THURSDAY, JANUARY 4, 1894 So as to the Nicaragua canal. No other nation than the United States am afford to construct that canal under the circumstances now existing. Richmond Dispatch. Under the circumstances now exislinc, financially, the United States certainly cannot afford to build an; canals. We haven't the monev. The patriots and citizens and Demo crats who have elected John Y. McKane, the Gravesend, L, 1., boss uml political shyster, to be supervisor of the county in which bis ditty work has been carried on, should be ashamed of themselves Such indifference to the opinion ol tin people is not only poor morals; it is bad politics as well. No party or faction oi a party can afford to tie up to a criminal or one who is believed to be such. This decision of the Countv Coininiv siouers in the South Mtiin street saloon case is a backhanded slap at flic liouril of Aldermen that seemsentnely deserved. It is the Board of Aldermeu that should stand like a stone wall to guard the City's interests, which do not lie in t In direction of more, it auv, saloons. Tin Aldermeu have the power to refuse license to an intending liquor seller, bui in the present case, they seem to have been so anxious to grant it Unit thej made no inquiry as to whether the real applicant was a citizen of the State or not. This act of the Board of Aldermen is the more inexcusable when it is re membered that it is a reform Board. BLANDER Mr. Sovereign, recently elected jjrani' master workman of the Knights ol Labor, l'.as issued an address to tin members ol tits oigatiiz.ition iiigmc them to protest against the proposed issue of interest-bearing bonds. Mr, Sovereign says he is "iu receipt of letter from the cotton regions of the Soutl and from the agricultural districts ol the West declaring that the issuing ol iiiterest-b' aring bonds by the national government will be considered sullicicnt provocation to justify a call to arms.' If interest-bearing bonds arc issued it will be because the act can be legally doiie, and if it is done the persons dome it will be those legally elected by the oeonle of the United States to do that and other work found, in their judg ruent. necessary or expedient. How silly then to talk of a "call to arms' being justified! If Mr. Sovereign had good sense he would not have asserted that he had received ''letters" from the "cotton regions" conveving this threat Probablv be received verv few such, and that bis assertion is, in effect, a slander SOME FIGl'RKS RECALLED. During Harrison's administration, i 1H81, Samuel C.ompers, prcsiden ol the American Federation ol I. a bor, estimated the number of men out ot work at three millions. A Republican organ which has just caught up with the figures, or else has maliciously and purposely brought them forward from the ledger of the last administration says: "Poor America! If she isn't getting her punishment tor admitting the Demo cratic party to power again. So generally were these figures ac cepted even by the Republicans that they were taken up by the New York city Re- publican business men's association, a meeting of which, early in the Harri son administration, a resolution wn offered reciting that there were 3.000 000 men out of work and that 50,000 tramps were roaming around the coun try, and that a committee ought to v nnnninted and relief devised. It is wc'l ii to wall this at the present day when the hard times are being charged to the account of the Democratic party. THE COMMISSION t-Rt' DKCISV ION. We think those who followed the Hut son license case before the County Com missiouers will be surprised at the text ol their decision while applauding the effect of it in preventing the establishing of another saloon. The Commissioners decision bluntly accuses certain witnesse of false swearing. The Commissioners dnnotsav: "We refuse the license on the ground that it bas not been prove beyond a reasonable doubt (or to our satisfaction) that the real applicant is a native of the State;" but I they say "said applicant is not the real patty interested in said application, but tha one F. M. Simmons, who is a citizen ol the State of South Carolina, is the party iu whose interest and for whose licncli the application is made." Th!s surely is a decision with a very rough bark on, and a bark that is not necessarily worse than its bite either. The Citizisn knows neither of the par ties said to be interested in this matter, but that they are wc will not say with out sufficient evidence, but apparently unnecessarily branded in a way to leave a lasting mark of a disgraceful kind is very apparent. We think Messrs. llutsou and Simmons have a right to complain at the form of the Commis sioners' decision. AUAIM. Wc have this in the Raleigh News and Courier: "Commenting on a paragraph that recently appeared in this paper touching the Ling Guu case, Tub Ashvilli; Civi 71TM anva: "We do not believe it is any part of particular purpose in this case so long aa those officers ot the luw who have jurisdiction in the premises are believed to be capable and evince a disposition to carry out their sworn duty.' nr brioht contemporary we sup pose will admit that because this unfor tunate victim was a citizen of a foreign country, particular care should be taken in all the a tares of the case. "And wesuDDOse it will also admit that the Governor mpy in any cafe manifest a particular interest in seeing the law enforced until a true bill is found and a case constituted iu the court. "Thus there would have been no de parture from propriety bad the Gov ernor seen fit to have gone tothevicinit.i of the crime and by such lawful nieaus as he m ght use have pressed the investi gation iu such a direction as would lead to the conviction ot the murderers. Our esteemed contemporary is nearer the authorities and the record that show the precedents in such matters, aud we presume it hus taken care to in form itself, but we recall nothing cither in the State Constitution or the Code which, except in the most general terms, would suggest a visit ot the Governor to the vicinity ol the scene of the murder ot Ling Gun to "press nu investigation." We believe further that if the Governor had come west to make a show ol authority h.' would have found nothing to do, aud, as an lrishmau might say been a week too late to do it. For, as a matter of fact, tne interest taken in the Ling Ou n ease has from the first been ex- traoidina. y; time and monev have been treely spent; aud both the Secretary ol State and the Chinese minister have beeu kept fully infuruicd ot everv step taken We cannot vet see the necessity or he propriety ol now reciting to Western North Carolina the real or supposed powers of theGovernor in eases like that under consideration.
