FRIDAY NOVEMBER 14, 1884 Clbveland Elected! THE HUMILIATING DEFEAT REPORT ED BY US LAST WEEK HAS GRACIOUSLY MERCIO INTO VICTORY ! The old horse is worn out and broke down in the last campaign. And the people sick and tired of the old hack have cast him aside as useless, An I are thondcring forth their plaudits over the victory of the right a tttl.1T TltTOBl The Lisiory of the country fails to record so extraordinary a political victory as that gained by the Democra tic party in the election of Grover Cleveland. When we consider the ob stacles which the party had to overcome to secure success, oar amazement is to be measured only by the grandeur of the victory. When we look back over the histcry of the successes oi the Re publican party for the last twenty-five years and consider the means which it has nsed to secure these successes, when we consider that much of the legislation Af . r AAA . t tmm t oi congress irom icon to ion was eaacted for the sole purpose of main taining and entrenching that party in power, when we consider that every department of government in all its features hu been administered with a view of strengthening that party in power, it challenges our admiration to see the Democratic party with no laws in its favor, with no federal office holders to fight its battl -s and furnish the sinews of war, in fact with nothing but the righteousness of its cause to recommend it to the country, march on and secure one of the most signal tri umphs in either modern or ancient poli tics. We see it is the success of the peo pla over a conclave of the moat unscru pulous and dangerous set of ambitious schemers that ever held power in any government. It is a timely check of the rapid growth of a dangerous aristo cracy one that would ultimately, and maybe very soon, result in the destruct ion of constitutional government. The great body of the people, whether Dem ocrats or Republicans, are honest and patriotic, nod when they can act with unprejudged mind,tbey may safely be relied upon to act in the direction of good government and good morals. But the rack and tile of the Republican party were misled and deceived as to the objects and purposes of their lead ers, but the scales have now fallen from their eyes ani these leaders will sink to political obiivion from which they can never be resurrected. Of all the checks which the reput lero National Committee received from federal offiieials all over the country they bore no comparison to the one which the democrats sent In by way of the polling places Nov, 4. We want it understood that we are not weeping with those that weep We hav'n't time. We are putting in all our time rejoicing- with those that rejoice. Mr. OrtgonianMow us to Introduce "Old Tom Hendrickf'Vice President elect of' the United States. saw! 3 Gflftasva m m Five minutes before we went to press last week an associated press dispatch was received here giving what purported to be the official vote of New York, giving Blaine a plural ity of 616 which, if true, of course would elect him. We had merely time and space to make this announcement, wbicli,asa dispenser of news, it was our duty to do so. We understand that goeae democrats have criticised (our course In the matter, by t our friends must remember that the Democrat Is a newspaper whose duty it Is to dis pense news whether good or bad. Certainly, no one doubts the devotion and fidelity of the Democrat to the democratic party but we are often call ed upon to chronicle unpalatable news and this, as a public Journalist, with out fear or favor. BSD IT U ttMMM. As neatlr ss sen be ascertained at the present Usee the majorities m Ore. gn for Cleveland and Blaine are a follows : Blaine. Cleveland.

Does our friend "cumtnxt" The Oregonian reminds us of the Berlin street bu aimer, who, on his death bed, lamented bitterly that hw was about to die. His attendant, wit b the view of consoling him, told htm he should not worry so much as he had hot one time to die anyway. The bummer, nnconsoled and in tears, re plied whimperingly .that that was the reason be regretted It so much, for If he had ten times to die be could stand this once, but this one would let him out This one seems to let the Oregomam out. The ordinary republican majority In Buffalo where Gov. Cleveland has his home is 5000. Mr. Blaine bad. bat 1000 majority. Gov. Cleveland own ward usually gives 700 republi can majority. Blaine got 200 major ity. These facta are monumental overpowering contradictions of the stones which Rev, Ball has so assid uously and industriously been circula ting during the campaign. Mr. Ball will now be regarded as ha vine a Kind of base bill reputation. The Murcury says: "It Is fairly estimated that at least 80,00cbang. ed bauds in Portland over the result of the election. At this rate It would be safe to assume that the Democrats are at least $10,000,000 ahead throug- out the United States,and the Repub lican party Is thai much worse off. It Is doubtful If the money bet and lost Is not worth more than the Presiden cy Itself." It was a righteous tbiog for the ne groes of the fourth Congressional dis trict of Louisiana to join hands with the democrats and defeat Kellogg for Congress. The district has heretofore been republican y 9000 majority but the colored voters from choice have made it democratic. A little boy standing on the street was seen to be holding his forefinger of one hand in the palm of the other hand, and laughing heartily. Some one asked him what he was laughing at, when he said he was laughing be cause be had cut his finger only half off. A Republican friend of ours was rejoicingtne other day because they had not lost Vermont. He laughs best who laughs last. Those republicans who stood on the streets last week and laughed at dem ocrats for the bets tbey had made will now be called upon to pay these bets while democrats laugh. We wera old enough to read about governmental affair and partisan pol nice wnen the repuoitcan party was born. We have been an interested observer of its eventful life. We have seen its tottering form on the down grade to political destruction. We stood but Tuesday week on the verge of the grave and saw it buried deeply. and "shed not a last tear." How amusing it is to hear the lam entations and curses and to see the wri things and contortions of the Ort soman in the throes of political death How must the consciences of those democrats who voted for Blalns now upbraid and reprove them. narriTM is ore rttitaioiK-mi. fcur- Tiex avtTta. Ex-Senator Buokalew of Peuosylva- . j ii nia aaye it must ue agreed upon an hands that the evils, abuses and scan dals which attend our great elections require some radical amendment of system which shall prevent their con tinuanoe and increase in the future ; therefore, attention should be dirtoted to such salutary and effectual ohanges as have been proposed or can be devised for our protection against such ascer tained evils and dangers. Prior to 1874, Pennsylvania was a Kettle gtound in Presidential elections, and upon several occasions vast sums of money were expended within her limits to control her vote. The cry was : 'As goes Pen osy Irani, so goes the Union and all the sinister iulluences which may pollute or effect elections were called into existence here. The effects are jet felt witbia our State, and our experience fusnisbes an Inst motive lesson, not to be overlooked or disre garded; But, among the substantial reforms established by our Constitution al Convention of 1873, was the changing of the time of our general election from the second Tuesday of October to a date in November uniform with that established in most of the other States. Undoubtedly this was a measure of reform and purification for ua ; but the evil which we escaped by judicious action remained in full force in Ohio and Indiana and yet remains with she former State, for the urodisious effort made at the recent election in Ohio was mainly owing to the unchanged date at which her people were called upon to pronounce their political opinions. The remedy needed to mitigate or destroy the abuses end evils which have obtained in our great elections mast be radical and thorough in character Preaching against tboae evils oreipre. ling regret at their occurrence will hav little effect so long as the eeuaes which produce them are left to operate with fall force. We must remove the motive to do evil, at least we mutt render illegitimate influence upon elcttoos comparatively unprofitable or fruitless of results. And this can certainly be done by the adoption of what is known as the Maish amendment to the Con stitution of the United Slates, either in the form in which it was recommend ed by e committee of the lions of Representatives some years ago.or in a form substantially similar to their re porta.. tux maisr rum. By tbet plan electors and electoral colleges were abolished, but electoral votes retained to the States precisely aa at present. The people were to vote directly for Presidential candidates, returns in each State to be made as in the case of Governor .and electoral votes of the Slate assigned to each candidate voted for in proportion to hie popular votes ; the result in each State to be ascertained and certified by the Gov ernor, Secretary of the Commonwealth and Chief Justice of the 8tate. Inasmuch as this plan would abolish pivotal States, as a State majority would not control or cast the whole electorial vote of a State, the debauch -ment of States controlling netioaat elections would come to an end ; in other words, the motive for .urchasing or control line a few Ststes holding the balance of power between parties would be wholly removed. The ratio requir ed for one electoral vote would be, say, 40,000 popular votes, from which it would result that a dahanebmeat of ten, fifteen or twenty thousand votes in a State would have no effect at all upon the result, snd if the iniquity were doubled it could at most affect but one electoral vote of a State instead of controlling the whole. It would follow that inasmuch as any ordinary exnditure of money in a State to influence ita election would not probably affect the result, no corrup tion fond trould be provided or Used. Now, in many States ten or twenty thousand votes constitute the balance of power between political parties, and the party which obtains it by legitimate means takes to itself the whole fower of the State in the election, whether it be thirty-six electoral votes in New York, thirty in Pennsylvania or thirteen in Indiana. Instead of the result in a close contest depending on the votes of one, two or three States, known before hand and upon which corrupt influence would be concentrated, the struggle for power between parties would be dis tributed with healthy activity and com petition through all the Ststes and the result depend upon an average of effort and public sentiment in all parts of the Union. GOOD RESULTS TO BE OBTAINED. Another result of the plan would be that each candidate for President would obtain electoral votes in just proportion to his popular vote in each State. Such a result aa that of 1860, when Mr. Douglas, with more than twice as many popular votes as Mr. Breckonridg, ob tained less than one-half the electoral votes given to the latter, woul 1 be im possible. It would, morover, be almost certain to prevent the impossibility of a disputed Presidential election such as that which agitated and imperiled the country in 1876. ' In addition to this it would be convenient, or at least tol erable, upon this plan to accept the plurality rule in Presidential elections which obtains in most other popular ones in this country, and assign th Presidential office to the candidate) highest in electoral votes, without in sorting(iu case of no absolute majority, i to the unsatisfactory snd perilous device of an election by the Hooee of Repre sentatives, voting by States as provided by the existing Constitution. Ths Maish amendment would have rendered Pennsylvania elections in form-; er times, when she was a pivot State comparatively uptight, pure and of good repute, and would have produced the same result more recently and now In Indiana, Ohio, New York, New Jersey, Cvnnsotiout and other States. Judgiug of a system by Its fruits, according to the admonition of the great Master,onr present system stands condemned and the change proposed Is recommended to us by considerations the most welghtyi decisive and commanding. OBJECTION TO DHBOT VOTINO. It is idle to resort, ai some persons have proposed, to a popular vote plan, pure and simple, dispensing with elec toral votes and returning popular votes in mass, with the plurality rule applied to the returns. Independent of moat weighty and grave objections to such a plan upon its merits, it is impracticable, because the smaller States and those of medium siae will not agree to surrender large part of the electoral power which they bow possess under the Con stitution. A constitutional amendment must be adopted by three-fourths of the States, but a majority of these would lose from two-thirds to about ona-luorth of their electoral power by substituting popular in place of electo ral votes. Nor woold Colonel Benton's plan of dividing the States into electoral dis tricts be acceptable or tolerable, for is woold give rise to gerrymandering on a fearful scale throughout the country aod would produce infinitely more mis chief than it would correct. Nor would the plan of George Trek nor Curtis, con tained in the recent number of the Cautery magaaine, reach and amend the prtneioal evil in our great elections, namely, the corruption of the popular vote. He would have all the electors of the United States meet together aa one body, with power to decide contes ted seats, and confer together aa to their ultimate choice ef Chief Magistrate. We must strike deeper than this plan proposes if we wsnld reach the source of evil end secure effectual amendment. tsib iinnaTwrr art is the went. A correspondent ef the New Orleans Democrat asys, as a great many of your readers labor under aa erroneous lea preseioa as to which city is the largest in the world, probably the following few well authenticated statistics may not be out of place in your widely read journal. London, England,! the great est ciry the world ever saw. It is the heart of the Britiah Empire aod the world. It covers within the fifteen miles radius ot Charing Cross (Strand) 700 seoare miles. It numbers within these boundaries 5,000,000 of inbabi tan is. It comprises over 200,000 for eigners from every q us iter of the globe. It contains more Roman Catholics thao Rome itself ; more Jews thee the shole of Palestine ; more Irish than Dublin Scotchmen then Edinburgh Welshmen tban Uardin ; more country raised persona tban the counties of Devon, Warwickshire and Durham combined. Has a birth in it every five minutes ; has a death in it every eight minutes ; has seven accidents every day in its 8000 miles of streets ; haa on an average forty miles of streets opened and 15,000 new bouses built in it every year. In 188S there were added 22,1 10 new houses to the vast aggregate of dwellings which is called the metrop olis, thus forming 368 new streets and one new square, covering a distance of sixty-six miles and eighty-four yards. It is difficult to form any mental picture from these figures. Brighton, tbe queon of watering places, in 188i,bad 20,879 inhabited bouses, so thai London in 1888 added to itself a town bigger tban Brighton, It would require two Cam bridges, or Oxfords, or Bathf to repre sent tbe addition made to London in a single year. London baa 46,000 per sons annually added by birth to its population , baa over 1000 ships and 10,000 sailors in its port every day ; haa as many beer shops and gin palaces as would, if placed side by aide, stretch from Charing Cross to Portsmouth, a distance of seventy-eight miles; haa 88,000 drunkards annually brought before ite magistrates; has seventy miles of open shops every Sunday ; has sn influence with all parts of tbe world represented by a yearly delivery in its postal districts of 298,000,000 letters Eight hundred and fifty trains pass Clapham Junction every day, and the Transportation (underground) Railroad runs 1211 trains every day. The Lon don Qnnibns Company have over 700 'buses, which carry 56,000,000 passen gers annually. It is more dangerous to walk the streets of London than to travel by railroad or to cross the Atlan tic from New Orleans to Liverpool. Last year 130 persons wsre killed and 2600 injured by vehicles in tbe streets. There are in London 15,009 police, 15,000 cabmen, 15,000 persons connect ed with tbe pestoffice. The cost of gas for lighting London annually is $3,000, 000. London haa 400 daily and weekly newspapers. Last year there were nearly 600 fires. The ancient and fa mous City of London was first founded by Brute, the Trojan, in the year of tbe world, 2832, so that since the first building it is 3006 years old. The drainage system of London is superb, and the death rate very low. Democrats saw "various channels in which to make themselves useful on election day. GRAND RATIFICATION. The Democrats of Lion and adjoin ing counties will boM a grand ratifi cation meeting In Albany, Friday evening, Nov. 21st This will be the most magnificent and Imposing demonstration ever hold In Linn eouotv. Let evsry precinct send a full, large delegation. One feature of the demon stration will bs a procession on horse beck. Let every Democrat who can some on horns back, so as to take a plaoe In the horseback procession. All who endorse tbe election of Cleveland and Hendricks are invited to attend. IffTBBSAl ItfUII B EfOBT. The annual report of Hon. Walter Cvans,Oommissionsr of Internal revenue foe the fiscal year ended June 30, 1884, has been submitted to tbe Secretary of tbe Treasury. Total receipts, lrom el' : w m w m sources, from internal revenue taxation tor the year, $121,590,039, at compared with $144 553,845 for the year 1883, $146,523,273 for the yeer 1882, snd $135,229,912 (or the year 1881. It Is estimated that $116,009,000 will be collected tbe present fiscal year. Pay ment ef tax on a large production of spirit in 181 is e material factor in collections during tbe past yeer. The Ommissiener says tbe falling off antic ipated tbe present yeer will follow from tbe diminished quantity of bourbon and rye whiskies produced in 1882,on which it will mature during tbe current fiscal year. tsn Bjeavmra Mj-r Von derGolts,e German war rior of tbe Ton Molrke kind, haa re cently written a book on tbe necessity of war and large armaments. "The control of the world' he says, ' cannot be required save by war aod can only bs maintained by war. The time of cabinet wars is past. It ia all very fine to talk of disarming and preventing bloodshed, but that is an error which should be corrected- In the domain of war the most dangerous errors are those which come Irom the kindneee of the heart. Those who employ force must use it without regard to ooneeqoeuoee, without a thought of the blood that is shed." This ia tbe Moltke doctrine ; the doctrine which built up tbe bouse of Hehensollern, which to-day rests on a pedestal of gross injustice, human blood anft the spoils ef war; It is, too, tbe effectuation of this relentless doe trine, which Lea made all Europe arm, until Germany eaa call 6,000,000 sol diers ia the field in the event of war, aod Russia can bring out 13,000,000. That is tbe paper strength of these gov e assents, but it Is no exaggeration ee to material. Going down tbe street last Wednes day we saw a very dilapadsted, dirty lead colored object lying in tbe street at which a team of horses were very much frightened. We weot up to the object and saw that H waa a Blaine hat whose owner bad been 'casting anchor to the windward" and seek ing "channels in which he might mske himself useful," but having heard the election returns he conclu ded lo "born It" It is a matter worthy of particular note, that tbe very large vote which Mr. Cleveland received In Massachus etts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Indiana and several other northern and northwes tern states, despite the large Irish de fection from the democratic party ,1 due to tbe Influence and support of the pro tea tan t clergy who in good conscience could not support Mr. Blaine In view of his very questiona ble record. A vigorous foreign policy and an aggressive campaign bring their Jus reward. Oh! no, Harper's Weekly has no In flnence.
