MIR. Dougherty, the operator of the
Western Union, was very unjustly crti-
cised last week by Republicans because he
did not make known what passed over the
wires favorable to Blaine, There was very
little such news to tell and what there was
could have been obtained If the Republi-
cans had done as the COLUMBIAN did Mr..
Dougherty did not bring us the Lewsi We
went in and asked for news favorable to
our side. The Republicans were so chag-
rined at their defeat that they had to vent
their wrath on somebody,

The fluctuations of public feeling last
week were kept up until Friday. Every
morning the Democrats were jublant with
the news confirming Cleveland's election,
but towards evening their hopes went
down when news favorable to Blaine was
received. BY Saturday morning the DEM
ocrats felt satisfied of their success, and
swung out their flag to the breeze across
Main Street at Chairman Lowenber g's
store. The Republicans were respondent,
and generally conceded Cevelands cleo
tion, though some still cung to the hope
that there might be some reason for the
claim of the New York Tribune and Phila-
delphia Press that Blaine had plurality in
New York, No bets were paid, as it was
generally agreed that the matter could not
be positively settled until the result of the
official count was made known.

signed that only competent men Will be per
mitted TO take charge OF vessels and boats 70

A committee OF seven was appointed to make
what notifications In the existing constitu-
ton and bylaws are deomed advisable.
There is u malicious person who seems bent
on creating a sensation In this section OF the
city. Not long ago IL was stated that n man
had tried TO hang himself in Willow Tree

Michael Burke, living ON II street, between
Sixth and Seventh, had suddenly died. As Mr..
