Twelve West Virginia Democrats will
be semitic The Chicago convention.
Many times twelve will want to 60.
There will be quite an enterprising
rivalry among the brethren TO get there.
On what platform viii the nspirants
make their respective campaigns2 Will
they hurrah for Cleveland or shout for
Hill? The masses OF the party, who
can't go TO the convention but will do
the sending, will want to know for
whom they arc voting when they
choose delegates.
,Up,to this time the great men OF the
West Virginia Democracy have been
backward about declaring themselves.
From now on they will have to come
out from under cover.

PURELY PERSONAL.

Jetierson's old homestead, Monticello,
IS an Interesting place OF pilgrimage.
1t stands out on the summit OF beau
tllul mountain near Charlottesville and
commands an unsurpassed view OF the
surrounding country. On 4, clear day
the old capital OF the Coniederacy, sixty
miles away, can be seen. The mansion
is OF the modcrnized type OF Greek
architecture which was so popular in
the South few generations ago, with
rotunda and Corinthian columns.
Ex-Governor Alvin Hawkins, OF
Tennessee, was greatly disiigured and
hurt by the fire which destroyed his
house in Huntington, Tenn, last Sat-
urday night, and he lies in 4 critical
condition. lie may not survive the
misfortune. Smoke stupcticd him SO
that he had to be dragged out OF the
burning building, and his wife and
daughter also narrowly escaped.
Justice Joseph P. Bradley, OF the
supreme court, who died Friday, had
the finest private library in Washing
ton. He began buying books sixty
years ago when at school, and had kept
1t up ever since. Even the ballroom
and the dining-room OF his mansion on
street are packed with the biblio-
phlstic wealth OF which the house is
literally full to overlooking.

Here We Are Again.

lion. William l.. Wilson, IN his speech
{ in Baltimore last Friday night, paid his
respects TO the Mckinley tariff, OF
course. He boiled over on the tin
plate question, on which he said at is
what We send out that buys what we
bring in. We pay for tin plate, not
with money, but with the products OF
e the farm, and when you shut out tin
plate you shut out just that much
American product and throw it back
upon an already overcrowded market"
This delusion is based ona fallacious
economic consumption. So far as the
trade OF the United States with Europe
is concerned the amount OF the value Of
our sales OF American products depends
in no way on what We buy from those
countries.
To say that if we do not take our sup
ply of tin plate from Great Britain that
country will cut of equal value in the
purchase OF our agricultural products,
is to assume that hereafter Great Brit
Z ian will apply to her purchases from us
arule which hitherto she never has ap-
piled.
4 The statistics will be searched in vain
for any support OF the Democratic free
Z trade theory. The purchase OF our ag-
ricultural products by Great Britain
have been measured by her necessities
rs q consumer, not by out current pur-
chases OF her manufactures.
Great Britain must eat. She cannot
raise the food she requires. She buys
where she can buy the best advantage
what she needs tc make up the def
cheney. Ifitwerc otherwise there would
still be fatal defect in the Democratic
! free trade argument. The detect is cas-
lily perceived in Mr.. Wilson'S own chosen
tin plate illustration.
III Great Britain will take so much
less ofour agricultural products because
we cease to buy her tin plate and prefer
tomake our own, how much better to
have the tin plate industry located on
our own soil, where the men who make
the tin plate will certainly consume the
products Of our American farms in adj
dition 10 contributing in every way to
tie general support OF the government
and the upbu;lding Of the nation. Why
trust TO the uncertain foreign market
when wo can make st home market
as pnfailing as tho stars?

The Silly Story About Dir. Cleveland.
That is very pretty story about Mr..
Cleveland being SO disguised with the
trend OF Democratic politics that he
will shortly announce his withdrawal
from the race for the nomination.
1t is true that the boss manipulators
OF the party have taken UP with Hill.
But this is because they are ready for
anything to beat Cleveland. They do
not eypcctto nominate Hill and would
not ii they could. When thcynominatc
q man they want some show OF electing
him, and there is not q Democratic pol
itician oil the first class who thinks for a
moment that the people OF this country
are SO lacking in self-respcct as to make
David Boulanger Hill their President.
Nor is there anything to indicate at
this time that the Brice- German combs
nation can defeat Mr.. CleveIand's nomi-
nation. He is strong with the masses
OF the party. This the combine bosses
know, and this is what they know they
have to overcome. Mr.. Cleveland also
knows it. He does not permit himself
to get far enough away to break the
connection. He may divert himself
hunting on Joe JeiIerson's island, but
when he goes cunning he is thinking
more Of ballots than bullets.
Why should Mr.. Cleveland retire from
the contest? He has larger Demo-
cratic following than any other Demo-
crat has had since JEFF Davis led the
south into rebellion.

Peace or War?

Tho suspense will soon DO over. Our
complications with Chile have reached
point which must presently bring tho
decision whether there is 10 be peace
with honor or war avcnge to thcwound-
ed honor OF the United States.
Tho people OF this country prefer
peace, but thoro can bc no peace with
Chilo until that country shall have
made apology and PREPARATION. Our
sailors were shot down in cold blood
because they were our sailors. No coun-
try could allow to pass unnoticcd so
brutal an allront.
Wc hayc given Chile ample oppor-
tunity to make amends. Instead OF
amends We have had inexcusable delay
and at least ono insulting diplomatic
note. Ii tho affair had been between
Chile and Great Britain tho fullest
amend would have been mado before
now or tho port OF Valparaiso would
have felt the iron hail OF British shells.
The government OF the United States,
rejecting the! desire of the people for
peace, has been much to slow for some
OF the people, 1t has lett nothing un.
done to make the way easy for Chile to
settle with credit to herself the open
account between the two nations.
But the account must be settled. Ii
Chile will not do 1t voluntarily, at least
under the diplomatic pressure which
has been put on her, she must do it at
the mouth OF the cannon. The blood
will:not be on our hands.

4 Birthday Present to AIr. Gladstone.
Only. the other day Mr.. Gladstone
celebrated the eighty-second anniver-
sary OF his birth. On that day many
tokens OF esteem reached him from his
countrymcn.
Probably the most acceptable token
OF esteem and continued confidence is
that which reaches the Grand Old Man
from the electors OF Rosendale, who
have reversed the figures by which
Lord Harrington was elected to the
house OF commons from that district
and made Mr.. Gladstone n present OF
a member ofhis own way of thinking
who will act with him on the Irish
question.
This verdict will have demoralizing
effect on the Tory party, which before
long must be engaged in battle all along
the line for the control OF the govern
mcnt. The bye-eicctions have shown
STRENGTHENING; drift OF public senti-
ment in the direction in which Mr..
Gladstone, as the browning effort OF his
career, seeks to lead his ccuntrymen.
1.-THE general election were to take
place now the indications arc that the
masses would triumph over tho classes.

ANTE-ELEcrIoN GUESSING.


Estimates of How Ihs New York City Vote
Will stand.
New York, Oct. 24.-The Herald this
morning publishes its calculations on
the city's vote, based on the two days
registration. 1t says:
There have been registered in round
numbers 2O2. 900 voters. This tremen.
dous registration in two days foreshad-
ows u total vote of $4,000 or $4,000, for
there arc two more days and it would
be strange and against all precedent, if
fewer than 10000 persons registered on
each day. Some enthusiastic souls put
the total as high as $40, 900.
We have here q fairly definite basis
for calculations and Il few amusements
are more entertaining and more uncer-
tain than such ante.election analysis
and deductions. To begin, then, about
eight per cent OF the voters who regis
tered do not 90 to the polls. Some
authorities say seven. II we take eight
we may still be very sure that the total
vote Of New York City will be more
than 100000. 1t may 90 up TO $4,000.
Up to this point it is a matter OF cold
mathematics and both sides have to
agree, but here they split as to the
division Of the vote. The Republicans
say they will get at least 10000. Ii we
take the total vote to be only 100000,
and that seems to be the lowest possible
figures, 10000 would be left to be
divided among all the other tickets.
Not more than 5000 will be polled by
the Prohibitionists, Peoples party,
and socialists, woman sulragists, and
all the rest who are stirring around in
these shifting scenes. Therefore the
Democratic plurality in New York will
be $4,000.
The Democratic prophets will not adj
init that the vote will be less than
$4,000, They say that Republicans
cannot have more than 10000. That
would leave 10000 for all the other
tickets OF which 205,000 would be for
the Democrats or a plurality Of $1,000.
