WHAT THE ELECTION TEACHES.

The election last Tuesday shows con-
clusively that party lines are nearly OBJ
liberated in Nevada. and. that the
straight ticket" era in politics is
ended. The old issues which divided
parties are dead and new ones must
arise ere the people will again divide
on strict party lines. Scratching
tickets was the order of the day
throughout the State last Tuesday. In
almost every county in the State, with
the exception of Storey, mixed tickets
were elected. and the majorities for
successful candidates in that county
vary from SO to 1910, fact which in
dicates that the voters were governed
in their choice more by men than by
party names. Eiko county, which
gave the Democratic State ticket a
large majority, elected the entire Re-
publican delegation to the Assembly,
aud Lander county, which gave the
ObRtO anu COuAty tlCh6lS q
majority, elected a Republican Senator
By large majority. This county,
which gave Kinkead over fifty majority,
and elected at least half the Republican
county ticket, gave the Democratic
State ticket. with the exception of Gov
ernor. an average. majority of nearly
one hundred. Ormsby county,
which has heretofore been Repub-
hcan since the organization of
Nevada as Territory. elected mixed
ticket, composed of Republicans and
Democrats, to Legislative and county
offices. and gave Adams, Democrat, a
majority of thirty. eight for Lieutenant
Governor. Lander, Nye and Churchill,
all Democratic counties, probably
elected Mckinney. Republican, District
Judge by a small majority, while
Washoe, Ormsby aud Douglass, all Re-
publican counties, elected King. Demo-
esat, District Judge by large majority
It is also probable that Sewall, Demo
crat, has been elected District Judge in
Lyon and Esmeralda, both Republican
equities.
The returns also show that candidates
who took an active part in the campaign
az public speakers. alinost Invariably
run behind their tickets In the towns
where they addressed public meetings.
Attrell, who was probably the most
sloquent and aggressive. speaker in the
campaign, is the worst beaten man on
his ticket. The same is true of Mighels.

sEoW TE4E PRESENT POPE WAS
 ELECTED.

It was only by mishap that Cardinal Mastai-Fenetti attained the tripple-crown at all. The popular candidate was Cardinal Gizzi, and the most powerful man in the college itself was Cardinal Lambruschini. Mastai-Ferretti was only one of crowd and ill the first ballot he hardly seemed to be in the running. Lambruschini had the highest number of votes, and everything seemed to mark him out as the future Pope. But there's many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip even in @ conclave; and the Italians have proVerb that, in these contests, the favorito never wins He did not in this case. In the second and third ballot Mastai- Ferretti came mora and more distinctly to the front, Gizzi disappeared from the lists. and Lalnbruschini fell hopelessly into the rear. But if Lambru8chini could only hayo kept open the oonclaye few hours longer Ic might have displaced his rival, and per. haps have placed the tiara upon his own brows, CT, if not there, might at least have placed it upon the brows of his friend Franzoni; for Mastai-Ferretti was in bad ordor with the court of Austria on account of his sympathy with the national party of Italy, and whom the ballot that made him Pope was taken, the Austrian Plenipoten- tinrv was on his way from Vienna with veto in his pocket against the Archbishop of Imola and with Cardinals enough in his train to turn the scale in favor of the Genoese Cardinal. The veto arrived few hours too late, and the tagging Cardinals
