A Republican Tries to Collect Evidence on
Which to Base Contest, and Is Prevented.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, March 15.-In the
Fourth congregressional district, at the
late election, Lewis w. Turpin Democrat)
was declared elected. Notice of contest
was promptly filed by j. V. McDuffy, the
Republican nominee. The taking of testi-
mony began several days ago. and McDuffy
went into Wilcox county for that purpose.
In Camden. the county seat, he was waited
upon by three men who ordered him to
leave the county in forty-eight hours, they
claiming to represent the Democratic ex-
ecutive committee of the county. McDufy
agreed to leave as ordered. Before the ex-
piration of the forty-eight hours the best
Democratic white citizens of Wilcox coun
ty held mass-meeting and passed resolu-
tions that such action was not sanctioned
by the executive committee or the white
people of the county. McDuffy asked if
they would guarantee him against injury
would not, he very promptly left. The
affair has e1ated the Republican element of
the State beyond expression. They claim
that it will give McDuffy the election.

Women Ought Not to T&i..

l think the women who have been en- gagged in the struggle for equal rights have done some good for women in the direction of obtaining equal wages for equal work. There has also been for many years a tendency among women in our country to become independent a desire to make their own living-to win their own bread. So many husbands are utterly useless, or worse, that many women hardly feel justified in depend ing entirely on husband for the future. They feel somewhat safer to know how to do something and earn a little money themselves.
 If men were what they ought to be, few women would be allowed to labor that is to say, to toll. It should be the ambition of every healthy and intelli- gent man to take care of, to support, to mako happy, some woman. As long as women bear the burdens of the world the human race can never attain any thing like splendid civilization. There will be no great generation of men until there has been great generation of women. For my part, am glad to hear this question discussed-glad to know that thousands of women take some in terest in the fortunes and in the mis- fortunes of their sisters.-Robert G. h. gerSoll.

SUBMARINE WARFARE.

Secretary Whitney has done great deal toward the reconstruction of the Yankee navy, as attested by the cruisers added to our naval forces during his administration, but there is probably nothing that is likely to add more eff ciency to our strength on the water than the submarine torpedo boat which he not long since of being allowed to inspect submarine craft carrying powerful gun, and our experience impressed us very strongly that in submarine war fare is one of the best elements of de- fense that this or any other country can have against foreign enemies.
 Submarine craft, but few of which are in existence, have the power of diving and rising at will and going certain distance under water. It has not, how ever, been determined yet how far under water the craft may go and retain their working power. Many boats can go all day, and perhaps all night added, with a mere curved back surmounted by a
 
 distance a boat can go with nothing showing. That is to say, the real prob lem in submarine warfare is to secure boat that can sink miles distant from the enemy and guide herself under water to that enemy. A boat that will go under the water, without once show ing itself, for specified distance which distance need only be such that it could not have been detected by an enemy when it went below the surface-will be a great success, whatever its speed or slowness as a surface boat. It Is a matter of minor consequence even ill what time it accomplishes this distance wholly beneath the water. To secure such boat is Secretary Whitney's ambi- tion, and the Columbia iron works of Baltimore declare their ability to realize it. The bid of this company makes a | guarantee of nine knots submerged, with a sub-surface endurance for an hour while thus running, which is re- garded as more than could have been hoped for by the most eager advocates l of submarine boats and which if it can be realized will place our government far in the van of this important branch of naval warfare.
 The Americans are an ingenious and enterprising people, and though sustain ing in times of peace no great and ex pensive naval establishment we have always, in all our wars, been able to hold our own upon the seas. And it Is probable that if Prince Bismarck or any Of the foreign potentates should presume | to tread on the tail of our coat we would quickly find ourselves in condition to cope with him. But the precaution of preparing ourselves in advance, and es- pecially when it is assured that Blaine is to have the state portfolio, will raise Secretary Whitney many degrees in the estimation of cautious people. When he lays down his portfolio as secretary of the navy, he will carry with him no greater credit than will spring from his attention to and improvement of our capacities in submarine warfare.

PARNEIL,S VICTORY

Charles Stewart Parnelf has practically won his case against the London Times Whatever may be the decision given by Justice Hannen and his associates, the public has already acquitted Parnell of the crimes charged against him. If any one thing has been made evident in the last few days it is that the letters which were depended upon to associate the Irish leader with those who have found in dynamite the most effective weapon against British oppression have been forgeries, and that the man who forged, or at least had hand in forging them, is the precious scamp who is now wrig- gling under Sir Charles Russells skillful cross-examination. And yet withal the friends of justice and Irish home rule have little faith that Parnell will actually receive the vindication to which he is clearly entitled. British courts that have Irish interests in hand are not built that way.
 From the beginning it was clearly evi- dent that MT Parnell was innocent of
 
 in the Times articles on "Parnellism and Crime" and the peculiar course of the Times in trying to break down the Irish leaders case by bankrupting him and the irish people who sympa- thized with him lost it much of the con- fl lence that the tories were dis posed at first to place in its assertions. The testimony given this week by Me- Donald, Houston and Pigott-as precious a trio of simpletons and rascals as ever trod Gods earth-was the last straw, and now even the most malignant of the Irish haters are beginning to realize that every Irish agitator is not horned demon or reckless dynamiter. Such evidence as that on which the Times built it's fiimsy structure against Parnell might be expected to deceive none but those who were prejudiced, and it looks very much as if the Times depended on British hatred of Ireland to give the color of truth to its charges. Its hope has been blasted, it's scheme has miscarried, and Parnell stands before the world to-day glorified and triumph ant in the vindication of his personal honor and noble patriotism,
 The cause of home rule for Ireland it now seems certain must receive incalcu- liable benefit from the collapse of the Times case.s And the result is another proof of the wonderful sagacity of the man which prompts him to courses that seem ill-advised and injudicious to his

China as a Manufacturing Center.

Ii Hung Chang is reported as saying: Before half century has passed China will be covered with railways as with a net. Its immense mineral resources will be developed. It will have rolling mills and furnaces in many parts of the country, and it is not impossible that it may do the manufacturing for the world" The viceroy is exceedingly sanguine, but there is no immediate reason for Ameri- can and European manufacturers being frightened at the prospect of the compe- tition of the Flowery Kindom. A place once lost is rarely recovered. The Chinese were once the leaders of the world, and fell behind in the race. It is not likely that they will again take the lead. Turkey was once in advance of Europe. Rail way World.
