WILMINGTON, N. C.

THE WEST VS. THE EAST.
JThe New York Herald, which
wings a free lance in politics, but
leans, if it leans at all, towards the
Democracy, insists that the true
policy of the Democratic party will
be to'nominate its candidate for the
Presidency from the West next time,
where a successful battle can be
waged upon national issues.
The Herald is inspired in this by
its dislike of the Tammany organi
zation, connection with which, it
says, will be fatal to any candidate,
and that therefore, neitner David B.
Hill, Grover Cleveland, nor Roswell
P. Flower could be elected, on ac
count of the prejudice . throughout
the country against Tammany
which is regarded simply as an or
ganization for spoils.
There is doubtless some truth in
this, but not enough to justify the
conclusion that no man identified
with Tammany can be elected.
There may be some feeling against
Tammany because Tammany has
been a very much abused and mis
represented organization, but there
is not enough of that feeling to in
fluence enough votes to materially
affect the chances of the Democratic
nominee whoever he may be. The
mass of Western Democrats don't
care a continental about Tammany
nor a red cent whether Tammany is
on top or at the bottom in the local
scrimmages it has with rival organ
izations. With these local squabbles
or the causes that bring them about
Democrats outside of New York
have nothing to do and don't waste
much time thinking about. They
know this, that Tammany is a Dem
ocratic organization, that it contains
wittiin its ranks some of the best
and the truest Democrats in the
land, that, as an organization it is
pretty well able to take care of it
self, and that's allthey care to know
about it, ' - ' "
There is only one way that the
presence of Tammany in the Conven
tion could seriously affect the result
of the next Presidential election, and
that would be by carrying its local
squabbles into the Convention, en
deavoring as the assumed custodian
of the party, snow under Democrats
from New York who do not recog
- nize that organization, and thus
giving fresh vigor to contentions
and dissensions which might en
danger the State. If there are to be
rival Democratic factions from New
York who go to the Convention to
make that an arena of mutual abuse
and hair pulling, then it might be
good politics to take the candidate
from the West, where a man- and. a
strong one identified with neither of
the New York factions could be
found.
But we do not think there is any
danger of local squabbles being car
ried into the convention, and expect
. to see the New York delegates null
: r together harmoniously, stand by the
nominee whoever he may be, and do
all they can to . elect him when the
time comes to work, and vote, and
whoop up the voter to vote . for him
as industriously as they would - for
the man of their preference. ,
."Tammany may have some peculiar
methods of doing business," but as
far as far as. corruption goes it is a
paragon of purity compared with
some of the organizations in the Re
publican party; 'presided over by
some as brazen and" unscrupulous
men as ever -manipulated a
ballot, box or engineered - blocks,
of five. The people know ', this
and that makes Democrats very tol
erant of Tammany, and - rather
wish that we had a branch Tammany
in every State. " . ;
We would, however," like to see
the day when the Democratic party
can go outside of New York for its
candidates, when that will cease to
be a pivotal State whose vote is bid
tor by taking the Presidential candi
date from it and which is always in
Presidential years an uncertain one.
Of the seven candidates nomi
nated by the Democrats since 1864,
every one of them has been a New
York man, or was regarded as
a New York man. McClellan,
Seymour, Greeley, Tilden, Hancock
and Cleveland (twice,) while the Re
publicans, on the contrary, have
taken their candidate from the West
every time, except one, when they
nominated Blaine in 1884.
. But the time has not quite come
for that. It will be a New York man
next year, for the public mind seems
to be pretty well made up on that,
but after that the party may swing
out of the Empire State for its candi
dates, for it will either cease to be a
pivotal State or one that cannot be
depended upon.
MINOR HEUTION.
T. T. Fortune is editor of the Age,
an organ of the colored people, or
A fro-Americans, as the editor pre
fers to call them. It is Republican
in politics, but somewhat disposed
to be a kicker. In commenting on
the recent election in New York edi
tor Fortune pitches into Piatt for
ignoring the Afro-American Repub
licans, sails into Mr. Harrison's" ad
ministration for following his "con
temptuous treatment" of them, and
intimates that the Afro-American
Republicans, showed their apprecia
tion of this by: letting Piatt's man
Fassett severely- alne at the last
election or by "voting against him.
He further informs Mr. Harrison that
it was the colored vote of New
York which elected him President
and that they will not do it again.
Editor Fortune was a candidate for
Fred Douglass' place as Minister to
Hayti, which accounts for thevmilk
in the cocoanut, as far as his indig
nation against Boss Piatt and Presi
dent Harrison's administration is
concerned. There were some Demo
cratic clubs organized in New York,
and the members of these presumably
voted the Democratic ticket, but the
majority of the colored voters in all
likelihood did just as they have been
doing for years, that is, voted the
Republican ticket without asking any
questions, just as they did in Ohio,
where they showed their apprecia
tion of the "contemptuous treat
ment" complained of by Editor For
tune (for New York is not an excep
tion in the treatment of colored Re
publicans) by electing high tariff
McKiniey Governor and a Republi
can Legislature.; "'
-
The Austin Statesman says that
progress is abroad in Texas, not only
in the towns but on the farm. It
notes the establishment in many
towns throughout the State- of fac
tories, flour and grist mills, gins (hot
gin mills), sash and blind factories,
ice factories, broom factories and
many others, which will benefit not
only the proprietors, but the commu
nities in which they are established
and the State It notes also the
lively-interest shown in the iron belt
of the State in the establishment of
iron works, that a number of towns
are supplying themselves with elec
tric lights, others sinking artesian
wells to secure good supplies of pure
water, others establishing "electric
street car lines, while there is
scarcely a town that is not enlarging
its church and school facilities. On
the farm it notes the improvement
in the methods of agriculture, the
farmers abandoning the all co.ton
system and resorting to diversified
farming. There is improvement in
work stock, Clydesdale and Norman
horses taking the place of -the com
mon stock, Jersey cows' taking the
place of the ' long horns, Berkshire
and Poland hogs driving out the
Razorbacks, "Plymouth " Rocks and
Cochin Chinas taking precedence in
the barn yard, etc., all of which gives
evidence that progress is the word
in the Lone Star State. ..
In speaking of the South's indus
trial progress for the past4 week, the
Bal timbre l.f Manufacturer s Record

The most mbtable feature in this
report is the statement that a New
England syndicate has secured con
trol of the million dollar canal at
Columbia, and will proceed to put
up a $500,000 cotton mill,- to be fol
lowed by others, a pretty good indi
cation that New England cotton
manufacturers are still keeping their
eyes on the South as the place for
the cotton manufacturing industry.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Intending Speakers of the
House are kept busy at their respec
tive headquarters in denying reports
that they are going to withdraw. It
would seem that Mr. Bynum's unex
pected action has prepared the pub
lic to believe anything in the line
of Speakership self-sacrifice. Wash.

The Republican National
Committee warns the Utah people
of the "dishonor,, of future Demo
cratic control." A Pennsylvanian
from Philadelphia must have writ
that. The strict, honor of the Re
publican politicians is so well known
that when they say everybody else
is dishonorable the information is
exceedingly valuable to voters.

of Utica. He is in hard luck. He

LIGHTNING-PROOF SHIPS.
Wooden Vessels Alons the Victims of
Jove's Thunderbolts.
It is a curious fact that the iron
ships of the present , time are not
damaged nearly so frequently as are
wooden ships. The German Gov
ernment has been collecting some
statistics relating to the effect of
lightning on ships and the reason
given by the Commission appointed
to collect the figures for the im
munity of iron ships from damage, is
that wire rope is used for rigging
purposes and that the vessels are
constructed ' of either .iron or steel.
In this way it is rbelieved that the
whole ship becomes a continuous
conductor, leading the ligh'ning to
the sea before it can do much dam
age. The Commission reports that
no case has been recorded of a ship
rigged with wire rigging sustaining
damage from lightning except in a
few instances where a continuous
connection had not been made with
the hull. .
Wooden, ships, on the contrary,
still show the same per centage of
casualties as formerly, when they are
not fitted up with lightning rods.
" Petrified, Corpses.
It is said that: there is something
in the soil o'f the Catholic cemetery
on Iron Iron .Hill, Pittsburg, that
petrifies corpses buried there. Last
week, several bodies .were exhumed
for removal. They had not been
buried very long, two of them but
five years,, yet it is said that they
had turned completely into stone,
and were as natnal in appearance as
though just buried. The soil is
composed of limestone and clay, and
the bodies when exhumed were found
surrounded by water, which is .sup
posed to have exerted the petrifying
influence. - C"-;--. ' . : -.' : ' : -:- -

TELEGRAPHY WITHOUT WIRES
The Wonderful zaectrieal Possibilities of
r '-5 the Puture-Disciiised.'W- ';, :
Last night ! atv the C third annual
dinner of .the Institution of ; Elec
trical Engineers, Prof. Wm Crookes,
in proposing the toast of ' the even
ing, . "Electricity .in Relation ; to
Science,"-. said that they had happily
outgrown the preposterous notion
that research in : any department of
science was mere waste of time. The
facts 'of - electrolysis were by no
means either completely-detected or
ca-ordinated. - They pointed to the
grieat probability that electricity was
atomic; that an electrical atom, was
as definite a quantity as. a chemical
atom. ' ; '" ' : -'
It had been computed that in a
single cubic foot of the ether which
filled 7 space there; were locked - up
10,000 tons of energy which had
hitherto escap'ed notice. To unlock
this boundless'store and subdue it to
the service of man was a task which
awaited the electrician of the future
The latest researches gave : well
founded hopes that this vast store
house of power was not hopelessly
inaccessible. - -,
" Up to the present time they had
been? acquainted with" only a very
narrow range of ethereal vibrations,
but the researches of Lodge in Eng
land and Hartz in Germany gave an
almost infinite range of ethereal vi
brations or electrical rays from wave
lengths of thousands of miles down
to a few feet. . Here was unfolded a
new and astonishing universe one
which it was hard to conceive should
be powerless to transmit and impart
intelligence. Prof. Nikola Tesla had
lighted a room by producing in it
such a condition that an : illumina
ting appliance might be placed any
where : and lighted without being
electrically connected with anything.
He suspended two sheets of metal,
and eech connected with one of the
terminals of the coil. .
If an exhausted tube was carried
anywhere between these sheets and
placed anywhere, it remained al
ways luminous. The extent to which
this method of illumination might be
practically available experiment
alone could, decide. From Tesla's
researches it appeared "that a true
flame could now be produced with
out chemical aid. The slower vibra
tions to which he (the 'speaker) had
referred," revealed the bewildering
possibility of telegraphy without
wires, posts, cables, or any of our
present costly - appliances. It was
vain to attempt to picture the mar
vels of the future. Progress, as
Dean Swift observed, might be too
fast for endurance. Sufficient for
this generation were the wonders
thereof.
MR. STANFORD ON HORSES.
He Puts No Iiimit to the Degree of Inv
" provements.
The San Francisco Evening Post
prints an interview- with, .Senator
Stanford on the subject of the re
cent, performance of his trotting
horses on the Stockton "kite" track.
Stanford said "Racing- is over as
far as Palo Alto horses are con
cerned, for all trotters have been
retired for the year. Sunol prob
ably will be sent East in a tew
days. I am confident Palo Alto, thor
oughly conditioned and free from
lameness, can make a better record
than he did when he trotted in 2.08$.
His season in the stud did not end
until the middle of July and as a
consequence he was not thoroughly
prepared. Sunol was also lame, and
was laid up two months in the mid
dle of the season. I don't think she
was in as good condition as she
might have been, and I am firmly of
the opinion that atJher best she can
trot a mile in 2.05 or better. Arion
eclipsed the expectation of all. "I
had great hopes of him, but did
not look for him to be the
hero of so wonderful a perform
ance as 2 10f as a two-year-old.
1He is a well-balanced horse and
strong everywhere, although I do
think, barring accidents, that he will
nearer approach that mark than any
horse yet foaled. -
'I do not pretend to put a limit to
the degree of improvement in horses,
because we may constantly : look for
best strains and qualities of each
parent to develop in progeny so that
the progeny will continueto be bet
ter than either parent.. The greatest
improvement is to come through the
breeding of the brood mares. I am
trying to increase the number at
Palo Alto by judicious "mingling of
