A STRANGE ACCIDENTAL young man
named Ayres, who is employed by the Hart.
ford Electric Light Company, in Hartford,
Conn.,, is just recovering from most re-
markable accident which befell him about
three weeks ago. It was his duty to replen-
ish the arc lamps with new carbons, and on
the day-or, rather, evening-in question
he was making his usual rounds. He had
climbed to the top of high polo, and while
passing one ofhis legs over crosstree just
beneath the lamp he took hold Of wire
over his head in order to steady himself. The
insulator must have been imperfect, for he
received most powerful shock. He was
unable to cry out, and in an instant had lost
consciousness. After dangling there for a
moment he fell, but in his downward course
he struck against another wire, the back of
his neck touching it. Several people saw
him fall and went to his assistance. He was
fearfully injured, and when they picked
him up it was thought he was dead. He
remained unconscious for several hours,
but when sensibility was restored he found
that he WAS completely parslyzed. For
days be remained in this condition, and
then, slowly, began to mend His surgeon
was most assiduous in his attentions to the
young man; and now he has the satisfaction
of seeing him gradually being restored to
health. His face is badly SCARED by the
fall, and q cash that extended from his
right ear down bis neck and over his breast
has fourteen stitches in it, At present Ayres
is able to walk about by the aid of crutches,
but it will be some time before he can re-
turn to work owing to the weak condition
of his nervous system The surgeon, in
commenting on the remarkable case, says
that Ayres was undoubtedly dead when he
fell from his perilous position, but the lower
wire touching his neck while he was falling
restored him to life.

The CONVENTION.

The National Democratic Committee
has xad upon time aud place tor the
holding Of The National Coz ention,
and every Body exc ri CaliCrnlans will
be glad that the place is not San Fran
CISCO, al al will ej0ice that the time
is not So late as July 3rd. St LOUIS has
been CHOSEN as tue convention city, ano
the Gate fixed upon is June 5:h. There
were some things to recommend San
francisco. The people there are big
hearted, generous, whole-souled enter
taiuers. They do E0thing by halves.
They would delight in providing the
delegates biz time, and would show
how much etter thy coal1 tie 1t the
guests than any body else would treat
the latter. These are some OF the things
in favor Of holding the convention In
San Francisco, ana they are about all
there is al favor OF it. TWAS said that
the enthusiasm inspired by the conven-
ton would carry the State Tor the
Democrats. This is doubted; but sup
pose CALIFORNIA; electoral votes
were to be cast for the Demo-
cratic nominees, they wouldn't
elect. But the great objection
to San Francisco is its distance from
the population centre of the nation.
The average time which would have
been Consumed by delegates would be
not less than three weeks, and mas
much as the convention is to be bust
ness affair AID not an arrangement Tor
q few hundred men to indulge in
pleasure picnic, the wonder is that any
body ever thought seriously of going off
to the western continent with the con-
vention.
Twas hoped that New York would
have been sci cted as the convention
CITY. For the Democrats New York is
the pivotal State. The Republicans can
elect without it, nut The Democrats can
not: therefore, Whatever OF prestige or
enthusiasm is inspired by the cohven-
ton, should have gone to New York,
where the parties are SO evenly divided
that the official returns have to be
closely computed to ascertain which
has won. The date of the convention.
June 5th, is much more satisfactory
than was the time first agreed upon,
July Sd. The additional month for the
campaign work will be worth a good
deal to the party. This is not to be
any walk-over campaign. The contest
will be close one, aud the Democrats
cannot afford to give the enemy any
advantage.

advantage

Senator Blair is good deal of q crank
and fogy. but be has some excellent
ideas in regard to morals. The bill
which he introduced in the Senate last
Monday will be opposed by some mem
bers of Congress, if common rumors can
be relied upon, but it should nevertbe-
less become law. 1t is in the interest
of good morals and would do much for
the protection OF women. Rape is the
most fendish crime in the calendar,
and should De punished capitally, but
in most States the guilty escape unless
individuals take the matter into their
own hands. Senator Blair proposes g
penalty of from ten to thirty years i'm
prisonment, and for life if potioDs OF
drugs are used to aid in carrying out the
crime. He would make the punishment
for unlawtulIy knowing female under
10 years of age from five to ten years
imprisonment, and for a second offense
Imprisonment for life. If Congress
would legislate more in the interest OF
morality and less in the interest of job;
and steals, the country would have
more respect for it.

THE TERRITORIES.

1t seems there is to be partisan
fight over Springer's omnibus bill for
the admission of Montana, Washing
ton, Dakota and New Mexico into the
Union. The Democrats in the House
committee on Territories all favor the
bill, and all the Republicans oppose it,
and will present minority report.
The poor Territories are not to be con-
suited in the business: their rights in
the premises are not to be taken into
account; their qualifications for State
hood are not even 10 be inquired into.
The division in the committee shows
this, that the Republicans do not con-
slider that it will be for the interest of
their party in a partisan sense, to ad-
init these Territories TO the Union, and
therefore the Republicans must oppos
the admission, not as individuals. bit

AS THE session of the Legislature
draws to a close there comes the pre-
monition of the usual wind up; that is
to say, Of rushing and hasty legislation
during the closing hours, of failure for
want of time to act deliberately on i'm
portant measures, of the failure of bills
to pass, and of imposing on the Gov
ernor a ba CHI Of bills which it will be
impossible for him to cIrefully and

taken in this matter, and hope we are

BILE. The fact that the Democrats IN
this Instance are less to be censured
than the Republicans is not due to any
higher sense of justice on the part OF
the former, but solely to the circum-
stance that the Democrats happen to
be on the right side, because the Terri
tories happen to be more strongly
Democratic than Republican. If the
majority of the committee favored ad-
mission on the ground that the Terri
tories were entitled to it, by reason of
their wealth. population, ability to
ma ntain republican government and
the right of their people to the enjoy
ment OF American citizenship; then the
Democrats would be deserving OF the
commendation which they will claim
for their partisan action.
Fortunately the Territories are few in
number and are growing N population
and Importance so rapidly, that they
cannot much longer be kept out of the
Union and deprived of their rights. The
infamous system muse soon go because
there will be no place or people upon

A REMARKABLE ADDRESS,

In the last issue. Of the BANNER
brief reference was made editorially
to the strike on the Reading railroad
and the coal mines operated by it.
Satisfaction was expressed at the
outcome. and occasion was taken to
make the remark that if the labor
agitators and the turbulent and
tyrannieal strikers were allowed to
dictate to their employers how the
latter should conduct their business,
strong point in favor of commun-
ism would have been gained, and
that with equal reason the dictators
could march a step further and an
initiate capital and refuse to allow
anyone to acquire property private
" that he could call his own. Since
the above paragraph was penned a
conference Of labor delegates has
met in New York and issued an ad-
dress which is unparalleled for the
defiant boldness with which it has
been launched forth, and for the hos
tile and lawless sentiments expressed.
1t calls upon the Grades unions, So
cialists, anarchists, knights laborists,
and other lists to join in a general
war upon capital. 1t makes a bitter
TRADE against the New York Tribune
and Herald and other papers, and
declares: Two thousand men who
appreciate the situation can with
every ease cause those hireling edi-
tors to regret that they suggested
the best means of eradicating an
evil from society," The address
breathes out threatenings and
slaughter and bloody vengeance. to
all who dare oppose the high handed
and lawless acts of these imbroilers
and fomenters of disorder. As a
consequence all respectable and
true knights of toll will gradually
withdraw from the order. They
cannot afford to let the stigma rest
on them Of belonging to an order
that calls for sympathetic aid and
