There is one paper in North Caro- hna that onenlv advocates, as we advocates, learn from an exchange, the oblitera tion of all State lines the abolition of State Governments! and; a Consoli dated Government, of the mosti ap proved plan. It proposes openly to p-ive tne ireaerai orovernmeni, iuu ; i swav throughout the whole land. The teaching m w This is not surprising, of some of the ablest country is that way. writers in the ! i YoU will meet in the foremost periodical publica- tions of the United j States strong government ideas. Ttu j find such ideas in the leading papers. You find them in public addresses, j And what is far more significant! and, dangerous ;tban all these you find the acts of Congress giving color -to such theo ries. The Constitution is violated in spirit and letter everyj session. This is true or the great expounders in the past, and the ablest expounders among the living, are ignorant of the intent and meaning of the organic law that governs. j 'The Blair.bill, and other bills that vote away the public J moneys under the pleas of distress or of benevo lence or what not, is just one of those violations of the Constitution that opens up the way for Centralization and for the destruction of the inde pendence and autonomy of the sev eral States. So the Appalachian Philosopher (for such is the name of the Ashe county paper is only bold er and more open than other ene mies of the Constitution. It seeks to-do by clear and frank advocacy that which is being done under more specious forms. The Constitution is being destroyed gradually but cer tainly. Only last week!

In its first number there fa . pap'er by Prof.Burgess on -The American Commonwealths M& ventures to declare that the tenden cy is steadily towards', a StrongvGo vernment. His words are- that in the coming century now near at hand "the commonwealth will oo- opy . h ow p..oe in our po- litical system, the nation, a nrnucu higher, and the municipalities a much more distinct and independent sphere." The Nation is to beoome everything, and the cities more po tential because they will hold a much "more distinct and independent sphere." But Prof. Burgess goes fart.lir in his vaticination. He says: "It seems tome that we shall then, (in the next century) if not before, be compel led to reformulate our 'cardinal doctrine, and that it will read: the Nation, sola and exclusive sovereign, distributing the powers and functions of government between cen tral organs, commonwealth and municipal itv: and deflnine. euaranteein. and de fending, the fundamental principles of the civil right in accordance with the dictates of the Nation's polmeal ana juristic policy, There you hare it.

Such is the trend, and when the Congress in 1886 violates the Consti tution under any plea whatever it is only hastening the day foretold by the Northern Professor. Is the South ready to see the States wiped . 3 - i-i J r uuii auu a ucuuaiucu iwj;ioiu aj u up at Washington? A BLOW AT CIVIL SERVICE. The opposition to the Civil Service humbug is steadily widening. The Mugwump papers of both sections I try to make the opposite appear, and j whelm the .anti-humbug advocates with ridicule, but it will be all in vain. The true Democrats do not desire that Republicans should hold office when it is possible to get rid. of them. They do not ask that the President should violate law, but they do object to his declaration that he favors the humbug, and its con tinuance after it is made still more j obnoxious to criticismand antagonis- tic to Democratic interests. The elections in the West have opened the eyes of many, although it is said the President is not shaken in the least in his devotion to Civil Service. Representative Howard is reported as saying in a recent interview: "There is no use either in trying lo hood wink the constituents or oppose them. Thedon't want the civil service reform of the Adminstration, and it is no good try ing to convince them that it is the proper thing, and that they ought to want it. The representatives of the people recommend to the heads of the departments men who are worthy and capable, and if any of them are afterward found to be wanting let the heads of the departments remove them from office. That is the civil service reform that is wanted, but when the people elect a Democratic Executive all the offices are wanted for Democrats. The only way to rally the party, and the only way in which it can hold its own in the coming elections. is for the members of the 49th Congress and the candidates for the 50th to admit freely that things are not as they ought to be; that the Administration is a disap pointment, it is not what we expected. let us say, but we are passing gradually to a better state of things.- This is only a period of transition through which we pass to a genuine Democratic regime. That is the only stand to take." The Democratic State Convention has been called to meet at Raleigh on the 25th of August, 1886. The object of this Convention is to select candidates for the Supreme Court and Superior Court Benches. Of course a platform will .be adopted. The Convention should be very care ful how it commits the Democracy of North Carolina, so far as sounding resolutions can commit them, to any doctrine that antagonizes a strict and fair construction of the Constitution of the United States. It should be very careful not to attempt to pledge the Democracy of the State to the support of the Blair bill or any other measure that tens of thousands of in telligent voters believe to be uncon stitutional, impolitic, unwise and de structive. If the Democrats are to ' succeed in the approaching campaign there must be unity, harmony, a "pull altogether. We ' publish elsewhere the list of District Committees. It will be seen that the several Judicial Districts are requested to hold Dis- tnct conventions for the purpose of recommending candidates for th " - - Judgeships of the Superior Court.

Association . was- secretly de bating the expediency ot tieingup all of the Surface roads of the city,, and it was not until after 1 o'clock - this morning that a determination was reached. .. An -order was then prepared and sent to the officials of the Local Assemblies, calling out - the men on all of the street-car lines, save those on Eighth and Ninth Avenues, Four o'clock this morning was the hour fixed for the tie up, and the order was obeyed. ' The Fourth Avenue line employes said afterwards to a reporter that they had no ground of complaint against the company. They had five or six non-Union men, but they were with the employes and would be initiated into the Union next Saturday night. They were laying off now solely because of the geneial order to do so. - The Superintendent of the road said he knew his men were entirely satisfied, but he bad heard there was a belief that the roads had combined. There was, he be lieved, no truth in any statement to that effect. lie had no one to consult In this matter, as Mr. Vanderbilt was cn the ocean, as was one director who would be likely to act in such cases. Be did not care whether his men were members of the Union or not, so long as the cars were running, They would make no attempt to run any cars. The tie-up would cost the road in losses at least $2,000 per day. The doors of the Btables were closed to-day, and the horses were cared lor by the men. The last car oa the Sixth Avenue road laid off at 4 a. m. Superintendent Curtis said be knew of no grievances on the part o tue men, out outsme men said they had submitted a list or grievances- last week, of which a part was granted and the rest flat ly denied. The horses will be cared for by the men, unless an effort is made to re place them. The Dry Dock, Grand 8treet and East Broadway lines also tied up this moraine The employes told the superintendent that tney lett wort by orders from the Commit tee. The superintendent said he did not know why his roads were tied up, and that ne cud always kept bis agreement to the letter with his men. He had nothing to do with the Third Avenue line, and did not see why the public should be incon venienced and the Company's business ruined to suit those people. A detail of men was appointed to look after the horses. The men are sore over the tie-Up, and say tney nave no crievanccs. The Forty-second Street Boulevard and the St. Nicholas Avenue Railroad have also stopped. At the office it was said the men had no grievance, but only went out be cause ordered to do so. Avenues C and D lines also had their cars laid off. The men left to feed their horses. No grievances are complained of i .i or me men oa mese lines. Bleecker Street and Twenty third Street lines had their cars hauled off. It was said the men had no comDlaints to make. The Broadway and Seventh avenue lines and the Barclay street lines had their cars all laid off. The men say they have no formal grievances to make. There are seven non-Union men and they are to be discharged before the men will return to work, even should the tie-up be declared off. The horses are cared for. The Forty-second street and Grand street Ferry lines of cars have stopped. The men here feel bitter because they are called upon to stop work just after the Company has granted all the men asked. They say that if tbe Company will promise to use none but Union men, the employes would de mand of the Empire Protective Association that their line be loosed. They all wanted to work The men on the Belt Line Railroad did not report for duty this morning. The Su perintendent said he understood that the employes wanted several non Union men and the clerk discharged. LABOR TROUBLES. The B. Sc O.

By Telegraph to the Horning Btar.i Chicago, April 18. First Vice Presi dent Smith, General Manager Dunham and Superintendents Foieacre and Britton, of the Baltimore & Ohio Road, held a consul tation today with a committee of the striking switchmen and an arrangement was made whereby the freight blockade on that road will end to-morrow morning. The strikers modified their demand that eight men be discharged, into a request that they be trans ferred to some other point. The eight men referred to announcing their willingness to be transferred, the Company agreed to a settlement of the difficulties on this basis. Late last night the Lake Shore officials attempted to take out a freight train from their yards. A rush was made for the en gine, and before any protection could be offered the engineer and fireman were dragged from their posts and each was giv,en a terrible beating before being al lowed to escape. M URDERO US WORK. The Bishop of Madrid Shot Down on the Cathedral Steps by a Revengeful Priest. By Cable to the Morning Star. Madrid, April 18. This morning, while the Bishop of Madrid was ascending the steps leading to the entrance of the Ca thedral, he was shot with a revolver by a priest standing at the top of the steps, the ball entering his abdomen.. This was followed by another shot from the same source, which wounded the Bishop inside, where upon the wounded man fell on the steps. The priest then descended the steps and fired still another shot, which took effect in the Bishop's thigh. The priest was then seized, putting a stop to ids murderous work; and his victim"was borne in an un conscious condition to the private chamber in the Cathedral, where the last sacraments for the dying were administered to him. Being Palm Sunday the Cathedral was more than usually crowded by worshippers; and when tbe fearful work of the priest was realized a furious mob followed the carriage in which he was conveyed to pri son, by gendarmes, whose1 presence alone prevented the lynching of the would-be murderer. The motive for the crime was revenge. ; - - - r Tlie Beat B eeodfon Hi BasU ofUonrs 1 "-5 4" Ever made. ' N : lBf Telograph 16 the Morning Btar.i - -. , a Lir" 1 ThA Tntjvr-Oeean'B fiUVAUU! Af...

"FOR FORTY TEARS I have been a victim to CATARRH three-fourths of the time a sufferer from EXCRUCIATING PAINS ACROSS MY FOREHEAD AND MY NOSTRILS. The dischar ges were so offensive that I hesitate to mention it, except for the good it may do some other suf ferer. I have spent a young fortune from my earnings during my forty years of suffering to obtain relief from the doctors. I have tried pa tent medicines every on a I could learn of from the four corners of the earth, with no relief, and AT LAST (57 years of age) have met with a rem edy that has oured me entirely-made me a new man. I weighed 128 pounds and now weigh 146. I used thirteen bottles of the medicine, and the onlv regret I have is that,' being in the humble walks of life, I may not have Influence to prevail on all catarrh sufferers to use what has cured me,- Gu Inn's Pioneer Blood.
