The real reason of the Democratic desire
to repeal the Federal election law was clearly
shown up by Gen. Garfield, in the House the
other day. He characterized their infamous
purpose in this language:
Gentlemen-(a addressing the other side of
the House,) You seek to cut out section
Ia living section) from the criminal laws of
the United States, and to say that balot-bux
stutfing, fraud at elections, intimidation and
outrage, poisoning,the very fountain springs of
the elective franchise, shall be no crime and,
that the machinery by which such a crime
can be punished shall be destroyed. That is
what you propose to do here to-day, and to
do it at the dictation OF a party caucus,
These laws were put in the statute books BE-

The Muutcipal Election.

The municipal election yeslerday resulted
in substantial Republican victory. Both
branches of the city council are Republican,
and the combination has only won the bar
rem and fatigung honor of the mayoralty.
That appears to have been captured on a
new issue, the sabbatariau, brought for
ward by the argus yesterday morning, that
versatile journal appearing, for this occasion
only, as the sabbatarian organ.
The defeat of Mr.. Senter is to be regretted.
He would have brooght to the discharge OF the
duties of the Office tor which he was nomi-
mated ripe experience, conservative views.
and those other qualities which go to make
up capable executive officer. The city
however in the election of Mr.. Walker has
secured the services of gentleman who will
make a sensible, dignifed and courteous
mayor.
Fortunately the choice of Mayor is but an
lLcdent in the contest. The fight was really
over the city council and the Republicans
control that body by a large majority. The
city has been saved from the domination OF
the fiat stratocracy which menaced 1t. The
hungry swarm of ''colonels" that had an
ticpatively divided the spoils have suffered
an utter rout. Not one of that crowd who
was set up for office succeeded at the polls.
The result of the election is an overwhelm-
ing defeat of the coalition. The one thing
they did not care for alone was the mayor
ship; that useless prize is the only thing they
have won. Our victory is the more gratify-
ing because we had to fight the combined
aud c.amorous hosts of discontent-it is the
victory of Intelligence over ignorance, of
rational hope and patriotism over the
prophets of disaster, of the friends of
sound currency over the advocates of fat
mOney.
