Hon. W. s. Maxwell is elected by 2a7
majority. All the county ticket is
elected. with the exception Of II. f.
Rohlfng for Clerk of the Court. John
A. Gallaghan, his Democratic comDet-
itor. is elected by Gls majority. Mr..
Gallaghan has proved very efficient
officer. is popular with the bar, and is
widely known. This no doubt contrib
uted to his election. Many Republi-
cans sacrificed party predictions to
personal preferences, and voted for
Mr.. Gallaghan. Considering the al
most superhumaa exertions put forth
by the Democratic nominee for Sheriff
and his friends, Republicans can con-
graduate themselves on the election Of
Mr.. Blackman even by small major
ity. Mr.. Dexter has a large connec-
ton, all Republicans, and all worked

that Mr.. BIackman's administration

THE FARMERS ALLIANCE.

On Thursday, Oct. IA, some four
hundred delegates from all parts of
the nation met in convention in Far
well Hall, Chicago, to discuss the ques-
ton of national control of inter. state
railway communication, for the pur-
pose Of securing low rates of freight
in the interests of producers and con-
sumers. The convention was brought
about by the unremitting labors of the
Western Rural, Of Chicago.
Among the evils that hinder the
progress Of the country is the combi-
nation Of lines Of railroad which ought
to be competitive. A natural and
healthy competition would reduce
freights to the lowest profitable point
Now the railway companies pool their
earnings, and levy on producers such
high rates Of freight that the profits OF
producers are all absorbed by the com.
panies.
The convention organized a National
Farmers Alliance, the object of which
is to secure national legislation favor.
able to securing the lowest possible
rates of freight consistent with justice
to all.

GLORY ENOUGH FOR NOVEMBER.


The results of the election are most
gratifying, and call forth the heartfelt
gratitude OF every Republican and
every patriotic citizen OF the United
States. The people instinctiyely real
lied the danger that menaced the ex
istence of the nation by the attempt Of
the party, who fought four years to
destroy it, to obtain control of the gov
eminent. The evidence was over
whelming that the Solid South, by
their own confession, were fighting for
the same principles for which Lee and
jackson fought, and were fighting to
win. They were fighting again for the
right Of q state to secede; to destroy
the Union to establish slavery; to de-
stroy liberty, and tC undo all the re-
snlts secured by the awful sacrifice Of
a half million precious lives and treas
We beyond count This was the great
danger that menaced the peace and
perpetuity of the nation. With the
instinct of self-preservation, the loyal
millions arose in their might and again
saved us a nation. The battle for
freedom and Union is wor again. Ma
fional Sovereignty is victorious. Give
thanks for the loyalty and courage of
The people Thank God for victory.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1880-11-05

From 1851 to 1865 we saved a NATION
for the North, and equally for the
South, by the sacrifice of a half million
az precious lives. We have saved It
for them every four years since by
keeping the government in control OF
men who loved their country and were
loyal to it. In 1880 we have saved il
the fifth time in a victory at the ballot
box unprecedented in the history of
our country. Will the Solid South
BOW lay down their weapons and enjoy
in peace the blessings of a free govern
ment, or will they keep on fighting for
the same principles for which Lee and
Jackson fought until God sweeps them
into hell?

represents party that used to be
above such men and such things, stands
before the American people convicted
of printing and circulating a forged
letter, purporting to be written by a
candidate for the Presidency. Had
Barnum possessed even the crudities
of decency or honor, lie would before
giving it to the public have assured
himself of the genuineness or falsity
of this letter. But " fly-gobbler" that
he is, ne jumped at it as just suited to
his mean purposes. Let us hope as
Americans, loving liberty, our nation
al honor. preserving the high charac-
ter of this people, that this Democratic
campaign will be buried in history's
darkest pages; may it never be thought
OF or spoken of again. At the begin
ing of the campaign, General Hancock
was anxious that Senator Wallace, of
Pennsylvania, should have charge of
the Democratic campaign. Other in
terests prevailed. But General Han
cock was right. He has been stabbed
in the house of his friend.
The Census Bureau has now a large
force of clerks at work on the popula-
ton tables of the census just taken. It
is the hope before the adjournment of
Congress to arrive at the population of
all the larger cities, but there is no
probability that Congress at it's fourth
session will fix the apportionment I'M
der the new session, for the reason
that it would hardly have time.

OUR WASHINGTON LETT Frs.
From our Regular Correspondents.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 20, lss

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 20, 1880.
Mr.. VIM. H. Barnum, chairman of
the Democratic National Committee,
will 60 down in history as the cham
pion fly gobbler" of the country. His
management Of the Democratic cam
paign has cost the Democrats more
votes, or as many as the arguments Of
Republican orators. The reasons for
his elevation to his present damaging
position are and probably will forever
remain a secret. But we suppose it
was in reward for services in the
mule" business in 1915. Mr.. Bar
NUNS policy has been one of vile SLAM
der and gasconade. No prominent Re-
publican, however high his character,
has escaped attack from this prince of
maligners. The documents issued by
the committee under him have been,
Without exception, personal attacks.
In fact, it has seemed impossible for
Mr.. Barnum to do or say anything that
would entitle him to respect as man
Of sound sense. The good of the peo-
pie, and the influence of this Demo-
cratic campaign Of SANDER upon them,
does not enter into the calculations of
Mr.. Barnum. From his standpoint he
would have us believe them of char
acter and kind best led and influenced
by vileness and falsehood. 1t is need
less to point to the high order of the
Republican campaign; every Republic
can is proud Of it, and the American
people will look back upon it in years
to ceme with feelings of gratitude for
the party that conducted it. To the
substantial arguments put forth, Mr..
Barnum, in behalf Of the Democrats,
has attempted many replies, but all
have one burden-accusation. After
the Indiana election, in order to break
the force Of that Democratic disaster,
he charged all manner of fraud upon
the Republican leaders, forgetting that
If the Democrats of Indiana were
bought out, they must have sold to
those who bought them. The silly
charge Of Republican colonization of
Florida, q state where native Republi-
cans are, hardly allowed to vote, was
based upon misrepresentation of sto-
len kilograms, and was lie upon the
face Of it. The browning scene in this
long. disgusting carnival of Democrat
ic calumny is the publication of the
forged Chinese letter." and Barnum,

ITO the Editor Of the TELEGRAPH.l
SIR,-It would be impossible to
square the fine example of moderation
contained in Mr.. Allan Curr's letter of
the 22nd inst. with the boastful ex-
travagance that marked his attack on
Mr.. Charles Bradlaugh. His onslaught
was violent, resolute, and well defined !:
his letter is gentle, pusilanimous, and
specious. He evades the issue by as
Stunning that the "ample documentary
and other evidence" which he tells us
is in his possession" contains some
thing the publication of which would
"serve no good purpose" He is adj
vised to do this by "the Rev. Richard
Miller and Others" Sir, I apprehend
that no good purpose can be served by
q minister of religion grossly misrepre-
senting and maligning man who has
the reputation of saying what he
thinks, and is numbered with the great
mass of humanity who do not allow
the intellectual impostures of a pre-
sumptuous priesthood to usurp the
place Of reason. Mr.. Allan Curr's pur-
pose would, think, have been better
served if the Rev. Richard Miller had
advised strict adherence to truth, less
personal vanity, not too familiar men
ton OF public men, and greater regard
for the Office he holds; all of which.
Mr.. Editor, would have been compat-
IDLE with the character of a gentleman
who had entranced London audiences
and won from the London press notices
of his ability couched IN the most
eulogistic terms. When Mr.. Curr says
no good purpose would be served by
proving his charges, it must not be for
gotten that in his lecture he said he
had exposed" Mr.. Bradlaugh in the
newspapers published in the city of
Baltimore. Was any good purpose
served then,and, if yes, why may not the
same yood purpose be served now /?
The exposure at Baltimore was very
evidently based on " the ample docu-
mentary and other evidence which
Mr.. Curr preserves, as he now inti-
