6 THE BEMI-WEEKLY ROBESONIAN. J ROWLAND DEPARTMENT, Oko. K. McNkili. Nkiij. Smith Managers - Y have read with a nine hud opportunity t rare as vt loast tin1 arguments for .mil gainst tlii ap)ropriaf ion to Tho Southern to carry tho fast mui from ashinirton city to .:v Orleans and roaehed tin.' con elusion that the ovi'inini'iit should in uke tlio appropriation Other or briirhtur liirhts on the subject might lead us to change our opinion. In view of the char acter of the service rendered ti the public, and the extent of it, and in view of the extra cost that is obviously entailed by it, we think it should be continued as tieretolore. Ol course mere is reason to think it will he. for ward is the movement of today To discontinue it would be Koinjjj backward. People want and are gointf to have daily papers and have them as soon after they leave the press .is they can yet them. There are centres of ttews such as Washington and New York from which in this fast age business men and the masses as well want to hear at the earliest practicable hour. On the face of this matter it appears to us to be unreasonable to argue that this sort of fast mail ser vice will be rendered without as truly as with pay from the gov ernment. A full discussion of the matter would involve the use of more space than we can give to one subject. Good and true men are lined upon either side of the question. Our opinion is only worth so much as our judg The precise point in popular language around which the bat tie rages in the struggle over the railway rate bill in the Senate is, has Congress the jxiwer, under the Constitution, to forbid the United States courts issuing an injunction to intercept the en forcement of specified rates in any given case when ordered by the Inter-State Commerce Com mission sending an appeal to the courts from its finding. Senator Knox and others are contending that Congress has no such power under the Constitution. Senator Bailey , of Texas, and others, ar gue Congress is vested with this constitutional right. We inter ject here the view thatjCongress ought to have the power if it has not. Reasons for this would lead us astray. We have not had time to read studiously the arguments nor to delve into the subject in dependently. The presence and power of injunctions was found necessary very quickly after laws were first made and society be gan to take on some of the com plexity now seen in all directions. The maintenance of rights makes injunctions invaluable to courts. They must be conserved. Some amendment to the law under de bate will no doubt be made whereby the forms of procedure will not delay unduly the en forcement of the law as ascer tained by the Inter State Com merce Commission. That is the. point. It is a bad bird that will fou! its own nest, is the substance of a proverb. The meaning is pro found and far reaching and its correctness stands among men unchallenged. Therefore it is exceedingly disgusting and dis reputable to see a fellow defam ing in any way his own brother, sister, mother or family. yThere is no danger of any los. of re spect, much leas of degreWtion, for a fellow to stand up for his brother or sister by blood when under indictment by the State i-r any sort of crime how- wi vile and revolting. There u. manifold illustrations oft !. i jot this fundament 1 -The township that w . .u.l . the support of its o vn man for office who is unquestionably on a pur with other aspirants does an ugly thinir' and loses reputation thereby. The county that poses in effort, whether by positive or negative iiftion to defeat its own man. other things being equal, forfeits more or less of its repu tation. Hence we find to be as it should be, that townships, coun ties and States, stand up loyally and solidly for their own men. An unininisterial gentleman of culture and no little wit and inUch sense of the rediculous was mistaken by a gospel hungry saint jf another name for a min ister of his own faith on the road thus: "Sav! can't you preach for us some time? To whicl came the pleasing and surprising renlv: "Yes. when?" The third Sunday in the month'' was named as the date as the traveller drove on in ttie clouu 01 uusi ieawng the mistaken brother glad at heart. Hut our friend who made the appointment in so much hil arity has sowed some seeds that may give him trouble. At any rate he loses no time in telling the minister upon occasion for whom he was mistaken of the appointment, and how it hap pened fully expecting that lie would hear the story joyously and agree to till the pulpit prompt ly. But it is never possible to tell exactly what other folks think of us until there is an occasion for them to show their hand. To the unutterable chagrin of our facetious friend, the minister, to put it mildly, had never found any pulchritude in him at all and hence turned off in disgust at the mistake.

We asked why? He said "Cause dis is good Friday and dis fertilizer is so loud." "Does you believe in good Fri day? " We replied yes, when the weather was good for bean planting. which he has taught for some time. He has made many friends in Kobeson county in the time he has been in the county, who will will regret to see him leave our midst.
