There is substantial ground for the rumor that the Convention will ndoise two of the candidates on the Democratic .State ticket, William J. lliennen for Auditor General and Max well Stevenson for Congressman at large. Libor has no truer friend than Black why not endorse him, too ? The number of persons killed at Charleston by the late earthquake, In cluding those who died from their inju ries, is about forty-Dve, of whom fifteen w re white and thirty colored. LTp to Ltst Tuesday evening about half a million of dollars had been subscribed in the large cities ana towns for the relief o. the pressing wants of the people of the unfortunate city, aud of that sum about two hundred thousand dollars had been received by the Mayor. We stated last week that II. D. Pat ton. Chairman of the Prohibition State Committee, had resigned. Patton's resignation almost on the heels of bis election is said to have been caused by two reasons first, tbat he was elected on tbe second dy of the session of the late Prohibition Convention by less than a quorum of the State Committee., his vote being only 58 out of 201 members composing the full committee and sec ond, because his election for the place was distasteful to Mr. Wolfe, the can didate for Governor, as well as to most of the leaders of the party throughout the Sta'.e. A. A. Stevens, of Tyrone, who was Chairman of the Prohibition Convention, has called the State Com mittee together at the Bolton House, ILirrisbtirg, to-day to till the vacancy. A full meeting of the Committee is ex p -cted and it seems to be conceded that Mr. Stevens will be Patton's successor. Tiie State election in Arkansas on Monday Iaat resulted in the re-election of Governor Hughes by about 25,000 majority and a Democratic Legislature, The State flection took place in Vermont on Monday las: and of course tLe Repablicau ticket for Governor and Legislature carried the day. On Monday next the election in Maine will take p! ice and judging from the vigorous ef forts that Mr. Blaine and his frirnds ave making to carry the State it looks as if they are badly scared. The Prohibi tionists under the lead of Neal Dow are making a strong fight, not for Constitu tional Prohibition, for the State has that now, but for the election of a Leg islature that will pass the necessary laws to enforce it, his allegation being that the last Republican Legislature didn't f;.ke any r?ally effective steps in that direction, although pledged to do so. Does it not look passing strange that after Neal Dow and his ultra temperance friends have ben tinkering at the liquor question in Maine for thirty years, and have at last got it hedged around with Constitutional Prohibition, that they should now be engaged in an effort to ware it? enforcement by the Legisla ture ? Could anything be more conclu sive of the question, does Prohibition piohibit V The struggle in Maine now in favor of Prohibitory Legislation be comes still more singular when we cou eider that two years ago the vote for St. John in Maine was only 2100, that the vote for Eustis, the Prohibition candi date for Governor, was only 11'.), whi'.p the vote cast on the same day for the Prohibitory amendment was 70,7s.'5. The Democratic candidate for Gov ernor, Chauncey F. Black, was serena ded at his residence in tbe vicinity of York, on tbe evening after hi9 nomina tion, and delivered a brief address in re.lioDse to tbe compliment tendered bim. Mr. Black is a plain spoken man and Lis language can always be easily understood. In tbe course of his remarks be spoke of the rights of the workingman as follows ; This, my fellow citizens, is to be an Regressive campaign, if I have power to make it so ; and by this term I mean that we hoj to raise tbe people of all conditions and in all employments to an Retortion of the rights of the many, to the full enjoyment of their natural and lawful privileges nndt-r the constitution of the Common weaiin. e a.K every : y'M) l citizea. whelber Republican or !..mocrat, to stand up with us for the enforcement of these organic principles i of state Government wh'ch we all uni ted in ordaining.

I Without regard to past party affilia- j tions, there is a very friendly feeling for Lieutenant Governor Black among the agriculturists of ttaa State. Like his il lustrious father, who was a plough-boy in his youth, and tilled the soil to his latest day, Chauncey F. Black has close sympathy with the farming interests of the Stale ; and it is not surprising, tho1 very significant, that an entirely inde pendent agricultural journal, like the Meadville Jlnald, should sue a it iu such terms as these of the Democratic nomi inee for Governor : "The Democrats have nominated a man for Governor who stands out so prominently an advocate of the things which are so closel identified with the farmers' welfarb that we deem it our duty to call their special attention to them. First, the farmers want an hon est tax law ; one that will place the bur dens of taxation more equally upon the property protected by government. The other is a law to enforce the 17th article of the people's constitution The people are ground lo the dust because iu viola tion of the constitution we pay exorbi tant freight for what we both seil and buy. " Governor Black has explained his position ou these questions so often that every farmer and mechanic in the State knows where he stands. He will be, as i he always has been, the friend of the i people. No monopoly or corporator can 1 nrsuaflfi him t dnsprt the n-m!e Of the State. He is in himself a sufficient platform, aud no pledge made by the Convention was necessary. "No man in Pennsylvania, save per haps his father, has said and done so much as Chauncey F. Black to induce the people to elect a Legislature, and the Legislature, when elected, to pass an honest tax bill and an uncompromi sing railroad bill to enforce the letter of the 10th and 17th articles of the Consti tution. No truer or abler friend of the people's constitution can be found in the Commonwealth. He stands on all these Questions above nartv. and i a firm tiieud of and believer of the people." Thomas A. Armstrong, editor of the Labor Tribune, published in Pitts burg, and who was the Labor candidate for Governor in 1882, refers to William J. Brennen, the Democratic nominee for Auditor General, as r'ollows : "The nomination of William J. Bren ren for Auditor General of this State, by the late Democratic convention, was a meritorious act, and one which we be lieve the miners of the State will not forget to reciprocate. It would seem to us as if su?h auspicious omens ought to cheer us on to make a manly effoit to have him elected. Mr. Brennen has al ways been a true friend of the miners, and if they can be instrumental in hav ing him elected they will wield a power in politics they have never had before a power which the miners in this State badly need. They have been deprived of rights they never would have been deprived of had they concentrated their forces upon their friends." Witix regard to the prospect of a Eu ropean demand for the surplus wheat crop of this country, a New York dis patch of a late date says : A prominent fact in the financial situation of the time is the favorable reports from Europe of demand for wheat. In England the crop is ten per cent, below the average, and in France alwut nine per cent, below the crop of last year. Australia this year is an importer instead of an export er of wheat, and is drawing supplies from India and California. We are now exporting wheat freely, and the effect is felt in the foreign exchanges, an effect which is of a more permanent natuie than that produced by the export of se curities, which are apt to be returned to us at a time when we can '.east comfort ably take them up. Th Earthquake at Charleston. Tbe following extract from tbe letter of the Charleston correspondent of the New York TForltl dated on Friday last will be found interesting, and will ena ble our readers to comprehend the con dition of the ill-fated city three dys after the earthquake : It is not too much to say tbat attention centres this morning in Capt. F. W. Dawson, of the AVjcs and CV wrier. I'erhap3 tbe opinion of a great news paper in its community was never shown in a more striking degree. Above tbe Mayor or the city officials, or indeed any other person or element, the public appeals to Capt. Dawson for advice, suggestion and help. The World cor respondent found him in his office this morning busied in the attempt to get out the first paper worthy of the name since the earthquake shock. In reply j to inquiries he said : "The trouble with j our people is tbat they are facing an ! unknown foe. It is something tbat they have never been called upon to confront before. When a storm ap proaches, they know what to do, they can calculate the probable damage to life or property, and have some warning of its coming, but here i3 an unknown quantity as mysterious as terrible. It m,ay come in a moment ; it may not come in a hundred years. It may engulf tbe whole city, or simply shake a chim ney loose from its foundations. It is the mystery that appals the people as much as the actual danger." I asked Capt. Dawson when he looked for a revival of confidence and a new impulse among the people, quoting the case of a man who said he expected to sleep on tbe grass Indefinitely. "Y'our friend," said Capt. Dawson, "who in tends tosleep on tbe grass for the winter, will cure himself in a day or two, when he finds that his house has not fallen, and will creep back into it. There was one-third less people camped out last night than the night before. Without serious disturbance to-day there will not be half as many to-night. The trouble !s not over, however. When a man gets back into his house and finds that his walls do not tumble about his bead, it bus junt Legnn. He is in the nsual caf-e j a man of modest means, who owus his i home and depends upon bis salary, or i lives upon a moderate income. lie finds his houe is wrecked. There are seams ; in the walls, Ihe foundation is wrenched, ! anj jt wiU cost perhaps a year's income ' or double as much and even five times i .... , ach, to repair his home. For this j delay lie gets no recompense, excep; to ! make his home habitable. It is an in- vestment from which he gets no income and is a clerir and often crushing loss. This is where the great suffering will come." "Do you think the houses will stand, as a gerjer-il IV..g ?'' "Iljai is" ot cuuioe, a vital question. have just telegraphed to Gen. Drum, asking that Government engineers te sent here to make critical eximination, to consult with our local architects and buildtrs, and give an opinion that may be relied upon. Our city engineer is at work now. My own house, I believe, is as safe as it was before the earthquake. It is veiy strong, and while severely i wrenched I believe it will bold out. It i is impossible to say, however. The house that appears to be least huit may be fatally injured, and those with gaping Ktanil forever. A severe gale would throw down hundreds per haps of houses ; a severe rain would ma terially damage buildings and furniture. There are very few roofs iu Charleston that would hold water today. We must simply hope that we shall be spared any further inflict;on until we shall have been able to put our houses in order." "Is relier needed badly by the people?" "Very badlv. I declined relief for Charleston in the case of the cyclone, because I did not think it urgent. It .a very urgent now. The city council is now in session, and will devise apian of disbursement besides making an appro priation. AnJ private subscriptions in Charleston will be large and the present indications are that we shall have large heln frnm nutaide. We OW6 it to the contributors to see that this disbursal is honest and just. I advised the forma tion of a committee of the city council acting jointly with a committee of citi zens who will give their time to tbe dis bursement of whatever funds are on hand. The fact that the relief money would take an unusual course makes it more necessary that it should be distrib uted with exact justice. It will be needed to give to private property hold ers to repair their homes with. 1 know of a widow with children whose estate oonsists of two handsome dwellines and a small amount of stocks. It will require more than her entirecash fortune to repair the two dwellings and make ihem habitable. There are thousands of casts where the houses can not be re paired by their owners, and unless they have outside help these houses will stand as a menace to their owners and to the city. It will require a large sum to ena ble us to make our city fairly habitable before the winter season. "Is the city prepared to do business with its outside customers?" "As well as ever. Our docks are in perfect shape, our warehouses are all right, our merchants are as strong com mercially as they ever were, our banks are all open and doing business. We are not only prepared to handle consign ments as well as ever, but we need them more than ever. Commercially speaking, Charleston is in as good fix as she was before the earthquake, and needs all the help that can come from legitimate bus iness." The opinions of leading business men as to the probable effect upon the com merce of Charleston differ. The World correspondent interviewed Col" J. D. Jervey, Collector of the Port, in Lis office at the Custom House. "I do not think," he said, "that the city's trade will suffer much. The check of the last two days caused a loss of course, but by no means a serious one. Tbe facilities for con ducting business have not been greatly inj ured. The wharves are intact, the warehouses still itand, nearly all of the ! stores can be safely used, and most of I the manufactories are In running order, j One of tbe rice mills is badly damaged, ; but the others are all riht. I know of ! no good reason why Charleston's trade should suffer." ! Mr. S. Y. Tuppf-r, for many years j President of the Charleston Chamber of ' Commerce, thinks the eity's trade great- . lv damaged. He places the damage to j property at fS,G0G,0J0. lie said that it 1 would be natural for those who have j heretofore traded with Charleston to apprehend financial troubles among the j business men, and therefore to desire to trade with other cities. "But," he continued. "Charleston recovered from the great fire of 1S3S, recovered from the disaster of 18G1, recovered from subse quent disasters of the war, recovered from tbe cyclone of a yai ago, and I believe she will recover from the great calamity which has just befallen her." Capt. F. W. Waggoner, of F. W. Waggoner & Co., wholesale erocers, also think? the city's trade is injured. He believes that the injury, however, is slight, and that it will not be apprecia ble in a few weeks. He was asked what he thought would be done to rebuild the city. "I think," he replied, "that the general government should ?end the people of the city several millions of dollars at a low rate of interest. The time for repajment should be fixed at thirty or fifty years. There is no other way in wnicn me city can be rebuilt. At least half of the people are very poor and unable to do anything to helo them- selves. A meeting of business men will te held in a few days to prepare a memo rial to be presented to the general gov ernment." Mr. J. Von Oven, of the firm of Hen ry Bischoff & Co., does not think that the city's trade will suffer at all. He agrees with Capt. Waggoner as to what the government should do. "There are some rich men In Charleston," he said, "but many that have been heavy losers are poor. They cannot rebuild their ru ined bouses. It is a sad fact that a large number of the old and aristocratic citi zens are among the latter class. The Hamiltons, the Heywoods, the Mont gomerys, and hundreds of others were ruined by the war. They had their homes, but not much else. These people will be unable to rebuild. The condition of the laboring classes is pitiable. They will not be able to do anything towards rebuilding unless they have assistance." There is scarcely a business man of any prouoineuce in the city but tbat has ! recfc,ved inquiries from other cities con- J cerning the condition of affairs here, ' anJ offring assistance. A New York insurauce company instructed Mr. Trip per to draw on it at sight for S500. Others from all parts of the country have offered from iloo to several thousand dollars to assist the r.eedy. With tbe city in thisLruken condition, its peopla helpless, the coming ..f the equinoctial gale is awaited in sickening terror. The buu will cross the equator three weeks frjic to-ljy. aJ Cliailss'on has usually had her equiuocua! blow two weeks ahead of the equinox. Last year ! it came on August 25lh, and did a mil- lion dollars' worth of damage within the , city in a short time. A gale of approx imate severity within the next month month would multiply horrors. Charles tons equinoctial gales Lave always been severe, and have never missed. The , latest ever known was Oct. 4. In feeble preparation for this, the city council to day made the two aldermen of each j ward with thiee citizens a committee to coudemn buildings imminently unsafe. Mr. Berkeley, chairman of this commit- tee, said : e Dtgan tun worn a. iu o'clock, and have condemned large numbers of buildings, but we can get no workmen. My owu store is unsafe and must come down, but lean get no oue to touch it. The largest and strongest houses have suffered most. The w eaker homes yielded to the shock. The walls of tLe Charleston Hotel, a most massive building, are disintegrated. We can condemn, but we cannot tear down." It is very much to be feared tbat the equinoctial, whenever it does come, will find Charleston entirely unprepared and that in the crushing in of steeples, roofs aud houses alieady disabled, we shall read the saddest chapter of this already terrible disaster. Unhappy Charleston. Though there may be reason to hoie that iu the first excitement oi an awiui calamity the loss of life and immediate damage to property at Charleston have beeu exaggerated ard overesiimaieu, n is, unhappily, h -rdly possible to escape the fear tbat the prosperity of the city has suffered au injury from which its recovery will be slow. Before the earthquake of last Tues day Charleston seemed to be entering upon a period ot growin wituoui paral lel in its previous bistoiy. It had en dured many gnevous trials and discour aging setbacks the terrible fires oi 177S, 171H;, 1S38, and 1S01, the destruction caused by civil war, and tbe cyclone of A ua. 25, 1SS5 but it was pressing for ward with extraordinar energy tore cover its losses and to place iiselt in a position of far greater importance as a Southern seaport than it had ever been before. Northern capitalists hrd taken hold of the Soulh Carolina Railway, which starts from the city, and had brought it into a coudit ion comparable wnn that of the more pertectly built and equipped railroads of the Union. They also ex- j tended and developed its business by i wharf improvements and steamship allr- j ances, and the Federal Government had undertaken the work of deepening the . entrance to tne harbor, so that the mer- , chants of the tow u were rejoicing over the speed coming of the time when ' vessels of the gnaiest draught would ! take their cargoes of cotton at Charles- ! ton whaives, and its commerce would be ! many times multiplied. The population, 1 which had increased by only about 1500 j between lStjO and 1SS0, in which latter j year :t was 4'.,74, had grown to 00.145 In 1885, making a gain in the five years of more than 20 per cent. ( Of course, the earthquake of the 31st i of August will have the effect to sec back this tide of prosperity for a time at least, and it is not unlikely thai many i years will h.tve passed belore Charleston again feels such an impejus as that : wh'.cli t has experienced since 180. ; Capital will be shy of the unhappy town ; so long as the remembrance ot the calam- ify remains ivid. Instead ot getting ready for future development, the inhab itants must now go to work to repair damages done, and meanwhile trade may i get into new channels, from which it ; can only be diverted by a slow process, j What effect, if any, th earthquake has j had ujonth' harbor we do not yet know, i j ilUj apprehensions aroused by a disaster I so unpreeenema along our .uamic coast must, at least temporarily, retard the growtn of Charleston as a seaport. We thereiore extend t. the citizens of that old und proud community our heart ! it at sympathies in their terrible misfor tune. Charleston is a town which will bo forever memorable :n the history of ' this republic, for it has always ben in- j habited by a brave and generous people, ' who, from the beginning, have loved ; liberty an i light, and have never failed j in exhibiting the courage of their con- j vict'ons. j My they get from the people of the ; whole Union not merely words of sym- 1 pathy, but also substantial evidences of regard and helpfulness. X. Y. Srtn, 1 3- j Railroads and their Management. j How miny of our readers have an ad- t equate idea of the magnitude of our rail ; road system ? If stretched out in a con- , tinuous line it, would reach five times around the elote, with a few miles to fpare for good measure.

Amer ican railroads seem once more to be en tering upon a prosperous era, when most of them will earn money for their own ers. It were well if purer, cleaner management characterized the new de parture, but this is not to be looked for. There is a class of men who live by rail road wrecking and mismanagement. These are always at work, and may be relied on to ply their business as vigor ously in the future as in the past, and with the same results. As we cannot do without the railroads, it seems equal ly impossible to escape the evils of their mismanagement. Lancaster Xew Era. Democratic Economy.
