2. Wo Room for a Third Parly.
If there ever was a time when the
third party had a favorable opportu
nity to make a good showing, it was
in the recent hiaie elections.
The fact that they had rolled up
more than u million votes last year
created the impression that they were
gaining stM.Dgtb. It vrou’d not have
been etcango in au oft year to find
many of the dissatisfied elements in
the two o'd parties rushing into the
ranks of the new party. But nothing
of the kiud occurred. The elections
are over, and the situation has been
closely analyzed, and it now' appears
that the populists made a disastrous
failure every where. The Bo3ton Her
ald thus sums up tne outlook;
lnere ia no evidence ot populism at
aril m Ohio or Iowa. , In Kansas und
<n Nebraska they are getting buck
into the republican ranks, or- prepar
ing to join the democrats. Even in
Colorado, *«. 1* doubtful it tne silver
issue is sufficient to keep them out 01
he oid pat uca. In the south the pop
ulist movement has never been much
more ifcau a bag Dear. The vote oi
Virginia U>» year bhowa that it is not
oven equivalent to u revival of Ala-
uoueism in that state; ail hopes ol its
uccese are likely to die ot>.t in tiutuh
^aroiina; aud it win hi tve no mure
nan a still-birth in Alabama^
Politically speaking, the democrats
are likeiy n* make more of it than the
republicans. The democratic power
n*a at no time been shaken in the
southern mates, nor wid it be unul
republicans as a national party
are recognized on Another basis to
ward that section. Whenever there
<s hop e ol this, some Jorce bill move
JiOii't comes up to b ast it. In the
•ves 4 . the democrats can hardly fail to
^ai.u by it. They at way a gain as t.
c suit of these new puriy .movements
he demucralic party is the best cum
acted organization in politics the
•unitry has ever seeu. It is, there
fore, the least susceptible to the ef
ctt. ot new political movem-.mia. In
uiditiou, it, can hardly have tailed io,
*e remarked that when new partiet
>reak up—as seexns to be iuevitabiy
neir iaie—dem«>crat8 who have taken
»art in them almost aft go back to
oeir old association, while a good!
uany republicans fail to take this
ourse toward their previous party.
• ne democrats have been making
ieady gains in this way /of fall twen-
y } ears. They have never had «
miter opportunity to do this than
.iey have in the case ot the populist
arty.
That party is with them on the
ariff questi on. Let them turn the
itentiun of this country to tariff re-
r " »rm, and the tendeucy ot those
-otera w’jo have left their previous
»arty allegiance cannot fail to be
strongly their side.
8ubetan» rally the same views have
ready Veen expressed in tfceae col
■imns. The de'eat of tbe populiits iD
Virgin ia aud Nebraska was especially
■'’gnif.cant. If they cou'd accomplish
»otb ing ia these two states, they have
•o grounds for anticipating a victory
to ywhere. It is the same old story
f nird parties are always starting in
r -his country. They make a good dea*
of noise during a campaign or two
and then disband without accomplish
iug anything.
The truth is there is no need for a
third party, and no room for it. The
opposing theories ot government are
represented by the r< publicans and
he democrats and they must fight to
1 finish. The dis a'vfied voters in
(he democratic party are rapidly
coming to the conclusion that it will
aot improve matters to j >iu the third
party and thus assure the triumph ol
;ne republicans, aud the more
hougbtful populists nre inclined to
admit that their best chance of ob
taining financial re ief and tariff re**
form is to get on the Chicago platform
with the democratic masses and de
mand the redemption of its pledges.
The third party has had its brief
day of drets parade, and the voters
who drilled with it wi 1 now fall back
into the ranks of the two old parties,
and go to work to achieve practical
results—Constitution.

Harry Mason, tho chief promoter of
the enterprise, got back from New
York city to-day and brought in hit
inside pocket the articles of agreement
signed by the managers of the princi
pals. He says that * the alleged ar
ticles of agreement heretofore pub
lished were unauthorized. Those in
his possession call for a scientific glove
contest, and specify, that the gloves
shall be those allowed by law.
The. promoters of the fight have
petitions in circulation, and claimed
to-day 1,500 signatures of business
men and their employes, wbo want
the fight. Mr. Mason/added that he
thought Corbett would be here about
the first week iu December. He will
appear in a show on h»s way down.
Tallahassee, Fia, Nov. a 1.—Attor
ney General Lamar, in so interview
lo.dayonthe subject ot the Florida
statutes, as applicable to prize fight
mg said: ‘'Prize fighting is unlawful
to this state. Prize fighters may b<
punished under Florida’s revised stst<
utes or the common law. When prize
fighting was not a distinctive offense
at common law, yet the combatant*
could be indicted and puoished for
assaulr, affray or not. Spectators who
attend, aid, abet, cbeer on and
courage a prize fight can be indicted
and punished. There is 00 weakness
to our statute. It may be that pais
ties engaging m a prize-fight may also
be punished under our statutes again v

instead of residing in the county jai
six months, may secure local habita

It is uot the p<»ticy ot this country

Let the li&w&uana settle their own

administration, but it ca i be done

The people of tms country
tearing their hair about Ha'vai, for
Jbfey have full confidence io President
Cleveland’s ability to handle the mat-
ter justly aai sa isfac’.orily. The only
excitement is in the minds ot the re
publican and sor.head democratic
newspapers,.who are hird pressed for
a pretext to at'ack the admiot,.ration,
says the Atlanta Journal.
The entire pre^s of the state favors
a reformatory institution for young
criminals. The Macon 'Telegraph
-says: ~ .
; .. ' 4 «rhe movement 1 wking to a re-
* formatory institution 'for youthful
criminal is an unqnalifiedly good one.
It is nht in the interest of publ’c
morals that-boys and girls suffering
punishment for their first oflente
against the law should bs herded with
hardened criminals aud be released to
bocome perm-uen: parasites on socie
ty. By a'. I in •‘ana let tUeJegU'ature
! *|i'ike up this Hibject and provide for
such an iostituv-oo.”
The demand for a Mate reformatory
rings cut from one end of the *tatp to
t ie other. Here are some figures
from the News which emphasizes the
nee.l of j-uth an instituiion:
“The who ! e number of c invic.
present is 2 168, and ot these 375, or
12 p?r cent,, are below the age of 18.
Ttcrty six per cent, ol the whole num
ber are below 20. Tn«re are 8d who
arc below the age of 15, 40 below the
a^e 0I14, 27 below the age ot 13, 15
below the age of 12, 2 below the age
of 11 and one who is only 10 years
old.”
Tne legislature will clearly fail in
its duty if it does not provide for tl e
separation of these youths from the
oil hardened criminals in the peni-
tentiny.
Foot ball is the popular fad and
craze ot the day. It is a dangerous
sport. Serious, bodily injuries,' and
in many cases death, results from the
game as it is played.
There were 22 death, from foot ball
in Great Briti&n last year, a record
fully sustaining the oft .repeated state 1
ment that this is indeed the most
perilous of sports to human life and
limb. The moral of the figures is
that if the game is to retain its popu*
larity it’s brutal - features should he
eliminated from its practice—which
can very well be done without in the
least detracting from the p’easure it
affords.

The Currency Question
Secretary of the Treasury, John G.
GarlUle, made a ^notable address on
Tuesday night before the Chamber of
Ootntneree in New York. It has at*
raeted very wide and general alten-
from the fact that the silver and
thee financial questions are promi-
i)y before the country. No man
better qualified to speak on these
hj'ttts than the distinguished Ken 1 "
lucktan. He Is a statesman in tbe
highest aud broadest sense of the
term. Mr. Carlisle has made tbe
finances of the country a special study
tor years. And with his great intel
lect and trained mind he has mastered
the Biiuv.iou. His utterances will be
accepted as the result of careful study
by a great statesman of tbe intricate
and delicate relations of the two
metals to each other, and ot other
isiuea involved in settling these grave
and important questions by. proper

Atlanta, Nov. 22.—The Hou3« wae
engaged tor two honrr in an rfiort to
reconsider the bill to abolish Teachtri
Institutes, which was tost yesterday.
A motion to reconsider prevailed.
King, of Folton, introduced a bill
to prevent the sale of railroad tickets
