This large increase in party's vote in an off year over the vote the same party east in the previous presidential election is probably unupie in American political hist ry. In the weeps f EL rm ' p-il jo swell increase was apparent. Tlu fieunv craiie victories were due i:i Isjth rases t-i a falling off in the lSepubliem vote. Put this year the Pt-pubiii-.tii viitory is due t-t a Urge increase in the P.epubliean vote the party having cast not only the largest vote it ever h.1!c.1, lmt also hav ing cast the larRet vote ever H!lod by any party in this coin-try at any election ever held. This year the KepuMieans cast 3-1. Hi more vot.-s than the Itetu.s rals did when they elected Cleveland, and they have a plurality over the Jtoniocrats of l.t ,sTo, and only lack l.7i; votes of having a popular majority. The D.-uckt its polled only per cent of the total vote two years ago, and called that a great popu lar indorsement. The Kepublicam have just s-lle 1 almost ler -nt of the vote, and can justly claim the highest measure of approval ever accorded to any party. With a fair election in the South the total Itepubliean vote would have Iwn over (i.Ono.OH. and the lb-publican plural ity over the Democratic vote would have lieen nearly io.iM' The big majorities wero noticeable features iu someof the states. Pennsyl vania heads the list with a Hepublieau plurality cxt-eding J .'. New York, Ohio, Illinois and Michigan each gave over lmi.iMl Republican plurality. In Mas sachusetts, V.'isi-oiisin, Minnesota and Iowa the Republican plurality exeeedi-1 .Vi.uit, while in New Jersey and Indiana it fell but a few thousand U-l-.w this tigurw. The vote would have shown better for the Republicans had not tho opisisition in several states ljeen eotif:ilratjd on the Republican ea:ij;lates fir governor rather than on mcuilfrs of e-mrcss.

The i';-t. concludes its ci;iiari son in these worlds : "The vote, impel !"ct as it is, shows that the election of this year was the most tremendous political upheaval this country ever witnessed. There is no parallel lo iu The voters rose in their might and sni"te the lc!iicra--y hip and thigh, and literally massacred its hojieof future preferment.

From v. hat all the reporters have gathered, j however, it may l stat .-it that tho pro psed law is of a very moderate and con servative character, giving undoubted relief, it is said, to tlnr-i who hear tiie burdens of local taxation, but at t he same time dealing fairly and e-piitahly with the manufacturing, transportation and other corporate interests of the dale. If enacted as it now stands all of the state tax or money at interest ami vehicles for hire will be turned over t the counties instead of only throe-fourth of it as at present. The mercantile tax and tax on writs an I f-es of the county othc.-ra v. iil also go to ihe ooa.i'.y treasury instead of into the state treasury. This will amount to several thousand dollars per annum in the county of Som erset, and in the state at l.irg? will re-nil iu a million dollars ln-ing diverted from tiio stato treasury for the relief of local taxation.

Riirtiiiiatisui is more prevalent h--re than ever l -fore. Whcu this disease f:ist eiis upon an individual with Its orciiess and pain, swelling the joinis, rendering Iiim lielples in bis movements, he is in died an object of pity. Tlie slight pain in tin; b.v.-k, joint or muscles, is a warn ing indication of an im;ovcrished condi tion of the blood, and if not attended to at once, means rheumatism. Since, the introduction of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, there have '.Ken fewer rheumatic sufferers. Favor ito Remedy drives out rheumatic poison from the hi. tod, restores the circulation, strengthens the nervo power. The lest proof of it.s value, is the g .d it ha done. ' I v as alllieted with inilamuiatory rheumatism for fifttH-n year, writes Mr. F. P. T iyer, if F,ist Nassa, N. V., "so severe that I w .is supjHised to lie a crip ple for lifo. Und-T physieiaas treatment I grew wmms. Dr. Kennedy's favorite Remedy helped me from the time I first used it, and entirely cured me." Tiie iieuji:;',! daughter if Mr. James ?.IeFarlaud, of Dc. Moines, la., was help les for months with sci-.it ie rheumatism. After a few doses of Dr. Kennedy's Fav orite Remedy, she li"gan to grow better, and continuing ji use was cured. .Mr. (i. Lansing, f T.ny, ,N. Y., liad rheumatism m ba-l thai he had to l.e tnruol over in lied. After using Dr. Kennedy's Fav orilo Remedy bill a t-iiort while, was rc-siored t-i heallh.
