The Grafiers Crushed by the Greatest
Defeat Ever Known in this State.
REFORM WINS IN PHILADELPHIA,
Centre County Stands by Her Democ-
racy.
The WATCHMAN does uot pretend to
claim the election of William H. Berry as |
a Demecratic victory alone, hecause it was
not. His maguificens majority was rolled
up by the voters of Pennsylvania who reo-
oguized the time as opportune to turn
down the corrupt gang of men who posed as
the Republican pasty and elect a man
who, is is well known, will run the
office of theState Treasurer on the same
business like principles thas bas made him
a success in private life. :
Baus aside from the good result of Berry’s
election the wave of reform which swept
like a whirlwind over the State had good
results ia Dewmooratio vic.ores iu vari-
ous counties while in almost every
county there , were goed Democratic
gains. In Berks county the Democrats ie-
elected Judge James N. Ermentrout by a
large majority; iu Montour county Blee
was elecred associate judge; York county
elected Nevin M. Wanner judge as well as
the eusire Democrat ticker; Hyde was
elected associate judge in Eik county with
the full county sicker; W. Rush Gillan was
elected judge in Fianklin county by a
majority ot 824 over his Republican op-
ponent; Ingram, Democrat, was elected
judge in Greene county, David Cameron in
Tioga, P. M. Dano in Schuylkill, and R.
8. Hols in Beaver. The Repub icans elected
judges in Allegheny, Venango, Washing-
ton, Westmorelavd and Jeff :rson coanties
and two in Philadelphia. Oa the various
ecuuty tickets throughout the State the
Dem: cra:s made large gains,
Berry's Pluraltty is Over 85,000.
Upheaval was th= Greatest -in Many Years in
Keystone Commonwealth.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 8.—Complete re-
turos fiom sixty-one of the rixty seven
counties in Pennsylvania give Berry, Dem-
ocras, for State Tteasurer, a pluralisy over
Plammer; Repuablican,of 81,026 votes. The
counties yes to be heard fiom are Arm-
strong, Chester, Crawford, Northampton,
Susquehanna and Perrv. Armstrong and
Su-quehavna give estimared plaralities for
Plammer of 1300, while the estimated pla:
ralisies for Berry in Chester, Ciaw ford,
Northampton and Perry are 5,525 Basing
the computation on these estimates, Berry's
apparent plurality in the Sate is 85 251.
The vote for Superior cours has nos yet
been comput:d in many counties, but in
nearly every R-publican county she three
Republican judges 1an far abead of Plum-
mer. \
The Citv party’s plurality in Philadel
phia is 43 333 for sheriff, and Berry carried
the city by over 36,000 plurality. The up-

Nos the leasy 1emarkable of the results
yesterday was the overthrow of the Repub-
hiean organization in Omo and in Cingin-
pati. For the former the country was not
unprepared. Tie temperance question,
which was only indirectly involved, bioke
party lines in both directions; bus apars
from this there wa« a geveral resentment as
the acs of the Republican leaders in abol-
ishing the spring elections so that they
could use the national party name with
greater effect in local contests, This 1n-
creased the power of she machine and was
a blow to the independent voters. They
can candidate for Governor.
For the result in Cincinnati the country
Was not prepared, and George B. Cox, the
R-publican bows of thas city, 18 probably
the most astonished wan in the couniry.
There was scarcely a thought of breaking
the power of the machine in Cincinnati un-
t1l two or three weeks ago, when Secretary
Tafs made his sperch in Akron, in the
course of which he denounced Cox and his
oiganization, and sad that if he was in
Cincinnati he would vote against the Reo
publican ticket. That speech, which was
of the atmos encouragement to the City
party here, heca se it wax an appeal fiom a
member of the Cabinet for independent vos-
ing, arroused 1remendous enthusiasm in
Cincinnati, and inj-oted vitality to she
movement to break the power of the boss,
The result has;been a heavy wajority against
Cox’s tiokes.
The people can govern themselves when
they are willing to take she trouble. It is
worth while to appeal to moral sentiments
and to the self-1espect of che community.
Partisanship is strong, indifference is a
heavy obstacle to move; but the people can
be aroused and, when they wish to, they
| can destroy the most imperious hoss and
| the moss unscrupulous machine.

learned their power Tuesday in several
places.

Two weeks ago in commenting on edi-
torials aroused by Dr. HARPER'S action in
appointing an «ficial newspaper agent for
‘Chicago University we claimed thas he wan
justified in desiring ““that only reliable
news «f his University should he publish.
ed.” In no profession is accuracy +o neces-
rary as in ours for it is the newspaper thas
largely creates public sentiment aid it is
therefore an obligation that the news it
publishes should he without error. Deliber-
‘ate inaccuracy cannot be too strongly con
demned but inadvertent errors occar for
which no editor is really responsible. The
patronage of a paper depends upon the news
it gives and as this is a legitimate business
we consider it our prerogative to publish
things that rRometimes do uot please a whole
reading public, but have always tried to
be just in exercising this prerogative.
Many times cooperation on the part of an
news
when he or she is approached hy a reporter,
would save the publication of what is often
an inaccurate happening. It is much bet-
ter to excend courteous treatment to a
newspaper representative and give him the
truth or frankly state why is is desirable to
suppress the facts for there are few of our
orafs—and they are not worthy the name—
who will not return with interest any
graciousness accorded.
It has always heen the aim of the
WATCHMAN to” give accurate news and.
when mistakes occur we want to correct
them and do this with pleasure when at-
tention is called to the error. In the issne of
Oct. 27 a listle notice appeared of an inno-

wiiter hunted up a policeman who gave

christinn brother in the work of the ministry
of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but the con-
gregation has lost a loving and faithful pas-
tor, who always was zealous in promoting
the kingdom of Christ amung men and faith
ful in the work committed to his charge. The
community has lost a valued citizen, who
was also a native of Centre county. As a
Ministerium the loss hasia special and pecul-
iar eigniticance, for it owes its existence to

the aid of his kindly courtesy and sympa-
thetic support. May God go with him where
ever he is all his days.
