in the present chaos no possible means

Jefferson and Hamilton divided the
American people into two great par
ties. They formed the issues that
will remain vital as long as the con-
stitution lasts, and big as is this
country, there is no room in it for an
other party.
If DR.. Clardy wants to be Governor
let him go into the Democratic con-
vention, not as q farmer, but as Dem
ocrat, and secure the nomination, il
he can, and he may be assured that
such a nomination is equivalent to an
election. Louisville Times.
The Times can rest assured that Dr.
Clardy will never consent to lead a
third party ticket. He is lifelong
Democrat and his principles are SO
firmly rooted that those who know
him best would never suppose for a
moment that his political convictions
could ever undergo change. Upon
all party questions he is in thorough
accord with the Democracy and be-
lieves like the farmers of Tennessee
that their hope of relief lies in the
Democratic party. 1t is not known
that DIR. Clardy would consent to en-
ter the gubernatorial race, but If he
should become candidate it would
most assuredly be within the lines OF
his party. He ran for Delegate re-
Gently not as Granger or a Wheeler,
but as a representative of the agricul-
turists generally. 1t was thoroughly
understood that he was Democrat
and that he would vote the straight
Democratic ticket as he had been do
ing for forty years. He was not
placed ON the party ticket because
the body of farmers who arbitrated
the claims of the two farmer candi-
dates Democrats made
up from both parties, who asked that
the race be made non-partisan one;
and because the Democrats decided
to make no nomination for this Office.
but to let the fight come squarely be-
tween farmer candidate and the Re-
publican nominee.
The Times is in error in saying that
DR.. Clardy las been suggested as a
"Farmcrs" candidate for Governor.
He has been mentioned as a Demo
cratic candidate to be presented by
the farmers of the party and there
will be no better Democrat in the race
than he.

Here is some mighty interesting
reading from the leading Republican
paper of the Mississippi Valley, the
st. Louis Globe Democrat:
Nearly every prominent Republi-
can paper in the states west Of Ohio
is opposing that part of the McKin-
ley bill proposing to increase duties.
The views thus expressed are not con-
fined to the editors formulating them.
They represent the sentiment of an
overwhelming majority of the Re.
publican party Of the Mississippi
Valley. There are clauses in
the Mckinley bill which ought to be
discussed long enough to be recon
structed in the interest of reform and
common sense. But this sort of dis
cussion can be done better by five
minute than by two hour speeches.
This same paper has come out
squarely against the Force Bill and
advises the Republican party to drop
II not merely for the present, but for
all time.

QUICK DEATH.
Nineteen People Killed In a Rail-
road Accident.

Several kentuckians Among Them.
BosToN Aug. 20.-An accident OH
the Old Colony road yesterday after
noon was one OF the most disastrous
and distressing on record.
The train wrecked was the Wood
sholl Express. 1t consisted Of loco
motive l22, manned by Engineer Bah
cock and Fireman John Rayan, a
baggage car, a smoker, the Pullman
car Puritan and four ordinary coaches,
heavily loaded. The train had pass
ed Quincy station at 1887 p. M, run
ming about ten miles an hour, and
just beyond Presidents bridge, about
an eighth of mile toward Boston, the
engine left the track and plunged in
TO an embankment twelve feet high
and was buried upon one side.
The foremost passenger coach, No.
236, left the rails, and its foremost
truck swerved to the left and plunged
diagonally through the car floor. The
car then fell upon its left side upon
the engine. The lower forward por-
ton was torn to pieces, and of the
passengers in the car, some fifty in
number, many were thrown into
the rear corner, from which eleven
dead bodies were afterwards taken
out. The escaping steam and smoke
from the engine instantly filled the
car, SO that those within could see
nothing, either within or without.
The number of patients at the hos
pital has been reduced to ten, nearly
all of whom are considered in pre-
carious state. Mr.. and Mrs. E. B.
Bailey are considered to be in a criti-
cal condition this morning, and their
recovery is extremely doubtful. Fif-
teen others injured are in private
houses, and a number whose injuries
are slight have been lost track OF.
The latest report gives the following
as complete list of the dead, all
identified:
Mrs. Mary F. Parker, Wellesley,
Mass.

Elizabeth Fenley, aged six, and her

that he does not think she can live.
The nurse is very low, though her
condition is not serious.
Miss Eva Ballard's end came at Z
o'clock, after a night of intense suf-
fering. She had been passing the
summer at College City and was
leader in social events. She has a
brother, F. j. Ballard, at st. Angus
