Daily Democrat. THE RESULT. Grover Cleveland is beaten, and, for the next four years the country will be again in the hands of those who well-nigh wreck ed it prior to democracy's triumph In 1S84. "What can be the reason," is the propound ed query from thousands of democratic mouths. It is verj apparent to my mind that David B. Hill and the split in the New York mayoralty contest, wherein votes were swapped to quite an extent.lost us the electoral vote of the empire state. It is over, the fiat of November 6th is now n portion of our history,wrong has triumph ed, and the money bags of a Morto.i have played well their part. Is the result enough to dishearten us or cause us to lose faith in the grand old party ? Xo. We are as firm as ever,our allegiance greater,for we know, full well, Grover Cleveland sacrificed a certainty of re-election for a principle, which the democratic party has urged as a neces sary requisite to our country's prosperity. The great masses of the people are not properly educated as regards the tariff as viewed by democrats, and we must do our duty from now on towards enlightening them. If Roger Q. Mills had been from Illinois and supported in his patriotic efforts by Scott of Pennsylvania and other demo crats from the East and West, Grover Cleveland would now realize that he '.s ltis own successor j but Mills is a Kcntuckian by birth, a U. S. Representative from Tex as, and was seconded by Southern Con gressmen, which the North interpreted to be a measure for Southern prosperity and Northern discomfiture. I thought and honestly believed that when Indiana's old war Governor, Oliver P. Morton, left this mundane sphere to accept a position under a ruler orthe other side.the waving of the 'bloody shut would forever cease. But I was mistaken. Fifer in the gubernatorial campaign of Illinois delighted to parade his silly ideas of "rebel lead," and.stranger still, this idiot found many who swore by him and by his persistent lying about negro killing and the like, won a seat which his very presence will disgrace. The old bat tle grounds have shifted. Many other states have shown themselves by their pop ular vote to be counted on as democratic In 1892. The North 6ays to the South.you must give up your solidity.the South replies in like ter ms. There would be no solid Sotit h, solid North.solid East or solid West, if these "blamed" fools would cease their war cries. These blatant cowards mount a rostrum and fiercely denounce the South, Such as that only the more firmly cements the Southern states. The war is over, a quarter of a century has nearly elapsed since the decree of Appomattox told the world that a great war had ceased and the Union preserved. An ex-rebel brigadier Is one of our Supreme Judges, and never has the South for an instant deserved this con tlnued maligning which Is constantly hurl ed at it. Let not prejudice exist. Let all lay buried, and whilst we can reverence and love those of our kindred who were participants in that sanguinary conflict, let our united efforts all tend toward our coun try's prosperity. Mr. Harrison is no doubt an efficient man and if he lets the Cataline of American politics severity alone, his ad ministration will be a fairly good one. He has our best wishes and our pen will never do him a known Injustice. The dispatches tell us that James G. Blaine, the magnetic schemer from Maine, will be State Secre tary. If so, then, what can we poor mor tals reasonably expect but a rule of ruin, To democratic readers, Blaine's history Is so well known that I will say no more con cerning the shrewdest political wire worker and embodiment of double-dealing the world has ever seen. Let it now be on record, that every "faber-pusher" in the democratic ranks from now on will, by voice and pen, so explain and simplify the mean Ing and purport of Revenue Reform, that no voter wilt have any plausible pretext for aiding the party whose motto of protec tlon Is the only stumbling block in the way of the United States being the greatest of Nations. On the 4th of next March Pres Ident Cleveland will turn over to his sue cessor a clean "set of books," and if Presi dent Harrison will only be guided by desire to be, In truth, a benefactor, he will be exceedingly cautious In his Cabinet se lection. Democracy will watch the new administration very closely, and every act not calculated to be for the public weal will be remembered in 1893. The democracy of this country have nothing to be asham ed of in their leader, Grover Cleveland He well fills the seat as the foremost dem ocrat in the land. His administration has been a pure one. His cabinet oDicers,each of them, efficient and hard workers, have left an indelible record as far-seeing, in telligent patriots. As we view the result, our heart is buoyed up when we know that 1891 .will see a most radical and everlast ingly complete change, for by then the people will know the difference between a war tariff and tariff sufficient to economic ally run the government. More anon, Albany, Nov. 19th, 1888. Yoiso Democracy. THE POPULAR VOTE. We have received the following from a "Subscriber,"at Street Home: "Please give In your valuable paper the actual vote of the people throughout the United States for Cleveland, Harrison and Fiskc. (Not the electoral vote,) Subscriber." This we will do as soon as the official re turns are all in. The official count of the several sta'.es Is made at different times some as late as January 1st . It seems rea. sonably certainly that the democrats will have from 50,000 to 100,000 votes niore than the republicans and that Fiske ha8 received from 365,000 to 295,000 votes. Boots and Shoes.

A clear test of the strength of civil ser vice reform under Cleveland and Harrison will be made in the case of the post office at Salem. O'Dell the present postmaster is a republican. He was appointed by Arthur and his time would have expired ithin a few weeks after the beginning of Cleveland's term. After Cleveland's elec tion and before he took his seat, O'Dell resigned and was reappointed for a term of four years. This was a mere scheme lengthen the lease of his office.
