The strike of the silk-ribbon weayers at Paterson,
n. D., was partly renewed yesterday, and for the
first time there appeared disposition the part
of the strikers TO moest those who preferred to
work. The lockout of the manufacturers was
ended aud 1t was announced that all the wcaveTs
for whom there were looms could have their former
places. At a meeting of disatected veayers it was
stated that financial assistance would be received
from the Central Labor Union Of New-JeTsey, and
it was resolved to maintain the strike and try TO
persuade the "weak kneed" " 10 stay out Of the
mills. Committees were appointed TO watch the
mills and to prevent weavers from returning to
work. considerable number, however, went to
work at the mills OF W llham Strange ~ TO: and
were so diSorderly and threatening toward the
scabsD that five of the leaders We're arrested. AT
Strauge's mill an angry crowd gathered and tine
situation was ominOus for time but the arrival of
the police prevented disturbance No violence
offered by any of the strikers. 1t Is understood
that they are "black-listing" those who are at
work. At Dexter Lambert d Co.'S mill few re-
turned to work Some Of the manufacturers profes

Gracefully Yielded.


The official count in New York gives the
thirty-six electoral votes OF that State to
Cleveland, and having secured PIG OF the
4Ol electoral votes Mr.. Cleveland viii be
the next President Of the United States.
The Inter-Ocesn did all that it could to
prevent the election Of Democratic Presi
dent and to secure the election Of q RePub,
lican. But BY the narrow margin OF l,lOy
vote the decision Of the people is against US,
and We submit 10 the inevitable without 8
muImur sgainst political ally or opponents.
We Rave never been slow to take up the
party flag, nor lsggard in urging its caus7r
nor eager TO phil it down under the threat
eniugs of defeat or disaster. We have Il.
this campaign stood by our guns to thu
last, and we contend now that the party Is
in good shape for whatever it may be called
upon in the future to perform.
After ANY great battle criticisms Of com
msnders and Of msneuvers rarely come
from the men who have done the fighting.
The growing and grumOing is generally
done by the camp followers, and in this
case the work Of fault. finding and crimina.
ton may be left to the same class. The
Inter-Ocean will have none of it. 1t has
been a good fight and We are glad that we
are in the midst Of it. y
We have eRdeavored in the last two
weeks to be conservative without being
cowsrily, cautious without being timid,
and true to the party without raising false
hopes We refused to accept the dictum Of
those who through menace attempted to
close the case in New York against the Re
publicans, because we believed that in so
close a vote the official figures only could
determine who was elected. We have the
official figures, and We yield without one
word Of resentment or Of bitterness.

THE orHEK HALF OF THE WORLD.

There are many queer ways of making .
living, but the Washington professor who
teaches the art ofmenory is entitled 70
special mention. This professor accom-
pishes apparently wOnderfal results. In a
few lessons he enables his pupils to memoir
ize the most difficult things without any ef
fort. His system is similar to others which
have been in use for centuries. ASsocla-
ton Of ideas is the principle at the bottom
of il, and it is based upon the alphabet and
numbers. Lawyers preachers, students and
clerks preparing fora civil service exAmin-
ation. flock totbe professor to have their
memories braced up A twelve year old
boy after learning the system went to hear
Beeche- aud Cook lecture and s4er~Srd re-
uested the lectures almost verbatim without
having taken q note. Several pupils after
hearing long poems read two or three
times repeated them backward and forward.
Il is to be regretted that any artificial sys-
tenn of memory should now be received with
much favor. All such systemin the end IN
iure the brain power of those who rely upon
them. There is q natural method Of in-
creasiDg the power Of memory, and it can
injure no one. II is to cultivate the habit
of attention II We keep both mind and
body in the average state Of vigOr By proper
diet, exercise and rest, any psrsoE may
acquire the habit of concentrating his whole
attention upon anything he reads, hears or
sees, and the matter thus acquired viii be
Retained. If we discuss, relate or write
down suecinetly and forcibly the matters
we desire to remember they VIII stand By
US, or stick" But we should not despair
because many things escape Onr memory.
p, A healthy mind will involuntarily throw of
some things as being too trivial to be re
tanned. This is better than overlooking
the memory with thousands of useless and
unimportant facts and details.

appeal:
This is o ratification irrespective of party,

land as in the hands of q Republican Pres.

Fellow Democrats We hare assembled
to give expression e the joy that flis our
hearts at the result OF Asslnse electson.
We have not assembled Mere to insult our
political opponents; but in an orderly and
deecrous manner to rejoice oser an event
that we firmly believe viii benefit them as
wen as ourselves. For years we have
argued that q change in our Federal ad-
pinistraion was necessary in order to pre-
serve the integrity uf the Constitution, the
principles Of liberty and good government
andyo reform abuses that the long contin-
euance in power of one party had manitestly
engendered. We argued that 1t would
benefit the whole people to makes change.
and to make il without further delay, and
what we argued we firmly believed; and so
believing, we hail the victory OF last week
as q civil, peacesble and constitutional
triumph, whose benefcent effect all men
may hive to see, If not to admit.
EelIow-eiizens. the victory we have met
to commemorate establishes some points OF
the highest importance 10 the republic. IL
demonstrated that no party will be permit
ted TO hold power without limits OF time;
that when it has ruled so long that its lead
ers assume that they have q kind OF divine
right TO rule, it viii be brought to, It's senses
by a signal defeat; that there is always in
the country q body of ipdepeadenemen
who, when the exigency requires a display
Of their Independence, win show that they
prefer the welfare of the Republic to the be-
hests off party; that the people, though
sometimes submitting patiently to misrule,
viii not forever submit, and that q time will
surely come when they viii overthrow the
transgrsssors; that, when that time does
come, they viii in the choice Of their rulers,
prefer sound Judgment to delusive brillian-
CIV, i~ncorrupible motives to questionable
methods, and undaunted courage to subtle
dexterity. 1t further proves that the people
cannot longer be misled by sectional sP-
peals, but that, determined to maintain the
constitution and the Union they long for a
union ofinterests and Of hearts as well as oil
territory and institutions.
