Next Tuesdav,s Elections.


The end Of the silver fight in congress,
the assassination of Mayor Harrison and
the closing of the worlds fair were
events of so great interest during last
week that they Obscured, for the time, a
series of other events about TO take
place-the elections of the various states
to occur tomorrow. At that time
elections in some thirteen states will be
held Most of them, however, are of
minor Importance. General interest cen
tiers in those of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa
and New York only. The campaigns in
each of these states have been hard
fought, and election day will find each
party drawn up in solid lines for the de-
cisive engagement.
In Ohio the fight has been especially
aggressive. Each of the candidates for
governor is a fighter, and the contest has
been on lines well calculated to bring out
each candidates full powers. They joined
issues on the tariff, Mckinley in defense
Of his famous tariff law and Neal in at
tack upon it as 1.-The eliminating atrocity
of class legislation" sentiment which
he himself wrote and the Chicago conven-
tion adopted. What the outcome will be
cannot be told until after the ballots
shall have been counted. Each side eX-
presses its confidence that the result Will
be in its favor, though it is noticeable
that McKinley's friends are not so loud
in claiming beforehand a sweeping vic
tory as they were a month ago.
In Pennsylvania also the fight has been
made on tariff lines, but unlike the Ohio
fight, there is not so much doubt about
what the outcome in Pennsylvania will
be- Pennsylvania is protectiOnist state,
she has always been one and may reason
ably be expected to remain one for some
time. During the current campaign the
politicians have pointed to closed mills
closed because Of the financial stringency
and not because of fear of tariff reform-as
object lessons illustrating what might be
expected under tariff reform. The argu
ment has had its effect upon the unthink-
ing element, despite the reasoning of the
democrats. Pennsylvania, therefore,
may be expected to go republican
If it should do anything else the
result would be in the nature of a sur
prise, not of an expectation fulfilled.
Iowa was republican state until the
advent Of Horace Boies as a democratic
candidate. He swept the state twice, and
will probably do it again, though
his plurality may not be as heavy as in
previous elections. There are so many
tickets in the field in Iowa, and so many
uncertain elements affecting each ticket,
that it would not be safe to bet that any
particular candidate, except Boies, will
be elected
The New York fight will result as usual,
in so far as New York city,and Brooklyn
are concerned. The big cities are demo-
cratic. The revolt againt Judge Maynard
has grown to big proportions, but he is
likely to pull through with the aid of
Senator Hill and the state machine" If
he should be defeated, however, it would
be a remarkable incident of the election.
The republicans and mugwumps are direct
ing the hottest of their fire upon Maynard
AS whole the state will go democratic,
with CONCESSIONS as a New York poll
tician recently put it.

Ex-Speaker Reed has been talking
about Reeds rules" for three years,
trying to convince republicans that they
contain the sum of all wisdom and en-
brace the only correct scheme of govern
ment. He has talked of them early and
late, in place and out of place, until con-
gress and the country have become bored
with the subject. Still Reed is not salts
fed. He has written a book entitled
Reeds Rules" which will be issued
from the press of a Chicago house shortly.
The work purports to be a treatise on
parliamentary law, but its real purpose
is, probably, to figure as a campaign docu-
ment. 1t is hardly probable that Reeds
Rules" will ever become an acknowl-
edged authority and a textbook

Repeal and the Price of Silver.
From the Chicago Record GndJ.

1t IS not expected that the repeal Of the pur-
chasing clause OF the sherman law will cause
any great slump in the price OF silver. On
Monday the price paid per fine ounce for sill
yer was 40 cents This is equivalent to 54ls
cents for the metal in Il standard silver dol
lar. The silver men do not appear to think
that silver will go much, II any lower. and
this seems to be a reasonable conclusion. The
policy employed under the sherman law was
based upon the theory that the buying in
open market OF "a certain amount OF silver
would enhance the price of silver. and In time
make II approximate its legal ratio to gold.
The fundamental error in this policy was that
while IL took the silver out OF market by pur-
chase II did not consume the metal but al
lowed II to remain a Fart OF the worlds stock

North Carolina cotton manufacturers
have taken two important steps looking
to Capitalization of their business at
home. A large finishing factory is in
process Of erection at Greensboro. Here
tofore North Carolina cloths have been
sent to New York or New England to be
finished. The second step is the estab-
lishment at San Antonio, Tex, of a large
distributing depot for Mexican territory
New York has heretofore had control of
this department of the trade. BY finish
ing their goods at home and distributing
them to Mexico, direct from the mills, the
North Carolina manufacturers will put
into their own pockets a good many dol
lars that now go to New York and New
England concerns. The Texas distribu-
ting depot will begin business next month
and the finishing will probably be in oper-
alton III January.

Southern Republicans at a Discount

Southern Republicans at a Discount.
According 10 the Boston Herald the
members Of the national republican com
mittee are considering the ACCESSIBILITY Of
cutting down the southern representation
in the next national republican conven-
ton. The proposition is to allow the re-
publicans in the southern states TO send
two delegates elected at large from each
state, and one or two for each republican
congressman elected at the next congress
sional election, instead Of one delegate for
each senator and representative to
which a state is entitled, as at present
As the republicans elect very few con-
gressmen in the south the proposed
change, if it should be adopted, would cut
down the southern section of the next ma
tiOnal republican convention to very
small proportions.
One reason given for the proposed ac-
ton Of the national committee is that the
southern delegates in previous national
conventions have exerted very great infiu-
ence in naming the ticket without being
able to contribute anything to the cleo
ton of the ticket. This, however, is not
the main reason why it is proposed to cut
down southern representation. 1t seems
that the northern delegates object to the
tendency shown by so many of the colored
delegates from the south to make COM
modify of their votes. In other words, if
the southern delegates continue to do in
the future as it is alleged many Of them
have done in the past, it will not be a
.4#,
the biggest "barln to get the nomination.
AT every national convention for num-
Der of years it has been charged that a
good many of the southern delegates sold
their votes 10 the highest bidder The
members of the national republican COM
mittee, it seems, believe this charge
They cannot prevent the purchase of the
votes of the delegates, but they can make
the number of purchasable votes so small
that nothing would be gained by purchas-
ing them.
If the national republican committee
should take the step to which attention is
called it would not be long before what
little of the Republican party there is in
the south would disappear altogether
no SO4oICu lOouSIS' SoSIuB themselves
distrusted by their party would get out
of it as quickly as they could. Even now
they feel they owe the Republican
party nothing, and they would feel like
doing nothing whatever for it if they
should be held up before the county as
being unworthy to be trusted.
The matter has not been settled, and
there are no indications as to when it
will be. tits not improbable that the re-
publican leaders lack the nerve to throw
overheard the southern republicans

Some five years ago a number of the
negro laborers in the phosphate works on
Navassa Island revolted, murdered the
local manager and sacked the company's
stores. They alleged cruelty and robbery
on the part of the company as the causes
of their uprising. The leaders of the re
volt were taken to Baltimore, tried and
sentenced to prison. After the trouble
with the blacks the company employed
white laborers. A few days ago sixty
three white laborers from the island ar
rived at Perth Amboy and told a shock
ing story of slavery and cruelty on the
island. They say they were starved, for
they could not eat sinking meat which
crawled with maggots, which was given
them; they had no vegetables, not even
potatoes, and though the scurvy broke
out, even lime juice was denied them
They assert that they were made to work
when they were sick and were put in
irons and solitary confinement on bread
and water if they refused men who tried
to escape were chased by steamer.

Gov. Northen may have had the best of
reasons for pardoning those eight white
caps, but this is not at all propitious
season for extending executive clemency
to that class of law breakers. Ithas only
been few days since there were reports
of white cap operations in Carroll and
other Georgia counties, in which gin
houses were placarded with threats of
incendiarism or something worse. The
pardon of Rogers, Brooks, Pollard and
others will be regarded by those who
have an inclination to white capism as an
indication that their mode of doing bust
ness finds favor with the high officials of
the state, or else that the authorities
have not the courage to deal with the
white cap element. There was merit in
the appeal of the friends of these partic-
ular white caps for executive clemency.
but the effect of the pardon can hardly be
anything else than bad.

Interference Will Not Be Tolerated

Indications of a purpose on the part of
England and some of the other European
powers to interfere in the difficulty be-
tween Admiral MellO and the Peixotto
government in Brazil are cropping out.
Those powers are seeking to help Ad-
miral Mello, because they. want the re-
public overthrown and a monarchy re-
established. They are doing nothing
openly,-all their efforts are secret. They
understand hepolicy of the United States
in respect to the South American states,
and they do not care to place themselves
in open opposition to it. And the United
States will take care that they do not. 1t
is understood that our government will
soon make it clear that it will not inter
fere in the difficulty in Brazil unless some
other power does, and then it will do so
only for the purpose of enforcing it's
policy of letting the opposing factions
settle their differences without outside
interference.
If the present government is over
thrown no European power will be per-
mitted to dictate the kind of government
that shall be established. This country
will see to it that the Brazilians are free
10 establish such a government as they
want. In other words, this country isn't
going to allow any European power to
interfere in the difficulty, if it can pre-
vent interference. That is its policy with
respect to troubles in South American
countries, and that policy it is proposed
to maintain.
