SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 11?. 1898.
|l; j! ?HIHI ivu^Ymrnincod that the Attorney
General of the United States is looking
:; into the recent race troubles in South
and North Carolina, with a view to de?
ciding whether or not Federal interfer?
ence in tile matter is necessary. In :i
perfunctory and formal way such an
investigation is probably all right, but
it is to be hoped that it will nm result
decision to interfere in an affair
which had much better lie left
itself. Then, loo, li seems ti
the Attorney General should i
partial in his investigations,
paper reports may be believed there ai
more serious complications in Illino
than in North and South Carolina. I
the Prairie State, mob law has not onl
taken the place of the legally i-instili
ted authority in some places, but tl
governor of the State overrides lb.i
stitulion of the United States with in
puity. Naturally, .very law
Southerner regrets tl.ecui-rem
Carolinas?regret that they wei
sary?hut it can at least be sin
the officials of the comi
ferred to not only did not partiell
? the troubles, but did everything ii
power to restore order. So far
punishment of those concerned
riotous condui t is concerned, evi
telligent person must realize thii
is well" nigh an impossibility to secure
sufficient evidence to convict in such
cases, whether Uncle Sam or lb,. Stale
stands as protector. It is unn.ssary
to go back to the "Boston Tea I'ally"
in order to verify this statement. This
being the case, it would evidently lie
the part of wisdom to let the matter
diop.
Then- has been lots or talk about the
? closing up of the bloody chasm between
the North and the South, and Die people
of "Dixie" hailed friendly protestations
of their ancient ff.es with gladness Is
this partiality on the part of ib.- Attor?
ney General of the United States one
of the first fruiis of lb., reunion of the
sections? Will not the South be justi?
fied in treating these protestations with
suspicion if South and North Carolina
are to be rebuked and coerced because
of the actions of irresponsible mobs,
while the governor of Illinois is allowed
to abrogate the rights of American cit?
izenship without protest on the part of
the national government?
thai
In advertising, as in any other branch
of business, the man who has space to
seil, usually has an adequate idea of its
value, and'no one with an lota of busi?
ness sense can for a moment expect that
cheap advertising rates justify the ex?
pectation of good results from an adver?
tisement. When a man pays shoddy
prices for a suit of clothes he expects
to get shoddy goods; that is business.
When a man pays shoddy advertising
'rates he should expect shoddy results;
but whether he expects them or nm they
. what he gets.

: Jlttle about the Gothem feline, but if its

Disagreeable Situation in I'.attory A.

A special dispatch from Philadelphia

state that during the period mentioned
Ihoy not only ... . not receive any extra

their fall share of government rations.
"Regarding the uniforms, for which
$10.0." is charged, the tii"n say He y wer.
led to believe that thev were a gift l<

such a uniform is slightly over $7. and
the voting artillerymen will make a
