Unequal Se Representation. The recent ev in North and South Carolina, the declarations of the white he two states explanatory of events, and the manner in which extraordinary occurrences have been treated by the negroes, by the northern and western whites, and by the nation as a whole, raise a question of political interest to all the people of the republic. Thoughtful southerners concede that the North Carolina proceedings ani others of a like character constitute revolution against the Constitution and law, to be tified only om the score of necessity. on does not seem disposed to treat ution seriously, and to meet force with force in defense of the constitutional rights of all American citizens without dis action. It is almost acquiescent. ‘The ne: », as a voter in the south, Is practically to his fate. ¢ conditions arise gross inequal- {ties of sectional representation in national élections. It is not denied that the negro voters in the south are prevented by fear or fraud or persuasion from casting effect- ive votes. The white people of the south say openly and boldly that the domination of the inferior race, supertor in numbers, however, in certain communities, cannot be and will not be endured, and that all the with a preference for peaceable methods, will be taken to pre vent it. At the same tUme the negro popu- lation which is not to be allowed to vote with its numeri- abandoned From the necessary mean: effectivel, accordance strength is counted to the full of its numbers in estimating the representa- tion of the south in the national legislature and ¢ college.

On this stock and the suit depended the power of the reorganizing syndicate to accomplisa its ends. The sale of the stock by the university to the syndicate removes the reason for testing the question of whether this preferred issue was a perpetual lien of six per cent on the gross income of the road. Many interests hang upon the re organization of this property, which tra- Verses a very large section of country and feeds many industries. Locally there is some concern for the rehabilitation of the property, although the most important item of interest—the construction of a new lerminai—does not necessarily depend di- rectly upon the re-financing of the road it- self. Heretofore the proposition to con- THE EVENING ‘STAR, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1898-16 PAGES. struct viaducts and to erect a suitable siation has been coupled with a plan to place this enterprise in the hands of a construction or “terminal” company, sim- iiar to those whieh usually take over the task of the actual building of roads, cana!s nd similar large affairs. The bonds of this t al company would stand on a separate basis from those of the railroad d there would be practically no difficulty in floating them. At no time dur- ing the recent financial troubles of the Bat- timore and Ohio has there been much doubt as to the ability of such a company to et- fect an organization and to produce the engineering results for which the citizens compa ot Washington have so patiently waited, but the receivership has brought a chain of troubles which have apparently <iverte) the attention of the main corporation from the terminal project to such a point that it has been difficult to secure that de- gree of co-operation with the local author ties which has been desirable and aimost necessary to secure results. The alleged engineering difficulties have been urged in udvocacy of delay while Congress has been awaiting the assurance that the law which it might enact on the subject would be promptly carried into effect. If now the road is to be placed upon a new basis no time ought to be lost in urging action upon this project which has been delayed so long that it has become one of the capital's standing requirements in the name of the public satety. Yesterday's Star con- tained an interview with Senator McMullan, in which he spoke confidently of the sbil- ly of the District committees to secure ac- tion on tie grade crossings bills at the first session of the next Congress. Perhaps in view of the Baltimore and Ohio's brighter lunanclal prospects the bill affecting that road might be pressed through at the com- ing sessio: ee -- he Next Senate. Comment on the republican control ob- tained of the next Senate is confined al- most whoily to the silver question. The country is congratulated on the fact that, ho matter what may happen next time to the House or to the presidency, the Senate for some years at least will be a barrier against unsound financial legislation. This is a very important point. But the service mentioned will be purely negative. for this reason stress should not be laid upon it to the exclusion of the fact that not for a great many years has any Sen- ate had work of a positive nature to do of equai dimculty to that which is to be presented to the next Senate for its at- tentions. The currency iaws will call for re- vision, taxation will in some measure have to be revised, and legisiation for the coun- tr be absolutely ccessary. The country will have urgent need, therefore, for the services of every able mau in that bedy; and those who are chosen this winter to reinforce those al- ready in commission there should represent the pick of the available timber in the states where elections are he! still olved publicans is that of local pride. verats are losing st S new possessions will another pe for the re- The dem- eral eminent and use- ful men.

The Maryland republicans have wisely chosen in the matter of Mr. orman’s successor, and it is to be hoped that the situations elsewhere may show an cqual appreciation of the situation.

The cable brings the following from Ma- aria: *ommander Capriles, the former govern- or of the province of Puerto Principe, Cuba, and who was one of the officers on board one of the Spanish cruisers of Admiral Cer- vera’s fleet. destroyed at Santiago, has been nominated by the queen regent as governor of the province of Malaga. Commander Capriles was one of the officers of the cap- tured Spanish fleet, who, with Capt. ulate, refused to sign the parole on board the St. Louts, and this act has been deemed by the queen regent worthy of reward by the Spanish government. Capt. Eulate, who was the principal officer who refused to sign the parole, has already been rewarded with the position of captain of the port of Cadiz.” This is almost past belief. The Spaniards pride themselves on a high courtesy, a nice sense of ceremony and an unfailing chival- ry of demeanor toward everybody. And yet here ts nothing more ror less than a reward for manifestations of boorishness in cir- cumstances calling for the utmost correct- ness of conduct. The details of the matter are easily re- called. From the moment Admiral Cervera and his officers became prisoners the effort of their captors was to soften in every way their hard fortunes. They were recelved on board the American ships with due defer- ence to their ranks and at once provided with every comfort at hand. This Captain Eulate fell into the hands of Captain Ev- ans of the lowa, who gallantly declined to accept his prisoner's sword and compli- mented him upon the way in which he had carried himself in action. It was a gracious but a strained act on the American’s part, for, as a matter of fact, Captain Eulate occupied no herote attitude at all. He had stmply been overpowered while trying to run away with his ship. Subsequently this consideration for the Spanish officers was repeated when they were transferred to the St. Louis to be brought to this country. The desire was that they should feel while on board less like prisoners and more like guests, and to this end paroles were offered for their siz- nature. All signed, with Admiral Cervera at their head, except Captain Eulate and this land officer, Capriles. These two devel- oped extreme sensitiveness on the subject and withheld their signatures. The questian considered not important in their cases end was waived. The discourtesy exhibited by them was really greater toward Admiral Cervera than toward the American com- mander of the St. Louis. If their own su- perior officers could sign the parole, what was it that could be sticking in their craw? When Annapolis was reached the same procedure was adopted. The object there, as it had been on shipboard, was to extend to the prisoners every attention and to in- sure them all proper freedom of movement. Paroles were again produced and again sign- ed by Admiral Cervera and his comrades, with the exception of the two who had ob- jected on shipboard. They again objected, but were not above accepting the privileges which a parole carried. If Captain Eulate and Commander Cap- riles deserve promotion for their course in this matter, Admiral Cervera and the others deserve censure. Is that Spain's position? Is that her formal and official appraisement of the treatment of her more distinguished officers while they were prisoners of the United States The anti-expansionists should include in their censure the men who perfected the telegraph. It has obliterated distanc», for all practical purposes, and has a tendency to prejudice the popular mind against ef- forts to magnify obstacles to colonial gov- ernment. ———_+¢ + _-____ Senator Platt intin.ates that Van Wyck was at a disadvantage because of an ob- trusive boss, but neglects to mention that Col.

Brom the New York Independent. i There has been no pretense of any such misgovernment on the part of the coali- tion of republicans and populists in North Carolina as to afford any apology for in- surrection. The state and City of Wilming- ton seem to have been quite as well gov- erned as before. The sole offense was the success of the republicans at the polls, that they were in the majority and elected their officers. The principal ones were white men, but some of them were colored, and colored men were on the police force. This cculd not be endured; and because the democrats did not have votes enough to carry the election, they armed themselves, went about the country threatening voters with death if they came to the polls, vio- lently expelled with threat of death the republican leaders and officeholders, de- stroyed their press, burned their newspa- per office and seized the government. In Peru or Nicaragua or Paris we should call this revolution. It is no less revolution in North Caroiina. We must not think of it as an ordinary outbreak of hot mob vio- lence. It was a cool, determined, malicious attack on the free government of the state, a state which enters, through its repre- sentatives in Congress, into the government of the United States. It does not need argument that this means government by force and not by ballot, nor that it is of the essence of rebellion against the con- stitution of North Carolina and against the principles on which all free government is founded. —__—__+ += —___ Dangers of Mob Law. From the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle. It is high time that law-abiding men should get together and check this steadily growing tendency to mob law. It behooves every man to exert his influence against the mob spirit, and in the interest of peace and of right to discourage any movement toward lynch law that comes within his knowledge. The mob is no respecter of persons, nor will it Hsten to argument or reason. The man who is in the mob today may be the object of the mob’s violence tomorrow. He who lives by the mob may die by the mob. Civ- ilization, peace and the maintenance of our institutions demand that mob law shall be discountenanced. Nothing but public senti- ment can stop it, and law-abiding men must cancess public sentiment against mob vio- lence. sitting high on But, 3 Why Anarchy Thrives.. From the Philadelphia Ledger. Great Britain has accepted an invitation to take part in a conference with European powers to consider measures for the sup- pression of anarchy, but Lord Salisbury confesses that he has no great hope of a successful outcome. There is no such hope in sight. Anarchy is a product of the - tions existing in Europe, and until those conditions change it wil! continue to flour- ish. The statesmen who will be called to consider it will, perhaps, note that it is most rampant in those countries where the most despotic conditions prevail. There is comparatively little of it in England, where it is never dangerous, but a great deal in Germany, Italy and Russia. * BeReridge’s, 1215 F St. ae Requisites™ Thanksgiving -—— EVERYTHING FOR =———— (HE ABLE, such as rich- -—— I® détorated China, Cut ——— (lass, Glass Ware, Silver Ware, Cutlery, Kitchen Uteristls, etc—can be had Here’ AT LOWEST ——— PRICES.
