IOWA AND OHIO ELECTIONS.

The elections in Iowa and Ohio on
Tuesday passed off quietly. Neither
State polled fullvote. Returns come
in slowly, but enough has been receiy-
Ell to know that Iowa has gone Re-
publican by $4,000 majority and Ohio
Democratic by perhaps 10000 majority.
There were four or five sets of candi-
dates for State officers in each State,
but with all the candidates there was
a large falling off Of votes In Iowa
this may be accounted for by the rain
and mud and the feeling of Republi-
cans that the election was safe by 30,-
900 to $4,000 majority. In Ohio a
large proportion of the falling off was
on the Western Reserve where the Re
publicans usually give large majorities.
1t is thought that Republicans
there refrained from voting to
express their disapproval of the Presi-
dents Southern policy and Civil Service
Reform. But othec causes operated
to give the Democrats majority. The
chief Of these was the Workingmen's
party which polled in Hamilton Coun-
ty alone about 10000 votes. These
votes were given chiefly by Republic
cans, i Is said, but few Democrats
voting the Workingmen's ticket.
The result of the elections may be
summed up as follows:
IOWA
has elected the Republican State ticket

THE Nez Perces, after a battle OF
three days hard fighting with General
Miles, with heavy loss on both sides
has surrendered. This ends the Nez
Perces war and perhaps the present
Indian war.
The Neg Perces have generally been
friendly but by bad treatment have
been goaded into war. Now being
whipped and having surrendered it is
to be hoped that they may hereafter
be treated justly.

their excess OF acdity may be corrected
Everybody accustomed TO drinking clarct
knows that an inferior quality may be made
very palatable by the addition Of scltzcr
The best and most wholesome wines for gen
oral use are the good, sound, maturcd wines
Of Bordeaux and Burgundy, the finer and
older the vino the more perfect being
its tonic qualities. Most shcrrcs and ports
are madc-up Wines and contain about twice
as much alcohol as other wines; but Of all
of them the madc-up dry sherry Is the most
pernicious. the drvncss being given It by
nitrous ether, sulphato Of lime, tannin,
alum, and other drugs. Real dryncss means
the absence Of swcctncss-a wine free from

tive destruction. When anything il added

But the main beverage Of the people must
be beer, and the extent to which its use has
grown in this country Is hopeful sign. 1t
has already made serious inroals on whis-
key, and its consumption ~ spreading yearly
among natives and foreigners. Beer con-
tains less alcohol and less acid than wine,
and when sound and the fermentation thor

healthy persons who lead an active or la
borious life in the open air, though less de

beer in large quantities harms, and does not
help the working man. The sum and SUBJ

properly used, and of good quality, alco-
holic beverages are an advantage; but when
consumed in any except moderate quantities
they work a positive injury, and as most

can least OF all be relied upon I'm n
public matter OF such importance. More
over, the spirit and temper Of his remarks
show, on tho part Of their author, an OK
cccdingly unfriendly disposition toward
Mr. CoNKLING. From all Of these things we
conclude that Mr.. WATrERsoN's statement
is by no means to be relied upon and that
he has dono very wrong in putting forth
upon such an insecure foundation allcga-
tions so deeply affecting tho honor OF n
gentleman and the integrity Of Senator.
We have no information respecting Mr.
CoNKLfNG's views Of tho last Presidential
election other than is recorded in his pub
lishcd speeches and his votes in Congress.
We have no doubt, however that he must
have regarded tho conspiracy TO secure for
MIR. HAYES through fraud majority Of one
electoral vote with all tho horror and
dctc-tation which 1t must inspire in
every honest and interrupted mind; but
that he coqucttcd with the TrLDEN men,
or that he ever proposed any bargain by
which he was to lead IA body OF dissatisfied
Republicans in open revolt on condition that
hc should Toe reelected to the Senate through
Democratic aid, cannot be anything but that
sort of invention which, in an excited time,
always ilourishcs in gossip and in rumor,
imposing upon the crcdulOus but rarely de-
cciving tho critical and the wise. At this
distance and this time OF day it requires no
great penetration to affirm that there Is
nothing in it. Besides, Mr.. CoNKLINc is not
that kind of a man.
Yet there certainly was an immense oppor-
tunity, not only for him but for any other
Republican statesman having the power to
rise above narrow considerations of party
and To place himself on the clear heights Of
truth. justice, and patriotism. Such man.
speaking one honest, earnest word. would
in an instant have blown the conspiracy to
atoms, and made himself the hero Of the
whole nation, not for a day, but for all time

mated. Tho sales for tho months already
elapsed have been large, owing to the desire
OF consumers to lay in their stocks before
prices rise. We have now entered upon an
era OF strikes and suspensions of mining, and
there is no telling what the business of the
remainder Of the year will be. 1t Is clear,
however, that unless the company can earn
from coal an average profit of n dollar per
ton on 100000 tons, not only are dividends
on its stock impossible, but IL Is drifting into
certain bankruptcy.
The committee devote n great deal Of
space to the enumeration OF the company's
possessions, and calculation of their cost
and value. They might have spared thcm-
selves the trouble 1t Is of no consequence
what coal lands have cost if the coal in them
Will not bring enough to pay for mining il,
nor how many millions Of dollars may have
been expended in constructing a canal or a
railroad or II brick and plate-glass palace,
unless it can be made To earn money. The
amount Of the earnings Of an investment is
the measure of what it is commercially
worth. The whole vast property of the
Delaware and Hudson Canal Company is
only a machine for producing revenue and
if it fails in that regard, it is imnatcrial
whether it he called worth one dollar or a
thousand millions of dollars. This magnify
ing and cXtolling the value Of the lands and
works Of the company Is like the Chinese
Eong-bcating in war 1t makes n great

prc. This force, which we were told six
months ago had been obliged TO stop en-
route To sow and reap grain for its support,
seems at last to have reached the eastward
outposts OF YACUB's kingdom. These have
fallen, but, between them and tho capital
stretch five hundred miles, with more than
one position well adapted to defence. Tho
Independence Of Kashgar, therefore, lies in

Whatever may Toe the merits of the new

that n reinstatement of Chinese authority
would be boon to eastern Turkistan But,

the best guaranty of security to the Gov

A NEW MOVE.

1t is proposed to add TO the constitu-
lion of New York new article, which
provides for the election in every city
of the State of board Of finance, which
is to be chosen exclusively "by the cleo
tors of the city who shall for two years
next preceding the election have paid
an annual tax on property owned by
them, and officially assessed for taxation
of the value of not less than $500, or
shall have actually paid during the same
period yearly rent for premises occu-
pied 10y them for purposes Of residence
or lawful business of not less than
$3.50" This in plain English simply
means an abridgement of the right Of
suffrage, and il the measure proposed in
New York should succeed it will not
be long before an effort will be made in
other parts of the country to accomplish
the same thing. We call attention 10
it as one of the indications OF the drift
of the times, and as one more stride to-
wards the lessening of the liberties OF
. the people.

OuGsaT TO IsE REDUCED.

Now that Congress is still in an eco
nomical mood, it might turn its atten-
ton to a reduction of the Presidents
salary. The sum of $4,000 per an
nun is too much From Washington
down to Grant one-half that sum was
deemed amply sufficient TO maintain the
dignity of the presidential office. 1t
was increased simply to crafty The van
ity, if not the greed of Gen. Grant, and
il is high time that it should be redu-
ced, especially since the country is so
greatly depressed in its commercial and
manufacturing business, and the people
burdened with the enormous weight of
taxation. While the salaries OF all the
minor officials Of the country have been
reduced it is not consistent with the
spin it of a just economy that the President
should r, ueive double the sum paid his
predecessors, with the single exception
