The Chicago Journal. Republican or
gan of the most approved. stalwart stripe.
says editorially Of the New York election:
Senator Oonkling has arrived 10 Wash
ington, poor in health. but exulting over
the result Of the New York election. 1t is
in order. just here, to remark that if Mr..
Conkling had been more discreet than vain
glorious. the Republican convention would,
no doubt, have nominated a ticket that
would have been elected by significant m IA
jorities, instead of unsatisfactory plurali-
ties. 1t is now even more apparent than
it was at the time of the convention that
Mr.. Conkling's dictation and MIR. Cornell's
nomination as his man. was, to put it mild.
~, very grave political blunder.
The journal with the New York Times
charges the defeat of the Republicans in
New York to Conklingism. The Democrats
are as sure of carrying New York in 1880 as
they are of carrying Kentucky. 1t is this
fact, so clearly apparent since the election,
that causes tribulation in the Republican
camp.

tits charged by the Democratic State Gen.
trail committee of Pennsylvania that in Phil
adelphia the Republicans changed the vote
SO thatis made difference of Is. 900 in the
result. In one ward alones1 900 votes were
deducted from the Democratic column
and placed on the Republican side. The
Chronicle Herald says that the tactics Of
the Republican managers and ballot-box
suffers were outrageous; that the most
fragrant frauds were committed and that
there was no redress, for the police were
all Republicans who were either paid not
to make arrests or.'wilfully absented them
selves from localities where they were
likely to be needed. By this means Re-
publican repeaters and .bummers voted in
gangs and many who would have voted
the Democratic ticket were deferred from
doing so.
The Republicans have got the upper
hand in Philadelphia, the whole city gov
eminent being under control of the ring
that has ruled Pennsylvania for years
There is a day of reckoning at hand for
these Republican bulldozers which will
sweep them from political power like a
whirlwind. 1t will be happy day for
the people when the overthrow of Repub-
licanism is thorough and complete. That
day is not far oft will come in 1880
when, by an overwhelming majority, the
Democracy will elect the president.

Now that the peace commission has ar
rived at Los Pinos agency, we may expect
the announcement sooD, that the gentle
savage will consent to come back to the
reservation if plenty of food and fire water
is furnished 1t is all nonsence to daily
with these bloodthirsty savages on any
thing like civilized basis. 1t is about
time the United States government die
tated terms instead of being dictated to by
the savages 1.-THE savages were taught
that, to transgress the law would ensure
severe punishment, and that there would
be no delay in its execution. Indian out
RACES would soon cease. Il ls the temper
izing policy of the interior department aud
the mistaken policy of the peace makers
that encourages the Indians to commit
depredations which a vigorous policy
would prevent. These peace settlements
don't amount to much, except to bring
back to the reservations lot of hall
starved savages, and afford Indian agents
an opportunity to fatten on the plumber al
the governments expense. The indians
should BE treated as other outlaws when
they murder and pillage--a lenient policy
is a mistake.

The New York Herald says that the
returns of the MASSACHUSETTS election just
held show that. if the Democrats had re-
sisted the Establishments of General But
Ter. and concentrated their whole vote
upon some respectable candidate, instead
of dividing it between him and Mr.. Adams.
they probably would have carried the
State. A very considerable faction of the
Massachusetts Republicans is deeply dis
satisfied with the ruling clique in their
paxty, of which Mr.. Long is the repre-
sentative. They would gladly have seen
it overthrow, but not by General Butler.
A great many thousand votes were cast
for MIR. Long on Tuesday-more than
enough to have reversed the result
which nothing but personal opposition to
Butler would have brought out. and which
would have been silently withheld if the
united Democratic party had presented a
candidate not personally obnoxious.
There is warning to Democrats all over
the country in this Massachusetts cleo
ton. A Democratic victory probably has
been forfeited, by reason of seeking sue
cess through an illegitimate coalition. in
stead of sticking to Democratic principles,
and making none but sound Democratic
nominations.

The rent agitation in Ireland is likely 10
result 10 serious trouble before the ques-
ton is settled. There is said to be great
distress among some Of the people, many
OF whom are desperate enough to accept
almost any programme if it promise ia
vorabe solution of the problemn. There
are always plenty of men Of the dema-
gogue stripe ready to ride into favor with
the masses by assuming unwise leader
ship. 1t is this class of agitators that do
more to Increase the troubles of oppressed
labor than any other. Clear the field OF
demagogues and trouble is avoided. Grave
fears are expressed in England that a
bloody time will yet be the outcome, If
any set ofpeople in the world are entitled to
sympathy, it is the oppressed renters in
Europe who are forced to pay more for
rent, in many instances, than the products
OF the farm, after paying for necessary la
Dor amounts to. That aradical change in
the rental system of England and Ireland
will come. Is certainty, and the day is
not very far distant either. The only
question is-how will the problemn be
solved without bloodsbed2

10 one district in New York, the Re-
pubicans changed the returns SO that q
Democratic senator who had majority of
% votes, was defeated by ~ votes. The
way they did it was to change the vote of
the Republican candidate in one precinct
from &c to l26, making difference of 100
votes. There will be a contest, and it is
more than likely that the Republican
judges will be sent to the penitentiary

The Philadelphia Times says that there
ership in the nation, north and south, in
congress aud out of congress. The Time
speaks the sentiment of the masses of the
Democracy who sorely feel the need of wise
leadership and better organic alton. Both
OF these requisites to success are
within reach of the Democracy. 10
1880 the party must not go into the race
handicapped either by unsafe leadership
or false doctrines, but on d straight out,
uuequivocal Democratic platform, with
brave, aggressive men to lead the van to
victory.
