THE New PARTY MovEMENT.-Comment
ing on the action Of the national labor
greenback party convention, at Syracuse,
New York, the New York Herald says:
"There is disposition in some quarters
to treat this greenback and labor move
ment with contempt and ridicule, but we
do not think it wise to do so. The Syra-
cuse men have certainly made platform
compounded of ignorance and wickedness :;
but ridicule and abuse will not help the
honest part of them to see this, and much
the greater number of the men who met in
the convention, and of the voters who mean
now to support this platform, are sincerely
honest people, who would not knowingly
do wrong or unpatriotic act. 1t is the
duty of the press and the public and of
public speakers to argue with them, to try
and convince them of their error, and not
to condemn them as parcel of rogues.
The leaders in this movement, here and in
other States, are doubtless either political
adventurers or ruined spectators, whose
aim is to use the general depression from
which the country is just recovering to i'm.
prove their personal and political fortunes.
But the mass of their followers are honest
people, and the movement gains the main
part Of its strength not from their belief in
the platforms adopted, but from the deep
and general, and, we must say, very just
dissatisfaction with both the old political
parties

An EXCITING SCENE AT CAPE MAYA
thrilling incident was witnessed on the
beach at Cape May Sunday afternoon. A
young man named McGarry was in the
surf, bathing, when he was suddenly car
ried out beyond his depth. The surfboat
was not out at the time, and some minutes
passed before the crew could be got to-
gether, Finally, however, they manned
the boat and struck out for the rescue.
The tide was so strong that the young man
loated down to Sea Grove before the boat
overlook him, having been in the water
over two hours. At the time there were
thousands of people on the beach anxiously
watching the struggling man in the wateI
and the efforts of the boat 10 reach him.
When he was finally drawn into the boat
alive shout of relief went up from those
who had witnessed the exciting spectacle
from the shore.

THE st. Michaels (Md.) Comet in an
editorial reviewing the efforts that have
been made by some Of our small politicians
to disparage him, concludes as follows:
"The Democracy of Delaware will do
themselves lasting dlscredit if they take
Mr.. Bayard from the Senate. Long con-
tinued service of an able man gives him a
power in the Senate and his State prestige
than mediocrity, however respectable, and
constant change of incumbent, can never
accomplish. Let us keep Bayard. The
council chambers of the country need him.
The old type Of craftsmanship is best illus.
trated by him. Honor, and honesty, and
probity, and principal find in Bayard of
Delaware their best representative; nay
more than this, their best. exponent. The
Republican party of Delaware may have a
better than Bayard or Bayard's equal; the
Democratic party has neither. Let us have
Bayard, if we are to have a Democratic
Senator from Delaware"

THE WILMINGToN PoLITICAL MACHINE was
put in gear on Saturday for months run,
at which time it will turn out a Mayor.
On that day the Republicans balloted for a
candidate, the vote resulted as follows:
c. II. Gallagher, 1887
John C. Patterson, S63
r. C. Fraim, SIT
Mr.. Gallagher is one of those irrepressible
men who is never so much at home as in a
big fight, and the very fact of his nomna-
ton indicates a warm campaign for the
Mayoralty. Strange to say he was the
choice as a Republican candidate of the
two Democratic papers, the Gazette and
Herald; but the preference may have grown
out of the fact that he was bitterly opposed
by the Eoery Evening. The Herald says:
" If we are to be afflicted with Repub-
lican Mayor, which we think highly i'm
probable, it is at least some consolation
that Captain Gallagher will be the man.
lie is a large-hearted and charitably dis.
posed citizen, who has never been known
to turn a deaf ear to the afflicted poor"
The Democrats will make their nomina.

State officers one-half for all above 81 900;
reform in public school education, and op-
posing the importation of servile Chinese
labor.
The PeninSuLar NeCs has espoused the
championship of the party in our State
and says:
1T has grown up spontaneously, at the
| the demand of the masses of the people,
| who are sick at heart of the rule of the
| demagogues with which the country is
afflicted. The farmers see that under the
| government of the great corporations, the
banks, the capitalists, and the cities, that
they are gradually being reduced topoverty,
and that the wealth of the country is con-
stantly concentrating in the great CONNER
cial cities so that the farming classes are
only as so many serfs, producing the bread
stutfs and provisions upon which the com
mercial, trading and transportation classes
trade out fortunes for themselves. The
manufacturing classes are almost precisely
in the same condition as the farmers
They can produce plenty of goods, and do
but all the profits of their production, like
that of the farmer, goes to transportation
companies, middle men, traders and specu
lators, until the producers themselves, like
the producer of grain and provisions, are
only the toilers off of whose labor the
trading and transporting classes acquire al
the profit"
The Ne,os further says that the Republi
can party is the capitalists party and it i
natural that workingman's party shoulC
rise up in antagonism to it. The Republi
cans and Democrats now stand POLITICAL.
on the same platform, and that if th
