A PARTY SPLIT. Tho Political Outlook in the State of Alabama. DEMOCRATS ARE NG? HARMONIOUS. Kolbites and the Regulars Are Still at Odds. EFFORTS AT COMPROMISE. eee Sa eee Correspondenre of The Evening Star. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., September 30, 1893. Although the next election for governor and other state officers In Alabama does not take place until the first Monday in August, 18H, the campaign has already been opened many months ahead of the time. Unless all signs fail, too, it will be the bit- terest campaign in the state's political his- tory. It is feared if the breach now extsting fm the democratic party is not healed and the two factions gotten together on an equal footing that actual bloodshed may result. It is still the old fight between the Koib- ites or the alliance element led by Capt. Reuben F. Kolb, their twice defeated candi- date for governor, and the regular old line organized democracy, led by the old party war horses It was this latter element that put Gov. Jones into office last year, or at least thot is what the alliance men say. As yet the regular democracy has no avowed candidate for governor, although it seems to be generally belfeved that Congressman William C. Oates of the third district, will be the regular party nominee. He has al- ready signified his willingness to accept the nomination if tendered him. He is regarded as the strongest democratic leader in Ala- The split which now exists In the demo- cratic party in this state, unless peace is patched up, may result in many things. It may end in the defeat of the regular dem- ocracy’s candidates and the election of Capt. Kolb as governor, or it may resuit in bieodshed: or it may allow the repub- leans, negroes and populists to pool issues and elect state officers. It may mean a political upheaval ané revolution in state affairs. Polititians generally fee! that the crisis in the matter of the control of the State's affairs is rapidiy approaching. ‘The Course of the Split The cause of the split in democracy’s ranks is generally known. Capt. Kolb, the leader of the alliance element, was barely defeated for the democratic gubernatorial nomination in isw. His defeat was only ac- complished by all the other candidates poo fag issues and uniting their strength on Gov. Jones, who was nominated and elected. Last year Kolb was again a candidate, party he will make the fight again at the polls. On the other hand there are many old Mine democrats who say that Kolb is not half as strong as he was last year, and that fully seventy-five per cent of those Kolb men who, after the August election, went back to the party and voted for Cleveland will be found next year voting for the reg- ular democratic nominee, whether he be Kolb or somebody else. These men say that Kolb's side shows weakness by asking to be admitted back into the party. They as- sert, too, that the Kolbites are not sincere and that it fs only a trick to be used as campaign material, that they don’t expect to get taken back, but will proclaim from the stump that they had been kicked out and refused admittance. A Hard Nut to Crack. The regular state committee has a hard nut to crack in the matter of reuniting the party and their action is awaited with interest. Meanwhile the peopie’s party is preparing to hold a big state convention here early in October. Chairman Gaither says fully 1,000 delegates will be present. The purpose ef the convention is to map out the work of the coming campaign. It is said the | populists have about decided to put up an | independent s1 ticket of their own and have nothing to do with the Kolb element since that faction has begun making over- tures to the regular democracy. It is said the republicans, too, are prepar- ing to put a full state ticket in the field, If the two democratic factions fail to get | together and ach nominates a separate | ticket, and the republicans and populists | put up candidates. too. the race will be a lively one. Trouble would undoubtedly re- sult. ‘The democratic party in Alabama has reached a crisis in its history. It must soon be determined whether it is to remain di- vided or be asain united. To remain di- vided will mean, many leaders assert, the defeat of the party at the polls and the triumph of negro rule. To unite the fac- tions, voters say, means the election of Kolb and a set of alliance officers, who last year voted for Weaver and fought the reg- ular democracy. E. P. SMITH. a HYATTSVILLE. Republican primaries were held in the several election districts of this county’ last Saturday to choose delegates to the county convention, which assembles at Upper Marl- boro’ today. In Bladensburg district the following delegates were elected: Francis UL. Smith, George Holmes,“Doc™ Lancaster, John Ross, Burda Cully. The Simms fac- tion opposed Lancaster, running David Dock against him as a delegate, but Lan- caster defeated him by four votes. The delegation ts unpledged. ‘The new political organization, known as the Democratic Association ‘of Prince George's county, heid an interesting meet- jag at the Knights of Pythias Hall in Lake- land last Saturday evening. Mr. John L, Surch presided and Mr. Frank Neale acted Messrs. John W. Hicks and Leurs were elected vice presidents of the association for Bowie district. Mr. James Enos Ray was elected vice pres! deat for Bladensburg district. The follow- ing honorary members were chosen: Ex- . Oden Bowie, Col. James G. Berret, Lawrence Gardner and James L. Norris. and so was Jones. Kolb declared that he hac been swindled out of the nomination in 1%, and when he saw he would not be nominated in 189 delegates bolted the moeratic convention and nominated bim on an independent ticker. He made the tace and lacked only 11,000 votes of defeat- ing Gov. Jones, the regular nortince. Then Kolb and many of his Heutenants sup- d the Weaver electoral ticket. How- who voted for Kolb for governor came back into the party and x Cleveland and the national elec These were declared by the state tors. democratic executive committee as being reinstated to the party. Last May the state exec of the Jeffersonian democrts, who followed Capt. Kol last year cal! themselves, met here, and drew a propo- sition which was presented to the regular state democratic executive committee. The Proposition contained a p!an looking for re- untting the two factions of tne party. By ft the Jeffersonians proposed that a state primary election be held uext March and that all white men be allowed to partici- pate jn°it: it was to be a primary for the atfon of state oilficers, the nomine=s it to be the regular demoeritic candi- dates. The two state committees and the two county committees of both factions in each county all over the state were to con- duct the primary. The plaa further pledg- ed the nominees as beings opposed to all laws which tended to the cisfranchisement f any white man. This was regarded by War dem cratic leaders as being a slap in the face for the Sayre election law that was passed by the democrats in the last general assembly, all the Kolb members voting against it. ‘The Proposition Rejected. ‘The regular state democratic executive com- mittee met in Birmingham in Jun+.ar Lafter @ red hot session, refected tne proposition of the Kolb faction. On September 7 the Jeffersonian commit- tee met again and drew up another plan It proposeé a primary election at which al! men who claimed t> have been democrats Prior to 1892, wittout regard to how they Voted in eiter the state or national elec- tion tha: yea-, be allowel t» participate, and come be +i: into th» democratic party. It should be stated, however, that in re- Jecting the first propositioy Chairman Smith of the regular committ wrote to Chair- man Goodwyn of the Jeffersonians that a vote for Cleveland last Novem er would be regarded as the true test of a snan’s democ- racy in Alabama. The way he voted in the August state election would not be consi ered at all. This answer, however, didn’ open the doors of democracy to thousands who had left the party last vear, and not only voted for Kolb for overuor, but had also voted for Weaver for President. This their leaders now admitted was ne in a fit of anger, a® they felt that the regular party lealers had swindied Kolb out of the governorship. ‘Tseere are thousands of people now who still betieve that Capt. Kolb was elected governo: last year, and that he was count- ed out. It has been charged time and again that shady electior methods have beer, in vogue for years among democrats in many countis in this state. Kolb en- dexvored to coniest for the office of gov- @ or before the lesisiature last winter, but @ majority of that bedy woulkin't hear him. He had. so he said. a big amount of proof of fraud at eiections. The Second Proposition. Now,as to the second proposition of the Jeffersonians to get buck into the regular organized party, Chairman Smith of the Tegular democratic committee has just 1s- sued a cail for a mecting of that ‘committee in Montgome-y, October 10, to consider the Proposition. Some action will then be taken. It is almost a foregone conclusion | that the proposition wil! not be accepted it stands now. Chairman Smith himse thinks the plan throws the doors open too wide by taking in all who “claimed to be democrats” prior to 1882; it is apt to cause great confusion, he It is thoucht by many, however. that the recula: committee will likely offer a counter proposition in the | nature of a compromise which the Kolb | element, it is expected, may accept. The general opinion is that’ unless this results there will be no running the democratic | party,and the breach instead of healing will grow wider. There is a very decided senti-} ment among Yhe old leaders, with few ex- | ceptions, not to let this Kolb element back | into the party. These leaders assert that the Kolb men tried last year to turn over Alabama's vote to Harrison by voting for Weaver, and that a trade with that end in view had been entered into by Kolb with | Chris Magee. An exception to this class, however, is ex- Congressman G. W. Hewitt of this city. | He Is the fathe: of the harmony movement among the old line democrats. In fact the latter plan presented by the Jeffersonians is his own idea of getting the party to- | gether again. At a big politica. meeting held here a few nights ago to discuss the Jeffersonian proposition Col. Hewitt satd that unless the plan was accepted the state | would be in danger of negro rule. that the democratic party will split pieces and be defeated all over the state if! they do not unite. At this meeting resolu- | tions were passed, urging the state com- mittee to consider and accept the propos! tion of the Kolb faction. Many leading democratic newspapers in the state are | urring the acceptance of the plan, and openly say that ballot-box stuffing and | fraudulent elections among democrats must cease and the party be united. Kolb Constantly Campaigning. Capt. Kolb, who fs constantly campaign ine over the south and is the avowed can- didate of his faction for governor, says that if the proposition of his committee is ac- cepted he will win the regular democratic nomination, provided a state primary elec- tion fs held. His crowd will not submit to @ state convention, as they say that Kolb has been swindled out of the nomination in two conventions, and he has enough of that sort of business. Kolb further says that if the plan ts not accepted he can beat the regular democratic candidate at the state election by 30,0 majority. In other words he would prefer to be the party committe as those | have been stolen from this vicinity. Thie Mr. John T. Burch made a speech eulogiz- ing Senator Gorman as the recognized lead- er of Maryland politics and stating that the organization was not imbued with mug- wumpism, but was strictly a democratic association ‘This association claims a membership of over a hundred voters. It proposes to give a barbecue and pole-rais- ing at Lakeland at 1 o'clock p.m. on Sat- urday, the lith instant, and to also hold a concert in the evening. Prominent speak- ers are expected to address the meeting. Meetings will also be held in Laurel, Vans- ville, Bladensburg, Kent and Bowie di tricts during the ‘pending campaign. The next meeting will be held at Magruder’s Hail in Hyattsville next Saturday night. A pleasant dance was given at Grange Hall, Beltsville, last Friday night by the young men of the neighborhood.

On a trip yesterday the elevator was led with men. All of them seemed to be intent on business, but there was a peculiar expression on the face of one man in the corner as the elevator ascended and the number representing the floor increased in size. The corners of this man’s mouth dropped lower and lower, and his hands were thrust deeper and ‘deeper into his trousers pocket. When the elevator stop- ped at the ninth floor the old fellow seemed Telieved, but his hands went still deeper when the cage started again. “Ten!” called out the boy. And not until then was the cause of the old man's anxiety known. He pulled out 2 cents, handed them to the elevator man, and exclaimed: “There, conductor, that’ have, but I'll waik down.’ — The American Protective Association promises to cut a greater figure in the ap- proaching election at Denver than the silver all the fare I nominee, but if he can’t get back into the Question. THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D C., MONDAY, OCTOBER 2. 1893—TEN PAGES. MR. GORMAN’S STATEMENT | That the Repeal Bill Will Be Law by the Middle of October. Recent Conference With Maryland Politicians—Demand for Offices— Bolt of Independent Democrats. ‘Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. BALTIMORE, September 0, 1298. Senator Gorman came to Baltimore this week, held a long consultation with the local leaders and went back to Washington apparently well satisfied with thé outlook for democratic success in the coming city and state elections. Several business men who are especially interested in the speedy repeal of the Sher- man law called on the Senator and asked him about the prospects for the possage of the bill to wipe that measure from the sta- tute books. Senator Gorman replied that the bill would undoubtedly become the law of the land before the raiddle of October. The visiting business men went away de- lighted. Senator Gorman also heli a largely at- tended reception of office-seckers, who swarmed into the Carrolitoa Hotel from ull quarters of the state. A smile and a shake of the hand was all’ the encouragement given to any, except the seneral statement that no more offices would be given out un- tl after the election, It is estimated by the democratic party leaders that there are at least twenty-five applicants for every federal office to be given to citizens of this state. As a corroboration of the truth of the above statement Internal izevenue Collector Vandiver has on file over 1,5) written ap- plications for the few places in his office, and more are coming in every day. Congressman Barnes Compton has heen reappointed chairman of the democratic state central committee for the easuing two years. Collector of Internal Revenue Murray Vandiver {s still secretary and treasurer of the committee, and announces his intention of holding on to the place unless President Cleveland interferes an‘ directs him to re- sign one place. In the meantime Wm. L. Lamar of Montgomery county, a nephew of the late Justice Lamar, will act as as- sistant secretary of the committee, and re- eve Mr. Vandiver of a great part of the work. Bolt of the Independeut Democrats. A small section of the independent demo- crats are anxious to get up un old-time fu- sion movement, and are asking the local republican leaders to join in the effort to defeat the democratic ticket. The 1epubli- cans have declined, and will nominate a straighout republican ticket. Fusion move- ments have failed so often that no one has any faith in them. For more than eighteen years in all local elections in Baltimore the republicans and indepenient democrats have united, but election days have always seen their defeat. First Judicial Cireuft Convention. ‘The judicial convention of the first ju- dicial circuit has adjourned until October 9% after casting five thousand two hundred ballots, all of which were withou: result. It is claimed by the friends of Chief Judge Page that an arrangement has been made by which on the reassembling of the con- vention Page and Lloyd, the incumbents, will receive enough votes to insure their success on the first ballot. Judge Holland of Wicomico county, who is Judge Page's competitor for the chief judgeship, will, it is asserted, withdraw, and this will insure the nomination of the present bench. Ex-Governor Elihu E. Jackson has made @ putlic statement to the effect that he is not a candidate for the United States Sen- ate or any other office. The ex-governor and Senator Charles H. Gibson are now on speaking terms after over a year of silence when they happened to meet. This pleas- ant state of affairs has been brought about as @ result of the appointment by Senator Glbsor of Granville R. Ridee to the po- eition of assistant keeper of stationery in the Senate. Mr. Ridee is ex-Governor Jack- son's brother-in-law. nie ee MR. EDISON'S JOKE, Make a Dollar of Pressed Wheat so Itc Be Soaked id Eaten. A new solution of the silver question has been offered by Thomas A. Eiison. In an interview he says: “The hankering after gold and silver is largely traditional. People allow themselves to be governed by the old ideas on the sub- Ject of coinage formulate! at a time when national credits did not exist and currency would only be taken at an intrinsic value. What we need is a new stanJari of value. I think that the best dollar could be made out of compressed wheat. You take a bushel of wheat and squeeze the water out of it and then compress it into a hard cake the size of a silver dollar, and stamp the government mark upon it. “That would represent actual value and labor performed, and then you could eat your dollar, for when you wanted to use the wheat, all that would be necessary would be to put your money to soak. We should then have the bushel of wheat as a permanent unit of value, which all farmers would up- preciate, and the currency of the country would represent actual worth and labor per- formed. Both silver and gold couli then be dispensed with, and the present bimetallic problem solved. Our currensy, moreover, would be as good as gold or silver on the foreign exchange, for our wheat gues to all the countries of the world. “In all this talk about metal for coinag: continued Mr. Edison, “I am surprised that no one has suggested iron. Iron is the most precious metal. Gold is of nu use, or silver either. Mankind has no use for either gold or silver, but iron could net be dispensed with. If’ the people would emy give =p this foolish, traditional, hereditary hankering for gold and silver, those metals would pot be worth the price of old lead, and would be Kicked ‘aside by civiliation,. ‘The human race, on the other hand, cannot dispense with iron. Iron must be produced to ke-p pace with consumption, or its price will steadily rise. “The demand for iron is steady, and will never cease. Therefore, why not issue treasury certificates on iron. This is the greatest iron producing country in the world, and our output amounts annually to more ‘than the otuput of both suid and stl- ver, Instead of loading up the treasury with these useless metais, anil, people would want bills of large ‘dene tion to accompany the wheat dollar, why not buy iron or steel instead, and issue treasury certificates upon that?” —+e<+—___ A Nineteenth Century Canidia. The famous sorceress Canidia, immortal- ized in the Epodes and Satires’of Horace, seems to have left descendants in the Italy of the present day, if we trust a narrative which reaches us from Montelepre, in Sicily. The agricultural poor of that island —with the doubtful exception of those of Sardinia—are, mentally and educationally, the most backward in the Italian kingdom. Rather than call in a medical man in cases of illness they Infinitely prefer the local witch, who, if patients mean fees, must have ‘a relatively lucrative practice. No amount of failure seems to shake the popu- lar belief in the efficacy of such practition- ers, and strong indeed must that belief be which can survive such tragic misadven- tures as she following: A poor girl in her seventeenth year, sub- Ject to neurotic disease inducing convulsive Movements of the body as well as perturba- tion of the mind, was at once pronounced to be possessed of an evil spirit. A witch who was caided in confirmed the popular “diagnosis,” announced the source from which the spirit came, took stock of its qualities and of its strength and appointed the 15th ultimo—the feast of the Madonna of mid-August—as the day on which she would relieve the girl of her tormentor. ‘True to time the Sicilian Canidia appeared on the scene, caused a sufficient quantity of water for a bath to be procured and proceeded to boil it, throwing jn from time to time a handful of herbs. When the bath was"pronounced to be ready the girl was put into it, while some of her relatives stood by and set fire to about half a pound of incense, the fumes of which they forced the girl to inhale by enveloping the bath and herself in it with a sheet. For two hours the unfortunate victim had to un- dergo this ordeal, in spite of her protests that she was being suffocated and ulti- mately of her fainting. This latter phe- nomenon, however, seemed to have admon- ished the witch that the “remedy” had lasted long enough; so the girl, still uncon- scious, was removed to bed, where she breathed her last on the following day. Her agonizing struggles to disengage her- self from the hot bath and the fumes of the incense were, it turned out, ascribed by the | witch to the conflict between the “forza therapeutica” (the therapeutic agent) and the evil spirit, which, like most intruders of the kind, withstood “eviction” to the bitter end. o+—___. ‘This is Fanny, Come to Think of It.

According to the Paris press, Admiral Avelan, who will command the Rupaan squadron, was the hero of a remarkable in- cident when cruising in the Baltic as a midshipman at the beginning of his naval career. On board the same ship was an ex- cuptain, reduced to the work of a common seaman for insulting his admiral. His reinstatement was only possible by an act of bravery. Avelan proposed to him that during a storm he himself would pur- posely fall overboard, when the ex-captain could rescue him, and thus regain his epaulettes. ‘The affair came off as arranged, but the ex-captain was a poor swimmer, and had to be assisted by Avelan. This, however, was unknown, and the ex-captain was soon afterward restored to his rank by the czars orders. The captain is now an admiral, and re- cently, on the fiftieth anniversary of his entrance into the service, gave a dinner, whereat he publicly thanked Avelan as his savior. In an interview on the political prospects M. Ribot expressed his firm bellef that the Dupuy cabinet would live. The country de- sires neither radicalism nor reaction, but a middle course.

The Berlin will then, it is understood, be withdrawn from the Southampton. service. The North-German Lloyds and the Ham- burg-Americai steamship lines, it is de- clared, are about to utilize a recent fuel- saving invention on their steamers. The system prevails in many German factories, and consists of blowing ignited coal dust into a chamber beneath the boilers by jets of compressed air or steam. Every particle of dust is consumed, producing an intense heat. Ample coal dust is available in Ger- many at the rate of a dollar for four tons, and in view of the rising price of coal, the saving will be immense. The result of the recent miners’ confer- ence permitting men to resume work where the old rates are obtainable will be the opening of numbers of small collleries to- day, but the majority of the large mine owners are determined not to open their pits until a reduction has been arranged. It was calculated that 2,000 miners would resume today. All of whom will pay one shilling daily to assist the strikers. The in- crease of five shillings a ton for coal in London yesterday makes a total rise of six- teen shillings since the beginning of the strike. Coal was retailed at two shillings per cwt., the usual price being thirteen pence. It is stated that all the coal in the midlands has been cornered.
