They were very successful in this par- ticular - line , for hundreds at their earn- est - solicitation invested every dollar they had , and neb being content with this even went so far as to encumber themselves by mortgaging , some even their household effects , in order to make a complete success. Why not ? Five dollars per ton and twenty tons per acre and no danger of drouth. It's simply like finding money. Oh , no- .It . s a deplorable fact , considered in its entirety. We have never witnessed a- more gross misrepresentation. The facts and results are simply this : We have hundreds of acres of beets on hand , and arc confronted daily with a reply , "We will notify you when to ship , as they do not come up to the require- ments - of our contract. " We might be content with this particular phase of the situation if some of the favored few did not get to ship forty to fifty cars , while other adjoining fields planted on the same day and under like conditions receive no orders at all , only "Silo or dispose of them if you can , " Stop. and reflect a moment When you consider winter is staring these poor unfortu- nates - in the face and not an available dollar to meet its exigencies. It is no uncommon sight to see tears trickle down the cheeks of the brawny sons of- toil. . And well may them weep , for it- is a well known fact that if every man should receive an order to ship at once they could not harvest this immense crop of beets before frost would inter- fere - ; hence the eagerness for the longed for word , "Ship. " Eloping Girls Return.- A . Waverly dispatch says : Miss Ward , one of the young women who eloped from here last week , has returned and gives lull details of the case. She states that there were a number in the plot and some acted as accomplices , one of whom was bribed with a fine present He was about to give the snap away when he was threatened. The party left Lincoln on the 2 o'clock train for Omaha , but paid the conduc- tor - to let them off at a suburb of- Omaha. . They then took a dummy for Council Bluffs. In a few hours they were joyfully on their way for Kansas City , at which place the young women realized their situation and concluded to proceed no further , Druggist Vin- ing - left at once with them for their home. Before they started buck Dr- .McCandless . had Miss Miller return the watch that lie had presented her. When the party reached St. Joseph on the return trip Miss Miller stopped , meeting a friend there. Vining and Miss Ward' came on to Greenwood , from which place she notified her par- eats here yesterday afternoon by letter and then by telephone that she would return home at once if received with- out - any punishment or rebuke , and that she and Vining would be married as soon as a divorce could be procured through the Arizona courts. This afternoon J. li. Miller received a mes- sage - iroin the manager of the St. Joseph Herald , asking if hiss Miller could return to the parental roof , to which he wired 'Yes" at once. The parents of the girls are greatly relieved at the outcome and shed tears of joy 'nstead of sadness. Encouraging Beet Producers. The Oxnard beet sugar company a. Grand Island has offered to take those beets which do not come up to the standard in purity and saccharine con- tents - , in the following circular : "We have been asked by several committees representing beet growers if we would accept beets below 12 per cent sugar and 80 per cent purity at a reduced price , with the object of saving as much as possible of the crop. We are disposed to do this , after we have worked up beets coming up to the re- quirement - of our contract , for which we pay 45 , in compliance with the law passed by the late legislature. We are not able today to say what we can pay for such low test beets , but after care- fully - investigating the whole subject we will , within one week, name you a price which you can afford to pay for all beets containing less than 10 per- cent sugar and 70 per centpurity. The season is advanced and when you har- vest - your crop , which we think it wise now to do , be careful in tapping your beets to cut off all the frozen part , that they may be well preserved in the si- los. - . " Since there are always some beets which will not come up to the require- ments - , and which therefore are fed to stock , this offer , if the prices to be named later are reasonable , will no doubt be accepted with satisfaction to the producers , especially since in Hall county there is an abundance of other food fet wintering stock. Ida Gaskili's Murderer. Blair dispatch : Morgan , who is ac- cused - of a criminal assault upon and murder of Ida Gasltill , is known here , and he was jailed here on the charge of attempting a criminal assault but was released. ' His release was because the jury thought the evidence not strong enough to convict. His intended victim , as charged , was a girl 7 years old. He had tried coaxing a number of girls to go out walking with him but failed and was watched. When he enticed this girl out of town and had gone about a quarter of a mile her sis- ter - and a young man overtook them , and feeling certain that his designs were evil , they rescued the girl and had Morgan arrested. That was two years ago. Not long after Morgan was convicted of burglary of Arndt's cigar factory and saloon and sent to the pen- itentiary. - . Dorsey Must Pay. Judge Shiras today , says a Lincoln dispatch , rendered his decision in the ' case wherein Albert Watkins , as re- ceiver - for the Ponca National hank , sought to have a transfer of stock by- G. . W. E. Dorsey to Prank Dorsey set aside. The receiver alleged that Frank Dorsey was insolvent and the transfer , just before the fpilure of the bank was- te protect G W. E. Dorsey from liabil- ity - to assessment. The court set aside the transfer , and the judgment recites that ( : W. E , Dorsey must pay theas- i sessments , which amount to 100 per cent. I Y REPUBLICAN.EV- ERYTHINGSEEMSTO . BE ONE WAY POLITICALLY.- flepabllcawi . Take All There Was In Sight -Even Maryland and Kentucky Wheel Into Bapnblican Line-Democrats snd Populists Not In It to Any Extent. Results f- the Elections. Elections t # held on the 5th in twelve states one territory in the United States : he territory is Utah , and the states dre Nebraska , Kansas , Iowa , Kentucky , Massachusetts , Mary- land - , Mississippi , New Jersey , New York , Pennsylvania , Ohio and Vir- ginia. - . The election in most of the states was upon local issues pure and simple or upon other questions which do not divide the two great national parties. Returns received from vari- ous - points are as follows : NEBliASKA.- OtiIAIIA . , Nov. 7.Latest and almost complete returns from the city and county sustain , with few exceptions , the estimate of the result of the elec- tion - as printed- .Broatch's . plurality for mayor over Brown is 985 and all the city offices will be filled by men named at the repub- lican - convention. Complete returns have been received from every voting district in the city on city officers showing all republicans elected. The same is true regarding the school board. Two of the county commissioaers on the citizens' ticket were successful. For sheriff the re- publican - candidate was elected. The returns on thestate judicial thei- ret - so far as received indicate a very close election , in fact , the result is so much in doubt that both republicans and populists are claiming the victory. Chairman 11 Liner of the republican state central committee , while admit- ting - that upon the surface of the situa- tion - the contest is a close one , refuses to admit for a mofnent that Judge Nor- viii - has not been re-elected by a safe'- plurality. . Returns practically complete from the Fourth judicial district show that the citizens elect two judges , Keysor and Duthie , while the republicans elect Baker , Dickinson , Powell Scott and Slabaugh. It is possible that the miss- ing - precinct in the Eighth ward of Omaha may elect Ferguson instead of- Duthie , but Fawcett of the republican ticket is out of the race by 500 votes.- 0M.4IrA . , Now. Nov. S.-Official returns from Nebraska are being made up very slowly , but as far as received-they in- dicate - the re-election of Chief Justice Norval by a plurality of somewhere in the neighborhood of 6000. From returns at hand the World- Herald feels safe in giving the follow- ing - as the list of district judgs elected : First District-Stull and Latton , reps. Second District-Ramsey , dem- .'t'hird . listrict-Hall and Holmes , present incumbents , and Cornish , all reps. Fourth District-Keysor and Scott , present incumbents , and Baker , Dick- inson - , Fawcett , Powell and Slabaugh , all reps. Fifth District-Bates , present incum- bent - , pop , and Sedgwiclc , rep.

Fifteenth District - Kinkaid , rep. , present incumbent , and Westover , pop. This snakes a netgain' to the repub- licans - of four judges , losing three and gaining seven. MASS ACIIUSETT. . BOSTON, Nov. 7.Corrected returns now at hand show that Governor Green- halge - is re-elected by 63,444 plurality , which is 1,933 votes above his plurality last year. Municipal suffrage for wo- men was defeated by a majority esti- mated - at over 75000. rENNsYLVANIA- .PmLADELI'IILt . , Nov. 5.Returns re- ceived - up to midnight indicate that Benjamin1. Iiayward , republican , has been elected state treasurer by about' ' 150,000 plurality , a republican gain over 1893 , which was also an off year , I of about 15000. This state also elects seven judges of the new superior court.- Of . these the six republicans nominated I are elected. The seventh man on the ticket is in doubt. 1 ANSAS. KANSAS CITY, Nov. 7.Kansas re- turns - today show that the republicans made practically a clean sweep of the , state. carrying a majority of the coun- ties - entire , and electing many of the officers of the others. C. K. hlolliday , independent candidate for chief justice , admits David Martin , his republican i opponent , will have 40,000 majority. ' low A. DES .llolx. . . C , November 6.The re- . ) publican state committee now claim 70.000 for Drake as the least figure. Indications are that Drake will run slightly behind the rest of the state ticket. I The entire state has cast a light vote but the republicans show a net gain over last year in spite of this. The populists also show heavy gains. Last year they polled 34,000 in the state ; it will be about doubled this year- .'she . - legislature will be overwhelm- ingly - republican , the best estimate be- i ing sixty-seven republican members of the house to thirty-three democrats , and thirty-five republican senators to fifteen democrats.- WASIIINGrON . , Nov. 7.Asa result of the latest election returns the repub- licans - gain five United States senators , two from Utah and one from Kentucky , Ohio and Maryland , and the democrats lose three senators , one each from Kentucky , lfaryland and Ohio. None of these changes become effective , how- ever - r , until Marcfi 4, 1897 , except in the case of the two Utah senators who will take their seats as soon as chosen. Thereafter the numerical strength in the senate will be as follows : Repub- licans - , forty-four ; democrats , thirty- nine ; populists , six ; vacant ( Delaware ), one ; total , eighty-eight. If the Dela- ware - vacancy is filled by a republican it will give a republican majority.- I . - NEW TORS. NEW YoRS , Nov. 7.The total unofi vial vote for secretary of state is : King , democrat , 505,500 ; Palmer , republican , 573,535 This makes Palmer's plurality 60535. The vote in 1803 was : Palmer , 545,098 ; Myer , 120,614 ; Palmer's plural- ity - , 24484. 01110. COLUMBUS , Nov. 7.Chairman Ander- son cnncedes the state to the republi- cans - by 00000. Chairman hurts says Bushnel's plurality will not be less than 100000. The vote for Coxey , pop- ulist - , will be about 15,000 less than last year. At present the senate will stand : Republicans , thirty ; democrats , six ; fusion populist , one. In the house the republicans have eighty-seven and the democrats twentyfive.M- AIYLAND. . . BALTI33IORE. Now. 7.Returns fron. every county in the state , partly esti- mated - , give Lloyd' Lowndes , republi- can - , a majority over E. Hurst demo- crat - , for governor of 19715. Not only have the republicans elected their en- tire - state and city ticket , but they have carried the legislature , which , accord- ing - to figures at hand now , will stand , in the house , sixty-eight republicans to- twentyfour democrats , and in the sen- ate - fifteen democrats to eleven repub- licans. - . IIIINOIS.- SI'RINOFIELD . , Ill. , Nov. 7.It is the. belief of Governor Altgeld that the greater republican landslide of yester- day - was brought about chiefly through the treachery of the national adminis- tration - and the goldbug wing of the democracy in Wall street. Democratic conventions in many states , he says , were packed by postmasters and meni- als - of the administration who forced the administration or Cleveland's policy on the money question. The state has gone largely republican. NEW JERSEY : NEwAltlr , Nov. 7.The election of- Griggs was known to be a certainty itt 10 o'clock last night , but at that hour 12,000 and 14,000 were all that the lead- ers - of the republican party claimed. Later they advanced their claims under the influence of the press returns to 22000. The results in the counties as filed show that Griggs received 26,960 plurality over NcGi11. The republi- cans - from one end of the state to the other were celebrating today and boast- ing - that this time next year will find New Jersey safely in the republican ranks. KENTUCxY- .W.tsiIINGTOs . , Nov. 7.The hopcles : condition presented by the Kentucky democracy is regarded as a rebuke to the free Silver democrats , and the pres- ident - and Secretary Carlisle have con- fidently - expected the defeat of Hardin and Blackburn , or their election by ma- jorities - so meager as to amount practi- cally - to defeat. UTAH- .SVLT . LAKE , Nov. - republicans have elected the state ticket and car. reed the legislature by a safe majority. Republicans elect twenty-nine repre- sentatives - , democrats seven , with nine still in doubt. Three judges of the su- preme - court are elected.R- EI'UBLiC.&NS . M AEE GAINS IX COLORADO- .1)INVER . , Nov. 7.Party lines were not closely drawn in the Coloradocoun- ty - elections , but the republicans claim , to have made gains outsde of Denver- .In . this ( Arapahoe ) county the election was very close , and the result being still in doubt as to some of the offices. Two candidates on the taxpayers' tick- et - ( General Frank hail for treasurer , and Willard L. Ames for assessor ) ap I pear on the returns so far received as having been certainly elected. The re- publicans - probably hold all the other officers. The result is regarded as a defeat of the tramway company and the Denver Union Water company , which fought Ames bitterly on account of his efforts as an alderman to secure'- a reduction of water rates- .INGERSOLL . ON POLITICS.C- rltIcises . Cleveland and Predicts Repub- Iican - Success in 1390.- PITTBrRG . , Pa. , Nov. 8.Discussing the result of the elections , Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll said : "Cleveland's administration is a , failure , a succession of blunders , T'he Democrats are dissatisfied with Cleve- land. - . lie is obstinate , unsocial , ego- tistic - , asks no advice and till es none.- He . is utterly indifferent as to the ad- vice - of others. He imagines that he- is the whole Democratic party , with something left over. No party can carry that load. " "Roosevelt and Strong and Park- hurst gave New York city back to- Tammany. . The people wanted a lit- tle - liberty , and were not willing to go back to the ( lays of Cotton . Ohio settled L'ric2 ; that is good. Mary- land - murdered Gorman : that is good. Kentucky went Republican. I know of no expression that will suit that ; It is too rood. All this shows what m- sto happen in 1SiG. ' 1 think the issuesof the next presi- dential - contest will be just the same as they are this year. Both parties willI- be for good money , and consequently the tariff will take the lead. Of course , the Democratic party will make sever- al - blunders before the next election. After all , protection is the issue. We want more revenue , and the people do not want more tax on beer or stamps on checks and contracts. They do not want internal taxation. They ptrant to raise the money for the most part at the custom house. It may be that the Democrats vmhl advo- cate - State banks. If they do , that will be enough to kill their party. We want no more State bank money in ' this country. We want our pacer to- be as good as gold-equal always to the best money h the world. Ilarri- son is not in the presidential lace Allison is somewhat dangerous , but I imagine it will be between Reed and I McKinley. . Whoever is nomiuatcJ twill be elected.

Election Aftermath.W- ASIIINGTON . , i\ov. 8.As a result of the elections Tuesdays the Republicans will gain five United States Senators- two from Utah and one each from Kentucky , Ohio and Maryland , and the Democrats will lose three senators- one each from ICeutucky , Maryland and Ohio. None of these changes will become effective , however , until March 4 , 1807 , except in the case of the two Utah Senators , who will take their seats as soon as chosen. There- after - , the numerical strength in the Senate will be as follows : Republicans , 4.1 ; Democrats , 39 ; Populists 6 ; vacant ( Delaware ) , 1. Total , 88. If the Delaware vacancy is filled by a Repub- lican - it will give a Republican ina- jarity - in the upper branch of Congress. The direct effect of these Repub- lican - victories upon the senate will be- to make it absolutely certain that the Republicans tivill not enter into any combination with the Populists , di- rectly - or indirectly , to secure the or- ganization - of the senate at the ap- proaching - session. ' 'hey have simply to wait a few months and then take control with sufficient votes of their own panty member , . In the mean- time - , with a Democratic executive in time White house nothing could be ac- cotnplished - in the way of legislation , even if the Republicans secure the organization of the senate , and they are not looking now for empty honors- .It . is interesting to note that before March 4 , ISO ?, the successors to outer Democratic Senators may be chosen.- A . Republican may come from New York in place of Davit B. hill ; from Illinois in place of John M. Palmer , and from Wisconsin in place of Willh- amll - U. Vilas. If Indiana and Missouri should go Republican nest year Mr- .Voorhees . and Mr. Vest would step aside , and their places tivould be filled by Senators representing the Republi- can - party.

State Auditor Norman , the Demo- cratic - campaign chairman , in a state- ment - to the Commercial said that Blackburn s defeat is assured- ."The . Republicans , with the help of the Popn fists , will assuredly control time legisla ure , " he said , "amid Black- burn - Is sure to be defeated. Kentucky is now a Republican state. The peo- ple - wanted a change and they took it , time Republicans being aided by both Populists and A. P. A. s. No one could have carried Kentucky at this election , not even Carlisle. " Colonel Bradley will be time choice of his state for the vice presidency , and his friends claim that he will have the support of time Southern Re- publicans. - . It is a significant fact the friends of Governor Morton , as well as the political champions of Governor McKinley , have all been in constant correspondence with the friends of Colonel Bradley , and have urged him to 1)11Sh his claims for second place on time ticket. Colonel Bradley has there- fore - refused to discuss the matter , but it is announced by Mr. Walter For- rester - , secretary of Colonei Bradley's Campaign committee , and managing editor of the Commercial. the Repub- lican - organ of the state , that Colonel Bradley's claims for national recog- nition - will be urged in the next na- tional - contention.

INDIANAPOLIS , Ind. , Nov. 8.Genera al Harrison , when asked for an expres- sion - regarding Tuesday's election said : "Oh , I have nothing to say , except that I heartily rejoiced at the victory of Tuesday. I am giad as any one can be that the principles of the Republican party should meet so strong and wide an indorsement from the people. The States of New Jersey , Maryland and Kentucky arc new stars in our crown , but they are none the less welcome. I am glad that the Republicans of these states , who have so long fought the battle in vain , have now reaped a reward for their devotion to Republican prin- ciples. - .

Sugar Beot.Growers Complain.-A

.correspondent writing from Fre-

mont-

complains of th e growers' wrongs ,

thus : The sugar factory representa-tives

-throughout the entire state visit-

ed-

every hamlet portraying the beau-tics and profit of raising sugar beets.They were very successful in this par-ticular

-

line , for hundreds at their earn-est

-

solicitation invested every dollarthey had , and neb being content withthis even went so far as to encumberthemselves by mortgaging , some eventheir household effects , in order tomake a complete success. Why not ?Five dollars per ton and twenty tonsper acre and no danger of drouth. It'ssimply like finding money. Oh , no-.It

.

s a deplorable fact , considered in itsentirety. We have never witnessed a-

more gross misrepresentation. The factsand results are simply this : We havehundreds of acres of beets on hand ,

and arc confronted daily with a reply ,"We will notify you when to ship , asthey do not come up to the require-ments

-of our contract. " We might be

content with this particular phase ofthe situation if some of the favored fewdid not get to ship forty to fifty cars ,

while other adjoining fields planted onthe same day and under like conditionsreceive no orders at all , only "Silo ordispose of them if you can , " Stop. andreflect a moment When you considerwinter is staring these poor unfortu-nates

-in the face and not an available

dollar to meet its exigencies. It is nouncommon sight to see tears trickledown the cheeks of the brawny sons of-toil. . And well may them weep , for it-

is a well known fact that if every manshould receive an order to ship at oncethey could not harvest this immensecrop of beets before frost would inter-fere

-; hence the eagerness for the

longed for word , "Ship. "

Eloping Girls Return.-

A

.

Waverly dispatch says : Miss Ward ,

one of the young women who elopedfrom here last week, has returned andgives lull details of the case. Shestates that there were a number in theplot and some acted as accomplices ,

one of whom was bribed with a finepresent He was about to give thesnap away when he was threatened.The party left Lincoln on the 2 o'clocktrain for Omaha , but paid the conduc-tor

-

to let them off at a suburb of-

Omaha. . They then took a dummy forCouncil Bluffs. In a few hours theywere joyfully on their way for KansasCity , at which place the young womenrealized their situation and concludedto proceed no further , Druggist Vin-ing

-

left at once with them for theirhome. Before they started buck Dr-

.McCandless.

had Miss Miller return thewatch that lie had presented her.When the party reached St. Joseph onthe return trip Miss Miller stopped ,

meeting a friend there. Vining andMiss Ward' came on to Greenwood ,

from which place she notified her par-eats here yesterday afternoon by letterand then by telephone that she wouldreturn home at once if received with-out

-

any punishment or rebuke , andthat she and Vining would be marriedas soon as a divorce could be procuredthrough the Arizona courts. Thisafternoon J. li. Miller received a mes-sage

-iroin the manager of the St.

Joseph Herald , asking if hiss Millercould return to the parental roof, towhich he wired 'Yes" at once. Theparents of the girls are greatly relievedat the outcome and shed tears of joy'nstead of sadness.

Encouraging Beet Producers.The Oxnard beet sugar company a.

Grand Island has offered to take thosebeets which do not come up to thestandard in purity and saccharine con-tents

-

, in the following circular : "Wehave been asked by several committeesrepresenting beet growers if we wouldaccept beets below 12 per cent sugarand 80 per cent purity at a reducedprice , with the object of saving asmuch as possible of the crop. We aredisposed to do this , after we haveworked up beets coming up to the re-

quirement-

of our contract , for whichwe pay 45 , in compliance with the lawpassed by the late legislature. We arenot able today to say what we can payfor such low test beets , but after care-fully

-

investigating the whole subjectwe will , within one week, name you aprice which you can afford to pay forall beets containing less than 10 per-cent sugar and 70 per centpurity. Theseason is advanced and when you har-vest

-your crop , which we think it wise

now to do , be careful in tapping yourbeets to cut off all the frozen part , thatthey may be well preserved in the si-

los.-

. "Since there are always some beets

which will not come up to the require-ments

-

, and which therefore are fed tostock , this offer , if the prices to benamed later are reasonable , will nodoubt be accepted with satisfaction tothe producers , especially since in Hallcounty there is an abundance of otherfood fet wintering stock.

Ida Gaskili's Murderer.Blair dispatch : Morgan , who is ac-

cused-

of a criminal assault upon andmurder of Ida Gasltill , is known here ,

and he was jailed here on the chargeof attempting a criminal assault butwas released. ' His release was becausethe jury thought the evidence notstrong enough to convict. His intendedvictim , as charged , was a girl 7 yearsold. He had tried coaxing a numberof girls to go out walking with himbut failed and was watched. When heenticed this girl out of town and hadgone about a quarter of a mile her sis-

ter-

and a young man overtook them ,

and feeling certain that his designswere evil , they rescued the girl andhad Morgan arrested. That was twoyears ago. Not long after Morgan wasconvicted of burglary of Arndt's cigarfactory and saloon and sent to the pen-itentiary.

Dorsey Must Pay.Judge Shiras today , says a Lincoln

dispatch , rendered his decision in the '

case wherein Albert Watkins , as re-

ceiver-

for the Ponca National hank ,sought to have a transfer of stock by-G. . W. E. Dorsey to Prank Dorsey setaside. The receiver alleged that FrankDorsey was insolvent and the transfer

, just before the fpilure of the bank was-te protect G W. E. Dorsey from liabil-ity

-

to assessment. The court set asidethe transfer, and the judgment recitesthat (: W. E, Dorsey must pay theas- i

sessments , which amount to 100 percent. I

the estimate of the result of the elec-tion

-as printed-

.Broatch's.

plurality for mayor overBrown is 985 and all the city offices willbe filled by men named at the repub-lican

-convention.

Complete returns have been receivedfrom every voting district in the cityon city officers showing all republicanselected. The same is true regardingthe school board. Two of the countycommissioaers on the citizens' ticketwere successful. For sheriff the re-

publican-

candidate was elected.The returns on thestate judicial thei-

ret-

so far as received indicate a veryclose election , in fact , the result is somuch in doubt that both republicansand populists are claiming the victory.Chairman 11Liner of the republicanstate central committee , while admit-ting

-

that upon the surface of the situa-tion

-

the contest is a close one , refusesto admit for a mofnent that Judge Nor-viii

-

has not been re-elected by a safe'-plurality. .

Returns practically complete fromthe Fourth judicial district show thatthe citizens elect two judges , Keysorand Duthie , while the republicans electBaker , Dickinson , Powell Scott andSlabaugh. It is possible that the miss-ing

-

precinct in the Eighth ward ofOmaha may elect Ferguson instead of-

Duthie , but Fawcett of the republicanticket is out of the race by 500 votes.-

KANSAS CITY , Nov. 7.Kansas re-

turns-

state. carrying a majority of the coun-ties

, Ill. , Nov. 7.It is the.belief of Governor Altgeld that thegreater republican landslide of yester-day

the treachery of the national adminis-tration

Cleveland and Predicts Repub-Iican

-Success in 1390.-

PITTBrRG.

, Pa. , Nov. 8.Discussingthe result of the elections , ColonelRobert G. Ingersoll said :

"Cleveland's administration is a ,

failure , a succession of blunders , T'heDemocrats are dissatisfied with Cleve-land.

-. lie is obstinate , unsocial , ego-

tistic-

, asks no advice and till es none.-He

.

is utterly indifferent as to the ad-

vice-

of others. He imagines that he-is the whole Democratic party , withsomething left over. No party cancarry that load. "

"Roosevelt and Strong and Park-hurst gave New York city back to-Tammany. . The people wanted a lit-tle

-liberty , and were not willing to go

back to the (lays of Cotton.Ohio settled L'ric2 ; that is good. Mary-land

-murdered Gorman : that is good.

Kentucky went Republican. I knowof no expression that will suit that ;

It is too rood. All this shows what m-

sto happen in 1SiG.' 1 think the issuesof the next presi-

dential-

contest will be just the same asthey are this year. Both parties willI-be for good money , and consequentlythe tariff will take the lead. Of course ,the Democratic party will make sever-al

-blunders before the next election.

After all , protection is the issue. Wewant more revenue , and the peopledo not want more tax on beeror stamps on checks and contracts.They do not want internal taxation.They ptrant to raise the money forthe most part at the custom house. Itmay be that the Democrats vmhl advo-cate

-State banks. If they do , that

will be enough to kill their party. Wewant no more State bank money in '

this country. We want our pacer to-be as good as gold-equal always tothe best money h the world. Ilarri-son is not in the presidential laceAllison is somewhat dangerous , but Iimagine it will be between Reed and I

Election Aftermath.W-ASIIINGTON

.

, i\ov. 8.As a result ofthe elections Tuesdays the Republicanswill gain five United States Senators-two from Utah and one each fromKentucky , Ohio and Maryland , and theDemocrats will lose three senators-one each from ICeutucky , Marylandand Ohio. None of these changes willbecome effective , however , untilMarch 4 , 1807 , except in the case ofthe two Utah Senators , who will taketheir seats as soon as chosen. There-after

-, the numerical strength in the

Senate will be as follows : Republicans ,4.1 ; Democrats , 39 ; Populists 6 ; vacant(Delaware ) , 1. Total , 88. If theDelaware vacancy is filled by a Repub-lican

-it will give a Republican ina-

jarity-

in the upper branch of Congress.The direct effect of these Repub-

lican-

victories upon the senate will be-to make it absolutely certain that theRepublicans tivill not enter into anycombination with the Populists , di-rectly

-

or indirectly , to secure the or-ganization

-of the senate at the ap-

proaching-

session. ' 'hey have simplyto wait a few months and then takecontrol with sufficient votes of theirown panty member , . In the mean-time

-, with a Democratic executive in

time White house nothing could be ac-cotnplished

-in the way of legislation ,

even if the Republicans secure theorganization of the senate , and theyare not looking now for empty honors-

.It.

is interesting to note that beforeMarch 4 , ISO ? , the successors to outerDemocratic Senators may be chosen.-A
