No Comfort for siIrerItes.

The silverites Of the Democratic party
who are clamoring for the free and I'M
limited coinage Of silver at the ratio Of
16 to are getting but little if any COM
fort from the great majority Of the demo-
cratic papers that are recognized as fav-
oring free silver coinage. For instance.
the St. Louis Republic. which is a free
silver paper. says: I'm its long possession
of power the Democratic party never IN
dertook to establish a bimetallic coinage
in defiance Of the commercial relations of
the metals. Therefore by the same rule.
we may expect that it never Will"
No. the Democratic party will never de-
clare for the &c to 1 ratio as long as there
is such a wide difference between that ra-
ito and the commercial ratio of the two
metals. It will never declare for the 10
to / ratio as long as it is not absolutely
certain that at that ratio a silver dollar
would circulate on parity with a gold
dollar. In other words. there isn't the re-
hottest probability that the Democratic
party is going to put any financial plank
in its platform that doesn't mean sound
money.
The silverite organs may indulge in cpl
thets, howl about wall street." gold
bugs" "shylocks." and all that sort Of
rot, and the silverite leaders may eau
GUS confer and issue addresses, but it is
just as certain as that day follows night
that the Democratic party is going to sit
down hard upon the silver craze and de-
clare for sound money. Papers like the
ST. Louis Republic see this, and hence
they are beginning TO talk about the ne
cessity for party unity, and to point out
that the Democratic party has never done.
and will never do. what the silverites
among its members are insisting it shall
do.
What the silverites want done is against
common sense and common honesty, and
If the Democratic party should listen to
them and follow their lead, it would be
wrecked beyond recovery in the next ma
tional campaign. The wise thing for the
silverites to do is to stop their caucusing
dismiss their committees, close up their
literary bureaus, bid goodbye to the sill
yer mine owners and drop silently into
their places in the ranks of the democ-
racy. They have done enough harm.
What folly it would be to do more The
roar of the mills, the hum Of business,
and the rise in the prices of cotton and
wheat has paralyzed the silver movement
The hard times are going. and the silver
movement, that received most of it's

There remains no longer the shadow of
a doubt that the much exploited silver
convention in North Carolina the other
day was a fiat failure. The Wilmington
Messenger, a silver paper, is disguised
with the makeup and outcome of it. and
the leaders of the convention themselves
seem to be disappointed with what was ac-
complished They have about given up
hopes of any permanent results being
achieved by the gathering, made up as it
was of a few republicans, a sprinkling Of
democrats and large number of popu-
lists. There was. and is. no bond of
sympathy between the several elements,
hence they cannot and will not work in
harmony. 1t is thought by many North
Carolina politicians that the fusion of the
last election between the republicans ana
the populists will not be extended to the
forthcoming campaign.

We have no doubt that the qualiflca-
lions for suffrage in South Carolina re-
ported to the constitutional convention on
Tuesday win be adopted substantially as
reported. They are practically the
qualifications which have been adopt
ed in Mississippi and which SEN
ator Tillman has favored since it
was determined to call consti-
tutional convention. The qualifications
are that a man to have the right to vote
must be able to read and properly inter
pref the constitution of the state. or
must pay taxes on at least $500 worth Of
property. There are other minor qualifi-
cations. but the foregoing are the only
ones that will cause discussion.
1t is true, of course, that the qualifca-
tons in the hands of INSCRIPTIONS white
men could be so used as to discriminate
against the negroes, and 1t may be that
If these qualifications should be adopted
the negroes would not get exact Justice.
but they would not suffer injustice very
long. The political situation would even
tually so shape itself that the demand for
negro votes would compel fair admins
tration of the registration laws.
The qualifications would have good eff
feet upon both whites and negroes. It
would stimulate them to improve their
intellectual and material conditions. The
negroes would strive to qualify them
selves as voters and the illiterate whites
would not permit themselves to be dis
tanced by the negroes. The consequence
would be a general uplifting of both the
negroes and illiterate whites. What
some of the negroes may now construe to
be a deliberate plan to keep their race
away from the ballot box may turn out
to be the very best thing that could pos
sibly have been done for them. If the ne
groes are capable of lettering their con-
dition they will likely have the incentive
to do so. If they should be led to strive to
reach a better material and intellectual
condition the loss of the ballot for few
years would not be a matter of much con-
sequence.

the Chinese government is conceding a
great deal in relinquishiRg so many of its

bear out the charge frequently made that

of his duties or that he is lacking in influ-
ence to compel the respect of the gov
eminent to which he is accredited.

The curse of our nation is our political
contests One administration is not fair
ly under way until congress and polite
ians are agitating for the succession. Our
financial system is often made the play
thing of party leaders who care nothing

gain power, and an important economic
policy of the country is not even fairly
tried until partisan interest agitate for its
overthrow. The time has come when the

Minnesota has recently concluded her
census. She takes census every five
years. The data obtained shows that dur
ing the past five years she has gathered
relatively more population than any other
state which takes a quinouennial census
and that the gain has been heavier in the
ulation of the pine forest region in the
northern part of the state has increased
nearly 80 per cent, while the agricultural
section in the western part of the state
shows an increase of % per cent. 1t is
believed that the hard times for the last
year or SO had the effect-of driving the
people out Of the cities and to the timber
and agricultural districts.

A Misleading Renort.

According to our Atlanta dispatches the
report in Sundays New York Herald rel
alive to the charges in that city for rooms
and board and for other things, was so
far from the truth as to Justify a suspic-
ion that there, was some motive in making
it other than a desire to get the truth be
fore the public. We don't like to believe
that so fair and honest a paper as the
Herald will let the matter rest where it is,
but will either undertake to sustain the
statement of it's correspondent or prompt
ly admit that that statement had no sub
stantial foundation.
The prices for rooms and board stated
in our Atlanta dispatches yesterday is as
low as any one could reasonably expect
A dollar day for a room in private
house is certainly low enough. 1t seems
that very comfortable rooms can be had
for seventy-five cents day, or $50 a month.
In ordinary times prices are not much
lower. The hotels are expected of course
to get 81 a day or more for an ordinary
room for one person. With the privi-
lege of a bath there are few who would
object to paying 81 a day. and for excep-
tionally good rooms in the very best hotels
50 day or more.
We said some time ago that the rates
for entertainment would eventually regul-
late themselves. and would not be suf-
ficiently high to afford ground for reason
able complaint. Persons who have money
to spend will find what they want for
what they are willing to pay, and those
who have to take care of the pennies
will find accommodations to suit their
purses.

VILE IT Be- aER. CLEVELAND?

Nothing affords a better illustration
of the divergent views Of the South
and the Earth than the comments on
the recent election. In the South, even
among those who endorse the Presidents
financial views, the opinion prevails that
the divisions in the party are in some
ms asure due to his lack Of wisdom as a
manager Those who do not believe in
his financial policy, hold his refusal to
make concessions to the silver men in
the party, when the Sherman act was
repealed, as the first great cause Of Dem
ocratic dissension and bitterness which
preceded and insured defeat.
On the other hand, in many sections
of the North there is strong convic-
tiou that all the disaster to the party is
attributable to the unwillingness to fol
low Mr.. Cleveland, and those who diff
fered with him are made solely charge
able for the disaster The New York
Herald voices this sentiment saying in
an editorial headed "Will 1t Be Mr..
Oleveland2"
The Republican wave that swept over
the country from East to West last week
confTonts the Democratic managers with
a new condition. 1t is an omen that
next year will be Republican year, and
that ii the Democrats nope to win at all
they must settle their differences among
themselves and agree upon their very
best anu strongest man for the Presi
dency. 1t will be no time for dark
horses, and they cannot afford to expert
ment with new or unknown conditions.
This vital consideration would seem to
make the re nomination Of Mr. Cleveland
inevitable if the Democratic leaders are
able to read the signs Of the times, and
want to save the party from disastrous
defeat.
Without Mr. Cleveland the Democrats
cannot win; with him they may win. Ii
was his great popularity, irmness and
wisdom that wrested the Presidency from
the Republicans four years ago, and had
the democratic leaders needed mis- warn
ings and followed his counsel there would
not lave been Republican tidal wave
this year. His strength with the masses
saved the party from defeat in 1892, and
it is the only thing that can save it from
defeat in 1896.
