Election days have their occasional good
points; they make extra business for
printers and pool sellers, secure partial
holidays for employees of business houses
whose doors are closed on that day, stimu-
late trade in stimulants and revive tempo
rarily the kindred but almost lost arts of
stealing ash barrels and making bonfires;
on the other hand, however, they kill of
more men at short notice than yellow fever
or bad whiskey ever did. Twenty-four
hours ago nearly half the voters in the
Union pointed with pride to leaders
and standard bearers of all degrees, though
each invincible among his kind, but sadly
suggestive in the roll call this morning.
Some hundreds are wounded 80 slightly as
to be able to shout u resolute "Here !" and
secure sympathy enough to insure promo
ton at some other time, but the majority
are down among the dead men, Gin one red
burial blent." The cruelest thing about it
is that there are no funeral services; there
is not even the slight consolation of being
cared for by burial party; the only men
who are decently inferred are those
who discreetly perform the operation for
themselves. OF where the dead men are
the public know little and care less, though
the majority are good enough Catholics to
hope that most Of the fallen are in purga-
tory, where they may get rid of their nom
sense and be ready for resurrection, if
haply there be any such luck in store for
them. "Man goeth to his long home and
the mourners go about the Streets" the
mourners being those who have had
faith in the promises-of candidates, and
those who have been foolish enough to do
any political work on credit

The County Ticket.

The eclectic county ticket is successful
in its two leading names-Mr. Robert
G. Brown for Sheriff and Mr.. Will
lam A. Butler for County Clerk. Mr..
Brown was the republican nominee and
Mr.. Butler was presented by the democratic
anti-Tammany organization. Well, for
this particular occasion the people of the
county, and the Irishmen especially,
showed their sense. Judgment and liber-
atty, and religion had nothing to do
with it. Had the Irish voters gone
together. in a troop under the whip of
leader, as it has sometimes been said
they are especially disposed to go, they
could have made the record their
way. They are numerous enough
to give majority in the county
if they add their solid vote to that of other
Tammany devotees. But they did not do it.
They scattered and voted on political is
sues, not on religious views. For each Of
the two most important places on the ticket
Professionals are chosen. and religion had
nothing to do with it.

Mr.. Kelly's Humiliation.

Mr.. Kelly's vote in the city teaches him
melancholy lesson. When last year he
was running Mr.. Schell for Mayor,
under circumstances OF great difficulty
and encouragement the Tammany vote in
the city amounted to GO, 1856. That vote for
Mr.. Schell has been made by Mr.. Kelly the
basis of his political calculations in his
boiling canvass. He claimed, with an
air of great assurance. that the Tam
many vote of last year represented his
present political strength in the city.
Mr. Kelly finds that he reckoned without
his host. After a strenuous canvass
he finds that nearly one-third of
his last years followers have de-
serted him. Instead of marching at
the head of sixty thousand voters, as he
did last year, he has been able to command
but little more than two-thirds of that
number in the city. Last year the vote of
the anti-Tammany democrats was only about
twenty-eight thousand in the city this
year the anti-Tammany VOTE which is the
vote for Robinson, has risen to fifty
five or fIty-six thousand. The Kelly
people proclaimed on Mr.. Kelly's return
from his hippodromng tour through the
State that he was quite certain to receive at
least one hundred thousand votes for Gov
ernor the result shows that he has re-
ceived not more than half that number OF
votes in the city and State. Decidedly, MIR.
Kelly "comes out at the little end OF the
horn"
He probably cares less for the disappoint-
ment of his expectations in the guberna-
torial vote than for the defeat of his local
ticket. The head Of his local ticket,
Mr.. Roberts, is defeated, and Mr..
Brown, the republican candidate for
Sheriff, elected. Mr.. Gumbleton, the pnr-
ticular pet whose removal from Office for
illegal practices was the head and front of
Governor Robinson's offending, shares the
fate of Mr.. Roberts, Mr. Butler, the anti
Tammany candidate, being elected County
Clerk.
Whatever success Mr.. Kelly could have
won with any of his local candidates must
have been due to political trading.
1t could not be otherwise. IT the
three parties or factions who voted
for their three respective candidates
for Governor had fairly and honestly
supported their several local tickets

Well, this is good time for the demo-
Gratis to consider whether it is worth their
while to go on making idiots of themselves.
1t is not much of snow storm, but it is
enough to snow them under once more.
The republican majorities are not large-it
is as well for the republican lead
ers to remember that fact. In
Maine, in Ohio, in New York, in Penn
ylvania-everywher the republicans carry
elections, but with intense and exhausting
efforts, and after all by small majorities.
Their hold on the country is not secure by
any means. A strong democratic candidate
next year, on sound and honest
platform, would give them trouble. and
might defeat them. They ought to see that
their present sectional attitude and policy
are not satisfactory to the people. In spite
of their utmost efforts they have not de-
creased the number of doubtful States
this year, and they still depend upon DEM
ocratic follies to help them. To be sure,
long experience has taught them that this is
pretty sure card in their hands, and they
will probably return to Washington next
month determined to ''stir up the demo-
Gratis" again, and thus lay in store OF
campaign thunder for 1880.

calamity of this kind some one is to blame,
and in the present case the only difficulty
Will be to determine who that person is.
Reports as to the details differ widely. One
account puts all the responsibility upon the
dead engineer by the allegation that the
danger signal was set at the time of the
accident and that he failed to see 1T.
Another statement is very positively made
that the signals were the other way--that
they indicated safety at the moment
that the train rushed into the river. Fur
ther declarations are made that the signals
in use were inadequate ones and not such as
the latest improvements in railroad adj
ministration have brought into use-a
statement which if sustained puts at least
share of the responsibility directly upon
the company, though not enough to relieve
the bridgeman if it shall prove that the
signals as set by him indicated safety.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1879-11-05

Accidents such as that which occurred
yesterday on the Greenwood Lake Railroad
have been very rare within few years past.
Formerly they were Of constant occurrence
and it seemed as if open drawbridges were
regular traps set for unwary engineers. We
believe it was one of these accidents--the
exceedingly fatal one at Norwalk which
caused the enactment in the State
Of Connecticut OF the law requiring
every train to como to full stop
at every drawbridge without regard to the
state of the signals-an excellent law, which
has saved an untold number of lives. Many
other States have enacted that law, and it's
principle has been made q rule on many
railroads in States where 1t 10 not law,
and the halt at drawbridges has become q
working regulation and we believe 1t is to
this fact that the public owes the compares
tive immunity in recent years from this
particular kind of slaughter. Had the
rule been observed on the Greenwood
Lake road it would, of course, have
prevented this latest calamity. In the
reports the existence of this rule in the
regulations of that company is affirmed,
but apparently that is ON error. 1t is, how
ever, true that on some of the roads which
reach this city through New Jersey this
rule is enforced as TO certain drawbridges,
but is neglected as to the bridges
over the Hackensack River and 1t may
have been thus with this company. For q

"Thus ends the epidemic of 1879" says
q despatch from Memphis, which reports
the formation of ice in all the streets Of that
city. And at this point, therefore, begins
the preparation of the epidemic of 1880
if there is to be one. Winter may or may
not purify the city of Memphis. It did not
do this last year. Cold weather may arrest
the activity of the noxious element that is
the cpuse ofyellow fever, yet not destroy that
element. Severe cold will destroy the fever
germs in proportion as they are exposed to
it but they do not have every year at
Memphis a temperature sufficiently low to
certainly destroy these germs, and if the
temperature happens to be low enough the
likelihood that the frost can reach all the
evil elements is remote. II the coming
winter is short and mild, and no more is
done to put Memphis in good sanitary
condition thap was done last winter,
the occurrence of another epidemic
next summer is q certainty. Houses
in every part of their structure, furniture
of every sort, carpets, bedding, curtains,
sofas, chairs and the clothes Of the whole
population-all these things are intensely
infected, saturated even with this virulent
yellow fever poison. What lis the likelihood
that all these will ever be disinfected or
destroyed? In the absence of confagra-
ton which would burn the city out there
is no probability whatever OF either event.
Dsinfection, in fact. is not possible short of
destruction. and this cannot be forcibly
required of the people, while the chance
that they will come forward and volunta-
rily make bonfire oftheir personal effects is
not to be counted upon. They are mostly
poor. and the few who are rich cannot or
will not help them. Apparently Memphis
must be given over as city in which the
yellow fever has taken root in such way
that it will henceforth be permanently en-
demic there.
