DOLLARS PARTED COMPANY.

The New York bankers during the
last week have been offering North
Carolina bankers one half Of one per
cent premium for legal tenders
greenbaclxs and Treasury notes. This
offer is made subsequent to an offer
of one half of one per cent
for all the gold the country
banks would furnish. Having
gotten all tile gold obtainable,
they now offer premium for legal
tender paper money. They can have
but one object in this, and that is TO
raid the Treasury gold and use it in
payment for bonds. OF else hold the
legal tender until gold is paid
for the bonds. and then make their
raid for gold.
What has become Of the demand
that every dollar must be kept of
equal intrinsic and exchangeable value
with every other dollar?
Gold has gone to premium. mind
you, without any silver legislation.

Recently Prof. Frisell, with ses era
colored students, has been making
lecture tour in New England. Tbs
New York Mail and Express touche;
up its New England brethren for theiI
treatment of the professor and foul
or five colored youths who accompan
led him. We quote:
'.The treatment received at Hartford
yesterday by party of five coioreC
graduates of the Hampton Norma
and Agricultural Institute, who ac
companied Principal Frissel on lee
ture trip, is a reproach and disgrace
TO a New England Commonwealth
which is accustomed to comment with
commendable severity upon the OPP
preston of the negro in many of the
Southern States Hartford's broad
mindedness is apparently confined to
theory. for in practice every hotel and
clearinghouse closed it's doors to
these young colored people, leaving
them without a refuge until several
indignant citizens opened their homes
and sought by private hospitality to
remove the sting of public insult. Let
Hartford henceforth be silent on the
negro problem in the South, and let
Connecticut be equally silent until it
repudiates the outrage perpetrated
by it's capital city.
The Washington Post commenting
ON the incident and indignant denun-
citation of the Mail and Express wisely
remarks:
There is absolutely nothing i'll it to
occasion surprise or to provoke com
ment. Prof Frissell could not take his
five colored Youths to New York, Phil
adelphia. Boston. Chicago or Cincin-
natl. and obtain first-class accommo-
dation for them in hotels any more
than he could in Richmond, Baltimore
Charleston or New Orleans. Every
body knows it, Prof. Frissell might
have known it if he had not kept his
head in the clouds The young colored
men in question should have known
it, and they ought to have had more
self-respect than to court the humllia
ton to which they were subjected.
1.-THE truth is that the whole country
is of one mind ON this point. The only
difference is that. the South IS candle
enough to profess its feelings and con
victions. while the North plays the
coward and the hypocrite.

THE sEABoARD'S PROsCRIPTIVE
POLICY.

The criticism of the News and OBJ
server directed against the manage
ment of the seaboard Air Line, be-
cause-of the dismissal of old officials
has not been based upon either any
desire to dictate to the management
Of that road or because of the personal
friendship TO the men dropped. We
concede to the management the right
to employ the best men that can be
had. and the right to discharge any
and all officials who are found incom-
petent or inharmonious. No business
can be well conducted unless there il
harmonious work all along the line
from the head TO the humblest EN-
ployee.
The objection Of the people Of North
Carolina, which has been voiced
through the News and Observer, is
that the new management has, from
the very first. shown a spirit Of pro-
scriptiveness toward those officials
who claimed residence in the State,
and a determination to replace them
by importations from the North and
West. This policy has been mani
Tested in many instances, notably in
the war which has been made on those
men who were known to have been
friendly to The Ninder regime. The
most competent men in the employ OF
the road ,one after another, have had to
make way for imported officials, and
the dropped officials We're known to be
capable, efficient and ambitious only
to promote the highest interests Of the
road.
The seaboard men love the system,
and there is no service they could rem
der their official supervisor that they
would not gladly perform. When Maj.
Ninder resigned they expressed their
regrets, for they were warmly at
tached to him. but they were not want
ing in loyalty to the new officials. 1t
is true that their regard was chilled, as
they saw man after man displaced to
make room for men from the West,
but none of these things affected their
faithful performance of duty. And the
public, while eriticizing the proscrip-
ton OF North Carolina men, believed,
until the summary dismissal of Cen
knowledge of the people and the bust
mes along the line of the road would
cause the new management 10 change
its policy. Mr.. Vinder is known to
be a very capable railroad man. good
executive officer, a man who could
manage men and hold their esteem
He did not need the large holdings of
his family connections TO make him
an acceptable officer. lie trusted in
his own right arm and in his own ca
pacity The retirement of Mr.. Winder
can he accounted for on no other hy-
pothesis than that a complete change
of personnel. involving the sacrifice of
the men who have done most to make
the system, was determined upon for
some reason which an impartial pub
lie cannnot fathom.
The people have no potential, pres

never yet was an individual or cor
