performed this unparalleled feat before the

Richmond yesterday was able to mus
ter the Democracy in such good form as
to show that the spirit of the city has re-
covered from certain demoralizing effects
OF disaffection in the ranks Of the party.
We referred Yesterday to the very signii-
icant fac, that working men in New
York had discovered that no lndepen-
dent or new party could do anything for
them. This has been demonstrated every
where. and the moral Of it is TO follow
the fortunes of the true popular party
that represents free institutions Its
principles are in Sympathy with the rights
of all men, and in that party those
who have political grievances Will
stand the best chance. There are
two great political parties whose prin-
ciples are exactly anlagooisiic. and they
should be recognized by the main springs
of their action. The Republicans go for
centralized power and monopoly, for
ring rule, and for using the public service
for political machinery. Their long
career displays the proof of it, and the
personal characters of Blaine, herman,
HAYES. Chandler, Belknap, Robson, and
scores of others proclaim policy adverse
and totally inmical to the spirit of
equality and freedom which is the idea of
Democracy and true Republicanism.
Besides the general principles that
claim for the Democratic party the con-
flience OF the people, there are strong
local considerations that demand the
most serious thought when the voter
weighs the influence of even single
ballot There are patriotic men in the
North who, inspired with the traditions
of the war, proud Of the better part
of the history Of their party,
think that Republicanism is right;
but in the Southern States We
have seen the worst features of that
party, and it were well if men dreaded
the possibility of another look at the pic
ture. Richmond has been able TO show
a united spirit in this local contest, and
1t is an example that is set at the happy
moment when the opening of the ma
tional contest is about to call every cii-
zen to consider the risks and the results
Of the presidential fight.
We know by the story of Danyille
what President Mr.. Sherman would
make for us, and who his political min
ions would be; and We know by Mr..
Blaine's speeches and his last desperate
attempts to cheat Cleveland out of the
Presidency what apleasant man he would
be. and how tolerant and gentle would be
his office holders in the South.
Therefore, let all Democratsin Virginia
forget everything but the paramount
necessity to win the next presidential
election.

OPEN Discussion OF THE TREATY
The Republican Senators have acted
wisely in setting aside old-lime prece.
dents and voting for public discussion
of the fisheries treaty. This course has
been repeatedly urged upon them by The
1rijunc, and has finally been followed
with only one dissenting vote The
treaty has been openly discussed by the
Dominion Parliament and no evil conse.
ouences have resulted. Publicity will be
equally harmless and advantageous at
Washington. 1t will exercise a restrain
ing influence upon partzans on each side
and will educate and inform the public
on one of the great questions OF the day.
