Of

rfir.lDtufivts. compritiiut:
b .!- of
gone of the groaUl statesmen and pop
ular public men, only one, James K.
V.'lk, of Term s?ee, beramo paesident of
the I nitoil iSt.-tit-s. The Ptiilailelphia
Knllftin draws from this the lesson that
'the personal antagonisms which the
p!:'p engenders will leave Mr. Ileed
weaker next spring than he is to-day as
a presidential possibility."
I atkr returns indicate the election of
Wells, Republican candidate for govern
or over Caine I Win era t, by 1,000 to
l,tiO majority in Utah. Roberts, Dem
ocrat, cauduiale for congress, is proba
bly elected over Allen, Republican, by
."oij majority. Democrats elect district
judges. alt Lake City election g'3 to
the Republicans by decreased majori
ti. s. The legislature will be safely Re
publican, which insures two United
SuiUs senators for the party.
Official returns will show the elec
tion of John M. Railey, Democrat, for
president judge, by about l,2iM) majori
ty in the Huntingdon Miillin district.
He has carried Miillin county by 700,
and Huntingdon county will give him
at least 5H. Ijist year Hastings carried
Huntingdon county by over 2,tKH.
The defeat of Williamson, Republican,
has been crushing. He carried but few
of the fifty nine districts in the county.
David Wilson Democrat, is elected sher
iff over T. I. C Ripple by several hun
dred. I.ATFR and more complete returns
have added materially to tiie earlier re
turns in the vote for Smith, Democrat,
fr superior court judge, particularly in
the anthracite coal counties, where
mith gets a remarkably large vote over
that of the other Democratic candidates
for suierior court judge. These later
returns now leave it doubtful whether
Yerkes or Smith will be the minority
representative on the superior court
U'tit li, with the prospect that the re
turns from the missing counties will
show that Smith has the larger vote of
the two. The other Iemocratic candi
dates run considerably behind YerkeS
ai.d Smith.
Thk new Carnegie library, donated to
the city of Pittsburg by the noted iron
king, was formally dedicated on Wed-ner-day
uight. Addresses were made by
Andrew Carnegie, Uovernor Hastings
and other distinguished gentlemen.
W. N. Frew, president of the board of
trustees, says that Mr. Carnegie intends
increasing his gift by auothi r $l,0tx,
OOO for the establishment of a fund for
the purchase of works for the art gallery.
He said that this would furnish a year
ly income of SoO.UW for that purpose.
This last donation will bring the sum of
Mr. Carnegie's gifts to the population
of the Ci renter Pittsburg to the splendid
total of $5,0(0,W0.
This week's American Agriculturist has
a valuable article on the potato crop of
the country for 18'.'5. It seems that
this year's yield i something phenom
enal no other year approaching its
magnificent total. The crop measures
up over 2S'2,lHJO,t00 bushels, against
only 13.000,000 last year.
The Pacific coast is the only region
where the crop shows a falling off,
while the Empire state largely takes the
lead with over -10,500,000 bushels,
against 2S,5OO,0iH bushels last year.
The percentage of increase is none the
less marked in Pennsylvania, Michigan,
Illiuois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri,
Kansas, and indeed, everywhere in the
Central and Western states.
Canada is no exception to the rule of a
bountiful crop, the one 1S'.5 yield close
ly approximating 57.H0,000 bushels,
a material increase over last year's crop.
Peter P. mith. of cranton, who is
the successful Democrat elected on the
fsurior leueh one of the foremost liw
yers of the state was born at Honesdale,
Wayne county, June 2. 1831. He at
tended the public schools and later the
Honesdale academy, of which he is
graduate. The natural bent of his mind
leing toward the legal profession. He
entered uion the study of the law and
was admitted to the Wayne county
bar on May 7, 1S74. He immediately
took a commanding place among the
practioners at the liar, and in 1875 was
nominated and elected district attorney
of Wayne county. At the expiration of
bis term he was renominated, but de
clined iu order to give individual atten
tion to his rapidity increasing private
practice in Wayne and adjoining cojD
ties.
Eight years asro Mr. Smith moved to
the ciiy of Scrantou, where he has
large practice, and has been engaged in
some of the most important cases aris
ing in the courts. He was appointed
additional law judge by governor Patti
toa in Decern ter. lSt'2, to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of Jude Con
Dolly, and discharged the duties of the
ollie with such distinguished ability
and impartionality as to earn the high
est commendations of members of the
bar, without regard to party affiliations
Judge Smith was nominated by th
Democrats to succeed himself, without
opposition, and Lis address of accept
ance, in which he discussed the fune
lions, resHnsibi!ities and privileges of
the judiciary, was one of the most dig
nilled and solidary expositions of the
subject to be found. He received by
far the largest vote ever cast for a Demo
cratic candidate for judge in Lackawan
na county, but was defeated by a very
narrow margin, notwithstanding the
jjreat tidal wave of Republicanism.
The Philadelphia Times of Wedues,
day morning gives the following edito
rial summary of the result of the elec
tion. The Republicans had a political pic-ni-
yesterday with only the Democratic
victory in .Mississippi to mar me .m
pleteness of their triumph. The elec
tions were simply a repetition of the
Democratic siiimp of last year, differing
only in degree.
In Mhss tchusett-s the Republicans
have swept the state by about their usual
majori'y. There was a feeble effort
made by the A. P. A.'s to defeat the
Republican candidate for governor, but
he rallied to his support the entire inde-
denpent vote of the state, and seems to
have gained from that element-quite
equal to his loss.
In New York Tammany has carried
the city by a comparatively small ma
jority, but st is unite large enough to
show that Tammany is again on top,
and that the disjointed reform elements
of the citv have broken in pieces. The
state is Republican by fully half the ma
jority of last year and probably more,
carrying both branches of the legisla
ture.
The Republicans hold New Jersey by
a majority of probably one fourth of
that received last year on the congress
ional vote, but it is large enough to give
them possession of every department of
authority in the state, aud to anchor
New Jersey as a more than probable lie
publican state next year. When so ex
cellent a can Jidate as Chancellor McOill
can le defeated ly a large majority in
a square fight, it means that the Dem.
ocrats of New Jersey have hopelessly lost
their grip and might as well go into Ii
quidation.
Maryland gives a sweeping revolution
in favor of the Republicans. They have
carried both the city of Baltimore, elect-
ng their entire ticket, and also the state
by a large majority, with the legislature
that is to elect a United States Senator.
It seems to be an utter overthrow of the
Gorman power.
In Ohio the Republicans have carried
the entire state ticket and both branches
of the legislature, by even more than
the normal majority of the party. Their
majority on the state ticket is probably
puite one-half of the phenomenal ma
jority of last yenr.
In Iowa the Republcans swept the
state. Of course the success of th 3 en-
lire state ticket was conceded on all sides,
ind the only dispute was as to the ma-
ority. It is now quite large enough to
how that the Democratic organization
f the state is pretty well retired from
business.
Even Kentucky is included in the
general Republican hurricane. The
ntire state ticket seems to
e elected by majorities ranging from
,000 to 15,000, but the legislature is
n doubt. This is the first triumuh the
iepublicans of Kentucky have ever
achieved since the organization of the
iepublican party.
Nebraska, a strong Republican state.
was naturally carried largely by the Re
ubticans, as the Democrats divided
sijuarely on the silver issue, and had two
ickets in the tield.
As the first telegraphic Hashes of
lection returns are succeeded by actual
gures, says the Philadelphia liecw-d, it
: - i . I . t . . i . , ,
is maue c iear inai me backward swing
of the political pendulum has begun.
The phenomenal Republican victory of
18'.4 marked the topmost limit of re-
iction. This year, although the Demo
crats remain dispirited, benumbed and
inactive, the Kepublirans show no ad
ded capability of offense. Their ma
jorities have been reduced. Where the
Democrats have leen beaten in Demo
cratic states as a rule they have not de
served to be victorious. The defeat in
iventucky of the free silver candidate
or governor is of more worth to the
Democratic party than would have been
an unuesirntiie victory mvnW- r.
reputation of an honest money platform
In Maryland, New Jersey and New York
the party could not save iUelf from the
consequences of past mistakes and mis
conduct and from the burden of a dis
dredited leadership by taking refuge be-
ninu me names of reputable men who
were put forward as candidates.
ine lesson of the election in Pennsyl
vania, Ohio, New York, New Jersey,
.Maryland and Kentucky is of one tenor
No party can govern the country that i;
is
not true to itself. The Democracy can
Only maintain the confidence of the peo
pie by putting aside the huckstering pro
fessional leadership with which the party
has been cursed, and which has turned
its past triumphs into defeats.
TV. . it: ... .
nc ncpuumau victories oi tnis year
where they have not been the outcome
of revolt against a demoralizing Demo
cratic leadership, have been the fruits of
apathetic discouragement. The Demo
crats have simply laid down and let
th'ir political opponents walk over them
Eor this state of things the remedy is
reorganization, and a leadership that
will have both head and heart in it
1 he movement in this direction cannot
liegin a day too soon.
One of the most noteworthy events in
the recent history of Canada is the for
mation of a new political party, under
the uncompromising title of the Iude
pendence of Canada Club. The plat
form declares that "the Dominion has
arrived at such a stage of growth and
development as to be able to maintain
herself as an independent nation
lhis movement is the germ of what
6eems to political thinkers such, for
instance, as Mr. Rryce to be the ult
mate destiuy of Canada- There can cer
tainly be little doubt that Canada's nex
constitutional step, will be to secure po
htical independence of Great Britain
Once free fiom Britannia's apron
strings, and with a federal instead of
confederate form of government, Caua
da would pioiiiptly realize the value and
need of sisterhood with the United
Slates.
There is not much comfort for Dem
ocrats in the election news.
Washington Letter.
Washington, D. C, Nov , 1, 1805.
President Cleveland has, in accordance
with his usual custom, moved from the
White House out to his suburban resi
dence, iu order to e able to put in more
time upon his message to congress than
iie could do when liatile to a. most con
stant iuterruotions from callers whom
he wotid not care to d-c;itie seeing
l iit-se he H entirely free from at his su
burban residence, as no one goes there
to call up'jn him, unless sp.jci.Uiy invi
ted. While not stated as a certainty.
there are reasons for the tie.ief that i.is
annual message to congress will not deal
with the diplomatic controversy with
England over the application of the
Monroe doctrine iu Yenzuela, further
that td say that the whole subject will be
fully treated in a special message winch
will follow the annual message and be
aceompauied by the diplomatic corre
spondence. The president and every
memlier of his cabinet are well pleased
with the present status of this Yenzuela
matter, at d very conhden: that they will
tie still better pleased a little later. A
diplomatic victory is preferable to one
achieved by the use of powder and ball.
in some cat. And this is one of the
cases.
If proof were needed that the real pur
nose of the oubhc meet ine held last
night, for the avowed purpose of ex

tion and make Republican partisan

chunks bv the names of those who con
trolled the meeting, made the speeches
and wrote the resolutions adopted. Ev
ery man of them whs a Republican.
The presiding otlicer was the notorious
"corporal" Tanner; the writer of the
resolutions was Dr. Rankin, president
of the Howard University, the negro col
lege which is pirtly maintained at pub
lic expense, and the only woman speak
er was Mrs. John A. Logan.
Judge Ixchren, Commissioner of pen
sions, lias a paragraph in his annual re
port headed "Patriotism and Pensions,"
in which he says those whs fought the
battles of the war were not moved by
mercenary considerations, and unless
actually disabled did not show the haste
iu applying for pensions manifested by
those who enlisted near the close of the
war for large bounties, and did little ac
tual service, and who are now the nois
iest in clamoring for more pensions.
As compared with this latter class the
real soldiers of the war have been modest
in preferring claims for pensions."
The figures in the report are interesting.
June oOtu, 1S'J4, there were on the rolls
(.)ti'.), 544 pensioners; during the year
following 3'J,2S5 new names were added
and 4,205 names which had been
dropped were restored. There were 27,-
Slb deaths, and li,oio names were
ropped for other causes, making the
net increase of th - total number of pen.

for the next fiscal year is $140,000,000
Ex-Congressman Uynum, of Ind., is
ine of the few men who regards Mr.
Harrison's chances for the Republican
nomination as beiug ahead of either
those of Reed, McKinley oi Allison.
He says Mr. Harrisoa is stronger with
his party in Indiana than ever liefore
and that the Indiana Republicans are
going to get him nominated, if such a
thing is possible. Speaking of the Dem
ocratic nomination- Mr. Bvnum said:
'On the Democratic side there is much
talk in favor of Col. Morrison, and he
has many friauds iu all part- of the
country. My opinion is that eventual
ly Democratic sentiment will center on
Secretary Carlisle. He is well liked in
the North and East, and in the South
his nomination wouhl create tiemeud
cms enthusiasm."
Representative Gorman of 111., who
has been on the' stump in Keutucky,
Maryland and New Jersey, arrived in
Washington this week. He says he

Secretary Olney has received a copy of
the proceedings of the French court
martial which sentenced the negro Wal
ler, who is a Ex U. S. Consul, to twenty
years imprisonment under the charge of
having betrayed rrench military move
ments iu Madagascar and the wife of
the imprisoned man has given the sec
retary all the information in her posses
sion, documentary and otherwise.
It cannot be stated what Mr. Olney
thinks of the case, but others who have
had access to the information regard
the outlook for Waller as a bad one, and
say that the case has leen misrepresen
ted for political effect by cerlaiu Repuh

Belleville, N. J., Nov. 5. A sneak
thief received a warm reception at the
hands of Mrs. Daniel Neely, of Mill
street, yesterday morning. Alout
o'clock a mau entered the yard and,
going to the back door of the house,
tried it. riuding it locked the stranger
went over to a clothesline aud taking
suit of clothes, which had lieen put out
for an airing, went into an ou( house.
Mrs Neely hearing the noise at the back
door, looked out of the window in time
to see the man disappear. At the same
time Mrs. Neely discovered that the suit
of clothes, which was owned by one of
her boaders, had also disappeared.
Judging that the mau had taken the
suit of clothes, Mrs. Neely armed her
self with a large club and took up a po
si'.ion at the door of the outhouse
When the man came out she demanded
that he return the clothes. The stran
ger, who was over six feet in height and
built proportionately, denied the theft
His bulky form, however, showed that
he had tucked the stolen articles under
hi3 coat, Prodding him with the end
of the club, Mrs. Neely compelled the
man to give up the stolen suit and, af
ter beating the thief unmercifully with
the club, while her neighbors nrged her
on, she allowed him to go limping from
the yard.
According to theChambersburg Spirit,
Philadelphia is a bad horse market a
present. One dealer from Franklin
county took a car load of horses down
last week and one of the horses that he
paid $40 for and freight, sold for $30
Other dealers who weie in the market
did not fare any better than did Mr
Zullinger. He 6aw a fine pair of driw
ing horses, well matched, five years old
and sound all over, sold for $t'i2 for the
pair. A bay horse five years old, sound
and tine appearing, guaranteed to go in
less than three minutes, to be returned
after a month's trial if not satisfactory,
went for $75. Prices for heavy work
horses were very little letter. It is safe
to say that no horses will be shipped to
Philadelphia from this section for some
time.

An Kxcitiug Deer Hunt.
John G. Simpson and William Carnes,
of Philadelphia, had an exciting deer
hunt in Pike couuty last Thursday, in
which Mr. Carnes came near losing his
life. They had secured the services ot
Peter Mayer, the well known guide,
who had placed thm on the Woodtown
runway near two or three runways lead
ing to Walker Pond, in Shohola town
ship. Mayer left them there to drive in
the game. An hour's wait brought a
big buck bounding up the Bald Hill run
way. When opposite Mr. Carnes he
fired a charge of buckshot which
brought the deer partially down. Mr.
Simpson followed with a ball from his
rille and the deer fell over on its side.
Both meu came from cover with knives
n hand to cut the animal's throat.
The tiuck, badly wounded, jumped to
ts feet, and, catching Mr. Simpson with
ts antlers, tossed him over a boulder,
nd then attacked Mr. Carnes, striking
him with its hoofs and felling him to
the ground. The infuriated beast pawed
the prostrate man on his breast and
inns, lunicting severe injuries. He
would probably have lieen killed had
not Mr. Mayer arrived, who sent a ball
nto the heart of the buck. It weighed
240 pounds dressed.

isseiled his lielief that Fitzsiminons was

brings confirmation of the news of

Theodore Durrant, the murderer of
Blanche Lamont, in San Francisco, was
found guilty by the jury Friday afternoon.
The jury was out twenty-eight minutes.
The verdict was received with a shout of
applause from the auditors who packed
the court room. Now that Durrant has
been convicted of the murder of Blanche
Lament, in San Francisco, it Is to be
hoped that there will be a speedy execution
of the law in the punishment of the crimi
nal. The jury, after listening to the evi
dence for six weeks, were less than half an
hour in arriving at a verdict of guilty,
which Is evidence that the crime had been
clearly fastened upon Durraut, and there
should be no dallying with the case after
such a loug, fair aud impartial trial.
