THE GALVESTON DIS AsTER.

The disaster at Galveston is one Of the
worst in the history of the country. and
it grows in extent as details are rec eived.
1000 Is the lowest estimate now of the dead,
and the number may rise to 5000. At
least five thousand families are absolute
ly shelterless, while the majority of the
remainder have met with heavy losses.
Not a single building in the city is I'M
damaged, while q large per cent of them
are in ruins. The city is little smaller
than Portland in population. 1t is
built entirely upon an island which is
connected with mainland by bridges, or
more properly was connected, for all
the brides have been swept away. Even
in the highest part of the city the water
rose to the seats of the street cars, and
in the hotel offices 1t was three
feet deep. In the lower sections of the
city the water rose to the second story
windows and hundreds of houses were
demolished. What were spared by the
water were destroyed or badly damaged by
the fierce hurricane. Today Galveston is
a city of ruins. Thousands of its people
have lost their lives, and other thousands
who escaped death ara suffering for food
and shelter. What adds good deal to the
magnitude of the calamity is the fact
that there is no insurance to Offset in any
degree the losses. When a city is de-
stroyed by fire a considerable part of the
loss is recouped by insurance, but there
is no insurance against flood and hurri-
cane. The people whose property has
been destroyed at Galveston must bear the
whole loss, except so far as the charitable
may contribute toward their assistance.
Prompt aid is needed and Portland should
not be behind other cities in forwarding
pecuniary assistance.

The situation in China is still mixed.
According to the latest reports France
has agreed to join Russia and withdraw
her troops to lien Tsin whenever cir
cumstancies will permit-a pretty elastic
condition it Will be observed-and the
United States viii do the same, or, per-
haps, Withdraw entirely from the coun-
try. Great Britain, Germany and Japan
seem inclined to keep their troops at
Pekin for the present. but 1t does not
appear that they have come to q definite
decision on the point. While this lack OF
thorough accord on the part OF the powers
is somewhat discouraging there is en-
'couragement to hope for an early settle-
ment In the apparent awakening on the
part OF the Chinese government to the
necessity OF early action looking toward
peace, which has manifested itself by
clothing Earl LII and Prince Ching with
plenary power to open negotiati ons and
carry them to a conclusion.

torial ticket in the field that would tend
to draw something besides Democratic
voters. But they are doing nothing OF
that kind. On the contrary they have
selected q ticket that they know Will be
beaten and that Will help beat Bryan.
They are simply looking out that their
grip on the party in New York is not
loosened. Coler's nomination might
loosen 1t and his election surely would.
Therefore Coler was not to be tolerated
for a moment.

voted against it, and it does not seem
to have been popular anywhere. We are
inclined to think shat an auditor might
be substituted for the council with good
results, hut to have an auditor and
council both would seem to be super
1uous. The sInallness of the vo6e on the
proposition tends to show how useless the
referendum would be which the Popu-
list are demanding. Here was an i'm
portant amendment to the constitution,
recognized in the platforms of both
parties and discussed conside rably in the
newspapers, and yet only an insignii-
can't fraction of the voters took interest
enough in it to express an opinion either

A BOSTON VIEW.

The election in Cumberland County.
OF a Prohibition sheriff who has promised
to enforce the prOhibitOry law in that
shire, and especially in the city Of Port
land, is of greater importance than APP
pears upon the surface. In the State Of
Maine, as elsewhere, the citiess with
their large populations, have important
influence upon the political as we'll as the
social aspect of the entire State. The
cities In the State of Maine have not been
strenuous for the repeal of the prohibi-
tory law, for the very good commercial
reason that it keeps the liquor trade al
most exclusively inside these cities. In
case the liquor dealers OF Portland are
forced to shut up shop, as is not unlikely
IN view of the earnest zeal of the newly
elected sheriff, they will probably en-
deaVOr to secure a repeal of that law,
and in this effort they are likely to have
larger support than they would have in
any such attempt were the present easy
conditions TO continue in that city.
SO long as the Maine liquor dealers can
sell with 1mpunity (save an annual
fine which amounts In effect to a license
to sell), they rather like the law which
shuts off competitiOn.in the surrounding
country; and so long as the citizens of
Portland can get their alcoholic supplies
without difficulty the law does not
trouble them. But enforce the law and
SO drive the liquor dealers out of bust
ness ana put Une drinkers to more or less
trouble to get a drink, and there will be
TWO classes of citizens who Will fight hard
to secure the laws repeal. and there will
be plenty Of others who for business.
political or social reasons win work with
them.
1t would be a curious outcome if the
election of a Prohibition sheriff in Cum
berIand county has opened the way to a
repeal of the prohtbitory law.

But the real decision of this campaign
is to be made in the line OF states begin
ming with New York ana extending
through Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, We
need not go to Vermont and Maine to see
how these are to vote. We have better
data In their own voting and the cOndf-
tion OF their politics. The Democrats
may have Indiana; that state can be con-
ceded to them without placing them
practically nearer carrying the election
than they were four years ago. They
cannot have New York; such prospects as
they might have had there have been lost
to them by their own folly; it is a sig
n11cant symptom that Mr.. George Fred
Williams, perhaps as wild q claimant or
strength as their party contains, comedies
That the Republicans are to carry New
York. For the rest, we regard Ohio and
Illinois as r0CK-ribbed states for McKfn-
ley. Thus the election is to be secured
to him without reasonable doubt, and our
own belief is that he will have it by an
ample electoral majority.

There is just about as much sunshine
in cuoumbers as there Is comfort in the
Maine election tor our Bryanite friends.
People who can extract sunshine from
the former can no doubt get conf ort
from the latter but no others But the
Democrats say their vote has increased,
while the Republican has fallen off. That
is true, but there is no real comfort in
that, when the causes are considered.
Thousands OF Democrats stayed at home
four years ago out Of sheer disgust, and
hundreds voted the Republican ticket
This year some of the Disguised ones
are less disgusted, because the free silver
issue is less apparent, and have again
voted with their party. But the Demo
cratic party has made no real gains and
the Republican suffered no real losses. The
Republicans have carried the State by
majority larger than ever received before
except in a single year.

A correspondent of the Lon Ion Times
at Pekin makes the direct charge that the
attack upon the ambassadors was ordered
by the imperial government, and that the
edict went forth to put them to death if
their stronghold was broken down. This is
an exceedingly serious accusation, and If
it is proved it is hard to see how the
powers can refrain from inficting severe
punishment on the imperial governments
how. indeed, they can refrain from
tearing it down and setting up another,
for government that Will order the
murder Of ambassadors cannot, it would
seem, be trusted to protect the lives Of
foreigners in the future. A treaty made
