This article presents information on political developments of several nations. The leading exponent of "nationalism" in Italy, Edward Bellamy, has really rendered the public an important service by his writings, although perhaps not precisely the service that he intended. He has shown that communism is the logical outcome of most of the changes advocated by the modern sentimental school of political economists, and has thus put it in the power of the public to accept or reject these proposals intelligently. In many respects, the action of the New Jersey Democratic Convention last week, is the most significant event of the present popular movement for presidential candidate Grover Cleveland's nomination. New Jersey is the one certain Northern Democratic State, having given its electoral vote for every Democratic Presidential candidate in twenty years.
