Fun Ahesd.

All along from the time Of the meet
ing of the republican convention at
Chicago, the democratic press and or
ators have been telling us OF the jeal-
ousies and conflicting interests Of dit
ferent elements of the republican party
These things were going to work Its
defeat; one set of men were not going
TO work with any degree of earnestness
for the success of the ticket because
their favorite had not been chosen as
the leader of the party. another set
were not going to work because they
had been j gnored IN the councils of
the party, and SO on and so forth. But
the campais sn wen. to its close and re-
suited in an overwhelming victory for
the republicans. ard it now develops
that the chickering's and inimical inter-
ests belong to the democracy. The
western and southern members express
themselves freely on the course of
Speaker Randall and other northern
democrats regarding the tariff question
declaring that the action of the democ-
Tacy this winter must be in accordance
with the predomlnating idea in the par
y-iree trade-insiSung that if they
had met the question fairly and boldly
upon the stump and through the dem
ocratic press, that the party would
not now be placed III such humiliat-
position; while Speaker Randall SAYS
if they wish to make the experiment
they can do it, but so far as he it con-
cerncd he will stand By his record as a
protectionist, and look after the inter-
ests OF his own great state; insisting
that legislation based upon free
trade platform, will besaddins to the
already many blunders of the party.
From the criminanons and recr,mina-
lions already INDUCED in, and the d.
rersi;y Of opinion regarding the prop
eg course to pursue this winter, ii is
fax TO suppose that there viii be lively
times when the democratic caucus
meets to lay out 4 plan OF work for the
aeSt session of congress. Look out.
