It is rather amusing to he a fellow mh tK.lit:Tilv doesn't know whether he is afoot or on horseback, criticise the con- j !nct of a canvass daring which he re mained dumb as an o; ster. On e by one every member of the Cabi net ' has been dismissed" by Democratic newspapers. The strange thing about it ia that no one oatsi Je of Democratic readers has heard of it. Os Friday last the Senate, now in ex tra session, adj -.urned until this (Wednes day 1 eveninj;, so that its members could go home and attend the ejections. A great many Cindidat, of both po litical parties, who smilingly "knew all about it" on Monday, will to-day appre ciate the situation described in the fol lowing little couplet : Tfierv vua y.nine lay from Nir, Viio rtic, i:h a smile. n h lict-r; Vi. n tii'V r'-inriM-d IP in Uif r:dr '1 Ik- vina Iwly tioioe.

The Pittsburgh full (Jnz-it of Tue-Jay has the following: 'Mr. Kooser at a late hour yesterday withdrew from the contest for juJ:e ia the Bedford-Somers-H district This was a commend able move in the interest of harmony and euix-ess, for certain defeat etared both him and Mr. Longeswker in the face.

Senatok Jt .-.V Las at last tired of the newspaper attacks on his personal hon esty and integrity. The outrageous at tempt made by Itemocratie leaders and newspjpers to involve him in the plun der of the Treasury by BarJsley was the last straw that broke the camel's Lack, and he has brought criminal and civil suits against the Pittsburgh W nd the EeaverS' ir. It is alleged, alr, that ac tions will be brought against Mr. Kerr, Chairman of the Ieiuocratic State Cotn rnittee, and other Democratic journals in the State who have loaned their columns to the publication and circulation of the cross t haigi s tgainst the Senator. The truth of the old a Luje, "hen a lawyer has himself for a client he has a fool to deal with," has again been veri fied in the matter of the will of the late Presidential candidate Samuel J. Tilden. Mr. Tilden was regarded as one of the ablest nd shrewdest lawyers in this country, yet after a lifetime passed in drawing legal papers for others, he wrote his own will so faultily worded that the Court of Appeals in New York has just decided that it is void. The amount in volved isover $5.00,U0!, and Mr. Tilden'a nephews will now receive the immense sum that be intended should go to the establishment of a pub ic library. Miss Kvma Connees, of Clark town ship, Inl., is a your.g woman of whom all gfxvd citizens of her State shouid be proud. She is the tacher of the dis trict school, and her patriotism is only e pialed by her pluck. A fine Tnited States flag was recent'y raided with ap- t propriate oeremor.it s over her school. Certain ewlly disp'xx-d and thoroughly "unreconstructed" perfors tore it down the next night. When they weretased with the lawless act they admitted that they had perpetrated it, and decLrcd j that they didn't propose to allow the national colors to float over the school- ! house again. P.at Miss Connere was a soldier's daughter and did not intend to see the fiag for which her father had fought dishonored. The dispatches aver that she procured a new flag, nailed it to the stalT with her own fair hands, and resolutely declare 1 that she proposed to keep it living during school boars, no matter what the hazzard to herself might be. The flag still waves ! Mvr,many men claiming to be f rouj of their American citizenship, voted on yesterday for Kngland instead of Ameri ca. They professed to believe and con stantly declared that the McKioley bill is not benefitting American industries, w hiie at the same time the English press is openly confessing that the measure is accomplishing all its friends claimed it would.

It was very evident that in a three-cornered conttrt the Ilepublicans, with two candidates in the field were overmatched, and to save the district Mr. Kooser magnanimously withdrew from the struggle. Those only who have been engaged in j-harp political contest?, with high hopes of pticees?, can appreciate the anioant of self-sacrifice required to thus prefer party to eelf With the unanimous endorsement of his own county, w ith its over helming Ce pub'.ican majority, and tl-e justness of its claim to the Domination, Mr. Kooser was perfectly justifiable in expecting a nomination and consequent election; but w hen it became apparent that unanimity coald Dot be secure! in the district, and that party defeat would fallow further IJereistence, he put aside self, retired from the field and commended his Re publican competitor to the support of Lis friends throughout the district.

THE LOCAL DEMOCRACY ROUTED. DISTRICT DEMOCRATS GIVE DAZZLE. Elections took place in eleven States yesterday, but only five were of special importance. Tennsylvania gives over - 50,000 majority for the head of the Re publican ticket, but Captain Morrison, for State Treasurer, runs a few thousand behind, owing to the fact that the (ran ger organization supported a mixed ticket composed of Gregg and Tilden. In Ohio McKinley s election is conceded by about "),000 majority. The Kepablicans con troll both branches of the Legislature, insuring Sherman's re-election. In Xew York Faasett sustains defeat, Flower's plurality being estimated at 25,000. In Massachusetts Russell ia estimated to have 4,000 plurality for Governor, but the rest of the Republican State ticket is elected. Retnrts from Iowa are con fused, but indicate the re-election of Boies, the Republicans electing the rest of the State ticket TEXXSYLYAXIA. Within three hoars after the polls had closed, all doubt was removed of the election cf Gregg and Morrison and the defeat of the proposition to hold a Con stitutional Convention. It is doubtful w hether half a dozen counties ia the State have given majorities for the Con vention. Chairman Watrea claims the election of Gregg by t)0,000 majority; Morrison will be several thousand votes behind Gregg. OHIO. Governor Campbell and the Democrat ic State Chairman concede McKinley's election by 15.000. Republicans claim that his majority will reach 25,000. SEW YORK. The Tammany fling was too strong for the Republicans of Xew York state. Flower, I democrat, is elected ttovernor by from 20,000 to 30,000 majority. The Re publicans will hare a majority on joint ballot in the Legislature. IOWA. Boies, Democrat, has probably been elected Governor.

Senator Sherman said at midnight : "I am satisfied we have elected both branches of the legislature and from pri vate advices, which I have received, I cm assured of my re-election. The peo ple of Ohio Lave to-day vindicated the iniquitous thrusts made by the Demo cratic party, and the state has undoubt edly been reclaimed, still there is a pos sibility that the oilicial returns may change the present." THE COUNTIES. . The Democrat have apparently made s clean suroicp in Westmoreland county excepting for SheritT. Returns from Blair county indicate that Judge Dean has been re-elected by 4,000 majority. The Democrats have probably elected Hughes sherift Bedford county will give the Republi can state ticket about 150 majority. In Allegheny county the Republicans have elected their entire ticket by not less than I5,0u0 majority. Uoofheial returns give Barker more than 500 majority over Linton for Presi dent Judge.
