The Harmonious Democracy.

From the Albany Journal.
The Indication of split in the Demo-
cratic majority of congress, multiply as
it becomes evident that the election of
Speaker Carlisle really meant tariff re-
form. The Democratic party has grown
so accustomed to marching up boldly to
an issue under leader in no sympathy
with that issue, and when successful i'm
securing position, promptly disavowing
ana fleeing from the spirit it has evoked
that it can hardly understand Mr.. Car
isles sincerity. 1t has begun to dawn
upon the intelligence Of Ohio Democrats
that tariff reform means a reduction of
the duties on wool, Louisiana Democrats
are learning that sugar taxes are to be
cut down, South Carolina Democrats that
their protected rice must go. and Alaba-
ma Democrats fear for iron. There is
general bowling of Indignation already
from all these quarters that this was not
what they meant when they elected Car
Isle. They did rot understand when
they voted for him that he was insincere
in his professions. The tariff reform
they desired only affected some other
cOngressmans protected interests A
very pretty row is already on foot in the
Democratic-party which promises to re-
suit in an open SUIT if Mr.. Carlisle keeps
to his program. Under similar cir
cumstanres other Democrats have gener-
ally backed down. Mr.. Carlisle is said
to be obstinate, courageous ana sincere.
Here is what Democratic paper, the
Cincinnati Times-Star says of the action
of Democracy i'm Ohio: ut is doubtful if
the disgraceful operations of the syndiats
Of corruption at Columbus have a paral-
lei in the annals Of Ohio politics. de-
liberate attempt is made to elect Sena-
tor by the use of money and the distribu-
tiOn of the spoils. Very well. Now

Wednesday, the Goth inst, was sad
day to those who had been familiar

while so employed he lost his life a.
do hundreds of others each year.
He had been railrnading for abou
twelve years. and never before me
with any severe accident, because ht
had been very prudent. Bat one uu
fortunate step while breaking on som,
fiat cars. precipitated him between th'
cars on the track ,aud two heavy trucks
passed over him. leaving him man
gled mass living perhaps an hour, bu
unconscious.
Tommy commenced to work for the
Grand Rapids & Indianapolis r. r
Co. on the 26th day of July last, ant
labored for them at the time Of th'
accident, about the 18th inst, at l..
Otto, Indiana.
His first employment on the railroa,
was on the N. Y, P. & o. Ry., som
twelve years ago.
He was born in Canada August
1856, and was 20 years of age on th
I'd day OF August last They sOol
moved to Portage county after he wa
born, residing short time in ShalerS
willie, where his father died after whiel

A Fearful SRNashuD.

Between twelve and one O'Clock
Sunday morning most frightful col
lision occurred between two freight
trains OH the P. c. & T. Railroad,
about two miles west of town, near a
sharp curve in the road. The trains
were running at good rate of speed
and the locomotives came together
with terrific force. completely wreck
ing both of them. The tender of the
west bound train caught fire and was
burned, as was also the cab. Hun
dreds of people visited the scene of the
disaster during the day. A wrecking
gang got to work about ten o'clock
Sunday morning and at late hour in
the evening the track was cleared of
the wreck and rendered passable. The
damage is variously estimated at from
$4,000 to $4,000. Fortunately no
lives were lost and no one sustained
serious injury. The accident was oc
casioned by the west bound train leav-
ing the station ahead of time.

have no money to advertise goods not

not deceive any. The people know

Progress is the order of the day.
Our little village, not by the sea, but a
great distance inland, is somewhat
different from Tryone, that, among
the lonely gorges and craggy peaks of
the Coast Range, where from the river
a narrow canyon creeps back, noun

on and on through the chasm, where
the dark shadows hang like pail, out
in the bright sunlight like titting
smile, around a bend by silent mill
and through a broader stretch of
country it reaches the limpid waters
of the Russian river. and flows onward
to the sea. Oh, no, this is small vii
lage, located on beautiful spot, away
from angry mountainous streams and
cyclones of the Western type, and the
ravages of wild men and beasts. This
