CIUOCI.lt Washington Letter. Prom our rejjular Oorrwpondnt. Washington, Not. 9th, 1896. ' It will be noticed that the shrewdest democrat are not attempting to explain Bryan's defeat. "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof-" McKinley was elected because he got the mot votes, and no good can come of labored expla nations aa to why and how . This is a good time for democrats to follow the example of Uncle Remus' lox and lay low and cartfully watch the other fel lows .. Although McKinle) baa won, his supporters are far , from being united upon a single one of the questions must wheh be legislated upon, and whether he can secure such legislation as he desires from the next Congress is a question yet to be answered. Tbe con trol of the Senate is still in doubt, and notwithstanding tbe republican major ity in toe house, Speaker Keed'a per-' soual ambition may be counted upon to prevent inn oooy oeiog entirety at me beck and call of McKinley. ". There is nothing in the situation which calls tor any new expression of opinion on the part of the democratic party. Tbe party is thoroughly alive, as it has been from-the day of its birth and will continue to be as long as free and un trammeled opinion is allowed to exist in it is country, but in-as-muck aa it has . uat failed to elect either the president or a mojority of the bouse, it is not called upon to outline a policy. That is for McKinley and the republicans to do When they shall have done so will be time enough for the democratic party to decide what it will do. Meanwhile dem ocrats should join with their republican neighbors in setting as much benefit as possible out of the boom which the cap italista are pushing, and which it u hoped ill be aa permanent aa it Las been sudden. All of ns are in a posi tion to welcome prosperity, no matter from what source it may come, and he who refuses to do so because hia ideas have failed of indorsement at the polls stands in the position of the man who bit his nose off to spite bis face. N Senator Butler, chairman ot the pop -ul'st national committee, bas not im proved hia popularity with democrats by the language be makee use of in an addrees to the people, on the campaign. He starts out by asserting that "the people's party ia the only party that supported solidly and unitedly the great and vital issues represented in the can didacy of Mr Bryan." While technical ly tru, this is calculated to mislead . Be cloaea by making a prophecy, tbat the people's party will be the nucleus around which tbe patriotic hosts xauet and will gather to redeem a betrayed re public and to restore prosperity to an oppressed and outraged people. ' With out posing as a rival of Senator Butler in the prophetic field, I will venture to ear that hia prophecy will1 read very queer in the summer of 1900 when the . democratic party , nominate ita next presidential candidate. Senator Butler means well for himself but ia bis seal a ihia n.rnnnT eanif al nn t nf demo cratic defeat he baa overdone the thing and done himself more barm than good. ' Bryan's defeat i nothing for him to 26,00 votes divided among nine states, and varying from 101 votes ia the loweet to 11.000 in the highest, would have given the electoral votes of 9 additional states, a total of 60 to Bryan, and would have elected him with, three votes to spared -When some over jubilant Mo ITinlAvita ffafa (aa chnnt lha etlaoMl overwhelming nature of the McKinley landslide, jaat call his attention to these acta. How They Were Fooled. We clip the following from the col umui of the Oregonian of tbe 12lh lust. quoted by it with' approval from tbe New xork Evening Pear. It is a hard lick on such as Senator Mitchell and thoeelike him who held out the delu sive hope of 'International Eimetalum.'' The Oregonian will not cease its agita tion of the question-ani here js the ar- - tide in full : ' "A conversation of anr reporter with Mr Hanna yesterday, which ia. confirmed by the report of the Sun, makes him say tbat 'the farmers and laborers in the Western cities' were won over by ex plaining to them that we stood 00 tbe ; St Louis platform, which advocates bi metansm under an international agree ment, and tbat we are not gold mono metalista.' Now the StLouu platform waa diaan btfore the Bryan platform and it is a safe aseumptioa that if itbadf been drawn after the Bryan platform, this passage - would either have been omitted or materially altered. Nothing bas done more to bring us to our present pass than tbe persistant maintenance of tbe belief that there is eoing to be an in ternational conference at which Europe an nations -will agree with us to estab lish and maintain a double standard. There is not the smallest reason to ex. pect any such , thing. ; Fancy such an agreement with Spain, Italy, Turkey f Bossia, Greece, amI Austria! - Even it it were entered into, it would be useless unless it included every country in the wot Id with which these nation badeom--mercial relations or communication! But there ia not the emalleat likelihood tbat any country would enter into it which was not in financial diflSunki'. More over, if f in:h an agreement were entered into. ih-T tii no probability that it would be oberv-l wl.en there would be large profit in breaking it. The last and fine o'ljectiou ia tbat telling people any com muJity can ttekpt above it jiarWet val ue by treaty is Biyanjam pnre and sim ple, and naturally leads farmers and laborers 10 aak why it cannot be kept above par also by : statute. Finally it would be the begiuning of unnumbered woes tor mankind if civilized govern ments undertook to substitute artificial treaty money for gold and silver at theif bullion value. We could not be sure that any popular government would stick to such an absurdity. The people would speedily break away from it, and where ehcu d we be then? Consequent ly it thirt 'international agreement' talk be fcrpt np, and tue public is kept in expectation of eeiiig 'England brought to her knees,' we ebah have no sound .financial legislation this winter.. ' We shall have only inoe compromises and uiakeetiiics The only wy out ot thia uiudJle, aud tj-.e only way to prevent a reappearauce 01 Bryaniein four years hence, is to stop sucn talk, to Day we are a muuouieUilic nation with aguid stand . ard, and do nt care who knows it, and that we onlyjose silver foi ciiiall tliatite."

What foolishness to talk that way. It will be a matter of supply and demand, and the Statesman knows it. The first thing the McKinley adminis tration will do will be to provide suffi cient revenue to run the government with, without issuing bonds. Newport News. What the McKinley government ought to do to help prosperity would be to reduce the expenses, quit the present extravagance.- The revenue is sufficient and-every intelligent man knows it. Now that the World helped to defeat the democrats it is coming to our aid and gives tbe following advice: The de feated presidential candidate and the democrats who have voted for him will act wisely in cultivating for a while the twin virtues of silence and patience. Wait for the republican blunders and mistakes. They are sure to come! Are not 600 speeches in four months enough for one man T Have we not bad enough of appeals and proclamations, addressee, outcries, boasta and buncombe T There are other elections coming next year, and still more in 1S9S.

Are laws passed for tbe pro tection of f ir trade to be permanently nullified in the interests of monopoly? What doss Mr. McKinley think about it? ' ; The New York World fiura it out thia way : "It ia a remarkable and inter esting fact, and one full of encourage ment for democrats if they will but beed its lessons, tbat the presidency ba al ternated between tbe two parties with uninterrupted regularity for the past wentr-four years. Neither party baa kept the Presidency for two succeseira terms. In 1876 Tildeu was elected by the democrats, thouxb r.e waa counted out. In 138) Garfield waa elected orer Hancock by a majority of 59 in the Elec toral College. Ia 1S81 Cleveland defeat ed Blaine by 37 majority, la ISS3 Har rison defeated Cleveland by 65. Ia 1S92 Cleveland again prevailed over Harrison and Wearer of 110- And this year Mc Kinley wins over Bryan by a majority of about HQ. Tbe awing of the pendu lum baa thus been regular, , back and forth, every four years. It will be tbe democratic turn again in 1900- They can win then if they are not political lunatics. The following from tile Age of Stee published before election now that elec tion is orer will be read with interest. It is spier at least : Bryan may be elected in November (but probahlr be will not.) But if be is: """-. The world will not stop in its move ment. It will continue to go round and round, like the w nee la in- some street orator's bead, only In a more regular and orderly manner.

' : A great many men who voted for Mr McKinley on account ol the money ques tion do not favor McKinley ism. Tbe future will demonstrate this fact.

The men who voted for Bryan are aa a claas bard working industrious citizens, tbe producing class, and tbey should reeent such contempti ble language as the following from tbe Oregonian ot Nor. 14: "The rote for Bryan waa mustered by scraping togeth er all the element of dishonesty and dis content in the country, by allying repu diation with anarchy, social revolution with political insurrection, riot and arson with stealing and cheating, and binding them all together with tbe ce ment of political demagogy. It cannot spare a sicgle element without irrepara ble Iocs, since it contains all tbe un worthy elements now, and can hope lo gain none of tbe better."

Near tbe close of the second half, Donnelly broke through the line and, in fnll view of 3,0(0 spectators, struck Stuart full in tbe face, knocking him almost senseless and sending two teeth down hia throat. After The Battle. ; When the news of Mckinley' election waa r.-ceived by William i. Bryan, tbe defeated candidate, at bis h"me in Lincoln, Nebraska, ore of tbe news paper correspondents present stood up and took Mr. Bryan by tbe hand, saying r "I think it ia better so, Mr. Bryan; it must be a g eat relief to you." His keen hazel eyes flashed, writes Jamea Creelman to the Work, tbe atrong face broke into a smile." "Yes,' said Mr. Bryan slowly, "I regard it in some respects as fortunate that I was not elected, considering the fact tbat for four years I would have been confronted by a gold congress. No free silver bill would bare been passed. My bands would hare be tied.'' . Then husband aud wife sat -doa u at the little desk whore for so many years they bare -workd out - iht-ir plan-!.
