NEW YORK, November II.
The tribune contains the following edi.
torial: s.Thc. official count is SO near
over that there can no longer be a doubt
about the result. Governor Cleveland is
elected President by plurality of little
over ] 100 in vote of nearly 100000 in
this State. On the morning after election
we believed there was plurality few
hundred smaller than this ON the other
side, and were subsequently, con-
firmed in that belief by the
confident statements received by
the committees as to errors and worse in.

New York, Kings and other Counties
The Albany fraud proved to affect
only q county office, where 1t reversed
the result, and in the other cases the
boards of canvassers have made only
small reductions. In this city an ex-
aggerated idea of the number of defec-
tive ballots improperly rejected seems

when the inspectors really meant
zone defective, with thirty-six
names on it.'' Elsewhere many
still think Butler votes were counted for
Cleveland, but, with the ballots de-
stroyed, the canvassers did not establish
it. Until the New York and Brooklyn fig
ures were developed we thought there
was reason to believe that the plurality
would not go above 500 either way.
Though over double that, it is still very
small vote on which such momentous
consequences hang. We profoundly re-
greet the result, but it is the duty of every
good citizen to accept it, and to give to
the President-elect the respect the Office
demands.

THE CAUSES OF BLAINE's DEFEAT.


ST. PAUL, MINI, November 49,
| Theodore Roosevelt, of New York ,passed
through st. Paul yesterday, en- route to
his cattle ranches on the Little Missouri,
| where he will remain until the holidays.
Interviewed ON Presidential politics, he
said:
"Sorry? OF course am sorry. / sup
pose Cleveland is elected-at least, the
chances in his favor are as several to one.
My friends and myself worked hard,
earnestly and honestly for Mr.. Blaine,
and, as you'll see, we held New York city
to all that could be expected of it. We
held it, in fact, to the Garfield figures of
1907
"What caused the dcfeat?''
GA combination of untowardness. If
the Conkling wing of the Stalwarts had
been true, if Burchard's terrible allitera-
ton had not been sprung upon US SO late
in the campaign, if that soap dinner at
DelmonicO's had not come off, or If the
Prohibitionists had been as honest and
conscientious as they claimed-in brief, if
any one of these opposing factors had
been eliminated, Mr.. Blaine would have
won.o
81 am glad Roscoe Conkling-that fat
ulent pouter-pigeon in politics-is out of

worked enough even from within, dear
knows. His Stalwart followers-not the
main body of the Stalwarts, they were
true as steel-got a chance at Blaine and
used it to glorify personal animosi-
ties. COnkling is as practically dead
politically as ever. The Prohibitionists
wanted chance for revenge against the
Republicans, and took it. st. John, /
haven't havcn'ta shade of doubt, was
bought by the Democratic Committee be-
fore the campaign had waxed to heat.
Dr.. Burchard cost5us thousands of votes,
in that his utterance stopped and turned
the other way many who were tend
ing Blaineward, and would have
voted for him had the three RS not
been spoken. That second Delmonico's
dinner, although the private gentlemen
who first conceived it were honest
enough, was fatal mistake, and lost us
thousands. The Republican Central
Committee was not responsible for this
blunder. OF course was a little hard
on us in New York to nominate Mr..
Blaine at all, and am inclined to
give the New York Independents,
scientiousness. I don't know whether
Cleveland will recognize by high official
place the services the Independents
rendered him or not, but am inclined to
think so. Are they still Republicans?
That is hard question to answer, and I'll
have to give it up. They are not
very valuable to the party at any rate.
/ decline to believe that all the Independ-
ents were conservatives, however, and
need only cite one case to show they were
not. In Massachusetts the Independents,
actuated by jealousy, and in a spirit of
revenge for fancied wrongs, deliberately
defeated Henry Cabot Lodge, against
whom they could urge nothing, and for
whom almost everything good can be said;
and for whom did they vote and work?
For Loverick, a Greenbacker and an ex-
bar-keeper. If that be conscientiousness
In politics I'll have none of it,

character were perpetrated. One isthus
described: On the 9th, Lazaro, AngulO

and tied his arms together and then put
him on a horse, when he was immediate-

. ACCEPTS HIS DEFEAT.

Boston, MASS, November 49,
A special to the Herald from Augusta
says:
Mr.. Blaine regards the official count in
New York as practically settling the
Presidential question. Mr.. Blaine, it is
stated on the best authority, received this
afternoon telegram from New York an
nouncing the completion of the official
canvass of that city, and Informing him
that the plurality for Cleveland in
that State would be 1,l37. The same
authority states that Mr.. Blaine accepts
the result very cheerfully, and has no re-
grets growing out OF his connection with
the campaign. He feels that he made
good fight, and he gracefully bows to the
verdict of the American people. He
believes the Republican party will
prove true to it's grand past
and will increase in strength
with coming years. He expects that in
1888 it will be called back into power.
Mr.. Blaine leaves for Washington the
middle of next week, where he and his
family will spend the winter.
