PRESIDENT WILLIAMS of the Chemical National Bank thinks that the banks will not go into the Carlisle plan if adopted. He speaks from his own standpoint. The proposed plan will not be of advantage to the Chemical, because it is 8 phenomenal bank. It has capital of only $500. .0CO, but it has deposits to the amount of $50, ,000, ,000. But the other banks will be glad to accept the Carlisle plan. Their only objection is to the safety fund feature. But in case of suspended banks this fund will not be drawn on until the resources provided by the individual liability oi stockholders is exhausted. The probability is that the safety fund will rarely, if ever, be drawn uuon

Not many years ago oranges were re- garded as luxury. They cost 5 and 10 cents piece. Now they can be bought at 1 cent piece-that is if they are bought by the box. It is strange that housewives do not buy them by the box, as they do other fruit and vegetables. They can be bought by the box at just one-half what they cost by the dozen. They can be kept just as well as other fruit and vegetables by giving them plenty of air and sunshine.

THE constitutional limit of fifty days to the General Assembly is altogether too short for the work to be done, and the constitution needs amending in that re- spect as much as any other. The State has grown and much legislation has become necessary. It would be real economy to lengthen the sessions of the General Assem- ply rather than take the risk of hurried and ill.digested legislation. The framers of the constitution had in mind the condition of the State at that time, 1876. The Gen. eral Assembly of 1878 had ample time in the constitutional limit, but it had not one- third of the business before it that the present body has. It may be said that the Governor has power to call the Legislature together in extra session, but he is given this only on extraordinary occasions, ," and unfinished business may not afford the ''extraordinary occasion" contemplated by the constitution.

LABOR IN POLITICS.

The action of tine American Federation of Labor at Denver in refusing to form au independent political party does not mean that they will withdraw from politics. They cannot carry out the measures adopted in their platform without engag- ing in politics. It will be remembered that Samuel Gompers, president of the Federation of Labor, attributed the re- suit of the November election to the labor vote. Just after the election he wrote the following letter:
 'Grover Cleveland, Washington, D. C.:
 "Without much concert of effort by organ ized labor the people have answered at the polls your assumption of unconstitutional and unwarrantable use of the military power to crush labor. Though the change may bene- fit us little, the rebuke will, nevertheless, be appreciated and remembered
 "SAMuEL GoMPERs."
 It will be observed that he claimed the result was accom- plished without much concert of effort by organized labor. The inference is that if labor should act in con- cert 1t could carry the election overwhelm- ,Dgly any way it chose. It would be folly 10 suppose that the labor leaders will sur render their power in politics. They doubtless intend that organized labor shall act together, but will throw it's strength with one of the existing parties rather than organize an independent labor party.
 -
 BY power of the Federal constitution the House is the sole judge of the election and qualifications of it's members. This is a royal right and it should be used in a kingly way, but too often its efmine is dragged in the mire of partisan politics. It IS almost impossible for a majority to re- fuse to take advantage of its opportunity, even at the sacrifice of justice. So often and so openly has the House displayed partisanship in seating its members that efforts have been made to have contested election cases settl cd in the courts, but without success. In fact, it IS doubtful if party spirit could be kept out of the courts If that method were adopted. We saw it tried in the electoral commission of 1876, and the Presidency was given to Hayes on the strict party vote of 8 to '. The only hope that the incoming Congress will deal justly with the score or more of contestants lies in the fact that they fear the people. If the Republican majority runs rongh- shod over the Democratic minority and seats Republicans who have no show of right to the seats the people will remem- - Der the wrong and rebuke it at the polls,

The JAPANESE WILL HAVE TO AN
swER.-A Washington dispatch of the
3Oth says that it is the opinion Of dip
lomats that the Japanese have made q
grave error in sinking the transport
Kow Shung, and that it will cost them
much money in PREPARATION, besides
the humiliation of an apology. The
Kow Shung was one of line of coast
steamers belonging to Hugh Mathie
son & Co., trading between Chinese
ports. The vessel was under the Brit.
ish flag until she was sunk. Although
she carried Chinese troops TO Corea, il
is said here she did not, in 80 doing
violate the law of neutrality, for there
has been no declaration OF war or open
acknowledgment by either China OF
Japan that war prevails. The yes
sci. therefore, according to this view
was engaged in legitimate traffic, and
the Japanese are likely to pay dearly
for sinking her and destroying the
lives Of the ships company.

japan Scores a Victory.

\ naval battle was fought Monday be-
tween the Japanese and Chinese fleets,
in the harbor OF Tien Tsin, in which
the japanese sank the Chinese warship
Chen Iuen AMI captured two large
cruisers, which were destroyed. The
Chen Yuen was battle-ship of 1900
tons. with 14!-inch armor. Her arm
ament consisted of four Finch guns,
four Krupp guns, eleven Hotchkiss
cannon, and secondary battery Of
Hotchkiss revolving cannon. She was
built for China in this country, and
was a sister ship to the Lun Yuen, and
one Of the most powerful ships in the
Chinese navy. The dispatches say
the battle was hotly contested, but the
Japanese handled their guns and ships
with more skill than the Chinese.
There were 1000 men aboard the
sunken vessel, a large proportion OF
whom went down with her.
Cores, about which the trouble
seems to have originated. is kingdom
on the east coast OF Asia, with an area
eff 10000 square miles. The popula-
ton, however, like all oriental coun-
tries, is largely in excess of the area of
newer nations. 1t is given at 10000
GOO. Corea comprises peninsula
400 miles long and $50 broad, the ISL
ands adjacent, and part Of the neigh
boring continent. The total length Of
the country from north to south is
less than GOO miles. The political Or
ganization is similar to that of China,
and King Ki-Tao is the head OF tenn
poral and spiritual authority. Corea
carries on quite an extensive trade
with China and Japan, being separated
on the west from China by the Yellow
Sea and the east from Japan by the
Japan Sea. 1t has been, hitherto,
wholly Independent OF both the powers
to which it is tributary, but recent
complications led to the demand on
the part of China for the withdrawal
of the Japanese fleet from Corean wa
tiers, and the refusal to do so has led
to 9 war between the two powers.

A Row Among Fighting Men.

"A hNC1y cCIiuitudSc OCCuTItu III TIE
Office of the Adjutant General, in this
city, few days ago, between General
Curry, and the late Commissary Ser
geant of the cavalry battalion, lately
encamped at Woodland. 1t seems
that Sergeant Box, according to Gen.
Curry, had stated that he paid Adju-
tant General O'Brien, with the
knowledge and acquiescence of Gov.
McGraw, q large sum OF money for the
privilege of selling supplies on the
grounds, and that he had sublet privi-
leges at rates ranging from $25 to
$500, to such persons as wished to set
up refreshment stands on the grounds.
When the Governor heard of this
statement, he ordered an investigation,
and Box denied he had ever stated
that he had paid Gen. O'Brien for the
concession, or that Gov. McGraw was
cognizant Of such q trade. This
brought in Gen. Curry rs q witness,
and he declared that Box had stated
in his presence and that of several
other officers that he paid Gen.
O'Brien money for the privilege of
doing business, and subletting priv
leges, within the encampment grounds.
Box thereupon replied that the Gen.
eral Was a liar, when Curry sprang to
his feet and started towards Box,
when Gen. O'Brien stepped between
the disputants. This momentarily
suspended hostilities. but soon as
O'Brien had walked away, the alterca-
ton was renewed and Gen. Curry got
in . couple OF blows on Box, who
aimed blow at Curry and who in
lodging struck his head against
desk, by which . trifling injury was
inflicted. O'Brien again interfered,
when Box beat hssty retreat, and
was followed by the now irrate General
to the elevator. Box left his cover
