TWELVE PAGES
ANAHCJIY AND DEMOCRACY.
A novel element lias been introduced
into ihe campaign by the claim of the
Anarchis orsan of New York that the
Democratic plitform sleals the A'larch
istic thunder in its demand for the repeal
of the 10 rcr cent tax on bank note circu
lation. The argument of the Anarchist
sheet is that "the central and foremost
of the demands of anarchism" is that of
"free money vs. money monopoly." Con
sequently the Democratic demand adopts
the Anarchist principle.
Tins is a class of alliance from which
Democracy can wisely pray to be deliv
ered. While it is very plain that the
Democratic proposition would, if carried
out, cieate monetary anarchy, it is difficult
to believe that there is any real satisfac
tion of the Anarchist idea of destroying
law in the liberty to issue wildcat bank
notes under authority of the State Legisla
ture. If this is the Anarchist ideal the
people had an ample experience of it from
1840 to 1860, and will not be at all disposed
to repeat it.
But it is to be noted that there is one
pfiint in which the Democracy and the
Anarchists appear to be really in unison.
That is the assertion that the national
bank system establishes, "money monop
oly." The exact contrary is the case.
Any man in the land is at liberty to put
out national bank representations of money
by complying with regulations established
bylaw to insure that the no'esshill al
ways be worth what they pretend to b
It is true that the high price of the
United States bonds makes those regula
tions restrictive at present But the
obvious cire for that difficulty is to en
large the list of securities available rs a
basis for circulation, and not to go back to
the days of worthless bank circulation.
With ihe monetary anarchy that would
nece-sarily follow the Democratic proposi
tion, and the Anarchist symotthy for th
idea of letting everyone issue his own
b.tnk no'es w'thout any security what
ever, the Democratic attitude on the cur
rency question is sufficiently character
ized. THE PROTECTION OF THE LAW.
Tnc cip'ure or Jack Rimsey. the as
sociate of Frank Cooley, closely following
the Lining of the latter while resisting the
slier ff's posse permits the hope that the
gang of thieves winch has so long infested
the mountain district has been finally
broken up. It was a descredit to Fayette
county that they were permitted to defy
the law 50 long ?s they d'd; but the-r sup
pression is better late than never. "
This progress hav,ng been made in the
vindication of the law, the lesson of the
Cooley outlawry shouH not be lost. The
enforcement of the law should not be per
mitted at any time to fail through laxity
or negligence. Whenever a crim againt
persons or property is committed the
whole power of the law should be exerted
to bring the criminals to justice. The
only way to prevent the growth of such
outlawry as that of the Cooleys is to sup
press them at the very outset of their
career.
The necessity of continuing vigorous
efforts to make life and property safe in
Fayette county is enforced by one fact.
There is strontr reason to suspect tliat
other lawless persons have been commit
ing crimes in that region under the knowl
edge that their offenses would be charged
to the Cooley gang. If the law is to rule
in Fayette every such offender mnst be
hunted down and broucht to justice.
MR. ROBINSON'S DENIAL.
Since The Dispatch commented quite
sharply on Congressman Robinson's re
ported utterances concerning the ballot
Jaw, it Is no more than justice to give
publicity to his denial of the accuracy of
the report He insists that he did not say
that he was opposed to the law, for he is
not; but that he is not in favor of some of
its details. Everyone will agree to that
general view, inasmuch as many of the
details added by that famous Senatorial
revision of the Baker bill have been from
the first recognized as defects which go
far toward vitiating the enactment No
doubt exists as to the necessity for amend
ment, although it is possible that a wide
difference might develop between Mr.
Robinson and the supporters of ballot re
form as to what the amendments should
be. There has been ground for suspicion
of a politicians' movement to make the
operation of the act cumbrous and unpop
ular; but we are glad to give Mr. Robinson
the credit of his disavowal of any such
purpose.
CANADA'S CANALS.
Another Canadian canal project has
gained attention in the form of a plan to
connect Lake Erie and Lake St Clair.
The New York Sun correctly says that
for military purposes a canal connecting
Georgian Bay with Lake Ontario would
be very effective, as it would escape the
command which the United States now
has of the Detroit River route, and which
it could easily extend to the St Clair.
This is undoubtedly accurate; but it is
worth while to remember that the com
mercial results of the Canadian canals are
more immediate and more important than
their military aspects. War between this
liation and England or Canada Is a remote
piTspect, and would ba at most but a
transient phase. The commercial rivalry
is constant and will continue. While
Canada may not have kept pace with
us in industrial development, it
)3 undisputable that in the open
ing of water connections from the
Iake3 to the sea it has got far in
advance of us. That superiority would
be increased by the construction either of
the Lake Erie and Lt!.e St. Clair Canal or
by the Ontario aud.Georgian Bay scheme.
On our side wo can restore the balance,
if the nation, with its vast resources, ad
dresses itself in earnest to the construc
tion of internal water ways. But,to real
ize; the project which will connect the
rivers with the lakes, and the lakes with
the ocean, the national policy must bo
formed on national lines and not on the
system of sectional grabs which now
dominates appropriations for internal
w.tcr ways.
DEMOCRATIC SELF-EXPOSUKE.
The Democrats In New York continue
to pursue the prosecution of their own
statistican Peck for the crime of report
ing a condition of industrial prosperity.
The difficulties in their way might daunt
less determined minds, but they continue
to struggle with tli3 task. The Demo
cratic Superintendent of Banking has
given corroborative evidence of Peck's
rcpori by showing that savings bank de
posits in New YorK have increased S13,
000,000, anrl that the sum invested Jn
bulking and loan associations has en
larged $4,000,000. That recreant Demo'
crat hr.s not yet been hauled before the
criminal courts, but wesuppose the Dsmo
cratic managers are waiting till they get
through with Peck before they tackle
another snbj?ct.
The fact that this is an indictment of a
Democrat! cfiicial, and that it declares it
a J ublic effense to report statistics that do
nol suit the Democrats, have already been
noted. But there are other peculiar
phases. In the first place we have the
spectrcle of Democratic campaign man
agers assuming the role of public prose
cutors. A new terror is added to ma
chine politics in the assumption of the
campaign committees of the rjght to haul
anyone who produces the wrong sort of
arguments before the bar of justice. But
even that aspect is dwarfed by the char
acterization which the Democrats give to
themselves.
The Democratic party has been stigma
tized as the Calamity party. At first the
foundation for such a name was rather
slight, but the Democrats seem determined
to justify it In every step of their at
tack on Peck they proclaim that the Dem
ocratic cause depends on the misfortune
of industry. To find workingmen whoso
wages are increased is treason to the Dem
ocratic cause; to discover industries whose
output is enlarged becomes a criminal
offense. There has rarely been in the his
tory of the country such a demonstration
by a political party that it identifies its'
cause with Industrial prostration, low
wages and calamity generally.
Democracy has done many foolish things
in its day, not'the least among which are
its return to Calhounism and wildcat
bank notes, in the present year. But the
exposure which it insists on making of
itself in the Peck prosecution is something
phenomenal, even for Bourbon stupidity.
LAWLESSNESS SnOULD STOP.
The fact that assaults continue to be
made on the men who have taken positions
in the Carnegie mills demands some
notice. One which may yet turn out to
be of murderous character was reported
yesterday, the victim being a worker in
the Lawrenceville works.
TnE Dispatch has deprecated the use
of the legal machinery for prosecutions
which savor of intimidation of the strikers.
It is equally p'ain that the resort to force
against non-union men is criminal law
lessness and requires the sternest measures
of suppression. Such acts bring the
cause of organiz-d labor into disrepute.
So lone as they continue they attack the
protection which the law must guarantee
to every man however humble.
It is the first duty of the leaders of the
union men to disavow and suppress such
criminal acts. So long as they permit
their cause to be identified with defiance
of the law they can have little claim on
public sympathy.
AN OLD ABUSE.
The example recently brought to public
n otice of the device to avoid the extor.
tionate transcontinental railroad rates by
shipping goods from New York to Liver
pool and thence to San Francisco Is
thought by the Boston Herald to be a
"striking illustra'ion of the unequal
charges for transportation." It is un
donstedly a striking illustration; but It is
by no means a new one. Long before the
passage of the inter-State commerce law
similar illustrations of the grotesqueness
of railway discriminations were brought
out.
Large quantities of goods from Pitts
burg destined to the West and Southwest
were started on their road by taking
exactly the opposite direction to New
York or Pniladelphia and then coming
back through Pittsburg to their destina
tion. It was testified before the Hepburn
investigation in New York that a Western
New York manufacturer m shipping to a
point so nsar as Cincinnati found is neces
sary to send his goods to New York and
then back again over the same route to
Cincinnati. It is worth while to remem
ber that such abnormal exemplifications
of incongruous rates are the constant
features of the unregulated control by
railroad managers of freight charges. The
last case is only a proof that the era of
railroad combination maintains the old
abuses in scarcely modified form.
If competition reculated the charges of
railroads they would be compelled to take
freight from one point to another by the
most direct routes and at the lowest
clnrges. The way to rectify all such
eccentricities of the rate-sheets is to
restore the full force of competition.
Now that law has been vindicated to
some extent by the -death ot Frank Cooley
and the arrest of bis chief comrade in crime,
Fayette county citizens may sleep in peace
free from exaggerated, but not unfounded,
fears that they will be called up during the
night to deliver up their savings to armed
thieves and tortnring bullies.
Free bridges and pure water do not come
by talking alone, but talking is the first
step to be taken toward tho realization of
such blessings.
A national bank dollar bill is worth a
dollar; State bank bills without national
backing would be worth a dollar less a
fluctuating discbunt and generally an un
pleasantly stitf discount at that. Yet the
Democratic platform demands that the
country be exposed to the disastrous
dangers of a wildcat currency.
Mercy is admirable in that "The quality
of mercy is not strained." The Allegheny
river water supply is obnoxious for the
same reason. '
It is a curious suggestion that the labor
problem of America should be solved by
throwing the country open to European
competition. Yet the suggestion is seriously
made to the American public in the distinct
and incisivo language of the Chicago plat
form. Rainbow-chasers still have time to
reform andremdmber that the absence of
THE PITTSBURG
expectation Is the best preventive of disap
pointment. (

DISPATCH,' TUESDAY,
I CAMPAIGN NEWS AND COMMENT.
Two State elections will occur this week,
and after them thcro will be no more such
tests of political strength until the great
contest in November. Both tho current
elections are in tho Sor:th, Florida voting
to-day and Georgia on Wednesday. This is
the first appearance of Florida in tho Use of
October States, the change having been
made b7 the last Legislature. While early
Stato elections were being abandoned in
other sections of the country Florida
adopted the plan because of fear
of tho force bill, figuring that if
the State and national elections wero
separated the hated federal supervisors
could not interfere In tho former, at least.
Tl.e contest this year is not of more than
nsual importance, and a Democratic victory
is conceded. In Georgia, tho canvass has
been or a very lively character, as shown by
Weaver being driven from the State. The
Republicans havo no ticket in the field, and
the strugglo is between the People's party
and the Democracy. Governor Northern,
who is running for re-election, was an Alli
ance Democrat, but his views were not radi
cal enough for the Third party advocates,
who have been making a mpst aggres
sive flaht for their ticket. The Populites
expect to make a demonstration which will
show their strength in the South, while the
Democrat clnim that by rolling up a ma
jority of SO.UO0 or more they will practically
crush out the now party in tho Soutli. For
its effect on neighboring states the returns
from Georgia .will bo awaited with consid
ciablo interest by Southorn politicians and
at National headquarters.
Bon Casieron was one of the callers at
the National Repunlican headquarters the
other day. Pennsylvania's senior Sonator
may now be placed in the list of tho pla
cated. Hating heard unpleasant rumors from
Alabama tho New York Times, Cleveland's
personal organ, sent a staff correspondent
there to investigate. Ills report is not es
pecially calculated to cheer tho Democracy.
Among other things be says: "Tnis State Is
dangerously doubtful. That roan would be
rash Mho would to-day predict whether the
electoral vote will be cast for Cleveland,
Harrison, or Weaver. A stranger to the
State may easily be excused for inability,
after a necessarily supeiflcial investigation
of the situation, tobisean opinion of the
outcome upon the predictions of interested
partisans. A man with predilections for the
Democratic ticket must rely upon the assur
ance? of the leading Democrats that tho
Stato will bo for Cleveland in spite of the
gloomy ontlook, and that by hard work,
such as Democj nts never put lorth in this
State before in a national cimpaign, vlctbry
for clevoland and Stevenson will bo re
poited on November 9. Nothing could bo
nioro wretched than tho Democratic divi
sion here. It is deep, bitter, extensive, as
divisions upon prsonal grounds may some
times bo. The fizht in Alabama is not a
national contest atall. National issuos are
talked of, but incidentally only. Cleveland
and Steversnn and the Congresionnl candi
dates in the State will suffer in consequence
of this deplorable faction flirht, in which the
ruling impulse among tho Kolb people is one
of revenue. The hostility to Cleveland and
the National Democraoy Is .senseless, and
persistence in it may be fntnl, as It is politi
cally crimii.al But no one who has not
come in contact with these resentful Kolb
nion can nppieciato the intensity of their
detoimluation to be "square" with the
Jones Democracy, even though it be at the
expense of Cleveland's defeat,"
The speaking campaign in this State will
be fully opened very soon. General Hastings
will speak at She: andoab to-night, and soon
after at York. Governor JIcKinloy will
speak at Towandn about tho 10th, and Con
gressman D.ilzell is down for n speech at
Indiana on tho Htli. Other speakers will be
out in a short time.
At a Democratic ward meeting in Phila
delphia the other evening an election was
held under the new ballot law,' sample
tickets and the paraphernalia being at
hand. Of those present 110 availed them
selves of the opportunity to tost their abll
ity to prepare the ballots properly without
assistance. When tho ballot-, were opened
and oxamined it was found that 22 were de
fective and at a real election would have
been thrown out of the count. As this was
almost 1G per cent of the entiro vote, it will
be seen that a good don.1 of instruction will
be required if the number of void ballots is
to bo kept down to a mfnimum. A most
noticeable feature of tho voting above re
ferred to is the fact that a majority of the
22 defective ballots were cast by men of in
telligence, who it might be supposed were
the very ones who required no instruction.
The loss of votes involved in a throwing
outoi 16 per cent of the ballots can be better
realized when it is remembered that Harri
son's plurality of 80,000 four years ago was
only about Sporcentof tho total vote. Of
couise ic is to be expected that the loss will
bear proportionately upon both pa i tics,
and there is no danger of the new method
changing to any great extent the gen
eral result in Pennsylvania. In close
districts the ontcome on Congressional
and. local tickets may be affected,
however. This danger would have been al
most totally obviatod if the Baker law had
piovided.as everybody supposed it did, that
one cross mark would vote a complete
straight ticket.
"Whitelaw, Eeid's Tribune intimates
that the people of New Yoric havo such a
high regard tor Mr. Cleveland as a neighbor
that they will never call upon him to reside
elsewhere.
TnE most outspoken member of the ad
ministration on political topics is Sec
retary Fo3ter, of the Treasury. Af
ter returning to Washington f i om a con
ference with Chairman Caitor and
other Republican leaders he said: "I found
all the people at our headquarters very con
fldent, but tho Democrats seemed to be con
fident, too. I met Senator Gorman, and
asked him what he thought of tho situation,
and br said: 'It tbo election should take
place to-morrow we would win, but you peo
ple have a way of crawling out through
such small hole3 that there is no telling what
may happen by November.' Chairman Car
ter seemed to bo leellng pretty good over
the outlook, but was complaining of a want
of funds. I consoled him by-telling htm tho
campaign barrel was usually the emptiest
thing on earth." The Secietary sees some
very gorgeous rainbows In tho Southern
skies, and be expects electoral votes (or
Harrison and Reid in States that are usually
considered unalterably In the Democratic
column. According to his prophecies the
solid South is a thing ot tho past. He said
Virginia Has a Republican State, and
though the Republicans might not carry it,
tbeiewaeno ussunmce that Mr. Cleveland
would. He has great taith in tho third
parly movement throughout tho entiro
South as un ally of the Republicans, no
saysall through the Sinth third party men
are to be appointed deputy marshals and
supervisors ot-electlons and are to have
completecbargeot the election machinery
so far as it is lit the hands of the federal
authorities.
Bichard Croker says: "I have looked
over affairs pretty closely, and can honestly
say that at this stage I never knew the
chances tor Democratic success any
brighter."
General Weaver completed his South
ern stumping tour in a most sanguine
frame ot mind, notwithstanding tfte
excessively torrid manner in which
his party w.is received at some
places. In speaking or the rongh treatment
he received in Georgia, General Weaver
said that no discourtesy was shown blm by
ex-Confederates, "many of whom," said ho,
"will vote for me In November." The mob
which potted the General with anciont hen
fruit was, he said, composed of young toughs,
who were not only too ydung to have taken
any partintnolato war, hut the major por
tion of whom are too young to vote at the
coming election. Ho thinks that his "re
ception" in that State will react against the
Democrats, and make votes for the People's
party ticket. "Besides" chimed in Mis.
Lease, "we were not treated as badly as re
ported; the newspapers manufactured most
of the 'scenes' which havo been given to the
public." Genoral Weaver said that he ex-
Eected to carry Alabama, -North Carolina,
ansas, Florida, Nevada, Colorado, Mon
tana, Nebraska and Virginia. West Vir
ginia and Tennessee,, he thinks, will go Re
publican. He declined to discuss at length
the charges which the Democratic newspa
pers are publisliingaguinst him; but when
specifically questioned about tho Pulaski
charges, ho said they wero "utterly untrue."
The campaign will soon reach the stage
when betting argCBents will claim equal
prominence with tat and force bill ora
tory.

Importers of pestilence are planning an ac

Tho Danish Expedition Also Obtaining Val

Gloucester,' Mass , Oct. 3. The sohnouera
Ada S. Babdon and Laurel arrived to-day
from Iceland, each bringing 140,009 pounds
of halibut. Tho Danish bark Hogla, that had
been exploring on the coast of Green
land, had arrived at Dyro.'jord. Her
commander reports that the Hogla was
15 months on the coast of Greenland, most of
the time being imprisonod In the lee; that
one of the crew died and was burled in tho
Arctic ocean, and that explorations of con
siderable importance were made. The party
found the remains ot Eskimo habitations,
with dishes made of stono and other urticles,
the use of whioh was unknown, all of which
were forwarded to the Danish Government.
The commander of the Hogla explored
the island of Janmayer, in latitude 71 north
longitude 7 west, very deep water being
found in that locality. - The party dredged
in 475 fathoms of water, bringing up
sediment which contained such an
imal vegetation as sea anemone,
together with particles similar to iron oie.
Alter refitting at Iceland, the Hogla sailed
Angust 23 for Greenland to complete the
scientific re-eai ches that she had been com
missioned to do, intending to romain all

How a Good Banknote Can Bo Circulated
"Without a Number.
WAsniHOTOir, Oct. 3. Special.' A week or
two ago some of the bankers of Chicago tried
to make a sensation out of the discovery of
an unnumbered bill of the denomination of
$3, bearing the vignette of General McPher
son. As the number of a bill is of impor
tance in its identification, and as this was no
doubt a genuine bill, tho query at once arose
as to how it could have Bllpped through the
machinery of tho Treasury without receiv
ing its number. Thematter was placed in
the bands of Harry Smith, assistant register
of the Treasury, and that gentleman has
Jnst made a report, which is in substance
that it is impossible this bill, or any bill,
should go through tho department without
being projierly nnmbered.
It is supposed that some ono experimented
on tho number &f the bill in question with
chemicals, and succeeded in lemnving all
traces of tho flguros. It frequently happens'
that bills come back to the Treasury that
have been thus tampered with. Mr. Smith
takes occasion in His report to go over the
threadbare story of tho progress ot a
national banknote from its inception to its
final impression and inspection, to show
tho impossibility of the Issue of a note with
out a number.

Chicago, Oct. 3. Pope Leo is sending a

signor Satelli,Presidont of what is known In
the Vatican as tho Academy for Noble Ec
clesiastics, a celebrated training school for
ecclesiastical diplomats. Monslgnor Sa-'
telli's object ostensibly will bo to obtain re
liable statistics of tho Catuolic population
in the United States and to inform himself
as to the growth and influence f the
Church hero. It is said by those who Know
whereof they speak, however, that tho
apostolic delegate, who is to leave Borne
forthwith, has been invcsiud with other
powers than those requisite for tho fulfill
ment of these simple duties.
In this connection it is pointed ont that
the meeting of tho American Archbishops,
w n tcli was fixed some time ago to tako
Slaco in Sen York early this month, has
een postponed until November. The
school question is the main issuo to be dis

the divergence of views is regarded as so
marked as to render desirable the presence
of au authorized agent from Rome.

A Prominent Clergyman Falls From Grace

Protestant Episcopal Church, and onco

year in tho lectorshlp ended September!,
and It u:is during bis vacation prior to that
tirr.o that the unministerlal eplsodo oc
curred. Early In July Mr. Ashteton wont to
Cape May as tho guest of a gentleman well
known in financial circles in this city, who
has a cott.igo there. On tho first Sunday or
the month he occupied tho local pulpit
at the Cape, to tho satisfaction of
a large congregation. Next day was tho
Fourth, and upon that occasion, it seems,
the clergyman was so teckIos In his
libations that the whole household became
awaro of his condition, and the relations of
host and guest became somewhat strained.
The report of their rector's over-indulgence
soon reached the ears of St. Andrew's
congregation, nnd ever since that time gos
sip has been unrestrained. He had tondored
his resignation, which was accepted, before
starting on his vacation, and did not return
