tits not the rcasserton OF preference for
a on-CLEvE1ANDc candidate that constitutes
the chief interest of the Hon. HENRY
WATrERsoN's latest political remarks.
Mr.. WATTERsoN declares. and no ono
will question his intimacy with the facts.
that after arranging the delegates
to thu Convention OF 1883. tho White
House incumbent's greatest effort was to
have offered again, as tho now pledge and
explanation Of his candidacy. tho platform
which subsequent to his election he had so
treacherously smashed into smithereens by
his sensational tariff message OF 1887. What
prevented tho Democracy from taking the
humliating responsibility OF presenting
GROVER CLEVELAND on the repudiated and
violated platform OF 1884. was that Col.
WArTERsoN and his FREQ trade colleagues.
who by CLEvELAND'S treachery wore rum
ming tho party over the head Of SAMUEL j.
RANDALL. were too far above tho spirit Of
humbug 80 irrepressible in the great Mug

subterfuge and made him stand rs an hon

As study In Clevelandism this has only
an historical interest. yet since that has
been made one OF the most obtrusive fea
lures OF the times. the effect OF every fresh
light upon it Is worthy OF observation and
record. Col. WATTERsoN'S latest disclosures
are certainly among tho most illuminating.

A Short Session at ALBANY,

The determination OF tho Democratic
leaders at Albany to adjourn the Legisla-
ture on April IA is sound and judicious. It
should be faithfully adhered to. Last year s
Legislature. Democraticin the lower branch
and on the joint ballot. broke all previous
records since 1874 by adjourning on April
80. after a session OF only sixty-two working
days. 1t was the shortest session In seven
did not adjourn until it had secured for the
Democracy the election Of an undoubted
Democrat to tho United States Senate. and
had given to tho people Of the State the
lowest tax rate for thirty-six years.
This year. with both branches of the
Legislature in the hands Of the Democracy,
1t is wisely proposed and intended to outdo
and excel even last years record Of prompt.
businesslke. and faithful public service by
adjourning on April IA. But the present
Democratic Legislature should. on its nd
journment. leave for the scrutiny OF this
years voters record OF public efficiency
to which the party may with confidence and
propriety appeal.
These are the five subjects to which the
Democratic State Convention in Saratoga
last year pledged the party:
l. bill to enumerate tho Inhabitants Of the State
preparatory a reapporoument OF Senate and Assem-
bly, districts.
Ab:n to reapportion the Congress districts In pur-
OF the Federal statute and upon basis of the
recent Federal census.
8. bill to provide for Constitutional Convention In
accordance with the wish Of the people declared by
y large ma jority At the polls In 1888.
bill to revise and consolidate the excise laws:
measure neliigentiy and cquitably framed carefully
in he nj
Just fees for licenses aud preserving all needed rcsric
tons for the maintenance Of order and the good Of
society.
Several bills In tho interest Of agriculture and labor
and to lessen tho burden Of direct taxation.
These things. with homo rulo for munich
palities low taxes. the turning out Of Re-
publican hOld-Overs and tho substitution
OF efficient Democrats in their places. will
justify tho confidence OF tho voters ex-
pressed in November. 1891. and assure u
verdict OF continuance in November. 1892.

TIE New York World Crit;cises Recent
Proposition of The Managers.
NEW YoEK, Nov. 22-The World SAYS
editorially: at IS said that the World : far
managers propose to close the ground at I
O'Clock every evening. If any such decision
has been reached it should be reconsiJered
at once. To close the fair at such an hour
would compel visitors from distance
either TO remain longer in Chicago than
they desired or could afford or to see the ex-
hibitiOn much less thoroughly than they
otherwise would. That would help the
Chicago hOtelkeepers, theaters, and beer
saloons to get money ont Of the people, but
1t would work serious Inconvenience and
wrong to the visitors.
Another Reason for Opening.
IF the fair is not to be opened evenings
one of the most interesting Of all exhibits
OF progress to be made there will be in eff
feet cut off. The whole art and science Of
electric lighting is a growth of very recent
years. Nowhere has inventive genius been
buster or more successful The pro gress

as this department OF endeavor is con-

STEUBENvILIE, o., Nov GA fearful
powder explosion occurred shortly after
noon yesterday at the Blarch coal mine.
located at the west end of Golfers, w. Va
Twenty-Five kegs of powder exploded, caus-
ing the instant death of three miners and
the serious wounding of eight others, three
OF whom will probably die. The names of
those who were killed are az follows: John
Pioshy, Wesley Anderson (culored), Mich
sel Cohoher. The wounded are: William
Anderson (co'ored), blown fifty feet cye7 =
trestle, leg broken, face and head badly
bruiscd-wil die; Edward Cook (colored)
horribly burned about head and back-wiIl
die; John Gillespie, of Akron, O., burned
nwardly-.aought cannot recover; John
Anderson lcolored), blown distance of
several feet TO a railroad trcstle. head badly
cut; Lawrence Campbell (col1red), burned
about arms, Lack, and head; John Zagiu~,
burned very seriously about arms and heai :
Matthew Wright, burned about head and
back; Geor-e Teeters, injured internally;
John Ramsey, burned about head and
arms; John iiul!y, miner, missing.
Lucl,y It Was No Worse.
The explosion occurred as the men We're
returning from dinner, which was provi-
dental, for had it occurred ten minutes
later the destruction of life would in all
probability have been something awful.
The force OF TIE explosion was awful, the
ground being shaken as though by an
earthquake. The force of the explosion
is shown by the distance some of the men
were blown. Wesley Anderson's body was
thrown through the air distance of over
leo yards. Il is supposed that the explo-
sion was caused by a piece of fuse which
became lighted in some manner and con-
veyed the fatal spark to the boxes in
which the powder kegs were kept.
Much Excitement at the Pit.
The scene at the mouth Of the mine, fol-
lowing rhe explosion, was one of great ex-
element The entire population gathered
and the women, surprising at first that
more Of the men were in the mine than
really were, begged that rescuers go in to
them. It would have been death, however,
to have gone in before the air had cleared
That some of these who were in the mine
were not sutfocat d to death is due to She
presence Of mind OF James Clark and
James Borden, who got the outside door of
the shaft. which had been blown from its
hinges, and replaced it. The mine belongs
to H c. Smith, Of New Cumberland, w
Va, and William Smith and John Nc
Mutt, OF WeilSville. About fifty men are
employed in the mine. which has been in
operation since May 1891.
