BRIGHT'S INFLUENCE.

Fifty years ago there was douht
whether or not the southern conteu-
eracy should be recognized by the ma
lions of the earth as a separate and
independent nation. in England there
was in many quarters a strong desire
for southern success. Was 1t to he

of the seltislness of the cotton manu-
%facturers Of Yorkshire and Lancashire

gle should he determined in the way
which would most readily give them
cotton to spin. But the manufacturers
the men who owned the mills and We're

out of the cotton industry were COM
paratively few in number. There were
others moro numerous who had ever
more vital interests in the subject.
The cotton spinnerS, the mel and Wo-
men who worked in the mills for

and while cotton was piled high on
southern docks, practically none of it
could he shipped. The English mills
were idle. In consequence the Eng
lisb workmen were idle. This meant
more to them than the temporary ceS-
sation of prcfts. 1t means being de-

no part, 4 war over questions sue as
did not exist among them. their
means of livelihood was cut off. and
they and their children suffered. 1t
speaks volumes for the influence of
John Bright over his fellows that he
was able to prevent them bringing

milton of the confederaCy, and Ven

1t is the Washington correspondent

THE PROPOSED EXTRA SESSION

If it is possible to avoid an extra SEES
sion of the legislature without involv-
ing the state in other complications
the governor will naturally desire to
do that. AS the case now stands he
believes that an extra session is likely
to be necessary in order to provide
for the ELECTION of a United States
senate in a manner in accordance
with the new constitutional provision.
If he can So legally he will limit the
session tn the consideration of that
n subject. He is now investigating
that phase Of the situation.
The thing that is likely to make an
extra session necessary is the disin-
clination Of the southern members of
the two houses of congress to assent
to the enactment of a law, ever as a
temporary measure, prescribing, un-
der the federal law, the procedure to
he followed in the election Of senators.
Congress has this power. But con-
eress does rot exercise it. and a good
many of the southern democrats would
think that the very foundations of
the universe We're certain to he de-
stroyed if congress were to exercise 1t.
Consequently, while congressional ac-
ton should straighten out the situa-
ton easily n expeditiously, the
chances are that nothing of the kind
will be done, and it will be for the
states to make their arrangements or
take chances on having their next
senatorial election tangled up.

\ NEW RATE DECISION.

The people of the entire northwest
are greatly interested in the new rate
decision which has just been mad
which males a l~ong-souellt adjust
ment of rates hetween Duluth and the
southern Lake ports. Until now the
lake n rail rate to Chicago n Mill
waukee has been materially lower
than the rate on the same class of
goods to Duluth. In one class quoted
the rates are respectively 50 and 6S
cents. of course that mean more
business fo.' the southern cities and
the line sought of which the lake and
rail rate To those cities, plus local
rates TO the destination, would he less
than the combination rate ny WAY of
Duluth. The field of Chicago and Mil
waukce WIS extended and that of pu-
luth restricted.
The recent decision abolishes this
difference. 1t provides that the rate
to Duluth shall not exceed the rate
to Chicago and Milwaukee,. The result,
of this will be an extension of the ter
ritory into which goods ma ybe prof.
itahly shipped from Duluth, and ii
gives the ncrthern city the advantage
to which its geographical position en-
titles it.
We nave not yet seen an estimate
made of just what difference there
will be to the people of his territory
but it seems evident that if the rate
through Duluth is reduced, there will
be a corresponding reduction in rates
on all goods shipped into this terri
tory through Duluth.

The burning of Mrs Shelladay was
an unfortunate affair. She was one
of the best known women in this
section, her kindly disposition having
endeared her In the hearts of all with
whom she came into contact.
Mrs. Shelladay was seated with her
daughter, her son-in-law. and the
couples two children in a room where
there was a large hanging lamp. It
was this lamp which caused the trou-
Bile. Without warning one of the sup
ports gave away and the lamp tilted
toward the side of the table where
Mrs. Shelladay was seated. Mr.. White
jumped up. and both he and the aged
woman attempted to catch the lamp.

oil il contained was set on fire,
spreading TO lace curtains separating
the room from the reception hall.
These caught fire. and Mr.. White
snatched them from the pole. breaking

throw the curtains out Of the door,
and in his excitement threw them in
the direction of Mrs Shelladay, with
the result that the flames communi-

rugs were wrapped around her body,
but they burned like tinder One Of
