The unexpected death of Senator
BARBOUR will cause universal re-
greet in the Democratic party. He
arose from the ranks of the people,
and was an able, clear-headed, and
upright statesman, who deserves to
be lamented by his party and his
country, He was chairman of the
Democratic committee when the
State of Virginia was wrested from
the control Of the renegade, Ma
HONE, and he was rewarded by his
party with a seat in the United
States Senate, which he held at the
time of his death.

The logic Of the situation is sim
ply this: Ithas been the object of
a few would-be leaders in the ALI
ance to capture if possible all Dem
ocratic conventions and primaries;
failing to do this they would lead
the Alliance into the third party.
This has been their supreme object
for the past two years. They made
a mistake in attempting to serve two
masters, OF, in other words, to play
a double game, and the sweeping
change of sentiment in the Demo-
cratic wing of the Alliance has for
ever sealed their doom politically,
and they are stranded, as it were,
on hepoliticalreefs Of dependency
and dispair. Meanwhile the issue
is organized Democracy, and it is
best not to cloud the issue or weight
it down, but let every Democrat be
on the alert to Illustrate any scheme
Of the enemy to weaken Democracy.

THE convention Monday was a
tribute to the man who has toiled
from the ground up and is in every
way worthy the exalted station he
occupied through the sound judge
ment Of the Democratic party and
the wisdom of the American people.
The Democrats of Benton County
declared that in their view GROVER
CLEVELAND is the man for Presi-
dent Of the United States because
his admirable administration of the
great Office Of President has proven
his capabilities, while his views on
the great questions Of the day are
those Of statesman and a Demo

cepted him as settling the issue OF
standard-bearer, and to all appear
ances the convention at Chicago
will be a mere ratification meeting

1T was expected that BUCHANAN
would carry some of the counties
last Saturday, especially those in

reside, and the result has been an
agreeable surprise to the Democra-

any in the party who were at any

have seen the error Of their way

after reading it the President descended
to the east room and held his usual Sat-
urday afternoon reception to the public.
There were about 200 people present.
not one of whom, as he shook the Presi
dents hand, could have told from his
cool and collected manner that any.
thing unusual had happened. Indeed.
an official of the mansion said that the
President really seemed to be in better
spirits than usual and made felicitious
replies to the greetings of some of his
visitors.
The reception over, the President re.
turned to his library and addressed the
letter to Mr.. Blaine, accepting his res
ignation. This was given to Private
Secretary Halford, with instructions
that IL be delivered at once. and Mfr.
Halford thereupon took it to Mr.. Blaine's
house and placed it in his hands. Thus
the whole transaction did not consume
more than an hours time.
The news Of the resignation OF Secre-
tary Blaine created profound sensa-
ton at The Capitol. The Senate was
not in session. hut the House was in the
throes of filibustering against the anti
option bill. The effect OF the recep-

announcing the event, was magical.
