ChaImers Offensive to Northern Repub.
IIeRna.

st. Paul Pioneer Press
The offensive, narrow-minded machine
politicians who assume the duty Of running
the party, are doing their hes: to discredit
and defeat it. Some time ago we observed,
anent the matter OF political assessments,
that the Republican Congressional Commit
tee was losing the party more votes By that
proceeding than could be gained by the dis
tribution of innumerable campaign docu-
ments. The committee has now proceeded
several steps further in its work of defeating
the party. 1t has assumed the right 70 de-
eide between different candidates as TO regu-
larity; and might just as well throw the
whole weight of its influence ON one side or
the other of the Nelson-Kindred fight as 10
interfere in other States, as it has already
done. Far worse than this, it has taken the
responsibility of adopting so-called "inde-
pendent candidates as It's owe, without refer
ence to their party connections or their
public record; but with the secret
hope or understanding that they will vote
with the Republicars in the next Congress.
The most offensive case of this is the adop-
ton of the candidacy of Chalmers Chalmers
needs no introduction to Northern readers
He is an unpriucipled Bourbon, without
saving grace about him. He secured GER
tlhcae OF election to the last Congress by in
timidation and fraud. Being unseated, he
came out as an Independent candidate purely
out oil revenge, because the Democrats de-
clined to hlibuster in his behalf. And this
man, for whom no epithet a little time ago
was too vile, is selected by the Congressional
Committee as one of those to secure whose
election the money wrung from Federal
employees may properly be expended. 1t
is high time for a rebellion by the
Republican masses against the party
leaders, who, without one point of sympathy
with them, have fastened upon the organiza-
ton. The other members OF the Congress.
sional Committee throw the responsibility
upon the sub committee, to which executive
matters have been confined, but it can not
thus be shirked, The executive committee |
is responsible TO the full committee, aud it to |
the Republicans of Congress, and they TO |
the party in the country at large. Unless |
they are made TO feel that the people loathe |
and detest the scheme of running the party |
with renegade votes, bought over from the |
worst element of the Democracy with the
lees Of extortion, they will sink with their
dead weight The organization whose honora-
Die name they are unworthy to bear. Ii all
he Hubbellite and Gorhamite crew are to be
allowed 10 bring party disaster, with their
political contributions, and their helping
one Republican against another, snd their
iickeriDg with the cast-off csmp-followers of
he Democracy, it shall not be for lack of

what South Carolina Democrats Have
Done for the Schools.

The Charleston Netus and Courier says that
in the campaign OF 1875 the Democracy
promised the people of the State 20 give
Them more schools and better schools, and
the public records shoy how HANDSOMELY the
promise has been fulfilled. For instance,
during seven years of Republican admins
tration ending in 1877, the average amount
of the fund available for the public schools
was Sl98, l2S. During the six years that the
Democrate kaye been in power the school
fund has averaged SSzs, 427 year. The
Democrats have spent over $4,000 year
more for public schools than was spent by
the Radicals. Year by year the school fund
has increased and the reports for the fiscal
year 1881, Just made TO the comptroller-ger
ersI, show that the school fund Of the year
was S452, 965, the largest amount OF money
ever devoted in South Carolina TO the public
--essa!. Al ana year.--------.
There has been a noteworthy Increase in
the attendance at the schools under Demo-
cratic rule. The number OF white pupils has
increased. from 49, 4f in 1877 to 1899 in
1882, and the attendance of colored pupils
has increased. in the same period from
81, 652 to SO,575. The total attendance OF
white apd colored pupils is 1854 against
Io2;396, being total increase OF 1888.
- Tie plumber of teachers in the public
schools has increased from 26f4 in 1877 TO
34l3 in the present year. There are now
2126 white Teachers and 1887 colored
teachers, against 1z25 white teachers and
945 colored teacheFsin 1877. Put a pin in
there. The ruthless Rsd-shirt Democracy
of South Carolina pay for the rudimenta-y
education of 8O,5T5 colored children and
employ nearly 1900 colored teachers in the
public schools.
The number of schools has increased from
PASS in 1877 TO 3fS3 in 1882, being an in
crease of 700 schools. the average length
Of the session has been four months this
year, against three months in 1877.
Z Thisis most satisfactory exhibit and
one of which the Democracy haye right to
be proud. Sill more would haye been ac-
but for the Obligation TO dis
charge the school debt left by the Republi-
cans as legacy 10 their Democratic suc-
cessors. This debt amounted to S209,740,
and the whole of it has boen paid by the
Democrats,' vita tie exception of about
sS5, 900.

Miss AnnandaIe's Dose of Morphine.
CINCINNATI, November IA rumor pre-
vailed here extensively Monday that

that the story had its foundation in the fact
thai Miss Anandsle, the distinguished con-
iralto, had been taken suddenly i'll at the

had remained behind the rest OF the COM
pany, who. left for Louisville yesterday
