From the very commencement the Demo-

The result has shown how unwise il is to
conduct a campaign on such basis and now
that ii is over the comments of the opposi-

That which two months ago was viewed

eral Garfield is elected President of the

The result is to place at the head of our
Government the ablest man in all respects

intellectual stamina equal to that of Lincoln
With culture and requirements equal to those
of the younger Adams, since whom Garfield

The New York World Of THURSDAY
morning sends the following out 10 its dem
ocraiic readers General Garfield will be
chosen President Of the United States hy
the electoral vote OF this State and this
vote he will receive only in consequence OF
a disastrous and unexpected falling of in
the Democratic malorities Of Brooklyn and
Of this city. That this falling off vas the
result of causes quite outside Of the national
oonies; Is absolutely certain. The vote o.
New York State will be given 10 General
Garfield, no, because General Garfield is the
choice Of q majority OF the voters Of New
York, but because. not for the frat time in
the history Of our municipal parties, local
and personal interests have been preferred
TO the general welfare Of the party and Of
the country.
Mr.. Tweed. for example. gave this State

city Democracy his candidacy for a rejection

entire county ticket and Legislature were
sacrificed. New York has secured Demo
cratic city government. which is so far a
good thing. but il remains TO be seen wheth-
er New York could not have secured this a,
less cost than that Of the IS electoral
votes which, added to l3s from the South.

to mention California, and Oregon, would

HENRY WATEgsoN is responsible TOR the
Democratic defeat. Samuel J. Tilden is
responsible for it. John Kelly is the man
TO blame. Chairman Barnum'. stupidity
caused the whole thing. Wade Hampton
gave the campaign away in his notorious
Virginia speech. William II. English was
too mean for anything. Plais,ed and the
pewter dollar wrought the harm.-These
are some Of the many excuses urged by the
Democracy to account for their disaster
Not one Of them is right. No one man
should be held to account for the result.
II was not Tilden, nor Kelly, nor Wa,,erson,
nor Rarpum that elected Garfield
The thing that achieved Democratic deiea,
and Republican victory was distrust Of the
Democratic party. Doubtless the Democrat
ie leaders might have conducted the cam
paign more shrewdly. 1t is certain that the
Morey forgery disgusted honest and intelli-
gent men. But the real cause Of complaint
was against the Democracy. The candi-
dates were both good, and their merits had
little to do with determining the ISSUE 1t

and the Republican party won.-Poniand

New York Tribune Under the gallant
leadership Of James G. Blaine, Maine has
redeemed herself and has come back TO her
old place in the column Of Republican
States. The unprincipled Fusion move
ment had short-lived triumph. Ii was
poweriess to resist the sweep Of the Re
publican National canvass The partial
Republican reverse last September served To
encourage the Democrats throughout the
country, but no sane man outside of the
World office believed for q moment tina,
Maine would give her electoral vote To
Hancock. In the National fight she was
sure TO go as she has always gone-with the
party to which she gave Vice President in
1850, and to which she has given the mos,
inspiring Of popular leaders. No man in
public life behaved more handsomely after
Chicago than Blaine; no man Gid more. and
al greater sacrifices, for the contes, in the
critical October States, and no man better
deserves the triumph Of reeonquering has
State. The whole country will rejoice that
Blaine is again all right.
