Of excitement over the close election of

character that is far removed
from anything riotous. The in
dividual citizen realizes to the
full that the safety of republican ins'i-
tutions depends on the honest expression
of the people at the polls, and he is con-
tent with that verdict when it is
honestly recorded.
THE very latest returns show that both
Cleveland and Blaine are elected.
BLAINE's entering wedge iu the solid
South was too blunt for use on Tuesday.
In North Carolina the returns we're very
suggestive Of a jug handle they were all
on the Democratic side, too.
PERHAPS the Men Era bitter opponent
of ex sheriffs, may vet write in terms Of
laudation OF President Cleveland.
New YORK will be slightly different
state on which TO try the Florida and
Louisiana tactics of eight years ago.
WHILE everyone is more or less excited
about election news, the fact should not
escape notice that sixty four electric lights
failed to burn last evening.
MAnoNE received plenty of Republican
"sinews Of war" to carry Virginia and
the Old Dominior answered with a Demo
cratic majority of from s, 900 to l2, 1000.
IT looks as though the occupation of the
Associated Press, an institution r-1vy

Put away the cape and torches that our ps.

They will need them not up Salt River, where

ONE Of the big benefciariss OF the great

When men like Kellogg are relegated to
private life the most partisan Democrats
and Republicans may swing their hats for
iNy in company.
The Philadelphia Press published a
table of majorities by counties in New
York that claims a plurality for Blaine in
that state of OIL. When the figures are
investigated it is seen that they really

OF their own mouths are they condemned.
THERE is doctor up in Montreal who
has been giving evidence in the case of
Harold De Wolfe, of New York, for a

alcoholic mania" In the course of his
testimony he asserted that the greater
number of mankind are crazy and held
that great many criminals confined in
prison should not be there at all, but

MADAME JANAusgaEK is an actress of
considerable ability, but her temper DOS
sesses some frictlonsl elements. Not long
since she bitterly assailed the New York
Herald for severe criticism Of new play
in which she had appeared, and thers was
probably some ground for her structures,
But she seems to enjoy her perpetual i'm
mersion In hot water. She is now having
some difficulty with one OF her actresses,
Miss Ida Jefreys, on the question of sal
ary. She declines to give her the
originally agreed upon on the ground
that her acting does not come up to ex
pectations. This is very nice question
to decide, for IL seems an essenally relative
one. Acting that may please one critic
might be deemed missrably lams by
others. II 1t were not for the fact that q
jury of experts usually prove themselves
expert only in drawing jury fees, IL might
be we'll for twelve experienced actors to
sit upon this question.
