Tho Leland Stanford Case, Justice Field, of the United States Supreme Court, decides that Leland Stanford need not explain the disposition of certain .funds to the Pacific Railroad Investigating uommission. The soundness of this decision we seriously question. The Congress of the United States passed a law creating a Com mission to investigate the affairs of the Pacific Railroads. The Com mission nnas tnat, pertain moneys belonging to the roads have been expended, and there are no Touch ers to show for what the expendi tures have been made. Mr. 0. P. Huntington admits having paid large sums, to two professional lob byi8ts at .Washington "Dick" Franchot and "Charley" Sherrill witnout requiring any -accounts or explanations from them. Senator Leland Stanford refuses to say whether any portion of the sum of 8700,000 nu accounted for was used to inflnence legislatiori. Justice Field sustains the refusal, and holds hat Congress has no right to en- auire into the "nri rate affairs" of Central Pacific Hailroad corpora tion, and that only throngh pro : A ceedings in the courts can such in formation be reached. In other words, the people, through their Congress, have no power over the corporations they create, while the courts, taking their existence from he people, buj; owned by the cor porations i alone have such power. Harper's Weekly defends the de cision on the ground taken by the court in the Hallet Kimball case. n that case the Court held- that Congress had no right to imprison a private citizen fpr refusing, to disJ' close the secrets of newspaper cor respondents, referring to business purely of a private nature. 13ut the Pacific Railroad business is not I "a private affair," and to hold, as Justice Field has held, that not even the President of the Central acific, who is also a member of the United States Senate, can be com pelled to disclose facts which Con gress ought tq know, is to affirm a principle that puts these great cor porations above the power which created them, and J one which we believe to be contrary to the con stitution , of the United States. The only grounds upon which Senator Stanford can be excused rom testifying is, as seems to us, hat his testimony would tend to criminate himself. But as the St. Louis Republican; a staunch Dem ocratic paper, says : "No one se' riously expected that Judge Field would do anything else. It was the grip that Stanford and the Central Pacific had on lield that caused he Democrats of California to for mally repudiate him a few; months beforethe meeting of the 4 Demo cratic National Convention in 1884." . . Leland Stanford is only one of the railroad, kings in the United States Senate put there by the power of money to make our gov ernment what if is fast becoming, a government of corporations, by corporations, for corporations. The control of politics and government by great money corporations for their own sordid purposes is one. of the most serious dangers that 'men ace our institutions. New Age, Augusta; Me, ' " r Men of Worth to a Town. The only men who are of worth to a town or community, says an exchange, are those who can forget their own selfish ends long enough and who are liberal enough in their ideas to encourage every public and private enterprise- who are ready with braiq and parse to forward every project calculated to build up tne town uuu euuaiiuo lis.iuipui tance. - A town might as well pre pare for its funeral as to become indifferent to the industries and enterprises in its midst. Men woo come to town to make it tneir ju ture home, who'can't see far enough before them to see that money nlaced iudiciously in a public enter prise of their own will bear a hun- nrAii m n in tut; uuicvism v.. their own property are to be pitied. They are not the men who put their shoulder to the wheel and help build ud a town, Ihey belong to a class who are ever ready to take all they can of some one else's building: and - enterprise, -but 5 are not willing to do anything them selves. It is the town that has the most enterprising citizens in it that jjrow3 most rapidly. JTDUliEST AFFinHED. Tfac CTiTcfsoTnarchUU to Ilangl NoTcmbcr 11th Ottawa, III., Sept. 14. The Supreme Coort this caorningileHTcr ed an -opinion in the Anarchist case affirming the deciaion cf the court below. The execution to take place Xo- yembtr 11, between nine and four o'clock. The opinion waa prepared and delivered by Judge Magruder, and contains about 50,000 word. It was concurred in by all the Judgea except Judge Mnlkr, and he uoes not dissent from the finJrl ings, but from certain statements. Chicago, Sept. 14.-The an- nouncement of Jthe seutence caused the most intense excitement in the jail building. Capt. Shaack was notified early of the decision, and soon-an additionatiorce of officers were seen patrolling the vicinity of the jailrLtejctivcs were posted on nearly every approach to the. place, and every suspicious character was watched. Even known newspaper men had difficulty in getting access to the jail, and none of them were permitted to interview the prisoner. Ferdinand Spies, brother of August, received a dispatch from Ottawa as soon as the decision of the court was announced. Ho hastened to Capt. Black's office, and there met Kiua Van Zandt aud her mother, jjirs. .tin gel ana nan a dozen more friends of the condemned men who had also received dispatches j from Ottawa. Nina Van Zandt looked ghastly, tears stood in hereyes and her face was white and drawn; tears were streaming down the cheeks of Mrs. Engel, and all the others look ed far worse than they have at -any time since the trial began. Indeed the verdict of the jury in Judge Gary's court was not the blow to the Anarchists and their friends that the decision of the Supreme Court has ben. Never since the returning of the verdict of guilty in the Anarchist's trial nearly thirteen-months ago, has there been such excitement in the city as was occasioned by the announcement of of the decision of -'the Supreme Court. For months the people have been waiting with feverish anxiety to learn what the Supreme Court wouiJ do in the famous case. Now that the opinion has filially been decided, a feeling of great relief is being experienced, and, outside of anarchistic and socialistic circles, the verdict is unanimously approved. Fifteen minutes after the news was read there were more detectives lo cated on the outside of the jail than there. had been since the day of the verdict, August 2Gtb, 1880. The policemen (in uniform) about the jail had several additions to their number who patrolled the four sides of the building and drove away the small boys who dared ap proach and peer up at the barred widows of the prison. Persons were not allowed to loiter on Illi: nois street, in rear of the building, and therefore the crowd kept marching up and down discussing the all-absorbing topic. , T he friends p'f the Anarchists are hopeful of. still getting the case to the U. S. Supreme Court, and Capt. Black, their counsel, is con fident that he will get it considered by that august tribunal. Mixed Schools in Ohio. Cixcixn ati, Sept. 7. The law abolishing separate schools obeyed in some places by keeping colored schools open as before', but designa ting them as .branches or district schools. A colored teacher cfound himself nraticallv deserted, all his a pupils having gone to white schools for enrollment. The same thing happened at Oxford, Ohio where the white pupils have become dis pleased with the iuovation and some have left the school3 until -Jthe mat ter is settled. , , An Interesting Case. . An interesting case was tried be fore Judge Clark last week, at Lex ington. Two men, J. H. Hedrick and Wm. Bwicegood, committee men; in a certain school district, were indicted for obtaining money under false pretenses. ' Swiccgood; a prominent Republican and a man of influence, took the census of the school children in his district. He reported to the board of education twenty-three more children ,than were actually in the district?. By this means about 20 was apportion ed to the district more thau was its just proportion. Hedrick joined Swicegood in the report. The State charged that the lists were prepared with the intent to defraud the school fund and to secure; for their own district money to which it was not entitled. Solicitor Long appeared for the State. The defendants had three lawyers, Messrs. Glenn, Henderson, and Walser. The case attracted much attention and was ably and eloquent ly argued. Hedrick was acquitted, Swieesrood was convicted, and it is likely he will move his lodging at Raleigh and be dressad in stripes for a season. It would be well for nnmmitteemen to remember that they are under oath, and that it is a risky business to make false re turns. Pittsboro Home.

Texas shows a gain of more than 100 per cent., and an average gain of more than 35,0OO,000a year. Alabama., Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana and North Carolina show smaller but still enormous gains. Virginia, Tennessee, South Caro lina and Mississippi have not been so fortunate as the rest of the South yet they show a handsome increase. Doubtless the debt question in Vir ginia and Tennessee, ind the un certainty of labor : im; Mississippi and South Carolina, have some what retarded the growth of those States,' 1 . ' tl .". It should be noted that the in crease in the rato of taxation in Kentucky,, North Carolina, Ten nessee and Texas is mainly or solely due to increased appropriations for public schools. Between 1879 and 1887 more than 900,000,000 have been added to the assessed wealth of the Southern States, and in tho same period the avei age rate of tax ation has fallen nearly 20 per cent. Our Republican friends will be interested in the Tines-Demoerat's assertion that in 1870 audi 1871, when they possessed the South, the average rate of taxation was 11 2-3. It is now 4 3-5. The South has done excellently bi nee she has ruled herself. Salisbury may Ponder the Lesson Too, j Asheviile Citizen. Mr. Hinton A.
