Review of the Iron Trade.

Great activity continued throughout
the week In all branches OF the iron |
and steel industry last week. A heavy
volume OF business was transacted In
MIG iron. with some little excitement
attending the latest sales in steel max
inv iron. It is more difficult than us
nal to give the exact tonnage OF iron
solo for Eastern distribution, as several
bouses have taken large orders for de-
livery In the Central West and even
west OF the Mississippi.
-Four different lots OF 10, 600 tons each
Of standard Bessemer iron have been
sold in the Pittsburg district. Fur
naces have obtained Si7 Ia Mahoning
and shenango valleys for 30, 900 tons
and $40. 80 for 1000 tons. The Steel
corporation does not confirm the report
that il is negotiating with the Bes-
seiner pig iron association for 40, 600
tons standard Bessemer
Basic sales have included zone lot OF
25 600 tons at Sls delivered in Eastern
Pennsylvania and several thousand
tons at $is 80 delivered in the same
district for shipment after the first Of
the year, while 30. 900 tons additional
are pending ia the same district for
this year 3 delivery.
Ten thousand tons OF basic was also
sold in the Central West at $40 90 TO

tons of southern and local paste was
sold for delivery in st. Louis One

Two coming state elections this fall
70 worthy of more thar passing notice
by the rest or the country-elections In
the states Of Maryland and Virginia.
In. Maryland the question is the dis
reimbursement Of the negro voters and
in..Virgina the election OF governor.
The effort to dlsfrancnise the negro
voter Of Maryland is the result of an
agitation. safer and saner than that OF
the..heated days succeeding the civil
war, to put the management OF the
state safely in the hands OF the white
population as against the ignorant
coIored vote The agitation Is not con-
fined TO Maryland alons but is general
throughout the south where white rule
is threatened by preponderance OF
black votes OF course 1t has its polit-
ical side. The negro vote IS a menace
to democratic rule in that il is general
" republican and the republican party
of Maryland is therefore against the
proposition. Were the conditions re-
yersed party alignment on this ques-
ton would also be reversed 80 that no
intelligent idea OF the merits OF the
question can be had from party align
ment In Maryland The democratic
party of Maryland is not united upon
this question and IL il ia defeated II

Gratis, after weighing the question OF

The past week has witnessed an
effort upon the part OF the democrat
party to pull itself together. A con-
ference of the leading spirits of the
party was held at Saratoga, New
York, to review the situation and see
il some united line Of action could not
be agreed upon for the union OF the
different sections of the party. In some
ways this action on the part OF the
Democrats Is like the conference pre-
vious to the campaign Of 1876 when a
conferecne of the leaders Of the same
party vas held TO reconstruct the party
that had been wrecked by the extrava-
gances OF the southern wing that had
precipitated the civil war. The sue
cess OF their efforts was seen in the
disputed election that followed when
an electoral commission was necessary
70 decide whether Tilden or Hayes wai
the rightful executive.
THE present condition Of the demo
crat party is fully as bad as its coDdi
ton succeeding the war. IL is discor
dant and disunited and the efforts o
the leaders to harmonize the discordan
{ factions will be watched with interest

We have been quite amused ut times
during our newspaper career at the at
titude Of readers relative to criticisms
that we have seen fit to make through
our columns. So circumsciibed Is the
field OF the country newspaper that
criticism is necessarily restricted TO
public officials or public policy and
when country newspaper editor
''roasts' anyone in this connection IL
is rarely done for personal reasons. The
editor would much prefer to say nice
things than to tread on his readers
toes. Unfortunately II is much more
effective remedy to quicken thespuoliC
pulse with pain than TO sooth It with
sweets and newspaper rarely cuts
much figure in community when it'
columns are wholly composed of honey.
/ The editor VINO does not ruffie az
someone's feelings rarely amounts e
mucn as a. force in his community. Al
the same time the editor recognizes
the searching fairness OF the American
people and seldom applies the prod JUS
TO make himself felt. IL he does so hi
prod soon turns into boomerang. Foi
that reason our readers whose toes W.
have pinched in the pastor may pinci
in the future would do we'll 20 look q
the matter from both sides and deter
mine II, on the whole. the criticism ha
not been fully warranted as puoli
measure before accusing the editor o
any personal interest in the matter.

The spectacle presented on Wall
street the day following the demise OF
the late Edward II. Hartman reminded
one'o a slaughter pen about which a
number OF vultures were gathered
ready to pick the hesh from the dead.
The vultures on Wall Street were he
man beings seeking to reap advantage
by the death OF prominent financier
by raiding the properties with which
he was connected.
