WHY DEMOCRACY Is LANE.

A party like the Democratic has one weak
ness from which II can never escape Having
shown for many years want Of sincere belief
and purpose, II cannot make plain people count
it sincere in any belief It may choose 10
avow or honest in any purpose it may pro-
fess. 1t is supposed to be all the time setting
up false pretences in order TO win votes and
ready to sacrifice any conviction or 10 break
any pledge in order 10 get Office Even the
most candid and sincere Of Democrats are not
aware how the record of their party for the
last forty years has first caused and then
justified such a feeling. Still less are they
aware how greatly their own conduct has con-
trihuted to cause il. Again and again they
have been so anxious for the success of the party
that they have given il all their efforts. al
though by all who knew them at all they were
known to be entirely opposed to the beliefs and
purposes upon which. in its public appeals to
voters. the party based its chief claim to
success.
Such Democrats knew perfectly we'll in 1854
that the war was not wicked nor tyrannical. nor
was II "a failure" They knew perfectly well
In 1868 that payment Of the debt in green
backs would be dishonest and ruinous They
knew perfectly well that II was gross un-
truth In 1876 10 denounCe the resumption act
as hindrance 10 resumption. and that the
Democratic party, with its soft money and
repudating tendency, had been the only
hindrance. Equally well they knew in 1880
that the judgment OF the electoral commission
which seated President Hayes had defeated n
great fraud and the later Democratic attempt
by bribery and cipher dispatches TO steal the
government. So they knew In 1884 that their
party would not dare when in power to re-
store free coinage of silver as we'll as gold.
or 10 enact a tariff for revenue only and their
own acts afterward rescued the country from
the madness which they had cOuntenanced
during the canvass. Again, in 1855 they knew
that no business man Of good sense among
them wished the Wilson tariff enacted and yet
the party chiefly appealed 10 the people on
that issue. They knew equally well in 1882
that the Mckinley act which they denounced
was then giving the country greater prosperity
than IL had ever before enjoyed. Mutltudes Of
sensible Democrats knew equally well three
years ago that the free silver and free riot plat
form was both infamous and ruinous and yet
great numbers Of them supported their party
and excused themselves by saying that the
platform meant nothing
Now this same party is preparing TO make
hostility to trusts its main issiie-the very
same party which put through the tariff Of
1894 by selling out TO the Sugar Company and

TIE GREAT NANUFACTTRED EXPORTS.

The feature which first commands attention
in the official abstract of exports for the last
fiscal wear Is that in several important classes
NJ manufacture such as iron and steel cop
nor leather and others. in which prices have
heen advanced and especially in cotton manu-
factlre. the exports Of domestic products were
remarkably well maintained in June. The aggre-
gate of the twelve principal classes Of manu-
featured products was SIS 15535I. an increase
of 81. 100000 over last year, compensatng for
a large part Of the decrease In value or the
great staples Exports of the iron class were
S3OOO 900 larger than in May. in wood manu-
features 100000 larger in ocake 100000,
while In cotton manufactures the remarkable
gain Of ST. 100 900 over May was recorded. This
feature is of especial importance, because
otherwise the extraordinary gain in manufact-
ured exports might be supposed a result of
conditions which existed only during the first
half of the fiscal year. In fact the gain for
the wear in the principal manufacturing classes
was S54 100000 of which S14,000,00O, or more
than fourth, was in the quarter ending with
June
The record for the year Is the more crafty
Ing because it shows heavy and continued In
crease in the more important branches of man
ufaCture. The great increase III tne iron 'ldSS
is mainly in forms completed for use and es-
pecially In machinery. The Department only
includes machinery and tools of the value of
S49.145.765 AS products Of iron. but does not
so include others in value so 69l 541 of which
iron is the material of chief value-namely.
agricultural implements. cars and carriages
cycles and scientific instruments. Why sew
Ing machine or typewriter should be reckoncd
a product Of iron, but a bicycle should not be
so reckoned why cars should be omitted, hut
wheels included, it Is not easy to say. In the
following statement the exports Of these artl-
cles are added to the exports Of iron products
officially given, and with machinery and tools
are included cutlery. firearms, safes and scales;
other products in forms requiring no further
manufacture include rails nails builders hard
ware aud wire: and Of the uncompleted or mis-
celaneous products a good part. if its nature
were known. would doubtless fall into one or
the other classes. The values are given in
millions Of dollars and decimals. so that the

A TEXAS INCIDENT.

A news item from a recent issue OF The
Dallas Times Herald" has some significance in
view Of the much proclaimed devotion Of South
ern manhood TO the protection Of the purity Of
homes and the punishment Of the wretches who
make attacks on girls and women. The whole
sale lynching Of negroes In some States has
been excused and ever defended as the effort Of
n high spirited and chvalrous people in defence
of womanhood, and anybody who mildly sug-
gested that the burning Of negroes was not a
step toward the higher civiza ton. even when
they deserved death and that 1t was not justi-
fed on mere suspicion Of petty offences which
are ordinarily punished by light fine or short
Imprisonment, the all sufficient reply expected
to silence him was the question, Would you
'1lke to have your daughter attacked by black
brute"
That was not exactly good logic but perhaps
good logic ought not to be expected under the
circumstances Certainly, however, a reasona
BILE consistency may be expected and a certain
breadth and sincerity in this regard for women,
which cannot satisfy itself without cooking the
livers of those who wrong them. If this deep
passion for virtue amounts to anything if 1t is
not merely preteXt for venting savage hate on
negroes In barbarous orgies, It must concern it.
as well as white women from black brutes. Not
that we should recommend the burning of white
assailants at the stake or the distribution of
slices of their livers among the friends Of black
victims We should regard such practice as
quite as destructive Of civilization as the use
which now prevails. But II Is not unreasonable
to ask that the Southern courts should give
black women merely the protection from the
brutality of white men that the law promises
a guarantee of the reality of The vrtuous emo
tons which prompt a small proportion of the
negro lynchngs. and for the sake OF which the
country is expected TO tolerate all negro lynch
ing whether for assault. horse stealing or ''m-
pudence" But that ordinary Justice of the law
Is lust what 1t seems coored victim cannot
obtain. TO Judge from the Dallas case On Au-
gust Leonard Parsons, young white man,
was on trial for assaultng twelve year old
coored girl The facts were clear. The guilt
was proved beyond a shadow of "A doubt There
was every reason 10 expect conviction. But
the verdict OF the jury was mot guilty The
Court was completely taken aback, but after re-
covering from his surprise Judge Clint said to

names were carried on the rolls. Forty-three
thousand were dropped during the fiscal year
"a ,345 because Of death and SS41 because OF re-
marriage On the other hand, 40.991 new claims
were allowed so that the number OF pensioners
stood on June 30 last at 991 $40. The decrease
in expenditures during the year was much more
marked. the total falling from S144,65l,OoO In
1897. .9S TO S13S 253 900 in 1S9s'99. This last Is
the smallest sum disbursed since the new condl-
tions created by the Dependent act have had TO
he faced and reasonable assurance OF a further
natural shrlnkage In the annual expenditures is
to be found in the fact that three millions less
were paid out last year than three years ago,
when the list Of pensioners was fully twenty
one thousand shorter than 1t is to-day. How
slight an addition to pension burdens the war
with Spain will make may be guessed from the
statement that. although 1896 claims have
been filed for disabilities incurred in that brf
contest only 295 have so far been passed on
favorably. Altogether. the outlook for dmin-
ished pension account has greatly improved, and
II is not too much to expect that pension pay
ments abnormally increased by the legislation
Of 1890, may soon begin to sink by several
millions annually.

that Tammanv witnesses. not being sustained
hv his proximity and a fresh recollection OF

snectful and communicative Of late than the
first hatch was and that they have strength
ened in a marked degree the belief when he
himself originally created. that In the eyes or
Tammapy New-York exists exclusively for the
r,rnose of giving a rich subsistence to the
magnates of the organization.
From that list Mr.. Croker will not be sur
nrIsed 70 find the name Of Mr.. Sheehan still
missing. hut he may possibly be panied to DIS
cover that while he has been buffeting the
Atlantic Mr. Sheehan has been attacking MS
conduct and reputation more savagely than
ever before. and apparently intrenchng him
self more firmly in his own district. In short Mr.
Croker will find that there Is Democratic
fight on which he cannot afford TO desplse'
and that at the same time the general public
has been forming an opinion of Iammany
government which. to he sure. Is not new. but
which shows menacing signs Of strength.
Looking toward Saratoga, Mr.. Croker VIII dls-

edge of the fact that Governor Hogg suddenly
converted a projected launching of the Van

Of July emotions into a Bryan ratihcation

disturbed by that unexpected performance
Altogether it is to be said that Mr.. Croker
