will also meet on that day. IT happens that The
Jefferson or Kolb party will also meet there
Mt the same time To nominate State ticket,
and the question which Republicans are in
yited 10 consider In their conference is whether
they will again leave the field to the two Dem

Congressional candidates Of their own. For
wears past 1t has not seemed TO the Republicans
OF Alabama worth the trouble to set up candi-
dates for whom the votes cast were never hon
estly counted Perhaps there was n feeling
that mere shame might drive the Democrats 10
elections and 1t Is the unhappy fact that oppo-
sItion to Democratic despotism In Alabama, as
I'm some other Southern States. was considered
unsafe and liable to involve loss Of life or prop
erty. So long "a the systematized lawbreaklng
practised by that party could not be effectually
resisted. II seemed utterly useless to present
candidates or principles to the people.
The Situation this year Is greatly changed.
The struggle between the two Democratic fac
tions has prnpared a considerable proportion Of
the white Democrats to insist upon fair and
free elections. They declare that the Kob ticket
was counted out mt the last election. and do not
intend to submit TO repetition or the fra'ih;
but In order 10 secure fair elections for them
selves they are compelled to break up the con
spiracv Of lawbreakers by whom free elections
for Renublicans are defeated. II there could be

THE CENSUS or THE UNEMPLOYED

The police census Of the unemployed in this
city, not including the vagrant element OF the
population, shows a total Of 61.2S0 persons out
Of work. This number Of individuals repre-
sents 4S,6S1 families, Of which 1881 are in
need Of assistance, the rest having saved In the
past enough to exist OH for the present. This
is in truth mournful record. 1t occasions little
or no surprise by ceason Of the restitution which
1t reveals, for it Is not beyond the expectation
Of most OF those who have given attention TO
the subject, and even falls below the estimate
Of many. 1t Is to tc feared, however, that
though carefully taken, it Is incomplete In the
nature Of things such census cannot be pre-
sumed TO include all whom 1t Is designed to In
cude, and there Is n strong probability that In
This instance the omissions greatly exceed In
number the cases in which deception was sue
cessfully practiscd. The most cheering fact to
be found in this dark record OF distress IS that
which Professor Mayo-Smith notes in his letter

The latest move Of the Democratic Senators
In Trenton is to invite the Republicans to join
hands with them on distinct understanding
that the race.rack repealcrs shall be passed.
But the Republicans are not to be caught by
any such chaf. They have, as we have re-
peatedly pointed ont. nothing to compromise,
for right is on their side. and their duty TO the
people demands that they stand firm. They are
attending to business regularly. despite the
course pursued by Governor Werts and the
Rump which he continues to support
