That is a spectacle that no liberty low

We are quite willing that John Ball
should be under the sway of kings as
long as he has weakness for the

forcible extension of monarchieal IN

quite different. There are many Ameri

PRINCE fiENRy'S VISIT.

There are many people disposed to
thInk that we are making too much
fuss over the Prussian Prince. who is
at present the guest Of our country.
They argue that IN extending the glad
hand to Henry we are discredlting
democratic institutions and indirectly
giving aid and comfort to royalty wit1
all its accessories, pomps and oxac-
tons
This is not the cdse In giving proper
welcome to the royal Prussion we are
merely extending the principles Of
hospitality to an eminent foreigner.
In visiting rs, Prince Henry has paid
us a compliment 1t is about the first
time in his life that the Prince has
paid a social visit to the plain people
Heretofore when Henry visited it was
to he the guest of kings or queens or
emperors. Now he is visiting the
American people. Henry never visit
ed the English people, the Russian
people, the Italian people, the Austrian
people. He visited the rulers of those
countries
In coming TO the United States and
mingiing with the people, and study
ing our institutions. the royal foreign
er has recognized in marked way the
sovereignty OF the people. Our people
have promptly caught the idea of his
visit and his welcome is accordingly
cordial.
Besides. from all accounts, Prince
Henry IS a thoroughly good fellow. He
comes of great race of men soldiers,
statesmen, rulers. He is an officer of
ahality himself and his brother il.
perhaps, the foremost European.
There is no sacrifice of democratic
principles in welcomlng the brother OF
the German Emperor. On the contrary
We would register ourselves as Doors
and churls If we failed to recognize
his station and extend to him a greet
ing in accordance with his Importance
and standing IN his own country.

The RAILROAD QUESTION.

An examination of the text of the
TWO bills introduced in Congress for
the regulation of interstate commerce
fails to show that either of them IL
adequate to meet the situation which
confrontS the inter state railroads and
the people of tue country who support
them. The interstate commerce law
has been of no service in putting a
stop TO dishonest railroad administra-
uon. 1t is not necessary to go into the
question whether that result is due 10
the commission or to the law. 1t is
enough that the law. as at present ad-
ministercd, is a failure, and that some
sufficient remedy which win put an
end To rate cXtortion rate dlscrfmina

SUFFRAGE DlSCRlMlNA TON.

The colored citizens Of Boston, or a
part OF them, SO we learn from the
newspapers Of that town, have been
considering "disfranchsement" in the
Southern States. and, of course have
adopted resolutions. A negro meeting
with out oratory and resolutions would
be strange and unnatural. In condemn
ing disfranchisement in the Southern
States the Boston negroes declare:
The ABOVE named States do not mean
10 have a fair vote. The intention is u
prevent all negroes, however, lntelli-
gent or wealthy. from voting ana al
low the ignorant and pauper class of
whites TO vote. that is to say; they
put premium on ignorance. This has
produced an oligarchy. which now
rejgns in the above mentioned States;
thus the grandfather clause" which
has brought forth these tyrants. is the
worst which has ever disgraced a ma
tl0n.
II IS beyond our comprehension how
an educational suffrage clause can be
said to put premium on ignorance"
even, II an exception contained in it
permits some ignorant people to vote.
So lar as the law is concerned il is
Just as easy for a colored man to vote
in any of the Southern States as in
Massachusetts, where these professors
met. for that state has an educational
qualification Tor suffrage also In fact,
it is more stringent than. those of
most other States. for II requires that
the voter shall be able both TO read
and to write. while the common re-
quirement is ability to read only.
On the face of the law, II a negro
desires 10 vote in any Southern State
all he has TO do is to learn to read II
there is any other obstruction than
this requirement it is not in the law,
but in a failure to enforce the law as
II is written. AS il stands it does not
put premium on ignorance On the
contrary II puts a premium on lnteul-
gence. and indeed it has been demon
strated in the South that the provision
leads to unusual efforts TO learn to
read
But the professors say we are in
favor OF an educational or property
qualification if il is enforced on all
alike ny? 1t would disfranchise
the ignorant negro just as completely
as the present laws 90 Of course, the
answer is thai it is unfair to allow
ignorant whites to vote and refuse
ignorant negroes. Grant that to be
true. and the fact still remains that
the ignorant negro can acquire the
right TO vote by learning to read. He Is
no worse of than if the grandfather"
clause did not exist in the States
where it does exist. His only ground Of
complaint is fayoritism to others and
not injury to himself

there was any fun in the matter. You

After imposing sentence upon Steele,
Mayor Robertson warned Emma Pence
as to her future conduct. She was
told that if she is found in the red

Cuban Bill Now Likely
to Pass.

Washington, April 16.--With the
In the house Tuesday afternoon the
leaders announced that all danger OF
the bill being weighted down with un-
desirable amendments was over, and
that they felt assured the bill would
pass in the shape in which. 1t came
from the committee. AS the bill in its
present form Is sure 10 command three
fourths Of the vote of each side of the
horse its passage was certain IL It
successfully passed the stage when
amendments could be offered.
The only cause of anxiety heretofore
has been the possibility that enough
Republicans would join with the DEM
ocrats to overrule the chair and tack
on to the bill an amendment to abol-
ish the differential on refined sugar.
All the energies of the leaders have
been directed, therefore, to bringing
pressure to bear on the recalcitrant
Republicans to induce them to refrain
fro maiding this plan, and last evening
at the close of the session Of the house
II was announced that the entire He
publican delegations from Michigan
and California, who constitute the
head and front of the opposition. had
agreed not to vote to overrule thecmf
agreed not to vote to override the rul-
ing of the chair.
Mr.. Watson Qnd.) who is acting as
the whip for the majority. does not be-
lieve over dozen Republicans at the
outside will join the Democrats on
this proposition. 1t would require
more than twenty Republicans to place
on the bill the amendment which
might endanger its ultimate passage,
as several Democrats, it is understood,
also have declared their intention to
stand by the ruling of the chair.
An unsuccessful effort was made
again by Mr.. Payne to secure an agree
ment to limit the general debate.
When the house adjourned there re-
mained thirty-five members who de-
sire to speak. The debate was with
out particular interest. The speakers
were Messrs. Swanson and White (Ky.)
for the bill and Messrs. s. w. Smith
(Mich.), Dayton. wv. Va), Burgess,
(Tex.), Meyer, Ua.), and Sutherland,
(Ut.) against it.

The committee consisting Of Judge
Isaac II. Taylor, c. c. Bow and w. l..
Davis, to whom was delegated the
power to draft a bill authorizing the
issuing of $175,000 county bonds for
the purpose of raising the necessary

end of Canton to the cemetery, has
not as yet framed the heading. No
action whatever has been taken.
A communication had been sent to
the secretary of the meeting asking
for information. Some of the ques-
tions asked were quite pertinent, it is
said. The committee did not propose
to enter upon an act involving a great
outlay of the countys money and
frame bill of questionable constitu-
tionality without knowing who were
back Of it and what was required.
Mr.. Bow was seen Wednesday.
When asked as to the bill he said:
I'VE have not as yet done anything.

America VIII Pay Good
Share.
WILSON DISCUSSES
Effects of Grain lmposts on
Farmers Of This Country
a --He Prefers Boer
Trnde.

Washington, April 16.-"It is a
reasonable estimate that the United
States will pay half the British tax
levied on breadstuffs," said Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson. 1T has been
a question for almost endless discus
sion to determine where the burden of
such tax rests, and | do not presume
to settle II off-hand by any expression
on the English financial policy. With
out reviving an old debate IL may be
set down as commercially true that
the growers of wheat in the United
States will have to share this burden
with the English taxpayers.
THE Boer war is being driven home
to us in most practical way. If there
is to be a tax of 10 cents hundred
weight on -four, that means that it
amounts TO about 6 cents bushel,
and that approximately the United
States must stand half Of this, or 8
cents a bushel.
II can hardly see how we have any
reason to complain. The United
Kirgoon is the biggest buyer in the
woi,d and she gives us her best ac-
count. We are almost as much inter-
ested in the prosperity of the islands
10 We oiN III "a Bull VI Jul o"h Nouh
try. The laying of these taxes on our
exported breadstuffs brings the matter
right home.
I'VE must share in the payment Of
these taxes. In a sense we have the
same relation with all highly civilized
countries with which we do large bus
mess, but England furnishes the best
example of our direct interest.
"One sees in the newspapers occa-
sionally comments from interested
persons of the profits which this coun-
try is realizing from the sale of ami
mails and other supplies of this nature,
which have been used in African war.
Without viewing any other except the
commercial side of this case il is pro-
per to say that it would be much
more valuable if we were getting our
share of the commerce of the South
African colonies, or republics. than to
be getting war business.
I'm the end it may be suggested that
the United States will furnish much Of
the machinery and material for the re-
habilitation of these desolated coun-
tries, but it would be more profitable
