CURED, ard happened to be so dis.
tributed as to produce an unexpect-
ed revolution.
When it is remembered that a
change of 600 votes in New York
from Cleveland to Blaine would
have involved Democratic defeat
and probably another quarter CEN
fury Of Republican supremacy, it is
easy to assign any one Of half a doz-
en- causes to account for the result.
But back of all transient and obvi-
Gus reasons for the change lies one
which is fundamental and which
the American people can only lose
sight Of at their peril. Democratic
success has only been rendered
possible by the most colossal politi-
cal crime of The century. Through
the constitutional enfranchisement
of the freedmen the Southern
States are given 153 votes out of
the necessary pol in the electoral
college and a proportionate strength
in Congress. By the systemat.
ic, notorious and criminal disfran-
chisement Of colored voters these
same Southern States are enabled
to produce solidly Democratic
South and thus load the dice
against the Republicans in the ma.
tional game for supremacy. The
negroes are nominally given the
ballot to enlarge the basis of south
ern representation in Congress and
the electoral college; they are in
/ fact deprived of the ballot in order
to make that increased southern
representation exclusively Demo.

other products in proportion. more

increasing it from 81 600, 100000 to So,

good prices the current production of
the agriculture of the United States can
be little short of $4,000, 600, 900, and the
values are those of the home markets,

The 0yershadowing Reason.

Minneapolis Tribune: On March
4, 1861, amid the opening thrones
of civil war which itself had want.
only precipitated, the Democratic
party relinqulshed executive control
of the Federal Government. On
March 4, 1885, practically quarter
ola century from the date Of its
overthrow, that party will return to
power, through the Inauguration of
Grover Cleveland of New York as
President, in the midst of profound
peace. The official count is CON-
pleted, and it fairly shows that the
great pivotal commonwealth which
Mr.. Cleveland carried two years
ago by $4,000 majority, he has
now carried BY a minority vote and
by plurality over Blaine Of barely
a thousand ballots. Grover Cleve-
land is President-eleot. of the United
States, and not one citizen of the
Republic hesitates to recognize and
except.the fact, now that it IS au-
chemically ascertained. All appre.
hension that there was to be pro.
longed and perilious controversy
over the presidential succession,
with resultant paralysis Of business
and menace to the public peace, is
instantly swept away by The edict
Of universal acquiescence which the
American people with absolute un-
animity hare sent forth. The
country has already recovered from
its first and most serious shock, and
as far as concerns material inter.
ests will glide from one administra.
ton to another without preceptible
disturbance certainly without
commercial disaster.
The Republican party Is not over,
thrown. It IS not even placed in q

WASHINGTON LETTER.

w aSnlngtOn. NOV. zoJn 1904.
Now that the dust ofthe Presi-
Dental contest has settled, official
work has been resumed in Wash
ington. Every member of the Cab.
met, and every important head of
bureau is at present in the city.
They are busy getting up their re.
ports to be submitted to Congress.
There is much depression over
the result of the election, but there
is ais confident belief that the Re-
publican party will prove true to its
grand past, that it will increase in
strength with the coming years,
and that in 1888 it will again be
called to power.
President Arthur intends to de-
vote his time between now and the
re-assembling Of Congress partly to
cleaning up his appointment dock.
et He has just made an important
Pension office appointment, that Of
Mr.. Clarke to be Commissioners.
His next move will be to select and
appoint Commissioner OF Labor
Statistics. There are now fifty let
tiers Of application for this place,
many of them we'll endorsed. The
President is so cautious in making
selections for Office that it would be
unsafe for me- to venture predic-
tion as to who will be appointed.
There is any amount Of talk here
as to what Cleveland will do III re-
gard to the civil service law, and
the drift of opinion is, that although
his intentions may be to enforce
the rules, he will not be strong
enough to blockade the path Of the
hungry horde Of Office grabbers
which is already bowling around
Washington. Experience reminds
one that whenever and wherever
the Democrats have gained politi-
cal ascendancy, they have made a
clean sweep of Republicans, and
have filled their places with Demo.
Gratis. There is no reason to be-
lieve that Democrats Of to-day will
be different from Democrats Of last
year. Yes, the rush for spoils may
be said to have begun. Citizens
who voted to restore the hrigadiers
to power are dropping in, and
writing to say what offices they
want and to find out how to gel
them. The Post Office Department
has been called upon to furnish
lists giving dates when the term:
of postmasters expire in the variou:
states. Those who are here in per
son have possessed themselves O.
Blue Books and are studying then
diligently. They propose to picl
out their positions and pre-empt tn,
ground, or as they say out West
stake their claims.
The letter writer's do not know
exactly where to take hold in thei
search for information. One 0
the hungering ones wrote to tn
Postmaster General to know if ap
! plications for post.ofiices unde

When the Globe, prior to the Chicago
convention, called attention to the fact
that while Cleveland had 1922 600 ma
jority for Governor over Folger, he
only polled 800 more votes than Gen.
Hancock did when Gen. Garfield car
ried New York by 1000, it gave food
for thought. The close call Of the 1922
QUO Governor on the 4th inst. shows
that the effort to profit by statistics was
wise. Success in the pivotal and vital
state of New York was evidently chief
]y due to Republican stupidity and
blunders.-St. Paul Globe.

The Vota Of Minnesota.
The Official Canvass Gives
Blaine a Plurality
Of 41,620.

The State board Of canvassers,
consisting of Gov. H hubbard, Secre-
tary of State Won Baumbach, State
Auditor Braden, Attorney General
Hahn and Judge Berry Of the Su.
preme Court, met last Wednesday
in the office of the Secretary of

the votes cast in Minnesota for
Presidential electors and Congress-
men, on November 4th last.
It's doubtful if there has ever
been an election in the State at
which so many errors we're COM
mitted, the returns from almost
three.fourths of the counties con.
tanning inaccuracies of more or less
magnitude. This was especially so
in writing the names of Presiden-
tial electors. No less than 10000
votes were returned wrong, taking
the individual cases into consider
alton. This includes 5 ,469 counted
for +. NJ. Wright, 2,185 for I. O..
Thorpe, 1864 for G. F. Kindred,
1,O10 for D. Du Toit, 1,006 for

tials have been incorrectly written
or printed. Had the Minnesota
