ing OH the number of assertions he
says many are those of men who en-
list in eastern cities, and after getting
free transportation west, desert, know.
ing there will be but little effort to
bring them back or punish them.
The remedy he thinks is the better
treatment of those who stay, and
more severe punishment of deserters.
He recommends an increase of the
pay to men to S16 per month, instead
of $13 as now, and that the punish
ment for desertion be made more Sc

aggravated cases, rs is done by other
countries.
The general condition of the army
has improved, as has the general con-
dition of the country. The recent
rifle contests have made great improve
ments in craftsmanship, and he rec
ommends an appropriation for contin-
uing the work. He recommends the
adoption of some plan by which regi-
ments and officers can be given def
mite terms in remote posts and be
then allowed to return to the COM
forts of civilized life, and their places
be taken by others. He recommends
the employment of teachers for schools
at the post, saying men from the army
cannot be spared for the purpose, and
remarking as the officers, in spite of
sage advice, will marry and have fam
lilies, they ought to be provided for in
the best manner possible.

How the Tariff Question Worked in
Michigan.

Although the congressional election
in the First district had little signif-
icance in respect to the tariff question
beyond defeating the special cham
pion of that system by gentleman
whose opinions are still unknown, it
was not so in other parts of the State.
In the Second, Fourth and Seventh
districts the elections Of Democratic
congressman were distinct and unmis-
taxable triumphs of free trade prin-
ciples. In the Second Mr. Eldreidge,
the victorious Democrat, made spe-
cial issue on the tariff question with
Boies who talked protection in every
speech he made. Yaple in the Fourth
beat the Columbian orator, Burrows,
OH the same issue. Ezra Carleton in
the Seventh, never left his hardware
store in Port Huron, and didn't spend
a cent in the usual methods of cleo
pioneering. But he stood squarely on
tariff reform, and his friends through
out the Huron peninsula made the
fight on that principle. Houseman
and Winans, in the Fifth and Sixth,
stood honestly up to the free trade
State platform and were elected, but
there were other local elements in
their districts which played a more
important part in the contests. These
victories for correct economic prin-
ciples should teach the Democracy Of
Michi""n .s"t y .otate plat
eiL .snC keynote in tar
i'll reform. Let them now drop their
ancient nonsense and bourbonism,
and keep up that note alone in every
school district in the State, and we
should not be afraid to promise them

The Army.

The annual report of Gen. Sherman
was given to the public Nov. Z. 1t
is accompanied by report of the di-
vision commanders and of General
Sheridan and Inspector-General La
kett. The report shows the general
staff to consist Of 573 officers and l.
PIC enlisted men. The army proper,
consists of ten regiments of cavalry,
49, officers and $685. men, five regi-
ments of artillery, $50 officers and
2,493 men, twenty-five regiments Of
infantry, S77 officers and S,773 men,
the total, including unavailable men
detailed at various points, being 1852
officers and 23,024 men. He says
that the experience of the world
shows that but sixty-six per cent. of
an army is available for active service
and as $4,000 are really needed as a
standing army, he recommends that
the limit of the army be increased to
10000. The officers and men in the
army are now he says, overworked, and
must continue so unless the number is
increased He reviews the work of
the year somewhat in detail, arriving
at the conclusion that there has been
less number Of Indian outbreaks in
the year than at any time for twenty
years, partly due to the efficiency of
the army and partly to the advance
ment of civilization west.
The report devotes considerable
space to the growth of the West, says
that now the transition period is past
it is the duty of the government to
select certain strategic points for per-
manent army posts and to construct
comfortable buildings upon them SO
as not to compel the officers and men
to live in holes in the ground, shan
ties or green cottonwood log huts as
heretofore. There has been 1,741
trials by court-martial during the
year. He recommends a change in
the system of court-martial, saying
the present system was established by
custom in the English army a hundred
years ago, when the habit was to dine
at three o'clock, and get drunk after
dinner.

Wednesday, Noc. 10, 1882.
Elections.

The result of the elections n week
ago Yesterday surpassed by a good
deal the brightest anticipations Of the
most sanguine Democrat. AS the re-
turns came in it was seen that regu-
lar political deluge had occurred. 1t
was wet day for Republicans but a
glorious one for the people. 1t was a
grand victory for the people, and will
do a great deal to purify the pestilen-
tial political atmosphere that had
gathered at Washington. The oppo-
sition defeated the Republicans in
Michigan, in Kansas, in Colorado, in
Pennsylvania, in New York, in Mas
sachusetts and in Connecticut, and
they made great gains in every other
northern State. New Hampshire is
close, the latest returns giving the Re-
publicans only $50 majority. The
House of Representatives will have a
Democratic majority of over sixty.
The Senate will stand 36 Democrats,
80 Republicans, and two Reputation
lists from Virginia. The Democrats
gain one Senator from Louisiana, in
place of Senator Kellogg, and they
loose one in Oregon and one in Vir-
ginia. In New Jersey and the south
ern States, where Senators are to be
chosen, they hold their own.
The result in Michigan is very graf
flying. The union forces elect Begole,
for Governor, by a majority of 5000,
and six Congressman. The State
Legislature will stand, on joint ballot,
Republicans ~, opposition 60, Repub-
can majority II.
The Democrats elect 80 Congress
men in the northern States, and the
Republicans elect 10 Congressman in
the southern States.
General Buffers majority in Mas
sachusetts is 1922. Grover Cleve-
land sweeps New York State by 2OO,-
600 majority. The Democratic ma
jority in Pennsylvania is $3.50.
In Kansas the Democratic nominee
for Governor received 5000 majority.
In Colorado the majority of the Dem
ocratic Governor is $500. Indiana
goes Democratic by 10000 majority;
California Democratic by 5000, and
Nevada by 1000 majority.

From the above il will be seen that there were
li3 votes less cast in 1852 than in 1880. This is
partly accounted for by the separation of Montmo-
rency county from Alpena county, and partly to
lack of interest in the election In the city of AL

1880 In the townships the vote cast this year was
81 less than in. 1880.
