Sheep were a shado lower, ‘The farmers of various countios in Iowa havo Leld conventions, rasolving to nominate candi- datos of thoir awn for all county officos, and to hold 4 Btata Convention to nominato o candidate for Govornor. Among other resolutions adoptod by tho farmors of Wayno County, in that Btato, woro tho following : First~Thot wo horeby renounce all former party bonds, ana will act s freemen, knowiug our righta and dariug to maintatn them, Second—That all tho ovils that sflict our country are directly traconblo to tho politicians and policy of tho Repubilican and Domocratic parties, so-called, and to thelr corrupt and dishonest pructices. Third—That both the pazties have, by corruption and disregard of public dutics, and in violation of publi tzuats, forfoited all claims to the support of o free and intelligent peoplo. Fourth—Thit wo will not support sny man for offico o will tako part in, or sccept o nomination from, ol ther tho Republican or Democratio parties, so-calied, Thoso rosolutions aro but a formal exprossion of the genoral sontiment throughout tho Btate, The fooling is 80 universal that ono of the pa- pers, odited by a Postmastor, doolares that if this thing goos on It will dofont tho Republican party, and * that will be the beginning of chaos, and 1o one can toll what will bo dono st Waste ington.” The man, with true party Instinots, ls frotting about tho possible change of Postmastors, snd what cares ho whother the railronds and monopolists rotaln the mastory so long ms ho ia kept inoffico? Tho Wayno County farmers aro right. Thero is nothing but oflico- holding and official plunder that koeps the Democratic and Republican parties alive, Any man or body of men who want roforms must shake loose from these partios and act indo- pendently, and voto indopendently. Thero is 10 hope of froodom from monopoly save by the union of all men opposed to it for the common purposo of resiating and averthrowing it. If tho victims of monopoly will not unite to de- stroy it, how can thoy oxpeot that political par- tics, held togethor by corruption and gpoils, will attempt it ? — THE *‘SPECIFIC” RAILROAD ISSUE, The Nation has froquently made tho point that the farmors’ movement has nover yot as- sumod & dofinite character, and that, until it doos 8o, it will not bo ablo to make its war upon railroad monopoly offective, A gontleman writ- Ing to the Nation from Chicago maintains that this is not corroct o far as Ilinois is con- cernod, but that thore is n woll-defined, distine- tivo, and epecific issue in this Btate. Thig ‘““specific,” it sooms, is tho roversal of the Supremo Court. The Nalion's correspond- ent doos not eay this in so many words, but this Is precisely what ho moans. Ifo saya that tho farmors' movement was quictly but cffoctively innugurated prior to the Constitu- tional Convention of 1870, and that it scoured the introduction of that part of tho Btate Con- stitution which prosoribes the logislative con- trol of tho rallroad rates. Ho thon says that the Illinols Logislature paased a law, in conform- anco with tho constitutiogsl provislons, fixing tho rates of trausportation; tho railrosds, in o tost enso, Bot up tho contracts undor their char- tera from the State authorizing them to fix their own ratod of transportation ; and the Bupreme Oourt Lield thnt tho Btato law was unconstitu- tional, ““Tho distinctive issuo,” contiuucs tho Ohicdago writer, * ratgod in this [the recent Ju- dicial] election is: Bhall the railroad foature of tho Btate Constitution bo rocognized as valid, and the laws enactod in nccordanco therowith enforcod, or shall it be set asido on the ground of contlict with the Fedoral Constitution as in- terproted in tho Dartmouth Colloga caso 7" It wo nccopt the statement of the oase mado by the Nation's Olicago correspondent as cor- xoct, the “apeciflo " issua in Illinols 18, Whothor the farmers of Illinos shall, or ghall not, run all the Supromo J udges from the DBencl, and - gubstitute In thelr places mon who will deolde the rallvond ques- tion sccording to their construction, and in oppoaltion to tha principlos laid down by tho Bupremo Court of the United States in tho Dart~ mouth Colloge caso, and other cases fnvolving & slmilar {ssuo? But this specifio iugue, if such 1t bo, will not atop horo, Buppose that the farm- erd should suocoed in roorganizing tho Buprome Court of this Biate on the proposed basis (which, in viow of the lato unanimous decision and tho present organization of the Bupreme Court, of the Btato, will be a long nud todl- ous process), thon it will bring the gy preme Court of this Btate in conflict with tho Bupreme Court and the Constitution of tho United Btates, What direction will tho ' #poglflo " lagug take In fhin evont? WWill tho tho lhands, o, farmorsa of Illinols then proceed to apply the dootrine of *crontura" and *oroator " st fur- thor, aud inniat that tho Constitution of tho Unitod Btatos In subordinate to tho will of tho peoplo of Illinois 2 This would bo tho Inovita~ blo outeomo of the *spocifio " lssue which the Nation's corrospondent doflncs, if the farmors slhiould bo able to achiove a complete viotory in tho Btato.. Xn such n caso, wo fall fo seo how tho farmors would bo in any bottor position than thoy aro now. Thoy would bo forced to soo the Buprome Court of tholr own solection put down, and tho controveray would bo thrown back Just whore It wna bofors, or thoy would bo obliged toadopt tho uroed of South Carollun, in- aist upon tho right of sccossion, and try tho samo exporimont in which tho Bouthorn Statos failod 8o ignominiously. ‘Wo donot beliove, howaver, that the “apo- cifle” issno of tho transportation roformars is what tho Nation's correspondont dofinos It to bo. In the first placo, it doos not yot appoar that tho authority given to the Logialaturo of Tlinots by tho Btato Constitution is in conflict with tho Con~ stitation of the Unitod Slatos. At all ovonts, tho Bupromo Coutt of tho Stato hins nover said that it {5 8o, Tho powers of tho Logislaturo aro dofined in Bootlons 12 and 16, under tho articlo on Corporations, Sootion 15 says that “Tho Gonoral Assombly shall pass laws to corroct abusos and provent unjust disorimination and oxtortion.” Tho right of the Logislaturo to do all this is unquestioned, but it must bo dono ac- cording to law, and not in dofianco of it. Thero 18 horo an suthorization for tha Loglslaturo to Ox ponnlties for the onforcomont of roasonable rates of transportation. Boction 12 provides that “Tho Gonoral Assombly shall, from timo to timo, pnsg laws establiahing rassomablo maxi- mum rates of charges for the transportation of passengors and frolght on the difforent railroads in this Btate." Who shall eny what aro reasonable ratea? The Btato may, under the Constitution, fix maximum rates that aro ronsonable, but it romains & matter of ovi donco a8 to what Is, and what is not, reasonablo, Tho two points in the Bupromo Court decision in tho Alton & Bt. Louls caso woro that the rail- zoads woro givon no opportnnity, undor tho law which the Leglalatufo passed, to contest tho roasonablonosa or unronsonabloness of tho ratos, and thot tho penaltios affixed woro excossive in tho contomplation of the State Coustitution. Bo far, thon, the Conatitutlon of tho Btato of - nofs hns not baon brought into confliot with the Coustitution of the United BStatos, and the “gpecific” issuo of transportation reformora ‘cannot bo whot the Nation's Chicago corre- spondont has defined it to bo, Tho cleation in tho Fifth Judioial District, in which Judge Lawrence was defoated, would cor- tainly indicate that tho farmers concelved the issuo to bo what thia Chicago writor has do- scribed. DBut the resulta of this eloction cannot Do Justly rogarded 08 & critorion, he eleation of Mr. Scholfiold In tho Socond District was a do- cided dofont of the Ppropogition to “reverse ” tho Bupreme Court of the Btate, andit is woll known to all who havo watched the canvass in tho Fifth District that the farmers wore misled by doma- gogues, Tho disposition to overturn law by re- organizing the Supreme Bonch will rapidly disopponr a8 tho farmors loarn that ox- cossive railroad ratos and unjust discrimination can bo moro specdily and effectunlly defeated under the law than by destroying tholaw. Thoy will havo less confidencoin the supremo wisdom and univorsal powers of a Stato Logialature, if tho railronds shall apply that fonture of the now RBailroad law which roquires & uniform incroaso of tariff according to the increaso of distance. Tho sttompted applioation of this rulo in Eng- land wag found to shut off largo scotion of the country from market, It this was the resultin Lngland, tho same effoct of a similar lawin the Northwest would be so quickly ap- paront upon trial that the men who demand it | would bo tho first to call for ita roponl. The time I8 not for distant when those who think that tho railronds must bo subordinated to tho domands of tho farmors, without any rogard to their own rights and invostments, will bo tho only ones in favor of tho arbitrary fixing of ates by tho Logislature, and tho raversal of tho courts, The only movemont for roforming the transportation? rates that can kopo to succoad ultimatoly must look beyond the willful oxtor- tion oxercised by cortain railroad corporations into the goneral causos which ronder railrond rates oxcossivo in o greator proportion than tho high prices that rule in overy other bueiness in this country, — A LOST OPPORTUNITY. Tho tolegraph dispatchos of yosterday con- voyed the joyous intolligenco that our distin- guished follow-cltizen and gilt-odged philanthro- plst, the Hon, J. Young Benmmon, appearod be- Tore tho bar of the General Couvention of tho, Church of tho Now J oruealom, now in scesion at ' Cinclnnati, on a quostion of his morita a8 & man | of busiucss and his qualitios as & Bwodenbor- gian, Peoplo do not gonerally go bofore public bodien of this sort to gat cortificates of charac- tor, tinless impelled thoreto by a guilty con- sclonce, Wo presume this was what was tho mottor with our distinguished follow-citizon, It is o remarkablo fact that ho wag tho only mombor of tho Church, in tho wholo United Btates, who appliod for n certificate. ‘Whilo the Goneral Convention, o aforosald, was poacofully aud sorenely conducting its doliborations, thoro was precipitated upon it o long string of rosolutions and whereases of con- fidenco in Mr, Seammon. Tholr offact upon the Convontion was vory much thosamonsif a hand- gronado had oxplodad under osch membor's chafr. They jumped to thoir feot, somo sung pioons to Bcammon ; some protestad sgainst him ; vomo got him confused with the Ion. Jounthan Y. Beammon, of Milwaukeo ; somo thought his oloction ag Vico-Preaidont of tho Couvontion was o auliciont rof- utation of tho chargos againat Lim. Others protested that tho oharges orig- nated in the wicked newspapers which woro his rivals, ind etill othery afirmod that thoy mover know o had any rivals, Uhe discussion waxod long and avimated, and the mover of the reso- lutlons was importuned to withdraw thom, This he rofused to do. 'Thoy woro {lnally tabled ; but. as this did not kil them thoy wero rocousidored, and thon arose another discussion, which finally resulted in thoe adeption of a substituto that his olactlon as Vico-Prosidont was o sufliciont oxon- oration, but this afterward proved mo un- pelatable that it was roconsidored and withdrawn, and tho Convention then ordored that no rocord of this part of the procoodings should go on the books, and the mombers impor- tuned tho roportara of the daily papers to make, no montion of It,—a request which all tho lattor gentlemen soem to have serupulonsly obsorved , by printing a full account of tho procoodings, ‘Wo eluceroly rogret that the Convontion dia; not offlially fix the atatus of fhis great aud goodman, and wo can only account for thelr failure to do 8o upon tho ground that thers must havo beon somo mombers of tho Convention who have boon fn the habit of dopositing trust funds with him or Lorrowing money from him. The public mind ia in a dls- trossing stato of porploxity on this point, News- pnporn difter, tho courts differ, the City Govern- mont differs, ovorybody diffors, and no one ln cortaln nbout it, excopt the Ion. Jonathan-Y, Beommon, of Milwaukes, and ho s projndiced, Tho Convontlon should Lave settled this mattor dofinitoly and boyond question. It waa duo to tho Ilon, J. Young Sesmmon, of Chieago, and to tho Ifon, Jonathan Y. Boammon, of Milwaukeo, 08 well. It was due to the policy-holders of tho Mutusl Beourity Fire Insuranco Company, and to tho stockholdors of the Intornational Lifo In- surance Company. It was duo to tho city in which this truly good mon has residod o long. It waa enpeolally dne to tho contributors of tho Bwodonborglan Rollof Yund, which, ot last no- counte, had not bacn disbursod to any sufferars by tho fire, or roturnod to tho donora.

This raises tho question whether the Mayor was Justified in votolng such o rosolution. The charter makoa it the duty of tho Mayor and othor city officora to furnish all information which may bo asked by tho Common Council. It also gives the Mayor tho veto powor. Tho Mayor was required, in order to givo validity to tho rasolution of the Couneil, to officially ap- prove it, He disclaims in his veto any purpose to provent tho furnishing of information, but objects 10 placing his nama to s rocital of official acts by him, which recital i untrue, He objects to making an official rooord, attested by his official signaturo, which would be untrue, Ho objoots to cortifying as Mayor that hohad dono certain acts, whon in fact ho had not done them. Wo suppose that thors fa no doubt that the Mayor fs justificd in rofusing to thus plead guilty to official misdemoanors; and has & ¥ight to domand that, whon the Council con- vict him of official impropriety, it ehall bo dono in the manner proscribod by law. All tho Council hus to do is to efrike ont the * whereases," and pass the regolution ask- ing for tho information, A corrospondent, through this papor yestorday, citod a sectlan of the Mayor'a bill, requiring that officor to furnish tho Common Council any information nsked by that body; but the rosolntion passed by the Couxncll {n this caso was not addrossed to the Mnyor, but to another officor of the city. ‘Thio quostion is now, howover, to be made in the Common Council, that the Mayor has no suthority to rovoke licensca oxoopt in the cages of porsons convictod of gambling, im- morality, or kooping n disordorly houso, or li- consos issued to fomales, orto persons not in possession of tho premises whore liquar i sold. Tho ordinances of Chicago for twonty yoars pnst have conforred on the Mayor the power to rovoko liconses at his disorotion for various causes. Itisnow discovorod for the firat time that this oxorcise of power by the -Common Council hag beon. illegal, Tho city chartor, from the day Chicago was in- corporated, has conforred power upon the Com- mon Council to “rogulato and restrain * the golling and giving away of spirituous and intox= ieating liquors, and to make ony law or regula- tion for the preservation of ordor and docency, ond to provide any andall necessary panaltics to onforeo its ordinances. Tho rovocation of a li- conss s buta penulty for the violation of an ordinance, and the Common Council have of ne- coselty the power to inolude that g o penalty.
