SUPREME COURT"

The Raleigh News and Observer, a
newspaper OF the free silver persuasion,
raises the cry that the Supreme Court
Of the United States Is IN danger. This
court" SAYS the News and Observer. has
almost always held the balances evenly,
except when Grant packed it at the die
tation OF the railroads to make it easier
for them TO pay their debts. 1t is being
packed again by the same interests"
Yea, yea. II IS a terrible thing to
.'pack the court" when the Republicans
are doing it, but it did not seem such a
terrible thing TO our North Carolina con-
temporary and its associates a little while
ago. when the Chicago Convention threat
ened TO pack the court in the interest
of an income tax law.
IL the Republicans are guilty OF this
thing which our Raleigh contemporary
charges. their act cannot be too strongly
denounced. But those who made and
supported the Chicago platform cannot
complain, for that platform threatened
to do this very thing.

Mr Rrrnn,s Snrech I'm Boston.

All the Boston newspapers spoke ap-
provingly OF the address Of Mr.. Joseph
Bryan on the money question, delivered
on Friday evening before the Reform
club of that city. His plea for State banks
of issue was well received. and made a
deep impression upon his hearers II the
reports Of the newspapers are 10 be taken
IN evidence.
The Daily Advertiser says. editorially:
In the discussion of the Monetary
Commissions plan. IL IS OF the first inn
DOrtauce that an the conditions demand
ing treatment should be put clearly be-
fore us. or this account, a graphic pic
ture Of the distressing lack Of banking
facilities in the South. u as MT.
Joseph Bryan editor Of the Richmond
NaD Times. presented before the He-
form Club last night. is a notable ana
helpful contribution to the momentous
debate.

reucv fight. make. by their strong con-
trast. the welcome of this Southern edi-
tor. who has 80 vigorously championed
the gold STANDARD against the heaviest
odds. the heartier. and command espe-
cial attention for his earnest plea.
The Herald reports the address in full
with this Introductory:
Currency Conditions OF the Southern
states. and the Plan Of the Monetary
Commission" the theme or the dis
tlnguished Southern speakers VINO ad-
dressed the members and guests or tho
Massachusetts Reform Club last even
ing. at its meeting at Ioung's Hotel
proved to be one Of the most interesting
subjects that has been discussed before
that club for some time. The speakers
were Mr.. John W. Fries, Of North Caro-
lima. q member Of the Monetary Com
mission. and Mr.. Joseph Bryan, editor
Of the Richmond Times. one Of the lead
ing Southern newspapers which were OPP
posed to free silver in 1895.
The Globe says:
Ii is an unusual thing IN the dignifed
Massachusetts, Reform Gu for the mem-
bcrs TO rise I'm their places at the BAN
quet board and cheer d speaker.
when they do it the speaker IN
deed have impressed them strongly. This
was the case with the members OF the
club last evening when Mr.. Joseph Bryan,
editor OF the Richmond Na) Times, con-
cluded his address on the money ques-
ton:
AR. BRYAN is one of the few Southern
editors who espOused the cause OF the
gold standard in the last presidential
campaign. His speech last evening had
little In it relating to gold, but he did
point out in a powerful manner the con-
ditlon Of things IN the South ana the
distress IN that section due to the lack
of q sufficient currency. .
He strongly advocated the repeal OF
the state bank tax. which, If done ne
sofd the south would take care OF itself.
Tho demand for free silver I'm the South,
he said. was not due TO a desire on the
BART OF the people to repudiate their Just
debts. but to get a currency to which
they are entitled.
AT the conclusion Of Mr.. Bryan's ad-
dress the company rose and gave him
three cheers. 1t was followed by three
cheers for Mr.. Fries and North Carolina.

MIR. WIrHERs' RAILROAD COMMITS
SION BILL.

.o usge recently heard very little
complaint Of the railroads in Virginia.
Some years back there was a good deal
OF talk in some parts OF the State Of I'M
lust discrimination by the railroads, but
it seems TO have died out, n for several
wears the people ana the railroads have
seemed to get on very well together. II
this be n fact. is it wise for the Legisla-
ture 10 burden the railroads with a COM
mission bill that will embarrass them in
all Of their business. cause them infinite
loss and produce friction at every vii
laee ana station in the state? Five years
ago there was reason TO complain OF the
railroads in the state for their inter-
ference with our politics. Their meddle-
some interference with the last senate
rial election produced a stain that has not
yet subsidized. and it left bitternesses and
arrangements between some that VIII
never end on this side OF the grave. But
that seemed 10 be a lesson 10 the rail-
roads and we have heard but little Of
them in connection with politics since.
1t IS true that the president OF one OF the
railroads was accused or endeavoring TO
control his men in voting for Mckinley
but the employees OF the road have testi-
lied with such u animity that they were
left free TO vote as they pleased that the
most ultra partlsans have been con-
strained to abandon TINS charge. we
can safely say. therefore. that the people
Of Virginia and the railroads of Virginia
are now upon exceedingly good terms,
ana that being 50. It looks unwise FOR
the Legislature OF the State to enter upon
a course OF hostility TO the railroads. II
Mr.. Withers' bill Is 10 be seriously
pressed are the railroads TO be blamed
if they use every weapon they can COM
mand 10 defeat its destructive influence

natural tina. that they should again be-
gin 70 take a hand in our politics 10 miti-
CATO it's severity as far as possible? AS
VIC . ave said, our politics have seemed 10
be free from railroad influence TO a great
extent for the past four years. But II the
policy OF tho Virginia Legislature is 10

TT WAS TIMES SENTIMENT.

VIII the Richmond Times never cease
Iawning upon the p~lutOcrats2 Hear
how it talks, In q State boiling with
Organism:
"One law there should be for all
alike. The rich should be punished for
breaking that law, and the poor should
be punished for breaking IL. Ihefe
should not be a special law for the con
troll of the wealthy and the successful
any more than there should be a spe-
cial law for the control Of the poor II
the moderately well-tO-do.'
Can sentiments like these be uttered
without sending a %congestive chill into
the very midrim and marrow OF the Old
Dominion? If wealth il not a crime
what is crime2 n success ought nor

TUESDAY. JANUARY G5. 1885,
THE LEGISLATURES AND THE OF
FICEs.

Some time ago we said in these col
umns that u was lnconccivable that the
Democrats were going to be led again IN
1900 by Altgeld, Tillman and men Of that
stripe.
The Portsmouth star replies that it IS
not only conceivable but probable. That
the LEGISLATURE Of Virginia has decided
that tho one and only requisite 10 q
piace IN the judiciary of this state Is
loyal TO T1ilmanism and Altgeldism'
That great learning-sound Democracy
and irreproachable character alone VIII
not do. II must be Tillmanism and Alt
geldism. loudly avowed. or no 1udgeship.
Isn't The Times aware OF the fact
asks our Portsmouth contemporary
that no Democrat who in 1896 endeavor-
ed to save his party from all that is
comprohended in Tillmanism and Alt
-gelesem can to-day hold Office i'm Nir-
einia? Surely all this is indicative that
somebody is active with a view to the In
terests of T1llman and Altgeld and what
they stand for in 1900. All this is fact.
Txpletives. explosions, EXPLANATIONS in
any amount cannot change or mitigate
them"
We do not see IT that way. There are
in the Legislature Of Virginia men of eN-
treme views who have no liberation for
any Democrat who does not bow the
knee TO the silver idol. But they are in
the minority. From all that we can learn
the major portion OF the members OF that
body entertain none but feelings of re-
gard and respect for those Democrats who
in 1896 conscientiously refused 10 give
their support to the Chicago platform.
ii is true that the Legislature has not
been disposed TO put into office men who
did not support the Chicago platform. I'M
less they showed signs Of repentance.
But that course Is not at all unusual.
we think IL a most unfortunate thing
that party spirit should run so high as
that "A Democrat thoroughly competent
and having the confidence and support
of his community should be defeated for
a position on the bench simply because
ne did not vote for the nominee Of the
party in 1896. But. we repeat. that such a
thing should be is not at all strange or
unusual. Party men I'm all ages have in
sisted upon party regularity, and that
party patronage shall be bestowed upon
those who stand by the organization.
The party men ia the Legislature Of
Virginia. aGhering 10 this principle. have
said that those who refused TO support
the party nominee i'm 1896. and who de-
rlared that they would do the same thing
over again under like circumstances
shall not receive fayors from that body.
THAT is all there is IN it. That is what
party organization means and what it has
meant from the foundation of this GOV
eminent. Members OF the Legislature
whom we know 10 be opposed 10 free sill
YER. but who believe in party orgaaiza-
ton. have taken this stand.
We say to our Portsmouth contempor-
AIRY. therefore, hat this action Of tho
Legislature does not by any means imply
that all the Democrats of that body are
welded TO Aitgeldism and Tillmanism.
II simply means that they are standing
by party regularity.
