Individual faolts, homsan fallings, private animosities will be sunk from sight, burled under the fragrant and flowers which speak of a people's gratitude. 1t is a touching and beaatiful custom which we are perpet- uating in this celebration of decora- tlon day. Simple as are the cere- monles, they are pregnant with mean- Ing to the generation which has arisen sloce the oclose of the rebellion, Dulce et desorum mori est patrie, ‘It is sweet and glorfous to die for one's country,” sang the old ' Latin poet. This is the trae significance of the day. Patriotism, valor, self- saorifico and the willingness to yleld up life itself rather than the princl- ples without whose possession a va. tional life would be barren, these are the qualities which we commemorate to-day. Itis a day for the llving no less than for the dead,’ The ideas for which our soldiers fought were vital- ized and chrystalized through the ago- nies of a great conflict and incorpora- ted through thelr herolo valor in the nation’s historloal advancement. It was for us, the living, to preserve what was achleved by the dead. It s for us to perpetuate in progressive actlon that priceless heritage which they pur- chased with thelr blood, Nor to-day will be forgotten the remnant of that mighty army which twenty years ago fought in fearful conflict on many a bloodstalned field in the south. These veterans we still have with us, though year by year a more certaiu conqueror than the battle is rapldly thinning their ravks, The nation will mot foeget the valor of the living in comamemorating the herolsm of the dead. As we watoh the litile poata filing-through our streets to deck thelr comrades’ graves there will still be traces of the old flush of pride which rose to our faces when the boys i blue marched to the front, at their country's call. We cannot and we will not forget that the survivors were exposed to the same perils to which so meny of thele fellows sucoumbed. The sleeveless arms and shattered limbe will tell a scarcely less touching story than the eilent graves which we hasten to cover with our floral offer- inge.

Aiperr Puuntzer's remarkable journalistic succees, the New York Morning Jowrnal, is still the wonder of all contemporaries, Soarcely six months old, it is printing 60,000 cop- fes every day, and furnishing the, ‘pa- trons with the best cheap paper lu the world ; bright, newsy, and edited with a care and vigor which speaks volumes for its management. Srorerary Txuugk pending the ac- tlon of Uongress, has withdrawn from sottlement the Texas Paclfic land grant of 14,000,000 acres in Oall- fornla, Arlzona and New Mexloo. This immense domaln is olaimed by the Southern Pacific as the assignee of the defunot Toxas Pacifio rallroad, and a powerful lobby will beseige the next congress to ratify their title to the property. Every member of con- gress who votes for such a shameful steal will be made to rue the day when he sold himself to the mono- polists, —— A DEPUTATION of dry goods mer- chants appeared before the rallroad trunk line committee in New York to urge a change In classification of cot. ton goods, which are still rated the same as during the war, though now selling at one-tenth what they were then worth. Commlssioner Fink ad- , mitted that the rating of the cheap ocotton fabrics as ‘‘first-class’ was not justified by the risk, but he mald it was for the benefit of trade in general and the dry goods trade shared In the benefits, According to thls the adjustment of freight rates and classification {8 conducted on some- what the same principles as open- ing a street, by a system of benefits d damages, Mr, Fink says it rnauuuy to charge higher rates on ocertain manufactured articles, in order that grain and other - food products can be carried at a rate enabling the farmers to ship to the east. In other words, he taxes up benefils agalnst the manufscturers of co‘ton goods or the dry goods merchants and awards the damages to the farmers, and all for the good of commerce, in order that the crops may move. No doubt 1f river and canal transportation were ‘w0 perfected that the rallroads would not meed to carry any great part of the gralu crop they would at ence re- duoce the rates on ocotton goods, the .. mecessity for a high classification hav: " fng thus Mu.r{mnd.

The machine managers who talked so loudly about punishing the party for ita dis. obadlence last term, are now showing o great deal of anxlety, lest the 200,- 000 ropublioans who refused to vote the tloket a year ago may take the same course this fall, and are lssuing urgent fovitations to the backsliders to come back to the fold and be re- conolled to the bosses. But republicans who repudiated the diotatlon of cor- rapt party bosses show very little in- clination to harmonize on any terms which will restore the political con- ditlon that made revolt a necessity for all honorable voters of the party, The organlzation In Now York is still in the hands of the low grade poli- tlolans, whose arrogant and Insolent diotation and olose corporation methods was alone responsible last fall for republican defeat, If there was any princlple then at stake, de- cent republicans feel that it cannot now be sacrificed by surrender to Mike Dodys and Steve Frenchs and Johnnle Walsh, who rule the republi- can roost through the ward clubs, The dosire for harmony seems slmply that on the one slde the men of the machine are anxlous to patch up a truce, while the decent republicans want to get rid altogether of the ma- chine managers. As long as these are the lssues harmony will be a long way off. —— Anmy officers, generally, do not aps preclate the terrltorlal difficulties which Crock's command will have to overcome In the wild fasinesses of Sonora. A band of Apache marsu. ders when closely pursued will disap- poar as suddenly as it the earth had swallowed them, and in & few days will reappent In‘s rémote and unex. pooled « guarter, The' campalgns wgeinat them ace attended with much fatigne snd danger and emall glory, Bhould our trocps succeed In chas- tising the hostiles and giving security to the frontler the thing s ac- copted generally ‘as a matter of course, while a few homilios are presched about the unnecossary oraclty of this kind of warfare when moral suasion might have suofficed to indnce the Apaches to lay down their arms and go to ralsing corn, If the expedition fall, the hardships and dif- ficulties attendlng it are scarcely taken tnto scsount by the public. Yet thore in nothing in modern warfare that is attended with so much peril and toil, or that so well tests the best qualities of asoldior, as a campaign agalnst the fiores and orafiy Apaches. The trust in that General Crock will retuzn from this expedition in safety, and wath en- tire succens, even If the nature of the wervice 1s not appreciated, JUDGE BLACK AGAIN. Whatever may be Jere Black's poll- tical eccentricities, he is sound on the question of antl-monopoly. Judge Black has glven much study to the re- latlons of the corporations to the peo- ple, and his opinlon will cargy with 1t the welght which is always due to ability, caudor and judiclal impartial- ity. His recent letter to the rall- road committee of the Pennsylvania leglslature will be widely read. It defines clearly the relations of the corporations to the govern- ment, treats in oconcise language the question of the states supervisory pro- cess, and denounces discriminating charges of corporations as a fraud upon their own charters, as well as a gross wrong to thelr patrons, *The fanctions of railroad corpora- tlons,” says Judge Black, ‘‘are as olearly defined and ought to be as universally understood as those of any servant which the state or general government employs, Withount pro- prietary right to the highways, they aro appointed to superintend them for the owners, They are charged with the daty of seelng that every needed facllity for the uso of those thorough- fares shall be farnished to all citlzens, ke the justico promised in Magos Obarta, withort sale, denial or delay. Such services, it falthfully performed, are important and valuable, and the compensation ought to be a fall ‘equivalent; accordingly they are authorized to pay themselves by levying upon all who use the road tax or toll or freight sufficient for that purpose. But this tax muost bo reas- onable, fixed, certain and uniform, otherwise 1t 1a a frand upon the pso- plo which no department of the state government, nor all of them combined, has power to logalize, Now, where is the express grant of power to take more than a fair and reagonable toll for the use of any rail- road? In what act of Incorporation is it stipulated that the state may not adjast the tolls according to what she, by her proper authorities, shall deem a reasonable rule! The sole an- swer ever given to this is, that in wome, if not all of the ohar- ters, there is a provision forbidding the company to make any charge be- youd a gertaia rate per ton mile, and from this prohibition sgainst tak- ing more they infer the right to take, in spite of the state, anything they please under that maximum, whether it be reasonable or not. But it is pre- olscly such inferences that you cannot minke; thoy are excluded by tho rule of interprotation already mentioned. Neither does thelr practico of dis— crlmination find the elightest counte- nance in any word of the charters, Whore did you ever see an act of In- ocorporatlon expressly declaring that the company shall have power to make a difference between two oftizens whose logal and natural rights to the use of the highways are precisely the same? Where do yon find the words which clothe any eompany with the awful power to crush out the basiness of one man with burdens which he cannot beur, in order that another, in which the raliroad has an interest, may be bullt up? But especlally and partioularly I desire to know what part of any bargaln with the state Jjustifies the extortion of higher rates from a poor man, on his littlefreights, than from a rich one on his great and valuable cargoes? If you oannot put your finger on the very words that give this authority, then the authority is withheld and the practice forbldden, Bat this is not all. From the ve: nature of the contract, the limitation of the charges to rates perfeotly and uniformly proportioned to weight and distance is apparent, The common- wealth, reserving the equal proprle- tary rights of all the peopleto the use of the highway, agrees to employ a corporation as her agent to see that the exerolse of the right by every olti- zen is properly facllitated, and never, in any case, impeded, delayed or hin- dered. The agent to do this service at rates whlx, in the aggre- gate will be a reasonable compensation for all the labor and expense of it. As between the state, who is the em- ployer, and the corporation, who s the employee, the contract ia an entire one, a lump bargaln, an agreement to do the whole job, which compre- hends all the carrying for all the peo- ple on that highway at a prlce for which the only measure furnished by the contract {s weight and distance, Whenover, In those acts of Incorpora- tlon, any mention Is made of rates, taxes or tolls, they are spoken of as proportioned to the use made of the road by him who pays them—so much per ton per mlle, whether the miles be mauy or few, up grade or down, witkout regard to the number of tons carrlied at one time, or at difforent tlmes, for the same shipper, Reasoning fairly from premises known to be true, you caunot escape the conclusion that the exiravagant and disorlminating charges of these corporations are a fraud upon thelr own charters, as woll as a groes wrong to thelr vietims, The contracts they fuvoke to save them from the justice of the state are as strong agalnst them s the conatitution itself. This {s sound antlmonopoly doc- trine based on the common law and fortified by an increasing majority of our states. ‘If1t were not for the daily dentals by the rallroad mavagers of their obligationt to the people, Its onunolatlon: wonld be unnecessary. The long line of declsions have riveted the origlaal jadgement in the Gran- gor oases, and e forever mettled the power of the pople, through thelr legislatures, to curb the aggression of srrogant corpersiions, and compel them to deal cquitably with thelr patrone, The people have the law on their slde and thepower in thelrhands, 1t remains only to enforce the one and to apply the othar. —— A Significant Decislon, 8t. Louls Globe-Domocrat, The declslon recently rendered by the supreme court of the Unlted States in the Rozgles case Is one of more than usual Interest and signifi- eance. It is, In & goneral way, a mere affirmation of former declsions to the effect thata state has power to regulate the charges of raliroads, Bat it does not stop there, It goes on to declare that this power may be exer— cied In a case where the charter granted by euch state to a rallroad company contains provision auchor- Izing said company to fix the rates of toll. In other words, iv {s held that a olause of this kind in a railroad charter Is not a contract restraining the atate from Interforence with the matter of charges as the public inter- ests may seem to require, but must be construed as a grant to be exerclsed subject to the soverelgn power of the atate, A different deoislor was contended for and predloted by very able law- yors, but it ls not easy to eee how any other conolusion than thls one counld have been reached by ths court. To say that a state has vested In a cor- poration an absolute right to charge what it pleases for public service s to say that the te has parted to that extent with Its sover— eignty, which {e nefther good law nor correcs logic. Sovereign authority is nothing unless it be complete and in- divisible, There can not be two sov- oreignties at the same time in the ssme place over the same thing, and yeot that would have to ensue if the state parted absolutely with any share of itaorlginal power to control and regalate the public transactions cf a corporation, 1t Is argued, to be nure, that a grant of Inmunity from leglsla— tive control does not amount to In- vesting the grantee with sovereignty; but the distincilon 18 technical and fallaclous, as well as mischlevous, The obvionsly true ground is that taken by the courtin this case, name- ly: that all such grants must “be con- strued in the lighs of the established power of the state to exerclse the gov- erning sway at its pleasure, and without reference to any presumed or inferential exception therefrom, This declsion will materially help to strengthen the system of rallroad supervision through commissioners which a goodly number of the states have adopted; and on that account, it no other, it is a thing to be thank- fal for. The railroad problem i the biggest and most perplexing one of the age, and this commissioner system | seems to promise more In the practical solution than anything that has yet been devised. It isstill an experl- ment, of course, and it has a great many embarrassments to contend with; but as a general thing, 1t appears to work advantageously, and whatever tends to justify and promote it as an influence in what lovks to be the right direotion.., A great pcint has been gsined when the highest sourt of the country decisively announces the right of a state to control and regulate the affairs of rallroads not only in a gen- eral way and subject to varying con- ditions, bat fundamentally, and in spite of lawyers' quirks and sophls— tries. Oan that point, at least, thereis no longer any room for question; and the rallroads are not Iikely to make any farther . reslstance in the matter, If & charter provlsion giving to the directors, as in this case, ‘‘the power to establish such rates of tolls tor the conveyance of persons or property as they shall from tima to time by their by-laws determine’ 1s not a grant of fixed authority, but only a permission that may be revoked or disregarded at tho will of the state —and that is what the supren.e court s 1t Is—then there is nothlng left :o cavil about, Ty | form of an adjunct or supplement to and states have the amplest warrant for assuming supervisory control of the operations of the rallroads within thelr respeotive limits, 1t is doubifal, however, if the problem ocan be thoroughly solved without an eventual resert to some sort of natlonal supervision, either in the the state system, or as & separate and comprehensive expedient superseding everything else. The principal diffi- calty that a state has to encounter s the fact that its authority stops when it reaches the line, while railroads of any lmportance extend farther and, like Desdemons, ‘‘have a divided duty.” Thus, what is practicable in one state may be found entirely im- practicable In an adjolning one, and yet the operations of the road pertain equally to each of them. For in- stance, in an agricultural state, where most of the produot s marketed at a distance, the state ls powerless to make any regulatious as to tolls that will follow the bulk of a road's business far enough to answer atdebnite and controlling -purpese. The thing that courts with the pro. ducer is the final price that his shiv. ment commands at the end of the journey, and that journey may cross two, three or half a dozen different states baving different and conflicting laws and schedules of charges, Where a state markets or consumes all {ts surplus product within its own bor ders, it may control its rallroads and thelr relations to commerce in a full and positive fashlon; but not many states are so situated. As a rule, the adjustment of local rates does not touch the principal traffic; that 1s governed by the through rates, which ocover the whole distance between the farm where the graln is raised and the leading markets where prices are determined. In course of time this diffionlty may be obviated by sep- arate action of the states In the fixing of uniform or practically continuous rates and regulations, for thelr mutual protection and advantage. The ten- dency of state supervision of rallroads is manifesfly in that direction. Bat there are numerous hindrances to overcome before such a result can be reached; and taking everything Into consideraltion, it Is hardly rrnunnuble[ to expect that the matter will be con- clusively and satlsfasterily disposed of antil we apply a remedy that shall be notlonal in its character and froe from the complications that must always beset state action npon a subjcot so wide-reaching and generally import— ant, Tribune, writing from England, ex- E!-rtud a hotel In London, there are enough dlsgusted Amerleans to fill three hotels run upen the sys- tem In vogue In the United States.
