WILL THE DEMogRATs REs1sT1

c1A&e VI NH1CA&Q resemble TUG OemQcfht3
throughout tho country, but' We presume
that the average Democrat is pretty much
the samo everywhere. If we ore right In
this, then wc cannot but regard It as danger
Gus that, at this stage Of the proceedings
in the Presidential Commission, tho local
managers Of the Democratic party should
begin to agitate resistance to tho verdict in
case 1t shall provo 10 be against them. At
their meeting Saturday resolution waa in
troduced donouncing the Commission as par
tisan, md advising the Democratic Senators
and Representatives to withdraw from it.
It is only fair TO soy That tho resolution was
tabled, but not until after large number Of
those present hnd heartily indorsed it,-ono
HooTTN again roriving tho "wah talk in
tho noat violent manner. The inference is
inevitable, therefore, that q large proportion
of the Democrats, smiling defeat ahead, arc
in favor Of organizing resistance to my con-
cl,lston that shall not award tho Presidency
to TnnEN and tho offices to his re.ainerB.
In ono respect, this disposition nmong the
Democrats is infamous; in another, short
aighted and foolharay. It is infamous that
SOLEMN consract, in<lorscd by the great mn
jority Of tbs representatives of both parties
in Congress, and equnlly binding upon both,
should be repudiated by ono faction ut tho
first sign that 1t may result to their disadvan-
tage. 1t is plain that either Dir. T11Dxs or
Iii. HAYES must suffer dcfoat, and MI agrco-
ment to arbitrate was m agreement to abide
by the result. Jfir. HAYES is awarded tho
Presidency, 1t will DO because minority Of
tho Commission believe linn entitled to It
under tho law, and the Democrats aro bound
In MI honor aud good faith to accept tho
verdict pcaceabfy. It Ia outrageous then,
before tho votes Of hall dozen States
havo been counted, to tcnounoe tho
tribunal aa partisan md unfair, mud call
upon the Democratic party to break the COM
pact into which 1t entered along with It's
opponents In order to assure peace aud quiet
to the country. but thero is another consid-
cration which tho Democrats ignore. Tho
issue ID by no neans settled yet. Tho nc-
publtcans havo gained point In tho decision
about tho Florida case, but Louisana and
Oregon are still to be passed upon. It is
not impossible that the ruling ,nay bo
against the Republicans in ono OF these two
cases; this would givo the vortliot to tho
Democrata but ii, In the meantime, tho
Democrats shall have set tho precedent for
deuouucing tho Commission aud declared

mittee decided that the Democratic coll

The naming Of Albany is considered a
victory for the old ticket men, or those
who favor the denomination of present

was triumph for the new ticket men.

The New York Sun admits that the
prospect Of the Democrats cvrrying New
York at the next election is not so flat
tering as the average Democrat thinks
1t is. 1t warns the leaders that the party
cannot stand internal divisions. AS the
Republicans had a majority of 10000 last
fall in that portion of the state outside of
New York and Brooklyn. and as internal
divisions would tell heavily on the city,
the Democratic prospect is not altogether
cheerful.

DETAILS concerning the collision OF
the ships Avalanche and Forest show
that it took place at 9:15 Tuesday night,
September IL. dozen miles southwest
of Portland. The ships were beating
down the channel on opposite tacks. The
Forest struck the Avalanche amidships,
rebOunded and struck her twice further
att, causing her to founder in about
three minutes from the first striking.
There was no time to launch the boats.
The night was so dark that it was almost
impossible to discern the mass of human
beings struggling in the water below,
but the survivors say they shall never
forget the scene. The sea must have
been literally alive with human beings,
to whose cries for help there could not
be any response. There was steady
drizzle, with occasional driving gusts of
rain. The wind was strong and the sea
very high. The cries Were heard by the
crew of the Forest. but they were unable
to give any assistance. The Forest was
very leaky, the water gaining so fast that
the crew had to abandon her. Three
boats were launched, and in these the
whole crew of the Forest, as Capt. Lock
hart supposed with three men belonging
to the Avalanche took. places. Itappears,
however, that in the hurry and excite
ment of the moment some of the crew
were left. for the captain in his boat OBJ
served the signal lights burning at that
time. However, rescue was hopeless,
and the poor fellows had to be left to
their fate, the wind and sea being so
rough that the men thought their boat
would be swamped every minute. Up-
fortunately in the case of two of these
boats there is too much reason for be-
lieying that these tears have been real
lied.

When proposition was made some time
sago for the South to send representative to
Europe to interest European capitalists in
Southern Investments, the DEMOCRAT Joined
heartily In it, and suggested Senator Gordon,
Of Georgia, as the man for this mission. Gen.
Gordon is representative Southern man,
identified with Southern interests, and repre-
senss one OF the most prosperous Southern
Gtates. We are glad to see that other South
Urn papers have adopted the suggestion OF
the DEMOCRAT, and are warmly indorsing
our nomination The Augusta Constitution
mist for instance, calls on the merchants and
business men Of that town, one of the manu-
featuring centres of the South to act and to
make their influence felt In this matter and
III those papers that have discussed the
DEMOCRATS suggestion have adopted it. If
the Southern press will exert its influence we
shall undoubtedly have this mission, and
through 1t obtain sufficient capital from Eu-
rope to build up our waste places and estab-
Iish new Industries throughout the South.

Congress has now before 1t half dozen

Mongoliar1 will have to leave anyhow; the
pressure Is too great for them to remain.
1t 1s possible, however, that the people of
California will repent theioss Of the Chinese
when they are gone, for in their place they
are getting a very unreliable class Of labor
The white emigrants to California are not the
bone and sinew Of the land, farmers and pro-
ducers such as Texas gets. The way In which
land Is held in California precludes this. In
Texas there Is an immense public domain and
cheap land In abundance. In California all the
land Is held by some hundred millionaires
and capitalists who refuse to part with 1t to
the immigrants.
The immigrants who go to California are
broken down clerks, briefless lawyers who

These newcomers are certainly not as valua-

Chinese immigration is rapidly falling off
in California. The weekly deficit of China
men in that State is 3OO-that is, 800 more
Cinnamon leave the country each week than
enter it. At this rate three years will suffice
to get rid of all the celestials of the Pacific
slope. At the request of the people of Cali
fornia, of both political parties, commits
sion visited that State last fall to inquire into
the Chinese question and to free California,
it was well understood, from this Mongolian
bugbear The commission leaned strongly
against the Chinese, principally from politi-
cal motives. No party in California could
carry the Chinese, and any person who
showed them any kindness was politically
damned. The commission, however, were
compelled to see certain facts that they could
not avoid seeing. 'It is by the Chinese, they
now report, "that the resources Of California
and the Pacific slope have been developed.
1t cannot be doubted that the Pacific slope is
a great gamer by them"
There were other similar facts the commits
sion developed. The charge Of immortality
and dissoluteness against the Chinese women
were disproved to a great extent; the quiet
ness ana dOclHCy OF Cne Cninameu were
shown beyond dispute. Nor did the China
man come to this country beggar, as had
been said, but generally brought with him
some money. And lastly, John Chinaman
was one Of the heaviest taxpayers in the
State, paying 100000 every year as a poll
tax, and S., 600 900 as customs duties.
In addition to these and the State and city
