Machinery and its Possibilities.
Manufacturers Gazet te.

Those who entertain the opinion that
the possibilities of labor having. machi-
merry are nearly exhausted, and that the
whole field of art industry in which it
may be advantageously employed has
been already covered by inventive ge
MUS, are greatly mistaken. That the
achievements of human ingenuity have
been wonderful goes without saying,
and there are reasons to believe that
future triumphs in this direction will
be even greater and more fruitful, We
are forced to this conclusion by reason
and analogy Who would have believ-
ed, only very few years ago, that the
difficult and complicated processes
which are now every day being wrought
out by machinery in various branches
of manufacture would have been pos
sible Thus it is that the problems
unsolyed by one generation become ac
complished facts by another. Who shall
say that what now seems impossible
and improbable may not be success
fully attained by those who will come
after us ? In the hands of the modern
scientific inventor, matter becomes al
most miraculously endowed with lite
and intelligence, and with great accu-
racy performs those functions which
the most skilled manual labor executes
but slowly and imperfect!y.

Cure for Charlton.

1t is reported that there is some char
bon in several of the parishes, and We
lepublsh for the benefit of our plant
ers the following method of treatment
adopted by the late ". j. Minor, of
Terrebonne. The remedy is simple,
and so cheap as to be within the reach
of all. Cnt this out and preserve it:
Charlton is supposed to be produced
by the bite OF fly that has been feed
ing on decomposed carcass, and is the
same disease with which surgeons and
students inoculate themselves with
when dissecting dead bodies. 1t COM
mences with a very small white pimple
which burns and itches greatly. The
head is soon scratched off and the pim-
pie discharges thin yellow matter or
wafer, not pus. An iron with IL button
on the end, about the size of a halle
nut, should be heated to II white heat,
inserted into the centre of the pimple,
and held there until it burns through
the skin. Then apply bits of cotton,
saturated with spirits OF ammonia,
fastening them on with bandases and
removing as often as they become dry
Fifty or sixty grains OF ammonia may
be given once, twice or three times a
day, according to symptoms. and it may
be necessary to repeat the burning
with the hot iron.

The constitution of this State says
+" Gambling is declared to be vice and
the General Assembly shall enact laws
for its SUPPRESSION The General As
sembly SO far, after search of six or
seven years, have discovered but one
kind of gambling: the Niger game
of craps; at least that is the only
one that has been legislated against.
The New Orleans City Item is the most
rampant paper in the State against
gambling but it does not seem to know
of any gambling establishments, ex-
eept the gilded bells in that city. The
most stupendous gambling institution
in the State, the Lottery, seems to have
escaped the attention both of the
General Assembly and of the City
Item. What commentary on the
trainers of the Constitution, that they
embodied in it both an order to the
General Assembly to suppress gamb-
ling and an authorization to license
lottery gambling.

Before the next Legislature is elected
some enterprising newspaper or citizen
should get the record of every legisla-
tor and let their constituents know by
circulars how they voted on the leading
questions and advise the people to be
more vigilant in the future. There
were several legislators, including a
few from North Louisiana, who
promised and pledged themselves to
vote for Jonas for Senator, but when
they got to Baton Rouge we're Induced
TO vote against the wishes OF the peo-
pie who SO honored them. We sup
pose money was the inducement offered
assEe were told much cash was used in
the last election for II. s. Senator. The
same is true of the Lottery question.
Every body seems to be against it. The
people instruct their Legislators against
1T, but enough are found willing to sell
themselves to defeat the wishes of the
people.
A Legislator that will sell ont and
vote against bis promises and the in
structiOn of the people who entrust
their interests to him, deserves to be
tarred and featheled by his constitu-
ents. IL tile law cal7not reach him the

The Shreveport Times takes Eustis
severely to task for neglecting to OPP
pose the railroad land grant at time
when opposition would have been
effective:
!" Among the statesmen who represen-
ted Louisiana at Washington 1S17-7S
was one James b. Eustis. This public
servant was there representing the
people of the entire State. Did he
chirpg At a period when the Vicks-
burg, Shreveport and Pacific grant
could have been forfeited, because the
Monroe-Shreveport division was not
yet undertaken. Mr.. Eustis, who now
sheds copious, nay. scalding tears for
the "poor settlers" was as dumb as the
oyster. He said nothing, he did moth
ing but ate and slept and drank while
the precious rights of the people were
slipping from their grasp. The grant
ought to have been forfeited then, and
ought to be forfeited now. At q time
when this could have been done, Mr..
Eustis did not move a finger; now
when it cannot be done he RACES impo-
tently over the dire wrong that is being
perpetrated. Isn't this delicious
consistency? If Mr.. King was in
Congress when the land grant could
have been forfeited, he should bear
half the blame; bill for the other
half can be justly presented to Mr..
Eustis.

and really takes a deep personal interest
in all that concerns the workingman.
This fact being admitted by the working
men OF New York City, they will doubt
less stop and consider well the following
from the World, as it is Of the greatest
interest to them, and written in spirit
free from prejudice, and looking only to
the general good OF the people OF New
York City:
SIN view of Mr.. Henry Georges visionary
land schemes, Mr.. Hewitt could scarcely
say, with the quiet man who put down the
ancient boaster, All that this man prom
ises / have DONE But he may justly claim
to have benefited workingmen, while Mr..
George has only written or talked about
benefiting them.
"The two candidates afford perfect types
of the theorists and the practical men of
the world. Mr.. George has written books
about things while Mr.. Hewitt has been
doing them. Mr.. George has told his sym
pathy for the workers, while Mr.. Hewitt
has shown his. Mr.. George has tried to in
vent ways in which Government can help
men, while Mr.. Hewitt has helped them to
help themselves in that best of all ways
by giving them steady work at liberal
wages. Mr.. George has philosophical
about Progress and Poverty Mr.. Hewitt
has progressed from poverty to. property
by the road ordained by God and nature
that of honest, indefatigable, individual
effort.
"Mr. George means we'll. Mr.. Hewitt not
only means well but does we'll. 1t will not
take intelligent American workingmen long
do decide which will make the better prac'
tical chief executive officer of the business
concerns of this great city"

'eace and harmony prevail.

SOME very fresh cuss in the employ OF
the Wabash Railroad Company, con-
ceived the brilliant idea OF beating the
Western Press out OF a small ten line ad
by falsely representing that he was a
subscriber to each paper addressed, and
on that plea obtaining the publication OF
the meaning of the name of the road.
The DEMOCRAT was caught by the little
joker, and finds that many OF its ex-
changes were also caught This informa-
ton may amuse said little Joker, but
hardly the men who control that road
and whom we believe would not counten-
ance such contemptible trick to obtain
such small returns in advertising The
tone Of our exchanges from Colorado, all
of whom have answered similar note
to that sent to the DEMOCRAT, proves that
this brilliant uss has placed tough rod
in pickle for his road, unless the manage
ment disowns this mans method Of hood
winking men who have no means OF
knowing such trick to be a fraud

SHOULD NOMINATE A CANDIDATE

The Democratic Territorial Committee
will meet at the law office OF Hall & Mar
shall at 8 80 this evening. The object OF
the meeting, as stated in the call, is "to
consider steps for political action
While the steps to be taken will of course
he decided by the Committee, the DEM
ocRAT is confident that each member is
desirous of representing the wishes OF the
party-or a majority thereof-and that
any suggestions from Democratic sources
will be kindly received and courteously
considered. SO far as this paper has been
able to ascertain, the feeling Of the
Democracy of the Territory--and it has
taken considerable pains to acquire in
formation-is almost unanimous in favor
ola party nomination for Delegate to Con-
gress. We have in fact heard of but
very few Democrats who dissent from
this policy, nor have we heard any rea-
son adduced, which, in our opinion,
weighs to any noticeable extent against
the arguments in favor OF the proposition
which have been too often presented in
these columns to require repetition. 1t
is also known to us that many Republi-
cans-probably majority-are desirous
that candidate representing the Ameri-
can element in the Territory should be
presented, and as their own nor the
Liberal organization have taken action in
the matter, they promise to most heartily
support any loyal person named by the
Democratic party in opposition to the
nominee of the First Presidency OF the
Mormon Church. In regard to the man
ner OF making the nomination, we are
confident that the party and the people
will endorse the action OF the Committee
in naming suitable candidate without
calling convention. The limited time
before the election and the fact that there
would be no contest for the nomination in
convention would certainly Justify the
Committee in presenting candidate
An Ogden correspondent yesterday sug.
gested Hon. r. n Baskin as the most
acceptable candidate that could be

gratified to support Judge Baskin and il
hopes to have an opportunity to do so.

SOUTHERN OUTRAGES

The magnetic man from Maine has the
country all agog again, this time by rea-
son OF his wonderful entree into and tri-
umphant passage through Pennsylvania,
and the thousands OF votes he will draw
after his music (chin) like the Pied Piper
OF Hamelin who drew the children out
OF town and shut them up in a hole in the
mountain, and, strange coincidence, the
Piper pulled the hole in after him and
has never been seen since. Can it be
that Blaine's piping trip through the
Keystone State will have similar end
ing? Let us see. The Philadelphia
Press, one OF the strongest Blaine sup
porters, says the trip will be personal
ovation and public demonstration which
has seldom been equalled," and that it
will be zone grand mass meeting from
Philadelphia to PittsbuIg." In Phila-
delphia Mr.. Blaine had bad cold; in
fact it was cold when he arrived there,
and it continued to grow colder as he ad-
vanced on Pittsburg, where he spoke last
IL. u.
as the Associated Press counts such
crowds. The DEMOCRAT would drop the
subject here but for one utterance OF the
magnetic statesman, as even Republicans
have something to win and are entitled
to fair chance to win it. Mr.. Blaine
ran up and down the scale, from a crisis
in the tariff question, to and through the
Government finances, gave the Knights
Of Labor little taffy, and there stopped
over on the inevitable rock OF Southern
outrages, saying among other things
"Negro suffrage was now absolutely de-
stroyed in the South. 1t took thirty-five to
thirty-eight representatives in Congress and
the same number of Presidential electors by
fraud and violence and counted them in the
Democratic column. We ought to be able
to make Solid North as they have made a
Solid South
The readers OF the DEMOCRAT will see
in this key note, the refrain OF the Sebago
effort, and as the DEMOCRAT outlined
some weeks ago, that the Southern out
RACES are to form cardinal point in the
ammunition of the Republicans in the cam
paign Of 'SS. Earnest thinking men will
pay no attention to this gross libel on the
Southern half OF the country as they
know that right in the hot-bed and nest
ing place OF former treason to the Govern
ment, Charleston, South Carolina, a col
ored man has been elected to Congress-
Robert Smalls-with but one intermis-
sion for the past five terms. Ifthere was
such state OF things in this eminently
Southern district, this could not have
happened. But as We have said before,
the Republicans must have something to
harp on, and when such leaders as Blaine
and Sherman in politics and Halstead
and Cowles in the press can find nothing
newer and more important than the hol-
low cry OF Southern outrages on which to
base their claim for political preference,
it will be admitted that it is one emf
nently cold season for them, and that the
lukewarm reception Of the magnetic man
in Pennsylvania, is a fitting Introduction
to cold season for Republicans

THE general convention OF the Knights
of Labor did kind act in appealing for
mercy for the condemned Chicago An
archists, and ii such appeals can have
any force with the Governor of Illinois,
doubtless this one will be considered. 1t
is noticeable, however, that the resolu-
tions contain total disavowal of the
preachings and practices of all such men,
and by that disavowal the plea for mercy
is rendered doubly strong, as the Gov
ernor can decide at once that it is the
plea OF the workingmen OF the country for
mercy to men justly condemned under
the laws.
