Tue Boston Globe has been investigating
the cost to the country OF the Fall River
strike, and arrives ut the rather startling
conclusion that the loss is not less than
one million dollars week. The data on
which this estimate is based are given.
The strikers are short something like one
hundred thousand dollars week in
wages; the mills suffer in profits fully two
hundred thousand dollars a week; the in
jury to their machinery, together with in
terest, insurance and taxes, is put at one
hundred thousand dollars more; the ad-
vance in cotton cloth saddles fully one
hundred thousand dollars week on the
country. Here is half million account
ed for. A like sum is Jumped from loss to
the cotton market, the failures which must
follow this trouble, the loss to taxpayers
in supporting paupers, the loss to dealers
in not being able to supply their orders
for goods, and, lastly, the loss to the tran
sportation companies. The GlObe's esti-
mate is considerably above the real loss,
hut it is beyond question that vast sum
is lost to operatives, employees and the
country generally every day the strike
continues. The most noticeable shortage
is that which comes to the strikers them
selves. They are OF the class that need
for their present comfort the money their
daily toll brings.

POLITICAL NOTES.


TuE Honorable Bilks" OF California
made no nominations for Representatives
in Congress.
TIE Ottumwa (Iowa) Valley Times has
abandoned the Greenbackers and run up
the Democratic flag.
TIE remains OF four Governors Of Ohio,
Messrs. TitEin, Macarthur, Worthington and
Allen rest in the cemetery at Chillicothe.
SENATOR BEcK is telling his friends in
Kentucky that the extra session defeated
Gen. Garfield for Speaker, and that this
alone was worth dozen extra sessions.
Mr.. Z. Moody BoYNToN is endeavoring
to persuade the Legislatures Of New Hamp.
shire and Massachusetts to unite in So
curing appropriations from Congress to
make the Merrimac River navigable.
CMAIRMAS HuHnELL, Of the Republican
Congressional Committee, expresses the
confident belief that Mr.. Foster will be
elected Governor Of Ohio. He says that
not only in Ohio but everywhere else, the
Republican party and all its committees
are as harmonious as can be.
Mn. HENRY CAREY BAIRD says that he
declined the Greenback nomination for
Treasurer Of Pennsylvania because he has
no political ambition, and because his bust
ness and other pursuits, including his
studies on political economy, give him all
the work that his strength is capable OF.
The Fredonia Censor notes that the ex-
Confederate Sergeant-at,Arms Of the
Senate removed the doubly1crippled Sid
ney l.. Wilson from his position on the
sixteenth anniversary OF the day on which
he lost his legs, while combating the same
element on the battle field.
THE Sacramento (Cal.) Union alleges
that the Democratic State Committee Is
not working in the interests OF the Demo-
cratic party, but in the interests OF the
Honorable Bilks," who in their platform
denounced and repudiated the Demo-
cratic party, and declared it corrupt and
undeserving Of confidence.
TIE Washington correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Enquirer says that the news
comes from Maine that there are quarrels
in the Greenback party, and that it is esti-
mated that Davis, the Republican candi-
date for Governor, will gain two or three
thousand votes by the attacks made upon
his soldierly qualities by the Democratic
newspapers.
ALEX. II. STEPHENS is in pretty good
health and mind, il We may credit the Au-
gusta (Ga.) Chronicle, which says: "Mr.
Stephens has not been in better health
for twenty years, and, while he may re-
greet that the President chose to disagree
with him, we know for certain he bears
toward that high functionary neither NAL
ice, bad temper, nor i'll will"

back fallacy," but in this matter he has
evidently miscalculated the adaptAbility
OF the MartinSburg statesman to the neces.
stiles Of the occasion.
The GovernorShip he Is disposed 10
consider within the reach Of Mr.. ]. N.
Camden, Of Parkersburg, provided that
gentleman will take the trouble TO put out
his hand and take It In, and the balance Of
the State offices he thinks will be filed by
their present incumbents. We hope we
may not be considered ungracious, how.
ever, in recalling attention to the fact that
the greatest efforts OF Mr. Camden's life
have resulted in defeats, and the perlls
which have heretofore overwhelmed him
have not been removed.
For Senator Hereiord's place, Gov.
Mathews Is set down as the coming man,
and the numerous Democratic candidates
for Congress In this district will note with
feelings otproiound depression and gloom
that Congressman Ben Wilson Is booked FOL
fourth nomination. In the Second district
the rule Of rotation is preserved and Con-
gresham Martin is shelved in favor Of Col,
Dan Lucas, while a similar movement ID
foreshadowed in the Third district in favor
Of some active individual who can beat
Walker sure.
These impressions and predictions are
at least interesting Ii they do not show
US what we are or what we may be, they
show US how we strike other people, and
what other people would like to have us
become. Meanwhile we can discount
them as much as may be necessary.

CHAMHoRD, the Bourbon pretender TO
the French throne, givesthis advice to his
adhorents: Let our ranks be open to
every man OF good will" 1t is said the
suggestion is understood TO be in the
nature Of an invitation to the clerical
BOnapartists to join the small but select
party Of legitimacy. The accessions to
the pretenders party in consequence Of
this invitation arc not likely TO be large.
In fact, the party seems to be about as
dead as the faction just deprived Of its
head by the Zulus. There was time,
early in the Presidency of Theirs, when,
il Chambord had possessed the requisite
courage and exhibited disposition to
yield something to the spirit OF the age,
he might have won the crown Of Charles
y. But to those who approached him he
insisted that he could accept no flag but
the drapeau blanc. He would have moth
ing to do with the tri.color-the symbol
of all the glory OF modern France; and,
moreover, il France wanted him, she must
call him. Like Macbeth, if Fate would
have king, Fate must crown him with
out his stir. Fate and France did not
want him SO much as he thought. and
since then he has sunk almost out OF the
circle OF possibilities. His cousins Of the
Orleans family arc equally Cowartlly, il
not equally imbeciIe, and there seems rs
little probability that Bourbon will ever
again occupy the throne of France as that
Plantagenet or Tudor will wear the
crown Of England. ' ~

TIE Question Of Highway Crossings
over railroads at grades Is getting to be a
serious one in many Of the suburban
towns about New York, and particular at
tention has been called to it Just now by
the killing Of a wealthy old gentleman by
train on the Harlem Road at Morrisania
one day last week. Punch once said that
It would be necessary to kill bishop in
order to call attention to some dangers Of
railroad travel, but in this case million

the papers are full Of letters and editorials
on tho subject and all sorts Of suggestions
are made for remedy. Within 10 miles
Of New York there are many towns and
large villages with u considerabletratRc on

The Railroad Gazette says: Coney Island
seems bound to become one OF the great
railroad centres" Of the country. Only
few years ago it was accessible only by
one railroad laid on the highways from
the outskirts Of Brooklyn, by horse.car
line, and by steamboats, to the western end
OF the island. An enormous increase OF
traffic followed the opening OF new and
faster road from Brooklyn. Then came
the Manhattan Beach road, which has vir.
tually three roads TO the island; then the
oldest road ran branch out upon pier,
which enabled it to take steamboat pas.

Brighton Beach road was opened then
from the centre OF Brooklyn. This year
one Of the roads built branch on the
island from the centre to the west end, to
connect with the steamboats, which here.

part OF the island. But this season a

that was built and II had no independent
connection with either Brooklyn or New
York, and was not worked at all in 1877
or 1878. This year some three miles have

The elections to-day, will have, som e
bearing on. the contest next year as out
lining how the great states viii vote at
that time. This being the case-in New
York, especially, where interest centres.
The effect upon the presidential contest in

year in which Democrat was returned
from New York TO the U. s. Senate-the
present incumbent Hon. Francis
Herman. IF the Republicans carry
New York to-day. and the victory
is complete and sweeping-eyen then
New York can be counted in the Demo
cratic columns for 1880, for it will not be
a Republican 7ictory-it will be simply q

ing elements in the Democratic party will
be organized under one banner-the
watchword will be the success OF the
Democracy. and thus united in New York
and in Ohio and other states, success will
crown our efforts. Democrats must now
begin the organization for 1880, and in the
great presidential contest then to occur,
victory will perch on the Democratic
banner, and peace and prosperity return

The Democratic party is the party of the
people. 1t is the only party that has lived
from the foundation of the Republic be-
cause founded on principles which embody
the very foundation on which our govern
ment rests. 1t will be the party of the
nation when all others have passed out OF
existence. Democracy will live as long as
the government exists-it will be para

gotten.

The currency question may possibly
form some part in the campaign, next
year, though il is hardly possible that it
will. There is nothing to be gained by
constant agitation of the financial question
business, interests can be best subserved
by allowing money matters to shape them
selves according 60 the demands of trade.
While. however, it is better to avoid con-
slant meddling with tho finances, it by mo
means follows that 10 hu Sherman should
be allowed TO defy the laws of congress and
run the treasury department in the inter-
est of private corporations to the detriment
of the public good. He must be taught
that there are certain rules which
must be followed. and that the
people are the ones directly Interested
not private corporations. John Sherman
as secretary of the streasury, has made
some grave mistakes. He opposed silver
yet experience proves that, without this
Democratic measure the policy of resump-
ton would have been failure. Now he
owns that the silver bill helped resump-
ton, but be aud his political friends are
very careful not to mention that it was a
Democratic congress that caused the re-
monetization. The people, however, are
not slow to place matters properly and
will not forget, though Sherman may, that
to the Democratic congress belongs the
credit of better times. better business
and the resumption. partial though it now
is, of specie payments.

The Republicans complain of solid
south. they denounce that section because
of its solidity, and yet these same republi
cans are doing everything possible to sec
tionalize the country by drawing line be-
tween north and south and os,racising the
one from the other. The party to-day
which is doing its best to create disrup-
ton of the Union is the Republican party,
which cries so Justify of its loyalty and yet
breaches disuDionism by urging the estab-
lishment of a barrier between the two sec
tions.

Greenbackism is dead beyond recovery.
10 attempt to keep alive that party means
simply to aid in the continuation of Re-
publican rule. Democrats cannot afford
to be longer duped by the republican
managers but must vote and act with the
Democratic party at all times and on all
occasions. In no other way can Demo
cracy succeed.
