TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.

Local elections were held on Tuesday in
most of the Western States, and though in
most cases general politics cut no figure in the
contests. it was otherwise III a few notable
cases, and the result is full Of significance.
Thus in Chicago the democrats gained Il
signal triumdh, having, III the town elections,
carried the three townships into which Chlca-
90 is divided, the South town by about 100
majority, the West town by about 100, and the
North town by 1900. In the ward elections
the democrats gained enough aldermen to re-
verse the politics Of the city council, changing
it from republican majority OF to demo
cratic majority of one. The peculiar signlii-
canoe Of the large democratic vote In the North
town is that it indicates a large detection of
the German vote from the republican side.
Through the same kind OF detection the
democrats recovered their grip on mum
clpal affairs in Milwaukee, having elected
their candidate for mayor Stowel, by $500
majority and gained enough aldermen to give
them once more control Of the CITY council,
The democrats were equally successful at
Madison, Wis., clecting their mayor by 900
majority and all the cOuncilmen but one.
But the cleauest and most significant demo
cratic sweep was in Ohio There is hardly "A
town in which politics were made an issue
where the democrats did not make heavy
gains, most notably, however, in Cleveland,
which they carried by 1900 majority Toledo,
where their majority was 1900; and Cincin-
natl, where they rolled up majority of $500.
All these cities gave republican maiorIties in
1880 and 1881.
| The cause of the revolution" in OHIO is the
recent passage of the Pond" liquor bill, re.
Iquirlng a license tax of $500 each from all sa-
looms, together with some stringent sabbatarlan
enactments of the present Legislature. These
measures were especially dlStastetul to the
Germans, who are reaching the conviction
that the tendency of the republican party
everywhere is towards sumptuary and Saba
tartan legislation while they see no attempts at
such legislation in democratic states.
| For the same reason the democrats carried
indianapolis on Tuesday, the last republican
legislature of Indiana having adopted a pro
hibitory constitutional amendment for sub
mission To vote of the people.

Britain" And to this mandatory law and
treaty stipulation Mr.. Lowell replies that Brit.
lsh law, which imprisons American citizens
on mere suspicion and keeps them there a
year without pretense of bringing them to
trial, is superior"
1t Is only within week or two that con.
gress has been able to draw from our state de-
partment the correspondence revealing this
humllatlng and disgraceiul position IN which
Minister Lowell has placed our government,
and no wonder that the revelation eXcites not
only among our citizens of Irish BIRTH but on
the part OF the general public and the press, q
united outcry OF indignation and disgust. If
American citizens have gone to Ireland and
violated the laws, it cannot be helped if they
are punished; but the men at the head OF our
government are under the most solemn obliga-
ton to see that they have a speedy trial. and
that they are not made to lie III prison for
months without trial. This imperative duty
our government, through Minister Lowell and
the state department, have most shamcfully
shirked and in the popular indignation they
have aroused they are reaping much less than
the reward which their disgraceful neglect of
duty has deserved.

The following incident is reported among
the street occurrences in Chicago a few days
ago. 1t Is so entirely characteristic of the big
hearted Judge whose name Is connected with
1t, that we have 40 doubt of its literal truth {:
Yesterday peripatetic vender of oranges In
Chicago was perambulating gocart piled
with the luscious f.ult along the muddy road
way under the shadow OF the new court house,
when careless truckman collided with and
upset the cart, spllllng its load into the mud.
AS he rapidly drove away he was chased by
the angry Italian, who deserted his property
where 1t fell. The anticipating gamins quick

Dlckey, of the State Supreme Court descend
ed the court house steps and took in the stu
alton at glance, Regardless of the mud, he
stood beside the wreck, and for at least quar-
ter OF an hour interposed the majesty of the
law and of his official presence between the
fruit and the boys, who hung like birds OF
prey about the spot, until he was relieved by
the sheriff, whom he summoned for that
purpose.

The Mormons propose TO dodge around the
Edmunds anti-polygamy bill that recently
passed congress by getting up convention,
adopting a constitution thut shall prohibit
polygamy, and then being admitted as a state,
after which they have an idea they will be al.
lowed to pass whatever laws they please on the
plural wives question that seems SO to worry
congress. To this end they held an election
In salt Lake city on Saturday and chose fl
teen delegates TO the proposed constitutional
convention, Of whom two were gentiles, two
polygamists, three women and eight monog-
amous Normons. Meantime, however, as
congress has thus far tailed to pass the usual
enabling act'' for Utah, the probabilities are
that very little attention will be paid to this
attemp; to get state organization and adj
mission under IT into the federal Union.

MINISTER LOWELL.

The mutterings of our Irish fellow citizens
against Mr.. Lowell the American minister at
the Court of ST. James, for the last six or eight
months, have at length found vigorous reltera-
ton not only in congress, but III numerous
public meetings and by the general press
throughout the country. The fact that dozen
or two very respectable Irish born naturalized
citizens of the United States, who happened
to VISIT their native country during the past
year and a halt, including such well known
men as insolvency, Walsh, O'Connor, Hart,
| McEnery and D'Alboth, had been unceremo.
suspects" and are still languishing there,
naturally awakened anxiety and indignation
| on the part of their friends in this country !;
but the general public paid little attention to
the matter, trusting that our government might
be safely trusted to do all tnat justice, treaty
stlpulations and national comfy in the case
demanded 1t was overlooked, however, that
our government is IN the hands of republicans,
with whom Irshmen are no tavorites, and that
Especially our Minister to England, Mr. Lowell,
is one OF those straight-laced purltans IN whose
| breast the OdGam GENTS was an Unborn feeling
against the Irish people. Hence instead OF
giving prompt attention to these calls upon
him to look into the cases of these imprison-
| ed American citizens in Ireland, he treated
them with entire indifference until finally re-
minded of the matter by Secretary Blaine, when
| he addressed languid note to Lord Granville,
the British Secretary tor foreign affairs, meek
ly inqulring why these gentlemen have been
| imprisoned Lord Granville replied contemp-
tuousy, referring him to the warrants for their
arrest for information. Mr.. Lowell pOcketed
the Insult, and when called upon to explain
! his inaction replies in substance that the Brit
ish law which held these men incarcerated is
superior to the American constitution and
laws and our treaty stlpulations with England
that guaranteed them protection. Now the
laws of the United States, passed in obedience
| to behest of the constitution, provide (Rev.
Stat, Sec 2OO1) that whenever any citizen of
the L. S. has unjustly been deprived of his
liberty under the authority of any foreign gov
eminent it shall be the duty of the President
forthwith to demand of that government the
reasons for such imprisonment, and If 1t ap'
pears to be wrongful the President shall
forthwith demand the release of such citizen,
and if the release SO demanded shall be un.
reasonably delayed, the President shall use
means, amounting to acts IF ,cdr, to etfectuate
the release;" and our treaty stpulations with
England provide that all British subjects
who have become or shall become, and are
naturalzed according TO law within the Uni
ted States of America as citizens thereof, shall
be held by Great Britain to be IN al respects
and for all purposes citizens OF the United
States, aud shall be treated as such by Great
