The election returns as published
in the Oregonian only confuse per-
son who desir es to arrive at some
conclusion as to the result. Nobody
yet knows how New York has gone
which is the pivot upon which the
election turns. There is, we fear,
an effort to doctor the result to suit
Garfield, and hence the "loyal"
telegraph has been claiming such
large majorities which have finally
dwindled down till it will require
the official count to declare the re.
suit. Wait patiently, and in good
time we will know the best or the
worst.

We are waiting, calmly waiting,
Just outside the open door,
And our hearts are almost breaking.
With an anguish sad and sore.
Why this halting on our journey?
Why this horrible delay?
Are we waiting, only waiting,
To he turned at last away
we are moving yes we're moving,
Right beyond that open door
Tell us, is that sacred portal
Closed to us forever more?
Down, o hateful thought obtruding,
Let it never haunt us more;

For the opening of the door.

There will be time enough here.
after to discuss the causes of the
overwhelming victory Of the re.
publicans. 1t is plain, however,
that the country does not fancy
the "Solid South,n aud that it does
not admire the lack of brains aud
of principles for which the demo
cratic canvass was chiefly consplc-
uous.
To these general reasons must
be added this, that the American
people. who are like all free people
conservative, and properly so, were
inclined to let we'll enough alone.
They saw no sufficient reasons for
"A change in administration. The
democrats asserted that there were
such reasons; but the vote shows
that they were not able TO convince
the people. 1t would not, perhaps,
be incorrect to say that they might
have convinced the voters had they
taken the right way. They had
popular platform, but they forgot
ali about it until in the last weeks
OF the canvass, and then they split
it up tor kindliug wood.
