decided change to the tenor of
the articles which leading Republican
papers are publishing daily about him.
If his vote was an absolute necessity
to make a Republican house the Re
publican press would not be slow in
heaping the abuse, now applicable to
Andrews, on Mr.. Highly, the lawful
elected member from Crawford
county. But as it is the large Re,
publican majority in the House and
the ranking sore Of having had the
gubernatorial chair taken from them
fires Republicans to vent their spleen
on the political corpse who is at the
mercy of his ungrateful party Not
because his ambition to usurp an
others place is too ungraceful for his
party. but because he failed to infict
on the people man they did not
want for governor.
Thus it is that William Andrews
finds himself despised political beg
gar at the door of the House of
Representative. .-- BeUefonte pa. J

The End of q Monarchy.

The overthrow Of the Hawaiian
monarchy and the establishment of a
provisional government marks the
final conquest of the Sandwich Island.
The country has been practically
governed by foreigners for many years
by the missionaries first, and later
by the spectators and politicians for
whom they prepared the way. The
native population has all the time
been shrinking and melting away, as
the weaker race always will fade be
fore the stronger.
Still, the form of a native monarchy
was maintained, chiefly because the
rival foreign interests could not agree
upor a substitute. English, German
American Influences contendcd for
the mastery in Hawaiian trade, while
within the official circle the native ele-
ment and the old missionary ring
fought one another, and it suited all
parties better to keep dusky mon
arch on the throne than to allow a
rival to get the upper hand.
Englal d has been the chief sup
port of the monarchy, and has more
than once defended it with good
effect against the influence OF the
American missionaries. 1T has been
recognized by every one that the
natural tendency was toward the
Americanization of the island, and the
only bulwark against this was the
maintenance of the farcical little
kingdom, the successive sovereigns
being hattered by the English and
persuaded 10 assert their royal
prerogative. The present Queen has
but lately been visiting London, and
was encouraged on her return to
make a decided effort to restore the
control Of the government to native
officials. 1t was the last struggle of a
dying cause. The effort failed and
her government collapsed. There was
no violence. 1t was simply the
inevitable that happened.
There is not much use of talking
about constitutional rights or any
thing of that sort. The Hawaiian
monarchy has existed only by
tolerance and now that it has fallen
there is an end of it. all the Queens
horses and all the Queens men can
never set it up again, and it is doubt
full if the attempt will be made. The
islands lie in the course of travel
across the Pacific and within close
trading distance of the United States
and they have been gradually filling
up with people holding Americanideas
These people have inevitably come to
the top and in the natural course oI
events have assumed control.
Whether the next slept will be
logical annexation to the United
State is d more difficult question
That such is the ultimate result to be
expected seems probable, but it could
not be accomplished now without com,
pllcatons it would be better to avoid,
and our government can best afford
to watch and wait events. Tie land

marines at Honolulu may be regard
ed as merely piece Of public police
sevice not as assuming lnything like q

defend Hawaiia against interference
from any other nation, but as TO tax

the Union, there isss time enough foi
that.-I2nseS.
