The Democratic journals are com.
planning because President Harrison
has removed quite number of Demo.
Gratis from Office and appointed Repub-
licans in their place. These journals
seem to forget that had not the last
administration made an almost clean
sweep of the Republicans, this course
would not be necessary. When Presi-
dent Cleveland was inaugurated every
one Of the Federal Offices were filed
by Republicans, hundreds of whom
were removed without cause, and In
direct violation OF the Civil Service
Reform law, to make room for Demo-
Gratis, many of whom were totally in
competent to fill the positions. Mum
bers of Republicans, some OF whom
are old soldiers, were thrown out OF
the positions that they had honorably
filled for years, without any cause
whatever, but to make their removal
sure, charges were trumped up against
them. This was the case especially in
the Philadelphia Custom House, and
there are now few if any Republicans
under Collector Cadwalader.

The South is rapidly becoming q
formidable competitor with the North
In the production OF iron, but this is
not to be wondered at, as that section
possesses remarkable natural advan-
tages for the development of this in
dustry. Previous to the war this vast
mineral wealth of iron ore, coal and
limestone lay in the ground undisturb.
ed, as then cotton was king. Now,
however, there has been a change and
the people of Alabama and some other
sections are realizing that there is
mere wealth in the bowels of the earth
than on the surface. Still 1t cannot be
denied that Northern enterprise and
Northern capital has contributed in q
great measure in bringing about this
result. The South can produce iron
and coal cheaper than the North, con.
sequently States like Pennsylvania will
suffer by the competition, but as the
development OF these industries are
beneficial TO the greater part of thil
country there should not be any com
plant.

Minors are frequently seen in an in
toxicated condition on our streets, and
sometimes fall Into the hands of the
police. 1t is scarcely probable that the
liquor Is given to them, and therefore
the supposition must be that there are
places where they have no difficulty
in buying it. 1t is very seldom indeed
that, even when boy is arraigned be-
fore Judge Ball tor drunkenness, he
will tell where he obtained the liquor,
and we know Of one case where boy
was locked up for two days and still
refused to tell who sold him the liquor,
when the court, at the urgent request
OF the boys mother, ordered that he
should be discharged. These men, ii
men they could be called, who sell
liquor TO minors, should be ferretted
out and not only prosecuted to the ex-
tent of the law but forever deprived OF
having license, as they show by their
actions that they are totally I'm tit to be
engaged in the business.

Those who wish to vote at the com
ing city election are required to register.
II does not make any difference that
they registered last year, as according
to the law all voters are required TO
register anew before an election. The
places where the voters of each district
can register on Saturday IL, or Satur.
day 10, will be found in our local
columns to day, and will serve as a
guide to those interested. There Is no
doubt but hundreds of Republicans
will be prevented voting at this cleo
ton by the fact of the duplicates not
being ready for the collectors, but at
the same time those who have tax
receipt, should see that every other
requirement of the law is complied
with, so that there will not be any
thing to prevent their casting ballot
ct this very important election.

Connecticut is making an effort to
get rid of the grade crossings, not only
In the cities, but also in every part OF
the State. There is bill now before
the Legislature which provides Tor
their establishment, and also says that
where the road or street existed before
the railroad was laid the company must
bear all the expense OF the change, but
in places where the railroad was laid
previous TO the highway being opened
the railroad company must bear go per
cent. of the cost, the county 20 per
cent. and the State the balance. AS
may be expected this bill Is opposed
by every railroad company in Connec-
ticut, but notwithstanding the oppcsi-
ton it is probable that it will become a
law. This is nothing more than wha,
will be done sooner or later in every
State. The deadly grade crossings
must go, and the day will come when
people will wonder that they eVel
tolerated them at all.

SOME CHINESE laborers who were going
10 work in the West Indies nted to
cross the United States from San Fran
cisco to New York, whence they were to
sail for the islands. They preferred this
route because 1t was shorter and the fare
was less. They offered to furnish bond
that none of them would remain in this
country. The matter was referred to the
solicitor of the treasury, who decided that
there was nothing in the law which forbid
the passing across the continent of the
Mongolians. Secretary WINDOW, however,
thinks differently. He refused the appli-
cation, on the ground that he wanted more
time to examine the question. There will
be no occasion for the further examination,
as the Chinese have arranged with the
Canadian transportation companies to carry
them across the Dominion, thus leaving
the United States ''unpolluted," and de
priving our railway companies of several
hundred dollars. Politics and stupidity
make very bad combination.

The news from Johnstown is somewhat
startling. The flood occurred less than a
month ago, and there was such an outpour-
ing of charity as the world had never be-
fore witnessed. Everybody gave and gave
generously. Food, clothing and household
goods went forward by carloads and
arain-loads, and millions of money were
sent TO the sufferers. 1t has been esUl-
mated that fully ten millions of dollars
IN value have been contributed within the
thirty days OF the survivors of the catas-
trophe many hundreds have gone from the
Conemaugh valley and are being provide
for by friends or are earning their living
elsewhere. Now comes an appeal from the
relief committee The committee says
that all that has been contributed can only
m small degree mitigate the sufferlngs OF
the stricken people, and urges the mayors
and chairmen of relief boards to at once
forward the money in their hands.
All this will strike the country as some
what peculiar Chicago and a few other
cities have withheld their contributions
until they were assured that the money
would be properly distributed, but the
great bulk OF the gifts have gone forward.
II what has reached Johnstown is not sufii
Gent to relieve the distress so far as it can
be relieved by food, clothing and money,
the poor people are greatly to be pitied. If
what has been contributed has been con
sumed in less than a month what are the
afflicted to do! Appeals from now on may
be needed, but 1t cannot be expected that
they will bring forth the generous response
which the first calls met with. 1t is
also to be feared that the early exhaustion
of the enormous fund will excite a sus-
picion that the management has been i'll
competent, reckless or worse, for people
viii be very apt to say that SO much money
could not have been wisely and honestly
disposed Of in so short time, especially as
the state of Pennsylvania is paying the eX-
penses of clearing away the flood debris,
leaving the relief fund exclusively to the
sufferers.
OF course, if the stricken people are in
want, the country will go to their relief,
America is rich in all that is required by
the food victims, and there is no limit to
the peoples generosity and humanity; but
there will be a standing aghast at the
thought that the enormous contributions
have swallowed up with voracity almost
equal to that of the food itself.
