Yesterdays Pittsburg Gazette said Of the
Nail Association:
1t is more than likely that after to-day the
Office of the Western Nail Association will
be at Wheeling or at some point west of
that city. The meeting of the Association
called for that city to day is ostensibly to
allow the nail manufacturers of the Mahon-
ing Valley, Pittsburg and Western States to
critically examine the process of steel nail
making, but in reality the object of the
meeting is to take the Office from Pitts
burg. The Wheeling members OF the
Association are bent on this movement
and are very substantially backed by many
of the Western manufacturers. "0ne of the
strong objections to the Office remaining in
Pittsburg is the idea generally prevalent
that as it is at present constituted it is inim-
ical to our best interests" said q manufac-
turer, o day or two ago. "Mr. Weeks, our
Secretary, is also Western editor of the Iron
Age, a paper that has done our business
more injury than any other factor that |
can recall Just now. Its quotations, time.
and again, have served to break our card
prices, and as cften weakened the market
and cut the prices. For instance, some time
ago nails were quoted by the card at 81. In
a copy OF the Iron Age was something like
this:
mails are quoted at card rates at 50, with
the usual discounts for carloads aud cssh.
A number Of sales, however, is reported at
81. 909l.95."
The result of this squib was to cut our
card all to pieces.
There are q few nail manufacturers and
hundreds Of wholesale hardsaremen and
jobbers, and all of them take the Iron Age,
and of course take Its quotations as stand.
ard and we are the sufferers. We have
more than once tackled Mr.. Weeks about
this apparent breach Of faith on his part
but as often has he asserted that he Ia in

they are prepared By some a over whom
he has no control. Some Of u have been
q little skeptical about this statement but

The President made quick aud safe
journey to Buffalo and return and is now
enjoying the pleasure incident to Demo-
cratic success in New York and Virginia.
The victory OF the Democracy in the
Empire state was wrenched from the very
jaws Of defeat by the public acts Of the
President.
The most important of these acts was the
mission Of Col. Lamont at the critical mo-.
mcnt to the chiefs and bosses OF the state,
assuring them of the deep interest the
President felt in the election, and delivering
the collateral which demonstrated the
earnestness and truthfulness Of the state.
ment, in the shape of presidential check.
In no other state of the Union does
money talk so loud as in New York. In
fact, money is the God of New York city,
and the President knows 1t.
The announcement of the payment of the
money united the chief Of factions and
opened the money bags. 1t operated as an
instruction to all federal and state officials
to do likewise Had the President remained
passive, as in the Ohio election, Davenport
would have received majority Of the votes
cast equal to II not exceeding the majority
Of Judge Foraker in Ohio.
The power of the President in this can
vass was made irresistible by the fact that
he had made but few appointments in the
state, and there were hundreds of caudi-
dates for every place to be filed. 1t dem
onstrated the truth of the declaration that
patronage bestowed is weakness, patron
age on hand is strength"
Therefore, the strength Of patronage and
the power of money, combined with the
sollcitude expressed by the President in
words and acts, surmounted every obstacle
and secured Democratic success which
insures him the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency in 1883.

and salute the rising sun.

VIII MIR. Holman Investigate?

For n considerable time education has
been considered good thing for all people,
but, however strange 1t may seem, until
lately Indian boys and girls have not been
included IN the decision. Now that the
care Of government embraces even these,
II appears necessary to be alert lest the pub
lie provision should suffer or become quite
Intellectual owing to the interference and
misdircction OF private speculation.
From school In Blair county, Pa, four
Indian youths escaped, They were arrested
in Pittsburg and taken back "to be punished

on an average $40 per month by the govern

The November Elections.

Except in Massachusetts and Pennsyl-
vania, where the results attained were all
that could have been hoped for in an "off
year." the Republican party appears. to have
missed the smiles Of fortune in the cleo
tions Of the 3D. instant.
The Democratic plurality in New York
variously estimated at eight to fifteen
thousand. 1t is not immense on vote of
more than million, but 1t is enough. 1t
strengthens the Democratic hold on the
state that will probably control the pres-
dental election and increases the confidence
of the party in other states. 1t intensies
doubt on the outcome.
But 1t docs not show that the Republican
party, united and enthusiastic, with good
ticket and the capital that Democratic rule
will by that time have supplied, will not
sweep New York and all other close states
three years hence, and take control of the
government with emphatic popular ap-
proval.
Various causes are assigned for the failure
Of the Republicans of the Empire state to
realize the hopes which they entertained,
and which We're shared by their political
brethren in the nation at large. We are told
that the Mugwumrs did not return in large
numbers; that the platform was too bitter in
its assaults on the administration, and that
some Of the "lmportedn speakers were
more injudiciously bitter than the platform.
To us the immediate cause is plain-Repub-

had not sufficiently recovered from the dc.
feat of last year to feel profound interest
in the campaign of this year, while the
Democrats had the inspiration of their first
victory since 1856 and the active aid of an
administration whose home is in and whose
future depends on New York. As the
Tribune puts it
The Democrats know that they can afford to
| neglect everything else, If they can hold New
York and the solid south. They have concen

of precedent, they have taken from that state
