TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.


:fssi El-----
Elections were held Tuesday In 10ssa
and Ohio. In the former State the
election was held for State officers and
memcers of the ;legislature: There
were. four tickets for State officers before
the people. Clear, the Republican can.
didate for Governor, has been elected
by 80, 600 majority over Irish, the can
didate Of the Democrats. The legssla-
ture Is Republican In both branches,
which secures the election of Repub-
lican for U. 8. Senator. @ 80.
=. The result In Iowa Ii a common
place piece Of political business. Iowa
could not be otherwise than Radical,
aod nothing better was expected Of the
people Of that State. The election OF
the Republican candidate was ,natter
or Nero torn; and was conceded from
the start. -, $40 .9.,,l75
In Ohio, however, thera was . hot
contest for victory. A. Democrss IN
that State has living chance, and an
Ohio Democrat is very live fellow at
home or abroad. The election was for
State officers and for members OF the
Legislature who are to choose u Senator
from that State. There were six
tickets In the Held Republican, DEM
ocratic, Greenback, Prohibition, and
two Workingmen's tickets; but the
real contest was between Judge West,
candidate OF the Republicans for Gov
ernor, and his opponent R., NJ. Bishop,
the Democratic candidate. Judge
West, when nominated, WAS highly
eulogised by the press Of his party
and subsequently engaged In an
active canvass Of the State. He
sought to rally the Republicans
all over the State, aud bid strongly
for the support OF the Workingmen.
Personally he is very popular, and his
speeches, no less than his record, COM
mended him to Republican support
Mr.. Bishop, not being accustomed t6
public speaking, hut a plain, prosper
GUS business man Of Cincinnati, made
no canvass further than visiting por
tiOns Of the State. But the time hat

entirely new constitution. The pre-
sent constitution contains more than
lGO articles. Suppose (aad think it q
reasonable calculation) that forty
amendments, some of them OF con-
siderable length, would suffice. Print
all these with the words, "FOr APP
prevail" below each, together with the
names of all the candidates for office,
with spaces left for opposing names,
and you will ut once perceive what
huge, unwieldy concern our next
ticket will be. 1t would be necessary to
print 1t like the fraudulent "tape-wOrm
ticket" that was once voted in Califor-
mia. The print was 80 small that it
WAS impossibie for the voter to tell
which side he WAS supporting. Be-
sides, many voters will not see the
amendments until they come to the
polls-they will wish to consider them
and will not have time. They will be
pulled aud hauled about by candidates
| for Office and their friends until the
amendments will be finally lost sight
| OF and like those recently submitted,
none can tell what will he their fate.
| 1t il Objected to n constitutional con-
vention that the expense will be too
great. This argument Is fully met by
the consideration that ono years exis-
| tence under Il properly altered con-
stitution will more than compensate for
all the expense of II convention. Again
1t is said that our emancipation mas
been too recent, and that we should
not risk the political excitement that
would he engentlered by All election

cipation, though recent, is as complete
and enduring as that OF Texas, Arkan-
sas, Mississippi or Alabama. The car

enjoy again. 1t died with the Return

left only minute quantity Of ashes. The
proper tobacco to obtain Is that known as
the Caporal. BY making your own cigar
cites you can get good paper, and also avoid
the paste used in so many OF those bought.
The great trouble about cigarette smoking
Is that so many addicted to the habit inhale
the smoke. This Is bad. The absorption OF
the nicotine of tobacco by the mucous mem
branc Of the lungs and bronchial tubes Is
much more immediate than that by the
mucous membrane of the mouth and lips,
and the consequence II that the inhalation
~ tobacco smoked by people in anywisc
weak in the lungs or bronchia Is very dan
gcrous. One thing, however, may he said in
favor Of cigarettes. that the paper protects
the lips from actual contact with the to-
bacco, and thus helps to ward of sort OF
disease Of the lips and mouth which somc-
times afllcts cigar smokers. But There
always lies against them the objection that,
being cheap and ready at hand, there Is II
temptation to consume too many Of them.
We hope our civil correspondents now
know all about cigarettes; but we warn
them that I'm whatever form they use to-
bacco they invite trouble Of the nerves. and
that moderation there as elsewhere, is the
rule OF the philosopher

HAYES in the south.

The journey of Mr.. HAYES through the
South, unlike the previous excursions of the
same parsonage. displays one feature of ex-
traordinary suggestiveness and import
ancc. We refer To a fact that among the
throngs that have surrounded him and
cheered him. not ono prominent Republican
has been seen. The representatives of the
party which bore Mr.. HAYES to the White
House have all been conspicuous by their
absence. Only Democrats and cx-COnfcd-
crates have awaited him, welcomed him, and
chccrcd him
The reason Of this Is plain. Since Mr..
HAYES came into power he has steadily
turned his back upon the Republican party,
repudating its ancient ideas, pushing aside
its leading men in the Southern States,
aud seeking for friendship and support
in the ranks Of the Democracy alone.
Hence the spectacle to which we have re-
feircd. Hence the plaudits Of Democrats
and the sullcn absence of Republicans. His
own party stand uloof from him because
they feel that he has destroyed them. The
other party crowd around him because they
know that he has done precisely what they
require, and done it more thoroughly and
with less question or hesitation than Mr..
IILDEN would have brought to the task
What IS the final fate Of high official
who abandons his own party and goes over
10 its enemies! What became of JOIN
TYLER What became Of ANDREW john
son They We're much larger men than Mr..
HAYES. with amplcr powers of mind and
greater force Of character. Yet destruction
overlook them
The traitor il always hated by the party
he betrays, and always despised by the
party he serves. Nj HAYES can form no
exception to the rule. Going into the White
House in fraud, he will come out of it in uni
versul contempt and dctcstation.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1877-09-24

binary. Il Is strange that Mr. HAYES and
every Cabinet officer except SHERMAN of
Ohio should start Off from Washington on
aimless promcnades. and that, the moment
they are gone, n squad Of Ohio politicians
should instantly begin to work among the
Ohio department clerks, gathering up either
money contributions or else promises to go
home next month and votc-thc presence
and silence of Secretary SHERMAN being OBJ
viously far more useful to this scheme than
his absence with the rest Of the rambling
Cabinet.
Either the pcregrlnatlon of Mr.. HAYES has
been taken advantage of for doing, in WASH
ington, against his desire, what could not
have been done had he remained at his post
of duty, or else he was conveniently absent
in order that it might be done. On either
supposition the successful tampcring with
his subordnates while at their work is II
fact that cannot wholly be hidden behind
the dust Of the HAYES caravan.

and It's dolngs. ms apolog! fol tnr ,,co-
tion Of the Commission Is, that without it
the country could not have ESCAPED a most

there would have been deadlock in the

and no peaceful means of solving it, For
whatever Of truth there is in this statement
Of the situation, the Republican majority of

II was a notorious fact. known TO cvcry-
