THE SOUTH.

For clear view Of the political stu
alton in the South--though we do not
like the remedy proposed = we have
seen nothing more satisfactory than this
from the Journal Of the Knights Of
Labor: r f
The Democratic) managers realize
that their greatest danger is ia the awak-
ening Of the people Of the South. They
see that there is no longer q solid Democ-
racy there which can be depended upon
to vote 1.-THE ticket" blindly. The farm
ers have been asking themselves whether
il is not about time they gave more con-
sideration To their own welfare and less
to the interested mouthings OF the politi-
clans, and the result has been that the
producers Of the South are imbued with
the doctrines Of reform for which the Peo-
ple's Party stands.
There is prejudice among the white
voters of the South against the word
Republican, but they have no such
prejudice to prevent their retirement to
the Peoples party as cave of Adullam,
where they can sulk and sulk and bite
their thumbs at Cleveland and his mana
gers.
We do not blame the farmers of the
South for dissatisfaction. What they
ought to have is home market. With
coal and iron inexhaustible and water
power plenty, the South ought to manu-
facture the cotton it grows instead
of sending it all to Liverpool. Texas
ought to make its own boots and
shoes instead of sending its leather to
Lynn and paying freight both ways to
get its shoes back. Tennessee and
Northern Alabama ought to make their
own railroad and structural iron. All
these things would be of immense ad
vantage to the small farmer and to the
laboring man, with whom discomfort is
working. But the Democratic man
ayers Of the South have always been
saying to capital and to enterprise,
"Don' bull that mill yet, sab. Mex
yeah or the mex we shall have free
shoes and cotton goods from England,
sah." They have deceived their people
and discomfort is the result. a
After the discontented ones of the
South have been in the Peoples party
awhile they may see their way to taking
ono more step and landing in our ranks.
The situation is full of hope, of promise
even.

/. And IL came TO pass that good King
Arthur, who had ruled the land since the
untimely death of Garfield, which by in
terpretation is Washington, and Grover,
mighty man OF adipose, reigned in his
stead over all the land of Israel. which
goeth by the name of America.
2 And Grover did evil in the sight of
the farmers, aud walked in the anti
American ways of Mugwump, the brother
OF Tammany, which caused Israel to sin.
8 Now because the farmers were Door.
Grover said unto himself, Loi l will sit
down with very much hardness upon the
raisers of sheep. They do not realize over
fifty dollars each from this industry,
therefore they shall have no protection,
for the poor devils cannot help them
selves.
4. So Grover embodied these thoughts
in an epistle to the people. But when
the insulting message reached the ears OF
the farmers, they rose up and smote the
arch enemy of the tillers of the soil; yes,
they smote the fat Goliath hip and thigh,
aud there was q great slaughter or the
kings army from Dan TO Beersheba
which by Interpretation signifieth from
Maine to California.
s. And the hardy sons Of toll in our
workshops. and all the men who longed
for fair play aud equal rights, joined with
the insulted raisers OF sheep, and slew at
the Brook Hudson and New York Pass
mighty host of Philistines all of
whom fought for the fat Goliath Of
Gath.
8. And David who is called Benjamin
led the Israelites to battle; and he pre-
vailed nightly against Grover and
Knocked him out with pebble called
Protection for Home Industry.
Z. For David communed with himself.
Had these sheep-raisers been making
many thousand shekels per year, Grover
had not dared to raise his voice against
them; yea, he would have loved them
even as he loveth Tammany and the
Mugwump but because they. realize
merely fifty dollars per year, he despiseth
their poverty and warreth against them:
8. So David fought for fair dealing and
Justice to all, aud when the Philis,ines
awoke In the morning; behold, they were
all dead corpses.
o. And Grover, who had attempted to
pull very much free wool over the eyes OF
the people, fell into the pit which he had
digged for the raiser of sheep; and, 10. he
was very sheepish; for he wot not that

THE CLOSING HOURS.

II was scarcely to be expected that
the arguments on the Newport memo
rails would be free from party feeling,
but the judicious stand taken by the
majority yesterday must commend
itself to the public.
The main point Of the majority was
that the elections on both the sixth and
twelfth days of April were attended by
acts on part of the wardens, supervisors,
and other non-officials which were not
allowable under the Ballot Reform law,
and that therefore the election was H.
legal and void. II is a significant fact
that dnring the two hours yesterday oc-
cupied by the minority there was no
denial of this position of the majority.
No claim was made that the election
was legal. Their arguments were wholly
devoted to specious explanations of the
relative values Of the aldermen's and
the warden's counts. 1t was an attempt
to avoid the main question. The only
answer made to the charge was that the
election in general was conducted like
previous elections, and that if this years
election was illegal the election of 1891
was illegal also. But this years legis-
lature has nothing to do with the cleo
tion of last year, and it very wisely
simply declared the seats of the New
port members vacant by virtue of mo
election"

THE SILVER BILL.

The silver bill which passed the Sem
ate yesterday is the unadulterated free
coinage measure, the proposed hmita-
tion to the American product having
been rejected; it provides also for the
coinage of the masses of bullion heaped
up in the Treasury, and thus squints
towards the redemption of the Treasury
notes issued under the Sherman act of
July IA, 1890, and redeemable in silver
dollars only. II the bill became law any
hope Of maintaining silver and paper on
an equality with gold would be flung to
the winds. Gold would be driven out
of the country and would rise at once to
a considerable premium.
The vote by which 80 portentous
measure got through the Senate is worth
close attention. Stewart fathered it;
he is fishing for the Third party nomina-
tion. Twenty-nine to twenty-five stands
the record. Eighteen Democrats, eleven
Republicans voted for 1t (; seven Demo
Gratis, eighteen Republicans voted against
it. The Democratic majority for free
coinage was overwhelming, the Repubf-
can majority against it substantial.
With the single exception Of Don
Cameron of Pennsylvania no Republi-
can, not from the silver States, favored
the financial heresy.
Vice President Morton is coming in
for Democratic criticism on the ground
that had he been in the chair the mo-
ton 10 recommit would haxe- been car
ried, instead of lost on tie, and the
bill would have gone over till Decem-
Der. Mr.. Morton was out of Washing
ton he had no reason to suppose the
silver bill was coming mp for action, for
consent to take the vote was given by
"fluke," and the Senate had twice in
formally consented to postpone the mat
ter for week.
Democrats would do well to fight shy
of the absentee list. for consideration of
the pairs will damage them. The full
strength Of the Senate is eighty-eight.
Messrs. Stanford, Of California, and
Gibson, of Louisiana, were absent with
out pairs, so that with fifty-four votes
cast, thirty-two Senators have still to be
accounted for. Sixteen, of course,
favored the bill and sixteen opposed it.
OF the sixteen supporting free coinage,
thirteen were Democrats and three
Republicans. OF the sixteen OPP
posing IL thirteen were Repub-
licans and only three Demo-
Gratis. The total vote for the bill, cast
or paired, was therefore forty-fve-
thirty Democrat, fourteen Republican
and one unclassified-or more than two
thirds Democratic. The total vote against
the Stewart bill was orty-one-thirty-
one Republicans and ten Democrats, or
more than three-fourths Republican.
The free coinage strength i'm the Senate
is now, more than IL ever was, over
whelmingly Democratic.
If the bill should now pass the House,
Cleveland would be in an embarrassing
position. Democratic votes have put IL
through the Senate in defiance of the
Chicago platform. Crisp, McMillin and
Catchings, the triumvirate who consti-
tute the majority Of the Committee on
Rules in the House, now have II In their

GEN. BIDwELL.

The Prohibition nominee for the
Presidency is not man of national
fame. He was at one time congress
man and was connected with land
grabbing scheme. He has plenty Of
money. There is an element in the
Prohibition party which is opposed to
':Sunday school politics" and the ''prac-
ticap men seem to have been active
in working up all the booms that
had their little day at Cincinnati.
Demorest is rich and keeps his barrel on
tap pretty constantly. Bidwell made
his fortune out of the Pacific coast vine-
yards. 1t is related with varying mi
nuteness that when he became convert
to prohibition he tore up his
grape vines. This act of cheap
sensationalism seems to be what
has chiefly endeared him to his
party. To rational being it suggests
phylloxcra rather than excess of virtue,
seeing that if the plants were not
diseased, the grapes, which are not more
sin-tainted than apples, pesches'or pears,
need not have sent their juice to wine
vat or brandy still. 1t is not related
that Bidwell threw away the fortune he
had made out of the vines. It is with
the ..Mages of iniquity" that he will
run his campaign.
Gen. Bidwell is seventy-three years
old but 'looks sixty" There is; very
little more to say of him.
