SENATOR CARLISLE ON THE
OUTLOOK.

Senator Carlisle, of Kentucky,
in a recent interview expressed
his views in regard to the politi-
cal situation. In his opinion,
unless the situation changes very
much, any competent and honest
democrat nominated for Presi
dent in 1892 can be elected. He
does not think that the third
party will prove an important
factor in the coming national
contest, even should it determine
to nominate a candidate. The
! most it could accomplish would
he to throw the election into the
House, in which event a demo-
crat would certainly be chosen.
Mr.. Carlisle said Mr.. Cleveland's
letter in opposition to the free
coinage of silver excited consider
able feeling against him in some
parts of the country and very
considerably increased his popu-
larity in some other parts, but
whether in the end it will prove
advantageous or disadvanta-
gcOus remains to he seen. cit
would" says Mr.. Carlisle, "be ex-
ceedingly bad policy topermit the
silver question to become the par
amount onein campaign of 1892.
1t is question upon which there
are honest differences of opinion in
the party, while there are other
questions of equal or greater impor-
lance upon which we are thoroughly
united, and think we had better
concentrate our strength instead of
dividing it. Mr.. Carlisle predicts
the denomination of President Har-
rison by the republicans.

HOW IS TAMMANY Z?

Coz. gressmen Mills, Crisp and
Mcmillan, the three most conspic-
uous candidates for the speaker
ship in the next House of Repre-
sentatives, have accepted an in
vitation to attend the Fourth of
July meeting of Tammany Hall
in New York. They areexpected
to meet in Washington on the
End of July, where they will be
joined by a committee of Tam
manyites and escorted TO New
York in appropriate style. Each
of the gentlemen named is ex-
pected to make a speech and by
this means go into a sort of
competitive examination for the
support of Tammany All of
them are good takers and it is
doubtful which one will make
the best impression. An enthusi-
astic Tammany man, who is a
member of the committee to do
escort duty to Messrs. Mills
Crisp and Mcmillan, was in the
city of Washington Saturday
and to a reporter predicted
that Congressman Flower would
surely carry off the gubernatorial
nomination. With regard to the
national ticket in 1892, he said
Tamm1ny is not in favor of
Cleveland's nomination, but if he
is selected as the party's stand
ard-bearer he will receive the cor
dial support of the wigwarm and
the full strength of it's braves.

In a speech before the CONNER
ciai Club of Providence, r. l.,
Saturday night, ex-President
Cleveland exhibited his usual
plain spoken directness and ut
tered some wholesome truths.
His hearers were business and
professional men, republicans
as well as democrats, and Mr..
Cleveland did not hesitate to tell
them that business men are too
often derelict on the one hand in
sustaining from activeparticipa-
ton in politics, and on the other
hand in exhibiting pernicious
activity'in seeking speciallegisla-
ton to forward particular inter
ests.

SOUND COMMERCIAL SITUATION.
A. G. Dun & Company's Weekly Trade
Review.

Signs of improvement in business
grow more frequent and distinct,
though there is nothing like a radical
change as yet. The hesitation which
has prevailed during the year gives
way but slowly to increased conf
dence, the more slowly because of a
few failures in woolens ut Philadel-
phia, and in leather and shoes at the
East. Yet the soundness Of the COM
mercial situation is generally recog-
nized, and the hesitation which re-
mains is rightly attributed mainly
to uncertainties regarding the de-
mand for gold from Europe and the
financial situation there. Hence dis
patches announcing the settlement
of difficulties which have been hang
ing over the London market, and
which were supposed to affect one or
more houses having large interests
in this country, are regarded with
satisfaction. While gold continues
to leave England for Russia, the
banking institutions of western Eu-
rope are we'll supplied, and in this
country, Treasury disbursements
have been enormous The one point
of danger is still the exceedingly
strained condition of credits abroad
on account of past disastrous specu-
lations.
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the
last seven days, as reported to R. G.
Dun & Co., the Mercantile Agency, by
telegraph, number, for the United
States 2O3, and for Canada, 81, or a
total of 234, as compared with Il to-
tai of 253 last week, and pa the
week previous to the last. For the
corresponding week of last year the
figures were 2O2, representing 17s
failures in the United States, and "a
in the Dominion of Canada.

RECORDS oFTHE CoNFEDERACY.
Miss Rondthaler Enjoys a Visit to the
White HOuse-Other News.

WARRINGTON, June 3O.-In the mis-
cellaneOus division of the Treasury
Department there is force of clerks
at work on the records of the South
ern Confederacy captured and taken
to this city after the surrender at
Appomatox. These records are be-
ing copied and indexed for the use of
the Court of Claims. A great many
claims from the south have been filed
from time to time, and If the loyalty
of the claimant to the Union can lie
established by any evidence in these
records, the claim will be promptly
allowed and paid, if not, the claim
will have many delays and slim
chances of success before the tribunal
which sits here to adjust such mat
] tiers There were great many I'm
ion men in North Carolina, especially
in the Western part of the State, and
If any one who sees this, should have
claims before the government, and
proofs of his Union sentiments he
would do we'll to send them on at
once.
Miss Rondthaler. of Salem, spent
Saturday morning in the Corcoran
Art Gallery and in the White House.
She enjoyed the new paintings and
statuary in the gallery and a visit to
the private corridor and suite of par
lors, including the Blue Parlor in
which ex-President Cleveland was
corridor was decorated by Tiffony,
of New York, and is very handsome.
She also saw the portrait of EXPIRES
ident Cleveland which was recently
hung in the White House, which,
however, does not do that distin
guished gentleman justice.
The New York Times of Sunday
says significantly: Senators Cor
man and Brice and Col. Lamont
dined together at the Manhattan
Club the other night, and ever since
then the air has been full of rumors
of an important political conference.
There is nothing so extraordinary
about a little dinner party of these
three personal as well as political
friends. Scarcely a week passes but
just as important persOnages in the
political world get together around
q private dinner table in either the
Manhattan or Union League Club.
Like most other clubmen of their cut,
Messrs. German, Brice, and Lamont
are good livers, and it by no means
follows because they CHANGED to dine
together that the fate of the Demo-
cratic party hung in the balance dur
ing their dinner. In fact, the chances
are that had they had an important
political conference on hand they
would not have selected SO conspicu-
Gus meeting place as the Manhat-
tan Club. Col. Brice may hold Soon
ferences" with himself and others in
public sometimes, but that's because
he is unsophisticated. Lamont and
German are too old birds to do any
thing of the Sort" and yet it is high
ly probable that this trio of influen-
tial Democrats discussed the superior
popularity of Grover Cleveland with
the people as a Presidential candi-
date.
This morning the Critic, an even
ing paper which has existed here
spasmodically for several years, was
sold at auction. 1t is rumored that
it was bought by the Evening Star,
the richest paper here, which thus Sc
cures important press franchises and
keeps other papers out of the field.

The New Haven billiard proprie-
tor, in secureing the debt which
was due him by Yale Senior by
attaching his diploma just before
it was to to be delivered, showed
himself to be a man who had a
shlewd insight into human
nature. If the attachment had
been restricted to the students
trunk or his books he might have
gone off without paying his bill,
but as it was his diploma, the
one thing which about that time
he considered the most valuable
property in the world, he will no
doubt settle his bill, contented to
lose his money if he thereby can
gain his sheepskin.

PRINCIPLES, NOT MEN.

1t has been one OF the recog-
nlzed attributes of the Democratic
party that it's support has been
given to principles, not men.
Hero worship is not consistent
with the great object. of demo
cracy, which is to exalt all the
people and maintain their rights.
Whatever tends to magnify one
man above his fellows except as
an agent in discharge of delega-
| ted functions for the good of all,
is repulsive to democratic senti-
ment.
! The cry, therefore says the
Richmond Times, that Cleveland
is greater than his party has
been raised by politicians who
wish to damage him as a posi-
BILE presidential candidate in the
estimation of his party.
If the professional politicians
did all the voting Cleveland's
chances for the next presidency
would not be first rate.
These gentlemen don't like him.
He is not sufficiently aff;lble, and
he is distinctly stubborn. He
does not take kindly to trades
and seems to have no back-stair
business in his methods of adj
ministratiOn.
He rather regards the interests
of all the people who have chosen
him to represent them, than the
importunate wishes of office
holders and office-seekers who
represent themselves aboveevery-
body. He is not the kind ofman
to suit the spokesman of any par
ty. And the warfare on him to-
day is due not to any want of
fidelity to the people, but to his
lack of pliancy to those who act
as if the government was institu-
ted to give places to a favored
few.
Whether Cleveland lives or dies,
is nominated or rejected, the
united democracy will continue
on it's great mission. But the
people, having no other object
than a constitutional govern
ment, fearlessly, honestly and
economically administered on
democratic principles, feel that it
is but natural to ''praise the
bridge that carried them over"
and to acknowledge that those
qualities which in q President
would make our government re-
spected abroad and efficient at
home, have been found in Grover

Governor James E. Campbell
and the Hon. Lawrence T. Neal
are competitors for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Governor
of Ohio. Mr.. Neal seems to be
stronger in the cities and Gov
ernor Campbell in the country
districts. The Hamilton county
Democracy is bitterly opposed to
the Governor and has elected
Neal delegates.
We have great respect for
Campbell. He has shown himself
to be a man ofcourage and convic-
tions, but the question is asked,
would it be wise to nominate
Campbell in the faceof the Hamil-
ton opposition. We believe that
Campbell can carry the State and
the matter of local dissentions
will strengthen him in the end.

The protective tariff advocates

The protective tariff advocates
propose to have a great gather
ing at Asheville July 22nd. The
attendance will be almost entire
ly of white republicans from the
western part of the state. Be
tween these and the eastern re-
publicans there is very little
unanimity just now. The cause
is the negro. The western repub-
licans loathe him and have caesed
to tolerate him. They want a
party of their own, a white re-
publican party, no matter if it is
weak; anything to eliminate the
negro.

The railway commissioners are
at work now on the assessment
of all the railway property in the
State for taxation. The greater
part of the summer will be de-
voted to this. 1t is entirely new
work, requiring special care, and
will necessitate the presence in
Raleigh of the officials of most Of
the roads. It will reopen all the
questions OF taxation of roads
claiming exemption, and it is
believed will increase the States
revenues.

1t is a singular phase of the
National contest that Virginia
enters into it as q factor. The
Republican managers from Clark
son down make hopeful calcnla-
tions upon breaking the solid
South in order to win next year,
and they all turn to Virginia as
the wedge that is to split the
solidity. Furthermore, it is
amusing to note the dense igno-
rance of the Republicans with re-
gard to the political status OF
