One of the Republican papers, says
the Pittsburg W sees, in the western
local elections of Monday evidence that
the "Republican tide is still on " ot
to a very alarming extent. Michigan,
which last fall went Republican by l'Jo,
OOO. is now claimed for that party by
only Jo.ooo. In Ohio the results are of
a variable character, but as a whole
show sreat reductions in the Republican
majorities last vear. The capital city
Coiumbus. which the Republican.-swept
iu November, elects a Democratic may
or bv ,(HH plurality, and in Toledo a
Republican majority of J.fMNi has U-en
changed to a Democratic plurality for
mayor. The Republican majorities last
fall reached high tide, and owing to jie
culiar causes could not lie claimed as
anything like an endui iug test of party
Strength. Jugdiaiidled elections are not

the country ihat this is so. Large ma

For the first time women voted at the
hio elections for school otlicers. and
the novelty ran spasmodically over the
state, directed by exceptional conditions
in the cities and towns where the ladies
took au active part. In some places the
old parties nominated women for school
officers, and iu some cases the sex rallied
on tehalf of their co laUirers, and iu
others "knifed" them with vigor. We
see no objectiou to female suffrage as to
school otlicers, and it is a good idea wo
men should be represented on the
school boards. If the participation of
women iu the Ohio elections points
any moral, it is that the ladies arequick
to acquire the methods of working poli
ticians of the older parties. They gen
erally helped the sides on which their
husbautls, fathers and brothers were en
listed. In one of the towns the Repub
licans became alarmed at the prosjK-ct of
defeat, and at a late hour rallied aheir
female relatives and friends to the polls
to save their candidates, which they did,
although until this pressure was exerted
there was no indication of any desire on
the part of the ladies to vote. We fancy
that this incident fairly indicates how
female suffrage will work as to loth po
litical parties w hen it settles down to es
tablished ways. Those who enjoy the
spectacle of seeing huudreds of women
Hocking to the election places, excited
by the uovelty of a new thing and tak
ing an eager part in the strife of con
tending parties, doubtless enjoyed wo

One Jailer's Opinion
While on the way to Atlantic City on
Tuesday afternoon as the train was pass
ing through the suburbs of Camuen, N.
J., ex-Seaker of the Pennsylvania a
islature, John K. F'aunce, was shot in
the neck by a bullet from a rille fired by
a boy on the roadway. Mr. Faunce was
sittiug at the window of the car when
the bullet struck him. The train was
not stopped at the time, but at the
first station w here a stop was made, a
telegram was sent to Hammonton for a
physician to meet the train. At Ham
monton a doctor was in waiting and
came aboard the train and went on to
Atlantic City with it. He did rot at
tempt to remove the bullet from Mr.
Faunce 's neck, but the wound is not se
rious. John Richardson, aged fourteen
years: Gilbert Hulert, aged seventeen,
aud Robert Swain, aged sixteen, were ar
sested on the charge of having done the
shooting. Richardson admits firing the
shot that struck Mr. F'aunce, but said
that he aimed at the wheels of the car
as the train passed him and that his foot
slipped just as he pulled the trigger and
the barrel of the ritle was thrown upward
and the bullet went through the window
of the car.

Nothing shows more plainly how the
tide has turned than the returns made
by the national banks under the last
call, showing their condition on the fifth
of March; the deposits of bonds to take
out increased circulation, and the in
crease in applications for the organiza
tion of new national banks. The ua
tional bank returns show how large a
part of the money lying idle in the
banks a year ago has lieen withdrawn
into the channels of trade, while the
applications for new circulation aud new-
bank charters testify to the present and
the anticipated demands for money aud
for enlarged banking facilities"

Nothing remains to menace business in

At Rrunswick, Germany, United
States Consul Tingle has reported to the
state department the existence of a re
markable appetite for horse meat among
the people of his Consular district. The
demand for the meat greatly exceeds the

risen consequently from about $." or $10
a head to about toO. Since the German
government will not permit the people
to indulge their taste for American U ef,

Washington, April 1. It is said t
tlie Japanese Legation that the young
Japanese who shot Li Hung Chang will
probably lie sent to the mines of North
ern Japan to serve his life sentence.
The locality is much like Siberia, ami a
seutence there is dreadeil by the Japan
ese as little short of death. Whin the
Japanese summarily punished those w ho
attempted the life of the Russian Crown
Prince, it raised an agitation in the
Japanese Parliament, as the govern
ment was accused of crowding the trial
and not according to the usual rights of
defense, in the desire to make amends
to Russia. In the present case, the
speed of the trial is accounted for by the
fact that the offense is regarded as one
against the government of Japan, and
therefore treasonable.
Dr. Scriba's report on I.i Hung
Chang's wound is regarded by the Jap
anese Legation as assuring his recovery.
Scriba is one of four of Germany's
most distinguished surgeons who have
entered into the service of Japan.

place. Arriving they tound that the
smoke, was issuing from a fissure in the
rock, which was so hot they could not

pervaded the atmosphere, and occasion
