June Ctli, at 10 SO p. in., a mass conventien of all persons wlio art in favor of reform in county, state and national affairs, for the purpose 6f considering the advisability of putting a full county ticket in the -field this fall.

Wisaxs Committee. II. X. Swax Ika Jacksox. CENTJIAMZATIOX. It has always been one of the cardi nal principles of our government that neither paternalism nor centralization should become a part of our policy. Statesmen have warned the people against allowing the government to do what could be done by the states, of allowing the state to do uhat could be done by the county, or the county to do what could be done by the individ ual. The aim has been to keep the government solely within the bounds of its original functious the making and enforcing of laws to raise neeessay funds to carry out its provisions and to defend its honor, t was desijrned to give the greatest possible freedom to the individual without conflicting with his natural right, or competing with him in any avocation. But, as time went forward, and the boundless opportunities offered in this new civilization were developed by the many, they were absorbed by the few. The liberal provisions of our govern ment which allows the strong to reach the utmost limit of thrir endeavor, likewise allows the weak to sink into the lowest depths. It forbids inter ference because that would be tyranny and yet, through its very liberality, it allows the strong to become tyrants over the weak. .No better i"- of this fact can b position -" ..ustration .ound than in the oi the railroads toward the public. These corporations arc abso lute tyrants over the people, just as much as the czar is over all the Kus sias, and yet, as matters now stand the government caunot effectively inter fere. The controversy between Jay Gould and Grand Master Workman Powdcrly is still fresh in the minds of the people. When the latter charged Mr. Gould with being a tyrant over the people, Gould merely referred to this as being a free country and that an individual had the right to do as he pleased in business affairs. The railroads arc paying dividends on millions of dollars that do not rep resent a dollar invested, and every cent taken from the people in this manner is on a par with the highwayman who enforces his demands with a revolver at the head of his victim. This wrong is growing. Its practice takes millions from the people every year. It re duces the profit on the farmers" pro ducts and increases the cost of every thing he buys. It is a curse to him and no good comes out of it. He is compelled to pay a return on this stock that is as mythical as a mirage, besides paying it on the money invested. True, there have been and arc now railroad commissioners appointed or elected in different states, but they have only succeeded in demonstrating the utter incapacity to right the wrong. They have adjusted minor grievances, but this one great evil remains. The Federal government attempted lo ad just rates and remedy pharfS of the trouble through thi? interstate com merce law, but that lias pioicd itself a failure. There i I tit one remedy and that is ' the government. ovi.cr!ii;iti' railroads. It may be a stride tonsrii centraliza tion, Out t!i j J. is pn.-itr.ibie to the ex isting order uf thing-. The coiimvvii tive will dcplt.io thi leafing tmtnrd govcriiniciit.il interference in v.liat lus been carrictl'ou bj the indiiduai; but can the conservative remedy the troub le otherwise? Is there ur can there be any proviMou in the iai'.s that will meet the emergency? Grant that it is a choice between two oi!s. un one who lias Muihcti bolli jm-rUulin can hc.-itate in disrc-mirij: the !t.-er. Political fcoiK.inist-, t-latusineii, poI iticiaus and the people ail feel and un derstand that a change is impct.diug. Things cannot go on as they have here tofore. All recognize it all feel it. Just what form the change will take, none can say, but few doubt it will be otherwise than peaceful. The Ameri cans arc an educated people. They recognize the power of the ballot. Whatever is best will survive, and the people will remain sovereign. There is a quickening sentiment in favor of government ownership of rail roads ana tnai seems to tic tneir incvi-i table fate. Whether or not this will lead to a gradual change in our present policy of nrn interference in indus trial pursuits, and the gradual absorb tion of other projects which prey upon the public, time alone will tell, but the age is tending that way. Trusts and co'inlincs arc merely the centralization of power, and their for mation is obnoxious to the people. Will the opinion prevail tiiat it is less dangerous to have thi centralization in the hands of the government than in the hands of citizens? MAMMOTH CAVE. Nashville, Tenn. Deak Times: Thinking thc,rcadtrs of the Times would be pleased to rc- cievc a description of the great subter ranean domain known as the Mam moth Cave, which is inhabited only by a few insects and animals upon which the bright sunlight never shine, the following brief lines are submitted. The caves are more numerous and much larger than I supposed. It has been several weeks since I, in company with several others, spent the greater part of a day in hunting the wonders to be found there, though a longer time could be well spent. Caves abound in great numbers in Teunesej and Kentucky, but the larg est one is the Mammoth in Kdmotis county, Kentucky. Its discovery was made known to the civilized world about the year lSO'J, by a hunter nam ed Hutchins, who followed a bear to its den. There are about 500 caves in Ed mons county. The Mammoth Cave is the greatest financial resource of the county as it attracts great numbers of persons every year. 1 he hotel regis ter shows about three thousand visi tors this year, coming from the north, south, east and west and some from Europe. Until lately, the cave was reached by rail to Cave City, and thence by stage, a distance of about ten miles; but now there is a branch line iunning direct to the Cave hotel. The hotel is a very - large structure, and has been built part by part, the first being built about 1812 as a cabin for the saltpeter miners. -McLean the the first purchaser of the cave, bought it for the small sum of $10, including 200 acres of land, which has been add ed to until there are 2,000 acres in the estate at present, part of which is wood ed, and small portions of which may be farmed. The estate is now owned by Dr. Croghan's heirs. The total Iongth of the gave, includ ing all sido ways is about 1 5" There aro two ro"- . i - miles. the sbo , .es, the long and ..... The long route is 14 miles the short one 7 and it takes one day to pass through the former. The cave is uow lighted with gas, but previously lamps were used. The charges for passing through the cave is $5.00 for the long route and $3.00 for the short route, that being more than was charged before gas was introduced. A guide always accom panies visitors and points out and explains all the principal points of in terest. Walking down a shady ravine from the hotel, we reached the mouth of the monster cave, the entrance being US feet below the hotel and 191 feet above the Green river, the latter being only a half mile distant. The river is fed principally from underground streams and the water never freezes in the win ter and consequently it makes a fine refuge for boats while the Ohio river is blocked with ice. Just entering the cave a small stream of water is heard dashing down at our side, coming from the ledge above but quickly disappears to be seen no more until its waters mingle with the Green river. Passing on about 300 feet further, and we come to an iron gate which is kept locked to prevent intruders from going farther. The cave is very small at this point. The current of air is very rapid at this point, but further in it seems very quiet. The average temperature is 54 degrees Fall, not varying 2 degrees winter or summer, and the atmosphere is very refreshing. At one time it was thought the air would cure consumption and thirteen persons erected rude cabins quite a distance back in the cave. The cabins aro to bo mx'ii at the prc-cnt time, but it wa nut the place to cure consumpt ion. Several saltpeter vats are to be -con which woie in use about the year 1312. The saltpeter was used during the war. in the Ion;; route there are some 50 dmiies, nr lather chambers, bc?i'k- ii:.my smaller ones. The bat room K a chamber where hundreds of bats find protection dur ing the winter. In the Rotunda, the minor? i 1SI1 exhumed two skeletons the only ones ever found in the cave. Sutcr.il mummies were found in Short e.iw, about half a !iilcditant. Outlined iext week. Tl'C s-e-j.ri's;de!it of tiic Standard Oil Ci::ij'iiy liinl the other day and the papers contained glowing accounts of Ids main charitable deeds. While this spirit is commendable, a good deal of the merit of the thing is takeaway when one remembers that this charita ble money was gotten through the most soulless monopoly that ever cursed a country. " Europe is being shaken from center to circumfrcnce by labor troubles. The agitation often assumes threaten ing attitudes, and force is often used to bring about a recognition of de mand. The population in the United States directly dependent upon the return from agricultural labor for the umjiis of subsistence numbers some 25,000 500, and is 40 per cent, of the entire population; and when, from :ny cause, the purchasing power of two-fifths of the per pic has been destroyed it means lessened employment for others, lower W3ges, aud a lessened purchasing pow er on the part of all industrial classes and more or less commercial stagnation hard times and increase of indebtedness on the part of the body of the produc ers whose wares arc selling at or below the cost of production. That this has for years been the case with the great body of American cultivators admits of no question; and but one result could possibly follow, and that we see in the lessened purchasing power of this great body, and this clearly results in lessening the purchasing power of all other industrial classes. Take one-fourth to two-fifths from the re turns of any considerable body of the people, and you will almost wholly de stroy their power to purchase the pro ducts of the labor of others. And this is just what has been done in the case of the American farmer and, for that matter all the fanners of the temperate zones and his entire in come has been taking the class as a whole no more than to pay taxes, in terest, and provide a bare subsistence for his family. The result is that he wears la.-t year's coat, buji no hard ware, builds lever or no houses and barns, makes his old buggy last anoth er year, and the daughter has to do without the promised musical instru ment, the son caar.ct seouic the edu cation expected, and the makers of hardware, coats, books, pictures, or gans, pianos, fu-niturc and carriages, and teachers, transporters, merchant, jewelers and professional men are but half employed, and find it more diffi cult to buy flour made from 75 cent wheat than they would if wheat had never sold for less than $1.50. C. W. lavis. The Chilians who have been making things lively at the southern end of the western hemisphere for some time arc trying to secure peace by compro mise. When a government secures peace with rebels by compromise, it is not apt to be lastin-r. lirtfirnrir llrt? lin k-..

It is hope.d that every farmer, labor ing man, and all others interested in s;ood government will attend the mass meeting at Ford, June Gth. Italy will not take part in the World's Fair because she is too poor If that is the real reason, her talk about war is somewhat foolish. Ingalls is now out in an interview denying an interview. But it wasn't the alliance sentiment that he denied. The Leavenworth Times claims to be with the people's party, but its ed itorial writers are still republicans. The first of May has been adopted all over the world as labor day. The alliance numbers 250,000 mem bcTrs in Ohio. Xolhing makes a woman so uusighMy as a dark, greasy or yellow skm.
