The French camp between Arthe-

tilted, and armed with cannon of long

Rebel Democracy can be driven out
Of Office and power, If the Union men
will only use the forces at their CON-
mand. We hope that measures will
be inaugurated to secure a good or
ganization in every county in the Dis
triot without delay. Let a Central
Executive Committee be appointed.
Let this committee see that both
white and black Republicans are pro-
vided with sound party newspapers
and documents. Let there be held
at the county towns, meetings for
public speaking, and whenever posi-

the country. Let a bold and open

ferent result in the Second District

IT is true that many Republicans
we're willing, after the complete vic
tory of October. to listen to the prop
osition made to them by few old
Democrats and prominent citizens, to
make Mr.. Baker a Citizens candi-
date and not array party lines at the
special election. But that PROPOSE
ton was Indignantly rejected at the
meeting of the Crescent Club on the
evening of October 25th. The DEM
ocratie leaders and whippers-in de-
clared that they would not then, nor
at the general city election in the
Spring, discard politics.
The Republicans did not shrink
from the contest which the Demo-
Gratis inaugurated for the election of
last Saturday, and are ready for con-
tinuance oft. They are fully con.
WINGED that the best way to protect the
peoples interests in public affairs is to
sustain the Republican party. And
as the Democrats sought the contest
in the special election, the Republic
cans of Evansville now say most en-
phatieally they will give them another
and more complete overthrow in
April.

The Late City Election.

AS we anticipated, IN OrueF "
weaken the force of the defeat on
Saturday, the Courier is engaged in
the difficult task of attempting to
convince It's readers that it has no po-
litical significance IL says that tie
Democracy expected defeat, and that
the majority is not so large as was
expected. What consolation there
can be in this fact its friends are vel
come to. It says the Republicans
brought out their full vote. and that
the Democracy had no organization
and did little work. The facts are
directly contrary. We are mortified
to confess that all the Republicans Of
the city did not see proper to go to
the polls and vote. preferring to risk
the defeat of our candidate rather
then lose few minutes from their
employment. Not for years nave we
seen so small an array of Republican
workers at the polls aSon the morn
ing of the last election. In the after
noon, when it was apparent that the
Democracy would have out their last
man, the Republicans put forth some
extra efforts, but it was too late
to bring out all the laggaTds. On the
other hand the Democracy never dis
played better organization, to the
public at least, whatever the Courier
may say of its private work. than on
election day. And never were so
many elements brought to bear to Sc
cure success. With few exceptions
the old party workers were to be
found all day at the polls and through
the wards. The police force was null.
tiplied, and every one of them con.
stituted himself q member of the
Democratic rallying and challenging
committees, and did efficient service,
for which they receive pay out of the
city treasury. The street hands
which number a small army, also sub.
sisting off the public funds, and the
whole Water Works force, were to
the lest man brought TO the polls
and hardly one Of them dared to vote
against the DeG ooratio candidate, on
pain Of dismissal.
On the question Of the aggregate
vote cast as compared with last year
the Courier puts out Of view entirely
the large additions made by the pres.
emit Council since the last election, tC
the territory of the city, increasing, as
Mr.. Van Ripper states in his circular
to the Eastern capitalists, the ares
about one-third. With all these ad
ditions TO the city, which embrace
about the entire inhabited part Of
Pigeon Township, the total vote i;

at the general city election in April
when full vote of the city was cast
A comparison of the vote of the
Wards last Saturday and in April
shows that In the central wards of the
city, where there were no additions
Of territory, there is almost uniformly
a decrease in the number of ballots
cast.
But we are content to take the issue
which the Courier makes. The Re
publican party is willing to accep
the challenge offered by the Democ
raoy to measure the strength of The
parties, upon the merits of the pres
emit partisan administration of CITY
affairs. Shall the present manage
ment of municipal affairs be contin

and squarely submitted to the people
We will not fear the result of theil

the Russians has been extended to

Friday last the President directed
Secretary Fish 10 send a cable dis
patch to London peremptorily recall
ing Motley as Minister to England,
Morgan, Secretary of Legation, to act
as Charge de Affairs until a new
Minister is appointed. The Presi-
dent gives as mis- reason for this i'm
mediate action, the necessity for in
slant decision in the fishing contro-
versy with Canada, and other differ
ences with the British government,
which he does not feel inclined to en-
trust to the management of Motley.
A contest is arising over the vacant
Commissionership of Internal Rev

There are several Senators here,
and all appear to be greatly inter-
ested in the contest, but it is still
impossible to give any opinion as to
the result. Gen. Woodford, of New
York, and Representative Kelsey, are
mentioned. Allison, of Iowa, has
many warm friends, who urge his
fitness, but it is unknown if he would
accept. Douglas, the present acting
Commissioner, continues to hold his
position. It was stated yesterday by
a Senator that Senator Morton re-
ceived from the President the prom
