It is said that Hayes will appwroue the Legislative bill and veto the army bill aud,the judicial test oath< bill. The arn-" bi1 plrov'des that no in.iey shall be expended in maliug the troops do police duty.. The,Judicial bill provdes that the ftries shall be drawn from lists prepared by members of the two chief political parties. It abolishes the test oath. What the )enocrats will do in that contingency has )ot yet been divulged. The Scnate re fused. by a majevity o' one to take up Warner'i silver bill. llampton paired for the consid.eration of the hill and U.n t ier against it. Senator Bayard got a little warm becauso it was pro posed to force the bill from the com mittee's hands, where it lay buried, umdi o rei his resigna tion as chairman of the ce uni(tee. No action has yet been takerk. Every one says Congress will adjourn soonl, but It still sits. Throwing Bown the Gauntlet. The-Chtrlotte, Columbia and Augus tz lailroad' has cooll' ati deliberately thrown downt the gauntlet to (lie peo plC ofFaMreld, and it now rcmains to be seen what. the lattev are going to do about it. While a suit is pending against the road ftr violation ofits char ter in charging on cotton a dollar ai a quarter a bile for transportion to Co lumbli, fle authorities loliberatelv raise the tariW to two dollars anil thirty cent., not only three timtles what. it is conlt.endd1 is (lie legal charge hut more than twice the charge act IlI ly made lretofore. There was not (lie slightest pretext in the world for trie charge. No cotton is sllin;g, and there will be none until the fill, anud the road and the ierchains will not be llty dollars better or worse off for it between 11ow an(1 the l;ll trade. it is mere a i9ecof bull-doziug, of biu. f einik'av rinig to hil,y the opposite parly out of It a cse that. the roHd would rather end outside of court. lhan in it. If the people become alarmed at. the ptrospect of the Iwo-thirly 1igure, and back dow a fromn the ease, (he road can go on geting its dollar and a quarter instead of risking the ehmiuce of coming down to eighty-one cents. Every one is famntiliar with tat) olt c mw cares-how that several years ago it was almost an impossibility to gel a cent out of the railroad for stock destroyed, alt bough (lie law lay with the stock owner. The course was easy because the railroad was power ful and rich, and the poor stock owner * c~oo"d niot- lhIt it einud..hnng iil. e F had to hiubly take wuhat lhe could get., not, w~hat was is right. The roads then wi-nt furt her and to clinuch the mait telr wentiI into thme Supreme Court. wi'th a great flourish of trumpel)ts to re verse thle old "Danmer case," which threw the burden of proof of 1no negligence on the raliroad. t waes conifldently' asserted flhat the Court 'would reverse thme decislin, anid claitn.. anlts, getting a little wenk ill the knees, compromised on what they could get. * ~ But for somne reason or oIlier the Court did1 not vilew the matter as (the roads did(, and1( it qulietly3 re-atlirm ed the Danner case in all its force. 'The r'oadsl hav'e come dlown. a pe'g or' so since then and are now glad to coim p)romlise. The present move is of al pliece with the other, and is likely to have the same fate. Although the cottoni questioni has ntever been decided, the point raised by 'the railroad has already beeni igpiored in the case of Knox (i Gill. There a most eiaborate argument was * utmade in julstification of the overcharge on cotton; but the Court allowedi dam ages in fall for the plalintitl', without alluding in any way to this particular I)Olut raised. We will be imuich sur1 p)rlsed if ai jury and( Suipremo Court dlecide that cotton packed in bales is not * a weighty article. In) a contest bet ween a corporation and individuals the corporation ailway~s has the best of It in the beginning, be eas it has superior resources and can better afi'ord to make a desperate fIght. But when diflerent individuals combine, and, better still, when the people bellevo that they are illegally oppressed by corpo rations 'chartered for' their benefit, the corp)oratlons will bo:.broughit to termep.
