IT seems odd to think of the Old Domin-
ion as debatable ground, but when 1t is re-
membered that in 1883 the state gave Cleve-
land only 1900 plurality out of total of
more than 100000 votes, it can readily be
understood why the alliance or third party
movement is giving the Virginia democrats
great uneasiness. This movement is charac-
terized by the utmost determination on the
part of its leaders, who declare that they
are in the fight to stay. Even the old buga-
boos of the =" force bill " and negro DOM
ination " do not scare them, for they say
that the present state election law, con-
cocted by bourbon legislature in 1884, is
infinitely worse than anything republican
congress can give them.-Boston Journal.
TERENCE V. PowDERLy, chief officer OF
the Knights of Labor, makes this plain
statement Of the bearing of the Homestead
difficulty on politics: Partisan papers are
endeavoring to make political capital out OF
the terrible scenes which took place at
Homestead the other day. The democratic
papers are vehement in their denunciation
of the republican party for enacting tariff
law under which protection was afforded to
manufacturers. There is no love for work
men in the hearts of these editors; desire
to serve party interests alone actuates
them. The Mckinley bill reduced the duty
on the articles manufactured at Homestead,
and the democratic papers in asserting that
Kinley bill are but condemning the very
thing that they themselves advocate and on
which they base their claim to power-a
reduction of the tariff"

M'KINLEY DID IT.


[Ar, " We're Coming, Father Abrdhdm."]
The autumn days are coming
And winters near at hand,
And soon the snow will drift and blow,
And cover all the land;
Yet have no fear, for labor's dear,
And soon our purse will fill
And Billy Mckinley did it
With his big Mckinley bill!
The green wheat carpets all the plain,
The corn-stooks stand arrow;
The starving thousands of the East
Will catch the overflow
Our herds are thick in every vale,
Our tlocks on every hill
And Billy Mckinley did it
With his big Mckinley bill!
In every street the happy feet
OF well.paid labor ring;
The hearts are light, the homes are bright
Where wives and children singl
The hearts are light, the tin pail bright,
The faces brighter still
And Billy Mckinley did it
With his big Mckinley bill
Our ships are crowding every wharf,
Our steam cars thunder by
Swift shuttles of the loom Of toll,
From East to West they fly;
They bear the food from farm to mine,
The ore from mine to mill
And Billy Mckinley did it
With his big Mckinley bill
The world moves faster every hour,
The wheels begin to hum;
To-day is but an earnest OF
The brighter days to come;
So, here's health will bring us wealth,
Let's give it with will
Three cheers for Billy Mckinley
And his big Mckinley bill!

PEORIA, Ills, July 13-The river
steamer frankie Folsom, from Pekin. with
forty persons on board. was sunk in Peoria
lake last night
Eighteen OF her passengers were
drowned, despite the efforts of the crew
and the rescued passengers to save them.
1t is impossible to learn the names of
the victims at present, owing to the excite
ment.
When it was seen thai the vessel was
sure to sink the panic ON board was heart
rending to witness. The passengers made
frantic efforts to avoid the awful fate
which stared them in the face, and their
appeals for help were pitiful to hear.
A Number of Small Boats Missing.
Professor Pain had been giving pyro-
technic display here for the past two
weeks, and good view of the exhibition
could be obtained from the lake in the
northern part of the city, and large num-
bers on excursion boats and small row.
boats took advantage of the free exhibit
tion.
Last evening about 1890 strong wind
storm suddenly arose and the craft were
unable to withstand the violence of the
storm. One boatyard claims that nine
skiffs have not yet returned, and it is
thought that the occupants have been
drowned. There is great excitement.
Particulars are hard to obtain, as it is not
known who were in the boats.
There Were Sixty on Board.
LATER.-It is known that there were
sixty persons on board the Folsom when
she started on her fateful trip. Instead of
the disaster taking place on the lake it was
in the Illinois river. The boat had just
started on her return when she was struck
by a cyclone and careened until the water
was able to food her hull and sink her.
The noise Of the tempest prevented the
cries of the drowning from being heard
AS soon as the disaster was known small
boats put off to rescue the living and
recover the dead.
Partial List of the Dead.
So far the following are known to be
dead: Mrs. Duisdecker and two girl COM
panions, names unknown; Miss Cora
Fisher Mrs. Fred Fisher, Miss Mary Flath,
John AhrenS, Mary Paebel, Annie Paebel,
Mrs. William Wiles, William Ripberger.
All of these people were from Pekin. Be-
sides the above it is almost certain that
eight persons in small boats lost their
lives. While the work of rescue and
recovery was going Oh the river bank was
lined with frantic crowd, many of whom
had relatives on the boat and were crazy
with apprehension as to their fate. 1t was
terrible scene.
Several Cooked by Steam.
Among the bodies at the morgue are
those of several women who are so cooked
by steam as'to be unrecognizable. When
the boat careened the frantic passengers
rushed to the guards and clung to the
rails until washed off by the waves. Peo-
