The situation in Alabama.

The republicans pretend TO think that
Alabama is a doubtful state owing to the
split in the democracy. There is no doubt that
the Jones and Kolb factions are extremely
hostile, but there are some reasons for
thinking that the hostility will become less
marked as the day OF election approaches.
The democrats in the Kolb faction are not
80 entirely Indifferent to the interests of
their state as to be willing to contribute to
the election Of q republican President and
+ republican congress. While they talk
with extreme bitterness against the regular
democracy, q large portion Of them, per-
haps the majority, are likely to vote the
democratic ticket.
There are three electoral tickets, and in
each congressional district there are three
congressional candidates. The democrats
have nominated exceptionally good men for
presidential electors and for congress- The
third party ticket is composed Of democrats
and republicans. 1t was shaped by Chris
MaRee the well-known republican politician
Of Pennsylvania. 1t is alleged that he has
agreed to supply the managers Of the ticket
with q large sum Of money. What the con-
sideration is the public, of course, does not
know. 1t would not be surprising, how.
ever, IL It is that the electors, If elected, are
to vote for Harrison and Reid and the can.
didates for congress are TO help the repub-
Icans organize the House. There are some
pretty strong men on the third party ticket,
but outside Of their own counties they
would probably be called cranks.
Neither the republican electors nor any OF
the republican candidates for congress have
much Of a chance Of being elected, though
they think they have. Their idea is that
the white vote will be divided between the
democratic and third party tickets, which
division will permit the republican ticket TO
be elected by plurality.
There is a chance that the democrats NAV
fail to elect two or three out of the nine con
gressmen to which the state is entitled. but
it can be stated with a reassuring degree of
certainty that Mr.. Cleveland will get the
electoral vote Of the state. The report in
our dispatches yesterday that Chris Magee
had induced the straightout republicans &c
support the fusion ticket may have some
foundation, but it will be impossible to gel
them to support it with any considerable
degree of enthusiasm.

savannah's Advantages shown

The plan of telling Savannah's advan-
tages at this time is meeting with hearty
support from our corporations and business
men.
The Manufacturers Records feature of
sending the Savannah articles abroad trans
lated into French for France, and German
for Germany, is an admirable and very
novel and enterprising conception in that
excellent paper and is a new and original
stroke of newspaper policy worthy of COM
mendation.
1t was announced that Mr.. L. Charter,
the Belgian consul, had kindly agreed to
translate the Savannah articles into French
We are pleased to state that the equally
public, spirited gentleman. Mr.. J. Rauers,
the German consul at Savannah, has con
sented TO translate these articles into Ger
man.
The imprimatur of these careful and hon
orable gentlemen will give high authority
to these truthful accounts of Savannah's
claims, and our people will appreciate their
interest IN Savsnnah's progress.

Indiana Troubles the Republicans.

Indiana Troubles the Republicans
The national republican leaders are
greatly worried by the prospect that Gen
/ Harrison will lose his own state. They pre-
I tend to make light Of the fact that Judge
/ Gresham has openly AvOwed his purpose TO
vote for Mr. Cleveland, but they cannot
wholly conceal the anxiety the avowal has
caused them. Judge Gresham has q strong
republican following IN Indiana, particu-
larly among the workingmen, and Gen.
Harrison has a good many political and
personal enemies IN his own party. The re-
suit Of Judge Gresham's detection Is becom-
ing apparent in various parts Of the state.
Republicans hostile 70 Gen. Harrison are
openly announcing their purpose to work
and vote against him, and conferences are
being held with the view Of organizing the
disaffscted republicans
Under ordinary circumstances Indiana Is
doubtful state. The republicans, there
fore, have reason to be alarmed when such
a prominent and influential member Of their
party as Judge Gresham takes a position
hostile 20 their presidential candidate.
The farmers aud workingmen, ever since
the Mckinley tariff became g law, have
been debating the question whether or not
the high protective policy does not impose
unnecessary burdens upon them, and
now that Judge Gresham, who
has always been regarded as a
thoroughly conscientious man, tells them
that It does, thousands of them who have
heretofore voted the republican ticket will
be very apt 70 vote with the party that
promises to reduce these unnecessary bur
dens.
IL is not 10 be wondered at, therefore,
that the national republican leaders are pre-
pairing TO spend money freely In Indiana.
They must depend upon money to carry the
state, because, when such men as Judge
Gresham refuse to approve the Mckinley
tariff and the force bill. they can accom-
plish nothing by argument.

Coat or the Homestead Trouble.

Cost OF the Homestead Trouble.
The people Of Pennsylvania are beginning
to understand what the Homestead trouble
is costing them. The troops that have beer
maintaining the peace at Homestead To-
about three months have been withdrawn
They have cost the state 5000, 900. That +
pretty large sum. and it will be q burden
on the taxpayers that they will feel 1t Il
probable that the Carnegie association hal
lost a good deal more than that, and that
the striking workmen are out something
over 81 900 900 in wages. And what hal
been gsinedi Absolutely nothing. There Il
not the,remotest probability of the strikers
winning the strike. The Carnegie associ-
alton is considerably crippled, but it is well
able to wait until it can get wOrkmen for the
wages It offers The result will be that the
Homestead workmen will have 70 accept
the terms Of the Carnegie association or
leave their homes and seek employment
else where
Most of the striking workmen are entl-
tied to sympathy. They are the victims Oh
an association that does not, at all times
appear TO be controlled by desire 70 pro
mote the greatest good Of the greatest mum
Der.
In the Homestead trouble the interests OF
thousands we're neglected for the dement, OF
a few. The new scale Of wages that the
Carnegie association proposed affected only
a few Of the employees and those few were
paid very literally. Zach one OK them
doubtless has saved enough to live several
years without doing anything. They are
not suffering and are not particularly anx-
ious about the future. The ones who are In
distresY and who see suffering ahead are the
thousands of men who were earning only
enough to support their families, and who
have nothing to depend upon when the
charity Of their friends and the funds Of
their association are exhausted.
There seems 10 be no justice in policy
that makes thousands suffer that few dis
satisfied persons may gain their point.
Whether or not the strikers have been
dealt With unJustly is not now being con-
sidered. The only point to which attention
is directed is whether il Is wise for an or
ganization to impose hardships upon hun
dreds, and perhaps thousands, Of people be-
cause few Of its members fail TO secure
with tn cir demands.
1t may be said that II the few had sub
mitted to the reduction made in their wages
there would have been reduction in the
wages Of all In a short time. There is
nothing in the history of the Homestead
trouble to justify such an assumption, but
even il there is, would 1t not have been
wiser to have waited for signs of gen.
eral reduction In wages before adopting a
course that has practically broken up hum
dreds OF holmes and insroduosd suffering
into hundreds Of families?

TO go to an absolute stranger, as Col Buck

Chicago imagines that she owns the
worlds fair. The newspapers of Chicago
imagine that they own Chicago and run
the universe. With these facts in mind it is
not difficult to understand why the Chicago
papers were so persistent in their demand
that Congressman Breckenridge, of Ken
tuoky, should not be the orator of the day
on the occasion of the dedication of the fair
next week. He had given an alleged afFront
to Chicago by opposing an appropriation
for the fair because he could'find no consti-
tutional warrant for such a use of public
money. He was not opposed to the fair, but
to spending public money for it. His
declination to deliver the Grafton, under the
circumstances, was not unexpected, though
it was unnecessary. He might have deliv
cred 1t without surrendering one iota of his
self-respect. The fair is not wholly Chi
