The defeat Of VI. Ciemcnceau marks the col
lapse of another political reputation III france
lie is almost the only prominent orator ana
leader who has not held a Cabinet ONCE since
the establishment Of the Republic. Gambetta
Floouet and Brisson became Premlers after
nre.jdine over the Chamber of Deputies. and
VI. Clemenceau brought on ana dI'ec'ed me
Ministerial crises which involved thelr feufe-

and he was candidate neither for the Pfs-

is practical gain for good government. W ith
all his remarkable abilities as a leader and his
resources as a master of the art OF oiat0rcal
inyectivc. he had cerscd t. play 4 useful part
in public affairs. This was not because his
reputation had been compromised by his IN
timacy with one OF the most conspicuous
Panama intrigucrs. 1t was because he was
prevented by the abnormal development OF his
logical and critical faculties from enacting any
but ncgatve roe. BY the constitution oil his
mind and the quality Of his genus ne WAS
naturally and inevitably always IN opposition.

more serious 1t was great mistake on Mr..
O'Connors part. as we pointed out at the time
But it was a political blunder not moral

THE FIGHT AGAINST SENATOR O'CONNOR.

TIE THIBrNE has always avoided. 50 Far as
possible interfering in any way with local
nominations believing that it is for the people
TO say who shall represent them. II IS with
no intention Of departing from this policy that
we take part briefly in the discussion which has
been evoked by the candidacy Of Mr.. OCon-
nor for reelection as state Senator in the
Bnghamton District.
Mr.. OConnor has represented the XXIVth
District at Albany for four years. II is gen
orally admitted that he is one Of the ablest
men in the Legislature. As a speaker he is
forccful and eloquent; his qualities as a de-
batter are of an exceptionally high order. His
record is one of which any constituency might
well be proud. Surrounded by corruption,
confronted with bribery on every side he ha,
kept himself untanted No one has ever even
limited at wrongdong on his pait. Moreover,
he has the courage of his convictions, and has
not hesitated to express them when Others les,
bold would have remained silent And IT can
not be forgotten how he stood up last winter
almost sngle-handed and denounced the Bell
Telephone monopoly even when some OF his
own party associates were defending it.
His speech on chat OCCASION, by the way. j.,
urobaby to a large extent the cause of the re-
markable opposition that has suddenly mani
tested it,elf against him. The telephone COM
many has run things in such high handed man
uer at Albany of late Years that the slightest
DISPLAY of opposition to it's sway is SIRE to meet
with punishment, as Mr.. O'Connor is finding
out OF course, some of the people and some
Of the papers now fighting him do not under
stand this. Unable to find any flaw in hi.
record as legislator. his opponents attempt tc
imp,ach Mr.. OConnOr's Republicanism because
he once euogized Tammany Hall and voted
for Sheehan's Infamous Buffalo bill.
The first charge amounts TO this: Mr.
OCvnnor was simply speaking of the excel
lence of Tammany's organization, not of it,
moral depraviu, Just as Mr.. Fassett and a score

The Labor Day parade in this city was
-xr~aller in numbers :han had been expected
for the good reason that several labor organ
;zstions declined to parade because they
6aemed II wise to devote the money that would
thus be expended to the relief OF those VINO
are out of work and screy in need of assist
anco This decision does them credit. The
parade comprised about ). 900 men. and was
successfully conducted. The most striking
feature was the earnest patriotism manifested
by the paradcts as indicated by the number Of
American flags carried. The display of red,

CLEVELAND, O., May ls.-The rain
which has been falling with hardly a
moments cessation since Sunday night,
stopped shortly after midnight last
night and citizens OF Cleveland, upon
rising this morning, were delighted to
SEQ the sun shining brightly. In tho
period beginningSunday night and end.
ing this morning the rainfall was 4.75
inches. The Cuyahogo river was higher
than ever known before. Seven lives
were lost and great damage to property
was done.
As the waters OF the river recedo and
the losses OF persons and aFms owning
property along Its banks are investi.
gated, tho damage Is found 10 be even
greater than at first estimated. by
noon to-day tho water had dropped
over three ieet from Its highest point,
leaving the gtound aud buildings over
which it had been flowing covered by q
thick layer Of mud. Men employed at
factories along the river which had
been invaded by tho water. were early
at work doing what they could to save
machinery from the rust which covered
it. All the streets on the flats are
still flooded. An engine on tho New
York, Pennsylvania & Ohio railway fell
into the river this morning and sunk in
the water and mud out Of sight,
The body OF John johnson, ono OF the

peror, accompanied by Prince Albrecht
Regent, Of Brunswick, Prince Frederick
Leopold, Count Van caprivl and many
other nOtables proceeded to GOorlltz,
In silesia, to-day where ho persona lily
unveiled the monument of his grand-
father, Emperor William |. This event
has long been looked forward to with
great interest, particularly as 1t was as
sumed tho emperor would have some-
thing to say about tho recent defeat OF
the army bill and the present electoral
campaign, Aa consequence there wOre
great crowds OF people present aud tho
utmost enthusiasm prevailed,
After the exercises at the inonuman t
had been concluded an elaborate dinner
was discussed. Tho emperor did not
disappoiut his distinguished audience,
tor in his speech he said, speaking with
great aolemnity:
"This festivity il in the midst OF sori.
GUS times. Eleven years ago my grand
father addressed you the most import.
ant words. Now we must
maintain what William /. crc-
ted and secure the future OF our
iatherland. Our army. he con-
tinued, requires increasing and re.
modelling. l have summoned tho
nation to provide the necessary
means. All other questions arc infer.
ior to this, tho most serious question,
ono upon which depends the
very existeuce OF the iatherland.
And wo need absolute unity
In order to solve the question. What
ever separates US as Germany whatever
causes views to diyerge, must now DO
put aside because it imperils tho future
OF tho fatherland."
This speech mado a profound sensa-
tiCn and has been hailed with onthusi.
