GLASS LEGISLATION.

Laws made In favor of any one class of
people are wrong. If one trade, industry
or crop is singled out for special favors, or
cash bounties. it is unjust to all others. If
we pay bounty on sugar beets raised, as
ii is now proposed to do in Colorado, why
should not the farmers whose land is too
poor to raise beets be paid a bounty on tur'
nips or beans All are alike necessities OF
Lille And then why should the farmer be
singled out for such lavors any more than
other classes of The people?
Sugar is not OF so much Importance rs
bread. Then why should not the wheat
growers be paid premium upon every
bnshel of that staple-surely they need ii as
much as any class OF agriculturists, in view
of the late prices. But the system is wrong.
Our national OF State governments should
be no respectors Of persons. They were
founded upon basis Of equality to all citi
zens, and any legislation which is for the
benefit Of any one particular class, and to
the disadvantage of others, is in violation Of
our constitutional rights and opposed to
liberty and equality
All agricultural products that are required
to support life are very cheap now, and we
grant that the farmers are having hard
time Of il, but because wheat, corn, sugar,
&c, are undoubtedly being raised at loss
in some localities that is no reason why the
raisers OF any one of them should be singled
out for a bounty

THE VENEZUELAN PROBLEM

The Venezuelan problem seems to be a
complex one and difficult of solution. One
point, however, appears plain enough
II Great Britain declines to arbitrate for
one reason, and Venezuela rejects arbitra
ton for another reason it will be extremely
difficult for the United States to make them
arbitrate. Our friendly and skillful diplo.
macy may lead these antagonistic govern
ments up TO the watering trough, but it
cannot make them drink of the peaceful
waters Of arbitration, though itcharm never
80 wisely.
This suggests another point not quite so
clear, but nevertheless prominent enough TO
stumble upon. After the United States has
recognized that the dispute over the terri
tory along the Orinoco lie subject matter fer
diplomacy, can it hold that for England TO
enforce its claims against government that
refuses to arbitrate is such an act of un.
founded aggression as to raise the standard
of the Monroe doctrine? That time honered
principle avows that to introduce the Euro
pean system to Cypress or overthrow any
of the established American republics will
be taken as an act unfrendly to the United
States. The acts contemplated in this avowal
were such as were then under consideration
by the Holy Alliance to re-estabish Euro
pean sovereignty over South American re-
publics. The latest attempt of that sort was
to establish the empire of Macmillan in
Mexico. But the Monroe doctrine expressly
disarmed any desire to interfere with the
territory then possessed by European pow
ers on this hemisphere. The dispute be
tween England and Venezuela is over Eng
lands claim that it has always held legal
sovereignty over the territory in issue AT
ter the United States has recognized that
the claim has enough foundation for arbi'
tration, can the position be taken that to
enforce it will be so gross seizure OF Vene
zuelan territory as to infringe on our ma
tional platform
This dispute is Of the complicated variety
that must be treated as a Gordian not, to be
cut by a bold stroke or else to be let severely

Attorney j. Semmes Deyecman, Of Cum.
berland, has filed petition TO the County
Commissioners asking for reassessment
and correction of the assessment list for AL
legany county. lie claims that the County
Commissioners have the power TO correct
and revise the assessment list under exist
ing law. He states that city and suburban
property is assessed too low and farming
land too high. He cites an instance Of a
Baltimore street property in Cumberland
being assessed at only $4,000, drawing an
annual rent of $2,400. The position taken
by Mr.. Devecman is based on an opinion
expressed in recent letter Of Judge Den
mis-, of Baltimore.
In March the customs revenue was $l4,.
10000, against 1885, 900 in February
and 81 $4,000 in March, 1894 The Gus.
toms revenue is growing steadily, while in
terna revenue shows no important increase.
The total revenue was in March $25 ,9S5, 900,
against $23, 10l 900 in February. Disburse.
ments have been decreasing.

constitutional so far as it is related to in
comes from rent, State, county or municipal
bonds. 1t was next ruled that the fact that
the law was pronounced unconstitutional
in these two particulars did not invalidate
the law as whole. 1t was announced
that in this latter conclusion the court was
equally divided aud therefore rendered no
opinion The lower court having ruled in
favor of the law by divided court the law
would stand except as to rent, aud State,

two points it was directed that the jndg

There is distinctly growing belief among
local railroad officials that good times are at
hand. The present depression has lasted
uninterruptedly for two years, and ont of
that fact grows the strongest belief that it is
soon to end. Merchants everywhere have
restricted their business To the smallest cash
basis, and find themselves this spring with
no stocks on hand to satisfy the spring and
the summer trade. As a result Of this con
dtion officials of railroad, count on the
largest shipments in their history OF pack
age freight-the most profitable kind from
an earnings standpoint Lines in all parts
of the country are making preparations to
meet this expected increased movement.
The Pennsylvania and the Baltimore and
Ohio are having all their old freight cars
put in first class condition, and the latter is
increasing the force at some points along
its lines.
