GRANT ELECTED.
WHAT Is TO FOLLOW.

President Grant is re elected by an
overwhelming majority. His personal
character and administration beisg equal
ly assailed by his traducers and opposers
have been alike vindicated and approved
by the American people. Thirty Of the
thirty-seven states, 500 of the 800 cleo
toral votes and about 681 $40 of the about
IT'S, $50 of the popular vote is vindication
and approval seldom or never given and
must be abundantly satisfactory to Presi-
dent Grant aud his friends. Never be
fore was there SO malignant and foul an
effort made to defeat 8 candidate for
President and never before did an effort
meet defeat so signal and overwhelm
Tag. And from the defcst the maligners
and opposers may lcarn the lesson that
the time has gone by when Presidential
election can be carried by maligaily vi
tuperation and falseh1od,
President Grants Indian policy is to be
carried out. The Indian tribes are to be
renewed ON reservations and protected
when on them. And they who refuse to
go OF reservations or leave them AND
make war on the whites are to be treated
az enemies. Notwithstanding many re-
ports to the contrary the policy has work
90 and will continue to work we'll for
both Indians and whites. A policy die
tated by philanthropy humanity and
righteousness.ably carried into effect can
not fail to be beneficial in its administra-
ton. 0d1 .A
Taxation has been largely reduced du.
ring Grants Administration A farther
and greater reduction should be one Of
the earliest measures of Congress and the
Administration. Lessened taxation, and
the faithful collection and application of
the revenues, and the equal and just ad-
ministration of law ARE to continue meas
ures Of the Administration.
"LET US HAVE PEACE" at home and
abroad, will continue to be the DO licy of
President Grants Administration. And
it means Peace that is Peace. At home it
means Peace in obedience to law and not
in violation of it. It means reconcilix-
ton by the unreconciled ceasing to war
against the rights of others and the con-
stitution and laws Of our country. 1t
means clasping hands in the acknowledge
ment of the equal rights and the friendly
relations of all American citizens.
Abroad, it means following the exam
pie in settling the Alabama and San Juan
controversies with Great Britain by arbi-
tration. 1t means asking nothing of other
countries not clearly right and submitting
to nothing clearly wrong 1t means using
all honorable and lauda5le means for the
anicable settlement OF differences with
other countries, and when these fail, sub
hitting the differences to arbitration.
It means the protection of every Ameri.
can citizen at home and abroad, and SO.
curing to all the rights of life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. IG means pre-
serving intact the life and nationality of
our country and transmitting to the ages
free government of the people by che
people and for the people.

been desolated by fire, although it has
been the first in many years. A disas

400 buildings were burned, and many

In March, 100, q fire occurred that de-
