THE LAW STPREME

the officers Of the law are deserving Of gratitude
and respect. Patriotic citizens in full possession
Of their senses may Justly feel indignant that
so passionate and determined an assault upon
public authority was possible IN a community
ordinarily pcaccable and intelligent. and ut the
same time derive solid satisfaction from the
fact that in the face of great odds the law WIS
upheld even at a sacrifice of life. Prompt and
grateful commentator Of Colonel Colts con-
duct is due to that brave and rcsoluic officer Of

certainty Of bloodshcd If he had resisted longer.

would have taken the part Of an aggressor and
violated instead Of defending justice. Colonel
Colt proved his fitness for command in an
emergency. He gave ample warning of his pur-
pose. and Of the consequences which his assall-
ants were inviting. aud then when decisive
action became absolutely Necessary he gave
orders which left him master of the situation
The victory thus won completed ycstcr-

B1CKSLIDTNG PERFORMERS.

What does Frederic II. Coudert mean when
he SAYS that Senator Hill represents in this
contest everything that we have fought for in
"thc last ten years?
Two years ago the Snap Convention was
called prematrrely in order to sdctrack Mr.
Clcveland'S D0mnatiO for the Presidency. Mr.
Coudcrt and the Cleveland Democracy rose in
revolt against IIsm. and the National Con-
vcntiOn sustained them.
one year ago Senator Hill first dictated ana
subsequently defended the nomination Of May
narl rs a reward for stealing the true returns
of the XVIII Senate District and capturing the
Legislature by Il foul conspiracy against law
and free suffrage. Mr. COudcrt and all the de-
cent Democrats in the State deserted their party
and buried Maynard under an adverse majority
of over 100000.
And now Nj. Coulcrt finds in Senator Hill

IEiRNING THOU ENPERIE

Several Democratic candidates for Congress In
Indiana have pledged themselves to vote for
rcialiatory measures agIinSf Spain. This action
has been taken in Response to the demands of
the milling and farming interests. which have
been damaged hy the ahrogation of reciprocity
agreements. The pledges amount to nothing
since retaliation Is impracticablr. These Demo
cratic Congressman. ii reelected. can do moth
ing 10 restore the market which has been lost
by incapable and laundering lcgislation But It
Is highly significant that these Western agr
cultural and milling interests should have cx-
crtcl 50 much pressure upon them. 1t is an
uncrring sign that public opinion in the country
holds the Democratic party to a strict account
for the collapse of Il policy which was cnlarg-
ng the export trade and stimulating farming
and manufacturing industries.
While the agreements with Spain were in
force every steamer sailing from this port for
cuba and Porto Rico WIS heavily loaded with
cargo. American millclS obtained full control Of
the flour markets there, and there was "A great
increase in the provision trade. Large orders
for machinery were filled in the United States.
and there was not an important line of manu-
features that WAS not benefited by the reel
procity agreement. So great was the shipping
business that extra steamers were chartered
Ia carry freight 10 Cuba. Since the abrogation
of the agreements there has not been adequate
freight business for the regular steamers and
the decline in trade is 50 marked that il may be

ONE or HILL'S TRICKS.

Senator Hill with characteristic audacity Is
trying To- make the voters believe that they must
cloct him Governor i'm order to defeat the ap-
portionmcnt proposed by the Constitutional Con-
vcniion No candidate for public office ever
made a cheaper and more worthless plea. our
belief is that the apporiionmcnl amendment was
not unfair in purpose and is not unjust in fact;
and We merely express the universal conviction
when We say that. if adopted. il will annul an
abominablc Democratic grrIymandcr which
Iils stolen Legislature IF 1882 put through at
his command with full Knowledge of its char
actcr and with great satisfaction over lis worst
features. If. rs W" think. ii is not only far
more equitable than that which ii is expected
to supcrSclc but essentially honest and bcnc-
fetal. il ought to be ratified 10y Il great ma
lority. If we deemed it unjust, ana especially
if we supposed hat it had been dishonesty CON
trivcd. We should WISH to sec il defeated. not
only because Of its intrinsic dement's but be-
cause such trick is always quickly disastrous
to the political party identified with it.
But the probable disagreement If reputable

LOU PRICES FOR COTTON.

Cotton is down 10 > cents Il pound on the
Southern plantations, and Is steadily declining in
price How do the Southern cotton planters ike
the results of the Cleveland Administration and
of the Democratic massacre Of American indus
tries? Al > cents a'pOund most of The Southern
cotton-plantcrs can hardly cover the cost of
raising cotton. III fact. there are immense
areas in the South upon which planters VIII
actually suffer loss upon every pound of cotton
which they sell at the present figures. Where
will the planters get the money with which to
buy The fertilizers for the next crop? In most
of The Southern States cotton cannot be- raised
without The liberal Us" Of costly fertilizers.
Do the Southern planters enjoy the present
state Of things, which they have brought upon
themselves by their own blindness and folly:
The South can never prosper by closing the
mills in the North. That ought 10 be plain
enough 10 everybody below Mason and DiXon'S
