Thk New York Herald, taking its cur from an artirle first published in the iitoriil columns of the Inter Ocean, ha been trying hard to get "Brer D ma iether.' It seems to be up-Hill work, rMmd not pleasing to "The Prophet" or to "The Claimant." Ex. Sxxator Evakts will be succeeded in New York by a Tammany democrat; a Totton political ring, whose chief duty ie that of robbing tux payers, having se curely fastened its tenacles on to the "body of tbe democratic party, is stretch iag out to get its hands into the national " treasury. Thk Atlanta Constitution says: "Cal--vin Brice, United States Senator from Ohio, should either go home or resign."' Uitce reminds one of that historic calf, which "sucked two cows, and the more be sucked the bigger he grew." Brice, however, might take notice that it only hastined the death of the calf. Ex. Thk New York Herald is thoroughly 32uropean. It wnns cheap lbor and cheap products. In an editorial note it ays: 'The New Year eenis to have begun with higher pricts ail round. Tbe tii ore we see of the MeKinley bill the more we don't like it." Let us have things, "more English, you know."

A correspondent asks. "What arc Jerry Hiinpson'a qualifications for United States S'-nator?" As tar aa reported he depends maiuly upon his "sockless" ex tremities, encased in cow-hide boots which never experienced the taucli of toe biackinn urusn. Jerry, nawever, ia said to be smart at the upper end, but puts little dependence in anything but his feet for political preferment. Ex It is a well known fact that the pas suge of law intended to disfranchisu the white vote and to establish the polit ical supremacy of tbe negro will result in checking th-: investment of Northern capital in the South and deal a death blow to its manufactures, which are now in a niot encouraging state of develop ment. The Inter Ocean, however, pooh poahs such an idea. New Orleans States. The States can sot point to a word or , clause of the election bill which 4dia- ' franchises the whi'e vote" r "establishes political supremacy f the negro." It simply is a bill demanding Hud enforcing the legal rights of all yoters. To charge that justice so administered would he a death blow to manufactures" and tbe prosperity of the South is the idle vapor ing of a blind partisan. Inter Ocean. AMERICA TO THE FRONT. Ioter-Oceau. Mr. A. W. Caverly arrived in the city yesterday from a six months' trip around the worid. He left New York in July of last year and crossing to Sn Francisco there took one of SpreckePa "steamers to Sydney, Australia. From Sydney he went by rail to Ade aide. Ilia next stopping place was Co- ombo in Ceylon snd from there he went via Suez to Naples. From I'aly he pass ed into France and from there sailed for New York, and Chicago. After he had thus briefly sketched his itinerary he war aakid: "What do they say of the World' Fair where you have been. Mr. Cayerly?" "In Italy and France they are enthusi astic and we can safely rely on handsome exhibit's, both governmental and individ ual, from those countries." "How about Australia?" "Well, there isn't any enthusiasm there to speak of. A good man could do something down there, however, for they are mora than well disposed toward Amrica. Why, American goods are driving all other goods out of the mar kets." "What goes?" "All kinds. They use American wo ven goods oh, everything that civilizjd people ust and that we make. See here, this suit of clothes that I have. Ilia was made in bjduey. Cheap English clothiug, eh? . Not a bit of it. It it made of American cloth, manufactured at Woonsocket, Mans. The tailors there wi'l tell you that American clodi is better and cheaper for the money than Eo1i.h1i goods and is steadily driving the English goods out. There is an American line ot steamers running now from New York direct to Melbourne, making the trip riround the Cape of Good Hope in forty rive days. That rtmiuds me that all the time I weis away I ucversawan American Ha at a mast head except on the sfeamer thai took me to Sydney. Some of my lri-rid.s say that I am a demoera; how that may he I don't know. I never yoted but once, but this I do know, that I shall vote next time, and vote the R-piibiic-m ticket straight. Those people in Austra lia are Bullish, are cool, calculating, conserya'i ve but mterprUinr mei; th y edl them the Yankees of the southern hemisphere, and their appreciation of American manufactures shown bv their buying them is significant to a thinkinc man." SISTER ROSE GERTRUDE'S WORK. Sister Rosa Gertrude, the young woman al o it whose work among the lepers of M"lokai so much has been written, has been induced to reply to the charges mud against her for renouncing her ork. Her article, the first from her pen. is to bo published in tbe Ladies' Hom Jonrnal for February, and will contain a full explanation of what she ha accomplished arnang the lepera, and she was obliged to forsake ber work. TIN PLATES AND STEEL RAILS. Inter Ocean, It is uut a political organ, making weet music in praise mi Heed r McKin ley. but just a plain trade journal, that cares nothing for the fate of parties or of politicians, which informs us that the mil l-i now in proems of construction will bo able to produce 150,000 boxes of tin plate in every week oi tiie year, or 7,500,000 boxes in a year. This is the computation of the Manufacturers' Rec ord. The Cobden Club's Chicago Tii bune, ana the reuuinr organs oi me democracy, which but a few weeks ago were assuring tueir refers tnanin piaie could not bo made in America, will i...in uSn.Isn Thnn WX il W rattl also that the estimate of the Manufac turers' Record does not include the output of any works not in actual process of construction. Hut Chicago, Elwoad. Ind.. Omaha and several other towns and cities have schemes afoot which are likely, in the aggregate, to double the output estimated by the record w hen the tariff on steel rails was in- creased to a degree of adequate protec I tion the free traders raised a universal howl of protest. Steel rails, they said. could sever be produced cheaply in America as in England; the poor farmer they said, would be "taxed" permanently. in tbe form of higher freights, to enrich few "steel rail barons," the extension of railways they said, would be limited by "tha bigber prices on account of tha tariff" which railway dirclia would have to pay for steel rails. It is now mere matter of histary th.t whereas no steel rails were made ia the United States befara 1867, in which year 2,550 tons were produced, tha product of 1887 was 2,373,335 tons, which is a good showing of the strength which twenty years if protection imparts to aii industry. And as to prices, $158.50 per ton was the prce in 1867, and $29,25 was the price in 18S9. Free traders nevr should prophesy. And as to freight, "the poor farmer" paid nearly 2J cents per ton per mile on grain shipped on tl a New York Central in 1869, and less than 1 cent per mil ia 1889. Likereductioi are noticeable in all railway freight rates. Aad it will be wban. twe or three years hence, we are making all ur own tin plate, instead of spending $21,000, 000 a year in Europe for it. and when the retail price is far less than when the British monopolists controlled it some protectionist writer will quote tbe false predictions of tbe American free traders of 1890 concerning tin plate, just as we now quote the false predictions af the American free traders of 1868 and of the I five years succeeding thereto concerning: I steel rails. The following from an editorial iu the London Telegraph is a good sample of the abuse heaped upon the secretary of state for his able and unanswerable defence of American interest in the seal fisheries: "American statesmen are liable to excessive swagger when deaUng with British rights, because America has prac ticnlly no history apart from its connec tions or conflicts with England. Mi. Blaine's acuteness, industry, eloquence, and party craft are absolutely unrivaled, but he has not ever been suspected of having any fixed principles to guide him while in power. The chances are, there fore, that although he twists the lion's tail and flirts with free trade in order to catch tbe Irish and Southern vote, he will lose the presidency because the people will not confide their destitutes to a mere partisan, howeyer brilliant. There are Americans who are not Irish and witn t,,em common sense is kiog." tue English press need not worry over Mr. Blaine's chances for the presi dency. America's leading statesman has refused that honor once, and prob ably would again. The trouble with the London Telegraph is that Blaine in his matchless letters to Saulsbury Las completely uadone the English premier, so that nothing but bluff is left for the English to fall back upon; their argu ment has been riddled by the keen and telling thrusts of Mr. Blaine. THE BEHRINC SEA QUESTION. LoNroN,jAN.6. The St. James Gaz ette today says that it accepts the offical dential in regsrds to the Behring Sea troubles, adding however, "but why is the United S'ates navy be'ng massed in the Pacfic unless it is to make the Behring Sea a more claustim? Officers of the American navy do not act; upon rumors printed in American paper?." The Pall Mall G izeile sa y-: fr, L:uinc onviousiy means to try more "bounce" for the sake of making polit ical capital. We are convinced, however that the Americana will not support Mr. Blaine. It U imperative to arbitrate the matters in dispute. Tbe Glohe says that it attributes the fric tion to Mr. Blaine's "bragging spread eagleistn," and it is the opinion that "in view of a possible, though unlikely American display of force in Behring Sea Great Britain ought instantly to strength en her Pacific squadrons." The Globe also advocates tbe settle ment of all matters in dispute by means of arbitration. RIOT RUNS RAMI A NT. A Mob Takes Possesion of the Capitol and are Driven Out by the Militia.

Jan. 8 Special to the 1kraldJ Ilie legislature alter tne stormy conflicts of last night convened in joint session this morning with closed doors. A great crowd gathered in the Capital and when admittance was refused they broke open the doors and took pus session of the halls. The gevernor invoked the aid of the militia and after a scene of intense ex citement, the capitol was cleared. Pan demonium raigned supreme, and at timts violence waa feared. The capital is now in the oaaseuioQ r trie mupia ana trie police; the mili'ia guarding tbe ap proaches t th building and the police hava tbe possession of tbe inside. The matter has been submitted to the Supreme Court, which has just decided that the vota must be canvassed, which means that Boyd and tbe republican state oflicera must be seated. Tbe inde pendents are wild with excitement but are firm and determined and the final result can hardly be predicted; they met at 2;80 in joint convention and were joined at 3 o'clock by the republicans and iecaacrsta to camvasa tbe vote.
