How do YOu Like 1t?

How do the leading democrats in the
Bluffs take it? Rather good naturedly
remarkably so in fact, in view OF all
the circumstances. There is no doubt a
little soreness, but they come to the
front smiling-some Of the grins being
little forced, to be sure. Among
them:
Joe Shea-Harrison isgood enough for
me. | am more of an American citizen
than am partisan.
Judge Robinson-Go to -, don t
talk to me. Money buys votes. That's
certain.
Tom Bowman-There hasn't been any
election. 1t was a cyclone.
Billy Thomas-1t suits me, only l
didn't like to see Cleveland beaten.
Alderman Bellinger-It was sur
prise party. Even the republicans
didn't expect it. 1t has knocked me
alone for a week until | get over it.
j. j. Stewart, Esq.-lf you like it,
the rest of us can stand it.
A. g.. Graham am satisfied to abide
by the will Of the majority. But it
hurts just the same.
Henry Eiseman-It don't suit me
very well, but suppose l have to be
satisfied.
Mayor Rohrer-I shan't give it up
until | get the official returns from
Kane township.
Justice Biggs-It is all for the best.
j. A. Murphy-It was a perfect cy-
clone, and the railroads are responsible
for it.
G.. A. Holmes-It's all right. Now, l
want you to have a majority in the
senate and house of representatives;
then you will admit Dakota, Montana
and Idaho. We will then see how long
the west will support the high tariff on
everything they use.
Alderman Waterman-You have it
all your own way now, but we are not
dead yet.
Alderman Weaver-Good; it's all
right. You have everything, and |
suppose you are satisfied.
G. A. Hammer am as happy as a
IA bird in cage.
John Plumer-DOn't bother me; let
me forget my misery.
Alderman Lacy-I like it first rate.
Now can get even with some of of you
fellows. Steadman has promised me
that Walter Smith and Milt Sears can
have mail routes. Elihu Myers wants
the pOstoffice, but he can't have it. Per-
haps | can get him in for janitor. That's
the best can do for him. III see that
all you fellows get something. / UNDER
stand Phil Armour has been looking at
the building, but it's too big for h1m.
S. B. Wadsworth-But it's Il cold cold
day
Ben Marks-The people were not edu-
Gated in the questions at issue. That's
what's the matter with the whole busi-
ness.
N. [. Tibbitts-The sorehead demo-
Gratis couldn't steal enough under Cleve-
lands administration, SO they knitted
him. .... -..
Judge James-It's all right. only
wish you had completely knocked out
the boodlers of the city.
Auditor Hendricks-It is no longer
public trust" it is private snap.
Colonel Pusey:-It is one of those
political revolutions of which all repub-
lican forms of government are subject.
If the house of representatives had ad-
journed and let its members work their
districts we could have h eld the house.
Cleveland is more of a statesman than
Il politician.
George Rudio:-I amt kicking. It's
all right. But it isn't true that stood
in on my bets with both sides. / lost
heap of money, SO they say, but you bet,
didn't lose much Of my own.
Dan Farrell:-We got scooped clean
out. and it makes me red headed.
John Churchill:-It was the combina-
ton in New York that killed us. |
don't think / shall spend the winter in
California. The election returns don't
point that way.
John Ahles-The defeat is the result
OF lack Of organization and proper edu-
cution in the principles at issue. The
npnnp lnHrninp 'ThaV learn
ing fast, and you will see it after awhile.
