THE WILMINGTON RIOT.

The evidence is accumulative that the
serious riot that occurred in Wilmington,
on Saturday night last, was melted by
Democratic roughs of that city, and that
it did not originate i'll an attack on Il
Democratic procession by armed colored
men, as was at first reported. We can
readily understand why the Democracy
of Wilmington seek to fasten the odium
of the riot upon the colored men. The
drift of sentiment in Delaware is against
the Democrats. Wilmington has been
redeemed, and New Castle county is Re-
publican. If the prejudice of race can
be excited, Democracy may be benefited
This attempt to work up a local reaction
in the shape of an outrage perpetrated
upon white men by the blacks is a failure,
because the facts are just the other way.

can be collected that it was general re-

clubs, on the day preceding the riot, that
they intended to ''clean out Ninth and
Walnut " that night. "We'll give the
niggers IL" was a favorite expression.
1t is in evidence also. that number Of
the members of the clubs did not turn
out because there was going to be a dis

it. There is abundant evidence also that

1t is peculiarly unfortunate for Han
cock, that this confession of ignorance as
to the Tariff is made at time when he
is opposed by such man as Garfield,
whose record on the Tariff question, for
seventeen years, has been the most con-
sistent ever made by any man in Con-
gress and whose frequent discussions of
it on the floor of the House and conceded
mastery of it, in the Committee of Ways
and Means, prove his superiority to any
other American statesman. living or dead
in qualification for practical dealing with
the Tariff
Over against Hancock's poor, weak,
ignorant and confused twaddle on the
tariff, put any one of the hundreds of Gar
fields clear-cut, profound, statesmanlike
utterances. Such, for instance, as this
passage from speech he made in the
House on the 4th of June. 1873:

been warped by narrow and sectional con-
siderations. But when we base our ac-

to make this admission:
The Republicans narrowly escaped
disintegration and an utter rout after
Maine, and the Democrats may fail to
rally from the Indiana defeat. If so, the
Republican sweep will not be confined to
the North. Virginia would speedily share
a Democratic panic and tumble headlong
into the Garfield column as soon as it
shall be apparent that Garfield does not
need her vote, and Florida would be Ger

paign, the next week, as to convince the
more sensible Southern States that policy
and self-interest should urge them to
range them selves on the side of an in
vincible party, which is certain to rule
with or without their help. Republicans
never had such stimulus to the utmost
exertion.

who desire continuation of present

business men of the natien-a voice to

against a change from Republican to
Democratic administration of the govern

THE New York Herald has caught the
full force of the strong westerly winds.

men in the North are inspirited. Govern

with wonderful alacrity. And the ancient
Northern copperheads," who had been
basking in the sunlight, have gone back
