France, who stands back from motives of
jealousy Us Ia the effect English supTem-

however, at the outset of the struggle

of the war, the latter cannot now lie ex-
pected to take French interests into very

reply that France has sufficient

A NICE COUNTRY.

We have heard of good place for
those who are dissatisfied with the way
things are run IN this cpuntry-a place
where there are no political bosses and
rings and no assessments on office hold
ers. This fine condition of things ex-
lists In Switzerland. The president of
that republic cannot run a machine.
He cannot make appointments nor re-
move from office. The members of the
cabinet cannot work their relatives into
office. No one loses an Office under the
government for political reasons. All
the executive acts are those of the cabi-
net, In which the majority rules. The
president gets $2.7O0 per annum aud
the cabinet officers $2,400. The total
expense OF running the government last
year was $S.00O,O 600, and there is no
better mail or telegraph service in the
world than these mountaineers have.
The Swiss have the ld-fashioned idea
of running the government ON business
principles. We can spare good many
Democratic voters between now and
1884 If they should desire to go there.

COLONEL RoR,s REASONS.
Robert G. InRers0lI Evolves n List of
Reasons for the Great Political

Reaction.
DETROIT, Nov. 6.-Returns up to
noon do not materially alter the situa-
ton. AS noted last night the Second
district is claimed by the Democracy by
five hundred, but not conceded, The
Fifth district is Democratic beyond
doubt. The remaining eight districts
are probably Republican, although two
or three are close. There is no doubt
but that Governor Jerome Is defeated,
but the rest of the Republican ticket is
elected.
Col. Robert G. Ingersoll. who leciui es
here tonight, was interviewed this al
ternoon AS To his views on the political
situation, and IN answer to the question,
what caused The great political reaction,
SAID:
First. Extravagant appropriation.
g Refusal To reduce taxation. At
least $75 600 900 should have been taken
lrom the burdens borne by the people.
$20,O00,000 should have been taken
from sugar, and the entire tax from to-
bacco. The Republican party should
have taken such steps that all internal
taxation could IN one year from now be
abolished. The people are tired of pay
ing war taxes in time of peace. They
and all sorts of detectives and spies dis
charged.
3 The Republicans should not have
postponed the tariff reform, aud the
tariff commission was u mistake. The
people saw 1T was only an affidavit for
the continuance of ruse for delay, and
that the Republican party WAS not GO
ing to act.
4. Prominent Republicans have been
trying 10 kill each other, and the great
struggle has been for office. We have
too many politicians and not enough
statesmen. The fight against Cornell
was unfortunate Pennsylvania was
tired of Cameron rule, and everywhere
there seems to haYe been hatred and dis
gust.
what will be the effect upon the
presidential contest in 1SS4g" asked the
reporter in the interview.
1t looks to me now that Gen. SheF.
man will be the next president. The Re

a man rs Gen. Sherman, and Sherman
