Four days have passed since the elec-
ton, and it still remains doubtful which
party has carried the State To be sure
there is no doubt as to who is elected Gov
ernor. Mr. Cornell has succeeded by
handsome plurality because there were
two democratic candidates running
against him. If the votes given to these
two opposing candidates had been
concentrated on one democratic cam
beaten by an adverse majority of at
least thirty thousand. Mr.. Cornell appears
to have run behind every other republican
candidate. He owes his election to the
democratic split. Had the democrats run
but one candidate for Governor, instead of
two, Mr.. Cornell. instead of winning a sue
cess which his associates on the republican
ticket do not share, would have run be-
hind them all, inasmuch as he has received
smaller number Of votes.
1t looks at present as if Mr.. Potter is
elected Lieutenant Governor by slender
majority; but if there had been another
democratic candidate in the field to divide
the QemOCfaClc vote MI. HOCtef WOulQ nave
shared the fate of Governor Robinson
Horatio Seymour, Jr., is also probably
elected by slight majority result which
shows, as the election OF Mr.. Potter shows,
the value OF high personal character in an
appeal for the suffrages Of the people when
parties are pretty equally divided.
The election of Mr.. Cornell proves
nothing as to the relative strength of
parties in the State, since it is evident that
he did not receive the full vote of his own
party. The vote for minor State officers is
a truer test of the strength Of parties in
New York. This vote is so evenly divided
that we must probably await the official
returns before we can determine which
party has really carried the State. This
doubtful result affords but little encourage
ment to the republicans. They had the
advantage of the republican victories in
Maine and Ohio; the full advantage of
whatever political capital could be made Of
the recent democratic follies in Congress
and of the splendid success of the resump-
ton of specie payments. And yet all these
issues, with the gloss of novelty still upon
them, have not enabled the republicans to
carry New York by clear and decisive
majority. New York still remains the de-
batable ground of the Presidential canvass,
with nearly equal chances to both political
parties.

The New Republican Responsibilities


BY electing more than three-fourths of
the Senators and nearly two-thirds of the
Assemblymen, together with the Governor,
the republicans of New York assume a
trust touching the management of public
affairs which must not be left out of calcu-
lation in computing the influences to affect
the vote of the State next year. For the
first time since Governor Dix went out of
Office the responsibility for giving the peo-
pie good State government rests undivid-
edly upon the shoulders of one political
party. The democratic Governors Tilden
lures republican in one or both branches.
For any thing good done or bad prevented,
or the reverse, praise and blame often were
divided. Thus the republicans were able
to claim with some show Of justice a share
of the credit for canal reforms and financial
economies effected in Governor 1ilden's
time, and with equal justice both Governor
Tilden and his successor were able to claim
that but for republican resistance in the
Legislature more reforms and economies
might have been accomplished. 1t is need
less to follow this vacillating distribution
of credit and censure into details. 1t has
been the chief political characteristic of the
State administration for the last five years.
Instances of it in respect to almost
everything requiring Legislative and ex-
ecutive concurrence will occur to every
mind without suggestion. Now it ceases.
For whatever good and evil Governor Cor
nell and his absolute Legislative majority do
the republican party, which has voted them
into their places, must bear undivided re-
sponsibility. The situation at last fully
corresponds with the common sense reso-
luton which has been reiterated in the
democratic State platforms for many
years 1.-THE party in power responsible
for all Legislation while in power"
In State whose popular vote is almost
evenly divided this responsibility easily
may turn the tide Of success between
parties even in Presidential election. The
subjects to which it attaches are of enor-
nous Importance. They touch every citi-
zen at an infinite number Of sensitive
points. Questions of railroad and canal
transportation, of the revision and equali-
cation of taxes and of the regulation of the
sale and use of Intoxicating liquors, not to
speak Of multitude relating to municipal

reform, await the action of Governor Cornell
and his republican Legislature and cannot
be shirked. Instead of poring over the
figures of the election of 1879 in
a fatuous endeavor to make worthless
representations from them concerning the
election of 1880, the republican press and
politicians of New York had better be facing
the new responsibilities of their party and
discussing how to deal with them. Has
the republican party here any settled
policy concerning the discrimination of
railroad managers in freights and fares,
concerning revision of the present sys-
tenn of assessment and taxation, concerning
the liquor excise law, or concerning the
municipal muddle in this city? None cer-
tainly that the public yet knows of. Yet a
policy must be framed in respect to every
one of these questions at Albany this win

pends on what that policy shall be.

A Western Catastrophe.

Our dispatches report an accident in
Kansas City, Mo-, which in certain of it's
features recalls the calamity in the Green
field candy factory in Barclay street. It's
most notable resemblance to that catas-
trophe is in the small number of persons
actually killed by comparison with the
number it seems natural to suppose would
be killed in such circumstances. All
the walls and floors of an enor-
nous factory fall in one indis-
tinguishable tumble, and when they
are down the timbers take fire from the
scattered Goals Of overthrown furnaces.
Fierce flames seize upon every part of the
wreck. Over two hundred persons are en-
ployed in the factory, and it is supposed
that nearly all are in the ruin One hun
dred are overwhelmed in one place, and
thirty are caught in another. but when the
excitement is somewhat allayed it is found
that all the persons employed are alive
save only eight. 1t is marvellous evidence
of activity and energy that so large pro-
portion Of the number of persons endan-
gered should come safely out of such a
scrape.

Egyptian Finances.

British satisfaction with the Austro-Ger-
man understanding has been put before the
world in an undisguised way, and that
understanding has been unreservedly re-
garded in official circles as an admirable in
vention,s solely designed for interfering
with Russian ambition in the East. But it
seems that it has some other objects, and it
is odd that England should be one of the
first Powers to feel it's effect in the de-
feat of pet scheme of British man@u-
wiring in Egypt. 1t appears that the
German agreement with Austria, whatever
may be its precise object with regard to
Russia. touches certainly the point Of the
relations of the Continental Powers to the
Egyptian finances, and that is point that
England and France had planned to settle
in their own way. So absolute were they
on that point that Italy's request to have
voice in the administration in the bond
holders interest was brusquely dismissed
with @ plain refusal. Austria, however,
was asked to consent to the arrange
mept of the finances as planned by the
representatives of England and France,
and she refused, resting her objection on
sound and simple reason. His Highness,
the Khedive, when he assigned his prop
erty for the benefit of his creditors, did
what has been done by many another dis
tressed debtor-he assigned property that
was only nominally his own-prop-

Perhaps the story of the impression of
boot heel to serve as part of the evidence
in the Hayden murder trial will not help
the prosecution. 1t has the appearance of
drawing things somewhat too finely for the
common sense of jurymen to be pleased
with it, and it may never be produced in
the trial This story is that on the cheek
of the dead woman there has been found
the trace Of boot heel, with the marks of
seventeen nails SO placed that they corre-
sponded exactly with that number of nails in
the heel of Hayden's boot. If the nails in
that boot heel were the large, stout nails
sometimes used by shoemakers they would
have made marks that would have been
seen Immediately; but if they are the small
nails that are driven in SO that the heads

the close of the war are sufficiently in
structed in political principles to adopt it.
Whether. however, it should succeed or
fail next year the democratic party cannot,
in our Judgment, hope. for permanent
success until it adopts these principles.
1t has failed, these many years. because it
abandoned them and took up whiggery.
1t has dragged at the heels of the re-
publican party, taking up usually the
policy which that party from time to
time abandoned, and always about two
elections behindhand. Mr. Thurman has
been relegated to private life because he
foolishly picked up the financial policy
which Mr.. Sherman shrewdly flung away
some years ago ; and in general the demo-
cratic leaders have acted very much as
though they were merely republican camp
followers, and were attempting TO live on
the republican leayings.
1t Is dangerous blunder when party
neglects to educate the people in its pecu-
liar principles and policy; but it is natural
blunder when the party leaders have aban-
doned their principles and have gone hunt
ing after expedients. To say that the demo-
cratic party will achieve success at once on
returning to it's principles would be haz-
ardous. But it can never hope to do SO
until it does come back, and it might as
well begin at once. 1t can never succeed
as sort or pinchbeck imitation Of the re-
publican party, for the country does not
like shams.
