DEuOCRArIC ARlTHHErIC.

Here is the Democratic style of reason
ing: Say Maine gave 80. 600 majority for
Grant in 1872 and but $4,000 for Conner
in 1876. therefore there ia falling OH
Of $1,000 Radical votes in four years.
Eighteen thousand votes in four years is
at the rate Of 4. 500 votes per annum. At
this rate. in three years more the Re-
publican party will be nowhere in Maine.
and as Maine has bigger Republican
ratio than Indiana, Ohio and New York,
therefore Tilden will be the next Presi-
dent. This is Democratic algebra. Ra-
Their il is abstruse consolation based upon
Reformatory premises. Now let's illus
trate this kind of maihe mates by another
method: In 1863 John Brough was
elected Governor of Ohio by majority
of los, 600 votes over Clement G. Val
landigham. In 1879. just ten years after
wards. Fog Horn Allen was elected Gov
ernor Of that State by the Democracy.
Hence the Republican party in Ohio is
wiped ont. obliterated and gone to the
dogs. But" says some incorrigible
Black Republican. Hayes has since
been elected Governor of Ohio by the
Republicans" Very true, but look at
Old Broush's majority. If Ohio fell off
more than one hundred thousand Re-
publican votes in ten years, how are you
going to elect Hayes when the Republi-
cans must have Ohio? And then look
at California. That State in 1868 elected
Fred Low. Republican. by 20, 900 major
ity. 1t beat Gorhsm. Republican. in
1867 BY six or seven thousand and elect
ed Kaisht. How are you going to get
oyer that kind of arithmetic? Well, 1t
is a tremendous problem; and if the
doing of sums in arithmetic by rules
prescribed in advance by an imaginary
and imaginative Democratic Electoral
College can beat Hayes he will be de-
molished; Maine is on the broad road to
the devil, and it is merely a question OF
time when Vermont will cast it's fortunes
with the Southern Confederacy. But
let's vote this once. just as if the day of
doom were not at hand, and all arith-
metics were not suddenly become iDfal-
lcie Democratic arguments.

HENRY A. WISE.

The death of Henry A. Wise closes
very remarkable career. HE was
born," says Lanman. lin December
1906, in Drummondtown, Accomac
county. Virginia; graduated at Washing
ton College, Pennsylvania. at the age of
nineteen; studied law, and Was admit
ted to the bar at Winchester. Virginia.
in 1928; the same year removed to Nash
vile. Tennessee, and practiced his pro-
fession for two years. when. from local
attachment, he returned to Accomac.
and became q Representative in Con-
Rress, serving from 1888 to 1874, when
he resigned his seat for the mission to
Brazil, which post he occupied until the
fall of 1S47. He was appointed Min
lister to France in 1913. and resigned.
but the Senate did no. confirm him, and
he was Immediately returned to Con
gress. IL IS4S he was one Of the Pres
idential Electors of Virginia. In 1850
he vas . member of the Reform Conven-
ton of Virginia, which adopted the
present Constitution of the State. In
1852 he was again Presidential Elector;
and in 1855 he was elected Governor of
Virginia, which Office he held until
1860. Served in the great rebellion as
Bripadier- General This is a faithful
outline of Wise's career, but it fails to
state that when he was elected Governor
of Virginia in 1855 he defeated Thomas
Flournoy, the candidate of the Know
Nothing party, in one of the most men,
orable contests ever held in this country.
It also neglects to make reference to the
fact that in 1859 when John Brown of
Ossawattomie scared the senses out OF
Virginia. Henry A. Wise was the Gov
ornor Of that State. and. after visiting
the stern old hero in prison came out
and testified that Brown was "the
gamest man in tine world" Wise's life
was fierce and stormy one, full of hot
controversies and bitter fights. His was
an cratic nature. displaying much
genius, meeting and inviting much o2-
position and by its strange, Wierd
flights counting attention and evoking
praise from friends and admirers, and
denunciation and unspairiDg ridicule for
enemies and unfriendly critics. Wis.,
was an incurable rebel and most in
corrieible Yankee hater; but We esteem
him to have been an honest man and DO
mere juggler in politics.

A VETERAN PRINTER. find
the following interesting notice in the
New York Herald of Sep. 4:
Last Wednesday Charles Mcpevitt,
an honored member Of the typosraph-
ical fraternity died and yesterday he
was buried. His life was of peculiar
interest. The Herald reporter on his
way to the funeral met the vetran
journalist of the State, Mr.. Thurlow
Weed, going to pay the las. tribute OF
respect to an old and dear friend. Mr..
Weed said, 81 have known Charley
McDevitt for fifty-five or sixty years.
The first tract issued by the Ameri-
can Tract Society, about the year
1916, was set up by Mr.. McDevitt, and
he and l worked it off together in
Daniel Fanshawe's Office, at No. III
Cliff street, in this city. He Joined the
New York Typographical Society
soon after did. joined in 1916. AT
the time of his death he was the oldest
member of that society that had not
missed a meeting for more than fifty
wears He was ever active in hunting
up and providing for sick members
and extending aid to those in distress.
l left the city in 1918, and excepting
occasionally since then l nave not
been acquainted with his work for
tiftv wears. l always attended the
meeting Of the society when l was in
town. In 1919 went to Albany as a
journeyman printer, and during the
next year started paper for myself
in the adjoining counties. In 1880, l
went back to Albany and started the
Albany Evening journal. MIR. McDe-
witt then went on the New York Mir
ror. He remained with it after i, was
changed to an evening paper, and at
the close of its existence went on the
New York Ledger, where he remained
until he was taken sick last Decem-
Der. Until last Wednesday he and
William Il. Dean, now living in Tenth
street, and were the oldest members
Of the Typographical Society. MIR.
Dean, after serving as a journeyman,
became a publisher. Now be is blind
and out of BUSINESS. Mr.. Weed al
tended the funeral Of his old-iime
friend and was deeply moved.

1t is little queer that the main ar
gument Of Seymour's letter declining
the nomination to the GovernOrship of
New York should be not that the
Democratic party deserves to be trust
ed but that if it succeeds, it will be too
securely tethered to do any har1 :. He
informs the country that the success
Of the Democracy "will not ena Die it
to pass or repeal laws without the as
sent of it's opponents in the SeLate."
As q contemporary says, "this may
be sound argument, but it is singu-
lar lowering of Democratic claims"
We should say so!

Speaking Of the recent outrage in
Lancaster, Ohio where the ropes with
which some Republicans were hoist
ing nag staff were cut, causing the
pole to fall and kill three men, the
Sacramento Record says: at is DIM
cult to put oneself in the place Of men
who could be capable Of so atrocious
deed as this, and yet we suppose there
can Ike no doubt that they we're led to
do it by partisan luminosity. 1t is i'm
possible to acQuit them of all knowl-
edge Of the probable result Of their
treacherous trick, and fair presump-
ton that they took all the chances,
and actually did not care how many
of their political opponents were killed
and manned. But it is hardly neces-
sary to point out that those who would
perpetrate an atrocity of this kind to
crafty political malice can by no pos
sibility be other than ruffians and
scoundrels. No good citizen or hon
orable man turns an assassin or
rowdy when he transacts politics, and
those who display such qualities only
carry out in that business the habits
and tendencies which characterize
them in all tho pursuits Of life. So
certainly true is this that if the perpe-
traitors of the Lancaster outrage could
be identified, they might be hanged
summarily without mourning the
least danger that the lives of useful
citizens were being terminated by
strangulation."

CHIEF OF PoLycE ELLIS of San Fran
cisco has been lecturing the members OF
his force and advising them to preserve
"a military bearing and an officer like
de,neanor. The free and untrammeled
cops grin and laugh in their sleeve and
think it is all very fudgy to follow their
Chiefs advice. Meantime the hoodlums
don't care penny for the slouchy pa
trolmen. They curse 'em and boot at
'em and invite 'em to 60 to the eternal
tropics: and the Stock Exchange caps
the climax of their woes by reading them
a very timely lesson as follows:
1t is high time that the San Francisco
police force shake off that apathy and
slovenliness which have chung to them so
long, and assume more officer like and
dienified demesnor. Dignity inspires
respect: and resolution and unceasing
vigilance will soon intimidate the hood
ium element. and intimidation with the
hoodlum is half the battle. As soon as
the hoodlum finds that in defying the
police he is not Drawing a street lounger
but a resolute official. he will lose that
audacity which has hitherto been his
characteristic. and will learn to respect
the force. Chief Ellis is right, and those
of the force who despise his suggestion,
wrong.

Some weeks since the APPEAL VEN
tured the opinion that one cause OF the
prevailing hard times was the supera-
bundance of machinery,-the too gen,
era! diffusion of labor-saving appara-
tus. We advanced the idea that the
value of hand labor had been disas-
trously deprecated by steam machines
and machines Of various sorts; that
the means of supplying the necessary
manufactures, such as cloths, leather,
textile fabrics and all products of
skilled labor had come to surpass the
demand. We are supported in this
theory by the New Yo~k Herald. That
paper, commenting upon recent adj
dress by Mr.. David A. Wells at Sara
toga, and abiding to the fact that year
by year there is y falling of in farri
and stock yard products, remarks t. at
a large part of the population have
been drawn off to other employments
than those of the farm, the dairy and
the grazing field, to manufactures;
and adds: 1.-THE result is shown in the
increase OF manufactured products
fifty-two per cent in the period Of 1850
lS7O-with an increase OF population of
only twenty-three per cont. Not only
did more people 60 to manufacturing,
but their capacity to produce in this
direction was largely increased by new
and ingenious labor-saving machi-
nery. Thus in 1860 nine thousand
persons in Cincinnati engaged in man.
ufacturing produced ~ average value
of one thousand five hundred dollars
per head, but double the Admber in
1870, with the help of better machinery,
produced q value of two thousand
three hundred dollars per head. Three
men can now produce SO many stoves
as six in 1860. In dressing yarn one
man and boy now do the work which
eight men did in 1850. Sim ar results
have been obtained in a great many
branches of manufacture. Unskilful
legislation, the result Of ignorance and
carelessness in our rulers, has first
impelied more men to manufacturing
industries; our native inventive skill
has at the same time greatly increased
the productive power of these hands,
and then our laws have disabled us
from selling the largely increased sur
plus product abroad, where alone, of
course, q surplus can be sold"
