Democrats first. and no Southern state
would be apt to bolt the ticket on this
ground. If one or two did, they would

election into the house, where the DEM
ocrats would have at least twenty-eight
out Of the forty-four states. With both
parties opposed to the silver measure,
it is highly probable that the third
party, on an expansive platform, would
bag quite a number of states in the
West. The mining states would pretty
surely go with them, and Kansas, Ne
braska and Minnesota. With the tariff
issue the Democrats would carry nearly
all the states III the North and
East they gained last year. Their
success would be more nearly assured
than has been the result of any election
since 1872, and that was not hopeless
until the October states had voted. But
in case the Democrats put aside Mr.,
CLEVELAND solely on account of his
views on the silver question and NOM
mate 4 free coinage man, with plat
form of that sort. then comes the con-
undrum that present data will not quite
solve. They would undoubtedly gain
in the mining and Western agricultural
states. Nevada, Colorado, and, perhaps,
California might be carried, with Mich
igan, Wisconsin and some other states
in the West; but the Eastern states that
have been coming into the fold would
all be lost. New York, New Jersey
and Connecticut would probably go with
them. The chances are that the Demo
Gratis would gain enough in the West to
save the election, but an element of
confusion would be thrown into the

SUBSIDY SCHEMES.

Although the senate committee maue
a unanimous report some time since III
favor of indorsing the $l00,000,000 of
bonds the Nicarauga canal scheme calls
for. the public mind did not accept it
with like unanimity. The opposition
has made itself so forcibly felt in con-
gress that defeat is likely to overtake
the project The commercial value of
the enterprise is not questioned, but the
experience had in indOrSing for great
schemes is not forgotten. The popular
disposition is not as favorable to foster
ing projects with the national treasury
or credit as 1t has been at times. The
efforts to subsdize ships 10 open up the
reciprocity business with Brazil and its
neighbors are being pressed by power
full interests. and are quite likely TO be
successful. 1t is insisted that this is eS-
sential to the development of the traffic
that is promised. 1t might be supposed
hat. if there were demand for Amerl-
con goods in that section, the ships tina
come direct from Rio Janeiro to New
York, with full cargoes Of coffee, sugar,
hides and other productions that this
country buys, would take back cargoes
of articles that this country has to sell
and that the people OF Brazil are in
need of. Instead of this, the ships load
with American wheat and other prod
nets. and go to Liverpool There they
dispose of the United States products
and take in cargoeS OF British manu-
features for South America. Now, if
there is demand for the productions
of this country in Brazil, the Liverpool
circuit should be omitted, and direct re
turns had with the cargoes with which
to pay for the tropical products. If
there is the traffic. ships will be glad to
take cargoes for Brazil, even if there is
no subsidy

Philadelphia Bulletin.

Philadelphia Bulletin.
Henry Watterson probably intended
no harm when he wrote his remarkable
letter to Gov. Hill. Neither did he
wien he declared that 100000 armed
men would seat Tilden in the White
house, or when he slipped into the Dem
ocratic platform of 1880 that famous
declaration for a tariff for revenue only.
The impulsiye Henry means well, but
he causes more trouble to the Demo-
cratic party with his good intentions
than all its artful mischIef-makers.
Both Tilden and Hancock felt the eff
fectS of his injudicious friendship, and
Cleveland is now coming in for his
share. Wauterson writes some of the
most readable editorials that go to the
press in this country. but nature never
intended that lie should be politician,
or to take part in that game with such
experts in the craft as David b. Hill.

ACCORDING to the statement of LII
LIAM RUSSELL in the suit against her
to recover damages because she refused
to wear tights, she valued herself at
$3.50 week in tights and $500 in long
clothes. That is difference of $3.50 a
week between her drawing power in
tights and without. 1t would be inter-
esting to know whether the proportion
is usual in the profession or there were
special features in her case.

At the camp fire of the &. a. R. vet
Grams held in st. Paul recently. while
very eloquent gentleman was reciting
the part had by the women in the Re-
bellion, and painting in the most glow
ing colors their patriotism and sacrifice,
one of the ladies included brought
down the house by the inquiry, why
they were not then allowed to vote. A
bill in the New York legislature that is
attracting attention proposes to give
the ballot to the near female relatives
of all soldiers and sailors who served in
the war of 1912, the Mexican war and
the Rebellion. 1t includes the widows,
wives and daughters, and also all wom-
en- who served in hospitals, or rendered
any military service during the war,
and provides that they shall be voters
at all elections. Ladies who wish to
vote. if this bill passes, need but marry
a veteran and outlive him. But it has
not become law yet.
