AND NOW TO BUSINESS.

The election is over and all are
glad of it. A large majority of the
American people are satisfied with
the result. A large majority are
pleased over it. Aye mere, q large
majority are rejoiced over it. The
really dissatisfied are few and far

er. A few blind, hideAbound
politicians are sullen and morose,
ready to go into any sort of mis-
chief, not caring a copper for the
peace and welfare of the country,
but their numbers are smaller and
their influence still less. They can
retire to their dens and whine and
snarl, show their teeth and growl,
but they are powerless and harmless,
and will soon pass into a richly mer>
tied oblivion.
The masses of the people, now
that they have confidence in the flu
ture steadfastness of the govern
ment, now that they are convinced
that the country is free from all
danger coming from wild expert
ments with crazy financial theories,
now that there is to be no change
in policy that has brought unheard
of prosperity to the country, will 60

It is safe to say that, with the COM
meucement Of congress, Investigations
will be kicked out of public business,
unless they come on grave information
such as congress, for its own digni-
ty's sake, must look into; out newspa-
per items from Anonymous people. and
particularly from the set OF jsckals
who have invest d congress for the
past eight years, are not t. be the coca
sion for any more investigations.
The country is willing that this
state of affairs should prevail. The
congress. of the United States has 6
higher duty to~nerfor than the ap'
pointment of smelling committees
whose duties have been to prov
around the sewers and outhouses o

and corruption. In this way hun

money has..been spent and the coun

better and more digni6ed work t

Fighting, Against the Logic O
Events
Charleston News and Courier.

Since the confederate war ended
the national democratic party has
been fighting against the logic of
events. It has been party of OBJ
struction and negaion. We grant
that it has made some progress. The
political legislation based upon the
constitutional amendments is no
longer branded as unconstitutional,
revolutionary and void, and, to this
extent, the democracy have bowed
to the inevitable. But the bow
ing came too late. The attitude
of opposition was held so long as it
could do the party harm, and the

change of front, when it tardily
came, did the party no good. On
other important questions, the party
did not know its own mind. How
can intelligent and reasoning people
pin their faith to q party which con-
strues the simplest declaration of its
platform so as to fit antagonistic and
contradictory views, and which is
ready to nominate to the highest
Office in the country just those per-
sons who have most bitterly opposed
the party, or who know least
of the practical work of
government. Such tricks are
soon seen through. A political
party which cares for nothing but
immediate success is on the broad
road to ruin. It must be so. The
political masses do not move readily
or quickly. They can not face
about with the ease of the trained
political manipulation, and when the
new conflict begins part of the po-
litical forces are still travelling on
the old road, while others, confused
and demoralized, lay down their
arms, or silently await developments.
The national democratic party has
been untrue to itself. This is The
secret of its undoing. -.. e--.
