FLASH DIAMONDS
Used to Secure Handsome Loan of
Money

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, May 20.-Deputy
Sheriff Marks arrived last evening with
Frank Cameron, whom he arrested in
Chicago. Cameron, it is alleged, perpe-
trated a clever swindle on Charles Gwin-
teer. money lender, and on James
Klaholt. jeweler of this city. He bor-
rowed $1,000 from the men and proposed
to secure them by putting up diamonds
said to be worth 5000. The diamonds
were pronounced at Klaholt's jewelrs
store to be genuine. The stones were to
be placed in the vault of the Illinois
National Bank and the loan was to be
paid in thirty days. At the expiration
of the time Cameron did not appear
and the stones were taken from the
vault. They were found to be bogus. Ii
is supposed that the bogus stones were
substituted for the genuine ones while
the transfer was being made to the
bank.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONEEN-
IZON

mes-Democrat.
The Importance of the proposed constitu
| tional convention is being lost sight of in
presence of the more urgent demands of the
yellow fever scare.
But the outbreak of sickness is a mere
temporary matter for those who survive it,
while the care of the State and of its insti-
tutions and of the rights of its people is
something permanent and requires the most
devoted and patriotic consideration.
Nor can the constellation of the conven-
ton be postponed on any account, since the
time for the election of delegates is very
close at hand. The election must be held
on the second Tuesday (the I1th) of Jam
uary, 1898, while the convention itself is to
be assembled on the second Tuesday of the
succeeding February.
Candidates are to be nominated, and as
the fitness of the various postulants should
be investigated and discussed, there is not
too much time in which to do that.
Emost important matters to come be-
forethe convention are the framing of a
suffrage qualification and the revision of the
judiciary system. There will be other
matters, but they will be subordinate in
weight and value.
Every citizen who has the genuine good
of the State at heart is agreed that the
Ignorant and degraded negroes must be
cleared out from the political situation
Just as long as the negroes, who compose
half the population of the State, remain
factor in its politics, just SO long will the
state politics be wholly corrupt.
The negroes can be bought, or they can
be allowed to vote and the election falsified
BY throwing out their votes. Each of these
expedients is wholly immoral. corrupt and
destructive of public official honesty, and
there is no choice between them. They are
equally criminal.
The negro vote is m Manipulated by either |
political party. according to the price paid |
Dr. the influence exerted, and no matter in |
whose interest, the effect is equally inju-
rious to the public good. The negroes |

displeasure of the Holy Father, and
more especially of Cardinal Ledo-
chowski, project of the propaganda.
1t is perfectly true that DR.. Keane
is attached to the propaganda as
consultor, but this is more or less
an honorary dignity, and the cardi-
nal, who goes by the name of the
Red Pope, has never once taken
the trouble to consult Dr.. Keane
about any matters, least of all
about those concerning the Catho-
lie Church in the United States.
1t is known, too, in ecclesiastical
circles here that the cardinal pre-
feet and some of the members of
the sacred college resent the free
dom with which DR.. Keane is re-
ported to them to have possessed
as the mouthpiece of the venerable
Pontiff, with the object of adding
to his own importance and troub-
ling those he chooses to regard as
his foes. Indeed, he is regarded
by the cardinal, who is considered
by many to be an enemy of the
archbishop, as so indiscreet that it
is considered preferable to keep him
at Rome, from where he can do
little or no harm in the position
that he occupies, whereas there is
no doubt that were he appointed
of New Orleans he
would speedily revive that discord
which is SO deeply deplored at the
Vatican, and which did so much to |
injure the prestige of the Catholic
Church in the United States.

dear sir, very truly,
Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 2.
Whether the New York Chamber
of Commerce should be the first to
take the matter in hand and start
an agitation in favor of having it
brought under the notice of Con-
gress, may perhaps be open to ques-
ton inasmuch as, owing to New
York's long-continued immunity
from an epidemic of vlrulent disease
imported from abroad, the mer-
chants of that city may not have
that warm interest in the subject
which would induce them to push it
with vigor and earnestness. But,
If the commercial organization of
the South. where the dislocations of
trade have been most serious, were
to take up the question, and collect
statistics showing the damage done
by the present invasion of disease,
both by the disease itself and more
especially by the wildly sense1ess
guarantees that scared communi-
ties have declared and maintained
against their neighbors, such statis-
tics would form the basis of bill
at the opening of Congress which
could not fail to commend itself to
the representatives of the people.
But if any such action is going to
be taken, it should be taken Just
now, when we are in the thick of
the plague, and when the people !
feel acutely the need of some pro-
tecting and restraining power like
the strong arm and the vigilant eye
of the general government. If ac-
ton be postponed until the plague
has disappeared, there will be a
sure relapse into the usual listless-
ness, and nothing more will be
heard again of the need of ma
tional and interstate quarantine un-
til the next visitation comes to
bring similar ruin in its train.
should the commercial
of the South at once
oestir themselves with a view to
the matter for Congress ,
Ind to substantiating the need of i
;uch national and interstate quar-
milne law with figures, statistics,
declarations, etc., as would carry
with them.
We reprint elsewhere an excellent ,
article on this subject +
which appeared in the New York a
Herald yesterday, and which sets G
orth the necessity for a national =
with force clearness. +
The general government is already t
nvested with the authority to take c
UGH measures as 1t thinks fit to

is, therefore, clear that with these
natural advantages of food, fuel and
raw material in available abundance,
we only need favorable conditions of
enterprise and competition to attain
and maintain absolute supremacy in
every line of human industry. These
conditions can only be provided by
the system of protection. This prop
osition requires no argument. 1t
has been amply demonstrated by
experience.
Free trade has been a failure even
in Great Britain, despite her elabo-
rate colonial policy. A SPECIAL
cable from London, dated Nov. 7tb,
states that the total decrease in the
value of British exports for ten
months of 1897 is $so,ooo,ooo. Eng
land is today confronted by the ON
inous fact that of the enormous for
eign trade of all the British colonies,
only about forty per cent is trans
acted with the mother country, while
sixty per cent goes to rival nations.
The United States suffers under none
of these distractions and limitations.
We require for continuous and in
creasing prosperity, not so much any
particular tariff schedules, as the
general, vital, conserving principle
of protection, practically applied
and prudently adjusted to the indus
tries and interests of all sections and
classes.-Wool Record.

The everlasting seal controversy
still bothers the administration, fills
the newspapers and bores the public.
This government has no interest in
the protection of seals, and should
abandon them to their fate. One
American company is permitted to
kill all the seals it wants to and no
one else is allowed to kill any. The
company refuses to pay the govern
ment for its privileges, and even if
it did, the amount would not cover
the expense of protecting the herds.
England gets all the benefits, the
skins being dressed there, and the
United States puts up the expenses.
1t is high time for this government
to quit guarding Behring sea for
England and Canada, and policing
Cuban waters for Spain. The sensf-
bic thing to. do is sim ply to permit
the killing of seals by any American
citizen. In two years the herds
would be extermined, and the ques-
ton forever settled.
