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.

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.

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
