THE PARTY AND TIIB NEW TARIFF. b In wlint position docs tho passage of flip tariff l>lll lcavo tho Democratic par ty'/ The bill falls In somu Important respects to carry nut the pledges of tho parly. It has been denounced In tbo strongest terms by tbo oOlelal head of tbo party. When lb goes before tlio country to defend tills bill tho party must carry tho weight of au acknowledg'd failure to fully in'tform It. promises amt of the president’s ficrco denunciation of Its sltiiriicter. Will tho burden bo easily rirrlodl Wluit answer will wo make to the people whim they remind 'is that tlu* prosldeut lias described tlio lull In words as condemnatory us any bo could employ lu describing tbo worst Itcpub- llcmt legislatli)n? Wu believe II Is true that tliere has been n partial failure to keep tlio par ty’. promise., and wo liollevo tbo pres ident was Justified In tho use of the language employed by him iu cluirno- terlzliig tlic bill, ^.’overtheloss, in our opinion, there is n defense good enough to sure tbo party from blitmo lu tlio minds of reasons hi. uien. TUat do- fee.se must rest, first, on nn mider- atnudlng of tbb elrcumiftnnees under which failure occurred au<), second, on the real merits of the bill Itself, com pared, not with nu ideal Democratic measure but with the legislation actu ally on tlie statute book and to which It was the alternative. The failure to pass n 1 sitter bill—a bill In which tho favors or the govern- incut would bo withdrawn' from all blood-sucking trusts—was' duo entirely to tbc altitude of tlirec men. Tbo par ty ns represented In both liouso and senate overwhelmingly favored a genu ine Democratic measure, nuil tried per sistently nml courageously to "enact such a measure. It failed only because threemen who called themselves Dim- aerate, but who ou.tbls ipiestlnii are not Democrats, held tlio balance of power, ami, were lints enabled to' put before tho party -tlio nltermiHve id par tial or complete failure. To a certain extent tlio party Is responsible for the nclloii of thee. men. Hut It Is uot re sponsible for acts which It bad no reason to expect from than or for acts which they deceived It. Senator (lor- man, (lie ablest limn, tbo lending spirit of tho three, there Is every reason to believe, failed to conform in bis nets U> the wishes anal expectations of tbo people ho represents. Tlio Dentocnillo newspaper* ,.r Maryland are unanimous and slroug lu their coniI"iuiiiitl< his course, mid many public meeting^ of Democrats have been buhl at which resolutions strongly condemnatory hls'coarso have been' ndoptisl. Tbo Democrats of New Jersey linvo dealt with Senator Smith lu tho same way, It uot w.th the same degree of vigor. If Senator Hrlco Ins escaped tritlclsm lu Ohio, It Is bccauso Ohio Democrats fall to sis) In him n representative uf their views sad Interests. They see In him. ns he Is in fact, n New Yorker with the view, aud interests of tt Wall street railroad exploiter. Tlio Demo cratic party is therefore not respouslble for these men, If they be OQQaldered In the light of representative*. It is only respouslble foe tlie mistake of having put them In the senate—of .having trusted them when they were unworthy of trust. Novy us to the character of the bill. It l* deformed by a sugar schedule which will enable tlie worst of the tariff trusts to bleed tlie people of tlio United tStt'c* to the extent of ten or ttfteen million dollars a year—a schedule i'll dealubly arrauged lu accordance with the deummls of the trust au.l euaeted Into law only with It. ootesut. Hut while this deformity exists, tlio new luw, la other scltedulee .■quntly import- cut to the people, largely rednoc. tax- atiou. The taxation ttpoo all forms of carthepware Is tviluvvd from au aver age of 51 per c*M, to 55 per cent.; upon metal, ami metal maim fact ores from 58 to 50 per cent.; upon wood aud wood manufactures from 31 to IB per cent.; oo cotton manufactures from .*>5 to IS prr cent., and. most striking of all. on woolen. Crew US to IS per coat. The* cover hundred, of articles entering lute common consumption. The average re duction for the whole list 1. from the P« cent of tho McKinley bill to 8S per cent lu addition. It makes respectable pwgn ss toward the free raw i.mtcri.l. which are at the basis of the Herat ertakr tariff policy. Woo). lumlwr aud hemp are made absolutely rfee, an ,i the tax oo <V«l. frou ore. ptg iroa mu other materials but slightly advanced from their original state, greatly re duced. Tlie Democratic policy in tins respect is not fully carried out, but we believe n partial application of It will by Its results compel further progress In the same direction. The Democratic party will not and ought not to defend the mistakes And crimes In tlie bill, .jit should admit that they exist, should explain why they exist and promise that at tlie Itrst op portunity they w.ll lie corrected mid avenged. The party lias made an earn est aud honest aud courageous effort to fulfil! its promises to the people. It lias not succueded fully, but It- has ac complished great good. It is not re sponsible for tlie treason that limited It* capacity for dolug good, and lias in the most emfiliatfc manner possible re pudiated tbc traitors. In view of tbls effort nnd of the good it bps accom plished, we believe the party can go to the iicople and ask a vote of confidence, with'the hope that It will be glveu. The people nro not unreasonable. ’Ibey will not hold tbc party responsible for net. of three men, nnd they will re member that It is through tlie Demo cratic party only tint* reduced taxation, accompanied by honest and orderly government, can be hoped for. NOT SO, SOLID. COXETITES MUST GO. The so-called ‘‘conservative*’’—the Democrat, proper—over in South Caro lina linvo not made u flgbt for tbc con trol of tho party this year, and have put forward no candidate*.' For this reason, possibly, a breach 1ms occurred In tlie ranks of tlio Tlllmaoltes and con siderable heat has developed la the con test for tho offices by tbo aspiring lead ers of that faction. As much of an ugly temper Is being shown nnd as much bad language Indulged In as when, two years ago, all ‘‘reformers" were banded together to 'Overthrow the old Democratic leaders and capture the party for Populist Ideas. Iu tho quarrel over tbc spoils, n dis position has been shown by some of tho candidates to court tho favor of tho conservative Democrats whom they were a short time ago reviling, and it Is possible tiiHt tbls disposition on their pnrt Indicates a grndunl breaking down of the fierce. Intolerant class prejndico on which tho Tillman party was built up. It Is to bo hoped that It does. The state cannot bo prosperous nor Its peo ple bappy so long ns this prejudice Is tlio cause of party success nnd there fore the basis of government. Iu the primaries the representatives of tlio extreme element In the Tillman party 1ms won. The next governor will therefore ho an Imitator more or less apt of Tollman's methods nnd man ners, without that strong nuiu's capac ity for Inspiring devotion In Ills follow ers. Uo cannot ltold together solidly a parly which is-liardly more In spirit and purpose than the pereonnl following of Tillman, nor can Tillman himself, when most ot Ills Unto Is spout lu WWhingtoa. Tho lvffult Is likely to be that before very long the Tillman parly will break up—the radical clement of it bceonilug hi name as well ns In fact n pnrt of tho Populist party aud tho more conserva tive element eotulug back Into the Dem ocratic ranks. It will bo n fortunato thing for South Carolina when this happen!!. IT IS IhVP POLIOY. It is posslblo that Gcu. James It. Weaver will bo n member of tho next emigres!. Uc has been nominated by the Populists nnd the Democrats of his district. Gen. Wenvct is n man of considerable ability, but bis pro. enoo or absence from congress will mnke little difference. Ilo has ltatl a seat In that body several times before, aud bis Impress on laws now In opera tion Is not apparent It Is tho putty fusion that makes his election possible that Is tlie fact of Importance. Wo te- gurd tliu fusion ns a great political mis take for the Democrats in this luataaee as It nearly ulwnys Is. What can they poiralbly gain by electing lien. Weaver? Ilo does not hold tlie views on great liolltleal questions that their own party docs, and lie is Just as much-au enemy of that party ns be Is of the Republican party. If elected, he will certainly do everything In bis power to Injure It. l\*--itily tho Democrats of Gen. Weaver's district cannot hope to ohvt a cnmlidaie of tlielr own, hut that Is not n reason why they should voto for on enemy. Jn voting they ought to press tlielr opinions, aud not merely deuvoc to giiM cue euctny a triumph over another, Tim fate of the Demo cratic-party in Kansas, Colorado aud other Western slates where It lias fused with the .Populist* to beat the ltepub- lle.tns ought to have' taught tlio Dem ocrats lit town that fusion Is folly that It results In tlio disintegration and disappearance of the Democratic tarty.

The bill drew a large attendance, at peer*, mainly members of the opposition. Tho government benches began filling up aa the-bill progressed; the peeresses’ gallery was filled, nnd many membera ot -parliament, who-.were present mani- fesJ.ed intense attention. The Duke of Devonshire (Liberal) opened the debate by professing pity for the .tenants; but, he added, Hhe case of the landlords was stronger. After other speeches for and against the bill, Lord Salisbury, formerly pre mier, aroae to speak in opposition to the measure. The house, a»c this time, was crowded with spectators, nhe diplo matic body being put in full force, and Lord Salisbury was enthusiastically cheered. He opened his remarks by commepting upoii the weakness of the arguments made in defense of the bill, and aids task was thus made easy. He td’jxi that while unjustifiably accusing the kute government of being devoid of compassion for the tenant^ who had been evicted from their homes in Ire land, Baron ner^nul, tlie lord high chancellor, had shirked discussion of tlie mainsprings of the bill—The powers of the aroltdatoM, who were forcibly imposed lipon the luudlords. He in- hUinoed the case of Arbitrator Fottrell, who, he said, was an ex-sollcitor of the land league and ft'l’rototfted sympa thizer with the doctrines of Michael Djvl'it. The point of This argument waii, that it was* impossible for nrbi- itrators to be impartial fli :wns, he »ald, the worst kind of despotism to invest such men with tlio unbridled powers proposed by the bill. Then, he s posed, rural public opinion would employed, such a« shooting his legs full of shot, to Induce tv planter to quit his farm. -It was useless to plead that tlio bill was exceptional. It was impossi ble ito make exceptions where human passions ’were concerned and prizes werb offered to the greed of large bo dies of men. The passage of the bill would still leave :i sore to be dealt with. Was the government going, to introduce nn annual bill to remedy this difficulty? The house of lords, he said, was not a iandlonds' hou«a They were threatened with uboll!Ion; but be had noticed, that in Fnuice. when the sec ond chamber was abolished the lower chamber fallowed immedlaUely. , Lord Salisbury concluded by expressing the liopo tlmt the house would do their duty—reject this dangerous measure* Lord Rosebery, the premier, replied to Lord Salisbury. He was cliaered Im partially from both sides of the house. He reproached Lord Salisbury for in dulging in gibes and Jokes, and said tin*! hN lt‘vH;y had undo ii incumbent upon him to take n 'more responsible view- of tlio Mildout. Tho evict Ion of these tenants, the permler said, had ill read v <i*-d th> tix-payers 20.000 •pounds; butt to hear Lord Balsbury’s remirks. nobody would tw»ppo»e the BubJect was of a vilul character. He ventured to tell their lordships that If they followed what was In the*i»* minds nt that moment they would not reject •the bill. The rlghlL of veto was ft most dubious function. To exercise It upon n measure supported bv the mu*n of. the elected ropreaentatlves nnd by n r**x •TM'Dfii* rc*«i><>n>ihv fr>r p'loc nnd order In Ireland was playing with edged tools The speeches of both Lord Salisbury and Lord Rosebery were listened to with deep Interest.

A Specter Startles the Engineer of the Sea BpacU Road. New York, Aug. 14.—Mapleton, oil tlie Sea Beach road to Coney Island, has a ghost. The ghost was first no ticed by a train load of excursionists returning at midnight on Thursday af ter a day’s jonity at Coney Island. The train had Just reached the spot where Miss Baring committed suicide on Mon day morning when the spirit appeared. Superintendent Laske of the Sea Beach road, who was riding iu the cab ‘>r the engine, first noticed it. He called En gineer Mnllon’s attention to It, and the train was quickly brought to n stand still. In the language of Superintend ent Laske, “It was tall and shadowy like. It had thfe appearance of a sub stance gradually melting Into a filmy white nothing, and seemed to.be cov ered by n long white filmy veil. "Two seconds after I saw It,” paid Mr. Laske, “it began moving over to ward the railroad track. It moved filowly, waving its long draped arms. I could nee distinctly, ns we approached near, that it mbtloned to us, gesticu lating an one would do trying to stop a train. Engineer Mallon then saw It. He began to blow his whistle with a fiucces|slon of sharp tooto and put bn the brakes. The thing did not get out of the way, though it was careful to avoid the headlight, and the train was brought to a standstill. Just as the train stopped the thing glided off the track and skimmed a'ong toward tho woods, all the time gesticulating as if motioning some one to follow."
