THE' BRITISH ELECTIONS.
- The Gladstonian party at the British
general elections have not been fully, as
successful as was anticipated; Instead
of from 100 to 150 majority, as Gladstone
himself and his enthusiastic supporters
expected, Gladstone and the government
are on about equal terms, lieturns give
the Gladstonians yesterday sixty-two
majority.
The accuracy of the pre-election gauge
of public opinion is remarkable. When
the Salisbury parliament was dissolved
it was with the full knowledge that the
next ministry would be Gladstonian and
' wocld carry a home-rule measure
through the commons. Even the local
ities where the liberal gains are to be
made were pointed out. Thus far the
predictions have proved correct in the
main except as to majorities. There
has been occasional surprises on . both
sides, but the uniform gains of tory
votes in all parts of the kingdom pointed
unerringly to a return of Mr. Gladstone,
but with a crippled power. His major-
' ity cannot be accurately estimated until
the boroughs and rural districts have all
spoken. The tories concede a liberal
majority, and that the Irish party will
certainly hold the balance of power, as
it has done before. As the McCarthy
ites and the Gladstone liberals are in
unison regarding the character of home
rule legislation the probabilities are that
the present Irish factional strife will at
least be held in abeyance until a home
rule bill is passed.
s.The brevity of these British electoral
campaigns is one peculiar feature of par
liamentary law in Great Britain. A few
weeks after the dissolution of one par- I
liament another will be in power. Pub
lic opinion is formed while parliaments
are at work, and when a fresh appeal to
the people is made the issuance of writs
. and the balloting are -crowded into
brief period. But, white- the ' British
system does not permit a long campaign
the few days generally allotted to elec
tion oratory are exciting. The present
election is no exception, and violence
has beeu frequent not only in Ireland
but at various hustlings in England and
Scotland. Gladstone ' lias watched
serenely the incoming tide in his favor,
It is his crowning opportunity. The
house of lords may throw out his hoine
:rule bill, but if it does the veteran liberal
statesman is pieced to help the British
democracy defy, and if neccssarv de
stroy, their tory lordships' power.
A new feature of the labor question
cropped out in Corning, when the Amer
ican flint-glass workers' anion were
holding a convention in that city on -the
11th, and such hostility was shown to it
by thfc citizens that no regular hall could
be secured, and a wigwam had to be
built for the purpose." Permission to
parade was refused the delegates and
every means taken- to show them that
they were not welcome. They were
even said to fear that they would be as
saulted by the non-union men if they
became very demonstrative'. This is
the kind of treatment which union men
have for years been giving to non-union
men. Is the worm going to turn at last?
Does the non-union xaaa propose to
show that he, too, has a right to 'be re
garded as a workingman? ' The feeling
was aroused no doubt because of the
strike, which began two years ago and
onlv terminated last spring, put a big
black eye on the glass industry of Corn:

CLE VELA 3TD HAS' OBJECTIONS. J
It is practically settled now that the
Gladstonian majority in the new! house
will be between 50 and 58. - Official party
estimates put it at 56, and nothing but
wildly improbable gains or losses in the
limited number of constituencies still
out can much alter this. Assuming that
it will be 56, and allowing the Parnell
ites their apparent maximum- of nine,
they may be able, by mutiny, to lessen
this majority to 38.
The United States steamer Boston,
now in San Francisco, has been ordered
to Honolulu to relieve the San Francisco.
This vessel will return ' to Mare, island
navy-yard and have her bottom cleaned
If she was sent to the (Jolumbia river,
her bottom would clean itself. And at
the same time show there is no necessity
for the lake Washington canal appropri
ation.
The wool clip of Montana will aggre
gate 12,000,000 to 15,000,000 pounds this
year. It is of excellent quality, and is
rapidly going into the hands of Eastern
buyers at 17 to '19 cents a pound. AH
kinds of stock are in prime condition.
Very large sales of beef and mutton will
be made. The recent rains have pro-'
duced a heavy growth of grass upon the
ranges, and insured a magnificent crop.
Dispatches today speak of another
bridge to be built across the Niagara
by the Canadian Pacific. From this we
suppose their contest with the Vander-
- bilts is at an end on the bridge question
It has been a long and desperate struggle
The Vandcrbilts beat them once in their
own Ottawa parliament and those charg
ed with the bribes have not yet all been
exported. From the fact that the Can
adian Pacific have purchased a terminal
site near the Erie depot, on the Ameri
can side, we infer that their bridge will
cross to Hublmrds point, on the Canada
side, between the little carriage bridge,
and the cantilever, thus cutting off the
Vandcrbilts view of.the falls.
The proclamation oi Gov. Willey, of
Idaho, that any renegade found in the
'"Coeur d'Alene with dvnamite "be shot

- along with the words of the famous Gen,
Dix, once upon a time when some irre
verent son of the confederacy proposed
to outrage Uncle Sams emblem of true
liberty.

The reported death of William Wal

materialize.

Cyrus W. Field was a believer in in
surance. At the age of 24 years he took i
out a policy of $10,000. When 40 years
old he took one another for the same
amount. By doubled dividends and
total premiums paid, his heirs receive
the sum of 45,565. It is said at various
times during his life Mr. Field increased
his insurance until the face value of the
policies amounted to $250,000. '
- "Recently the pablic was informed f
the organization in. New .Tort of. a
Frances Cleveland influence clnb, for
the purpose of fostering and farthering,
by woman's subtle influence, the cause i
of democracy. Just what the plan of
influential campaign was to be was a j
mystery, though that it would be effica- j
cioua no good and gallant democrat had j
a doubt.- But when Mrs. Cleveland was
officially informed of the movement she
referred the matter to Mr. Cleveland,
and thelatter, after commending the j
efforts and general plans of the, ladies,
writes to them as follows : ; "It is, how
ever, impossible for us to approve of the
use of Mrs. Cleveland's name in the
designation of' clubs designed to do polit
ical work I We trust you will not under
value our objection, because it rests
upon the sentiment that the name now
sacred in tlie home circle as wife' and
mother may well be spared In the organ
ization and operation of clubs created to j
exert political influence."
: On the whole, most husbands, broth
ers aud fathers will be inclined to agree I
with the author. - Theoretically the pro
cesses' of politics should be such that no
woman might feel unwilling to have her
name -figure therein conspicuously;
Practically the case is otherwise. ' Re
finement and delicacy do not characterize
modern ' politics. -If candidate John
Smith finds that his campaign is to be
supported by the bandying about of Mrs.
Jeannette Smith's name or' its liberal
display in torchlight -transparencies he
will naturally object. It is an objection
of sentiment. of course, but the senti
ment which prompts a man to keep his
wife's name sacred to home uses is not
mawkish. . It is a sentiment which
most men will sympathize with. .

CATARRH
Is a most loathsome, dangerous, and preva
lent malady. It is a blood disease, usually
of Scrofulous origin, and for which local
treatment is useless. Before health is pos
sible, the poison must be eradicated from
the system, and to do this
SUCCESSFULLY
the disease must be treated through the '
blood. For this purpose no remedy is so
effective as Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
" For the past eight years, I have been
severely afflicted with Catarrh, none of the
many remedies I tried afforaing me any re
lief. My digestion was considerably im
paired, and my sleep disturbed by phlegm
dropping into my throat. In September
last I resolved to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla,
began to nse it at once, and am glad to
testify to a great improvement in my health."
