BOTH WILL BE APPoINTBD.-It is
said that the President proposes to in.
sist ON the appointment of Taylor, col,
ored, as minister to Bolivia, and of Asst.
wood, colored, as consul to Calais, re-
CARELESS of the fact that the Senate did
not confirm the nomination of the
former and rejected that of AstwoOi
1t is said that they will both bc com.
missioned during the recess ofCOngress
to serve until the end of the next ses-
sion. Such action. especially in the
case of Astwood, will undoubtedly ex-
cite considerable comment. There are
number of precedents for it, however,
the most notable, probably, being the
action of President Cleveland during
his first administration in the appoint
ment of j. c. Matthews, colored dem
rat OF New York, as Q order of deeds
fcr the District, after his nomination to
that office had been rejected by the
Senate. Matthews was nominated
March ), 1856, and his nomination was
rejected July 81, 1856. He held office dur
ing the recess ofCongress and was again
nominated December u, 1887, and was
again rejected January % 1886, after
which, viz. February IS, 1887, James
NJ. Trotter, of Massachusetts,, was nom
mated as recorder. He was confirmed.
The President undoubtedly has the
right to make such appointments dur
ing the recess of Congress, but the ex-
ercise of this right in the case of per-
sons repudiated by the Senate is only
resorted to in extreme cases and then
only as matter of principle.-Hasl-

The New YORK Press says: "Only
in the gagged and shackled South is
the administration sustained" If there
was any gagging and Stacking in Fir-
ginia last Tuesday, no one of the gag
ged and shackled has complained OF the
outrage. Political gagging and shack
ling in the South exist only in the dis,
torted imagination of such South-haters
as are represented by the Press. The
South supports the administration be-
cause it was elected by the democratic
party, the party to which the white
people of the South belong. But what
does the South receive in exchange for
It's loyalty to its party and its party's
princiI les?

FRIDAY EVENING. NOV. 10, 1888.
TIE RICHMOND Times says Colonel

TIE RICHMOND Times says Colonel
O'Ferrall was not the choice of the ma
iority of the democrats of the State:
and that his nomination was imposed
upon the people by packed ward meet
ings in the cities and by courthouse
rings of petty office-seeking politicians
in the country, and that "if the full
negro vote had turned out and been
cast for the populists, the democrats
must have inevitably been beaten.
All of which is doubtless true, and has
g familiar sound in Alexandra. But
why didn't the Times and the thousands
of other democrats who scratched the
Co!oneps name at the election, and the
fifty thousand who didn't even go to
the polls, do as few wiser democrats
did before the ward meetings and coun-
try rings had done their work-oppose
his nomination and give the good rea-
sons they had for doing so?

THE New YORK Erening Post, which
labored so hard to induce the Chicago
convention to believe that Mr.. Cleve-
land was the only democrat who could
have been elected, now turns upon its
favorite, and and says some of his ap-
pointments "have undoubtedly deepen
el the impression of democratic incom-
potency and hypocrisy and dishonesty"
But wise men are not surprised at this.
The Post aided the democrats, not by
reason of love, but for grudge against
its own, the republican party. Such
assistance always does more harm than
uaod.

BIG MAJoR1rrEs.-Official returnsin-
crease the republican majorities of
Tuesdays election. They are as fol-
lows: Pennsylvania, 1SS,04; New
York, 100000; Ohio, S3,79l Massachu-
sets, 5000; Iowa, &c, 000s Nebraska,
5000. Judge Bartlett ran from $1,000
10 10000 ahead of the rest of the re-
publican ticket in New York State, the
plurality of which is about $4,000. All
the republican candidates in South Da-
kota were elected. The entire repub-
lican State ticket in Nebraska WAS
elected. The Iowa populists are dumb
founded at the small vote they received.

MAsoNs BARRED.-The New Haven,
Conn.,, Register prints story which, il
correct, would indicate that the Church
had very materially altered its views
in the matter of its communicates be-
coming members of secret societies.
The article says that a very important
conference of the Catholic priests of
the diocese was held this week at the
episcopal residence in Hartford, and q
circular that will deeply interest every
secret society man in the United States
was read.
The circular, which was official, and
which contained the results of the de-
liberations of n council Of the Catholic
archbishops of the United States, was
in substance that whatever ban implied
OF otherwise, that was on the secret
societies of this country, except in one
instance, has been removed. The ex-
ception is the organization OF Free Ma
sons.

AS THE details of the recent elections
are being presented it is becoming
more and more apparent that to the
democrats, AMI not to the republicans,
are the latters victories attributable.
The full republican and mugwump
vote was cast, but the democrats
kept away from the polls. 1t is only
the blind who can't see why they did SO.

Gettinpthe blame.

Tuesdays election" said U. S. Sen
ator Pettigrew, of South Dakota, who
was in Chicago Wednesday, twas surely
the culminative protest of the people
against the insolent and dictatorial
methods of Grover Cleveland and his
lieutenants. Such exhibitions of usur-
patton of power by the democrats OF
late could not go unrebuked. 1t was
the first opportunity the people had
had to speak against democratic meth
DDS and to declare that they wished no
change from the prosperous conditions
that existed previous to the election of
Grover Cleveland. This victory will
be followed by others, all significant
of the disapproval of the people of
the democratic disturbing administra-
ton"
"Ben Harrison elected Cleveland, al d
as soon as we got him out of the way
the republicans began voting their own
ticket again." That is the way ex-
Senator Charles B. Farwell explains the
results of Tuesdays elections. "Har-
rison's offensive personality gave Cleve-
land the Presidency" Dir. Farwell adj
ded, land the uncertainty as to the
democratic tariff policy helped the reac-
ton of Tuesday. During Harrison's
administration and up 10 the close of it
the country was prosperous. The re-
publicans were in power and would
have remained in power had it not been
for Harrison's insulting conduct. He
made bitter enemy of every promi-
nent republican who eyar called at the
White House, and that alone elected
Cleveland. "If Harrison had treated
the republican party with confidence
and respect, instead of insult and dis
courtesy, the party would have contin-
ued in power. and tho panic would
have been avoided"

The Virginia Election.

The democratic majority continue,
to increase. 1t will range somewhere
between forty and fifty thousand.
The democrats will probably lose bur
one or two Senators. The defeat Of
Mr.. Holt, in the Twenty-seyenth dis.
trict, is not fully conceded. The Sixth

Gratis, in the Thirty-ninth district-the
Tidewater districts.
The populists and republicans 10.
gether may have ten or eleven members
OF the House.
The republicans carry Ta2ewel and
Lee. The populists carry Caroline
Prince Edward, Mecklenburg. Prince
George, Powhatan, Floyd and tapy
carry AppomattoX for the head of their
ticket. lIiddlesex and Greenyille and
Franklin seem to have gone for the
populists. If SO it will give them two
more members Of the House.
Before the election the popuiists made
great claims of the strength they would
develop in the white sections, the Val.
ley and the Southwest. In the former
the democrats have not lost a county.
In the Southwest the only county con.
coded to them is Floyd, which has been
republican for years past. lfthey have
carried Franklin it will only give them
two counties in the mountain section o!
Virginia.
All of the other counties carried BY
them have been republican for years.
many of them by overwhelming MAORI
ties. So far as the opportunity has
been allowed for analysis of the returns
the populists seem to have secured an
Insignificant white vote. This, howey-
er, cannot be determined until all of the
counties have been heard from fully.

pended. Nevertheless many scientists
insist that the farmer is now rapidly
falling behind other classes, and at the
meeting of this association for 1891 at
Washington Professor Edmund j. James
of the University of Pennsylvania read
paper before the economic section
which excited much discussion. Pro-
lessor James was born i'll 1855 at Jack
sonville, Ills, and studied in many
schools, taking the degree of doctor of
philosophy at Halle, Germany, in 1877
an extraordinary honor for one so young.
In 1888 he took the chair of public
finance and administration in the Whar-
ton school of economy, University of
Pennsylvania.
There was much surprise therefore
when he took ground in favor of the
farmers political organizations, main
tanned that i'll spite of many plumbers
they would accomplish good and broad
ly insisted that the present politico-
economical system of the United States
was distinctly unfavorable to the farm
er. He advocated radical change in
railroad management and systems of
taxation, specifying the tariff and de-
Claring that "the farmer has real and
serious grievance" Such sentiments
from Pennsylvania naturally excited
surprise, and the discussion has since
been broadened. Professor James de-
clared that American farmers must
cease to compete with the ryots of India
and poems of South America by raising
wheat and cotton and must go into
lines of production where his superior
intelligence and freedom will be of real
and great advantage. And to this end
the scientists at Madison will doubtless
offer some suggestions.
1t may also interest common people to
know that the scientists are by no means
of one mind on the money question or
the so called social questions, or even on
things more purely scientific, and that
i'll religion they range through all the
grades of belief and unbelicf, from the
most pronounced hyper-Calvinism to
blank agnosticism and dogmatic mate
rialism. At Washington, in 1891, Ed
ward Atkinson's paper entitled Free
Coinage Why Not" was read by sec
rotary, and DIR. E. L. Peters advocated
bimetallism i'll Il ratio to be agreed upon
by the United States land other silver
using coming nations" a really novel
and suggestive point in his paper was
that many of the old arguments against
bimetallism are now absolute, rendered
so by the growth of modern commerce,
and that if one of the metals does go out
of this country that will cheaper it else
where, appreciate the other, increase the
production of one and decrease that of
the other, and thus restore the parity.

Absorbent Cotton.

Absorbent cotton is employed by sur
geons Tor stanching and covering wounds
and is usually medicated with some anti
septic solution like diluted corrosive sub
Innate or carbolic acid, with the purpose to
prevent putrefaction. 1t is also EMPLOYED
Tor various Uses in n sickroom, where it has
been found superior to the sponge rs an alb
sorbent of moisture. Cotton thus prepared
IS sold Ill small packages at n comparative-
~ nlsli price, according to The Textile Rec
oro' which explains the nature of this arti-
Gle as follows: Raw cotton is boiled in a
solution of potash until all the waxy and
greasy material confined in the fiber has
been extracted. 1t is then placed in a whiz-
ger and dried, after which it is put upon
the card and run out into laps. Cotton
thus prepared, when rolled up into n ball
by the fingers, will sink to the bottom of n
glass of water almost like stone.
