LITTLE RHoDY ALL RIGHT.

The Rhode Island election has resulted
in complete victory for the cause of Pro-
lection, and as such it is matter for re-
joicing. The contest there achieved a
prominence disproportionate to the size of
the State on account of the magnitude of
the issues involved and because it sounded

The result demonstrates that the Demo

ing beautifully less in the manufacturing
States
Strenuous efforts were made in Rhode
Island by both parties. Before the cleo
ton each was loud in its expression of the
important part the result would play as an
indicator of the direction in which votes
would 20 in November. Viewed from
this standpoint the overwhelming success
of the Republican party carries encour-
agement into the Protectionist camp while
it foreshadows defeat for the Tariff re-
ducers. The Democrats based their hopes
in large measure on the operatives whom
they endeavored to cajole by oratorical
sophistry. But the workmen were wise
enough to see that their personal interests
were identical with those of the nation
at large, and they refused to be misled.
But rejoicing in success attained must
not be allowed to diminish the efforts put
forth for new victories. The struggle was
close enough to indicate the necessity for
individual and combined exertion on the
mart of all who believe that national com
mercial independence is matter of su-
preme Importance. Rhode Island has
gone in the right direction, and it remains
for larger and more important States to
follow the example.

POLITICS IN THE PULPIT,
Breaks Are Outlines Disastrous to the Pas
tor and the Church.

Breaks Are Outlines Disastrous to the Pas
tor and the Church.
Philadelphia Bulletin.I
In several recent gatherings of denomina-
tional sects there have been some notable
arguments in favor CT a more active partici-
patton, by ministers of the gospel, in munic-
ipaI politics and Improvements. The Rev.
DR.. Mcconnell, of St. Stephens Episcopal
Church, Is one of the best known advocates
of such departure. His arguments which
are generally relevent and sound, were prac-
tically reiterated by DR.. Robert H. Fulton at
the recent meeting of the Presbyterian Min
isterial Union, at their rooms on Chestnut
street. in paper entitled "The Relation of
the Pulpit Toward Civil and Municipal
Problems The drift of this paper was
toward the conclusion that an assumption
of the dignity of the cloth was not q renun-
citation of the responsibilities of private
citizenship, and its logic, if not its express
sion, was that the former act tended to make
the citizens obligations more bining and
impressive.
We are not disposed to quarrel with these
conclusions. The learning, experience and
piety comprised within the clerical profes.
sion strongly entirle their possessors to be-
come active in promoting great public ends.
1t M Is an ansararsy a,T m on Its, ITS face to appoint
and then to deny them the right to be heard
on public questions, which concern them
as much as us. The question becomes one
not of their right of participation, which is
conceded, but to the extent to which they
may participate with dignity, and when and
how they are to suggest, approve or con.
into a political stump: hence that is not the
place even for argument against improper
legislation. Neither can personalities be
tndulged in there, for the effect of these is
always to divide the congregation and in
jure the chuch. If churches were organized
on political grounds the pastor of a Demo-
cratic congregation might allude disparag-
ingly to 'fGrandfathers hat' without injur-
ing his influence in other directions; and his
Republican neighbor might touch on the
STUFFED Prophet of William street" with
equally indifferent results. But they are
happily not SO organized, and breaks OF that
kind are alike disastrous to the preacher
who essays them and to the church.

DEATHS HERE AND ELSEWHERE,
James Gallagher, steubenville.

James Gallagher, aged 49, died at steubenville yes
terday. being an invalid for over so years. James
Gallagher was born in Philadelphia, and when 10
years of age his mother came here and apprenticed
him to Joseph Walker, the pioneer saddler and
harness maker Of Eastern Ohio. In 1880 Mr.. Gala
CHER, with another saddler, loaded the first fiat
boat and sent II down the Ohio laden with flour,
salt, etc. The trip was so successful that he re-
manned in that business for several years. On Of
his return trips Mr.. Gallagher came from Natchez
to Steubenville on horseback to avoid the cholera.
He met with accident about this time, which
crippled him SO that for over 80 years he was
obliged to walk with two canes. For the past IS
years a sketch of Mr.. Gallagher's life is simply
sketch of the banking business of the city. He,
with Others reorganized the second bank here,
which became known as the Jefferson Branch
Bank. Its existence was at one time precarious
that men like William Means. James Gallagher
and William Kflgore carried q large part
of the assets around in their pockets to
prevent them being seized. Those were exciting
political times, and the trouble settled by the
United States Supreme Court deciding in favor
of the bank. which ruling Is still regarded as the
supreme law of bank taxation. Since then Mr..
Gallagher has been Justice of the Peace, one of
the incorporators of the Pennsylvania lines of the
Southwest system and other large enterprises.

No doubt the Hill organs will point to
the Rhode Island result as due to Cleve-
lands exertions. There is every evidence
that had the Democratic leadership devolved
on any one else the party would have suf-
fered a far more crushing defeat. A poll
tician who stubbornly refuses to define his
position on the silver question is not the
man to excite enthusiasm or even to evoke
any trust as Presidential possibility

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN MEMPHIS.
A Handsome 10-YeaY-Old TndianapoIis
High school Graduate WEEDS .
wealthy Chinaman in Chicago.

MKMPHIs Tenn, Jan. 25.-One OF the most
sensational tragedies which has occurred in this
city in years was committed this afternoon.
Both the victim and her slayer were prominent
society young ladies, and the affair is the talk of
the town tonight. At O'Clock, while Miss
Freda Ward of Gold Dust, Ark, and her sister
were walking toward the customhouse, q
buggy containing the Misses Alice Mitchell and
Lizzie Johnson drove up the walk, and as the
former couple were opposite the buggy Miss
Mitchell sprang out of the buggy, gra ped Miss
Ward by the neck, drew q bright razor from the
folds OF her dress and with it cut the throat of
her victim.
Miss Ward sank to the pavement and the MUIR
deress jumped into the buggy and exclaimed:
"Drive on; I've done it," and rapidly drove to
her home The sister of the murdered girl had
tried to hold her assalant, but she also received
q slight cut Miss Ward was carried to an infirm-
airy. but expired just as the institution was
reached Miss Mitchell was arrested at her
home and conveyed to jail two hours after the
affair. While the cause of the killing was not
positively apparent, it is believed that Miss
Mitchell committed the crime because she had
heard allegations to the effect that Miss
Ward, her former friend, had made
remarks of a decidedly uncomplimentary
nature regarding her. The murderess is the
19yeer-old daughter of q retired furniture
dealer, George Mitchell and her victim is the
daughter of John Ward, wealthy merchant
and planter OF Gold Dust, Ark. The coroner's
jury charges Miss Mitchell with premeditated
murder
