ATTORNEY GENERAL M'KENNA,
From Leslie's Weekly,

From Leslie's Weekly.
If 1t be true that President Mckinley
was warned in time by the best lawyers
in the senate not to nominate Attorney
General Mc<enna for a place ON the SUI
preme Court Bench then the president
must be held responsible for the conse
quences of his ill-judged act. AS attorney
general, Judge McKenna had two oppor-
tunities to distinguish himself. One was
in the Interpretation of Section % of the
Dngley bill, and the other was in taking
prompt action In defence of the govern
ment's rights in the Union Pacific safe.
Up to the last moment no one knew
what he would do in either case, and
that he did do was spoiled by his hesita-
tion and delay The protest against his
confirmation is of such ii nature that the
senate cannot refuse to listen to it. Some
of the most distinguished lawyers of the
Pacific coast have protested against con-
flrmation OH the ground that ne is
politician rather thar lawyer; and that
his record proves him to be unfit for
place on the Supreme Court Bench. He
was on the California circuit when the
railroad riots occurred in California, and
an attempt was made to secure an m
junction against the rioters. The parties
interested telegraphed from the east, urg-
ing that the case be brought before Mt
and capable Judge. McKenna's name was
mentioned. and telegram was received
from California objecting to a hearing
before him on the ground that "McKennl
has neither backbone nor side-bones." :"
When congress called for the production
of all the papers in the railroad riot
trouble. this telegram was included
among those that were printed. but some
kindly hand--it is said it was that of At
torney General Olney-was promptly in
terposed, and the printed pamphlet was
revised before many copies of II reached

Fraud Under Warrant of Law .

on Jan. 3 the voters of Louisiana
will pass upon a proposition to hold a
new constitutional convention. 1t is
assured that the convention will be
called and that it's primary work will
be to enact such a suffrage qualifica-
tion as will forever put it out of the
power of the negro element in the
states population. whose present vot-
ing strength is estimated at 10000, to
dominate the politics Of Louisiana or
in fact. To take any considerable part
hereafter in the government of the
state.
The New Orleans correspondent Of
the New York Sun, after reviewing a
number of the proposed eXpedents by
which this end will be gained without
literal disobedience of the Fifteenth
amendment of the Constitution of the
United States, gives it as his opinion
that the method most likely to be
adopted will require that a citizen, to
have the right to vote. must be able to
read understandingly and to write a
! certain number of words in the Eng
lish or French language and pay taxes
| on at least $500 worth of property. He
adds: The present vote of the state
| is; White. l25,0OO; negro. 10000. BY
| the above change perhaps 10000 whites
and 100000 negroes would be disfran-
| chised leaving the vote: Whites, l05.-
| 900; negroes. 10000. The negroes would
he in a minority in all parishes in the
| state save two. and would cut a very
small figure in politics"
Doubtless as a sop to Northern sem
| timent, the advocates of this combined
educational and property qualification
| pledge themselves to- provide more lib
| orally than ever before for the free
school system ana assert their conf
| dence that with the bulk of the negro
vote eliminated, the white vote, natur-
ally inclined toward the principle of
! Protection, will speedily become Re-
| publican. There would be some show
of fairness in the educational qualif-
cation If ample opportunity We're sub
sequently afforded illiterates to acquire
sufficient education to pass muster
But inasmuch as the election machin-

tations would in all probability be used
by these whites as mantle 10 cover
multitude of electoral sins.
As to the property qualification, while
some eminent men uphold it i'm the.

The Loud Bill,

Some interesting figures are present
ed by the San Francisco Chronicle in
an argument against the Loud postal
reform bill. That journal comedies the
necessity of putting the postal system
on a self-sustaining basis but it con-
tends that in endeavoring to reach this
result by a re-classihcation of mail
matter Mr. Loud has overlooked a
much more effective means-namely,
compelling the railroad companies to
transport mail as cheaply as express
l companies using the same trains carry
Sackages
Vat the present time" asserts the
ChTonlcle, "the hauling of the mails
costS an average Of s cents a pound,
whilA express packages are profitably
carried over the same routes and at
the same speed and distance at cent
per pound. 1t appears from recent sta
tistics that the Pennsylvania railroad
in 1896 was allowed $4,000 for trans
porting thirty tons of mail per day
from Pittsburg to Chicago, an aver
age OF $40 per ton, or 8 cents per ton
per mile. ThiA was not earned by fast
mail service, Lhe average speed of
trains being twefty-six miles per hour,
a rate which has been equaled by the
speed Of fast freight. The same com
pensation goes to tn Vanderbilt lines.
Both companies, however, carry fast
freight at $40 OF mt per ton per
mile.
THE cause of the postl deficit, as is
clear to every one who ha studied the
question, lies in these ra~oad over
charges. But they are not 1nfned to
