'& J t gaittf gtatfan. ASTORIA, OREGON: SATURDAY. .NOVEMBER 8. 1834 CLEVELAND PROBABLY ELECTED. Fob the first time in twenty-eight years the Democrats seem to have won in the quadrennial contest and Grover Cleveland is probably elected twenty-second president of the United States. Blaine carried on the fight against most tremendous odds. At tacked in front and rear, forsaken by thousands of his own party, cnt and hacked by powerful joumals,maligned and aspersed by equally powerful journals; his fight -was one long de fense against the most potent com bination of forces that ever opposed an American presidential candidate. His defeat is not a Democratic vic tory; his success could not have been termed a Eepublican triumph. . It would have been due to his own per sonal exertions. Two weeks after his nomination it was evident that the Republicans could have put up a more available party candidate; but his almost unanimous nomination had demonstrated that Blaine -was nearest the Republican ohoice of any candidate proposed at the Chicago convention. Blaine's defeat will cause the ex treme of exultation and regret Many who voted for him -will doubtless feel as bitter disappointment as he him self and those of his own party -who aided in his defeat will feel a fierce joy that is the natural outcome of the jealousy that conscious medioo rity always entertains toward ac knowledged ability. The campaign has been almost en tirely one of pocket interests. The result demonstrates that the Repub licans have lost the confidence of. the country. It is an expression of pop ular opinion that constitutes the will of the highest tribunal in the nation the people, and one that is fraught with the most tremendous conse quences to the country. "He serves his party best -who serves his country best," and whether the majority of the voters of this nation have best ..served the interests of the country by selecting the man they have is a ques tion that time alone can determine. In every state some important forms of suffrage can bo conferred on women by statute without change of constitution. During the past seventeen years the legislatures of Kansas, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan, Colorado, Nebraska and Oregon have voted to submit -woman suffrage constitutional amendments to the voters. In every case but one these amendments have either failed to carry a subsequent legislature or, when submitted, have been defeated at the polls. In Minnesota alone, where the amendment was limited to school suffrage, it was adopted. Meanwhile the legislatures of eleven states have enacted woman suffrage in school elections, and those of three territories have granted "women full suffrage, and those of three states Kansas, Mississippi and Arkansas have given woman suffrage on the temperance question by petition. Thus, within seventeen years, twenty one state legislatures have voted for some form of woman suffrage. "Men of Kochester," said "Webster on one occasion when visiting the Genessee valley, "I am glad to see your noble city. Gentlemen, I saw your falls, which I am told are one "hundred and fifty feet high. That is a very interesting fact. Gentlemen, Rome had her Caesar, her Scipio, her Brutus, but Kome in her proudest days never had a fall one hundred and fifty feet high! Gentlemen, Greece had her Pericles, her Demos thenes and her Socrates, but Greece in her palmiest days never had a wa terfall one hundred and fifty feet high. Men of Eochester go on. No people ever lost their liberties who had a waterfall one hundred and fifty feet high!" J A New Yoke dispatch on the day of election said: Ey a blunder in printing the Eepublican ballots, about four million were sent out with Ford electors on the back 1 the presidential ticket, which vitiates the ticket in this county, though that in dorsement is proper for every county in the state. The blunder was dis covered yesterday and the tickets were recalled, but it will cost the party one thousand votes. That blunder was a costly one to Blaine. MB Peobablt no one has reached a . higher altitude by balloon ascension than Prof. James Glaisher, who, with a professional aeronaut, made an ascension in England to the height of 37,000 feet, or seven miles. He be came insensible at the height of sue miles,-and his companion, who was so nearly frozen as to have lost the use of his limbs, was obliged to pull the rope of the eafety valve with big teeth to descend. Wb expected that the Oregonian would give us the "I told you so" with variations, but in yesterday's issue it sort of rubs it in. Let up! "What's the use of telling what every one knows. There were several hun dred thousand in the same -way of thinking. The fight is over. What's the use of holding a post mortem ex amination. Where is the Republican who is sorry that he voted for James G. Blaine? Great preparations are being made in Denmark and Norway to celebrate the bi-centenary of the birth of Ludvig Holberg, the father of the Danish stage on December 3d. It -will sooth the sorrow of defeated candidates next week to know that work has been resumed on the Wash ington monument Matob Babtlbtx, of San Francis co who was re-elected last Tuesday, started the first daily paper in Cali fornia in 1850. The ratio of representation in the house of representatives is one to 154,325. ' - i ii Dubino October 1,500 immigrants arrived in Oregon from the oast NEW TO-DAY. ar. o. READING UNDERTAKER, ASTORIA.
