The Only Interview Buchanan Had
With His Vice President.

Win AIS wee HreHtuSfsS
Vice President Stevenson used to tell
G. story which John G. Breckenridge
had told him to illustrate the tradition

the man whose principle business ii Is
to wait for the possible death OF the
president, in order that ne may take

3 ffs ssideass m the early TALL OF
1860, when B1itha6a1s term vas near
ing an end, amid the gathering clouds
of war, Vice President Breckinridge
received an urgent summons to the
White House. He responded at once,
thinking that at last the president
wanted his advice on the momentous
questions then pending, When he ar
rived he was shown into the presi-!
dents room, and Mr.. Buchanan, who
was alone, called his private secretary!
and instructed him to see that they.
Were not disturbed by anybody during.
the important conference which was to
follow.
When the private secretary had with,
drawn, the president unlocked the pri-
vate drawer in his desk, took out a.
manuscript, sat down with great So
lemnity, and said to Vice President!
Breckenridge, in his most impressive
manner, I want to read you the draft
Of my Thanksgiving day proclamation
and to get your opinion Of it." il
The vice president controlled his IA
cial muscles, listened respectfully and,
seriously made some complimentary
remarks about the important docu-II
ment, and, with his customary cour-
tesy, bowed and smiled his way out from
the only interview to which he was
ever invited by President Buchanan

THE REMEDY FOR TRUSTS.

When the recent legislature passed
their so-called anti trust law, THE
CAUCASIAN promptly denounced it
rs q sham and a fraud; and said that
it would never be effective in break
ing up single trust. We pointed
out that there was one strong para
graph in the bill as introduced by its
author, Mr.. Stevens, namely, the
paragraph declaring contracts made
by trusts void and depriving them of
the use Of the courts in enforcing
such vicious fraudulent contr acts
By such . provision is about the on
ly elective way that ; state can deal
with trusts. At best, any law that q
state can pass is simply q cheese
pairing process; but the legislature
struck out from the Stevens bill the
only paragraph in it that contained
q particle of vitality or effectiveness.
Ofcourse the trusts that contributed
to the Democratic campaign fund
demanded that this should be done
and it was done.
The law is such . shameless fraud
that, so far as We have seen, not q
single paper in the State, not even
the Charlotte Observer, has attemp-
ted to defend it. In fact it is gener.
ally conceded that it is not worth the
paper It 10 written on. We regret

From Chicago Tribune, Maya
The friends of Admiral SAMPSON

that Commodore Schley was not in

the statement. While the BROOKLYN
