They Drew Blanks.

Our Washington dispatches stated, a day
or two ago, that the South Carolina poll
ticians had gone home, having become sat
isfed that they could get nothing from thi:
administration. 1t is probable that the
Republican party has lost nothing by the
refusal Of the President to appoint them to
offices. The mosL Of them are doubtless re-
publicans for revenue, and not from princi
pie. They do not care what becomes Of
their party 50 long as they have Offices.
Robert Smalls is one of the disappointed
ones. He wanted to be collector at Beau
fort, and be made a strong plea for that
office The President, however, gave him
the cold shoulder, and now, doubtless, he is
wondering whether the SUCCESS of the Re-
publican party last November benefited
him in any respect.
No doubt the President has taken Small,'
correct measure. He recognizes the fact
that Smalls calls for nothing in South Caro-
lima. He is not 10 favor with the whites or
the blacks, and in his own county he would
find it difficult to be elected constable.
He was not true to his party in the last
congressional election, and it was charged
that he made trade at that time by which
he hoped to advance his political fortunes.
he has never been any benefit to his party
iu South Carolina, and the President is
wise in not trusting him. If 1t be trus that
the President intends to appoint to Office in
the south only such men as will tend to
make the southern Republican party more
respectable, and to get rid Of men of the
Smals type, the Republican party stands q
better chance Of gaining a foothold in the
south than it has had at any previous
time.

Gone Where He B,longs.

Some of the democratic journals that are
in harmony with the Republican party on
the tariff issue are telling the editor OF the
Athens (renn.) Post that he made mistake
by abandoning the Democ attic party, and
joining the Republican party for no other
reason than that he believed with the Re-
publican party that there should be no
reduction of the tariff. They tell him that
be ought to have remained in the Dsmo-
cratic party, and through his newspaper
taught the doctrine of protection just as it
is held by the Republican party.
The Tennessee editor was too honest to do
anything Of hat sort He said that he be-
lieved that the tariff principles taught by
the Republican party we're right, and that
they would d. more to build up the south
than the tariff doctrines of the Democratic
party. The Tennessee editor did exactly
right. He followed his convictions. He
would never have felt at ease in the Demo-
cratic party. He would have been conscious
of ailing under false colors.
Of course the Tennessee editor is prepared
to see the people taxed to produce a big sur
plus to be squandered in ways that the re-
publican politicians will point out. He will
applaud commissioner of pensions Tanner,
when that official makes decisions that add
thousa lds of names to the peasion roll and
increase the pension burden to the extent OF
millions of dollars annually He will ap-
prove all sorts of fextravagant schemes which
arepublican congre S may agree upon to
get rid Of the surplus, and he will regard
with pleasure the for nation of trusts, like
the bagging trust, which have for their OBJ
ject the robbing Of the people
The Tennessee editor has gone where he
belongs He has no business in the party
of the people-the party which aims to re-
duce tax9tion so that the revenues will iu.t
meet the exuenses of the government when
economically a1minstered-a party that
holds out helping hand to the poor rather
than the rich, and that seeks to rescue the
farmers of the country from the grasp Of
ths monopolies which the tariff fosters.
The Democratic party of Tennessee will
survive the loss of the editor OF the Post.

The Wreck Takes Fire After the
Victims Have Eeen Removed.

PHILADELPHIA, Get, s5-The fast OK
press train from Shamolin on the Read
ing railroad due here at $50 o'clock,
Monday morning, ran into coal train
in the West Mannyunls tunnel and n
frigntful smash-up resulted. A number
of persons are reported killed. The cars
caught fire and are now burning in the
tunnel
The scene of the accident is at West
Manayunk, suburb of this city, about
ten miles distant 1t seems that the
ShamoISin express, due here at $3.50 and
carrying large number of passengers,>
was the i'll fated train. This train usu-
ally leaves the upper coal regions on
Monday mornings loaded with work
men and laborers who are employed
along the line and who take advantage
of their sundays rest to go home on
Saturday nights and spend tho holiday
with their families
The story of the crush is not yet in
town, but from rumors and scraps of in-
formation received By wire from points
on the road north of the accident, it
would appear that tho passengers en-
tered the tunnel at West Manayunl at
regular speed and ran into coal train.
The first rumor to reach the city was to
the effect that eight persons had been
killed and number injured. This was
followed later by the more alarming
statement that not less than twenty
eight lives had been lost, and later still
the figures arose to the appalling total
of fifty-two killed.
Inquiry at the Office of the road at
Broad and Callow Hill streets, met with
no satisfaction whatever.
