A Democratic Success.

Our dispatches yesterday contained the
welcome intelligence that the democrats on
Saturday carried nearly all of the wards
and counties in Rhode Island in which
there was no result reached in the regular
election week or so ago, and in which it
became necsss Try to have c)nd ballot.
On the day Of the regular election ex-Gov.
Davis, the democratic candidate, was in Sa-
vannah. He expected to get a plurality
of the votes, but not majority, and he
thought that the republicans would carry
the legislature. That body having author
ity to choose a governor when no guberla-
torial candidate gets majority of the
popular vote, would he said, elect repub-
lican governor.
The republicans failed to elect majority
of the members of the legislature. In fact,
neither party got a majority OF that body.
There was no choics in quito number of
the wards in the city Of Providence, and in
other places and a second ballot was or =
dered in those wards. In these second bal
lots the republicans hoped for success, but
they were not confident. Dispatches from
Providence say that they spent an immense
amount of money in purchasing votes. 1t
is alleged that in one ward in Providence
they spent 5000 They were defeated,
however, all along the lire, and Rhode
Island is to have democratic government.
There is not much doubt that dissatisfac-
ton in New England with the Mckinley
tariff bill contributed something toward
the defeat Of the republicans. New Eng
lana wants free raw materials. The &C.
ton of the ways and means committee in
making hides dutiable, has caused great dis
satisfaction among her people. The taxing
of hides viii cripple her shoe business,
which has grown to vast proportions. She
believes that with free raw materials her
manufacturers could compete in the mar
kets of the world with the manufacturers
of European countries. If the present tariff
policy of the Republican party is adhered to,
therefore, it would not be at all surprising if
Massachusetts, should follow Rhode Island
into the democratic ranks.

The Pan-American Congress.

The work Of the pan-Americi IN congress
is about done 1t is probable that the con-
gress will adjourn Tomorrow. Those dele
gates who have have ac,spesd tho invita-
ton to visit the south viii begin their tour
on Friday.
There is no doubt that the effect Of the con-
gress will be beneficial. The South Aneri-
can republics will taks a mucl greater in
teress in this country THAI they have
heretofore, and stronger effort will be
male by this country to
bring about closer trade relations
with her sister republics 10 the south of her.
1t is probable that the influences OF this
country in South American affairs will
steadily increase, and that within com =
paratively few wears it will be strong
enough to turn the South American trale
IN this direction.
The most important thing the congress
did was the recommending of arbitration
for the settlement of differences tn At may
arise between the republics of North, Cen
trail and South America, aud Hiyti. The
arbitration recommended is compulsory
AS soon as practicable after the ljou-n-
ment of the congress steps will bs taken to
get the republics to enter into a treaty with
respect to arbitration 1t is proposed that
the treaty shall cover all questions out Of
which disputes are likely TO arise. The only
ground upon which a state will have ri ght
to refuse to arbitrate is that her indie
pendence is threatened, but she Will have to
show quite satisfactorily that it is threat
ened.
There is no doubt that if the proposed
treaty is negotiated it viii put an end to wars
republics. And why should there not be such
treaty. If arbitration had bean depended
upon for the settlement Of differences during
the last half century several of the Central
and South American republics would be now
in a much better condition than they are.
Peru is but wreck of her former greatness
and moro than one other of the South
American States show the effects Of devas-
tating wars.
1t is probable, however, that il thu re-
publics should bind themselves by treaty to
submit their differences 10 arbitration this
country would have to enforce the treaty.
All the other republics would look to her
to command the peace on the frs signs of
trouble. With such a treaty, therefore.
the United States could easily bec)me the
republics. Did Mr.. Blaine have such
possibility in his mind when he suggested
the arbitration treaty!

The Chicago strika


The carpenters strike in Chica-o is be-
ginning TO have a very serious aspec:. A
very large number of man who are not
strikers, and who have families support.
are dependent upon them for wo.',. With
out the carpenters, building mus come to
a sta1dstill. What these thousands are to
do to get bread for their wives I'd chilli
rem it is impossible to say. No doubt the
great majority of them can manage to live
for a few weeks without work, because they
have a little money laid by, olshave credit,
or furniture which they can pawn, but hun
dreds, and perhaps thousands, of them have
nothing but their daily wages. and few
DAYS of idleness are sufficient to bring want
into t1eir homes.
The carpenters demand thai eight hours
shall be recognized as day, and that their
wages shall be "a day. They further de-
mand that the contractors shall recog lize
the carpenters union. 1t is probable that
the contractors and the strikers could reach
au agreement if it were not for the ques-
ton of recognizing the union The con-
tractors declare that I'm Ter no circum-
stances will they submit to the dicSation of
that organization. The carpenters are as
fully determined as the contractors and
each is waiting for the other to yield In
the meantime the contractors are losing
money and the workingmen are beginning
to fear that they will suffer for the neces-
saries of life.
There is another phase of the strike that
has not as yet received much attention It
is this If the strike continues, and there
are signs that there will be great dissatis,
faction in Chicago during the approaching
summer, congress may hesitate alb out pass
ing the worlds fair bill locating the fair in
that city. 1t may be urged that if there
were dissatisfied feeling among
worl1ingmen that would be liable
to exhibit itself frequently in strikes it
would be a mistake to attempt to erect
worlds fair buildings there. The necessity
that would exist for erecting the buildings
quickly would encourage the dissatisfisd
workingmen TO make exorbitant demands.
Indeed. it is not improbable that the fact
that it is admitted that Chicago is to have
the worlds fair has something to do with
the present strike. The strikers know that
there is a desire in Chicago that the i'm
preston shall not get abroad that there is
great discomfort among workingmen there.
and that knowledge may have induced
them to press their demands at this time.
The question whether the demands of the
strikers are just or not does not seem to be
receiving much consideration, but whether
they are OF not, it is for Cnicagos interest
to have the strike settled as soon as possible.

into the Senate which is signed by an or.
ganization which calls itself THE Wage
Workers Political Alliance of Washington,

ment of banking be established. Among
other things the petitioners ask that "a
number of bankers and representatives of
trunk line railways be summoned before
the committee and be compelled to state
under oath their reason why said bill should
not become law" 1t also wants the presi-
dents of the farmers alliance, of the
grange, the patrons of husbandry, the inter
national typographical union, the federation
of labor, the Knights of Labor, and the
wage workers political alliance to be sum-
noned to give their reasons under oath
why the bill should become a law. The
manufacturers and merchants of the thirty
cities having hegreatest population accord
ing TO the census Of 1880 are to be sum
moned for the same purpose. 1t is quite
clear that the percentage of cranks in the
country continues to be quite large.
