THE RESULT

If we have failed to thoroughly over
throw the power Of the corrupt major
it, in this State, it has simply been be-
cause the light was not equal to the
darkness; because the heather out
numbered the converts, as they did in
the old days when the blessed light of
Christianity fought against the black
ness Of Odin and Thor. But the work
goes brayely or. The idols are over
thrown in the East; the temples of
Moloch are despoiled; the shrlnes of
Mammon are rooted up.
There are thousands so incapable of
Independent thought that they dare
not follow the whisperings Of their own
Consciences; but they look afar OF to
see what their cousins and uncles think
in the land of their bc,h. To such
the results in the East viii come Ike a
great voice of author .ty.
New England has spoken. Sd3, as
Senator Thurman says, has not been
controlled by the ku-hlux, her voters
have not been inundated; she needs no
ghost come from the grave to testify to
her intelligent appreciation of the sltua-
ton, or to her loyalty to the Union.
And yet she is ready to trust the Oppo-
s.tion. She turns away with disgust
from the endless roboerIes and corrap-
tons of the dominant party; She shrlnks
from the imperial:stic tendencies of her
leaders; she recoils with horror from
third term.
We cali upon the men who have trl-
umphed in this revolution to be wise
and Just and honest. If they protect
the white men Of the South from the
carpet Daggers, and the black men Of
the South from the kuAiux; if they set
their faces like flint against all
robberie> of the public treasury;
= they cut down expenditures and re-
duce taxation. if they. IN short, do
their whole duty by the whole country;
the nation vii sustain them almost
unanimously and free institutions will
lie saved
We believe they viii do their whole
duty. We believe the election last
week brought to the surface the hon
esty, the conservatism, and the real Re-

THE NEXT SPEAKER.
The Mankato Rerieac says

Whether we have carried the Lower
House OF the Legislature or not, we second
the suggestion OF the Winona HeraId of
Hon NJ H. Burchard, OF Winona, as the
Opposition candidate tor Speaker II elect
ed, he will prove an able and impartial pre-
siding officer. If not elected, his selection
as the representative man of the Opposition
will prove credit to the party.
As the Opposition and Independents
have a majority in the next House, we
see no reason why they cannot agree
upon Mr.. Burchard, or some other
equally good man, for Speaker; and SO
control the organization of that body in
the interests Of the people.
Men who have defeated Republican
candidates will scarcely want to crawl
back into the Republican ranks, to be
used and despised.
The ''Independsnts' ofthe house will

THE TEMPERANCE QUESTION.

This is the way the Republican party
spurns and spits upon the Temperance
Beformers. TIE Chicago Tribuns,no
a Republican organ. says:
More than third-term prattie, more than
Batlerisnl. more than Press Gag and Credit
Mobiller Jobs and Santoon contracts, more
than GrangeriSln or any other ism. Prob 2,i-
ton has steadily and swiftly wrought the
defeat OF the Republican party, and placed
its opponents n power in every State where
!! was made a political issue.
That is to say. the Republican party
is willing to accept the votes on the
ground that it is ''the party Of moral
IDEAS" but when it comes to giving
those moral ideas form in moral action
and legislation, it respectfully begs to
be counted out.

THE RAILROADS.

Whatever else may be gained or lost,
we take it for granted that the coming
LEGISLATURE will be. anti-Railroad; not
in any unjust or proscriptive sense, but
in so far as that phrase indicates a de-
termined purpose to subordinate those
great corporations to the control of the
law: and to furnish the producers Of
the country some protection from their
exactions.
We are inclined to think, upon ma
ture reflection, that Minnesota should
to some extent, initiate the action Of
Wisconsin, and establish two, three or
four classes, into which she shonld as
sign the several railroads of the State,
according to the cost and amount Of
business of each; and then fix marina
for each class, for the transportation Of
wheat, oats, corn, -four, wood and lum-
Der. If these marina are fixed as low
as they should be, the roads would en-
rich the State and build up trade in
other branches which would soon com.
pensate them for any temporary losses
they might sustain. By permitting
them to retain their present rates on
all merchandise, except the productions
of the farm and forest, the reduction of
rates would not fall with crushing
weight on the roads.
We speak only for ourselves, but we
are inclined to think, that if We can get
reduced rates on the transportation Of
our bulky productions. we will be will
ling to bear the present rates of charge
for travel for few years longer. In
most cases the farmer can avoid travel
ing, but he cannot avoid the onerous
tax levied on his wheat by excessive
charges for transportation.
In the interval which will elapse be-
tween this time and the assem- bling of
the Legislature, we would be glad to
have our friends express their views on
this subject. We would also be glad
to learn the status of members elect on
this question. The probabilities are
that they will be more earnestly on the
side Of the people before they come to
St. Paul than they will be after they
have spent a month at the Capitol. Let
US hear what their opinions are now =
what promises they made to get elected,

CHEAP TRANSPOkTAT
The Boston Commonwealth says


The cheap transportation league is having
well attended meetings IN the various wards
OF this city, and rapidly directing general at
tention to their cause Gov Clatiin spoke
at one of them the other evening, and very
acceptably to the company present. He
pictured the Monopoly OF the Boston ami
Albany railroad management, and SAID that
It is the fault OF the people themselves II
they do not see to it that trusted representa-
tiyes are sent to the State House, when the
reform now started will be complete.
They should move at once, irrespective OF
party and let il be understood forever that
railroads are public ways, and therefore
should be tree ways The enormous tax on
the people, not only for the property upon
which the stock holders go scot tree, but in
the shape OF high rates OF fare and freights
and tolls received for passing the bridge at
Albany, with no account rendered OF the
earnings, pay millions OF dollars annually,
which 90 into one vast hopper 10 swell the
already gigantic fortunes OF few private
individuals, who control this public proper
ty in the great railway lines, ,connecting US
with the West, and upon which we depend
for our very existence as manufacturing
and industrial community.
We are glad to see that the East,
especially intelligent New England. is
moving in this matter.
SO far as wheat is concerned, cheap
transportation would not decrease the
price to the Eastern consumer for in
asmuch as the price of wheat is fixed
in the Liverpool market, the price in
New York and Boston would remain
substantially what it is now. The un-
Just exaetions Of the American railroa Is,
therefore, upon wheat transportation,
fall entirely on the Western farmers.
But cheap transportation between the
East and West would probably cheaper
all those articles of food. whose price
depends on the home demand such as
fruits, meats, vegetables, barley, oats.
&c.. while at the same time it would
give a better price to the producer.
In this regard the interests OF
the Western farmer and
the Eastern manufacturer are
identical Cheap food means cheap la.
boz, and cheap labor in the East means
cheap goods in the West.
As an intercontinental people our
first great necessity is cheap transpor
tation. and this can only be had through
government intervention.
We buy arhat rcs buy Plus high trans

| This is our whole case IN a nutshell
Nay more, the high rates charged or
the transportation of our productions
are added in the East to the cost of la
Dor there, and paid again by US In thu
increased cost of the goods we buy from
the East. Thus we burn our candle a

distress cover our whole land. Hence
