WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOV. 9, 1881.
Election Indications.
The figures of the election in Pennsyl
vania seem te us te indicate the election
of the Democratic candidate, though the
Philadelphia morning newspapers declare
the opinion that Baily is elected by a
small plurality. The vote has been
light, and owing te the mild degree of
interest felt in the election, is but
meagrely reported. The light plurality
of Baily in Philadelphia ought te be
overcome in the state, where "Wolfe has
developed great strength. It appears
that he has received mere of the Demo
cratic vote than was exacted, but
there is no reason te suppose from
the returns that any very large part of
his vote came from Democrats, and
as Philadelphia has done better than
was feared for our ticket we have a fair
confidence licit it will finally appear te
have been elected.
If, however, Daily has been chosen it
will only he a reprieve of the Republican
bosses. The great vote polled by "Wolfe
in his hasty and impetuous canvass,
shows the feeling among Republicans te
be rue for revolt against ring rule. It
only needs leadership te make it effect
ive. In this canvass the majority of the
opponents of the machine were caught
napping and allowed themselves te be
bound hand and feet and te be dragged
along in the ring precession, because of
their timidity and their failure te realize
the .strength which a movement in rebel
lion would have. When Wolfe drew the
sword he was deserted by these who had
been acting with him and whose hearts
were with him, because they thought
him foolhardy. The anti-machine news
papers r.inj up the name of Daily, and
Wolfe was left te fight his battle with
but a corporal's guard around him.
Every man who voted for him has shown
his independence of the party leaders ;
and around this important nucleus will
gather all the timeserving reformers,
who are for reform whenever they see a
fair prospect of its success, and all of
that ether class who are reformers when
it pays. Wolfe heads a force which can
not coalesce with the Republican party
under its present leader, and which
must break them down before Republi
can union can come again.
In Xew Yerk no less than in Penn
sylvania is the Republican party
severed. The Democratic success iliere
is based upon the disaffection in
the ranks of its opponents. The can
didate upon the Republican ticket who
was particular obnoxious te the stalwart
elein.inL of the. parly has been cut se
many votes as te show clearly that his
defeat was premeditated and determined
by the clement of the party which
claims the president asoneef its leaders,
but which, under Garfield's reign, was
converted into a minority.
In Virginia, where the battle was
most fiercely fought, the Republican
parly disappeared as au organization,
but its voters were thrown by the influ
ence of the administration into the ranks
of tlie debt-sealers or " Readjustees."
This was done in part te buy the vole
of Malienc in the Senate, but mainly
en the ground that it was geed party
policy te defeat the regular Democratic
organization, which committed itself
te the honest payment of the state debt.
There was no honesty in the position of
the party with which the Republicans co
alesced, nor was there any honest impulse
te the coalition. The Republican lead
ers in the nation have been loudly pro
claiming their devotion le the preserva
tion of the credit of state and nation,
and have freely accused the Demo
cratic parly of a purpose le repudi
ate the national debt. It is there
fore patently dishonest in a Hepub.
licau administration te exhibit itself in
alliance with the debt repudiators or re
adjusters of Virginia. This attitude
Arthur took in removing the Republican
postmaster at Lynchburg and'.ippeinting
a Mahone 'en federate in his stead. Xe
indication could be mere distinct of the
principle, or lack of principle, that will
guide his administration. It is that same
dictate of present expediency which gov
erns every politician of low degree.
Tiic Republican party of the country
cannot be kept together under such con
duct. A parly won't fellow men for
ever, without minding the principles
they profess. The Republican voters have
been doing it for a geed while, but they
are new drifting apart. The party must
be reconstructed, and first must disinte
grate and give way te the Democracy.
It is net possible for it te avoid this fate.
It is one that meets old parties and all
old things in their sere and vellew leaf.
The Election in Lancaster.
In this city there is nothing particu
larly surprising in the result. Sir.
Baily has a small plurality, although
Wolfe polled 2(: votes, of which most,
of course, came from the Republican
side, albeit the odd CS are as likely as net
te have been cast by Democrats, from
all we can learn. The vote was light,
being scarcely two-thirds of a full poll.
In such a light turnout no result can
nave any significance, anu it win ue re
membered that in 1879, at a similar elec
tion, the Republicans carried the city by
nearly 500, while at the following mu
nicipal election, three months later, the
Democrats swept the town by ever SOO
majority, although the Republican nom
inee for mayor was heartily supported
by belh Republican daily newspapers
and recommended for election by hun
dreds of the leading citizens of his party.
General apathy prevailed te such an ex
tent yesterday that it was only a ques
tion of which party would mere
generally stay at home ; the Re
publicans, having the advantage
of the inside wards, improved it te get
their vote out with mere facility than
the Democracy, especially in the Second
ward, where their" best workers" were
busy and efficient. In the city generally
a great many Democrats were - away
from town and thought it scarcely worth
while te come home te vote in an off
year;" and in the Seventh and Eighth
wards, Democratic strongholds, the bad
weather and prevailing indifference pre
vented a large poll. The Democracy of
the Xinth fairly carry off the honors by
a handsome majority for Neble, and in
the Fifth the Republican majority is
fiercely cut down, largely by the aid of
Wolfe Republicans. These are the most
notable features of the result, which, as
we have said, en the whole, is significant
of nothing except that the lighter the
vote the mere uncertainand insignificant
is the outcome.
Ix some wards of the city yesterday
some Democrats, from whom at least a
better example might have been expect
ed, fell short of their duty. Notably the
Democratic street commissioner failed te
vote ; and the representative delegate
from this city te the Democratic state
convention who supported Mr. Xeble
there from the first failed te put in an
appearance at the pcMIs at all and lend
his support te the Democratic nominee.
Gentlemen who have been recipients of
the party's favor ewe it a different sort
of treatment from this. Likely their
votes would net have changed lhe re
sult, but they can have no share in the
credit of victory and must take a large
slice of the responsibility for defeat .
Tin: "Bloody Ninth" fought biavcly.
Jlikji: Livixosten does net appear te
have run ahead of his ticket, in the city
at least, as far as had been expected.
It cannot be said "Bill McMulIen did
it." His Fourth ward in Philadelphia
gave Neble S84 mujeiily a ve-y fair
showing in an off year.
Twe able Republican editors 'both
daily" voted in the Second ward' yester
day. It is a conundrum whether they
swelled Daily's majority.
In the Second ward, Win. Leamaii.
had one vote for judge. If he had
been
en the Republican ticket he could have
received the solid Democratic vote. It
was a Ijvcl-hcadcd man who voted for
William Lea man.
Tin: aggregate (Wolfe and liaily) Re
publican vote in the city is 2,0P,'.). The
average Republican vote for auditor,
which may be counted a fair test, is 2,031,
or only IS less. This docs net indicate a
very large Democratic vote for Wolfe.
Tin: election lcturus received l.i.-.t night
and early this morning will he found en
ear first page. They left nearly every
thing in doubt, and their estimates were
net much mere satisfactory than these
made the day before the election. The
latest telegraphic advices of te day will he
found en our third page.
Twe pathetic stories came from New
Yerk touching yesterday's election. One
is te the effect that the president did net
get home in liine te get registered and
henee lest his vole. According te the
ether, Grant and Conkling 'walked
through" young Aster's district in behalf
of his election te Congress and yet he was
beaten. This is coo utterly touching for
anything.
Thkui: is a great deal mere satisfaction
in the election of the Independent Demo
cratic county comissiencr, .'supoited by
decent people generally, in Philadelphia,
than would have ensued from the success
of either of the regular parly nominees,
both of whom were ready te cut each
ether, and trade off the state ticket te se
cure "their own election. Let all .such
rogues be (hummed te the rear.
Mr. Nema: is net without honor in his
own country. Despite the powerful op
position of Win. L. Scott, esq., and his
Democratic daily paper Mr. Neble claims
Erie by an unprecedented majority and
cuts down the Republican majority in the
county like fire runs thretqdt the stubble.
The only thing that seems te have oper
ated te his personal disadvantage any
where was the allegation that he had been
a Knew Nothing and that his first name
was Orange.
A KOMANTic episode in New Yerk fash
ionable life discloses a radical dilleience
of opinion between two of the most prom
inent city rectors respecting a clergyman's
privilege at the maniage altar. One holds
that he cannot marry a pair of levers when
a stern parent pleads the immaturity of
the bride, and only asks for a year's delay.
The ether considers it his beiiuden duty le
unite them in the holy bends when he has
examinencd the bridgroem's certificate of
character, and ascertained what a very ex
cellent reputation he bears.
Mere Treasury Scandals.
The investigation of the E vans-Hinds
scaudal iu the sixth auditor's office, some
details of which liavc been published, has
been taken up at the treasury depaitmcut.
The high connection of Miss Hinds and
the hitherto respectable character of Majer
Edward J. Evans have made the cxamina
tien of a private nature. It is known, how
ever, that Jehn E. Heeside, ticasury em em
pleyyee, testified under oath that
money was paid Majer Evans for
furnishing outside attorneys a list
of balances due postmasters, upon
which list claims were filed against the
government. Majer Manteu, a claim
agent, paid the money. It is claimed
that his list of balances is in the hand
writing of Evans and was gotten up with
the understanding that the attorney fees
should be paid te Manten and that Evans
was te bava one-half. In the woman
scrape J. J. Boyd testified as has been al
ready reported relative te the usb of Evans'
room. In addition it was stated that en
last Thursday when Miss Hinds came te
work every lady in the room get up, put
ou her things and went home. They re
fused te remain in the same room with
her. It is also 'in evidence that Tyner
took his sister-in-law te Europe, where
they were absent two or three months.
Her name was borne en the rolls and .she
received pay all the time, the same as
these who worked.
" Waste Paper. "
Frem July 1, 1878, te May 4, 1331,
waste paper and pasteboard of the treas
ury department were sold te the amount of
$3,092,00 ; during this period i:e deposit
was made in the treasury en account of
said sales ; but money received therefrem
was paid te the "custodian," who states
that he paid the cost of asserting out of
the proceeds, and kept the balance in 7tis,
aicaiting instructions as te icliat disposition
should be made of it. Very seen after this
fact was discovered by the committee of
examiners, the attention et the chief clerk
was called te the matter, and it was sug
gested that the money iu the bauds of the
"custodian" ought te be deposited in the
treasury without further delay. This
was net done, however, until after the as
sorters were paid for their services during
the month of May, 1881, when the sum of
$2,170,77, balance stated as en hand, was
deposited with the treasurer of the United
States.

politics for the next year or two and make
money. His friends say that ',' he is a first
rate business genius and, though net ex

aggicssiveness and conservatism which
puts him into the tight thing and brings
liitu out before he has gene tee far.

LOCAL JNTELLlliENCE.
THE ELECTION
IN TOWN AXDCIIU.NTKY.
A Light Vete unci ltciluccil K.-u:lic:ui
Itliijiirlty.
The election iu this city yesterday was
certainly one of the quietest and most un
eventful ever held. Gloomy weather brood
ed ever the town, and General Apathy
had full command of the .situation. A
few straggling poll committeemen and the
party committees had charge of the tickets
at the polling places, but there was au en
tire and highly creditable lack of the usual
large force of paid workers, beer and
whisky, and ether appliances te get out
the vote, and convert the doubtful.
Owing in some mcasure te this, and iu
larger degree te the prevailing indiffer
ence te the issues involved there was a
light vole, little interest, scarcely any dis dis
erdeiand a small nnjerity cither way was
apparent from the beginning of the poll.
The Wolfe organization did all it under
took te de iu the cUy, and though no de
monstration was made at the polls the
tickets were thoroughly distributed the
night befeie, and intelligent, independent
Republicans came te the-polls with them
"fixed" and firmly voted them, being
watched with suspicion and quietly cursed
by the Republican workers. A consider
able number of Democrats iu Lancaster
voted for Wolfe, among them Mr. Morti
mer Malene, of the Sixth waid, who tore
up the Democratic state ticket because lie
said Neble was an "Orange" man ; and
in the Second ward, Mr. Geerge Snyder,
late a Democratic worker, proclaimed
himself " an Independent voter" and de
monstrated it by voting for Wolfe and the
Republican county ticket. In the Fifth
ward the Wolfe vote was especially heavy.
The Republicans were active, most cspe
pccially iu the Second ward, and get out a
fairly full vote there, capturing the float fleat
ers. They felt somewhat exuberant ever
capturing the cily, but seeing hew light,
the vole was, admitted that the result had
no significance, and were a geed deal
crestfallen at Wolfe's big vote and Baily;;
small majority in the county.
The Democrats were generally apathetic
and waited in vain for their vote te come
out, apparently taking most interest in
tue iignt et tlie Jfepubhean factions. The
party lest several hundred votes by the
absence of members of it from the citv.
Complaint was made by the workers that
some prominent members of the jsirty
failed te take any interest in the election,
Street Commissioner Trewitz net going te
the polls and Slate Convention Delegate
A. .1. Dunlap being out of town.
The returns were awaited last night
with a goeil deal of interest by a large
number of people who had te go te bed
without getting any information except
Republican claims which th- figures did
net justify.
In the city "cncrallv iudiciai-v "
tickets were en hand for such Democrats
as desired te vote for Judge Livingston,
there being no Democratic candidate for
judge. A number of lawyers and some
ethers availed themselves of the onnei-lu-
nity, but net nearly se many as had been
expected, as Judge Livingston only runs
30 ahead of his party vote for auditor and
32 ahead of the joint vote of Baily and
Wolfe, Republican candidates for state
treasurer.
The Greenback and Temperance candi
dates for state treasurer were badly
" left " in this city. Jacksen, G., had 1
vote each in the First, Second and Thiid
waids, and 2 each in the Sixth, Seventh
and Ninth ; there was 1 Temperance vote
in the Second ward. In the Third ward
Chas. S. Wolfe had 3 votes for judge.
Throughout the cmu.ty there was a very
light poll. The Columbia Democracy
carry the banner, and lead the march with
a noble majority of ever a hundred for the
democratic ticket. Well done, brethren !
The Wolfe people did very well iu the
county and justified their own voles and
ether people's expectations. In Warwick,
Eden, Maytown, Earl, Rohrcrstewn, Mil
lcr.?ville, Salisbury, Sporting Hill and
Strnsbtinr boremrh esneeiallv the. fntlennn-
dents fought bravely and deserve credit.
In West Earl the Democrats seem te have
voted for Wolfe. Eden and Sporting Hill
take the cake, according te numbers, for
a decided Wolfe vote.
Light as the Democratic vote in the coun
ty was, the Republican majeritv is gr-at
ly cut down aud will hardlv reach -1,:J00
In his own town, Mt. Jey, the Democratic
daudidatc for commissioner ran 3'i ahead
ui iiiu nuiiu uckci. in Aiaytewn some
Cameren Democrats voted for Baily, and
will net he forgotten.
We print tables showing the vete, en
ail the nominations, in this city, by wards,
and the vote of the county, by districts
for Neble, Baily and Wolfe.
Tlie M'ajurity in the County.
Our table of returns from the districts
in this county is complete, except from
the four districts of Clay, Indiantown
Fulton and Little Britain. Without
these districts the vote of the county
stands: Baily, 9,3G2 ; Neble. 5,437;
Wolfe, 1,461. Of the places te be heard
from we estimate Clay 130 for
Baily, 40 for Neble, 5 for
Wolfe ; Fulton 190 for Baily, 100 for No Ne
ble. 10 for Wolfe; Indiantown 200 for
Baily, 23 for Neble, 10 for Wolfe ; Little
Britain 100 for Baily, 150 for Neble, 2 for
Wolfe. Should these estimates be veri
fied the total vete of the count v
would be Baily 10,002, Neble 3,732",
Wolfe 1,500. Baily's plurality, with there
four districts te hear from, is 3.923 ; we
opine that it will be about 4.330, and his
majority (ever Wolfe and Neble) about
