NORTHERN SoLIDIrY,


A solid North has been revealed some
what earlier than had been anticipated
The North is now practically solid except
that Indiana has not spoken, and there is
slight flaw to mar its solidity revealed in
the State of New York, but which is not Of
sufficient magnitude to impair the struct-
ure. This slight imperlection has been
produced by causes such as will not be
likely to appear when that State is called
upon to vote upon issues of n more National
character. Next fall the contest will be for
Presidential electors, members of Congress
and members of Assembly. Parties will be
divided on National issues, and there will
be no room for lactional divisions or per-
sonal alterations The differences that have
sprung up under the friction of personal
and local ambition, and have marked the
recent contest more distinctly than is de-
sirable will entirely pass out Of sight. They
will not appear rs a disturbing element of
the campaign. There will be no occasion
for the exercise of scratching talent. There
will be no voting in the air. The issue will
be plain, and the line will be distinctly
drawn between the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties. Those who favor honest
money-the sovereignty of the National
power over what is known rs State sOver-
eighty, and the supremacy of the Constitu-
tion in all its guarantees over sectional rev.
olution and outlawry-those who believe
that the rights of freedom and equality be-
fore the law are more dear to the American
citizen than the mere qualification of per-
sonal ambition aud the enjoyment of the
spoils of office, will be found acting and vot-
| ing with the Republican party.
On the other hand, those who favored
and aided secession and rebellion; those
who have subsequently labOred to subyert
the Constitution of the United States and
defeat its most important guarantees to the
American citizen those who have banded
themselves with arms in their hands to de-
spoil q portion of the American people OF
the right of suffrage on account of race
color and political belief; those who favor
home rule; those who have subyerted the
popular will by intimidation, violence, MUIR
der, ballot-box stuiiing and false counting
of votes, and all who sympathize with these
nefarious practices, added to other political
denominations too numerous TO catalogue
here, will be alrayed ON the Democratic
side of the lino-and thus separated, the two
parties will contest the field OF 1880. Under
such issues aud with results that impend
over them there can be no doubt where the
State of New York will plant herself II
will most assmcdly not be on the side o
repudiation, deprecated currency, viola
ton of the guarantees of the Constitution
toward the,ss.nbest citizen in the land, OIL

THE VICTORY SEEMS TO BE OURS.

The leading Republican press of New
York city and Albany, the State capital,
seem to have settled down upon the con-
viction that the entire Republican State
ticket is elected except, perhaps, the En-
gineer. AS the remote Republican counties
make their returns the chances of success
for the entire Republican ticket have in
creased until the question is now regarded
as virtually settled. We now thinl; that
the boom is genuine, and the time for q
Republican shout is near at hand

THE people of Memphis now have
another favorable chance to build sewers
throughout th3t Inflated city; but it is to
be feared they will neglect it again. Like
the old farmer who didn't need roof on
his barn in dry weather, and couldn't put
one on when it rained, they court disaster
and calamity by their own reckless disre-
gard Of opportunity.

THE progress of Republicanism is shown
in remarkable degree in Albany County,
New York. In 1876 the Democrats carried
it by 1914 majority. This year the Repub-
licans carried it by about 1900. The most
peculiar feature of the recent canvass is that
there were three candidates for sherif-two
Republicans and one Democrat-and one of
the Republicans was elected.

THE Mobile Register says "the Southern
States are the most peaceful, prosperous
and law-ubiding communities in the
" civilized world.' The trouble with this
declaration is the assumption upon which
it is based that the section referred to be-
longs 10 the civilized world. The political
barbarities and social diabolsm which pre-
vail therein under the bloody guise of bogus
Home Rule serve to prove that this is n
false assumption. As for prosperity, we
have always claimed that the South is bet
ter off to-day than it was before the war;
but we admonish its people that the exodus
is lorerunner of disaster, and that if it is
not stopped very soon, the tide of success
will turn against them, their prosperity
will come to an end and the accustomed
and historical punishment Of grave political
crimes will be visited upon them. This
punishment, as all the world knows, is de-
yelOped in general commercial and agricul-
tural stagnation, arising from the absorp-
ton of the public mind in other matters
than the regular pursuits of Christian live
lihood. When portion of any people or of
any community become so devoted to the
bigoted assertion of partisan control as to
forget the obligations Of good citizenship
and resort to bloodshed instead of peaceful
methods of conducting their forms of Gov
ernment, this fate certainly awaits them.

GRANTS reception next week. Thus it
happens that Republican city win greet

Aud KEEYARTER HARRISON, Democratic
mayor thereof will, in the logic of the DEM
ocrotic press be accused of aiding the boom.
If securing a few subordinate Offices on
the State ticket and losing the Governor
and both branches Of the legislature makes
q complete Democratic victory in New
York, then we can get at the Democratic
idea Of completeness 1t is a minority vic
tory. The Democratic party divided thi;
year in that State, under the circumstances
is $4,000 votes stronger than it will be in
1880, when only National issues are at

EUREKA! The Democrats have now
found what they term an "invincble"
ticket. 1t is SEYMOUR and MCDONALD.
1t is to be hoped that they may try the in
vincibility of such contrivance. Nothing
would suit the Republicans better than to
have that party enter its cemeterial domain
and dig up from its moldering remains the
skeleton of statesman who has been buried
for fifteen or twenty years and attempt to
galvanize him into popularity again, 1t
would only prove second burial after VEN
lilating the ashes of the past, Let it take
that shape. The funeral might be made O
little lively by the Republicans, but the sec.
ond burial would be inevitable.

robbed the schools, closed their doors, and
practically suspended the system of free
public education in many parts of the
Commonwealth, ever since they came into
power under the guise of Conservatism
sham Conservatism. The effect of this sys-
tenn of robbery was to drive away from
them hundreds and thousands of voters of
the poorer classes who distrust them. be-
cause of their enmity to free schools, and
who sympathize with the so-called Read
justers for the reason that they claim to be
the friends of that system.
=
THE claim is made that the real issue in
New York was GRANT and anti-GRANT,
and those who believe and hope the Demo-
Gratis have realized any success or made
any progress in that contest, pretend
also to believe that the result was unfavor-
able TO GRANTS Thrd-Term propects. We
apprehend, however, that all this will have
very little to do with his denomination. The
speculative assumptions of political gossips,
based as they are upon the facts and figures
of to day, will have very little weight when
the Republican convention meets next year.
The fresher and more direct influences of
the long session of Congress, which will
then be in session, will have more to do
with the action of that convention than
anything else. BY that time, unless the
impossible occurs-unless, we mean, the
Bourbons learn something and forget much
more--the necessity for GRANT" will be
ten times more apparent than it is now.
And it must be remembered that an in
creased necessity of this kind will be fol-
lowed by an increased return Of Republican
wanderers in Opposition fields to the ranks
of StalwOrtism. In other words, the So
called Republican revival of the present
will then reach its eliminating and over
whclmingly victorious altitude.

TIE Fastest TRAIN IN THE WORLD
The fastest train run by the Northwest
ern railway does the distance from Eus-
ton to Rugby in one hour and fifty min
utes; but this speed is equaled by the
Southwestern mail which runs to Dover,
seventy-six and one-half miles in one
hundred and twenty minutes. But these
are far exceeded by the Great Northern
Scotch express, which only takes one
hundred and twenty.nine minutes to run
one hundred and five and one-half miles
to Grantham from London, and by the
Great Western "Flying Dutchman. "
which reaches Swindon, seventy seven
miles, in sighty-seven minutes. These
trains run at fifty to fifty.three miles an
hour respectively. and the last named
remains as for many years past, the

CONTROLLING Vicious HoRsEs.-
4 new and very simple method OF
training vicious horses wasexhioit-
ed in West Philadelphia recently,
and the manner in which some OF
the widest horses were subdued III
astonishing. The first trial was
that of kicking or ''bucking" mare,
which. her owner said, had allowed
no rider on her back for a period of
mt least five years. She became
gentle in about as many minutes,
and allowed herself to be ridden
about without sign of her former
wildness. The means by which the
result was accomplished consisted
of u piece of light rope. which WAS
passed around the front jaw Of the
mare. Just above the upper teeth,
crossed in her mouth and Themes
secured back of her neck. It was
claimed that no horse would kick or
jump when thus secured, and that
"bucking" horse, after receiving
the treatment a few times, will
abandon his vicious way forever.
A very simple method was also
shown by which kicking horse
could be shod. 1t consisted in CON-
Meeting the animals Aead and tail,
by means of u rope fastened to the
tail and then to the bit, and drawn
tightly enough to incline the borse's
head to one side. This. it in claim
ed, makes it absolutely impossible
for the horse to kick ON the same
side with the rope. At the same
exhibition horse which for many
years had to be bound to the grouud
to be shod, suffered the blacksmith
to operate ON him without attempt
ing to kick, while secured in the
manner above described.
