ful errand
The men who abandoned the Republican
party in 1884 and continue TO adhere to the
Democratic party have deserted not only
the cause Of honest government, Of sound
finances Of freedom, Of purity of the ballot,
but especially have deserted the cause of re-
form in the civil service We viii not fail
to keep our pledges becausesthey have broken
theirs, or because their candidate has broken
his. We therefore repeat our declaration of
of 1884, to wit: The reform Of the civil
service auspiciously begun under the Repub-
lcan administration should be completed by
the further extension Of the reform system
already established by law to all the grades
OF the service to which 1t is applicable. The
spirit and purpose of toe reform should be
observed in all executive appointments. and
all laws at variance with the object of exist
ing reform legislation should be repealed, to
the end that the dangers TO free institutions
which Turk in the power Of official patronage
may be wisely aud etfectually avoided
The gratitude Of the nation 70 the defend
ers of the Union cannot be measured BY laws.
The legislation OF congress should conform to
the pledge made by loyal people. and be 50
enlarged and extended as to provide against
the possibility that any man who honorably
wore the Federal uniform should become the
inmate of an almshouse or dependent upon
private charity. In the presence OF an over
flowing treasury it would be public scandal

Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. S-The gubernatorial
question in the State is not settled. Only
complete county returns from 10 outside
counties are reported at 3 p. m. They
are here presented. The struggling and
multitudinous precinct reports convey no
adequate idea of the result and are not
given.
The figures received tor Francis being
added to the majorities in four other
Francis counties, where the full reports
are not at hand, give &c. 1858 as the result.
The figures for Kimball being added to
the majorities in three other Kimba1l
counties give 32,S46, Subtracting Mr..
Francis has to his credit 3,517 in these
counties.
In addition to this estimate Vernon
County will give Francis majority Of
1, 356. This is Mr.. Kimball's own county.
Seventeen out OF 10 precincts in Monroe
County give Francis $3.50 majority.
These authentic figures alone give Mr..
Francis S797 majority in the State with
out counting the large majority he has
assumedly received in Jackson and other
southwestern and southern counties As
Mr.. Kimball goes out OF st. Louis and st.
Louis County with Il, 0)0 majority Francis
will have to add to his s, 797 majority in
the State to make his election sure, but

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. & Harrison,a
majority ia Indiana will not be less than
1901 and probably 5000. Tho State
ticket is elected BY about the same ma
jority. Nine hundred and thirty We
precincts give Harrison 147 9O7; Cleve-
land 141. 8oi. The sans precincts in 1854
gave Blaine, 1874, 603; Cleveland. 1874 TOO.
Under the law of Indiana this is the
day whoa the supervisors Of elections
convene in each county to canvass the
returns. These boards are consequently
now in session throughout the entire

hour to- night the vote of the State by
counties will be obtainable, although
this is doubtful. The canvassing
board for this (Marion) county Is
