Commercially, the East and the West
are natural enemies. The East is the
manufacturing section and cries Justify
for protection. The West is the agri-
cultural section, and to them protective
tariff is an imposition. If the South
will but withdraw from the most unen-
viable position of being a target for
both sections, it will not be long before
the East and the West will be fighting
each other with hammer and tongs.
They will come into the electoral
college with their hands on each other S
Threats. The South, free of entangling
alliances, will have the balance of pow
er; can command peace of either bellig-
erent and on its own terms.
OF course, the difficulty of CARRYING
out this suggestion is practically insur-
mountable. 1t is the difficulty of get
ting the consent of the voters to impose
this trust in the electors. twas exact
ly the trust the trainers of the COnsti-
tuition intended to impose in the electors,
but the people have taken it away from
them, and there is not much chance of
its being surrendered. We donot know
what argument could be presented that
would persuade the people of the South
to give over this power and authority to
the electors, and it seems a visionary
dream more than anything else; but its
discussion in leading Southern paper
is an Indication that the leaven of unrest
is working.
If the political history of the Southern
States that have gone into the doubtful
column is a criterion Maryland, Mis-
souri, and Kentucky, for instance-it
would seem that industrial development
is the most potent force in changing po-
liticalc nditions. In this State there has
grown up the large Independent vote,
but immigration has had much to do
with equaizing the parties. The same
thing is true of Missouri and Kentucky.
And in the South, wherever there is a
vigorous development, there seems to
be the greatest aversion to setting down
to the conditions of a one-party State
Unless the race question becomes more
acute in the next four years, thus driv-
ing white men into one party, as in the
past, it will be interesting to note de-
velopments. With a man like Mr. Taft
in the White House, who seems to be
animated not only by the friendliest dis
position toward the South, but who APP
pears to wish to do what he can to give
it the stimulous and vitalization that
are needed to get the best of its great
resources, it Is not at all impossible that
we shall witness political changes Of
much Importance in that section.

BACK TO WORK,

1t is estimated that over LOCO, 600
persons who have been working on short
hours during the recent months, or not
working at all, have been put to work
on full time since the Republicans car
ried the country two weeks ago.
The good tidings comes from every
state. Every day since the election all
the daily papers in the county have been
printing dispatches from various centers
telling of the reopening of mills and Of
the increase in the hours of work in
mills which had been running on short
time. And. of course, the papers have
been able to chronicle only a small por-
ton of this Improvement. The victory
registersed itself Immediately in an adj
vance in stocks along the whole line
When, during the campaign, the news
was published that the railways and
other great business, interests were
sending in heavy orders to the steel
mills, but making them contingent on
Republican victory on November 3, the
Democratic campaign managers de-
nounced these reports as canards, or as
attempts to coerce the workers into vot-
ing the Republican ticket. Democratic
newspapers which ought to have known
better also joined in this cry. The de-
velopments of the past fourteen days
show that the reports were genuine.

ways Association in this city this week
has resulted in the arrangement of de-
tails for a comprehensive program of
entertainment. 1t is a reasonable eX-
pectation that the consultation which
begins here next Tuesday will have i'm
portant results in promoting the cause
for which the organization stands.
Delegates from twenty states will be in
attendance. As many as 300 members
of the association will come from Phila-
delphia, New York, Boston and points
to the north of Baltimore. Nearly as
many more are expected from various
points in the South Atlantic States.
The scheme of an inner navigation
route along the Atlantic Coast has fully
assumed the aspect of national enter
prise. 1t is no longer project that is
| beng pushed in the interests of single
city or single state. The building of
the particular links of the route gam
immensely in probability of ultimate
realization from the extensiveness
which the proposal has assumed. Nearly
half the population of the country would
be commercially benefited by the open
ing of an inner navigation channel along
the entire extent of the Atlantic Coast.
During the two days of the session
more than twenty addresses will be de-
livered which in their diversity and
variation of thought and suggestion will
shed most illuminating light upon all
phrases and particulars of the comtem-
plated enterprise From the titling of
the subjects upon which the speeches
will he made it is to be understood that
each of the speakers will direct attention
to some link or division Of the proposed
waterway From this method of dis
cuss on there will be left untouched no
problem connected with the great en-
terprise. AS a result of the formal
speeches and the informal discussions
the fact will be brought out with i'm
pressive clearness that the comtem-
plated inner waterway along the Allan
tic Coast is of national Importance
because of the fact that it will promote
the commercial advantages Of score of
states and of two score important cities.
No other city is more intensely inter
ested in the rea lization of the proposed
scheme than Baltimore. This city will
be midway station on the long route
and the commerce of this port will be
given an impetus both to the Northward
and the Southwark. The convention
which assemblies here next Tuesday is
one in which this city is peculiarly in
terested. And Baltimore is peculiarly
interested in making this convention IN
all respects success. 1t will not be,
as has been remar ed before, an affair
Of mere local significance, but it will be
really Of high degree Of local signifi-
canoe IN the particular of two of the
most important links Of the proposed
clain of waterways.

PAY OF The CLERGY.

The annual convention Of the Protes-
tant Episcopal diocese of New York has
fixed 81, 200 as the minimum salary for
curates, with a residence in ADDITION, or
%1,So0 as the minimum for married
clergYmen. This is a progressive step
that strikes at one of the disgraces Of
Christian churches The New York
diocese proposes to bring about reform
by helping weak parishes from the gen
eral fund, and the experiment will be
watched with interest by all denomina-
tions.
One of the most prevalent misconcep-
tons is that minister and his family
should be able and contented to live on
a smaller income than other folks The
burden, as was pointed out in New York,
does not fall only upon the clergyman,
who work is interfered with by harass-
ments of inadequate support and Of
debt, but upon his wife and children a
condition so common that it is scarcely
eXcites comment, though it is rehec-
ton upon Pensioners which should
make them blush.
Of course, one great difficulty that is
encountered is when establishing new
nous of worship, organizing new con-
gregations and planting churches in
poor, or sparsely settled, or uncongenial
fields. A houseful of poor folks, or
mere handful Of reasonably prosperous
people cannot afford to pay minister
living salary; yet it would not do to re-
frain from founding a new parish, or to
deny to a community Of public worship
along UNCONVENTIONAL lines. for that
reason alone. Hence many examples
of poorly paid clergymen. Another
Truthful cause of such cases is the null
tipliclty Of denominations Thus often
a town of moderate size has more
churches than it can possibly support in
any thing approaching dignified and
comfortable style
But even eliminating the absolutely
poor or denominationally overcrowded
localities any new fields. the shame of
small salaries to American ministers
sfill remains among people who can af-
ford to do better and in towns where
paucity of resources is not apparent. 1t
Is lack of generosity and appreciation,
a want of that comprehension which
comedies the laborer to be worthy of his
hire, and failure to realize that men
and women come to regard the deserts
of a minister and his family as they rec
ognize and reward associates and assis-
tants in business or enterprise the clergy
will be more prosperous.

POLITICAL UNREST OF SOUTHERN
STATES,

Iii not an easy matter to tell what
Republican gains in the South mean,
but the strength generally shown by
Mr. Taft in Southern states in the last
election has starte discussion as to the
probability of a breaking up Of the
solidarity of that section.
The review Of the vote in the South
that was printed in yesterdays News
showed some surprising results 1t
would be easy to dispose of the returns
by saying Jhar the South is so strongly
Democratic aud that there is so little
chance OF its going Republican, that
the people lose interest and do not come
out to vote because they know that the
party is SAT-; that a slump in the
Democratic vote in Texas, for instance,
IS no more significant than the enormous
slump which the Taft vote showed in
Pennsylvania, as compared with that of
Roosevelt, his plurality being 100, 600
less. But this does not dispose of the
question at all, because results in Mis-
souri, Kentucky, Tennessee, and last,
but not least, MARYLAND, prove that the
South is by no means impregnable in a
political sense, and that, with the Re
publican party once firmly committed to
the policy OF letting it work out its own
salvation on the negro question, the
time is not far off when states that Sc
ceded from the Union will split away
from the Democratic party
It is manifest that the South is be-
coming restless under conditions that
give it so little voice in the conduct Of
the Government, and, indeed, of the
conduct of the Democratic party's ma
tional policies. 1t is tired of feeding on
husks, and many of it's best citizens are
beginning to ask if it is not time for
parties to divide on something other
than racial lines. The growth Of manu-
featuring industries has done much to
bring about the possibility of a new
alignment, and it is certain that this
contingency is being debated now with
more real interest than has been the
case hitherto.
One suggestion made for increasing
the South's influence in the councils of
the nation is unique, to say the least.
1t is in brief:
"Form a Southern party. Elect our
electors by the Legislatures of the re-
spective Southern states Put into the
Electoral College 1876 sovereign electors
absolutely without instruction. Select
men Of high purpose, statesmen imbued
with patriotism, men with constructive
ideas and loyal to the South first, last
and always.
"The more one Studio, the suggestion
the more attractive it will become 1t
is not novel. 1t is perfectly feasible.

that it would be effective
