The st. Louis Republican says: ''Mr.
Hayes might have saved his party some
of the curse he bequeathed to them in
hisIveto of the per cent. refunding bill,
If he had made his veto rest on the COM
mon sense grounds that were open to
him. He made a sorry mess of it, how
ever, when he vetoed the bill because of
its alleged animOsitY to the national
banks. There was nothing grievously
harsh on the banks, and the more the
things he objected to are discussed, the
more people will understand how mex
cusable it is to call these exactions IN
fair. The national banks are very COED
things in their way, but they cannot
hope to be exempt from reasonable and
proper legislation"

History Repeating ItseIf-JacObin-
Ism In q New Form

Editor M0rning Netos:: Moral diseases
are apparently sporadic and epidemic, as
are those assailing the physical system.
Yellow fever, cholera, plague, ETC., have
their periodicities with certain amount
of regularity permitting calculation, and
so it would seem hsYe also those moral
taints that corrupt domestic and political
society, in like cyclical orbits. Follow
ing out this idea, the world is at present
afflicted again with the ''Jacoblnism'
of 1889 that succeeded for a time
in denying God, establishing the cage
of Reason, trampling down the laws of
property and personal rights, and delug-
ing France wantonly with innocent
blood. The disease is known now under
the names of "Nihilism," Socialism"
or Communism, but the infiction is
the same as formerly styled Jacobinism,
or CiOleRt revolution. Whatever
our advances since 1899 in the
physical sciences, human nature is
unchanged, and the human tigers feroci-
ty which to day is plottif g revolutions
and assassinations is identical with that
which brought Louis XVI. to the guiilo-
tine. There are. no doubt, political Op-
pressions in nations that should not exist;
but the remedy for them is. not to be
found in goddess. aimless, destruction of
organized Christian society.
As the epidemic of "JacObinism" is
raging in Europe, threatening destruc-
ton of law and order, we may not hope
TO escape the poison in this country. We
have no privileged classes to be slaughter
ed but we have the rights of property, the
principles of sound Democratic republi-
canism. and public and private virtue, to be
ruined by butchers of rights and morals.
Hence, as a disinfectant, true Demo
Gratis should denounce Socialislic
and Communistic demonstrations in this
country approving the recent assassina-
ton of the Gar of Russia. We cannot
legally prevent them, perhaps, if the
peace of society is not broken, but we
can apply the antidote of ''pure Democ-
raey, the universal panacea for political
evils. and crush with just condemnation
any attempts here TO dethrone God and
His civilization in the world
DEMOCRAT OF THE OLD SCHOOL.

Encouraging Growth of Our silk


We now have the census returns of
silk manufactures in the United States
given in the preliminary report made by
Mr.. William G. Wyckof, the special
agent. The exhibit shows bright
prosperity in this department of indus
trial activity, while comparison with
the census figures of 1870 reveals a rise
in the American silk industry, which is
as striking as it is gratifying. In 1870
the value of all products of silk estab.
lishments in the United States was $12,-
600. 900. In 1880 finished goods to the
amount of $34, 600. 900 were produced,
while the gross value of all products
was $41 100000. During this period
the capital invested in the business was
increased from St. 600, 900 to $19, 600, 900,
and the value of materials used in year
from less than s., 900, 900 to more than
$22. 100000
These figures show that the industry
has trebled in ten years. The enlarge
ment of productive capacity seems to
have been even greater. Since 1870 the
factories have increased in number from
Sc to 383, looms from 1900 to 5000,
hands employed from 5000 to 81 300,
and the amount of wages paid during
the year from g, 900, 900 to $1,000, 900.
Another noticeable feature of the report
just issued is that several States which
did not appear in the returns of 1870 are
now represented as having silk factories.
These are Name, Rhode Island, Califor-
MIA, Illinois, Kansas and Missouri. But
while silk is manufactured in fifteen
States the industry is as yet practically
confined to New Jersey (where its great
est development has taken place., New
York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and
Pennsylvania.
To enable this country to successfully
compete with France in the production
of silk goods of every kind it is only ne
cessary that the raw silk which is now
imported from foreign countries should
be grown by our own people. No Sec
ton is better adapted to the growth of
the na0rus multicaults and the production
of the silk cocoon than Georgia, and we
have not doubt but that if our people,
especially in the seaboard section Of the
State, were to go into the raising of raw
silk it would in very short time prove
as profitable, if not more profitable, than
any other crop. The experiment
might be made at a very small
expense, as the mulberry grows sponta-
neous IN our wornout fields, and the
class of labor required in the care of
the silk worm and the gathering of its
food is such as would not be missed
from the cotton or corn field. Women
and children are capable of performing
all the labor in silk cocoonery, and it
would be an easy matter for every
farmers family to carry on an expert
mental cocoonery, the product of which
would find ready sale at remunerative
prices. Our agricultural fairs should en-
courage the silk culture, and their first
steps should be to disseminate among
the people all necessary information on
the subject.

There is one Republican paper that is
honest enough not to be much carried
away over Malone. The Philadelphia
American says it cannot congratulate
the Republican party on the accession of
Mr.. Malone to its ranks" It says he is
welcomed by men who are more anx-
ious about the success than the good
name of the party" 1t does not fancy
Mahone's repudiating principles, and
says his famous manifesto which MIR.
Johnston, of his own State, so COM
pletely exposed and discredited, was
planned at a conf erence with Republi-
can politicians, and was to be prelimi-
nary to his reception into the party" It
seems to think Mr.. Garfield will not take
much stock in Malone. So it is to be
hoped. But we shall see.

Pearson, who has just been appointed
Postmaster IN New York, vice James,
has been working in that Office since 1860,
and fully understands all its business. 1t
is said that the reforms in that Office, for
which James got credit, are due entirely
to him. Mr.. Pearson had the sympathy
of the entire business community of New

hardly deserving to be called enthusi-

Gates that the chances are rather more
desperate than otherwise. At first the

LONDON, May 25.-Last evening at 6
o'clock the steamer Victoria, with over 600
excursionists on board, who we're return

Coverall Way Bridge, n mile below the
city, the boat suddenly collapsed like an
egg shell and became a total wreck level
with the waters edge. All the passengers
were instantly plunged into the stream,
more than half Of them being underneath
the debris. The first news which reached
this city was brought by the survivors,
who struggled through the streets wet and
weary. The news fell like a thunderbolt,
and q stampede took place for the spot.
Arriving there a horrible sight met the
view. From so to 60 dead bodies had al
ready been recovered and were lying on
the greensward some distance up the banks.
Those arriving from the city in every di-
rection crowded around, anxious to see il
any Of their relatives we're on board,

some victim was brought to the surface
and conveyed to q boat. The steamer
