Some Of our weaker minded Democratic
brethren seem To DO under the impression
thut tho Homestead affair is going TO help
the Democratic ticket. How? None of
them can tell. Just to tho extent that sedi-
ton. murder. and lawbrcaking have bccn
encouraged and app!audcd by pretended
Democratic newspapers like tho World. and
pretended Democratic leaders likr Senator
pALMNH. and their expressions shall be nc
copied as Democratic uttcrancos. the Home
stead affair will iniurc the Democracy.
Tho idea that men engaged in the effort
to run the CARNEUlE mills by violence are
going 10 .urn In for tho Democratic ticket.
because the propr!etors refuse 20 surrender
the control of their property, is too pi"pos-
tcrous to talk about The immense ini'n-
cncc Of the AmalEamatcd Association has
always been ut tho service Of tho Rc-
publican party. 1t has turned out
any number Of hirc,ing Republican
emissarics. like JOHN JARRETT. 1t Is
managed by II fcw hundred highly paid
men. and they order tho rank and file in or
out Ia suit themselves. ana always so rs to
maintain their own oiigarchy. The House
Committee asccrtained. much to their
surprise. what magnificent wages these
luxurious gentlemen were paid. Do they
wantany cutting down of tho tariff? Will
they stand any free trade nonsense? Not
much!
We predict that when the strain OF the
canvass is reached. most Of these arsto-
cratic gentlemen, certainly those with tho
biggest and loudest mouths in the late dis
turbancc. will be found in the pay OF the
Republican National Committee, shouting
that the tariff is in danger and wages arc
to DO lowered by CLEvELAND'S election.
Tho eminent Mr.. HUGH ODONEELL Is more
than suspected Of being in the business
already. The rest will not be slow to follow
his example when the WANAMAKERs and
WHISTLES and JoNESEs havo filed the
Republican treasury. and recruits are
sought for cash. IL these headers " are at
work by that time. they can glorfv the
Republican pnrty all the more; if still out
OH strike. they will be in the greater need Of
the money which the Republicans will be
ready md able to disbursc. Those who
can talk will be put on the stump; those
who cannot will be sent out as secret agents
to pervcrt the minds of workingmen.
What argument will these high priced
gentlemen use? Simply this: that they
never had any quarrel Win the WlluleSOms
and beneiiccnt Republican party. They
had only Il little difference with Mr.. FR1CK.
because he would not let them run his bust
ness and fix their own wages. But they
will aver that without tho Republican
party there would be no such business as
Mr.. tricks and consequently no one to pay
such wages as either those which they re-
ceived or those which they demanded.
They will never consent to kill the goose
that lays the golden eggs: but they will do
their best TO hold Tie goose on the nest and
fight for the eggs.

siderable pcrtinence to the extraordinary

emily with the knowledge and consent OF
Senator MCPHERSON. to thrust upon tho
party rs its candidate for Governor, Sena-
tor MCPHERsoN's friend. Mr.. EDMUND F. c.
Young of Jersey City. Even il there were
anything in political equity which entitled
Hudson county to furnish tho Governor for
nine years out of every twelve years. it is
highly questionable if any Democrat in
New Jersey lacking Senator MCPHERsoS's
personal interest in Mr.. YOUNG. would pitch
upon that particular citizen as the proper
representative of Hudson county's per-

Essex county has distinguished and
worthy candidate for the Democratic

the Hon. ANDREW KIRKPATRICK. the Presi-

A Question that Becomes Urgent.

The latest proof OF the defiant energy OF
Mr.. STAMBOULOFF is the execution of
number of persons and the Imprisonment
Of others on the ground OF conspiracy
against Prince FERDINAND. The accused
persons were tried. and it is not disputed
that some OF them were guilty: but against
others. including the ex-Minister KARAvE-
LOFT. the evidence seems to have been I'M
duly strained. 1t is not. however. the as
scrtion of the right Of self-dcfence inherent

flciently exasperating that the Bull
garans, after being redeemed from
atrocious oppression at the cost OF ire
mendous outpour of Russian blood and
treasure, should exclude Russians from
public employment and deprive them
OF the smallest shred OF influence
in the country. To this monstrous ingratl-
tude-such it seems. OF course. to Russian
eyes-is now added deadly insult to Bull
