Our Pennsylvania neigh6ors hold their
Congressional election on the 3D. Of
November. The Democratic tycoons at
Washington, figuring upon tho basis Of
last Tuesdays doings in Ohio and Indiana,
have estimated that the Democracy will
gain eight Congressman in Pennsylvania,
This is the programme Let us now see
how nearly it will be fulfilled. The
situation there is slightly different
from that in Ohio last Tues
day. The temperance crusade invad-
ed much smaller area Of Pennsylvania
than Ohio, and the Republican party there
has no temperance plank in its platform.
On the other hand there is an eDor.
nous population OF working men, the
miners who dig the coal and the iron
workers whose labor gives Pennsylvania
so much of her wealth. To both these
classes the psst year has been one of
low wsges and scarce labor. Sucha state
OF things always reacts heavily against
the party in power. So it will not be
surprising to see tho Pennsylvania
Democracy poll strong vote. How the
miners and iron workers hope to better
their condition by voting for free trade
and rag money, it is Of course impossible
for any sane man to explain, but this
will not necessarily prevent the Demo
cratic dcmagogues from carrying over a
large following oil maIcontcnts. In the
midst Of financial depression and low
wages, the cry oil "vote for RoDoRBs and
down with hard times" will catch more
votes than oil the logic Of political econ.

THERE are mary persons, both Republi.
cans and Democrats, who take comfort In
the result Of the late elections as q YER
dict In favor Of more paper money. Many
Of the same persons also construe 1t as q
verdict against protective tariff, and in

on that subject We presume that this Is
the average Wetzel county view OF the
late returns.
We alluded yesterday morning to the
position which the Democracy took at
Baltimore in 1879 against imitation when
they adopted the Cincinnati platform Of
the Liberals who nominated HORACE
GRRRLRY. But Let US suppose, for the
sake Of the argument, that in case they OBJ.
tain control Of the next Congress they
will see ft TO go back upon that pledge to
the country and fall in with initiation.
And let US next suppose that by combin-
ing with the Republicans they will be able
to pass an imitation bill over the Presi.
dents veto. Then let US further suppose
that by joining teams in the same way
they will be ableto pass bill reducing the
present tariff down to point that will let

lovely country this would then be, 10 be
sure Lots oimoney and no tariff. The

And this means that other nations that

that unless VIC keep such nations out oil
this country with a tariff OF tax they will
