Why the Democracy Of Pennsylva
MIA Is Weak.

From the Y Mail and ExTxe<-
Two days ago some positive reasons for
Republican strength in Pennsylvania were
presented in these columns. To-day let US
look At some OF the negative reasons
some Of the reasons Of special democratic
weakness
In the first place, Pennsylvania has a nor
NAL Republican majority OF near $1,000 in
Presidential years. and 10000 in of years. -
To overcome this, the democrats must get
from 1900 to 5000 Republican votes. and
poll all their own votes besides. They
cannot do it this year.
Lei it be granted, for arguments sake only
that 5000 Republicans may refrain from
voting or vote fa Paf;ison. Even that would
not elect the Democratic candidate. That
the Republican DETECTION can be greater than
that is not claimed even by the democrats
But even il it we're somewhat greater to
suppose an extreme and almost impossible
case, still the democrats would have 10 poll
every normally democratic vote to win.
There are good reasons why they cannot do
that and here are some Of them:
First-Tbe Pennsylvania democrats are
divided. The ~old liners" do not like Patti
son. They consider him Mugwump. They
believe in Wallace, and they are sore over
Wallace's defeat. They may vote the DEM
ocratic ticket but good many OF them are
very likely not to vote at all, and certainly
they viii not work.
Second-Pattison is recognized as "Bill
Scott's man" and that means q good deal
1t means that all the democrats opposed to
Scott and his methods will at least be luke
warm. Il means that thousands Of miners
who might in other circumstances vote the
democratic ticket viii vote against the can
didate Of the man who is generally consider
ed by them the very incarnation Of all that
is deiestable, the cold-blooded, hard-hearted
oppressor Of workingmen. II means that
all the democrats who do not care to see
Grover Cleveland nominated again for Pres
ident .y their party in 1892 will hesitate be-
fore they vote TO confirm the grip on their
State organization Of Cieyelands first lieu
tenant
Third-There are plenty Of Protectionist
democrats in Pennsylvania who are not
likely to forget that the Scranton Conven-
ton which nominated Psttison denounced
a protective tariff that Scott worked in Con-
gness for the Mills bill, and that Pattison is
a free trader. ], may be said that the tariff
is not State issue, notwithstanding the
contrary declarations Of the last Pennsylva-
mia democratic candidate for the Presidency
but il will have an influence on the cam
paign all the same, and more especially since
Representatives in Congress are to be chosen
at the same election with the State officers.
All things considered. The democratic de-
lection is likely to be larger in Pennsylva-
MIA than the Republican detection, and
nothing but over confidence on the part OF
The Republicans will bring their majority
much below the usual 10000.

ANOTHER DEADLY CYCLONE.
A Wide Swath cut through Massa-
chusetts Towns.

LAWRENCE. July GA disastrous cyclone
occurred at South Lawrence this forenoon.
1t is reported tina, twenty-five houses were
blown down in the neighborhood Of Spring
field street, telegraph and telephone wires
are demoralized, but particulars will be sent
as soon as possible.
Lafcr.-A cyclone of great power struck
South Lawrence, about two miles from here.
about 10 o'clock this morning. The storm
first struck Springfield street and Travelled
thence TO Salem, devastating strip twenty
rods wide 1t is estimated that one hundred
buildings have been leveled by the storm.
One man is known to have been killed out
right by falling building. and the injured
are now numbering fifty or sixty. Fire has
broken out in a number Of places in the
ruins, and the entire fire department is now
at work extinguisbing the flames. The in
jured are being removed and cared for as
quickly rs possible.
BosToS, July 26.-By the cyclone at South
Lawrence $4,000 worth of property was
destroyed and five hundred people rendered
homeless The passengers on the Boston &
Maine train. due in Boston at l0:45, got a
good view of the wrecked town as they pass
ed through. Mr.. Quinby, passenger, thus
describes the scene Of devastation The
rain had ceased and the wind had gone
down. The first thing was building blown
to the ground. and then the trees were twist
ed and uprooied This was on the left-hand
side of the track coming toward Boston.
Timber, farm wagons, and objects of all
sorts were scattered about in great confusion.
We were terrified to see mans dead body
lying under bridge at the South Lawrence
Depot. Everybody was running about in
confusion, not having chance TO tell the
extent of damage.
A special from Lawrence says the cyclone
struck the city Il cut swath over a mile
in length and five feet in width. The hos
pital is filled with Injured. while ONES
spared from the wreck are .sheitering the
homeless ones. The devastated section is
included by South Broadway and Temple
street, Market and Salem streets. AT 9:55
the awful visitation came The wind was
east. The rain was falling heavily, when
suddenly the heavens became aglow with a
bright, white light In n moment the wind
shifted to the west Heavy black clouds
shot from behind the western hills high in
to the sky. and then the thick mass parted
Down shot black streaks fiom the murky
mass and in a moment the crash came
were crushed like the shells of
eggs, whole houses were lifted from tie cell
lars and terror seized the dwellers. The
buildings in the vicinity were ali Of wood,
pretty, cosy homes of employees in the mills,
and their ruin was complete.

The Sentiment of the House
Against Biaine's Plan.

WASHINGTON, July .27.-The Ptiitude OF
Republicans in the House and Senate on the
reciprocity feature, proposed by Secretary
Blaine will not be clearly defined until the
proposed amendments to the Tariff bill re-
lating TO the question have been discussed.
They will rot be reached for some time yet
and unless adopted in some form by the
Senate they will not reach the House for dis
cussion. 1t appears that the full weight of
the Republican majority Of the Ways and
Means Committee is az ainst il and this nat
urally handicaps any organization of Repub-
lican members of the House 70 make an is
sue on the proposition.
Representative Gear, OF Iowa. a Republi-
can member of the Ways and Means Com
mittee, said To- night that no one OF the eight
Republicans on that committee approved
Mr.. BIaines idea, and even il it were ap-
proved il was too late now 10 incorporate it
in = bill prepared with the understanding
that the reciprocity scheme was TO be feat
ure Of IT, The same views are known to be
entertained by Major Mckinley. though he
has uniformly declined TO make a statement
for publication without discussing the mer-
its Of the idea The sentiment in the House
is that il IS inpracticable at this time to un-
dertake tariff revision on a new basis, and
that il is therefore unwise to discuss it at
this session.
