Then when the Southern treated the commission with "contempt" and it did Just what It waa commanded not to -do, where ana what did the commission doT It "fell down" and groveled In the dust be fore the mighty Southern and the Federal "Jedge" and took "all back."

It ought to have exhausted an tne pow er of the State to enforce it If It did not have the power, the order should never have been made. As It has transpired. It Is as humiliating one way aa the other, to the people of this rood State. But what else can be expected from Mr. McNeill when the people see his candidacy, managed by a railroad lawyer, aided and pushed by all the Influence of the railroads, and ne ria Ing about In the private cars of the officials of the Southern? The people demand a change, and they are go ing to make a change, unless Col. Pearaall, the railroad lawyer and man ager for Mr. McNeill, packs the coun ty conventions with his -"Instructions." Freight rates and passenger rates will never be lower, or higher assess ments on railroad property for taxa tion will never be made while Mr. Mc Neill remains on the commission. Now Is the time for people to rally to the support or Hon. jacoo a. ixng, ana place him at the head or the commls sion. He will never make an order that he will not enforce, if It takes all the power of the State to do it He was never known to shirk a duty and he has the courage to do his duty always, and he cannot be "Influenced by corporate power or Federal "Jedges". to back down from his po sition, or from doing the right thing.

If It were a Republican row It would have been the subject of great scare heada In those papers and their editors would use It to point a moral and adorn a tale. To show how the pure-ln-heart (?) who represent th Democratic ma chine have been swindling their un suspctlng brothers, I sppend below the preamble and rsolutlons passed at a meeting held about a week ago In a township In this county, and the sentiment la shared largely by a num br of the most wealthy and promi nent cltlxena of the town and county; yet th Democratic paper published In Llnconlton, fearing to further stir up the anlmala, haa not dared to even mention It, lest It make matters worse.
