A STEP TOO FAR.

The appearance of a detachment Of
Federal troops in Judge Catlin's court in
Sacramento created quite a commotion.
The case WAS the examination of strikers
charged with stealing train at Dunsmuir,
and it was supposed shat the regulars
were brought into the courtroom to
take the strikers from the hands of the
civil authorities. This was prevented by
Judge Catlin, who called upon persons IN
court to resent any attempt the soldiers
might make to take away the strikers.
The determined attitude of the Judge I'M
pressed District Attorney Knight with the
propriety of ordering the troops TO with
dIaw. The question now is if Judge
Catln is in rebellion. That depends upon
the degree of martial law that prevails in
Sacramento. II 1t is anything Ike able
bodied martial law the Judge is a rebel,
but if it is a kind of half-and-half he may
be able to satisfy the Federal authorities
that he is still loyal citizen. One of the
evils of the railroad method of warfare IS
the bringing of Federal regulars into
street rows that the police could handle.
The Federal uniform should never appear
on American soil when it is not welcomed
by all law and order citizens.

TRAINS AND MAIL TRAINS.

A contemporary which has boxed the
compass over the railroad te-up has at
last found a position where it thinks it
can stand. 1t says that the legal right Of
the railroad to haul any Kind of cars il
pleases is perfectly clear. No one has
ever coDtended to the contrary. The con-
tention has been as to the right of the
railroad to stop mail trains during a con-
siderable period of inability to run one of
several kinds of cars a train was ordi-
narily composed of. The Southern Pacific
had legal right to Tur rullmans during
the whole period of the tie-up. But for
some days it was net physically able to
run Pullmans. but was physically and
legally able TO run mail trains. What was
the duty of The railroad in such case,
holding as it does the responsible position
OF common carrier? The Governmenthad
the choice OF two positions. One was out
lined hy District Attorney Denis, requir-
ing the railroad TO run such trains as it
could run. the other by AttOrney-General
Olney relieving The railroads from an
obligation to carry the mails in any but the
ordinarily made-up trains. The Govern
ment bacbed Oiney and won the fight for
the railroads; If it had backed Denis it
would as surely have won the fight for the
Railway Union.

District of California might enter upon
the work in good faith, but during the
late unpleasantness the Attorney General
did not take orders from District Attorney
Denis. The suit. If intended to be prose-
cuted, would dwarf any other suit ever
commenced in the United States. The
property directly involved reaches into the
hundreds of millions, and much more Is
indirectly interested. All railroads CON-
bine. and all important ones are aggrega-
tons of roads under one management,
There are thirty odd lines in what is
known as the Southern Pacific system.
These thirty lines have one head, and that
head at present is c. P. huntington. OF
late years the individuality of each road
has been gradually reduced Dy the appoint
ment of officials holding like power in
other lines. The combination. or consoli-
datiOn, has been a good thing for the
Southern Pacific. How it has affected the
public is not one of the Southern Paclhc's
chief concerns. The operation Of the
roads under the combination plan has con-
WINGED almost everybody that the only es-
cape from ruin is the Government control
of railroads, The Olney sui: comes there
fore just in time TO direct public attention
from this radical remedy.

TWEEDLEDUM AND TWEEDLE.
DEE,

The sticking point with the conferrees on
the tariff bill is now said to be over the
question of differeptial on refined sugar
The friends Of the sugar trust in the Sem
ate succeeded in getting duty of 30 per
cent on all sugar and q of a cent per
pound additional on refined. The House
conferrees object more to the additional u
than to the 40 per cent. Of course the lat
Ter gives the refiners considerable pull.
owing to the difference in valuation of raw
and refined sugars. 1t might be reckoned
at an average of about Clio of a cent per
pound. The Senate conferrees have pro-
posed as an alternative rate of 45 per
cent on all sugars. raw and refined. The
actual difference between the two would
hardly be worth speaking of, and on a
strong market might increase the protec-
ton to the trust, Yet this apparently
small matter is hanging up the whole bill,
and may send il back to both houses on
DISAGREEMENT.

OPPORTUNE.

The suit in equity 20 compel the South
ern Pacific Company TO disintegrate comes
at curious time. The Southern Pacific
and other railroad companies are emery
ing from war with labor which has re-
suited in n victory for the railroad through
the interference of the Federal Govern
ment. A remarkable feature of this con-
test was the fact mat there was such a
public feeling against the railroad man
ayers that Federal troops were put in
motion in several States without the re-
quest of State authorities ia the belief
that the State forces could not be relied
upon to fight for the roads. While law
and order citizens have acquiesced in the
Federal movement, it has given a good
many of them a shock. They do not like
the idea of Federal interference at the
call Of corporations whose exactions have
exasperated the public against them.
There has in consequence been more talk
about the Government ownership of inter
State railroads IN the last two weeks than
in any preceding two years.
At this particular time Attorney-Gen-
eral Olney, whose instructions to the
United States District Attorney for North
ern California in respect to the makeup
of a mail train was the point upon which
the strikers lost their fight, comes forward
with a suit which, if successful, will break
the Southern Pacific Company into frag-
ments. There will be as many pieces of
the Southern Pacific Company as their
lines of railroad united under one man
agement. Each road will be required to
maintain separate officers and to operate
its road without combination with other
roads. The effect of this bill upon the
railroads of the country will be pretty
much the same as il the Standard Oil
Company should be required 10 re-
establish the hundreds of oil re-
fineries II has purchased or crushed
OUT of business. AttOrnev-General Olney
should not feel chaerined if people are
slow to believe that he means business,
If he does his conversion may be CON-
pared to that of Saul. A contemporary
intimates that the Attorney General may
have received orders from President
Cleveland, but the public are not biting
much at this intimation. The office of
Attorney-General is of no value to Mr..
Olney, except as he car make it of value.
The salary attached to it is comparatively
insignificant, and the present Attorney
General has not found IL bed OF roses.
The grotesque idea that Mr.. Cleveland is
commanding Mr.. Olney to discipline the
Southern Pacific may therefore be dis
missed as little too striking for its times
