FATAL BLOW TO SOCIALISM.

How does this Republican victory affect that
the hshe;yl CONTROVERSY In our opinion It VIII not
affect If al all We cannot say that one party in Amer
,rn il more friendly To England than another
for in the Republic unlike other countries t1at
might be named, all parties sink Their difference and
acE mn the Government IN OF any foreign dispute
Thus we do not suppose that the triumph OF the
RpnublIcans Will do anything 10 throw oil ON the
tr,ubIrd waters OF the Newfoundland difficulty
The one cheering thing about tho contest ia that the
seni-SocialiStic "GreeneacH or " Labor party has
indng from recent events In America and on the Cont
nent, that if Socialists want TO make any hGadway IN
any country they must nperiase 1t first. In the Re
pubics Liberal MOnarches they appear reduced TO
imDoteDce But in the dcspOtic Empires they
powerful enough TO brighten the Governments into de-
strOyng civic liberty.
