The Solitary Reaper.

Gan Old Favorite.}
Behold her, single in the field,
Yon solitary Highland lass!
Reaping and singing by herself,
Stop here, or gently pass!
Alone she cuts and binds the grain,
And Sings melancholy strain;
oh listen! for the vale profound
is OYerfloWing with the sound.
No nightingale did ever chant
More welcome notes to weary bands
OF travellers in some shady haunt,
Among Arabian sands:
Such thrilling voice was never heard
In sDging-time from the cuckoo-hird,
Breaking the silence of the seas
Among the fartliest Hebrides.
VIII no one tell me what she sings?
Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow
For old, unhappy, far-off things,
And battles long ago:
Or is it some more humble lay,
Familiar matter OF to-day?
Some natural sorrow, loss, or pains
That has been, and may be again?
Whate'er the theme, the maiden sang
As If her song could have no ending;
4 saw her singing at her work,
And Ger the sickle bending.
/ listen'd, motionless and stilli
And when mounted up the hill,
The music ia my heart ] bore.
Long after it was heard no more.

CURRENT COMMENTS.

Senator Morgan regards the opposl'
tlon to his bill for the Nicaragua canal
as purely obstructive, intended to pre-
vent the canal being built at all. He
could prove that fact if his bill had
provided for direct government con-
struction, ownership and operation,
which 1t does not, says the San Fran
cisco Star. If the canal admits even
the little finger of private corpora
tion and it becomes law, that corpora
ton will get away with the whole
property, and it will follow the ex-
ample of the Panama route in becom-
ing part of transportation trust with
the Southern Pacific.
A brilliant light has been cast on
the actual cost of transportation ser
vice by the contracts for the trans
portation of 1900 New York soldiers
from San Francisco to that city. The
rate is s19S to Sacramento and $l6.3o
thence to Ogden-about 800 miles. But
from Ogden to New York city they are
to be carried 1,925 miles for $3.50. The
first rate, over a line controlled by
the Southern Pacific monopoly, is
nearly two cents per mile, the other
is but little over half cent. Tne
rate OF $1.99, from here to Sacramento,
is 40 cents more than the regular sec
ond-class rate. The Pullman COM
pany made no bid, but will charge the
regular extortionate rate OF s20.50
extra.

The only way to regulate a natural

One Dlmeulty Right OF.

JContributed by Laboring Man,
When Governor Tanner said that he
took the course at Virden that he did
because he believed that under the cir
cumstances his official judgment die
tated the same to him as the best, he
gave probably the strongest defense OF
his action--one that is not likely to be
successfully assailed; certainly not by
Indictment that proceeding, on calm
er thought, appearing to be evidently
the wrong way to take the governor to
account.
But when Mr.. Tanner approaches
the most difficult task Of suggesting
what laws shall be framed to prevent
the recurrence of such conditions as
made Virden possible, he is not so hap
py In his selection, measured by the
standard Of feagib;lity. A few days
ago he said
eve have in Illinois $4,000 miners
and 10000 railroad men. The late
labor trouble in my state was not a
tight against negro laborers, as 1t has
been reported, but was simply a fight
against tho principle of men invading
our state from other states under arm
ed protection. l believe the laws Of
immigration should apply as between
the states as well as between different
countries"
Application Of federal immigration
laws to removal from one state into
another is the suggestion. Letting
aside discussion of the merits or de-
merits of such rule, it is pertinent to
note just what must be done to make
such application possible. The four
teenth amendment to the constitution
of the United States, which went In
to effect July 2S. 1868. provides that:
All persons born or naturalized in
the United States, and subject to the
jurisdiction thereof, are citizens OF the
United States, and Of the state where
in they reside. No state shall make OF
enforce any law which shall abridge
the privileges or immunitfes Of citi-
zens OF the United States"
What are the privileges or immun-
tiles of citizens of the United States ??
& Part / of section Q of article " Of the
federal constitution defines some oi
them as follows:
The citizens Of each state shall be
entitled to all privileges and immuni-
ties OF citizens in the several states
Very short. It means that any cit
iseR Of Alabama has exactly the same
standing u illinois as has native oi
Illinois Nhl, has never been outside
the boundaries OF Illinois. The amend.
inent first quoted was adopted after
the civil war for the specific purpose
of extending to citizens Of color Che
same right enjoyed by whites undei
the part of article ~ quoted.
It follows that revision OF th.
fundamental law of the nation would
be necessary to accomplish even SC
apparently easy a thing as Gov. Tan.
AST suggestion.
Considerations such as this show
