| very serious danger threatens the Demo
cratic party in general and the South in par
ticular. II Is stated in tho Washington cor
rcspondcnce of the New York Herald that tho
Eastern Democrats are threatening to bolt the
party in case free silver coinage bill is
psssed. or free 20 cent. silver dollar plank is
placed in the Chicago platform. and either
vote outright with the Republicans. or stay
at home and let the election 90 by default. II
this should be the result OF forcing the free
silver theory on the country in spite of the
many practical and. so far. unanswerable
arguments against it which have been adj
vanced. and with reckless disregard of the
disasters which would. in all likelihood. be in
ficted thereby. the South will be the greatest
sufferer. Such detection from the party
ranks could have but ono result. and that Is
the defeat Of tho Democracy and the restora-
ton of Radical rule
Has the South reflected on what this would
mean to her IL would mean the revival of the
Force bill. and the passage of that odious
measure into law. and this would mean that
the South would be bound hand and foot:
her elections held under the supervision OF
United States soldiers and marshals armed
with guns and bludgeons. and negro DONNA
ton forced upon her at the point o the bayo-
net. The destruction of Southern civilization
and the check in our now triumphant march
onward to progfess and prosperity which
would ensuo from this condition of affairs are
too fearful 10 contemplate.
If the Southern members of Congress do
not heed the warning which is now given
them. and refuse to be q party TO the pas
sage of a Free Silver bill. which threatens
the country with serious trouble, and the
Democracy with disastrous defeat, they will
be responsible should Radical victory, with
oil its attendant consequences. be thereby
brought about. The passage of such
measure at this time would
commit the party to that line of policy and
force the Chicago Convention TO embody
free-silver plank in the national platform;
and this would at once ALLEVIATE the last, turn
the Democratic party into Western and
Southern party. compel it TO nominate a
Western man and force it to rely solely on
these two sections for success. OF course.
nothing could be expected under such cir
cumstances but ignominious and oyerwhelm-
ing defeat.
There IS no sense in the Democratic major
ity forcing this silver question at this time.
The whole subject should be held in allegiance |
until after the Chicago Convention has met,
and representatives of the party from all over
the Union have participated in Its coun-
ellis and formulated safe and wise silver
policy for the party's guidance. Any other
course would be premature and mischievous
N the extreme, and. as we have seen. might |
cad to such complications as would fatally |
1emoralize and disrupt the ranks of the De-
And as. in that event. the South
would be by far the greatest sufferer the
Southern members should positively refuse

AN ELECTRIC PLANT

Mr. Andrew Pizzini. Jr.. publishes a letter
in the State in which he offers for the Electric
Light Company 10 furnish electric lights TO
the city for streets and public places where
ever the city now uses either gas or electricity
for $4,000 per annum. The Mayors message
shows that we used for the year 1891 SIC 900
worth of gas for lighting the streets and other
public places and we paid the Electric Light
Company Sll 900 additional for the one hun
dred and thirty-four electric lights with
which it supplied the streets during the
year. making the cost Of public light during
the year $4,000. Mr.. Pizzni offers TO fur
nish electric light for all public places for s67.
600 per annum, thus saving the city 800 900
per annum. II is midsummer madness for
the city to undertake the building of an cleo
tric plant in the condition of her finances with
such an offer as this open to her. Accept Mr..
Pizzini's offer for the present, and let us look
around more fully before we plunge into an
other enterprise that will coat US not cent

IT was very unfortunate for Senator Hill
that he sent General Sckles to Georgia TO
electioneer for him. II has led the Atlanta
Journal to unearth the past unsavory record
of that gentleman as bitter Republican. a
malignant South hater and South insuter up
TO 1880, and as Democrat for revenue only
since that time. This is all very bad for the
General, and he did not better his cause any
by his dramatic scene with Longstreet when
lie and that doughty old Georgia Radical
publicly embraced each other. and Long
street was SO affected that he lifted up his
voice and sang the Star Spangled Banner"
II Hill does not show better judgment in the
selection Of his lieutenants lie will not make
much Roadway in securing Southern votes.

FROM his palace, at FREDERICKSBURG. ex-
Chancellor Bismarck must either smile or
frown as he contemplates the predlcament in
which the young Emperor finds himself after
a rule of two years on his own personal re-
sponsibility That predicament is precisely
what Bismarck foresaw would oyertake the
sovereign if he sought to relax the stern laws
of repression which had been enforced by the
Prince. The confusion in which William is
now involved must raise only smile of cyni-
cal derision on the face of the old statesman
when he thinks of the Emperor personally;
but in its relations TO the future of his coun-
t.y Bismarck, no doubt, discovers in this
confusion cause for serious anxiety.
The fabric of the present German
Empire is due more to his energy.
audacity and sagacity than to the
same qualities in any of his contemporaries
Moltke and the old Emperor were the mere
instruments of his policy. 1t must strike
home to the heart Of this great man. chatting
in retirement, to observe the jeopardy in
which the mighty structure wrought by his
genius and character has been SO soon brought
by the rashness, arrogance and oyer-conf-
dence of a boy who IS unworthy to unloose
the latchets of his shoes.

FIVE war ships are now in the process Of con-

With the coming Saturday midnight
The record of the Old Year closes forever
This is the one particular time when we
instinctively look back over the closing
twelve.month, and recall its hopes and

sorrows; we mentally sum up its record
of good and evil and with a sigh over
vanished hopes, or unsatished ambition,

resting place the winter winds wall tor
the first time we turn our faces to the
sun rising, to welcome the New Year.
Retrespection has its use, if we lay to
heart these lessons of experience that the
hast has brought us; mourning over the
irrcparable IS time lost. Why tarry be-
side the dead of the past? Why dwell
amid the tombs while life rs still our
heritage, and the threshold of the New
Year invites our footsteps? One can
make but poor progress il lie goes with
