A HEARr.sICK EDITOR.

Our Republican friends are busying
themselves nightly to belittle George
William Curtis and others OF their re-
spectacle element" who kick against
Black Jack and the Plumed Knight.
They say that Mr.. Curtis once expressed
some admiration for Mr. Blaine, but that
now his mind has changed. Well, what
of that, even if it be true? There has
been q good deal to learn about Mr..
Blaine since 1880, when, it is said, Mr..
Curtis Landed him; and a man had bet
ter be right late than never. 1t is, be-
sides, not near so indicative of hypocrisy
when a man retracts Independently as
when he swallows crow to the tune of
the party lash. For example. the Chi
q z Tribune is now n of the stanch-
est of Blaine's supporters, though it
started out as Logan's home organ. In
1876 the Tribune took occasion to make
. few remarks on the convention then in
progress at Chicago. Among other
things the Tribune said concerning Mr..
Blaine's candidacy:
II Mr.. Blaine is nominated there will
begin the long, tedious and heart-sicken-
ing work of explaining and defending
that score of letters, several OF which
have not yet seen the light, and de-
Tending a long record of votes for subsi-
dies to ~monopolies and questionable legis-
lation of other kinds. If, before that
campaign be ended, the people shall
weary Of the disgusting repetition, and
at the October elections in Indiana and
Ohio shall resent such a nomination
and such a record. and in November
shall elect a Democratic President and
a Democratic Senate and House, and
deliver to the party the control OF
th~ree-fourths Of the State government,
we insist that no Republican shall hold
this paper responsible for the folly
which invited such disaster by the
nomination of such a candidate.
The conditions with regard to Blaine
have not changed since 1876. Why,
then, asks the New York Star, should
Mr.. Medill enter upon such 'hears-
sickening work" as he has graphically
painted-work SO foolish that he in
sists he shall not be held responsible
for ii?

BLAINE AND THE WAGES Oh
LABOR.

Says the New York Telegram:
''Blaine's nomination means defeat to
the Republican party. Aside from his
other record, already well ventilated in
the press, he is particularly obnoxious to
the labor organizations throughout the
country. His championship by the New
York Tribune has brought this about.
For the past five months a bitter fight
has been going on between Typographi-
cal Union No. 6 and the Tribune, on &C.
count of the lockout of the Union men
by that paper last December. The Ty-
biographical Union has a membership Of
1000 in New York City, and is closely
allied with every labor organization in
New York State, and with the powerful
organization Of the Knights OF Labor
throughout the United States. 1t is
represented by delegates in the Interna-
tional Typographical Union, a body COM
posed Of delegates from 100 subordinate
Unions. ~aggregating something over
$4,000 printers. Owing to their repre-
sensations in the various trade assem-.
blies throughout the country, they can
make their influence tell among nearly
100000 organized workingmen, and
they have been exerting their influence
for some time"
These determined men who gave the

THE ORIGINATOR OF THE IN
FAMOUS BLACK LAWS OF ILL
NOlS.

Chicago News: To-day John A. Logan
plumes himself as the chosen leader Of
the Grand Army of the Republic, the
devoted friend Of the negro and a fit
standard bearer of the Republican party.
Before the war he was a rabid Democrat,
and a negro hater and prosecutor. and
aided and abetted secession. Turning back
the pages of the journals of the Illinois
Legislature it is found that he was the
originator Of the black laws which pre-
vented the immigration of free negroes
into this State. This law was passed
Feb. IL, 1853. The first section of this
barbarous law provided for the indict-
ment of any person or persons who
should bring or cause to be brought into
this State any negro or mulatto slave,
whether said slave is set free or not.
The true spirit Of the law is best shown
in the following section
Sec. 3. If any negro or mulatto, bond
or free, shall hereafter come into this
State and remain ten days with the evil
dent intention of residing in the same,
every such negro or mulatto shall be
deemed guilty Of high misdemeanor, and
for the first ofense shall be fined the sum
of $50, to be recovered before any Justice
of the Peace in the county where said
negro or mulatto may be found. Said
proceedings shall be in the name of the
people of the State of Illinois, and shall
be tried by a jury Of twelve men.
Succeeding sections provide that the
fine shall be increased $50 over the last
penalty inflicted for every successive
conviction, and also that the negro OF
mulatto, bond or free, shall be sold al
public auction ito any person or per
sons who will pay said fine and costs,
for the shortest time." Informers were
encouraged in the bloodhound work BY
the promise of half the fine.

4 TERRIBLE DLsAsTBR.

GLASGOW, Nov. IA terrible dis
aster occurred at the Star Theatre
last night during the performance.
Some one raised the cry of "fre."
In an instant the Immense audi>
ence was on its feet and rushing to-
ward the doors. The exits became
blocked and a terrific struggle en-
sued. men and women fighting and
trampling on each other in frantic
efforts to reach the street. The at
taches of the theatre and the pos
lice vainly tried to quell the excite
ment by assuring the panic-stricken
people that there was no fire, but
their cries only served to augment
the chaos. The shrieks and curses
of the terrified and unreasoning
mass of people packed in the mar
row aisles and corridors attracted a
large crowd in front ofthc building,
but they could render no help, be-
ing unable to enter. The fatal
crush occurred where the corridors
leading from the pit and gallery
converged, and here the struggle
was most violent. Hundreds of
men and women were almost en~
tirely destroyed, and men would
force themselves upon the should
ers of others only to be themselves
thrown down and trampled on,
while women in their desperation
fought with the ferocity of tigers.
The efforts Of the actors, aided by
the cooler headed of the audience,
were finally successful in pursuad-
ing those in the rear that there was
no fire, and the pressure gradually
lesscned, allowing those in front to
get into the street. When the pan
ic had subsidized aud the theatre was
I. cleared, it was found that Is pere
had been killed, II fatally injured
and many others badly hurt, while
the corridors, aisles and vestibule
were strewn with articles of cloth
ing, jewelry, &c. The alarm was
started by discharged workman
about the theatre, out Of revenge
for dlsmission. He has been arrest

OUR NASHVILLE LETTER.
NASHVILLE. Nov. 9.

NASHVILLE, Nov. 8.
To the Editor Of the Horristown Gazette
1t is over, or at least it ought to
be, and Democracy is triumphant
for the first time in a quarter of a
century. With 219 electoral votes
there will surely be no trouble in
planting our standard-bearer IN the
presidential char. But the Repub-
licans are such adopts at counting
in and out, that the public general
ly cannot believe that Cleveland
will be seated until the vote of New
York is finally settled by another
count. The Board OF Canvass will,
l see, proceed to this work soon.
Fortunately for us, four out of the
five members of that Board are
Democratic and fair count may
be depended on. Nashville is wild
with enthusiasm, and has been since
Tuesday night. The many contra
dictory kilograms sent out during
the first three days following the
election caused agonizing suspense,
which is not altogether Quilted.
Both sides have got in their yell
ing in advance of the ascertaining
of the actual result, which is great
consolation. Bonfres have been the
nightly rule, and an immense dem
onstration was made last night on
the Public Square.
Already Democrats of all ages arc
beginning to look around to see
what offices they can be induced to
take. Nearly all the yocng ladies
who work are bent on positions in
the post Office. 1t is amusing to
note the various choices of various
Democrats. They all heartily con-
curin Marcy's utterance, 'to thevic
tors belong the spoils."
The result in this State is claimed
by the Republicans to-be in doubt.
Frank Reid is asserting that he is
elected, but this is prepesterous.
Bate is $4,000 a head with 30 coun-
ties to hear from. These gave a
net Republican majority in 1882 Of
4,725. 1t would take an average
net gain of 500 to the county to
elect him. Leonidas Caesar and
Roderick Random are here trying
to figure it out, so as to properly in
struct their back counties, but they
have made their trip for nothing.
There will be bare working ma
.jority for the Democrats in both
houses of the Legislature.

ADDRESS TO THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.

HEADQUARTERS MATT. Dem.
COMM" Il West oath, street, n. Y.
Nov. Z, 18S4.-To the people of the
United States: There can no long
err be any question concerning the
actual result of the Presidential
election. Grover Cleveland and
Thos. A. Hendricks have Is elector-
al votes more than necessary to
elect them. 1t is absolutely certain
that the returns ofthe proper officers
of the election on the night Of the
4th of November showed a decisive
plurality in the State for the cleo
tors supporting Cleveland and Hen
bricks. If any different or altered
returns now being prepared, or are
promulgated, they are corrupt falls
fications of the records of the State
of New York, and the men aiding
and abetting the making of such
reports are criminals. 1t is not ex-
pected that you tamcly submit to
the Vaccinations of such men. Let
them understand that you will not.
Recognize at noon tomorrow
throughout the United States the
actual election of Cleveland and
Hendricks by firing national salutes.
Meet o-morrow night throughout
the country and express your opin-
ions in such a manner that they
cannot be misunderstood. Men of
New York arc resolved not to sub
NIT to the GROSS outrage that is at
tempted to be perpetrated upon
their rights and will speak for them
selves"

.THE GREAT VICTORY !.
LATEST ELECTION NEWS.

There is nothing in the latest dis
patches to unsettle the conviction
that is growing all over the coun-
try, that Cleveland and Hendricks
have carried New York by from
1900 to 1900 plurality, New Jersey
by 23l9, Connecticut by 1900 and
Indiana by 5000. The South is
undoubtedly solid for Cleveland and
Hendricks, the smallest majority in
any one State being over 1000 in
Florida. West Virginia has in
creased her Democratic majority
above that given in October, while
Virginia gives at least 5000 MAORI
~, and Louisiana 17,401. Michi-
gan has gone Republican by about
5000, and California by about the
same margin.
The only States in the North to
show an increased Republican plu-
rality or majority are California,
Colorado, Maine, Nevada, Ohio,
Oregon, and Pennsylvania. In
these the increase is very trifling,
save in Maine and Ohio. The
main Republican increase Is on the
Pacific slope, where Blaine was exs
ceptionally strong on account Of his
anti,Chinese record, and where the
Democrats voluntarily allowed the
campaign to go by default, even
keeping their leader in that section,
Gen. Rosecrans, in the Eas. until
the very day ofelectlon.
On the other hand the Democrats
have made some astonishing gains
in Connecticut, Indiana, New York,
Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Massaehu-
sets, Michigan, Minnesota, Rhode
Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin.
nc DCinOCIdIiC gains III SOiiS "
these States is phenomenal. In
New York it is over 10000, in Hi
nois over 10000, in Iowa over g.
600, in Indiana over $4,000, in
Kansas nearly 10000, in Massachu-
sets almost 10000, in Minnesota
over 5000, and in Wisconsin about
10000.
This shows tremendous decline
of the strength of a once dominant
and irresistible party. 1t is the
more striking when the extraordin-
airy measures and vast millions
which are used by it in the cam
paign are considered.
Nor is the result much less strik-
ing on Congressman. Notwith-
standing that the Democratic ma
jority of the present House was se@
cured by a tidal wave in an off year,
the party has nearly maintained
that majority, showing itself par
ticularly strong in Indiana, Miehis
gan, and Illinois, in the North.

Tee following letter was received by
Governor Cleveland this morning.
"HoN. GROVER CLEVELAND
any DEAR SRI congratulate
yon and the people of the whole

You owe your election, in my judg-

made by any faction of either the
Democratic or Republican parties.
Independent men, who care more
for good government than for par

political organization or favored

BUSINESS AND THE PRESIDENCY

BUSINESS AND THE PRESIDENCY
Whether there shall be an honest,
manly submission 10 the undoubted
election of Cleveland to the Presi-
dency, as is periodically voiced by
the Albany EUening Journal, or
whether the desperately planned
effort to steal the vote of New York
shall be persisted in, there will be
little future disturbance to business
because of the election.
A dispute over the vote of the
controlling State would be disturb
ing for few days, but 1T would not
be likely to become a serious obsta-
Gle to the general tranquility.
There in no possible chance to re-
verse the vote of New York, when
Cleveland has the honest vote, four
or five members of the State Board
of Canvassers and the popular
branch Of Congress, and only the
most reckless political gamblers or
moons struck idiots would attempt
it.
The business interests of the
country will sternly frown upon
any attempt of political desperadoes
to dispute Cleveland's election.
Business has had one trial of a
Presidential theft, and it wants and
will have no more of it. There
would now be no moral or business
sentiment to sustain the electoral
burglars of 1876 in repeating the
crime in 1884, and what business
demands, even political gamblers
must obey. Jay Gould obeyed In
good time, and the minnows will
follow the whales.
The country wants peace; it must
have peace, and when the vote of
New York as returned by the pro-
per officers and undisputed until the
result was known, elects Cleveland,
and all the authority competent to
pass upon the vote is in sympathy
with Cleveland, the attempt to I'M
settle tho result is simply wanton
attack upon the business tFapquilli-
ty of the nation. The people have
elected their President, and the
business interests, already long
vexed and paralyzod by politicians,
demand that the judgment of the
country shall be promptly accepted
