Thk victory which the republican r.rtv won at the ballot box on Tuesday has secured it large majority in the next house. The populists are snowea under in Kansas and Colorado, an fornia has according to present returns AeiA limnrratic iroverrjor. What is the cause of the great democratic de feat? The result must convince rreni riant Cleveland that the democracy, no in Mm moioritv when he nuivu " j was elected, does not endorse bis ad' ministration. The most reasonable cause that can be sivon for the victory ia that the voters, even in the hereto fore solid south, blame the democratic nartv for the "hard times," notwltn standing the fact that the conditions nrecedent to them were inherited lrom the Harrison administration. It is too true that many voters do but little bard thinking but are swayed one way or another by their feelings. Two years hence, unless prosperity ensues In the meantime, the republicans will be finnvnil tint lor. The conviction of the Vreat dally" that the result is an en doriement by the majority of the gold standard is beeeina the question. Tne wild financial theories advanced by the populists have reacted In favor of the republicans. This is sure ana certain that if by book or crook the democratic tartv could have given prosperity to tne country, whether on a gold, silver or wildcat paper basis, it would not now be in the abyss of defeat but on the top-wave of victory. In some school districts ol this county the directors engage teachers be rnunn thev are cheap not because they are well qualified. They invite bids as if for chopping wood or building a barn, and the lowest bidder having a certificate gets the job, as tuougu tne Drime duty of a pedagogue were to herd children. These directors are, no doubt, honest in their Intentions and mean well. Their idea ia to get cheap teacher in order that the money might last long, but forgetting the important fact that a cheap teacher is often tne dearest. It is far better for the children of a district that they be instructed for three months by a capable teacher who loves bis work than five months by a drone who does not care whether school keeps or not. Among the teachers of this county are talented men and women not a few who are conscientious in the discharge of their duties, and in many districts they are recognized as such, but tbey are unjustly placed in pecuniary competition by directors with teachers with little or no qualification, as though, if a five-dollar pony were branded with a certificate on his flank, be would be capable of taking charge of a district school. Whilk the managers of the palatial churches of Chicago were asleep, the Salvation Army fed the 1000 citizens of Pullman who were dying of hunger. Some bad already perished when Capt. YYinchell and bis staff of brave men and women came to the rescue of the famish ing wilh wagon loads of food and clothing and a "God bless you!" on their lips. Their appeal to the merchants produced abundance. But Pull man, instead.contributed 1250,000 to the republican campaign funds. Also in Fall Biver, Mass., the Army seized the opportunity to Bnccor the multitude of penniless cotton operatives during the last great strike. The Salvationists come with the discordant beats of the bass drum and noisy revival songs, and we laugh thereat, but they fulfill the Injunction of the Savior to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, for verily, said he, "inasmuch as ye did it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." The Sal' yation Army's banner, long in triumph over sin and sorrow may it wave I Not many years hence, when the vast forests of Central and South America have been made accessible by railroads, and the great rivers of the plateau of Central Africa have been connected with the sea by means of a railroad from Stanley Falls, and the expenditure of $30,000,000 on the Chicago drainage canal, to be finished but two years hence, has established inland navigation from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the mouth of the Mississippi, the world will he regaled with kaleidoscopic trans formations on the stage of civilization. The Nicaragua canal will not fail as an interlude. In an address delivered at New Haven, Con., by Justice Simeon E. Baldwin of the Conneticut supreme court be stated that "the great danger to republican government in America now cornea from two sources the spread of anarchy and the incorporation into our society of masses of new-come foreigners, un familiar with our institutions and Ig norant of the necessary limits of liberty. Against both these forces the Itoman Catholics are our best allies. It is full time for all Christian men to pull together in warfare with the bad in the world." Thz friends of free silver coinage find their sentiments tersely expressed in this quotation from an interview of Senator J. II. Mitchell, who is bold and fearless champion of the Silver Dollar: "A gold dollar and gold coin generally which have appreciated largely, as has our gold dollar since the demonetization of silver a dollar which prior to its demonetization could be bought with three-quarters of a bushel of wheat, or four pounds of wool, and which now eosu three bushels of wheat and 20 pounds of wool is not an boneat, but a dishonest dollar." Dr. Price's Cream Baklnf Powder Tin Washington foil, which Is cer tainly neither a democratic nor a tariff reform! paper, bears testimony to the good effect of the new tariff law In the following strong langnago, on its eui mrinl man! "The effect of the new tariff law will unquestionably be bene Acini . The treasury will be rohabllltat ed. popular confidence restored and capital lured from Its hiding place Into useful and wholesome activity. Mery body with the faintest glimmer of Intel llgence realizes these truths " Gjidhuitii & Loewenberg, the Port land firm which made a nice stake dur ins the session of the last legislature by the sale of its old stove foundry to the state, is building a tin plate factory at Nw Kensington. Pa. ThU does not look as if the reduction of the tariff on tin will seriously effect its manufacture In the United States, much as the re publican press and orators, during the nranldantial camnalcn. would have made us believe that such action would throttle that "Infant"' industry. Tui New Orleans Picayune has mado a canvass of the Louisiana bounty fed sngar planters, to find what proportion of them have gone over to the republi can party in the new movement based on the tariff, and what proportion still remain democrats. Of those answering its questions 54 per cent, declared that they favored the new movement and would vote the republican ticket: 20 per cent, remained democrats and 20 per cent, were doubtful, or retimed to express their preference. Tom Reed, savs the Welcome, boasts of what the people of this country ac cumulated "during thirty years of re publican administration." But he Is silent as to how and where it was dis tributed, and says nothing alout that greatest republican industry of all the manufacture of millionaires and tramps, "In every state in the union except Mississippi," ssys the Philadelphia Pre$s, "the democratic ranks are shat tered and broken." Are they, indeed? asks the Ndvvberg Tennetteean. Watch the returns and see how the scent of the roses still clings to the Southern ballot box. SALVATION ARMY.
