They regarded the adoption of such resolations as a blunder be-, cause it had the tendency to evoke sctive sympathy and support for The Herald from cxpitalists and corpora- tions. The ccarse, bratal aud indecent as- sault of the Herald on Omaha work- ingmen in retalliation for the with- drawal of patronage must now deprive that paper even of the sympathy of men wl sentiments on the labor question are in accord with those en- tertained by Dr. Miller. Devnis Kearaey, in his worst harangues, never applied 2s vile, blasphemovs and insulting epithets to the Califor- nia nabobs and monopolicts as have ‘been applied by the Herald, in its edi- torial on “Groans,” to the working- men of Umaha. Sach choice epithets as “dleprous “conspirators,” men,” “‘communists,” are promiscu- ously flung in the faces of these men, who, even if they were laboring un- der tho delusion that labor has the same right to self-protection that is enjoyed by capital, scarcely deserve such vituperation. This paper has no disposition to incite hostility toward the Herald, nor does the withdrawal of patronage from that sheet benefit usin the least. Our circulation will not be increased by the withdrawal of subscribers from the Herald, be- NATIONAL RAILWAY REGULA- TION. The necessity of national legislation on the restriction of transportation monopclies is becoming more appar- ent every dsy. This all importaut issue is engresing the stteniion of eome of the ablest thinkers and writ- ersof this country. The following extract from an able a:ticle in the latest number of the Penn Monthly hits the nail equarcly on the Eexd. The p.werlessness of stater, assuch to deal with the regalation of raileoad traffic, is seen by the reeulis of the well meavt attempts in New Yerk. Of the bills reported by what is cillcd the Hepburn committee, that which provided for a commirsion for the oversight of railroads wes defested o the giound that Govervor Cor- nell woull be certain to appoint on the commissien politicians f a low order, and would thus make it ridicu- lous and therefcre poweiless for any good purpote. Thea bill to preveat discrimination in freight charges will [robably pass, but it has been shera of its mort valu- able features. The important princi- ple that local freights shall be at the same rates as through freights with reasonable a'lowavce for the trouble of lo:ding and unlosd ng, bas been abandoued. Hsd 3t been retained, then the whole locsl business cf tle New York Centrsl railroad, runbiog thrcugh Altany to Buffalo, muet have been transacted on such ferms as sre fixed by comjetition with the rival rcads outside the s'a'e; cr else the Central must have sbandoned its hops of a share in the western grain trade, in crder to makeitn 1 cal business remunerative. Hers we have a problem, of which there can b> only anational sclution. As the constituticn stinds, a United States railroad law would sffect only those rail oads which croes s'ate lines. iSut there aze two ways of reschitga uniform ry.tem in the mattr. The first would be preconcerted action by the central and state governmewts, in the adopti'n of a law preparel by competent experts for tha ooatrol of ali the mailroads. In the existing sta'e of public opinion, such an airangement would be quite pos- sible. Evcn the cfficers of the Petn-ylvavia railroad have ad- mitted the neceasity for some such action. It is a3 much required to pro- tect the owners of the railruads from tho wasteful excesses of competition, a8 {0 protect the public from excessive local charges. Failing in this, it will be necessary t» amend the United States conatitution by giving the na- tion :he power to regulate all the rail- roads of the country, We believe it would have received thisauthority had railccads existed st the time of the adoption of ths constitution. But its authors we © 0 prophets. They fore- saw neitt er Whitney’s cottor: gan, uor Pitt’s incone tax, nor Moree's tole- graph, nor Stephenson’s locomotive. And it is not loyalty to their mem- ories and their work to leve the doce ument ss they made it, not as thiy would have made it. S1.

It is expected that the flax indus'ry will take a fre:h start in New Jersey, | in consequenca of boun‘iss offered for its cultore and improved processos of manufac'ure. When mavy yesrs sgo it was gr.wa for the fitre prcduct, the quality of NewJeraey flax had a wide- spread repu'ation. It is now worth more than $100 per ton.

They have sev- eral manufacturing concerns which of their kind in the E'gin is probably the largst butter and cheese market in the United States.

Cleave'aud Lealer, The action of the mincrity in the recent republican convention of Illi- noiv, in recordiog its solemn protest against the proceedings of the major- ity, renders it almost certain that two sets of delegates will apply for admis- sion tc the nations] ccnvention from te. The state has forty-two n the n-t onal convention. The sta'e convention which met last week in-t-ucted the forty-two delegates it electad to v.te as a unit for Geve:al Grnt. The delega‘es f:om ten con- gressiopal districts have entered theic solemn protsst sgainst theee instructions. Their p otest res “We hereby protest againat the ap- poiztment or selection, or against the attempt.d 2ppo ntment and eelection, by this convention, of any other dele- gates than those named, (viz: the del- egates appoiuted by the di:tricts), sud we deny the right of this conveati n to make any otherappointment.” The meaning of this language is clear. ‘The delegates elected frcm ten con- gr-sei mal distri 15, twenly in nuw] will epply for admission to the pation- al convention, ani if admitted will re- duce the vote for Graut from that state from forty-:wo to_twenty-two. Whether they or admit'ed or not will depnd not mo-e'y upon their rghts to be there, but upon the capac'ty of the snt:-Bliine men to keep them out Itis unuec ssary to say that t -is state of aff irs is far from being just, bu: we might as well re- cognise its existence. A.lo mvestion whetber ward, city, county, district or state, are divided into classes re- presenting diverse ehides of opinion snd favoring different cand:dates. The stro gest and most skillfuily managed faction wins the dsy. We hope thatin deciding the olsims of the Illinois delsgatcs the nationsl convention will be governed by a de- sire togive all paitica their just re- presention. Should the twenty pro- testng Cel-gsts bs admitted, the next question to ba coneilered wi'l be the unit rul The admicsion of the different sets of delegates, and the adopticn of the unit rule, are questiors purely sud solely within the provicce of the na. tioual convention to dec’de. They are by no means naw. Every four yeas in ono ot the cther of the na- tional parly ecnventions, similar quesious are agitated sud disposed of. Four years sgs, when Penn ylvania was called in the roll of states, Mr Don. Cameron ca:t tho vote of his state solidly for Gov. Hastranft A member of the delega ion, Mr. Fur- they, thereupon rose to a question of privilege, saying that he, with another member of the Pornsyl- vania delegation, d:sired to cast their votes for Mr. Blsine. The pres- ideut, Mr. McPherson, declated that it was theight of any and every mem- ber to vote his s n'iments, and ss this remark was greoted with_general applaue Mr. McPherson declered bis opinion sustaived. Then a formal ap- peal was made from the decition of the chair and the question was thor- cughly discussed. This was & discussion quasi-admission on the the members that was eminently proper for _the convention to decide. Among the many _experienced parlismentariaus on the floor not oue opposed the question as out of order, or beyond the jurisdiction of the con- vention. Attho close of an exbaus- tive debate the chair was sustained by a vote f 305 yeas to 353 nays. In the conventicn of 1872 no such issue was raised, but in the republicsn conven- i-nof 1868 it was raised in regard to the vioe presidency and d-ciced sgainst tho unit rulo. We cannot call to mind any instances where the unit rale has received a learned discussion in Democrat- ic conventiops. In 1876, at the St. Louis democratic convention, S. 8. Cox, DeWitt Littlejoho, Jobn Kel- 1y, General Thomas Ewing and others were hiseed down while attempting to speak in behalf of the minority. Dur- ing the voting for candidate for _presi- dent, delegates from New Jersey, Virginia and otber states attempted in vain to vote acco to their in- dividual views. The chairmen of the rospective delegations announced the vote and it was recorded without sllowingany formal remonstrance. The Associated press dispstchesof the day report that before the ballot was an- nounced there were some tweuty dele stes on the floor at once striving to b Many of them were staad- ing on tables and chsirs protesting against having their votes recorded contrary to their views. A review of the history of conven: tions will demonetrate that fs. within the power of each convention to adopt whatover rulesit thinks proper for its government. —_— The Siiver-Mining Industry.

The fact that silver mining requires a heavy outlsy of capital before it yields avy rcturns, tends t> make the businees more and more conservative. Heavy losses have been tuffered Dby tments in partially explored loles and by at- tempts to work mives without suffi cient meaos, and the re u't of such coatly experiments has been to make investcrs cauticus about trying doubt- ful stocke, and cowpanics slow to undertake expensive operations until the value of their p-oparties hai boen fully azcertained by thorough exam'na ion. All th's ishealthful fcr ni permarent aud profitable intusury. The enormous gains and losses of the past will nct be likely £ be repeated in the futues, but the business will got upon a sonnd, stable basis, where its net yield will be amply romunera tive for the money spent in carrying iton. Public sentiment about mining stocks 35 an investment w 1! thon un dorgo + groat ciango. Indeed, the chavge begins to be scen alrsdy. Men no longer put a few bundreds or “fiyer” intoa c mpany irg about, in the same spirit that they might iavest the money in lottery ticke 8 or lay it down ona roulette table. Csreful inquiry is now mads about the proepzets of the com- pavy, the reports of experts on its property, and the character cf the men concerned in its management. Peojle who condemn minivgas a ruio- ous, demoralizing, gambling sort of business are usually these who have Tost money in it by a reckless d'sregerd of the mest ordinary principles of s life. Among conservative capitalists the indust'y grows in favor increasing knowledge of its capa- bilities and an intelligent comprehen- sion of its fu'ure. Itis certain that in the high, arid water-thed of the continent, embrac- ing the atates and territories of Colc- rado, Dakota, Montan, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Atizona and New Mexico, there isavest store of srzentiferous ore; that the location of cnly a small part of it has been determined and its development barely baguo; that the mines which have been opened avd worked, when opened on well tes'ed veins and worked with resonable sagacity and econciny, have yild d hendsome profits. The busirees is therefore a Jo:itimate o, iuviting to invextors of eurplus ¢ pital and to men of entorprise. If people will exerciso the same prudence in buying miaing shres that they exercis in buying bank thares or railr ad share», the gambling _festure in it will scon d'sippear, and the risks of lors will not be more serious than in merc n- tile or manvfacturing ventures. Re- cent experionce bas shown that the '7.ng companies_which are able to make large expenditurcs for shafisand levels, and fer the purchase of ma- chinery, 20 s to be prepared for thor- ough operations beforo oxpecting any returcs, succeed the best. The result isto throw the business more acd more into the honds of fush compy nies, and to discourage the formation of weak concerns which have bsrely means en'ugh to scratch tho eur- face of the ground, and must break dowu if they can nct speedily earn dividends. The kazards of mining are thus diminished, for the strong com- bicked by ample capital sre y to spend large sums on un- . The history cf the m'nes of precious metils in Europa is in- structive in thiy regsrd, showng as it does tbat such mines do not, es s rols, become p oSt able un'il thorougbly opene fand equipped. The royal Huogarian mines of Tchemnitz and Kremnitz, for example, opened in Maria There esa's time, ara worked by the aid of & great drainage tunnal 45,000 feet louy, constructed at a heavy expense, They have been operstsd for over bundred years, and their yirli does not vary much from 6,000 pounds of goldannually, worth about $1,440,000. The net work of veins is appaenly inextaustible, and such is tho c-se with all true me'a'liferous diatricts The importance of tha role- which silver mining is destined to p'ay smon: our national industries cannct now te estimatad, but it is certain t2 be vory great. Here isa product which sll the world wa:ts, aud is ready at all times to ta%e off our hazds at a prics that is n-arly etable, in ex chenge fir i's commodities, (r in prymert of our debis. Its increased yicld must be a s urce of satisfaction to the ptriot and tho political economist. ~ All the facts thus far as- certaired Jead to the belief that the oatput of our 8lver regions will be steadily avgmented for the next ten yeors, at 1. ast, by the discovery of new minea and the mors thorough working of old cmes, and that when it cal: minates it will remain without serious diminution for generations. Reaction in the Iron Trade. Buffalo Commercial, ‘The great “boom” in the iron trade is now a thingof the past. Tnstca of daily reports of activity and ad- vancing prices, announcements of fail- ures and reductions in_rates are the order of the day. Yesterday the Read'ng Railroad and Coal and Iron company, one of the largest companies in the country, suspended payments, while numerous other concerns in arious parts a ments. That such is the case is entirely dus to the reckleas apirit of specula- that seized uponall classes of pecple a8 800n as the revival sct in last year. The outlock in the iron trads last September was better than it had been for many years previous; ihe ttocks on hand were light, the demand for im- mediste consumpticn was active and Likely to continue 8o for many months, aad the uncertainty with reforence to the faturo that had been such a seri- ous cbstacle to renewed trads, had en- tirely disappeared. The heavy move. ment of grain, provisions and other western products, had inspired raslway mauagers with confidence and they buu{ht freely; the revival in general business particularlyin building, in- duced large purchases for gereral pur- poses. This legitimate demsnd was suffi ciont to impart great activity.to the . 2 making consiga- iron interests and to advance pri materially. But speculators taking advantage of this improved condition of trade entered the market ard bought all the pig they could find, and tire product of furnaces for weeks in advance. The iron thus bought on speculativo account was piled up to awai & further rite in prices which was not long in coming. The speculative demand, sdded to the legitimate orders that were pour- ing i upon furnace men from sl di- rections, put them almost beside themselves. And they reised prices in a way that indicated they thought there was no satisfyiog the mar- ket. Pig iron that had been a drug in the trade at $17.50 to $18 a ton ‘was rapidly advanced from $42 to $45. The un] lecnted manner - in which prices were advanced alarmed the manufacturers working on contracts, and they in turn bought more thon-they really needed, and stored the surplus for future use. The extrzordinary demand and the high could be imported at & profit, and Briti h iron has beea pouring in by the hundreds of thoussnds of tons. As ev.ry sane person believed would D3 the caze, the supp'y eoon overtook the demand, snd then those dircctly interested ' @ zan to caat abou! sni see what was ths condition of affairs. mnds, thovswnds cf fons of pig-iron held n s; ec ilative account, and thou- wnds mere bsing importsd every week. Aud than, for the first_time, apparen’ly, furpacs men divcov. ered tha® they lal made & se- rious mistske in advencing their produc's to a point that would ad- mit foreicnir.n. They attempted to remedy the difficulty by redusing quo- tationssomeal & . - This alarmed weak specula'o's, who bastened to realiz-, thus cansing a further deslive, and very soon ths murket was beycnd the control_of iron masters, and fell av fast as it had aduanced. = Foundry pig that a few week ago was held in the leading icon centres at from $45 to §48 a ton according ) location, i3now of- fered at from §14 to 827, while mils that had reached $5.50 - have dr.ppod to $5.10. But, unfortunate as this reaction is, it mey prove a blessing in disguise. The iron business stirted off last yeor in a legitimate, healthy way,and if speculators had kept out of the trada there would not have been such a craze to buy, prices would not bave gone above $30 or $35 a ton, and the businees would have continued with- ouc any sot-back. But speculators have been taught a wholesome lesson that they will not soon forget, wlile furnace-men and iron-work-rs generally ero manifesting ition not to overstock themarket. Furnaces and mills sre closing up, and the pres- ent indicaticna are that the surjlas wi 1 bo consumed in about amonth or 'x weoke, when tho trade will ssume s healthier tone. In fact, the marke's were in a much more satisfac- tory conduion last week than they have been since the break ocourred. The eales wers mot large, but there was a better fealing, and 1t it is general'y believed that pr.ccs bave reached the bottom, and w'll improve somewhat. But it is too bad thut the cent prospect that was bef re ntry at the opening of the year should b rpoiled by the overwcening desre of our peop'e for speculation. — Americ:n Exports.
