The Floods.

QUINCY, ILL.,, May 1S.-The flood pre-.
vallin5 along the Mississippi River has
never been equalled except in 1851. Ten
days ago the water reached the danger
point and since then has been steadily
rising at the rate of from four to four
teen inches daily, and the worst is TO
come. Thousands of acres are covered
with water and hundreds of families
were driven from their homes at q
minutes notice. The loss to farming
interests is simply incalculable, as the
district flooded is The richest in
the valley. On the emBank-
ment of the river, hundreds of cattle,
horses and hogs are gathered without
feed, while across on the opposite side
of the bluff are seen hundreds of men,
women and children, desolate, torlorn,
departing. Many are destitute and
many suffering for food. Communica-
ton with this side is entirely cut off.
Every road has been covered with
water. Factories and warehouses along
the river are seriously embarrassed and
large buildings are gradually under
mi oed by the rushing waters.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark, May 49, 1t has
rained necessarily the last thirty six
hours and White River, usually a
peaceful stream, is now lushing tor
rent, five miles wide.
ALMA, Ark, May 18.-The hardest
rains for many years have been falling
in Arkansas The last few days and
streams are all overlooked. Immense
cotton fields and corn bottoms are
flooded. The country is suffering a
general inundation. So quick was the
rise of the water that many people
were driven from their houses and
forced to swim for their lives. Many
women and children are standing on
the tops of houses, crying for help,
with the water ten feet deep around
them and still rising. There are Tears
that many lives have been lost.

viting the attention to new promises
based on exploded theories.
The present issues do, however, APP
peal to the patriotism and national
pride of every citizen who shall exer-
else the right of franchise next Tues.
day. 1t is pre-eminently an issue be-
tween the United States and the Old
World of labor, degraded and down
trodden by centuries of oppression.
Every reader has learned that the labor
of the old countries can earn but star
walton wages, capable of sustaining a
miserable existence in novels of wretch
edness, enforcing ignorance and insti-
eating crime; and he knows, fOrsoOth,
of the millions who have turned their
backs Oh the fatherland and come to
dispose of their labor in America, the
best market for labor in the civilized
world. Admitting all this, as it must,
the present policy of the democratic
party is to open our ports to the world
and place American workingmen-
mechanical and agricultural-in COM
petition with foreign labor. Wild eyed
theorists may construct exhaustive
arguments upon the beauties of un-
trammeled commercial intercourse be-
tween nations, but the hard and stub
born fact, and the fact fatal to their
argument in tho present case, Is. that
such intercourse creates an equality of
conditions. Between the United States
and the Old World it must of neces-
sity either degrade or elevate. 1t must
elevate the standard of foreign labor or
degrade that of the American. There
could be no compromise. There could
be but this one result: The American
laborer would be forced into cOmpeti-
ton with that of foreigners and the
work of reducing prices, enforcing ig
nOrance aud inducing crime would be
inevitable, because governt d by the I'M
bending laws of commerce. And this
is the national calamity invited by the
democratic party.
And SO we maintain that the para
mount question involved in this can
vass does not appeal to the partisan
fidelity of the voter, but rathor to his
patriotism as an American citizen. lie
will east his vote either for or against
the continued elevation and education
of the masses. The responsibility ex-
ceeds the limit of partisanship.

THE DIITIDDK

The indications as to the results of
the election next Tuesday are bright
with promise OF republican victories
and the triumph of the American idea.
Indiana is safe for Harrison. There is
no reasonable hope of overcoming the
400 democratic majority in Indiana,
because, for political purposes, certain
of her industries were not mOleSted by
the Mills bill. TO disSipate the demo-
cratic majority of 1854 in Connecticut
and to return good majority for liar,
rison in that state is confidently ex-
pected by the national republican com,
mittee. That will secure a total OF
2O3 electoral votes, or two more than is
necessary to elect. The electoral vote
of New York is absolutely necessary
to the election Of Cleveland, while 1t il
only an ornamental gem in the republ
can galaxy, and not essential to success
The registration in New York City ha!
been greatly increased over four years

the increase, but the disatfections from
Cleveland outside of the city have beel
alarming, and Harrison will go down t.
High bridge with a majority Of from
seventy to one hundred thousands. n
authority has been so bold as to est
mate the result of the city vote. 1t i
