There are indications that Frank got

him, and had but little money about

And the Smith ringsters and BUM
mers have been ordered to the rear,
where they belong. A grand victory
has been won for cleaner politics and
better men. The majority for Senator
Edmunds is overwhelming, and Smith
and his satellites have vented their yeI-
ON and spite, and poured out their
money like water, only to be ignomin-
eously defeated and driven into their
holes, where they will stay if they have
any sense left. In this county the rel
alive votes and the republican majority
is about the same as four years ago,
except the vote for Levi Fuller for
Lieut. Governor. lie has been scratch
ed III this county by about four hun
dred republicans, which ought to teach
wholesome lesson to the republican
party to put up no more unfit men for
high office. This thing never happen
cd before and probably never will
again, for it will be long time before
money and caucus-packing will again
be allowed to nominate so unworthy
and unfit candidate. Served him
right. The republican majority in the
legislature will be about as usual. The
Senate will stand 30 republicans to l
democrat, and the democrats will prob
ably have forty to fifty of the 240 mem
bers of the house. The majority for
Edmunds among republicans will be Sc
large that his enemies will hardly have
the check to stand up and be counted

GOa Republicans in Windham coun-

200, as an analysis of the vote shows
that he received at least Is democratic

Strange scenes in the Stricken City

Strange scenes in the Stricken City,
Charleston, S. c., Sept. D.
Charleston is quiet to-day and the Sab
bath silence is only broken by singing
at the different religious meetings
which have been held in the open air.
Hardly church i'll Charleston is con-
sidcrcd safe for occupancy, and minis
tcrs Of the different denominations
have. for this reason, held their ser
vices in different public parks and in
grounds adjoining the churches. There
is no doubt that the estimates of the
loss by the earthquake are far below
the mark. The city appraiser, who
has gone over the whole city, and is
familiar with the value Of property, cs-
Inmates that it will cost at least S5,00O,-
900 to put Charleston in position as
good as That which it occupied only
a week ago. Buildings which were
considered entirely safe, are now dis
covered to be ina dangerous condition
and person who thought they had es
capped without injury. find themselves
confronted by damages which are Gil
tircly beyond their means to repair.
1t is for this reason that there is so
much anxiety.
Two of the government engineers
are expected tomorrow, and i'll addition
to these, the secretary of the treasury,
has been requested to-day to detail a
number Of competent civil engineers

and whether the building is habitable,
and can be allowed to stand, may be
definitely ascertained. The relief com.

Government tents have been erected
i'll cncampmcnts in different parts o
the city, where full attention will b
given to sanitary requirements, bu
it is calculated that at least 5000 person
will need shelter for weeks to come

those needing more than tents. Ampl
