The day has pasted when a Demo? cratic tag on any sort of a man means that the party will swallow him. Tin: only thing that saves the sick man of Turkey from being overdosed is the anxiety of each of the attending physicians to come in for more than his share of the estate. What the country needs is a little more of individual political independ? ence. It has more now than it had a few jesrs ago. A few years bonce we will have still more. It is a good thing, and has come to stay. arrangements for tha Christian En? deavor convention to be' held in Roa noke this week, are progressing. More homes are wanted for the delegates, however, and it is to be hoped tbat the announcements made by the pastors of the churches today will be cheerfully and promptly responded to by the Chris? tian people, so that pleasant entortaln ment will be provided for the delegates. Senatou Sherman has stirred up the Republican politician* of the country by the criticisms in bis book, but the great trouble with the Ohio statosmun was that he wanted to hold all his friends down to the Btr:ct letter of a contract in which ho wat the chief honefiziary while making no concessions to thorn. Such selil3hnes3 is certain to meet with disappointment, no; only in political aiTairs but in any of the con? cerns of life. Honest John was too con? ceited to suspect dangor until it had done its work. The latest namo suggested for the place on the supreme court bonch made vacant by Justice Jackson's death is Boke Smith, of Georgia. That gentle? man is doubtless an able supporter and strong friend of Mr. Clovoland, but somehow the name, Iioke Smith, does not have a bigb judicial twang, so to speak. After all there is nothing In a name but everything in the man. Rona parto or Caesar might just as weil havo been Bcmeone else, eo far as names are concerned, but the impress of . their characters would havo been ioft upon the world all tho same. There are two classes of Virginia T)3mocrat8 who are profoundly dissatis? fied with tho feature of tho Walton law that disfranchises the illiterate voter unless bo will blindly consent to allow a constablo to vote hitn a* that Consta? ble chooses, with no power anywhere to revise tho action of the constablo and say whether he has actod honestly or dishonestly. These are the illiterate white voters themselves who are sub? jected to this outrageous treatment, and that large body of Virginia's most up? right and intelligent sons, who under? stand the whole thing to be a trick by which Illiterate voters may be forcod to vote just tho opposite to what they wish to vote. DIsguiso it from thenruolvea as the Democratic loaders may, it is never? theless a fact, which thoy can easily learn to bo a fact, that a vory largo pro? portion of the Domoorats of this State aro profoundly dissatisfied with tho present condition of things. Theso leaders think that thoy have only to | crack tho party whip and these dlssatis- ' fled Democrats will como into traces and pull as thoy have of yoro. We warn them that thoy aro making a fatal mis? take in entertaining this opinion. Gor? man and bis fellow-bosses believed the same thing of Maryland Democrats, and now they are all overthrown.?Rich? mond Times. b. ci.ay evans on the sooth. II. Clay Evans, the man whom a good many people bolieve ought to be now occupying the gubernatorial chair of Tennessee, is still vory much alive, not? withstanding ho failed to secure tho governorship of the State above men? tioned. He was for some time a strong possibility in the mattor of the Vice Pro?dontal nominati n of the Republi? can party next year, but Bradley'e sue coss in Kentucky has overshadowoi him in that respoct, bo much that the oust he em hope for from th3 next Republi? can success, nationally, is a place in tho Cabinet o! the Presi lent elected by that party. Ho is still, howov?r, a prominent fac? tor in Southern Republican politics, as was shown by tho enthusiasm with which ho wss rocolved at tho recent banquet of the Home Markoc Club in Boston. His speech on that occasion was listened to with marked attention, and rolatod chlelly to tho South and its growing industries, with some satirical illusions to politics in this section. Among other things ho aald: "Conditions have changed in the South since the civil war. Coal mines and iron mines have been opened and operated with great proflt. Iron fur? naces, rolling mills, cotton factories and various other industries have been built, giving employment to tho unem? ployed. Tho faotorios have been com? ing to nature's tialds and mountains of raw material. In 1880 Tonnessoo stood as tho thiri.oon;h State in tho produc? tion of pig i *on. In 180D she stood as sovonth State in this respect, in 1SS3 Alabamo stood tenth in ran c, bus in 1800 sho had pass=d all bus Pennsylvania and Ohio, ranking thirJ. la the year 18GS tho whole South made only 00,000 tons of pig iron, but in 181)2 tbo South made undor protection 1,900,000 tons. [ "I have b3on urged to say some hinjf I on tho political situation in tho South ' and in doing so I shall bo brief. ''Politics in tae South is a science. ! By the application of Bclonca to poli? tics?:a tho uae of an 'intelligent bal? lot box,' by 'propony constructed and trained artists,' preceded by a skilful up-to-date registration, up-to-date bal? lots, tho rosults will tend to show that tho groat majority of tho voters aro re? lieved from tho burdans and dutioa and re5poaaibilitio3 that in many places at? tend citizenship. "I am quite convinced tLo r.ooplo aro finding out tho fact that tho South being politically solid is tho greatest barrier to gaol government, and has mado tho Stat03 easy proy for tho cor? rupt' rings; whllo it has discouraged enterprise, retarded progress and de I Btroyod confidence. Bourbon Damoo racy is on the decline in tho South? patriotism is taking tho placo of preju? dice. Tho people aro looking moro to I tho futuro than the past. Tennessee stands to-day in the heart of tho solid South, parting tho clouds of prejudice and hate that baB hung over it, and I trust uoon tho sunshi le of prosperity will light aliko every Stato in tho I'nion."
