Tillmanism is on the decline in South
Carolina. No other construction can
be put upon the big popular majority for
McLaurin. The movement that brought
Tillnan to the front was really q revolt
of the average voter of the State against
the dictation and usurpation of class
that had arrogated to themselves for
scores of years the right to rule the state.
Tillman shrewdly placed himself at the
head of the movement, and the wave
bore him into prominence and power.
But eventually he became worse dicta-
tor than the oligarchy he helped depose,
and it was inevitable that there sh )uld
be a reaction that should depose him.
But though it brought to the front many
interruptions men and gave to them
prominence and power of which they were
entirely unworthy, the uprising of the
masses will undoubtedly eventually re-
suit in good. Since the war and before
it the government of South Carolina has
been republican in form merely. The
real rulers were an oligarchy which per-
petuated itself. The day of that kind OF
government is doubtless over, and the
masses, at least those of them who are
white, will have something to say as to
who their rulers shall be and how they
shall be governed in the future.

A government official at Dyea has
written to the treasury department. an
account of the condition of things on the
Skaguay which is the most largely used
overland route to the Klondyke. The
date of the letter is August % and there
were at that time about 1000 men and
1000 horses between tidewater and the
beginning of the Skaguay trail, and $500
more men were likely to arrive before
September Is. 1t was regarded by the
best judges as impossible that more than
90 per cent of this number could get
through to Dawson City before winter
sets in. The remaining 80 per cent viii
be caught on the trail, and those that
survive and get back to tidewater will
have to winter at Skaguay. The writer
said that if the rush continued two
weeks longer, hundreds must perish on
the trail which is exceedingly dangerous
after the first of October. "The situa-
ton" continues the writer ais appalling
and it is impossible for one to describe
the mad rush to the gold fields. Pro
visions are already scarce and prices of
many articles arc prohibitory to men of
ordinary means. - The warning comes
too late to do much good, even if it would
have done good at any time which is
doubtful SO bereft of reason seem the
people who have started for the Klon-
dyke. "If the rush continued two weeks
longer" wrote this official at August 22,
sthundreds must inevitably perish -
The rush has continued and still con-
tinues, and the disaster which he pre-
dicted can scarcely now be averted. 1t
seems inevitable that hundreds Of per-
sons will perish from starvation and
cold, and that hundreds of others will,
even if they succeeded in maintaining
life, suffer untold hardships. Perhaps
one in hundred may certainly not more
may strike gold in paying quantities.

CURRENT OMMENT.
ALTGELD ON SILVER.
providence Journal. J

Further indications that the free coin
age of silver is not sure to be the chief
rallying cry of the disconnected hereafter
is found in ex-Gov. Altgeld S Labor Day
speech at Philadelphia. This gentleman
may fairly be classed as an intellectual
leader among the radicals; he practically
wrote the Chicago platform and he had,
in reality, more to do with the conduct of
the last Democratic national campaign
than almost anybody else. When, there
fore, he passes lightly over the money
issue and enla ges on other alleged griev-
ances of the downtrodden, we may fairly
assume that the smaller men will present
ly be following his example. What he is
especially denouncing now is corporate
monopoly and its influence both in politics
and in business. 1t is fruitful subject,
and one which will easily enable the
agitators of the Altgeld stamp to carry on
a very promising campaign in any
coming election. 1t must not be under
stood that the Ex-Governor has deliberate
~ abandoned silver; he still processes to
believe that RECOMMENDATION is necessary
to the welfare OF the country. But APP
parently he feels that it win be better to
make some broader appeal to the hosts of
