CAPITAL NOTES.

cans here are much more cheerful
than mig hit be expected Democrats
are not specially jubilant, and ev'
IDENTIFY feel that their triumph is but
temporary and unlmportant. The
returns IL this state clearly demon
strate that the result of the late cleo
ton was produced by failure of
Republicans to vote and not to a
change among the people from the
Republican to the Democratic party
In the 3D. congressional district this
is particularly apparent. In the
counties comprising this district, the
yote for Hancock in 1880 was Ia
SJ3; the vote for Jones this year
was about 2,50O-only about 1890
less than the full vote of the party.
The vote for Garfield in the district
was 1857, while the vote for Hazel
ton, Reyes and Hastings combined
this year is not over $4,000, or about
$500 less than the full Republican
vote. No one studying these fig.
ures will doubt the redemption Of
the district in 1884; even should the
Prohibitionists maintain their pres
ent strength and attitude, which is
not considered probable
Work on the Capitol extension is
suspended for the season. Full y az
much progress has been made as was
hoped for, and enough to justify n
confidence that the building will be
completed in 1883.
OF course State officials are con
graduating themselves on the adop-
tion Of the constitutional amendment
extending their term one year. To
the people, however, it is of far
greater benefit, in the saving of the
expense and trouble of an election
every other year, which is estlmat
ed at not less than 100000.
Republicans manifest less disap-
pointment at the result of the elec-
ton than Prohibitionists. To the
latter as political party it is a fatal
blow, and by it the submission of
their proposition is postponed indef-
inilely. Their vote in the State is,
in proportion to the increased aggre-
gate, probably less than year ago,
and the Democratic majority in the
Assembly is surety that their Pro
hibitory amendment will not pass
that body The election Of Gunther
and the defeat Of Williams and Butt,
the former pronounced in antago-
nism to the prohibitory theory, while
the two latter are known to be in
sympathy and practice good temper
ance men-are circumstances which
the impracticable fanatics do not
contemplate with pleasure. In their
efforts to defeat the Republican par
ty they have been successful where
they had nothing to gain by success,
and unsuccessful where success was
most desired. They have demon
strated that they can do nothing of
themselves; even their ability to
defeat the Republican party, when
united, is not apparent. Hereafter
we hope, and expect to see the Re
publican party disregard them en-
tircIy, and in a few years all those
faithful consistent temperance men
who have been led astray by The few
impractical fanatics and sorehead:
will see the folly of their way, as
surely as did those misguided mei
who rode the grcenback and grang
er hobbies until they found them
selves being carried into the Demo
cratic camp. w.u.H.

IT would be interesting to know
what the twenty-five delegates who
met at Dodgeville and urged Hazel
ton not to withdraw, now think about
it Wonder if they now believe the
people were hungry to vote for him
above all others, and whether they
now contend he is stronger with
the party in Grant, Iowa and Lafay-
cite, than ever before"

The Milwaukee Republican pertly
remarks, "As the returns come In 1t
seems more and more certain that
Republicans will have little if any
thing to be thankful for on the day

treats in a political sense But the
question arises, has the country any
thing to be thankful for?

TIN emotions of the Kentucky
Democrats are thus described by the
Confessional: "Ihe figures look
to Democratic eyes like a succession
OF capital prizes in the Royal Haya-
ma Lottery. They remind one of
the sacks of untold millions dropped
from Greenland in coyerlets and
pilowslips, One feels like asking
his noighbor to pull his ear, or kick
him. The thing does not seem real.
In the meantime, remembering what
the governor Of North Carolina once
observed to the governor of Soath
Carolina, let Democrats everywhere
have their fling and love one another,
and beam upon the world and the
rest of mankind"

Ir is said that the Republican
State Committee of New York has
made another call on the Federal
employees in that State for contrlbu-
TINS toward he expenses of the re-
cent campaign. AS the Democrats
have profited by the mastery cam
palgn of the Committee, it would be
only fair TO wait until Cleveland
makes his appointments and then
call on the new employees of the
State for the funds.

IF the men who have heretofore
been Republicans, Int who this year
voted for Prohibition candidates for
Congress, had cast their votes for
Williams in the First, and Butt in
the Seventh District, they would
have elected two members of Con
eress who are teetotalers so far as
drinking liquor is concerned and
who would have represented their
political sentiments. BY voting for
Prohibition candidates they accom-
plished nothing for the cause of tenn
perance and they elected two Demo

Meat Eating,

A correspondent of the Hartford COnr-
ant is moved, by the high price of beef,
to write to that paper as follows:
We eat too maclrmeat for our health.
This is the first and most important
question to be considered, and this is
good time to consider the question of
much meat eating in connection with
economy, and careful frugality.
The writer is aware that the opinion
is quite prevalent among many people,
especially the lrbOring class, that a meat
diet is more invigOrating and nutritious
than vegetable diet, and that labor
ing man cannot be sustained without
large proportion of meat, which should
be used two or three times day. From
his own experience, reading and Obser-
walton the writer believes that persons
in an ordinary condition of health,
whether they be labOring, or more seden-
tary persons, would best promote their
health by using meat not more than
once day. And more than that, as be-
tween consuming so large a proportion
of animal food as we Americans habitu-
ally do, and living exclusively upon
vegetable diet, the latter would better
promote health, power of endurance,a and
longevity. The japanese, Chinese, Hin
| docs, Burmese. and many others OF the
eastern countries, numbering hundreds
| of milliOns-mOre than half the lnhaDl-
| tants of the whole wOrld-live almost
exclusively upon vegetable food, mostly
| rice. and travellers inform us that they
enjoy as good health, and have as much
endurance as ipeOple Of other nations
who use large quantities of animal food.
| A Japanese will trOt all day drawing
one person IN his jinrickisha, resting at
| intervals, without much fatigue.
We come now to consider the relative
cost of meat and a vegetable diet. The
following, derived from chemical analy-
sis. as stated in the encyclopedia, shows
the relative proportions of nutrius mat
ter contained in some of the common
| articles of fool.
