The Alabama Factions.

The war between the two factions Of the
Democratic party Of Alabama shows no di-
minutlon Of bitterness. 1t would not be of
much consequence outside OF the state If
1t were certain that the defeated faction
would acquiesce in the decision reached at
the primaries. The Indications now are,
however. that IL the Kolbites are beaten
they will run Kolb as an independent can
didate for governor
Gov. Jones has made good chief execu-
tive and is entitled to denomination. The
admirers OF Kolb, however, do not think he
was fairly beaten in the last campaign for
the gubernatorial nomination, and they are
so bitter against Gov. Jones that IL he car
ries off the nomination again they may be-
come merged in the third party.
Primaries have been held in quite a num-
Der Of the Counties and thus far Gov. Jones
has nearly third more delegates than Mr..
Kolb. 1t looks, therefore, as II he would
have a majority of the nominating conven-
tion.
There Is some comfort In the thought,
however, that the sta 10 election occurs In
August. II the party should be divided at
that time it might get together before the
national election in November 1t would
be regrettable if the differences of the
factions growing out of state issues should
prevent them from uniting in support of
the national democratic ticket.

Work On the Naw Navy.

The fact that the naval appropriation bill
reported 10 the House on Monday carries
only S23. .726, SOB, about IS 81. .SSl less than
che naval appropriation bill reported at the
second session Of the last congress. does not
indicate an intention 70 stop work on the
new navy. On the contrary, the building
Of the navy is to be continued. The naval
committee. however, does not believe in ap-
propriating more money for new ships than
can be used, and it seems that il is impossi-
bic 10 get the armor plates for the armored
ships already ordered before 1894. The ma
val committee says, in its report, that il is
in favor Of voting all the money necessary
TO complete the ships that are now being
constructed, and it considers is advisable
to build eight or nine battleshipsin in addition
TO those now in the hands Of the builders.
There are three of these partly completed
ships, but there has been no delay in their
construction for want Of money. There is
large amount OF the appropriation made
by the last congress that is unexpended.
The naval committee is of the opinion
that another cruiser like the New York-s
commerce destroyer it is called-should be
built as soon as possible. Vessels Of this
kind would be of Immense value in the
event Of trouble with nation having a
large merchant marine.
There is very little opposition to the ap-
preparation of money for the new navy,
though the opinion prevails to very con-
siderable extent that so many improvements
in the construction Of war vessels are being
made that it would not be wise to push for
ward the construction of the new navy as
if there was an urgent necessity for It.
Some Of the costliest OF the armored
ships OF European nations are
said to be failures and virtually worthless.
However, this country cannot afford TO be
without a navy sufficient for any emer-
Rency thai is likely to arise. A strong
navy is a great help in the settlement of in-
ternationHl questions

ClevelAnd's Letter to Bragg.

The Istser OF Xr. Cleveland to Gen.
Bragg. published in the MORNING. NEws
yesterday, is an admirable one. IL
shows that while he is willing TO accept the
nomination for President he is not seeking
it, and will not seek il. He believes that
the office OF President is such an exalted
one, and its responsibilities SO great, that
/ the people should be entirely free in making
a choice Of their party candidates through
their regular party organizations.
lthas been stated quite frequently within
the last few weeks that Mr.. Cleveland
would write letter announcing that he
tion before the national convention. From
what he writes to Gen. Bragg it is evident
that he has no intention OF making such an
announcement. II the Democratic party
wants him for its presidential candidate he
is willing to serve it in that position, but
he places himself on record as being ops
posed to seeking the nomination, He has a
record with which the whole country is
familiar. Upon all the great public ques-
tions he has spoken clearly and
emphatically. There is no doubt as to
where he stands with regard TO any national
issue. and the people would know what to
expect OF him should they make him Presi.
dent again.
1t is true the democracy Of New York has
not chosen a delegation in his interest, but
there is no doubt thai IL he should be nom
mated the Democratic party Of that state
would give him just as strong support as
it would Senator Hill. Mr.. Gilroy, Tam
many leader and a strong Hill man,
in an interview published in the
MORNING NEWS yesterday, said that
II Mr.. Cleveland should be nominated
Tammany would stand squarely by him.
and do all it could to secure his election. He
said. also, that New York would cast her
electoral vote for the nominee of the Demo-
cratic party, whoever he might be.
That Tammany prefers Senator Hill, and
will do all it can TO have him nominated,
there is no doubt. but IL it sees, when the
national convention assemble, there isn't
much prospect OF his nomination, it will
not insist that he shall be the nominee Mr.
Cleveland has many friends among its
members and very strong ones 1t could,
therefore, without any apparent reluctance,
avor his nomination, and would do so A.,
doubtless, under the circumstances indi-
Gated.
1t will soon be known what the drift of
the sentiment in the party is, because a
good many state conventions will be held In
the near future. And from the tendency
that is cropping out TO instruct delegations
It is probable that it will be possible to say
who the nominee will be quite awhile before
the meeting Of the convention.

ure of Garza if Mr.. Gould could persuade
the bandit to kidnap him and take him to his
lair, tho ex-land surveyor would have little

ing purchased his liberty for $50 900 to

What Was the Purpone OF it2

The story sent over the country Sunday
night from Atlanta. that st was said in
that city on "undoubted authority that
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad had ac-
quired controlling interest in the Rich
mond Terminal Company, does not appear
70 have had any foundation whatever. The
story was published In che Constitution
Sunday morning a. a special from Naw
York. but nobody in New York appears
to know that the Baltimore and Ohio ever
thought of buying the control Of the
Richmond Terminal, or of wanting to con-
troll it. The president OF the Baltimore
and Ohio says that his company has never
even thought of purchasing the stock of
the Richmond Terminal.
1t 10 not strange that such story should
be printed in Atlanta as coming from New
York. but IL is strange that "undoubted
authority" for the story should be found in
Atlanta. The place to find such ''undoubtcd
| authority" would be Baltimore or New
York, but diligent search failed to find it
| there
There must have been some purpose in
publishing so unreasonable storyl What
was its As far as now known the story was
pure fiction. 1t had no basis whatever.
But it hardly seems probable that any one
would make up such a story without having
some object to accomplish. Who is the
author of the story? Let him state where
he got it, Let the public know what sort
of "undoubted authority" justified sending
il over the country from Atlanta.

The Irony of Protection.

The Pennsylvania iron mills will furnish
an interesting object lesson illustrating
how protection" protects the working
man. Several mills have shut down this
week, and others have curtailed their work
ing forces until in the city OF Pittsburg
alone about 1000 men have been thrown
out OF work. Some of the mills claim to
have been forced into the action taken on
account of lack Of orders, but the majority
Of them-notably, the works of Carnegie,
Phipps 81 Co., at Homestead-discharged
the men merely as a matter Of retrench-
ment. They have plenty Of orders ahead
and the lack of work had nothing to do
with the wholesale discharges. The idea
probably. was to make the men retained in
the works double up" and turn out enough
work to make up for the loss of the labor
of the men thrown out.
Carnegle's contributions to the repub-
lican campaign corruption funds keep
him in good standing with the
people who have government and other
contracts to "give out, ~ and his mills are
always busy. He is making steel castings
for the United States war and navy de-
partments and filling orders for the manu-
features Of iron and steel that are the most
highly protected by the Mckinley tariff
But his workmen reap none of the benefit.
They voted to keep in power the men who
howl about " American wages for American

the workmen fall victims to monopolistic
greed-their names are dropped from the
H.. l. A. :,

duction of the wages OF the remaining work

their working hours would surp rise nobody.
