THE NEW YORK MAYORALTY.

The dispatch that brought the intel
lgence of the acceptance by Abram S.
Hewitt of the nomination of the Demo
cracy of New York for Mayor of that city,
sounds the death knell of the hopes of
Henry George for that position, for sew
eral reasons, chief among which is the
undeniable fact that the workingmen of
that metropolis are Democrats, and with
few exceptions affiliate either with
Tammany or the County Democracy. The
men who have given allegiance to George
by reason of the sweet sounding of
his theories, will naturally gravitate to-
ward their former allegiance to Demo
cratic principles and hold the old time
ascendancy Of the party in that city.
This year is the first time for
many years that the conflicting wings of
the party have agreed in harmony to sup
port the same candidate, hence his cleo
lion is foregone conclusion. As George
opens up his plans and ambitions, the
working masses see the Utopian nature
of his theories, and the thousands of work
ingmen who have invested their life's
earnings in small properties in that city
will tight shy of such dangerous uncer-
tainties, to support the well-tried admin
istration Of affairs by the Democratic
party. Henry Georges royal jump at
the very head and fountain of municipal |
life in America, to subordinate it to |
his crude theories, has happily been
shorn Of its possible success, and all
good men will breathe easier for it. |
The great danger of experimenting
with settled governments to inaugurate
theoretical government in their places,
does not seem to have dawned upon the
minds OF the men who have promised
support to George, but between now and
election day the error of their judgment |
Will be made apparent to them and they
will agree that it was best that they were
not successful. 1t is a case where the
homely old couplet comes in with ten
force:
ITS better to stay at home with the Devil
you know
Than go. out with the Devil you don't know"

THE COLOR LINE.

The DEMOCRAT will print tomorrow
an open letter from General Master
Workman Powderly of the X. L., which
he wrote to counteract the construction
placed upon his selection OF colored work
man Farrell to introduce him (Powderiy)
to the Convention. Mr.. Powderly, with
one stroke of his pen, now disarms all
criticism, by saying he did not know un-
til after he had been in Richmond several
days, that colored men were not allowed
to enter theatres and other public places,
save it was in parts of the building as
signed to their race, and now that the
DEMOCRAT is aware that Mr.. Powderly
was ignorant of this fact, and that there
was, in sense, social ostracism for col
ored people in all large Southern cities,
it certainly feels that it should not have
attributed the mistake of calling the Con-
vention in Richmond, to that gentleman.
But who would believe that such keen
intellect as that of the General Master
Workman of the X. of l.. could be So
blind to what is 50 well known all over
the land? The waving of the "bloody
shirt" and "negro outrages" has been
the stock in trade OF Republican politi-
clans for twenty years past, and all they |
ever had to bank on for the outrages,
was the very natural-whether judicious
or not-dislike which is born in the pres
ent grown generation Of Southern people |
to admit the colored race to an equality |
in social standing with them. So far as |
the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constu- !
tion can work the equality of the colored
man before the law, he has been recog-
nized as equal, but a mans house is his
castle, into which the law has no right
TO intrude, when not violated, and South
ern or Northern men have a perfect right
10 regulate their social intercourse to
suit themtelVes, without regard for the
law, so that they in no manner infringe
its commands. The DEMOCRAT holds
that Powderly did right in selecting
hhOlh ilC plCd5cu " lIllTOUuCe nlT0, but
thinks the action was an unwise one. as
it was fraught with trouble to the Order.
and likely to interfere with smooth
working of the business before the Con-
vention. For this reason it was mis-
take, no matter how it was done. For
Inc third time the DEMOCRAT agrees with
PowGerly's action as a matter OF law and
right, and claims that Farrell could
obtain damages from the owners {
of the Richmond theatre if he |
pressed his case, had he been elected;
but these things are foreign to the well !
are OF the X. of L., and should never :
lave been brought up at this inauspicious
ime. 1t is possible that no paper ever
ssailed Powderly for what they assumed i
vas wrong in his act-save some cranky a
r hot-headed fre-eater of a country edi- q
or-but for what was manifestly iniudi- s
lous at this time, as the X. of L. is not . .
4 the business OF adjusting so cial ques- a
ons in the South, but of adjusting the =
lbor question all over the land. r,

BECOMING ANXIOUS.

The usually conservative and well in
formed Pueblo ChiefGin, the Republican
organ OF the united Pueblos in Colorado
becoming anxious for the fate of NYm. II
Meyer, the Republican candidate for
Governor of that State, flops over from
the usual method of coercing votes, and
steals Democratic thunder for that mr.
pose as follows
Let every Republican-espeoialIy everv

of the whole country are turned TO Colorado

Wall street will shout itself hoarse over
the defeat of Symes or Meyer, and all the
great anti-silver dailies would proclaim the
TACT IN glarlng head lines that the people of
Colorado had "repudiated the silver fanat
ics." 1t is very true that the platform en-
dorses silver and only gives step motherlv
endorsement to Oleveland's administration
as whole, but the enemies of silver will
not PRINT the Democratic platform when
tney are claiming victory for the admins

lority in Colorado at this time will do more
70 mold up the hands of the silver man in
all OF the other States, and insure a silver
majority in the next Congress. than any-
thing else that can happen.
The opening qualification especially
every silver Republican, ought to be
sufficient to show to the general reader
how lame and impotent is the whole ap-
peal. Why especially every silver Re
publican?" Why not all Republicans? ?
For the short and simple reason that
only among Republicans and Republican
journals can be found any enmity TO
silver. That Wall street, which would
shout itself hoarse over the defeat of
Meyer is Republican Wall street, that ;
would sacrifice all before the God of .
Mammon, TO obtain the ascendency of ,
gold, and care no more for the good of !
the general people than for the dirt of
that street. Every sensible man can see i
Tor himself that the Democratic party

OF silver where it belongs, does not hesi- 4
tate to attack the false position of its own 4
Administration on the subject, move !,

party If its object be not speedily accom- q

ARBITRATION.

To prove that arbitration between
capital and labor is meeting with favor
among the leading writers and thinkers
OF the day, We publish the following from
an article by Professor Richard T. Ely, in
the October North american Review:
A permanent "board of arbitration and
conclllation" was first established in Not
tlngham, Eng, in 1860, in the glove and
hosiery trade, and its founder was Mr.. A.. J.
Mundella, one of those broad intelligent
manufacturers now found SO frequently in
England, who have grasped their position in
society as captains of industry" These
Poaio Poards nave brought peace to the glove and
hosiery and lace trade in Nottingham, and
have done almost as much for the iron trade
IN the north of England, while they have
acnleveo pralSeworthy results in mining and
other industries. The favorite constitution
OF the boards is similar to that in France.
save that an umpire is chosen by the repre-
sentatlves of the workingmen and their en-
ployers, and no president or vice. president is
appointed by Government. The umpire is
some one not connected with the
trade, whose decision is final in case the
representatives of the parties cannot come
TO an understanding without his aid. Men
well known as unpires are Mr.. Thomas |
hughes, Sir Rupert Kettle, Mr.. Joseph |
Chamberlain and Sir Thomas Brassey.

men are brought nearer together we NAV /

WEST WASHINGTON.

The "Mikado Fete," held Mt Forrest Hall
last evening, was, considering the inclem-
ency Of the weather, fairly well attended.
The young ladies' drill was the feature of
the evening, and they deserve great credit
for the efficient manner In which they per-
formed It. The handsome decorations of
the hall and the varied dresses Of the young
lady walters in their several characters
made very pretty scene. The "fete" will
continue this evening, with q matinee to-
morrow.

The italian Counterfciters.

In the Criminal Court this morning the
motion in arrest Of judgment in the cases
of Prscitello Matteo and Salvatore Arrigo,
convicted OF passing counterfeit money,
was oyerruled and they were sent to the pen
itcntiory for two years. 1t being shown
that the men were novices at the work, the
sentence was made light. The wives,
Guiseppina Arrigo and Geneva GENTLE,
alias Giovanna Gentle, had also been in
dicted, but having small children about
them and no one to care for them, the Gov
ernment was content that they should be
discharged. In the case of Vincenzo Ar
rigo, son Of Salvatore, he was permitted to
plead guilty and sentence was suspended
in order that he might assist in providing
for the women and children. The Govern
ment admitted having weak case against
Giuseppe Busatello and entered a nolle
pros. as to him.
