Wednesday, Nov. 1/, 1891 AfU*r all the bragging alxnit the third party, it turns out that it has no straight worth speakii g of in it.- own home, Kansas. It is to !»e hoped that the Southern Democrats who have been persanaded into supporting this new party nill learn wisdom from the knowledge of its utter lack of inllueuce, and not join a party that ha* no real existence except in the imagination of a lot of profes sional politicians. The Republican triumph in Ohio demonstrates very forcibly the im mense power of the protected manu facturers, and .the absolute impor tance of putting a stop to this legalized robbery, just as soon as is possible. It is very probable that the Republicans spent more money than they have ever done in a State campaign before. The Democrats have carried Iowa, one of their formei strongholds, and with success in New York and Massachusetts, there is every reason for the Democrats to feel hopeful, and nothing but some serious blunder can defeat them in the National election. GROVER CLEVELAND. Tuesday’s elections have cleared away what seemed to be a tangled ticket of uudirbrush in the Prcsi- dentail field on the Democratic side. Had Pennsylvania and Ohio voted Democratic, it would have created two Presidential possibilities in (iov. Campbell and Gov. Pattisun, and it the Farmers' Alliance had maintain ed its powers in the West, it would have made the nomination of Cleve land impossible. As it is. the West will have no formidable candidate to hold the Western States from Repub licanism, and the Farmers’ Alliance has practically perished as a politi cal factor. On the other hand, the doubtful battle in Newv.Yv/k was turned to c positive and sweeping Democratic victory, chiefly.by the heroic effort. t)LGrover Cleveland, lie made but one speech opUide of his State, and that was in Massachusetts, where, for the first time in the history ol tint Commonwealth, the Democrat, haw- elected a Governor to two con secutive tyms. So far as the Demo crats have won on Tuesday, they have won on a conservative finuneiu policy, and there is now apparenl'y but one hopeful candidate lot 'the Democratic nomination next vein'—Grover Clevelam].—Philadel phia Times. HADE HAMPTON. In their inordinate and insane desire to cou-t popular favor, some of the sub-treasury pripers have s< far forgotten every fehtiment of gratitude as to spxsfk hi disparagii!; terms of South Cufolinu’s most dis tinguished sou.—Wade ‘ Hampton. We very much mistake the h-mpei of the people if any numbe r of then endorse the sentiment's of v these office seeking editors; or who 'would not repudiate with indignation any words, save thosd of respect and affection, used in connection with his name. • • The very men who are speaking in this way of him, would, a few years ago, have considered it u distinguish ed honor to have shaken his hafid; and simply because, in the exerciseo! his judgement, he differed from them on some" public' «|neStions, must needs speak of him in the same terms they might--use in yj.caking oi a professional Jailitician. They should never have aught else tlmi the scorn and ci»liteiiip't of every true son of iNmfli Carolina, and this alone should forever debar them from seeur ug any office of honor or profit in the IState, Have they for gotten the dark days of ’76. when Wade Hampton held the destines of the whole State in his haudft,—and when it was only by his con race, his unselfishness and his great Infffteucc that wc were saved from the political robbers that had brought us to.'the verge of ruin? Great ju-he was in war, he was great.*r still in peat e, and his proudest record is Uiat of Ihe political savior of his people. The knightly soul of. Wade Hamp ton soars far above the /mil and murky atmosphere iu which his detractors grovel;, and when the present generation shall have passed THE TARIFF QUESTION MUST BE THE MAIN ISSUE. The results of yesterday’s election prove some things very clearly. . It is evident that the united Dem ocracy can elect its national ticket next year if it will do two things: 1. Nominate men who command the confidence and respect of the country. 2. Make-the tariff the main issue. With a good ticket and a sound platform, the heart and center of which shall he a low tariff plank, we can not only carry New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Indiana, which have hitherto lieen sufficient to insure Democratic victory, but we can bold Massachusetts, Rhode Is land and Iowa, and make Illinois, Michigan and'Wisconsin very doubt ful. If Democrats take heed of yester day's lesson they will win a great victory next year; if they shut their eyes to it they will have to endure defeat as the penalty of unpardona ble stupidity. The above, from the Atlanta Jour nal, is good and there is no reason why the Democrats should not elect 'he next President, if they make the tight on I he Tariff issue. It is not probable that the Democrat platform will declare for the unlimited coinage if silver, and when it is shown that the party does not intend to tamper with the currency question, thisfact done will draw agrat many votes from the Republican party. So far us can be predicted at present, Grover Cleve land will be the next President. The Tariff is a matter of such paramount importance, that every other question before the jieople is insignificant .vhen compared with it. It is well to bear in mind that flit.- protected manufacturers, and the Senators and Congressmen elected by their money and influence will fight with despera tion, but they can be defeated by bard and persistent work, and when it is considered what it means, low Tariff for the country at large, and especially the South, no effort should be spared to bring the issue to a suc cessful conclusion. With a low Tariff, such questions as the tmlimit- •d coinage-ypf silver, and the Sub- Treasury Rill would sink into a sea if oblivion from which there coult' be no resurrection, and the country would enter on an era of prosperity ijiat it has never known before. 1-et ■very man study this question for himself, and it will take very little reflection to show him that it pre sents something tangible, and which is taking a great deal of bis money •imply that the manufacturers may be enriched. church, and refuse to recognize di vorces, even when granted by the civil law.

L Folk, president of the National Farmers’ Alliance, at the Naffonal Hotel. “Nothing favorable to the Alliance ever ettnies through that channel. The elections, however, are in no sense indicative of the strength of the People’s party, We are not par ticular about capturing State offices. Our purpose is to win legis’ative scats. “The Republicans arc making great claims of gains in Kansas, but there they combined with their ancient enemies, the Democrats, in ojqMisition to the People’s party and the campaign was the most bitter I over witnessed.” “Do you tl ink it probable'that Cleveland will be the Demceratie candidate for the Presidency?” “1 have been of that opinion all the while. 1 am certain he is the favorite of Wall street, the choice of the moneyed class, and every effort will h 1 made to have him nominated. In fact no man could lit' put at tht head of I be ticket, either in the Democratic or Republican “parly, if unacceptable to flic plutocratic power.

It is very probable that at the next session of the Ilegislature, u hill looking to the granting ol divorces, will be introduced, and it would la 1 well if the papers of the State would express their views ol the subject, und also secure an ex pression of opinion from some ot rlieir most intelligent readers in re gard to the mutter. Il is probably generally known that South v'uro dim is the only State that refuses te grunt divorces for any cause, and rhe question is whether it is better ,o change the. law, in this respect, ot ma’utain our present attitude in re gard to a marriage being indissolu- ile. The Rennettsville Rainier sug gests that some provision ought, to be made in case of the wife’s deser tion of her husband, without any must: to prevent her from claiming lower. We are disposed to think he suggestion a very excellent one; out while favoring this, we are mi- iltcrably opposed to granting a di vorce for any cause whatever, and while the law, as it now stands, will tear hard in individual eases, yet Hu general welfare must be considered.

The whole trouble with Col. Polk is that he wants to support himself for the Presidential nomination, ami this being the ease, he wall, of course, not support Cleveland. ' only difference between Col. Polk and the other sub-treasury leaders is simply that he aims a little higher, The Rev. Mr. Wadsworth, of Au gusta, does not season his pulpit utterances with soft words. For several Sundays he has been de nouncing in unmeasured terms the pet sins of our sister city mid has caused a decided sensation by his extravagant statements. We fear that in bis righteous zeal to reform society he is doing great injury to a good cause by the intemperance of iis speech. On Sunday'.Mr. Wads-j worth was severe in his denuncia tion of newspapers. but the newsp i-; perscan stand such unworthy assaults i :0 long as Mr. Wadsworth may care I to make them. He was also partien- i larly savage in his criticism of the board of police commissioners of Augusta. In a sermon on October LStli he charged certain members of th- police force with obtaining free 1 drinks from the saloon's and -.(alking their be;its in a state of intoxication, md offered to furnish proof to con- i vict. The commissioners iqvited Mr. Wadsworth to appear before tIn board to investigate the charges, but | U.. Wadsworth had evidently not ’ jxpeeied the commissioners to- meet him half way tmd cra.Vrff.shod.
