The action of President Cleve'
land in vetoing the seignoragc bill is
generally approved by the peO-
people of this section. The action
of our Representatives IN Con
gress. in voting'to pass the bill over
the Presidents veto, is generally
condemned. Our people like to
have plenty Of money, but they
want good money. They are not IN
favor Of initiating the currency by
reducing its value.
There seems to be kind OF po'
litical atmosphere cnveloping the
members of Congress which is en-
tirely different from that in which
their constituents live. 1t is very
natural to Judge the sentiments OF
the Southern people by those which
are expressed by their representa-
tives, but as far as our observation
and information as obtained 10y
reading the papers Of the South
teaches us, the sentiments of the
people are very different from those
of their representatives. 1t seems
strange that such should be the
cause, but it is certainly true. 1t
i. not difficult to forecast the result
ofsuch condition OF affairs.

began II suit against Isaac HOl.

for$jOO of stock to which he had
subscribed. The verdict, which
was in Mr.. Hollandel's favor,
practically declares that the CON-
pany was not legally organized,

amount Of capital stock, q number
of parties subscribed to stock,
with the understanding that it was
to be bought back By the company
as soon as its charter could be
amended so as to allow it to have
a minimum capital stock. Mr..
Hollander was one Of the number.
The stock was bought back, bat
the present board OF directors
disapproyed of this action, and
instituted suit against Mr.. Hol'
lander. AS result OF this suit,
several Stockholders will bring
suit against the promoters to make
them pay into the treasury the
sum ofS2O,OOO, which was shown
by the evidence to have been the
difference between the price paid
by them Tor the land and that
which the company paid them.

Honesty, in politics, may seem to
the time serving politician, as a
policy which has seen its day, but
future events, we fear, will in a
fearful manner demonstrate the
awful blunder which these same
time serving politicians have made.
Mr.. Cleveland has proved himself,
not the President Of the Democratic
party, but the President of the
United States. lie Is, undoubtedly,
strong party man, but when the
small politicians for selfish purposes
attempt to control his policy, they
ind that they have undertaken a
task too heavy for their abilities,
Mr.. Cleveland was not the choice OF
the politicians, but the people noml'
mated and elected him. He is the
peoples President. These same,
politicians, especially in the Senate
who, if not guilty Of criminal bargain
and sale of themselv es, are guilty OF
more than criminal stupidity, may
have the power, and it now looks
as If they had the desire, Of destroy
ing the party which trusted them
and elevated them to positions OF
trust and honor. They are prepar-
ing for themselves regulations which
will be frequently compared with
those of Benedict Arnold, and other
traitors. They seem to have lost
sight of the fact that they are bound
pledges made to the American
people, and now are OF the
opinion that their positions, obtained
by their pledges, can be safely used
to carry out schemes which will be
alone beneficial to themselves OF
their particular friends If their
acts should result i'll driving them
into obscurity it would be a blessing
to the country; but the danger Of
their defeating policy which would
prove a blessing to the American
people, and substituting one which
would prove curse to the masses
while a few would become I'm
mensely wealthy, now threatens the
nation. A few weeks more, and the
result will be apparent to all.
