Tuesday was feli day for the
Democrats of Cedar county. The
countenances worn by them on our
streets yesterday we're broad and
beaming to their fullest extent for
the first time in fifteen years. The
wrung each others fists, congratu-
lated, cheered, and did not forget to
taunt the mourners, with such whole
souled and hearty delight that even
the sorrowing members of the fu-
neral procession found mild pleas
ure in seeing such snperlative happi-
ness among men and brethren SC
long debarred therefrom.
As to the Republicans, the senti-
ment seemed somewhat diverse
But even those best satisfied with
some of the features of the result,
looked with unfeigned surprise, not
unmingled with chagrin, at the work
as a whole. 4 Republican majority
on the State ticket OF seven hundred
in 1874 reduced to one third OF that
number in l8s5-four candidates for
important county offices defeated
and one or two more sitting on the
ragged edge, are certainly enough to

In this country we are agreed to re-
ceive the voice OF the people as the
voice of God, and we do not wish to
moralze or comment on the situa-
ton. Every Republican can do that
for himself. Neither have we
charges to make or apologies to
offer. 1t is no time for ordinations
or recriminations. But we will pro-
pose, as we have many times done
before, that the Republicans of Co.
dar county hereafter do away with
the caucuses and conventions which
have proved so unsatisfactory, and
substitute instead the primary cleo.
ton system-joining once more all
together in honest effort to redeem
the county, the party and themselves.
We append the figures Of the vote
