MS IM MKML Sffli Of Wltfcont N«w The Democratic papers which are try­ ing to figure out how they can put Cleveland in the Presidency without se­ curing the electoral vote of New York have engaged in a task which is beyond their powers. In order to win there are 223 electoral votes to be secured. The 6olld South, with Connecticut and New Jersey, have only 175 votes, or forty- eight less than the number necessary to elect. Under the district system of voting for President wh'.ch prevails in Michigan, the Democrats will secure three or four votes in that State. Let us call the number five, and make the Dem- cratic total 180 votes. Thus 180 are as­ sured tho Democrats without any ques­ tion. The Republicans are not claiming any of the ex-slave States, nor are they counting on carrying either Connecticut or New Jersey, while they will lose some votes in Michigan. But where are the Democrats going to get the other forty-three votes which they will have to secure if they are to win? If we give them Indiana they will still need twenty-eight votes, and if w« throw in Montana, which is considered somewhat doubtful, they will be twenty-five votes short yet. In what quarter should they look for enough votes to fill this gap? equal rights of citizens of the common­ wealth constituted, and the right of equal representation is necessarily in­ tended and Implied because that is the "right preservative of all rights." To strike at it is to strke at the very root of all government. It is no less than trea­ son. If it can not be punished as the crime that it is. it can certainly be out­ lawed and nullified by the highest court of the State. If the criminals cannot be put in prison they can at least be prevented from keeping themsolves on Uie throne of power.--New York Press. Ridiculous Lying. The Bourbon majority of the House Committee on Agriculture do not seem to realize the absurdity of asking the American people to accept and act upon partisan assertions which directly op­ pose facts known to the whole country. It was smart politics to assert vehe­ mently in the fall of 1890 that the Mc- Kinley law would so anger and turn against the United States all the na­ tions of the earth that we must lose our foreign market. Then there was enough color of probability about the predic­ tions of Democratic writers and speak­ ers to make their bold and ceaseless iteration of dismal prophecies effective in an election. Now every man who has the least knowledge of current events is informed that the ex­ ports of the United States have been greater 6inoe the enactment of the McKinley law than • ever before, and the whole country understands that the sales of farm products to Eu­ rope have been unprecedentedly large during the past year. In the face of such facts it is absurd to say that retal­ iation has followed the enactment of our "prohibitive" tariff and has dealt Says four cents a yard wages, while ha as to pay twelve cents a yard wages ia another cloth factory which .he operates at Bristol, Pa. And yet the working- man's clothing is as cheap here as it is in England. Superintendent Jackson, of the State Immigration Bureau at Castle garden, testified before a Con­ gressional investigation committee dm long ago as April 9. 1890, that "immi­ grants bring less baggage than for­ merly, since they found out. that cloth­ ing and household utensils are as cheap here as in the old country." < Why Cleveland Cannot W1 When Mr. Cleveland was elected In 1884 it was because a majority of our people believed that he would carry out the scheme of "Civil Service Reform." which was made the main issue , of his campaign. j \ During the four years that Mr. Cleve­ land was in office he lamentably failed as a civil service reformer, but, to cover up his shortcomings, he started a new issue, "Tariff Reform." What was the rosult on the popular vote? How did the voters <of this country re­ gard him after an experience of four years?

FOR SUMMER COMPLAINTS PERRY DAVIS' PAIN-KILLER BEST MEDICINE IN THE WORLD. Of course the boast that Massachusetts or Iowa will go Democratic are tales for the political marines. None of the .old salts like Cleveland, Harrity or Brice believe anything of the kind. If the Denxicrats this year carry any State that has heretofore been Republican they will be even more surprised than the Republicans at the result. Turn whatever way they will, the Democrats are confronted with the fact that they cannot win without the elec­ toral vote of New York. They pretend to be sure of securing Indiana, but, as is here shown, that State cannot give them the Presidency. The twenty-eight votee which they would still require would be an Insuperable barrier to suc­ cess unless _they gained New York. Without that "commonwealth they would have to carry two or three States hith­ erto Republican In Presidential years, and, in the present conditions, this is a task of formidable proportions. Allow­ ing them all the doubtful States except one, and they are still far from victory, j They must carry every one of them in order to win. Nor would the capture of i Kansas and Minnesota by Weaver help , them, for the Republicans can spare I these states if they carry New York and still be above the required 223 mark There is no hope for victory for the De­ mocracy, therefore, from the People's party diversion. The utmost that that organization can do, as the situation presents itself now, will not throw the election into the House of Representa­ tives. Evidently the battle at the polls will be decisive, and the Electoral Col­ lege will make the choice for President. The Republicans can win without New York, but that State is absolutely essen­ tial to Democratic success. The Dem­ ocrats may as well face this eventuality now as later on, for to this complexion the situation must come at last.--Globe- Democrat. ^ Gerrymandering Is Unconstitutional. The latest conspicuous step of the courts in the direction of equity and common sense, as against the technical­ ities of written law, is a long step, and one of the most important, taken in the history of the interpretation of the law by the American bench. It is the anti- gerrymander decision of the Michigan Supreme Court, of which fuller particu­ lars have come to hand. The Demo­ cratic Legislature's apportionment of As­ sembly and Senatorial districts is de­ clared unconstitutional, not on any technical point, but on the general pre­ sumption that it is the purpose of the constitution of a free commonwealth to make representation equal, and that the ratio of representation which it provides for shall govern the apportionment as far as practicable. The question of what is "practicable" is not to be settled by the standard of "might makes right," applied by un­ scrupulous party power, but by the un­ avoidable limitations which county ter­ ritory and populations put upon the realization of the ideal of justice The intent of the Michigan Constitution in qualifying the ideal standard by the word "practicable," or by such an equiv­ alent expression as the words "as nearly as may be" in tho New York Constitu­ tion, was to give the legislature no ex­ cuse for complaining that it had not the constitutional power to be fair. Such language is intended to enable legisla­ tures to approach perfect honesty in apportionment, not to enable them to get away from it. The law laid down by the Bupreme Court of Michigan ought to be just as readily recognized aa the law of New York. A constitution is by its very na­ ture baaed upon the . pnaeiple of the agriculture an "irreparable injury." The American people may like to be hum­ bugged, as Barnum used to say, but they at least do not like to be rediculed by clumsy lying in attempts to deceive them about serious things. Therefore it is entirely safe to predict that any and all efforts to make capital for the Democratic party out of charges that the McKinley law has injured agricul­ ture by blighting the export trade of the United States will fail, utterly and everywhere.--Cleveland Leader. Blocking: its Own Game. That's what the Democratic party is doing, very effectually. In its national convention it snubbed and maltreated the New York delegates, offended Hill and Tammany, and destroyed all pros­ pects of carrying that State. It adopted a free trade plank that will be an impassable barrier to ite success in the #„„„ „„„„„ ~i . r a < a other close Eastern States. It has thus ! °I M^£ley_elimd:^rn?l!h? barred itself out of the places where it has customarily gone for its best sup­ port, aside from the solid South. To compensate for this loss it must make important gains somewhere else. It must carry Western States which have ordinarily gone Republican. What is the prospect in this direction' What has it to offer in the way of inducments to the West? The free trade plank will probably be claimed as a bid for West­ ern support. But the West is not con- tables cn the Democrats and carried these States with a gain of over three hundred thousand votes. So t)i4»t in the States alluded to over half a trillion votes came to the conclu­ sion thai they had had all they wanted of "Cleveland and Reform." What the Tariff Means. Let va see. Four or five millions to be invented in one township, Roberta- ford, Bergen County, N. J., in new mill . . , „ buildings--all foreign capital--one En- cerning itself much about the tariff now; j giigh manufacturer of alpacas and mo- it is interested in finance. What has j hair9 to erect three mills; one Leipzig, Democracy to offer in the line of finance' that will attract the West? The candidate and the platform prom­ ise nothing. In fact, they are a guar­ anty that, if Democracy wins, the West has nothing to expect except that the government will be steered further away from the reform which it desires. Still, if Congress had taken favorable action upon silver, the Western States might have been Induced to overlook the ticket and platform, and hold the Republican administration responsible for defeat of free coinage provided the President had vetoed the bill. But Congress, acting under instructions of the party leaders, has shut off all hope in that direction by permanently shelv­ ing the Senate measure. In both the East and West the Demo­ cratic party has deliberately slaughtered its chances. It can no more carry Iowa or Colorado on an anti-silver platform than it can carry Massachusetts or Connecticut on a free-trade platform. Suppose it should succeed in turning Kansas and Nebraska over to the Alli­ ance, its losses In the East will more than offset any little gains it may get from this source. The Democratic convention and the Democratic Congress together have done much toward making the Republi­ can campaign work this year light and easy, with full assurance of reward.-- Kansas City Journal. WagcM In Kngland. The English Royal Labor Commis­ sion, which represents the highest pos- I sible authority in Great Britain, has just brought out the fact that the En­ glish railway companies pay their j porters sixteen shillings, or about $3.84 ! a week for an average of twelve hours a day, or about 64 cents a day for a day of "twelve hours. And yet in face of such facts there are good Democrats (we talked with one last Sunday) who will tell you that the only thing that brings people to this country is the cheapness of the land. General George A. Sheridan has just returned from England, and states that a man whom he knows has a cloth fac­ tor; in Bradford, England, where he Germany, house to remove its entire essential oil plant there.. Other "Mc- Kinleytzed" industries to be expanded the same way, and we have, the wicked New York World's news columns aa authority for the statement that it mean^i a four or five million investment in buildings alone in a single country. Well, that's only a beginning. The weekly pay roll of that county will make a big jump upward, property bought at farm prices will sell as city lots, and the busy life of a prosperous American factory town will supplant the dull monotony of a country village. And that awful protective tariff did it all! Frightened by the Alliance. So alarmed is Speaker Crisp at the danger of Democratic disruption caused by the growth of the People's party in his State, Georgia, that he has written a long letter to his constituents urging them not to desert the Democracy. He raises the "force bill" scarecrow and preaches tariff reform, ^nd says how­ ever virtuous and praiseworthy may be the motives of tbe third party, its suc­ cess means Democratic failure, and that it can only hope to secure its ends when the Democratic party is fully in power. This means, if it means anything, that if the Democratic party were in power it would carry out the Alliance platform, which includes free and fraudulent sil ­ ver, an income tax and free trade. We think Mr. Crisp, so far as this proposi­ tion is concerned, is right.y-Mail and Express. A Tariff Pletar<».
