HARMONY AND ENTHUSIASM

The Democratic State Convention of New
York, which assembled at Syracuse on the
22nd, has aroused degree of enthusiasm
throughout the Empire State, which indi-
Gates brilliant and emphatic victory. The
harmony of sentiment which characterized
its deliberations, the graceful and spirited
manner in which the nominations were re-
ceived will have Il telling and nvigorating
effect throughout the country. The plat
form has the old Democratic ring; aggres-
sive in its character, il arraigns the Repub.
lican party for its crimes and corruptons as
follows:
THE majority in Congress for not reduc-
ing taxation; condemns the River and Har-
Dor Bill and federal interference in state
elections; regards the nomination of the
Secretary Of the Treasury for governor of
New York US an alarming spectacle and as
proof of the dangerous power of public pa
tronage; demands reform in the civil SER
vice and denOunces political assessments !;
holds the present administration response
Bile for the unredressed outragcs on foreign
born American citizens abroad; demands
the restoration of the New York State Ma
tionai Guard; the revision of laws relating
"a shipping, and the carriage of ocean
ireights and the publication of primary
elections; favors the adoption of measures
To restrict the growing power OF monopolies,
making labor free; condemns the competi-
ton Of convict labor with the industry of
iaw-abiding citizens; and finally avows the
the fidelity Of the Democratic party of New
York to Those tcnets Of economy, simplicity,
respect for the liberty of the individual
which characterized the administration Of
government in the primitive days of the
republic"
John Kelley, the chiefof Iammany, came
To the front with this additional plank, which
was adopted:
"Condemning the distribution of public
lands 10 private corporations. These i'm
mense grants to corporations had been
given away by the Republican party. The
Democratic party has declared that these
lands should be held for the people, SO that
every man could settle upon them. Seven
hundred and twenty-six million acres of land
have been given by the national government
10 railway corporations. These lands have
bccn and are held by these corporations. They
have gone on the market in this country
and Europe, and have enriched individuals
These grants were made under Republi.
can administration, and II is the duty Of the
Democratic party "a declare, here in the
largest State in the Union, that the public
lands shall be held for the poor people of
the country 10 settle upon"
With the Democratic party so thoroughly
harmonious, and with such terrible bill OF
indictment, we can but anticipate that the
State OF New York will once more enroll her
name upon the Democratic roll of honor.
Indeed our former defeats in this State have
grown out OF the distraction in our ranks,
this 50 thoroughly corrected aud healed we
have no fears Of the result

Fire and Wreck.

Water, it appears, is more hostile to
man and his work than fire. The
British Wreck Register" for the last
year, just published, reveals the
astounding fact that there are from
fifteen to twenty vessels wrecked
every day throughout the world.
The number of vessels wrecked on
the British coast last year was 5000 !;
which was a decided decrease from
the average of the last few years.
Two years ago the number was 4164.
We should remember, however,
that Great Britain has now about
800, 900 vessels atioat, manned by nearly
four millions of persons. That is to
say, ABOUT four millions of humaa
beings are at all times afoat upon salt
water in vessels bearing the British
flag. The wreck statistics show that,
during the last twenty-five years, the
whole number OF wrecks near British
shores is 49, 1872, causing the death of
1o,oIJ poIsouS.
The facts published by the Wreck
Register" justify the conclusion that
one-half of these disasters might have
been prevented. For one item, there
were 701 collisions near the British
coasts last year; for another, four
hundred vessels are still in use which
are more than thirty years old. On
the other hand, it is reported that the
British Life. Saving Service rescued
last year 1902 persons from wrecked
vessels. The waste from this wreck
age in mere property is very great
but the waste from anxiety and terror
Is beyond computation.

one of the three souls of a renowned
Mongolian visited the moon and found
the inhabitants diverting themselves

his return to earth he established the

still celebrated on September 25th,

SATURDAY, November II, 1882,
What Does It Mean !?

Well, it is over.
The big bosses have fought
among themselves, the little bosses
have fought the big bosses, the
Independent voter the high
moral Republican, and the heelers
and strikers and buns have all
worked in concert and-smashed
things.
It was more than tidal wave
1t was deluge.
And what does it mean That
the people were tired of the ascen-
dency Of the Republican party :?
After fashion, yes. Tired of
that phase of it which has been
not inaptly termed "Bossochraly,"
and the disgruntled Office seekers,
and the would-be leaders, and the
rif-raff, and the rabble saw the ris-
ing tide of Independent indigna-
ton, and inspired by greed, or
hate, or revenge, rode upon the
crest Of the wave and helped
strike down the representatives of
the ruling party.
Well, the power of the Came
rons and Conklings and Robesons
is gone. Republican boss rule is
a thing of the past. 1t has been
relegated to back seat and the
people have invited John Kelly
and Lew Cassidy and Ben Butler
to the front pews of honor and
power.
And are they any better off?
VIII they get better, cheaper and
more honest legislation ? Will
the cause of Civil Service Reform
be advanced, American industries
better protected, and American
politics purified and reformed?
Maybe.
The great American voter has
smashed things. He has brought
about his periodical change. Let
US hope that it will inure to his
benefit and not simply result in
the strengthening and fattening
of another and more obnoxious
set of bosses.

The Woman Who Rules rus
STA.

Nine. Pobedonost zeff, the leading
spirit Of the Russian Government
to-day, is the chief Procureur of the
Holy Synod and the most confidential
counselor of the Gear. She is young,
beautiful and ambitious. She married
Mr.. Pobedonostzef but few years ago.
Her husband, a very old gentleman,
is in love with her. 1t is said of him
that the knightly motto, "God and
My Lady" he changed into "God
and My Wife," and upholds it as de
voutly as knight of old. He rises
early, and prays to God, adores his
wife, and then goes to see the Gar, OF
the Ministers, or the Holy Synod, and
everywhere he tries his best to carry
out the commands of his goddess.
Meanwhile she herself is not idle.
She receives hosts of fair visitors of
high rank who, while offering their
homage, seize the chance of commend.

lister of State does himself the honor

cage. And the Gar himselfis there
always at hand. Thus it has come
about that, while the Gar keeps away
from the capital of his Empire, Nine
Pobedonostzeff has somehow found
herself to be the center of the Russian
political world. Instead of the Czar's
policy, or the Chancellor's or the
Minister'S policy. we hear of the
Madame's policy. With the modesty
of an ascending star she does not re-
veal her projects, but it is very doubt
full whether any liberal reforms will
find favor with her.

A Climbing Fe at.

A successful ascent of the Dent du
Gesnt by an Alpine tourist, an italian
named Sella, has Just been made. So
many attempts to climb this colossal
and practically perpendicular obelisk
had failed that it was regarded as in
accessible. The pick of the guides
Swiss, French and Itaiian-met with
no better success than simple tourists.
Some years ago an English nobleman
attempted to throw cord weighted at
one end over the summit, but the
wind was too much for him, and the
rope was blown back into the hands
of the person throwing IL. A futter
of excitement ran through the hotels
of Chamounix and Courmayeur when
it became known that young Italian
had scaled the peak. The means by
which he was enabled to perform so
remarkable feat proved to have been
simple enough. For several weeks
past two guides had been occupied in
cutting steps in the most slippery and
least accessible places. in fixing hooks
and staples, and attaching ropes to
them. When these preparations were
completed the ascent proper took place
but it was not accomplished without
much difficulty and danger. No sooner
was the news known at Chamounix
than an Englishman started to make
the ascent also. He succeeded.
