EOW III WAS DONE

A good many people will now BIO employed
in explaining how it all happened Some Dem
ocrats will assert that the President made a
fatal mistake in not sending Governor Hill
the same kind of certificate with which he
armed District-Attorney Fellows. Others will
say that the Governors allianre with the sa-
looms and his evil reputation as political
trickster repelled thousands of broad minded
men OF Independent ways Of thinking from tho
Presidents side. Some Democratic partisans
will censure the English press for its indiscre-
tons, and not few will insist that if Lord
Sackvlle had not bounced upon the scene defeat
might have been ayerted. Thtn there will be
no end of loose talk about .monopolist bar
rels,' intimidation by manufacturers, trading,
knitting corruption funds and campaign for
geries
Why not give the American people their just
due? They have done tins thing. They are
responsible for it. The condition which con-
frontcd them was the continuance in power OF
n Democratic Administration committed to pol
icies which were detrimental to American in
terests. Along with this condition, which was
so sharply defined that every one could under
stanI it, there was the frqe-trade theory which
the President himself had upheld in his mes
sage without being conscious that he was re-
peating the formulas and arguments of Cobder
and Bright. Both the condition and the thu
DRY warned the American people that they

and vainly received much to gain complete
control of the State Government for three
years, and Of the city for two. 1t Is lament
able. indeed. that this magnificent opportunity
was lost Fortunately, the 1ammany cand-
dates this year are citizens with whom no serious
fault can be found men OF good character and
NEWCOMERS who enjoy the respect of the commu-

While no general overturning, no radical puri-
fcation of the municipal service can be expected in
Tammany hands, it is probable that there will be
an Improvement in many departments which are
now encrl.sted with the barnacles of the County
Democracy OF course d. Lowber Smith will be
shot out OF the Public Works as by catapult, and
General Newton will not be urged
to accept another term. The whole
New-Amsterdam Club gang will be turned out

anguish of Richard A. Cunningham and the rest
Of the old THOMPSON crowd, which has so long

pointments that during his term he will determine
more completely end thoroughly the whole COM
position and character of the municipal govern
ment than any Mayor whom New-lork has had at
any time within lhe last fifteen or sixteen years.
1t is an enormous responsibility indeed. We have

fairly. If the voters of New-York who have
shown so generous confidence in lammanys candl-
dates for the Mayoraty and for the other Offices
are deceived in their expectations, Iammany Will

THE CRIME AGAINST MR. cox.

What has become of lfr Cox's alleged efforts
10 discover that frank forger? Two or three
weeks ago he worked himself delirious over what
he stgmatized as Shameless political out
rage first protesting courageous determine
ton to help The Tribune unearth the scoun-
dre and afterward denouncing us because we
took him at his word Then he got up in Con-
rrcss, roundly abused this paper, made an exhi-
bition OF himself by offering vndcation"
that indicated nobody, and would doubtless
have perpetrated other indiscretions but for a
broad hint as to certain strange phases of tn
case not yet revealed.
OF course, his cheap buster deceived nobody,
especially as he was then seeking reelection.
But now that he has been returned by COM
Portable majority, ought We not to require him
10 display some OF that virtuous zeal OF which
we have heard so much and seen so little? The
atrocity Of the crime against Congressman IN
general and Mr. Cox in particular is as great
now as it ever was; and, without making any
rash promises, we cheerfully offer to exert oui
influence to secure permission to hand him the
package, if he still thinks that that Will com
plete the chain of evidence. Come now, Mr
Cox. What do you say? To show your OWL
good faith, shouldn't you Jump at the chance

tial. A Republican Congress Will nave no
RIGHT 20 dofer unnecessarily the question as to
reduction or repeal Of the Internal Revenue.
Hence there is requisite such comparison OF
views that Republicans may be prepared to act
ON that oucstion promptly, with reasonable
unanimity and in such manner as 10 secure
the approval of constituents
Nor will the readjustment and revision of
the tariff be safely passed without preliminary
considerations 1t is well known that changes
in the course Of trade or in modes OF man
ufacture since the revision OF 1888 have made
the tariff defective in important respects that
the misiudgment of its reyisers or the mischief
making votes of Free Traders rendered the
revision in other respects disastrously defec-
tive; and that Treasury rulings ana deciSions
Of courts have given to the existing law
meaning and force not at all contemplated by
those who voted for it, TO meet these de-
fects to abate taxation which has become I'M
necessary, or to substitute effective IN place
of impotent duties for protection, the Kepub-
licans will need to prepare themselves by In
curry and by comparison Of views
Nor is it to be forgotten that part of the
surplus revenue exists because the Democratic
party has neglected or obstinately refused to
provide for matters of grave public concern.
Republican Congress ought to be prepared
without delay to provide for the defence OF
the Nations coasts and harbors, and its ex-
posed commercial cities. 1t ought to be pre-
pared to provide for naval construction with
out purchasing from Great Britain plans which
prove worthless. 1t ought to take into serious
consideration the necessity of establishing ana
maintaining a foreign mail service without
dependence upon lines subsidized by other
nations.
On another matter of high public duty as
of National welfare, Republican Congress
should be prepared to act at once. The people
of North and South Dakota have for years
been robbed of their rights as American citi-
zens by the wilully partisan injustice OF
Democratic House. 1t is an unprecedented
outrage that population four or five times
that required for admission to Statehood should
be thus disfranchised for no other reason than
to keep out electoral votes not likely to be
Democratic. Washington Territory also Is
without doubt qualified for admission to the
Union by this time. One of the very first acts
of Congress signed by President Harrison
should be one adding at least three States to
the Union.

GOOD WORh IN BROOKLYN.

The Republicans of Kings County are to be
congratulated upon their success. With an IN
creased registration Of over %, 900 they have
reduced the Democratic majority from 1918
in 1884 to II 1854. While Boss Mclaughlin
had assured the President that he would have
nearly 10000 majority in Brooklyn and
strained every effort to redeem the promise,
the Republicans brought an admirably con-
Quoted canvass 90 a close with twenty-iour
hours Of unremit'ing lsbor and vigilance Tho
Brooklyn Young Republican Club not only
manned the pollng-pl places by daylight but
also stationed watchers in every room where
the vote was counted. No precautions were
neglected for securing an honest count and
truthful announcement of the result in every
election district. II Democratic managers had
made arrangements for altering the figures or
artiiicially increasing their majority, the yigi-
lance with which every detail of the election
and the counting was watched prevented trick
cry and cheating.
A yea ago Brooklyn came within few
hundred votes of clectng a Republican Mayor,
with the strongest Democrat who could have
been named on the opposite side. This year
with an increased registration larger in pro-
portion to population than that of Newly ork'
there is gain Of nearly 1000 on vote OF
| over 10000. The time is coming when
| Brooklyn will be a permanent Republican
stronghold. The next ten years, with the rapid
building up Of the new wards on the outskirts
of the town, ought to snffce for the accomplish
ment of this result. The party has only to
pursue the wise policy adopted this year OF
nominating men Of the highest character for
local Offices, and then of supporting them by
vigorous, systematic canvassing OF the oesO
order and il will trillmDh in the end.

TILE NEWT LEGISLATURE.

II is disheartenng for the friends Of genuine
reform to reflect that David b. Hill is to oc-
cupy the Governors chair for three years more.
The situation at Albany, however is by no
means as bad rs it might be. OF course the
Governor will doubtless continue to employ his
veto TO serve the rum interest and the Demo
cratic bosses But Republican Legislature
will prevent him from successfully pushing
many of his pet schemes having for their OBJ
iect the promotion Of his own and his party
selfish ambition. During the last three years
the Senate has brought to naught those no.
torious nominations Of his which were The out
come of peanut politics. That wholesome
check upon the Governor will continue. The
Senate that holds over is Republican. And
the Senate that is to be chosen next fall Is
sure to have Republican majority
The Assembly which was elected on Tues
day is overwhelmingly Republican and like the
Senate can be depended upon to make an hon
orable and fruitful record. Many Of the lead
ers Of the last House that worked most man
fully for the success of the great reform meas
ures of the session have been returned This
is as it should be- Their reelection is the
guarantee that the Assembly of 1889 will meet
the best expectations.

was not Tammany man at all, in any proper
meaning of that term.

Enough returns are now in Cat midnight
to dissipate the last possible doubt as to the
general features of the result. HARRISON ana
Morton are elected They carry New YORK by
not less than 10000: Indiana by probably
5000; and the solid North, only excepting
New-Jersey which is Democratic by less than
5000, and Connecticut, where the complete
unofficial count gives Cleveland a beggarly
plurality of 3S5. California and Nevada are
believed to be safely Republican. Missouri and
West Virginia threaten to break the Solid
South; Maryland came near widening the
breach. and Delaware astounds tho country
with Legislature that will for the first time
in the history of the State send Republican
TO the United States Senate. The next House
of Representatives is surely and safely Repub-
lican. Our own figures promise a Republican
majority of from % to 80, and that veteran
authority, Edward Mcpherson, always con-
sentative is sure of at least II. In this State
Warner Miller for Governor is unfortunately
defeated by moro than 10000. Judge Rum
sew. however, is running so far ahead OF the
State ticket that there is more than possibility
he NAV be elected over Judge Gray. In New
York City the result is not changed materially
from that announced yesterday, except that
Mr.. Hewitt comes out third in the Mayoralty
contest, the vote being: Grant, 111,|4O;
Erhardt 1854; Hewitt, 70,530.

THE TTPpEC1NOE ANNIVERSARY.


II President Cleveland viii turn to that we'll
thumbed Cyclcpedia of his he will find this
Interesting statement in the sketch of William
Henry Harrison, ninth President of the United
States:
The agitation among tho Indians caused by Tecum-
sch and his brother, the prophet having resulted In
hostncs, Harrison I'm the autumn of ISL advanced
against the prophets town at the head of 500
men, partly regulars and partly volunteers His
camp at Tppecanoe was unsucceSsfuy attacked on
the night of November I.
Now observe, Mr.. Cleveland, how history re-
peats itself and keeps anniversaries The camp
of the Presidential grandfather of his President
elect grandson was unsucccssluly attacked on
November Z, 1911, and on that very day OF that
same month seventy-sev en- years later, November
Z, 1888, the camp of the Prcsident-elect grand
son of his residential grandfather was also
unsuccessful!y attacked" The Indians strove
valiantly to capture the Harrison camp of 1871
with such weapons tonahawlIs and knives {;
the Democrats st;ove just as yaliantly to capture
the Harrison camp Of 1888 by the method OF
warfare known as nonkeying with the re-
turns" AS the Indians retreated from the llar-
rison camp in 1911 tle victOrs filled the air
with "a magnetic conundrum; the Democrats
fell back from the Harrison camp in 1883 a
conundrum was hurled after them by the con-
ouering Republicans. And behold the cOnun-
drum of 1911 and of 1888 asked the same ques-
ton and returned the same answer, thus.
"Whats the matter with Harrlson!'
"He's all right
There is a moral, Mr. Cleveland, that goes
with this striking and really beautiful coinci-
dence Obviously, too the moral is: When
you are urged to attack the camp of a Harrison
don't.

THE NEWT HODSE.

If it proves. as the latest advices still indi-
cate, that the Republican party has secured
majority in the next House of Representatives,
it must be pI opared in due time 10 enter into
full control q the Government again, and to
resume the large responsibility from which it
has been relieved for some years past by Demo
cratic majoritcs. II will be found that there
is The utmost need of new and competent hands
on deck The party now in office, having lost
by long inexperience the scanty faculty OF
government it once possessed. has distinguished
itself by its ncapacity. knowing but little
of modern industries and their needs, and try
ing to govern the country much rs If 1T were
Texas ranch or an Arkansas plantation, that
party has done great mischief by sheer ncom-
petence, but even more by its reckless partisan
ship 1t will be found that it has tolerated the
worst abuses and the gravest Encouragement
in its desperate anxiety to retain power !;
that il has prostituted the public service in
many ways TO party ends; and that fragrant
wrongdoing needs exposure. 1t Will be found
that the gravest public interests have been
neglected or wilfuly sacrificed for the sake of
partisan advantage. To apply the necessary
remedies will be the first duty of Republicans
as soon as they are able.
They will not enter into full control OF the
Government until December, 1889 unless the
President elect shall find occasion to assemble
the House in extra session after March 4. The
attempt to apply a proper remedy for existing
evils by any process Of barter between the
present Democratic House and the Republican
Senate would involve a sacrifice Of public in
terests, as well as Of opportunity to advance
Republican principles. But when the party
does enter into full charge Of the legislative
as well as the executive branch Of the Govern
ment. it should be prepared TO act without any
unnecessary delay upon some matters of the
highest Importance.
President Clevelands insincere endeayor to
make bugbear out of the surplus revenue in
order to break down protection should not
blind any to the fact that proper and wise
! legislation on that subject has become essen

A Republican Senator from Delaware is a
delightful surprise indeed. But just that is
what cur dispatches show. The Legislature
of that State will have Republican majority
of 20, and Senator Saulsbury's successor will
be the first Republican who has eyer repre-
sented Delaware in the Senate of the United
States Secretary Bayard will probably take
this more to heart than the defeat of Cleveland
