After Pullman's Charter,

Attorney-General Moloney has
filed petition IN the Circuit cour
for leave to attack the charter ot
the Pullman company through QUO
warranto proceedings,
The charges in the petition arc
that Pullman's Palace Car co mpany
has assumed to exercise powers and
privileges which the law ana ITS
charter never intended il should ex.
ercise.
1t is charged that the company
has no power under its charge to run
hotels, theatres, water works, gas
ana light plants, to own conduct
and rent tenements and dwelling
houses, or to own ornamental, unoc
cupled and vacant lands not used
for the transaction of its business. or
to own, for the purposes for which IL
Is put, the great Pullman office and
apartment building at Michigan ave-
nueeand Adams street in Chicago.
All the powers which the State
has conferred upou the Pullman Pal
ace Car company are expressed in
section 4 Of the charter, which, as
set out in the attornoy-generaIs pc
tition, reads as follow:
The said corporation shall have
power to manufacture, construct and
purchase railway cars, with all con-
venient appendages and supplies for
persons travelling therein, and the
same may sell or use or permit to be
used in such manner and upon such
terms as the said company may
think fit and proper.
The restraints upon its powers are
contained in section of the charter,
which is as follows:
1t may be lawful for Che company
hereby incorporated to purchase, ac-
quire and hold such real estate as
may be deemed necessary for the
successful prosecution of its bust
ness, and may have power to sell
and convey the same.
Under the limitations Of the char
ter the very ac. Of establishing and
conducting such town as Pullman
is, it is claimed, an infraction of the
law.

PrnyIng for Rnin.

During recent long dry spell
ministers and congregations in some
OF the drcuth-strickcn districts have
united in earnest sdpplication to the
King of the Universe for rain, and in
more than enc instance the answers
have been so direct and positive that
the most skeptical were bound TO adj
nit the efficacy of prayer.
The farmers, at Riverhead, Long
Island, appointed a day on which
they tasted and prayed for rain to
save their crops from ruin. The
rain came while they prayed in the
village church. The lightning flashed
the thunder rolled and the rain came
down in torrents for more than an
hour, which time the farmers sang
and prayed and praised the Lord for
his merciful goodness. No rain had
fallen there since June 1st, and that
which came in answer TO the united
prayers of these good old farmers
did thousands of dollars worth Of
good.
Another report of similar nature
comes from Walnut Ridge, Ark.
The people had constructed a big
brush arbor under which they were
holding a camp meeting. Rev. Rob-
inson was conducting the exercises,
and during his opening prayer said:
Lord, come down now and pour
out blessing of some nature upon
us; one Gf such a nature as we can
remember: one that we can feel cer-
tain is from You, and come now"
Before the prayer was concluded
there came fash of lightning with a
roar Of terrible thunder, and huge
tree standing near the arbor was
shattered, scattering branches all
over the audience, some Of them
whom were severely injured and
Others badly shocked.
The crowd had hardly recovered
from the shock before the rain came
down in such torrents as were never
before known in that locality. The
peculiar feature Of the rain was that
until the fash of lightning came no
cloud was visible.
,'ss After such forcible argument the
Arkansas farmers are thoroughly
convinced there is efficacy in prayer,

Opinion on Primaries.

The approaching primaries and
conventions throughout the State
renders the following opinion Of the
attorney general on the subject per-
tlnent and interesting: "The pri-
mary election law is very crude, and
IN many phases difficult Of construc-
ton. / find it very difficult indeed
70 lntelligcntly construe some Of its
provisions at all. Section 3261 of
the Code in the clearest terms gives
each county right to decide
whether it will have q primary elee-
tlon or convention, and the power to
determine the methods of selecting
delegates, or expressing the choice
for candidates. While section 3263
seems to assume by implication that
this same power has some law or
may in some way be given to State
and district executive committees,
altho ugh section $3.50 seems to con-
fine the action of the constituted au-
'horlties of the party presumably
executive commttees), to naming
the day for the diffcren. counties to
choose delegates or otherwise ex-
press their will on the same day,
This is a distinct recognition again
of the power of each county TO de-
eide whether'it will have primary
or delegate convention. | do not
think section 1868 should be so con-
strned as to deprive the counties of
this right, which would in effect en-
tirely destroy the plain provision Of
section 1861. This, it seems to me,
is the soundcr and safer construc-
ton"

The Hon. j. X. Vardaman, who is
being mentioned as a gubernatorial
possibility, has been interviewed,
and from bis rounded periods and
the stand he takes upon almost all
important questions of the day it
looks as If the interview was Of the
"made TO order variety" He ap-
preached the question of his candi-
dacy, and said; $50 be called upon
to serve the people of Mississippi in
the capacity Of Governor, is an
honor which few men would decline,
yet it imposes responsibilities which
must not be lightly considered. In
my judgment it is the highest Office
in .he gift of Mississippians, and the
mention Of my name in connection
with II is q compliment of which I
am not in any way insensible. The
press and the people of Mississippi
have always been most generous 10
me--in fact far beyond my deserv-
ing, But it is too early in the action
for me to say just now what shall

story over the country to the effect
that he employs q colorcd man as
foreman at his saw mill. In reply to
which Mr. Denny says he does not
own saw mill at all, and IL he did
he would sell it. Another story
is that he has promised to have the
Federal court removed from Missls-

phatic9lIy denies, saying that lie
would be governed in the inatter by

what the coast people think about
this matter, but If the government
can not afford TO erect a suitable
building for the court where il is
now, it ought to be removed or abol,
ished. The government ought moi
