with cheap Japanese labor, every

SAN Francisco, CAL May S0.-A
meager and unsatisfactory advice was
received here yesterday regarding the
laundering of the Pacific Mail steamer
Colima at Manzanillo night before

SUGGESTIVE WARNINGS.

Everybody knows that the Democratic
party fences are badly "down" in Cecil
county, and that skillful work will be
required to patch up the breaches before
the next election.
The factional organs have already begun
to toot the party horn, but the note
sounded is not pitched in very hopeful
key.
The Ne'rs announced recently ''that there
will be no fight this year among the Sub
stantial" elements of the party"
Our contemporary, the cecil Dtmocrm,
however, was more cautious-unintentio
ally perhaps-in his editorial utterances.
He deprecates factional fight at the
primaries, but very significantly admits,
that there are Democrats who still carry
knives up their sleeves and will oppose
any proposition for party harmony.
That term substantial is a word of preg-
nant meaning, when coupled with the
warning of the News "that the man or the
set of men who would hoist factional flag
now, are simply enemies to their party"
All this is the language of fear and not
of hope, since no such warnings were
necessary, if half the party harmony actu-
ally existed, that the organs would have
their readers believe does exist.

MR.. GORMAN IN EVIDENCE.

Mr.. Germans State Central Committee
met in Baltimore on Wednesday,
When every Democratic leader, except
MIR. German, was present at the Carrolton
Hotel on Tuesday, no one one could guess
the date OF the convention.
When Mr. German came on Wednesday,
and pressed the party button in his coy
parlor, every bell in the hotel rang-July
Gland the date suited everybody.
few weak protests were heard, but
they were promptly howled down, and
German harmony reigned supreme.
In the face of the hypnotized committee,
what rash spirit of party rebellion, could
have prompted that stalwart Democratic
editor, Mr.. William NJ Busted, of the
Centreville Observer, and who is one of the
leading lights in Queen Anne politics, to
protest against the German taint that rests
upon Senator Tom Hayes as a possible
gubernational candidate.
Is this an "oif" year for "Bosses' in
Maryland, think you?
Certainly not after the performance of
Wednesday.

THE REPUBLICAN TIDAL WAVE

The Spring elections just held show little
abatement of Republican victories, and
there are yet no visible signs of the
re action which hopeful Democrats have
been looking for since the great Republican
tidal wave of November last.
Chicago has Just elected a Republican
Mayor by Al 900 majority, although very
few years ago the city was Democratic.
The election of Swift to the Mayorality
there. is as big a rout as the election of
Strong in New York.
Throughout Illinois, which in 1892
swung from its party moorings and gave
Cleveland and Alleged 80, 600 majority, the
returns on Tuesday, indicate Republican
victories in almost every city and town.
In the next greatest Western city, st.
Louis, which, until 1894, had been Demo
cratic stronghold, there was another over
throw. The Republicans carried it by
1000 majority, sweeping every Democrat
out of the City Councils and electing
twenty six of the twenty eight members of
the House of Delegates. This, taken in
conjunction with the election of ten Re.
publican Congressman in Missouri last
November, is strong evidence that the
political conditions in the largest State
politically in the South are likely to under
go permanent change and that Missouri
as doubtful State in the next Presidential
election is more than a possibility. 1t is
not to be wondered that the Democrats in
st. Louis are reported to be ''stupified over
the result as it goes far to show that the
old political landmarks of the Bourbonism
which has controlled Missouri since
reconstruction are in process of being
wiped out.
In Ohio the Democrats have again lost
all the cities except Columbus and pos
sibly one or two others. in Colorado the
dispatches report that "Denver and nearly
all the smaller towns of the State show
Republican victories and in Michigan
the Republicans have probably carried
every county in the State The whole
drift of the returns is conclusive proof that
the uppermost desire of the people through
out the country is still to rebuke the
Democratic party There is no likelihood
that this feeling will have spent it's force
until after the Presidential election next
year, and in the meantime the Republi-
cans will have entrenched themselves in
power in every State and important munich
pality in the North.

A PREDIC TON.

The Pubfc Ledger which has been all
along, and still continues an out and. out
admirer of Mr.. Cleveland, has the following
in regard to the prediction of some of the
advocates of the free coinage of silver that
he would again be candidate for the
presidency:
"Their fears are groundless Mr.. Cleye-
land would not be candidate for the pre-
sidency in 1896 if the nomination were
offered him, and the next president will
not be Democrat, but a Republican. The
country has shown in all recent elections
that, despite its confidence in or respect
for the Democratic party, it was Mr.
Cleveland that stood with the country for
honest money against the Democrats and
Populists, who contended for dishonest
money. The country is not going to give
t. the party Of the Wilson Gorman Tariff
bill, the income-tax bill and the Seignior-
age Silver Coinage bill new lease of power
in 1896.

MISERABLE CRUMBS OF COM
FORT.

1t is really surprising what an immense
deal of comfort (?) some of our Maryland
Democratic contemporaries manage to ex.
tract from the result of the recent special
election for councilman held il. the Fiji
teenth and Sixteenth wards of Baltimore.
The Hartford Dcmocrm is particularly
ecstatic over this grateful political straw"
and interprets the majority of 81 as indi-
eating "that the Democratic tide is rising
in that city"
Now the simple fact is, that never in the
Infamous history of the political frauds
perpetrated in that city has the popular
Will been more ilagrantly disregarded, and
every barrier of decency and honesty broken
down that at this very election.
1t is a notorious fact that the "ring
machine marshalled every villianous gang
it could muster from every locality in the
city and invaded the two wards where the
election was being held with the double
purpose of terrifying respectable voters,
VIM p''''i"'iiiS ''HclS AZ lllt IOilS.
If is undoniably true that hundreds of
reputable citizens, mostly Republicans,
found, when attempting to vote that their
names had been voted on by roughs and
toughs.
And yet, with these undenied and unde-
niable facts staring them in the face,
Democratic journals of responsibility and
character, actually felcitate themselves and
their constituents upon such criminal per
formances, perpetrated at the polls, and
pretend to see in them the rising tide of
Democratic sentiment in the State.
The Democratic tide is out in Maryland,
because her people have lost confidence in
Democratic management, and they never
will welcome another flood tide of Dem
ocracy marked by fraud and violence.
Instead of being source of congratula-
ton and ielicitation, this special election
in Baltimore should be the object of con
demnation and denunciation by every
respectable journal in the State, regardless
of party.
