HARMONY" Is WELL; BUT RE-
FORM AND JUSTICE ARE BETTER
Referring to the five young Democrats
who forced a compromise, and a reform
in the Baltimore City government, the
Sun says -
1.-The friends of reform in matters of
municipal administration will doubtless
congratulate themselves on the fact
that the keynote of this harmony is,
by reason of their efforts, decidedly
higher than it would have been had
they been willing to content themselves
with that inferior sort 80 easy to obtain
by conceding toward bosses and mana
gers the success and perpetuati n of
their various self-seeking schemes.
Hitherto, for a number of years. there
has been admirable concord among the
benefciories IF corruption. Discord
they hold in special detestation. Hav-
ing captured city conventions, and die
tated the selection of judges and clerks
for the primaries. they found it easy to
stuff the ballot-boxes in the interest of
the nomination of their creatures. The
result was that the obedient tools Of a
half dozen politicians could at any time
be nominated to any office. Their can
didates once nominated, through an
abuse of the regular party machinery,
party loyalty was ,nrok.d for their cleo
tion. That the nominations were a
trife bad would be cheerfully conceded.
but. borrowing Tweed's famous query,
the local boss would ask: Well, what
aie you going to do about it? Will
you permit the republicans to regain
control of the city government? Thus
opposition was silenced. and Harmony
was secured. Such harmony has, hoo-
erer, prorem to be rery expensive and er-
tremeiy dangerous, as lukenarmness of
roters and loss of roters md loss of roting
strength and party pride hare make plain
iy erident.

A Brutal and Cowardiy Mob.

For the credit of humanity and
Southern manliness, We hope that the
story which comes from Chattanooga.
Tenn , may be disrroved. 1t appears
that a man named Corners. who had
been visiting a sister in Kentucky, was
forced to lie over night at a place called
Glen Mary, in the mining region, await
ing the morning train He went into
the hotel b%ar-roolu, and found a scuff1e
IA progress. during which his hat was
Knocked of and trampled. He natural
ly grew irrita!ed and showed his vexa-
ton w~hereupon the drunken crowd
became insulting. He walked out of
the room but was followed by two or
three men, daring him to fight. A fell
low named Duer threatened to hlOw out
his brains, and made a feint of drawing
a pistol. Corners instantly killed Duer;
and desperately wounded his brother-in-
law, Heaps, who had attacked Corners
with rocks. When Heaps fell a third
man attacked Corners, and peat him
we the head with rocks. Corners
fled. but was captured and put in a box
car in charge of the clerk of the court.
Il. HURT. Several attempts to kill
Corners were made during the evening,
but he bravely defended himself until
dark, at which time HURT (the coward y
abandoned him to his fate. A raging,
howling, drunken mob were now around
the car, and Corners saw that he must
die. He detied the gang to the last,
saying if they would only give HIM
some sor of weapon he would yet sell
his life dearly. Finally he sprang out,
unarmed as he was, and was riddled
with bullets. 1t is said the majority OF
the mob were negroes but this may be
questioned.
pH-No arrests, at last account!

because il is an advertisement, but be-
cause we deem il simple justice TO give
the gentlemen concerned an opportunl-
" TO explain their case 10 their consult
uents; particularly as they were denied
such all hearing through the Party
Oruau," and further because their con-
.luct has been made the text for a tele-

they are termed in the despatch. are
Young Democrats of character. promi-
nent in business. and sufficiently fDpu-

take interest in city politics. and have
no cause to favor either side neither
side subscribing or advertising with US.
Nevertheless, we learned TO dctest
Returning Board methods a good
while ago: and without caring a dried
apple for the motires OF the contestIng
elements. we are bound to look with
regret and disapproval upon the sum
mary manner in which the five Republ-
a n were ..Railroaded'' out of Office
in open violation of the very same prin-
cipl, upon which the Democrats held
the State convention which ramed our
present Constitution, and which pilncl-
pie was re-afirmed in the case of Capt.
A. H. A. Williams during the late ses-
sion of the Legislature. Capt. Williams
was permitted to vote on the question
OF his retention rs a member OF the
House, and held his seat, with the sane
ton of the Democratic party, iron
Governor up; yet the five Republican
Aldermen OF Raleigh were denied a
vote on the question of their W eX-
pulsion /; although they had been regu-
larly elected, almost without Oppose
ton, had been regularly sworn in, and
iad previously performed tie functions
of Aldermen. IL may be that they
were ineligible, but in any case the time
TO object was when they were sworn in
and the facts must have been as well
known to Mr.. City Attorney Busbee
then as now. We sincerely believe that
the affair will one day turn out to the
annoyance and discontinue Of the
Democratic party perhaps in the whole
State.
But here is the card of the protesting
Democratic Aldermen
