ILLUSTRATES CHARACTER.

IT is the sid e-1ights IN a mans life
that really illustrate character. The
public acts are well ordered and be-
tray no littleness and illustrate no IN
nate greatness. 1t is IN little thinSs
and in unexpected things that you
see the true character of the nan
This truth is we'll illustrated in an
incident in the career Of Stuyvesant
Fish removed from the presidency
of the Illinois Central by Hartman
because Fish believed in running the
railroad honestly while Hartman be-
lieves in exploiting a railroad to make
the insiders rich. Here is the Incl
dent illustrating the best phase OF
the character of Mr.. Fish as recorded
in the New York Sun:
IAN interesting incident in Stuyve-
SAINT Fish's career as president of the
Illinois Central Railroad is being told
in Wa street. Mr.. Fish got a job for
a young negro as porter IN one OF
the Pullman cars. The porter, on a
trip over an Eastern road, threatened
to thrash a MAJ who was annoying
a girl passenger. The girl was trav-
cling alone. and the man had been
drinking. The offensive passenger
was a near relative of one of the off,
GERS of the road, and a few days af-
ter the incident the porter was dis
charged by the Pullman company.
The young negro wrote to Mr.. Fish
to let him know that he hadn't lost
his Job through any fault of his own.
Mr.. Fish then wrote a letter to Rob-
ert T. Lincoln, president of the Pull
mar explaining the cir
cumstances and notifying him that
unless the negro was reinstated with
in a. certain number of hours the
Pullman service on the Illinois Cen
trail would be terminated. The negro
went back"
The recording angel. is said to drop
a tear that bIots out the sins that
spring from no unworthy motive. If
hat is true-and let US hope it is
the truth-there is little doubt that
when Mr.. Fish resented the insult of
Harahan at the meeting of Illinois
Central stockholders, the Recording
Angel left no trace of the sin, if sin
it a If ever a mar had provo
cation for the punishment admins
tered il was Mr.. Fish. The latest
story denies that Mr.. Fish struck
rah with his fist, but the Incl
lent IS stated to have been that Mr..
Fish ''shook him like a rat and
choked him until he grew purple in
the face and his eyes bulged out"

MOST COTTON GOES ABROAD.

The increase in spindles and looms
in the South has been very great in
recent years, but the mills in England
have likewise greatly increased their
capacity so that the demand for cot
ton abroad as we'll rs at home in
grasses, while the use of cotton godos
everywhere makes a steadily growing
demand for cotton. Col. VIM. F. King,
superintendent of the New York Cot
ton Exchange. gives out a statement
showing that during the cotton year
ending on the 31st of August, the
mills of this country took 5.132,S80
bales, an increase yer the preceding
year Of 3SO,467 bales, and there were
exported S,364,478 bales, an increase
of 1~,777,497 bales. Northern and
Canadian mills took 2,63S.311 bales.
an increase of 202,32O. and Southern
mills took 2,494,56 bales. an increase
of 178,147. Commenting on the above
figures, CoL King says:
Had the sup ly Of labor proven
sufficient the absorption by Southern
mills would nave increased the splen-
did industrial exhibition shown by
them this year. In the face of ad-
verse, and in many instances new.
conditions, the manufacturers of the
South have pressed steadily forward
in the upbuilding of a great industry.

THE SECRET OF 1T.

The Federal Judges IN Nebraska
ana Missouri refused to en5oin the
new passenger rate law. The rail-
roads did not ask Federal Judges in
any other Northern state 70 annul
the State laws pending any contest
they should make in the courts. In
deed in most OF the States the railroads
obey the law without making any
contest, knowing tina they can make
rair earnings on the two cent rate.
80 far in some of the States. the op-
Grafton Of the law has already shown
an increase in passenger receipts. But
IN North Carolina. Virginia and Ala
bama the railroads are using every.
power to defeat the operations of
the law in the Federal court. Why?
This question has been often asked,
gives h answer:
The Raleigh News and Observer
says: Nowhere except in the South
have Federal Judges attempted to pre-
vent the educed passenger rates. Is
this because most Of the Southern Fed
eral judges were railroad lawyers be-
fore they We're appointed to the bench ?
or IS IT the administration
Wisnea 10 let Mr.. j. Pierpont Morgan
nA the rate IN the South, thus punish
ing II because il dares to voice its
conVlctiOn?" We think the reason is
10 be found in the expectation that the
resistance Of the Southern States to
the ed1cts Of Federal judges would
revive memories of secession, and thus
excite the almost extinct prejudices
OF the Northern people. AS q matter
of fact, that very thing has happened.
2 lumber Of the Northern
having called attention TO the reawak-
ened "rebellious" disposition of the
South"
This is no doubt the true answer.
The railroads wish to have a revolu-
ton in control of public service cor
porations by which the Federal gov
eminent alone can regulate them. and
they are seeking to make the test in
southern States in the hope that they
can help their cause by an appeal TO
a dormant sectionaIism. This Is appar-
ent because, with a unanimity hardly
spontaneous, all the railroad papers
have represented those Southern
States as "in a state IF rebellion" as
'resorting to notification" and get
ting ready for another secession"
The matter is one that ought to be
tried on its merits but it is appar-
ent that the railroads are ready TO do
anything to defeat reguIation-even
to invoke a dead bloody shirt wrong
to the South. If MT. Finley and Mr..
Andrews and Mr.. Thorn are sincere in
their devotion to the section thai gave
them birth-or rather if they think
more of their people and their rights
than of the alien owners Of the South
ern RailWay-they would not tolerate
this sectional injustice to North Car
olina. Virginia and other Southern
States. But what can we expect ever
from Southern men who are j. Pier
pont Morgan's Southern "overlords'
when they either antagonize or silent
" a~cquiesce in the freight rates that
discriminate so much against North
Carolina towns as to dwarf and destroy
factories and wholesale houses while
enriching and building up k con-
| Germs in Virginia?
