able case of political amenity has
just come to light. Santa Barbara
county republicans and democrats
have long severally contended that
it was unfair to the other end of the
district to hold every county con-

something will help the town and all

FEARS FOR THE SOLID SOUTH
The Tariff Issue Cutting Away the Dem
ocratic Strength in Georgia

From the Augusta, Ga. Chronicle Dem. J.
The Democratic party in the South will
make great mistake if it attempts to draw
a rigid raritf line in its coming conventions
To win the Presidential election. the South
must continue solid. A Solid South will not
be secured on the strict letter of the Presi-
dents tariff message any more than it could
be maintained by close adherence to the
Presidents silver message. The South goes
into the present campaign without her usual
confidence or compactness variety of
causes has brought about this condition and
will, if not counteracted, imperil the success
of the party.
The condition of West Virginia. Virginia
and North Carolina has been doubtful In
Kentucky the outlook for the party is far
from bright. The victory last year was too
close TO be comfortable. The corruption
proven among high State officials, and the
losses to the State by the ahsconding Treas
urer nave placed the party on very shaky
ground. Tennessee has always been close
State, and party divisions render the re-elec-
ton of the Democratic candidate a matter of
real solicitude. Take Louisiana A hot
fight in the State Democracy has left bad
sores to be healed.
The solidity of the South is seriously
threatened. Unless every State can be brought
solidly back 10 the line, the Democrats can
not win the Presidency. Ii is going to be a
close rub for the Solid South and New York.

A Condo mnstiOn Of the resident.
From the lhany Inurpal ]

1t (the last years verdict was an emphatic
Endorsement of President Cleveland's won
derful Administration, according to the
Democrats at that time, and another proof
of its unbounded popularity with the people.
Nothing that Republican newspapers could
say would avail TO stop or even TO check the
Overlooking torrent of Democratic gush over
the great victory" in Rhode Island year
ago, and the senseless elatter made by the
"unterrified' had to be endured.
But if the election of last year was an
approval and Endorsement of President
Cleveland's Administration up to that time,
what shall be said of yesterdays result:
What can be said, in fact, except that the
Presidents more recent utterances have dis
gusted and alarmed the friends of protection
to American labor and industries, and shown
them the necessity of sinking all minor diff
ferences i'll face of the great danger con-
fronting them!

AN IMPORTANT coMxUNIcA.
TON.
American Commerce in South America.


The following plain statement of facts
should cause to Jingle with shame those
who now have in control the National
Government:
An Open Letter to Members Of Congress.
NEW YORK, March %, lsss.
Dear Sirs.-I have been told that it was
useless to address you regarding our ocean
mail service TO South America; that a ma
jority Of members knew little and cared less
about the honor and interests of the United
States in the southern half of the continent
of America that you were so absorbed in the
tariff, the Presidential election or other party
questions that you could not do anything for
our commercial marine, even to the extent
of fair pay for mail service. | am unwilling
to believe this. | believe that Members of
Congress, as whole, are sincerely DESTROYS
of advancing the interests of our country,
and if they but understand tina, all that was
asked in aid of mail service to South Ameri-
ca was the application of the same principle
which governs our postal service on land,
VIZ paying " hat the service is worth without
regard to the amount of postage earned on
the route, there would be no delay in auth
orizing it. At present, the Postmaster Gene
raj is limited so he cannot pay more than the
postage earned. On new route this is of
course small, but the service may be very
costly and valuable. The pony express and
oil yH.a Et.itt and
Thousands of mail routes today receive from
ten to fifty times much for carrying the
mail as the postage earned upon them.
Bills are now pending in Congress which
will permit the payment of fair compensation
for mail service 10 South America. 1t has
been suggested to me that these would be an
tagonized by American lines to other
countries. | cannot believe this for if this
principle proves successful in benefitting our
trade with South America, surely Congress
will be willing to extend it to lines connec-
ting the Uuited States with other countries
am sure it would pay our country to do this
at once, but if it cannot be done then it
should be tried with South America, and we
should be governed by the result.
| am serving as President of the L. S. &
Brazil Mail S. S. Line without pay, because
| would like to see one American steamship
line successful. 1t is just earning expenses !;
there is no water in its stock, and vet it has
paid no dividends. 1t would have to stop if
it not for the $50 900 Brazil pays us an
nually for mail service. Our Government,
representing sixty millions of rich and pros
porous people, rendered us about s., 0O0-a
sum about equal to the boat service required
to receive and land the mails We declined
to receive this petty sum, although we have
continuously carried the mails all the same,
and prefer to do it for nothing rather than
accept less than what the service is worth
believe that when Congress understands
this that the Post Master General will be
authorized to pay us what is right both for
past and future service; and commencing to
your attention some facts stated in the en-
closures, remain,
Respectfully yours,
