structive one. The last one before this
happened six weeks agJ and was a
trifiing affair.
How the awful wreck OF yesterday

o'clock yesterday morning people in
lronton, twenty-five miles away, heard
the terrible detonating roar
iA Ceredo, three miles away. windows
were broken and wares In the stores
shaken from the shelves In Catletts-
burgh, nearly ten miles away, the earth
shook and people were alarmed. Every
body OWNED the cause aud soon there
was aorush from all directions TO the
scene The local authorities organized
and surrounded the ruiLs with a Gordon
of pol ca. through which none Of the
thousands Of spectators was permitted
to pass.
1t has been ascertalned that the first
explosion was In the glazing mill,
where there we're ten tons Of powder.
Then successfully the packing house.
the magazine, the canning mill and the
four wheel mills, and lastly car loaded
with gunpowder went hurling in fiery
fragments through the air. Not ves-
tige OF the entire plant remains and
the country for half mile around is
strewn with fragments of the buildings
and Of the bodies of five men, victims
Of the disaster II is not known def
nitely, but at the present writing IL Is
believed that no less than thirty-fve
tons OF powder were burned in the sew
eral explosions.
THE KILLED.

who has been superintendent Of the
mills since they first started. was blown
TO atoms Only his hand was found

Ed Winton, the architect and en-
gineer who built the works, was in the
magazine when IL exploded and, strange
TO say, his body was very little mu-
tilated.
John Bentor, workman, body hor-
ribly mangled.
John Schlosser and Charles Scott,
workmen, were both terribly mutilated.
All there is known or supposed TO have
been in the buildings when the ex-

IT seems to us thai just at this time
1t would be possible In start a new
party and make it grand success, il
behind II there were ohly a few great
men. There was mighty divisen be-
tween the Republican and The Demo
cratic parties 25 years ago. That divi-
sion is so tar broken down now that
between conservative Democrat and
conservative Republican there is no
dividing line except on the line Of
party prejudice. just now there is an
lrrepressible conflict on the financial
question between the disciplined East
and the undiscipined West and South.
We believe il some men, only big
enough, would meet in convention and
lay out a programme. make moderate
protective tariff, Offering encourage
mcnt to American industries of all
kinds, Including foreign com merce,
aud the adoption Of geld aud silver as
money of equal value and Significance
on some ratio which might be agreed
upon, that the party would pretty
nearly smash the two old parties.
We know it looks little queer 10
imagine that anything could break up
the Democratic party after its expert
ence between 1861 and 1871, but the
strength of that party has always been
in the South, and just now the young
nen of the South are very restless ua-
DER the fact that while they car hold
the South solid by intlaming prejudice
against Republicans, so long as they
do hold the South they cannot hope
ter their people the best honors Of the
Republic. 1t there had been poor
crop last year in the North, or had
there been a good crop in Europe, the
people would have been so poor North
and South that they would have turned
to any new party organized on any
thing like fair basis that held within
1t hope for the future.

changes of law must be at every step
regardful Of the labor ind capital thus
involved"
This plank. which was capable of the
Interpretation that the Democratic
party, in framing tariff laws, would be
recardful Of American industries and
labor, was overwhelmingly defeated in
the convention and in it's stead was
adopted a resolution that tariff for any
other purpose than revenue was uncon-
stitutional and frau duIent; that is, that
tariff SO adjusted as to protect indus
tries and labor is unlawful.
There is no straddle about the tariff
plank asst now stands. 1t is tor the Brit
ish policy Of tariff for revenue only. 1t
is the policy of Henry George, Henry
watteraon, Roger Q. Mills, the Golden
Club in England-and Grover Cleve-
land has been nominated to stand upon
it, in spite of his desire that so frank
declaration should be avoided.
Notwithstanding the INTELLIGENCE is
pleased to note that the West Virginia
delegation voted to throw off the mask
OF hypocrisy and expose the Democratic
party in its true colors, it confesses to
its surprise that certain members of
the delegation, in view Of their former
records, should SO vote. For instance,
there are Colonel fancy and ex-senator
Camden. Only short time since the
latter plead for Republican votes in the
Legislature, urging that if they didn't
assist him to be reelected senator, the
state stood in danger OF being repre-
ssnted in the national senate chamber
bysorank a tariff-for-revenue-ouly DEM
ocrat as Daniel B. Lucas. Some Repub-
licans wero led to vote for him to avoid
this calamity. Colonel fancy, as pub
Usher OF the Democratic organ OF the
state, likewise pictured the awful
calamity that would result in the defeat
OF protection Democrat and has been
asserting in his paper that Democrats
were good protectionists and that there
were no FREQ traders in this country.
1t will be hard tor the West Virginia
delegation to explain to the iron, steel
and glass workers. the potters and all
the other wageworkers in the projected
industries OF Wheeling, as well as to the
miners, the lumbermen and all the other
wageworkers of the interior OF this pro-
tected state, why they voted down a
resolution declaring that tariff legisla-
ton "mua be at every aep regardfA of la
Dor and capital" aud voted for a resolu-
ton declaring such tariff legislation IN
constitutional.
The Democracy of West Virginia will
have to face this issue. The lines are
drawn, the Republicans will force the
fight and no side issues will be permit
ted to attract attention from the main
question.
