THE xAJoRITY AND TIE MTNORITY.

Mr.. Blaine, in his Augusta Seeding
speech, makes subject of compliant that
the result of the recent election brings a
minority into power and subjects the ma
jority to its rule, says the St. Lonis Repu5
ACau:
Even if this were true, it comes with an
in grace from the chosen leader of par>
ty which, though minority party, has
governed the country for twenty four
years The popular vote for Abraham
Lincoln, the first republican president, in
1860, was $3.50, 900, and against him, ?,
S00,000-therc being an excess Of nearly
100000 votes against him. In the three
elections next following there was no full
poll Of the popular vote. As the New
York Tri6un5 says: On 1864 and 1868
some states were not counted, and in
some other states democratic votes were
disfranchiscd. In 1872 there was no dem,
oCratic candidate
In 1876 there was the first fair and full
poll of the popular vote that had been seen
since 1SG0-and the result was demo
cratic majority for Tildcn of $4,000 At
the next election in 1880, Garfield,
though chosen president was chosen by
a minority-the popular vote being, for
Garfield, 4,44s $50; against him Qor Han
cock, Weaver and others, 4,761 900
excess against him Of 31S,0 $50.
1t is not an unusual thing, therefore,
for the government of the United States
to be administered by a minority: the en-
tire history of Mr.. Blaine's party is his
tory of minority rule The state and
congressional elections of 1889, which
gave the house of representatives to the
democrats and showed twenty five of the
thirty eight states with democratic goy~
errors, made it clear that the country was
democratic, and that the dominant repubo
lican party was minority of the people.
And it is so at this day Mr. Blaine S
assertion that the government is about to
pass into the hands of a minority is not
true. When the returns of the late pres
idential election shall have been all
counted, it will be found that Cleveland
received majority of the popular votes,
as he will receive a majority of the cleo
toral votes, and that Mr. Blaine has no
warrant whatever for attitudinizing be-
fore the world as the wronged representa-
tive of u majority. The majority is
against him. The people have come to
their own at last. A minority regime is
about to come to an end, and the real ma
jority will take its rightful place.

OLD SOLDIERS MEET AND RECOUNT

the Taps in New

New YORK, Nov 26-Tho Star is respon

Tuesday when it is known that duel is on
the taps, this time between Capt. Tom Cos
tello, the intrepid Irishman, who has always
held his mother country at heart, and Il
dashing gentleman who won his spurs by
desperate displays Of valor iii the
Confederate army. The story reads like a
romance of the old French 'cloak and dag
ger" school. It appears that Monday, in a
well known hotel, Costello, with several
friends, met the southern officer. Being old
warriors, although upon different sides in the
contest of twenty years ago, they talked
over their old battles. The southcrGer
recited tales Of valor which would have put
Baron Munchausen to the blush. Suddenly

Our Candidate for Con-
greSS.
He is in favor of Protection
Protection to the Farmer. the
Mechanic, the Laboring Man,
but not to Monopolies.

Hon. J. II. Cultivate. our can
didate for Congress, visited Hook
ing county on last Saturday, and
made speech at Enterprise at
the pole raising in the afternoon,
and addressed the Club at SIish-
ers Hall. in the evening.
He is an eloquent speaker and
commanded the closest attention
from the large audiences at both
meetings.
He planted himself squarely
upon the Democratic idea of Pro-
lection. Protection to our Amer
lean Industries-Protection to
the American Wool Growers
Protection to our Manufactures,
and above all, Protection TO our
American Laborers.
He is not as the Democratic
party is not in favor OF system
of protection that makes rich men
richer at the expense of the peo-
pie. He is opposed to a specie
protection that favors foreign
capital and robs native labor
He is opposed to plan of pro
lection that introduces pauper
laborers into the mines and fur
naces, protected by The armed
detectives Of a Chicago merce-
nary agency.
He is opposed TO the protection
of the Republican party. He is
opposed to the protection the
wolf gives to The lamb. But he
is in favor Of protection that
protects our industries against
the gigantic corporations OF Eng
land, ard our laboring men
against the paupers of Europe.
Mr.. Cultivate made a very ex
ceIleni impression upon all who
met and heard him. He is "a
