What does tho Jooaa voie ia Ohio mean, is the question that hsabeen asked many timea since tho lection oa tho 7ih- Mr. Joaoa, who raa on tho independent tiaket for governor of Ohio, polled a rote aggregating more than oao haadred thousand, an uBprecedented vote for aa independ eat ticket. And j set how to plaee tho hidden zeeaaiag of thu vote in its relation to the national policy ot tho admiaistration has caused the proas of tho old parties to grind out much ia comment and explanation. Had thla rote been given to M cL an. say the Democrats, MtKioley's own state would have gone against him; while tho B publicans claim thai Nashva victory ia au endorsement of Mr Kieley's war policy. Bat tho fact remains that this rote weat neither to the Democrats nor to the Republicans, and it must seem clear, therefore that it haa a aianif ieanoe apart from that wbieh both Democrats and Republicans try to plaoa upon it It ia reasonable to aoppooe that tha mea who voted for Mr. Joaea did ao because of their be lief in tho principles ho represented. Mr. Jones made his race apoa what is praetieally tha People's Party plat form, aad tho rote which ho polled la a state like Ohio, ia a moat at courariag indication of tho growth of reform principles. This is tho true aigaiftcanao to bo attached to tho Joaes rote ia Ohio. Oao of tho Democratic Congresa maa from this State was asked a few days ago what ho thought of the action of the Georgia Legislature in defeatiBg tho proposed Constitutional Amoadmoat which waa a oopy of tho North Caroliaa AaioBdmeat. He re plied that Georgia did aot need it. and whoa asked why Georgia did aot need it replied that ia Georgia the Democrats controlled tho Negro rote. Thla ia simply another evi dence of what wo hare long known. That no one love the acro better thaa the Deaocritiariziaa whea The Charlotte Observer in a re seat editorial, noting the many sub til lances that have been recently organised in the state, expresses treat alarm at the same aad says that "the Alliance is doubtless be ing worked up to help Senator Butler - fight the Constitutional Amend menO etc. The editorm of (ha Charlotte Observer is of course familiar with the declaration of principles ot the Farmer's Alliance. He knows that the great rardinel principle of the organization i?: Equal Bights to All and Special Pnvileges to None." lie hnows si o that the crime and politics thai aaa been more strongly denounced oy the Alliance ihan any other is (he crime of politicians making pio mises to the people in-campaign and then breaking them as soon a thy are elected. Kuowing this, the editor of the Chailotte Observer is no doubt alarmtd lest the honesi Alliance men who believe in thes principles and are governed by them, in their votes, will vote solidly against Simmons and hi Machine We will admit that we think th- ditor of the Charlotte Observer has some cause for alarm. fni m xne giving ot tree panes to politicians has recently increased co a large extent. The explanation of this is to be found in the action of the last Legislature, in abolitbinp (ha Kailroad Commission Aot of 1891 The Democratic organs proclaimed loudly to the people of the state tha they were not abolishing the rail- froad ommission act of 1801. bat (simplr reanacting the same law with increased powers. But they forgot to reenact the clause prohibiting the giving ol free passes; and Judge bimontoa rays they forgot to re- enact the clause given the Commis sioners power to assess railroad pro perty, or also left it out intentional iy. , MR. filLL ON THt AMENDMENT.

If they thought they had the votes, nothina of this hind would be resorted to. 3 his election cannot ba carritd by violence, the aame game cannot bo played twice. Our people were too confident bt fore, thtnkiog we were going to carry the election anyway. Ine constitutional amendment and election law was the bugal blast which has aroused all the laboring classes in the state.
