The National League Of Republican
clubs 10 to meet In Nashville on the
fourth Of March, and the American of
that city gives them q hearty welcome
and assures them Of hospitality, but
Sarcastically observes that they will
come into what they know to be q be-
ntghted and ignorant land, and amongst
people who are no better than savages.
!" They will come and expect to find US
singing about the carcasses of barbecued
negroes and lighting up the darkness Of
our nights with the flames Of burning
cabins. They will expect to find US
people unsafe to associate with because
Of our alleged record for robbing ballot
boxes and boldly stealing away from
frse citizens the right guaranteed by our
constitution.
The Philadelphia Inquirer gravely
denies that Northern Republicans are
under this impression and asserts that
NO one thinks the Southern people are
barbarians. 1t then makes this absurd
but characteristic assertion "The
American will not deny that killing
negroes and stuffing ballot boxes are not
inrequent acts of Southern gentlemen"
II the Inquirer would back this up
with few figures giving the num-
Der Of Southern gentlemen and
how many negroes they have
each killed 1t would be mighty
interesting reading. The statistics
might show that murders in the North,
and even In Philadelphia are much more
frequent than in the South, and as for
crimes against the ballot the Inquirer as
the mouth-piece of Quay can not claim
serious attention for its virtuous horror.
The South has no rivals Of that illus
trious triumvirate Dudley, Quay and
Wanamaker. The comment of the
Quay organ strikes the note that will be
taken up by the club managers. 1t was
evidently with the deliberate purpose of
making Q sensational demonstration of
higotry and il possible provoking some
show OF resentment that the clubs ar
hanged to meet In Nashville. The peo-
PIE OF that city should prepare to treat
The delegates with as great consideration
- they would q convention of dangerous
iunatics, for the slightest demonstration
q political antagonism,-a Democrat
mass meeting or procession, might some
hoy be miraculously transformed into
riot or Ku Klux raid by the correspon-
dent Of the Inquirer and other papers OF
its class.

In Vienna they are organizing societies
against the removal of hats In saluting
ladies or at funerals. A simple touch OF
tho brim is declared all sufficient for polite
ness and funerals are TO be lessened In
number by the refusal Of mourners
to uncover their heads. Influenza IL
supposed TO be encouraged by removing
the hat. A society might also be organized
for the closing Of mouths In the open air,
or for staying indoors altogether, for there
by the influenza might be . trife dis
couraged. Plenty Of people get sick at
funerals, but the man who sees deadly peril
in raising his hat to lady must have very

A an interesting position Of the com.
placency with which even sensible men
ars apt to deceive themselves into think.
ing that they represent the spirit Of the
people, We note the calmnen with which
the New York Saturday Globe proceeds
70 the laudation Of Samuel J. Randall as
. wandering sheep Of the Democracy
Of whom Il n uncertain whether he will
ever return or no /; but . good man, an
honest and patriotic man, with but this
one fault Of his wandering. It clearly
has not occurred to the commentator that
the wandering may have been his and
that the bell wether .may be Ran
dali. II Is self-evident to his un-
dentanding that Mr.. Randalps po-
sition on the tariff IL wholly heterodox
and entirely Inconsistent with continued
Democracy q matter to be repented Of
and abandoned and absolved for, before
the fold may be again entered.
And yet all the time Mr.. Randall, we
feel confidently assured, lies closer to the
heart Of at least the Pennsylvania Dem
ocrat than any Democrat In the state or
out Of 1t. The result of the presidential
election satisfied the party q the grave
mistake which had been made In high
quarters In seeking to ostracize lifelong
Democrats who followed the faith that
had bsen their party's upon the tariff /;
or who, rather, represented many phases
Of tariff doctrine, by permission Of the
party policy, which drew the line loosely
ak,a1k Tho se~,,o a. a ,l,, a. ,<,,, ,~,I,< svd
mother matters the definite party .tenets.
The strange idea of those who think
they represent the spirit of true De-
mooracy, that tariff taxation Is unwar-
ranted by the constitution, has itself had
no warrant in Democratic doctrine dur
ng the hundred years Of the constitu-
tion's life and 1t IL clearly quite too
late for q sound and sensible head to
announce 1t now.
We propose to enter firmly the declar-
alton that Samuel J. Randall has not
sacrificed his place In the Democratic
party by his position and his views upon
the tariff. These views were not ours any
more than is the view ours Of the rank
free trader. We have not agreed with
the argument that the tariff is no tax,
anymore than we have assented to the
foolish mistatement that the amount
Of the tariff duty Is always added to the
price paid by the consumer. But We
claim liberty Of opinion for Democrats
upon the tariff such as they have always
had and such - enabled Samuel ]. Ran
dali to spend lifetime In the leadership
and service Of the party and Grover
Cleveland to be its president.

THE reported doings of q shooting party
In West Virginia cabin need to be care
fully verified before they are recorded ~

In the house Of the latter, when Trump
casually applied disagreeable epithet TO
Snuffer and at once drew his re-
volver and fred at him. but seriously
wounded o certain Mr.. Smith, of
Virginia. Snuffer then fred at Trump.
Tho range was very short, but the
two men seem TO have despaired of hitting
each other, and to make the practice more
easy each clasped the left hand of the
other and fred two shots. Even at this
range only one ball of each took effect in
the other, and Mr.. Snuffer is not seriously
wounded. Trump died in twenty minutes
and the unfortunate Smith is expected
to die. This incredibly bad pistol practice

cannot carry on . discussion without kill
ing Smith, 1t II time to send them mis-
