A VOICE FROM the TOME.

Mr.. Stevenson. the Democratic candidate
for Vice President, thought it possible TO
make political capital by assailng the policy
of reconstruction adopted by the Republi-
can party. Mr.. Stevenson says: with
some Of the States the period of rec0nstruc-
ton was but another name for misrule; for
the political ostracism of the white race,
for the robbing of the people already i'm
pOveTished by war. for outrages upon the
rights of property and the people. so mon
strous as now almost TO challenge belief;
in a word, for all that was loathsome and
all that was offensive in that which was
called government in many of the Southern
States can be summed up in one word
reconstruction
The above is not printed as a model of
composition. Mr.. Stevenson doubtless sue
ceeded In making his purpose more clear to
the 10000 Republican postmasters, many Of
them old soldiers. whom be displaced while
acting as headsman for Political Service
RefOrmer Cleveland But the discerning
readers will perceive that Mr.. Stevenson
intended to say thst the Republicans made
botch of reconstruction. partly from evil
design and partly from inability to do
better. Against Mr.. Steyenson's opinion
there are the facts of history. What other
people have been subjugated by force
of arms and reconcled to the Gov
ernment that subdued them in less
than one generation? There are men
now in the South but little past the prime
of life who fought on the Southern side. and
are now glad they were beaten. They are
thoroughly reconstructed, and if the United
States should need their services before old
age comes upon them, their services Will be
volunteered. What miserable BourbOnism,
therefore, for man either North or South
to declare the policy which produced such
results baTbarous failure.
The trouble with Stevenson is that he has
the sO-called force bill on the brain. He
imagines that if the /, 800 600 colored voters
are protected in their lawtn right TO vote
they will dominate the s. 600 of white
voters. This belief on his part is a political
necessity. Knowing, doubtless. that the
Democratic party could not win on the tariff
issue, Stevenson has tried his hand at Great
ing another. The South, even in the heart
Of the black bel. ridicules the Stevenson
Issue. AS an evidence of their influence
over the colored voters, the whites can point
TO the recent election in Alabama in which
the cOlored voters saved the State 10 the
regular Democratic candidate. The latest
dispatch from Montgomery says: "Jon es,
the straight-out Democrat, will have less
than 10000 majority in the State, obtained
in six counties In the black belt" Why
should the South object TO the col0red vote
IL 1t can be polled for their candidates?

Sc, 100000 FOR THE FAIR.

In somewhat ungraceful way the House
has made an appropriation Of So. 50o. 900 for
the Worlds Fair, and the Senate has passed
the House bill. This closes controversy
which has not been credisable to the party
In power in the House. At first the oppo-
sition to an appropriation was made on
high constitutional grounds. At the end
the fight was over a sum of money. The
constitution is as badly shattered by a
S2,5o0.00o appropriation as it would have
been by one twice as large. One New York
member showed how difficult it is even for
an intelligent Democrat to take natural
view of an enterprise. Probably if the
fair had been located at New York instead
OF Chicago Amos Cummings would have
been on the other side Of the appropriation
proposition

OUR FRUIT In LONDON.

Londoners do not seem to be prepared to
pay California prices for fruit with freight
money added, about doubling the home
price. The Majestc's cargo is said TO have
arrived in good condition. but the English
dealers did not think that refrigerated fruit
could be handled with profit At this sea-
son England produces considerable fruit of
q quality inferior to California fruit but
good enough to keep the people from being
positively fruit hungry. 1t is possible also
that the English people are little sore over

afraid to hold railroad securities upon which
there is faint OF mismanagement. We
judge, however, that the drift of gold to

spent itself, for we notice that the market

THE GOLD DRIFT.

Some discussion is taking place in Eastern
journals relative to the heavy shipment of
gold to Europe latterly. The cause Of
the gold drift is unquestionably the
fear that the United States will ultimately
become a silver country. The struggle to-
ward the free coinage of silver has alarmed
Europeans, hence those persons In Europe
who hold cur railroad bonds. the interest on
which is now paid in gold, fear that the

The ball game between the Mercantiles

noon was quite closely contested one,
and finally resulted in victory for the
local nine by score of 7 to 5. The Local
team presented its new battery, Clune
and Sheehan of the Allegheny college
team, and their work was frst-class.
Clune is swift pitcher with the neces-
sary curves, and the Mercantiles failed to
make any great showing at the bat. Fifteen
of their number struck out. Sheehan was
not quite up to expectation, and his throw
ing to second was not of the best. The
playing of the rest of the nine was good
considering. Only eight inning were
played, as the New Haven boys had to
catch the 6:22 train.

The Hour says a South Norwalk man,

One day recently he became the lucky pos

So, three twos and seven ones. On his

his wife having neglected to sew up hole
in his pocket. He discovered his loss as
he was getting ready to retire, and al
though it WAS midnight and dark as pitch,
he lighted lantern and sailed forth on a
hunt for his lost treasure. Inch by inch
he went over the ground which he had
treaded so joyously several hours before,
but without avail, and he was about to
abandon the search when he heard q
wagon approaching. The occupant, at

and as he moved it nervously back and

held the lantern aloft and by the aid of its

roll of dirty green paper. Further inves-
tigation disclosed the fact that it was the
identical wad of money of which he was
in search. 1t had been caught In a little
crack in the tire and carried right into the
owners hand.
