THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 25, 1878.
STARTLING IDEAS.
Anew party has been organized in the
United Status fithin a few years, whose
object is tbe entire overthrow of our
present social system. It is called the
Hocialistic Labor Party. It was organized
by a few Germans, most of whom left
Europe to avoid being punished for tboir
revolutionary ideas. They claim that a
few persons are every day becoming
wealthier, while the working men are
starving because they are oppressed by
oariir.nl and burdened with taxes: that
tho invention of now machinery has oon
tinued until the moneyed man has become
supreme, and tho laborer a mere abject
tool of bis: that every now invention
throws more men ont of employment; and
that, under our present system, invention
is a curso to mankind. They proposo to
remedy this by vesting tho title to all
moans of production, land included, in
the State, and having it worked on the
co-operative plan, so that every laborer
shall be a part owner, and shall bo paid
aocording to the valuo of his work.
They propose to make eight hours a
working day for the present, but to lessen
the number if the invention of new
machinery should lessen the demand fur
working men, and not to allow any man
to work more than the fixed time, lest he
should make it impossible for someone
else to pbtain labor at all. Prices are to
be regulated [it doos not appear by whom]
between the employer and the employed
until the laborer becomes a partner under
the co-operative plan. Children under
fourteen are not to be allowed to Work;
education is to be compulsory, and all
schools and universities are to bo free.
All savings banks arc to bo abolished,
and ovary man is to be taxed the same
part of his income.
They'claim that the working men of
this country suffer more than ihoso of
other countries; not that they have
actually fower o’f theoomforts of life than
those of othor lands, but that they have
been accustomed to enjoy many comforts
of which they are now doprivod, and they
<eel the loss keenly. They are nearly all
infidels, but say they have no wish to
meddlo with tho church except to tax
ohuroh property. They claim that they
east 2000 votes in New York at the Inst
election, and that thoy will cast 10,000 in
the next: that they cast 8,000 votes in a
reoent election in Chicago, and that thoy
can control 00,000 votes in tho United
Stater• One of them savs, “All the
members are working men, and deter
mined to get thoir rights as well as they
can, but to got them anyhow.’’
HAVES ANI) THK RKPtII.ICANS.
Throe times in the history of this
country has a President failed to carry
out the policy of those by whom he was
nominated for office. Whtn Tyler, in
1841, vetood tho bill re-chartering the
United States bank, and thus disappoint
ed tiro expectations of the Whigs, who
hud elected him vice president, he lost, j
the support of that party; of most, im
mediately, and of all. soon. When An j
drew Johnson opposed the reconstruction !
measures, the wrath of the Republican ,
party fell upon his head.
Whether llayes will escape a similar ;
outpouring of party indignation, cannot
be determined at present. There is very
little room for doubt that .all the leaders
of the Republican party Feel that he bas
abandoned the policy to which thoy con
sidered him pledged: whether tho wish to
punish him will fie overbalanced by a
conviction that to do so will damage the
party in the next Presidential elootion,
remains to be seen. At a caucus held
two or three weeks ago, so great was the
diversity of opinion that no result was
reached. Somo believed that by making
open war upon Mr. Hayes the Republican
can elect a majority of the Representa
tives iu the next Congress- Others ap
parently thought tho issuo of euoh a
policy doubtful. They voted down a
proposition to send a delegation to Mr.
Hayes to talk about his course. Mr.
Conkling, Senator from New York, is
probably as much entitled to be con
sidered a leader in the party as aiiy oue.
His uncomplimentary opinion of the ad
ministration is thus given by that excel
lent pkper, the Sovnn.iah A r ao:
“The New York World publishes a
long interview with Senator Conkling, in
which that gentleman is reported to have
said that, there was a bargain made be
tween the friends of Governor Nichols, of
Louisiana, and Hayes; that this bargain
would certainly eventually be known;
that as a result the whole country will be
appalled by tfco dishonor of this adminis
tration, and that never in tho history of
tho nation has there been so much barter
ing of offices and corruption generally as
lias been carried on during the pnst
year.”
How far tho parly loaders will judge it
pnldent frrgo in opposition to tbe Preei- f
lie fit fwlom they themselves intalloai in
tho White .House, future developments
will show. Some things seem to indicato
that the disposition to attack him is dying
out. Tho N. Y. l’riln'iie says tjliat this
is a Republican adminiMration, that the j
Republicans are responsible lor it, and |
that it is a pretty good one.
TWEED AND ASOTUEU.
Tho voice of condemnation against
William M. Tweed is not hushed even in
the presence of death. All agree that it
should not, be. His bier is Strewn, not with
flowers, but with shame. He breathed
his last within prison walls; no wife nor
child smoothed his dying pillow Mercy
was notfhnwn him living, and commiser
ation is withheld from him dead. Pot
what reason is all this? Mr. Tweed was
a man of amiable and generous parts, a
man of peace and not of violence.
It is, because he was a fubf?') robber.
Of what did he rub the people? Of t hell 1
money. Great was his offence, aad'tor
tibly did be expiate it—even with his life,
for it was his imprisonment that killed
him.
It'itknown that, Mr. Twued’srobberies
amounted to millions of dollais. Is there
anything belonging to tho American
poop's moro valuable than theso millions
of dollars? There is something held in
higher estimation; something ' fir the
preservation of which wo spent, between
1860 and 1865, an amount of money in
comparison with which tho sum takch by 1
Mr. Tweed, is hardly worth mentioning
or thinking of, and spent in addition the
more valuable treasure of hundreds of
thousands of lives.
This precious possession is the right to
govern ourselves, to have rulers of our
own choioe, the choice of the whole
nation, and thus to preserve tho libcrtios
of the people.
Now, there is a man 'living who has
robbed the American people of this In
valuable right. He has prevented them
from having a F’rcsidcrtt of their choice.
If you look in Ludlow street jail you will
not find him there; and yet his crime is
greater than Tweed s. You will not find
him in any prison: You will find him in
the Executive Mansion, more popularly
known as the Whito House, in Washing
ton. His name is Hut erford II- llayes.
It is a name which deserves to bo sur
rounded by blacker lines than those
which enclose the name of William M.
Tweed.— N, Y. Sun.
A Washington dispatrh to tho Now
York Sun, tolling how the people re
ceivod their first Fraudulent President,
says: “General remark bus been excited
to day by tho neglect which Hayes met
yestoiday on his trip to Chester, Pa. Tho
ofiloe of President has always been a pop
ular ono, and some demonstrations have
always followed the appearance of a
President elected by (be people. Hayes
drew none yesterday. On the way dow.u
his oar was deserted. The little circle of
prominent and distinguished men which
usually surrounds a President was absent.
None sought his company. Senators,
Representatives and notable politicians
were on tho train by scores, but he was
left to the company of Rodgers and his
Cabinet. At Wilmington he appeared
for an instant on the platform and was
met with a cheer, not remarkable for
volume, but still a recognition of his
presence- At. Chester he received every
mark of respect from the corporation,
but tho people had nothing to say. On
his way down the street in his four-horse
barouche ho bowed right and left to silent
throngs, and in the yard, when a filo of
troops forced a passage for him to pass
from plaeo to place, people looked on in
silence without a cheer.
A Washington correspondent of the
Now Oilcans Democrat says: “The im
portant fact must bo kept in vie w that the
forty-sixth Congress will count the votes
for Presideffil and Vico Presideut. The
who bavq fully decided to
run Grant in 1880, aud who depend upon
another eight-to-seven arrangement to
oount him in, see no earthly hope except
in a control of one branch of Congress
Hence, we may say that, to all iutanre and
purposes, the Presidential oainpaign of
ISBO will be docidod in the Congressional
elections of next fall, to this extent, to
wit: That if the Democrats retain control
of the House aad thereby gaiu a complete
aseendonoy in Congress, the choice of a
Democratic President in 1880. is a fore
gone conclusion. But if the Republicans
own get control of the House, a train of
possible dynamite will be laid tor anot hor
Ox plosion of the constitution, if necessa
i ry, similar to that by which Mr. Hayes
i was heaved upward ink* the White
j House."

A UIILL. AND LION FIGHT.
About the Jut inst. a'menagerie came
to San Antoryo, Becoming in
volved iu debt, the proprietors arranged
fight between their African lioness and
a Texas Lull. Ttyey fought on the 6th
inst., three or four miles from the town,
in presence of a thousand or more persons,
th e animals were turned loose in an Iron
cage 110 foot jn circumference. The bull
was put in first. When the lioness sprang
in, he eyed ber suspiciously, hut o6n
tinued to chew his cud. The lioness
slipped around behind the bull and
jumped on,hiip. .His hide was so thick
apd tough that her teeth and claws would
not penetrate it, and the bull shook her
off', caught her on his horns, and tossed
her in the air. Tho fall broke one of her
ribs, and she retreated, growling. The
bull pursued her, and again sent her sail
ing through the air. . Bracing herself
against tho side of the cage, and standing
upon her hind feet, she waited for him to
attack her agaiu.. He rushed upon hor,
forced her to thp ground, and fell upon
his knees, butting her in the head'. This
closed tho which bad lasted twelve
minutes.
Tho sequel to the combat came off oil

As goon as this was drawn :• ido, Tige
rushed at the lion and tossed him in ttie
air. The lion fell henrily, but instantly
sprang at the bull. Tige caught him on
his horns, and again throw him into tho
air, goring him badly. The lion fell
against the bars of the cage,-and was so
badly bruised that he would fight no
more. The curtain was then drawn be
tween them, and Georgo’s mute, whom
Tige had whipped last week, was turned
in. Old Tige first sent her sailing through
the air, and then treated George to a
similar experience. They both crouched
by the side of tho Cage, and Tige walked
up and smelled of them, and pawed the
ground, but they hud had enough of him.
The bull is ten years old. and very
savage, lie has killed five bulls in single
combat. On the Mth be gored ono of

killed their keeper in Tennessee three
years ago.
The people about San Antonio expect
a fight soon between Old Tige, and three
Mexican bull-fighters- Next thoy expect
to witness a fight between a lion and a
tiger. Alas! Is our boasted civilization
any better than the barbarism of other
days ?

i “ch-r-ii drinking”—aim which is the very
'W'ioi.. u) of drinking. By this 1 menu
tlifj kind where a man g'ta a full glass
of whisky lor a nickel. You will remem-'
U r that the greatest nuisance we ever
had in Atlanta was a 5 cen.s but-room,
it was a long rpom in which there were
two; rows of barrels. These bar.els were
idled with raw whisky, and each was
mounted with a it a cup and furbished
with a faucet. A custo.ua: would come
in, baud tho cashier a nickel, step back
to one of the ba rets, take down the cup,
fill it with your liquor, and gulp it dowu.
There were maD.v customers who could
get drunk on a single drink, and few of
them who eoubl bold their souses under
the influence of two drinks. Here we have
a crowd of men, half of them getting
drunk on a nickel, and the rest on a dime.
No man was too poor to make a beast of
himself, and become a drunken, irrespon
sible creature. This "cheap drinking”
did more harm than tbe city could stand,
aud consequently the lloense was revoked
and the place shut up.
“Now the Moffoti boil-punch would
prevent the re-establishment of suoh a
place as this. It would do away with
five'cent drinks. It would raise the price
of drinks of all kinds, and consequently
increase the figures at whioh a man could
intoxicate himself. It would consequently
diminish drunkenness, in my opinion.
Now this seems strange to a man who
spends a dollar or two a day on driuks'
lint it is a matter of great iift 00-iance to
the poor man. who works for a trifle, and
is often out of money. Ymvwiil readily
grant that to quadruple the price of drinks
would diminish drinking. I content!,
simply, that to raise tbe price at all,
would have the same tendency. The
Moffett register would certainly riiiu the
price 5 cents a drink. The cheapest
drinks would thus be doubled in price, or
diminish in quantity.
“The second point jn which the Moffett
register would help the temperance cause
is this. It will prevent any more credit
drinking. It is the settled determination
of the bar keeepers to do no credit busi
nfeks, after they adopt the regia tor They
claim that no man could have the impu
dence to ask them to credit him for li
quor and at tho same time pay the State
a fee for the privilege of doing it. Tipi
abolition of tho credit System would stop
a great deal if drinking, and that too of a
very, .g'y sort of drinking. W hen a
man out of wnrjj and out of icuiiey, j
be could not drink. Tilts is the (jmo
when men are tempted most, .and it is the
i imewiicn they arc m istin uqe-1 of dear
blinds aipl economical and steady, habits.
It is the time when yjieir umfflies need
. i; m .i.-st, and when a drunken spree
would be most fatal to them. As things
are now, about the first thing a man does
wiion he is iu this fix is to start a score in
some bar room, and keep hituself soaked
in liquor; trying to drink off his trouble,
he Will say if you ask h'm about, it
Under the new system, he will find it
impossible to get liquor when out of cash,
and must perforce remain sober. You
cannot roadilv conceive ho much liquor
drinking th's one thing of ‘no credit’ will
put a stop to. It may be aocepted as
sure, as the barkeepers will adhere vig
orously to the cash system when they
have the register. lam convinced that
in these two items of raising the price of
drinks, and putting an end to tbo credit
system, wo .-hall see liquor drinking very
perceptibly Tarnished. For this reason,
I should like to see tho Moffett register
adopted.
“I do not agree with Mr. Thrower,’’
our talker went on to say, “on another
score- He says l\e does notbelievo in
taxing viec, or in deriving a revenue from
sin. Well, I look at it in this way. We
cannot abolish liquor drinking. We
have tried it for years and years. All
the machinery of the law has been invok
ed to this end, and iu some of tiie States
the most stringent laws have been en
acted. All this, however, to no purpose.
The sin bas gone on despite all. he efforts
of law and government. Now I propose,
as we cauuot abolish this sin, to saddle
it with all the burden that we can legiti
mately put upon it. If we cannot extir
pate it, let us oripple it. Let us send
it staggering and disabled through the
world if we cannot kill if Lot us tax it

The Senate lias passed a bill to repeal
the bankrupt law by a vote of 37 to 6.
A resolution has been introduced in the
JldtP-c proposing as a constitutional
amendment,''biennial sessions of Con
gress.
There is considerable talk of re-opening
1 the I'rcsideDtial question. A bill has been
, introduced into the House of Rep’esen-
authorizing suit in the United
St.:tos Supreme Court to test title,
ft esoiutjans to the scene effect, passed by
the Maryland legislature, have also been
presented in both houses. Senator Den
nis, who laid them before the Senate,
spoke against them, and was highly com
plimented by Gen. Gordon.
Considerable is said about frauds in
obtaining contracts for carrying the mails,
in which it is charged that by means qf
combinations, a few persons manage to
secure all tbe important routes at such
prices that they can sub-let them, and
make a handsome proflt—sometimes as
high as 50 per cent. Certainly the as
sembled wisdom of the nation ought to be
able to devise a remedy for th ! s.
The select pommittee. of the Senate to
revise the lad which regu&tea the; count
ing of the electoral votes, have agreed
upon a bill which does not essentially
change the present method, bat wh’ch, it
is said, removes its defects. The two
committees (of the Senate and House of
Representatives) will discuss tbe dif
ferent propositions together, and, if pos
sible, agree to report tho same plan to
both branches of Congress.
The fraauce committee of the Senate
have agreed to recommend that after July
Ist legal tenders be receivable for duties
on imports, and forJV.Br-per-oent bonds at
par, and that, when t>tf-llht<rthe treasury,
they shall be re-issued instead of being
destroyed or retained in the vaults. A
law ia in force now requiring SBO,OOO in
greenbacks to be withdrawn from circula
tion for evory 1100,000 of national bank
notes issued to anew bank. They recom
mend the repeal of this. The Sooth will
be most benefited by this as she has not
near as many national banks as the law
allows her, while the North and Eust
cannot, according to law, establish many
more.
A month ago Gen. Sherman expressed
him. elf veiy decidedly in favor of an in
crease of the army, saying that a force of
from 25,000 to 30,000 men is absolutely
necessary. He thought that we were
almost certain to be obliged to fight
several Indian tubes this spring. Tho
news published in the papers then did
point very strongly in that direction, as
it was said that Sitting Bull was collect
ing warriors from other tribes around
him, which lie would not be likely to do
unless he was meditating a hostile expedi
tion, as it wasdifficult for those who have
been with him all the time to find game
for their own eating, and pasture for their
ponies, tfonie papers said at the time
that such reports wore always stalled
about the ti ne when Uimgress was con
sidering the appropriations for the army;
and perhaps these accounts were of the
stereotyped sort. Nothing of that sort
has been‘published for some weeks, so far
as we have sofcn. The troubles on the
Mexican border, which he brought for
ward as another argument in favor of an
increase, have quieted down very much.
The Mexican government seems to bo
exciting its power in earnest in that
direction, and with good effect. In view
of this oontlition of affairs, most persons
will be apt to thhik that the House com
mittee was right in cutting down the army
to 20,000 men, and diminishing the num
ber of officers.
The Houses of Parliament in Loudon
have sunk over two inches within a year.
The Congress of this country sinks that
much every day.
