The principles of Democracy will
never die. When the representa-
tives of the party go astray, the
remedy is in repudiating such men
and finding faithful men to put in
their places. To bolt the party or
talk of some new organic Ition
is more than futile; it is
foolish. All the reforms demande /
by the people are declared for by
the Democratic PLATFORM; if the
lea iers repudiate them and refuse
80 enact the laws clearly indicated
as the will of the party, it is the
leaders, not the party, which is
wrong. The remedy ID plain; get
new leaders. The preservation of
the principles Of Democracy by an
organized party is necessary for the
perpetuation of republican gNvern
ment. Sand by the party and at
the ballot box snow the traitors
under.

The Georgia Legislature, which
represents the Democratic sentiment
of that sta.e, recently passed resolu-
tons declaring for the coinage of
both gold and silver without dis.
elimination and for state banks of
issue. After reciting the financial
distress prevailing throughout the
country, the resolutions say: eve
hold it to be tn the interest Of the
people of the nited States that the
people should coin both gold and
silver as money of final payment
without discrimination against
either metal. the dollar and unit of
coinage of which shall be of eq Ial
intrinsic and exchangeable value"
The silver coinage, Mr.. Cleveland
says, cau't be &C ompl shed without
International agreement, and on the
question Of state banks Of issue,

Knock the Very Spots Out
Of the Deep Craft.

NEW foEK, Oct. 10.-For the second
time, and that more easily than the first
the Americas cup defender, Vigilant. de
feated the English representative, Val.
kyrie. The second race was sailed yes
terday on triangular course from Sandy
Hook, under conditions that could not
have be9n more gratifying. While the
victory was magnificent one only the
strongest words of praise can be said OF
the gallant but ineffective struggle which
the Nallyrie made. She was beaten
three miles at the finish, and when the
plaudits Of thousands rang out to speed
the conquercr, the hull OF the conquered
was yet far astern.
1t was fair and square open sea race
both boats finding every breath that was
astir. When the Nigilant turned the
flag Of the second leg, she was good
two miles in advance. Having rounded
that mark then came another leg on
which the cutter was supposed to be
much the better boat. The wind was
pretty nearly abeam and the sheets we're
hauled aft away. 1t was pretty good
specimen of reach, and yet the light
draughted boat knocked the spots out of
the deep craft.
There is but one thing to say about it
the Vigilant continued to increase her
lead from the time she began the leg
until she crossed the finish line. She
had made on an average, and Just about
actually, gain Of mile on each of the
three legs. 1t was an ample test, as has
been told, on each of three points, wind
ward work, running and reaching.
There can be no doubt that the Vigi
liant will win three straight races and
therefore the match. 1t still remains,
however, a question as to which boat is
more worthy in half gale and very
rough sea. The official time was: Nigi-
liant. start, l:25, finish, 2;50:0l, corrected
time, 3:25:Ol; Nalkyrie, start, l1:2J, fin
ish, 3:O2:2i, corrected time, 3:35:3G.
Thus the Nigilant beat the Nalkyrie
by ten minutes and thirty five seconds.

CHICAGO DAY.

CHICAGO, Oct. 1O.-A perfect autumn
day and tie largest crowd that ever
conRregated at like gathering in the
worlds history, combined with all other
features to make Chicago day at the

Everything on the program went off with
perfect success and the only thing to
mar the day or evening was number Of
little accidents inseparabe from the
crushing and jamming of such mass Of
people as contested the worlds fair dis
trict Happily there we're but few seri
Gus accidents, although great many
people were painfully bruised in the
different crushes.
The crowd was larger than that at the
banner day of the Paris exposition
Every part OF the grounds were crowded
and Midway plasancc was almost i'm
passible. Never before has holiday
been so generally observed in Chicago
Every business house of any consequence
was closet and small stores of all de.
scriptions followed suit In all sections
OF the city these stores were closed and
even the thousands Of mIlkmcn caught
the Infection and notified their patrons
several days ago that they would make
but one delivery today. Many large
firms, In addition to closing their places
Of business, furnished their employees
with tickets of admission to the fair.
With all these people turned loose, and
added to by the tremendous influx of
outsiders during the past forty eight
hours, 1t is not to be wondered at that
such crowd was never seen before.
