The statistics of Southern congress
sional elections are again being used
by some Republican papers to show
that there is not free ballot and a
fair count i'll the South. Ii these pa
pers will take the trouble to investi-
gate the matter, they will find that
the light votes cast are owing mainly
to the death of the Republican party
in the South Savannah News, Dem.
If the government is going in tie
telegraph business as a part of the
postal service, there is no reason why
it should not apply the same princi-
pie of rates in both cases. The uni
form rate for letters, regardless of the
distance they are carried, has been
found to work well, and there is no
reason why it should not do as well
for kilograms Louis Post-Dis-
patch, Dem.
Mr.. Lamar is fortunate. The State
rights decision Of the Supreme Court
in the Virginia habeas corpus case is
rendered before he goes on the bench.
Had the opinion been delayed till af-

Republican organs that have been
harping on the danger OF taking Su-
preme Judge from the South would
have cried: "We told you so"-[New

A National pure food convention
will be held at Washington in Janu-
airy. 1t is to be hoped that some
valuable information will be collected
and action taken that will result in
the reform Of food adolteration abuses.
But if the. convention follows the
usual course OF like movements it
will do nothing more than add testi-
mony for the conviction, at length,
that there is nothing in the world fit

If anything further had been needed
to confirm the mugwump in his mug
wumpism and to harmonic and unity
the Democratic party, it should have
been found in the spectacle at Wash
ington when Mr.. Belden took his seat
in the House and Mr. Chandler in the
Senate as champions of the Republi-
can party. If these men be put for
ward by the opposition in the day of
their defeat and humiliation, what

Chairman Jones, in his little speech
to the Republican National Com
mittee, attributes the present pros
perity Of the country to Republican
momentum" Not, we hope, from
the Republican mashup and panic of
1873, the most disastrous in our his
tory. Was it Republican mo-
mentum" that enabled Grover Cleve-
land to rescue 100000 acres of
public lands from corporations and
grabbers, or was the momentum" on
the side Of the grabbers? Tell us,

doings, but those of his unscrupulous
attorneys with their methods Of legal
bushwhacking and pettifogging, by
which these presentations were made
to the Committee.
We may expect to see papers
of such narrow-minded, hide
bound, twisted and purblind bias
as the San Francisco Bulletin
raise their inane cry on the side OF
this bushwhacking Sypher but the
verdict of fair minds in all parties
will be on the side of the Speaker OF

against the absolute settlement of the

The Great Storm.

One of the most disastrous storms
that ever visited the Eastern portions
OF the continent, began in New York
and adjacent States last Monday, and
continued several days. The storm
was accompanied in some portions OF
the country by fall OF snow and in
tense cold. Railways were blockaded
in all directions, the wires Frustrated,
and all communications suspended ;
and several collisions were reported on
tracks before the blockade began, in
which cars were smashed and passen-
gers MANNED. Several persons perish
ed in New York City from the intense
cold, one victim being a woman, who
actually froze to death ona prominent
corner OF Broadway and Fulton
Streets, popularity supposed to be the
busiest spot OH earth. The prolonged
scige rendered the supply OF provis-
ions short, and considerable suffering
likewise ensued from that cause. All
provisions had to be delivered by tioun-
dering painfully through drifts. Coal
was carried into thousands of places
by bag, basket or bucket-full, and the
prices were nearly doubled. Hack
drivers asked from $50 to $40 for IA
short drive. This WAS the situation of
affairs for three days and nights in
New York City, and in Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington, it was
nearly us bad. A tug-boat was sunk
by the fury of the gale at Lewes, Del
aware, and thirty-fve lives were lost.
1t is said that the losses, direct and
indirect, from this storm will foot up
in round numbers, about thirty mil
lions of dollars.

looked no more or less interested than
in any other part of the proceedings.
His counsel gave notice that he would
within the three days allowed by law
prepare motion for new trial.
