The Herald thinks the only available timber for the presidential race can be found In the West It olaime that the grangers are suspicious of Wall street and will not support a man who la in sympathy with the gold barons. It says: "A gentleman who has had unusual opportunities of feeling the pulse of the South and West remarked to out Wash ington correspondent: The He rald * • • Is dead right In sarins that the BemoenU with a Western candi date will win next time, and with an East ern man they cannot "The West will be a very Important factor In the next Presidential campaign. That goes without saying. It may even proveto be a decisive factor. It Is, therefore, good politics, as it is also fair play, for the Democrats to recognise that fact and guvort. themselves accord ingly. “Tho supcrall'ioo that the Hast has any superior rights in the National Con vention is fast becoming obsolete. There Vras some reason, perhaps, for this arro- igance during the period of Western ado lescence. The communities on the sea ooaat were, until the last thirty years, years, dimly knitted, more solidly conservative, and more productive of executive capacity la public oflluo, Tho West had a great country to develop, was pulling itself together and gradually getting into organized shape. "But all that baa passed Into history It is a meroreminiscence, tho peculiarity of a generation that is gone. Today the great < intral portion of the country pro duces statesman thoroughly equipped by iducation and genius for the highest positions within the gift of the people. Than are none better in any part of this Republic. Since it has vindicated its right therefore to a prominent place in our national councils, there Is no reason why its enterprise, prosperity and pat- ilotlsm should not be cheerfully honored by allowlpg It to name the Democratic candidate tor 1803. "More than this, the Democrats oan’t afford to offend the people of the Wi by tbmatlng down their throats any candidate who will make suocess uncer tain. The business of the party Is to choose an available leader, who will not be handicapped by entangling alliances from the start. Nothing could be more unfortunate than to place in the Held roan, whethorltls Hr. Bill or Hr. Cleve land or Hr. Flower or any one else, who is known to have dose relations with a local organization like Tammany Hall. Unless this Is avoided we shall have not only an embittered canvass but an Inev itable defeat. "Tammany has its sphere of useful ness aud It ought to be satisfied with its present political possessions. It has supreme control of this municipality, with all the perqulsltea the term sug gests. It has reached out for capture of Albany. Reoently-its representatives ■went to Washington and wire pulling at the capital was begun In real earnest At least one candidate for the Speaker- ship of the House has relied on Tam many to secure his position. “Against Tammany In the city and State we have little to say. But the Democratic party can do nothing worse dor itself than nominate a Tammany candidate for standard bearer next year It would wreck every prospect of win ning the battle which oan oertalnly be won if the situation is properly handled —as surely as the crops bsve failed In Russia. An anti-Tammany cry during the next dectlon would be as deadly as the decree of fate, for there is a pro found conviction among voters st a dis tance from New York that Tammany and patronage are convertible terms. That Impression, or, if you like it bet ter, that prejudice, would influence sufficient number to throw f be advantage into the lap of the Republicans. "It is poor policy to carry a needless load in a raoe. When a party volun tartly pinions Itself it is folly to predict aviotory. And when a parly has the right of way conceded to it it deserves defeat unless It ossa every means which honorable and shrewd politics can de. THE SOUTH'S EXPORT BUSINESS. The Hanufaeturers' Record of Balti more, of November 38, in reviewing the Industrial progress of (he South, says: "The development of the South’s for eign trade, upon which the Hanufaotur- era' Record has so frequently commented, and which was emphasized last week in the announcement of the inauguration of four steamship lines from Newport News to Europe, receives another Illus tration this week in the establishment of five steamer lines from Norfolk to Lon don, Liverpool, Glasgow, Havre and Antwerp. The magnitude which this business has already attained is shown in the fact that the government report of the value of foreign exports from the United States for October puts the total from all Southern ports at 844,100,000, against $38,800,000 from the rest of the country, the shipments from the South being over 43 per cent, of the total for Uie month. The tendency of Western trade to seek foreign outlets through Southern ports Is being daily impressed upon the country, and while Newport News and Norfolk, with their regular steamer lines, are making heavy ship ments of grain, flour and provisions, lumber, etc., the more southerly Atlan tic ports are also advancing rapidly, and New Orleans and Galveston are hand ling a big grain and general business, the shipments of wheat from the former city for the four months ended October :tl having been 0,390,000 bushels against 301,000 bushels for the corresponding time last year. This growth of the South's foreign trade Is destined to have a wide-reaching influence upon the pros perity and progress nt this section. Added to the steady industrial advance ment whloh is going on, it means that the manufacturing Interests are to be supplemented by great commercial cities with their immense traffic. “We therefore Insist that the Demo crats can elect their candidate in 1893 provided they chooee a man who will take bis stand on national Issues pure and simple, and not be hampered by local embarrassments which will con stantly call for explanation and apology. 8uch a man may not be found in the East, but he can certainly be found in the West, and If the West gives him Its votes be will be elected.” womani A strange study, this. A deep »ea, into whose depths one can peer and— only peer. A fathomless mystery, we know this: To man she is a blessing or a curse. There Is nothing uegalive about woman, lie she an angel minlstrant or an opposite, woman's potentialities are active, constant and enduring. She lifts or she drags down. Site is light, sun shine, cheer, comfort, inspiration, or sbe is gloom, despair, hopelessness and cowardice. Her hand is the hand of succor or the haod of smiting power. Uer voice Is sweeter than that of siren's or it is harsher than the rifted lute. At,her shrine men warship, or turn away oft in pity, eft In anger At the last, woman is queen. 8 he rules where money, ambition, place and power fall to win the coveted goal. Her word Is the final law; from her sentence at the last there is no appeal; or If appenl be made there la no reversal. About woman strong men weave gar lands of love and on her head place oor- onetsof devotion. For her sake the knight poises bis lance and savage meets death with a smile on Ms lips. In every clime woman is queen, and no light of sun or sparkle of star is so radiant as the light and sparkle of woman's eyes. On woman God's teaderest benedic tions rest; to her come Heaven's sweet est gifts. hhe la our mother, sister, wife!—Trib- une-of-Rome. Uisafa Mousy to Carry. Hy father eras once with bis ship at Rangoon. One day daring a heavy' thunderstorm be eras driving in a cab to his a gents, when he saw a “coolie' (porter) drop down in the street. He gbs ontof the cab at once and went to the man, bnt lie was dead. There waa a horned patch in his waistdoth, oq the right side, and name blackened copper pice" lay on the ground. The man bad jnst received them for carrying a load, and, as the clothes of the poorer natives of India and Burmah have no pockets, he hsd twisted them into his waistcloth, and this money must have attracted the lightning. Bnt the most curious port of it was that the queen's head on one of the coins was clearly impressed on bis side, and even tile words “Queen Vic toria" were clearly defined.—London Tit- Bits.
