&, Carlisle, who, with his
wife ard son, has been spend
ing the last month in Idaho,
passed through here yester-
day on his way to Washing

election results Mr.. Carlisle
said: OF course there were
many reasons that led to dis

over the country, chef of
which, was the tariff issue. 1t
is an If year, in which the
people, untrammeled By par

think. Prohibition was an
other factor in bringing a.
bout the glorious result, es-
pecially in Iowa. TO show
that this was not the prima-
ry cause, however, of Repub-
Gcan defeat in that State one
need only to study the re-
turna. The prohibition SEN
timent is strongest in the ru-
raj districts of the State, yet
the returns show great Demo
cratic gains in these locali-
ties, 1t is plain that the far
mers hold in accordance with
their tariff convictions, cities
certainly helping out with
votes against prohibition.

TO the DEMoCRAT:

To the DEMOCRAT:
Having been silent for
some time, we again wish to
be heard. We all know we
should educate and do all in
our power to build up our
county. mentally, financially
and in every other good par
tirular. Although we some
times complain of our coun-
ty'sretrograding, but think
il we would look back a few
years. and draw q picture of
her condition, and then com
pare it with now, we could
very easily see to the reverse.
For instance, compare Blow
ing Rock now, with just afew
years back, and you can
plainly see. Then lands a.
round it were were not even
in demand ut five dollars per
acre, it being so high and
cold. Now, there are several
uf the best of hotels, board
ing houses, stores etc, and
lands are now worth twohun
dred and fifty dollars per a.
ere. and quick sales at that,
so we understand. Now, in
our Judgment, "rator" Hill
and Big Ball, of the Rich
Mountain. could be made far
superior to Blowing Rock,
as = summer resort, scenery
ETC.. as they are both places
of considerable altitude,
from which you can see sever
al miles in any direction to
which your face may be turn
led. And then she has, by far
the coolest and best water in
our mountain country. II
those who wish to build ho-
tells. both as summer and
winter resorts, would but
make a start, those beauti-
full lands would not remain
at five and ten dollars per
acre long. Hope some one
will investigate.
Our schools are also much
better than heretofore. No
tice, while just a few years a.
go, we had no academies nor
first class teachers, but now,
we have several good acade-
ybuildings with good fac
,llties. The best in the coun-.
ty, OF which we have any
knowledge, is Cove Creek A.
Scadelny, and it has no flcul-
ty this year for blow and
spread, but Of true principle
and go ahead, as they have
been showing since the 9TH
of August SO. Tuition is a
third lower than it was du-
ling the past two years, and
board also low. Hope those
who desire to go to- a good
school will come in. The
Principal is Prof. Franculn,

successor will be elected by
the legislature chosen last
Tuesday. Allison would
leave a big gap on the Re-
publican side of the Senate
should he, for any cause have
to go.
1t is feared by some Sontii
ern Democrats that the Re-
} publican defeats last week
will have a tendancy to ell
courage the more ratliral
Republican congressman to
pass an obnoxious federal
election law in the hope OF
gaining enough members OF
the House in the South at
the next Congressional eIar-
tion to effect those they are
certain to loose elsewhere
Such a law willnevey be pass
ed by the next House. there
are a number OF determined
Democrats in the house,
that have pledged themselves
to tillibuster until the expi-
ration of the fifty first Con
gress, if such action should
become necessary to prevent
the passage of an obnoxious
federal election law.
The Superintendent of the
Census has made a report OF
what has SO far been done,
and what is to be done in
the future to make the next
census a success. He wants
the printing of the census re-
ports given out by contract
to private parties instead OF
being done bp> the Govern
Ihent printing office as here
tofore. Ii this can he done
without making the work n
political "iop'', it would be
very desirable, as it would
take the Government print
ing office years to do the
work, and keep up with the
constantly increasing cur
rent work. If the reports
cannot be gotten out faster
than they were after the last
census was taken they had
just as well II t be gotten
out at all, for all the use they
will be.
Montana was formally ad-
mitted as a State Friday
morning by Presidential
proclamation, and Washing
ton, the last of the quartette
will follow suit as soon as a
correct set OF election re-
turns are received here from
the Governor.
The All American Congress
will complete it'slong excur-
sion the last of this week.
Next week it is expected that
the Congress will settle down
to the business for which it
was called devising some
means Of increasing the trade
between the United States
and South and Central
America. Just how that
can bedone under ourpresent
high protective tariff is not
very plain.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From ous Regular Correspondent.
For the DEMoCRAT:

Chairman Calvin S. Biict
is a strong favorite with Den
ocrats here and the wisl
that he may be sent to the
Senate from Ohio is heard OF
all sides. 1t is argued that
he has the good will OF all
classes OF Ohio Democrats
and that'llis election would
leave no jealousy to make
trouble in the future.
President Harrison is still
trying to make people in
cluding himself, believe that
the recent elections did not
mean.a disapproval by the
people of his administra ton.
The word has been passed
to every prominent Repub-
lican official that he must ar
que at all times that as no
federal officials were voted
for'the result of the elections
mean nothing as far as the
administration is concerned.
That is for public consump-
tion. In private, the shirt
sleeve brigade, tina t is always
relied upon to do election
work, and which has been
snubbed almost until now, is
10 speak figuratively, being
warmly embraced by Presi-
dent Harrison and promised
any number Of nice fat ap-
pointments if they will only
agree to resume business q t
the old stand. Brother Har
rison has walked up to the
fact that is the members of
the shirt sleeve brigade that
carry elections, and that the
carrying of elections is the
great end and aim of politi-
cal parties. 1t were better
for the Democratic party
that he had not found out
SO much.
That Mrs. Cleveland has
lost none of the great popu-
larity she enjoyed here when
Mistress OF the White House
was fully demonstrated last
week, when she and her illus
trious husband came to
Washington to attend the
marriage of ex-secretary Ba-
yard: After the marriage
Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland drove
to the White House and Mrs
Cleveland left ner card for
Mrs. Harrison. who is out of
town, while her husband
went in side and paid his re-
spects to President Harrison
It was a graceful and courte-
GUS act ON the part OF the
Clevelands.
The cry that Foraker was
knitted by the Sherman men
in Ohio was no news to the
regular reader of this cores
pondence, who will remem-
ber that the organization OF
a. plot to down Foraker
by Sherman and his friends
was noted many weeks ago.

ington, and unless all Signs
fail the gentlemen concerned
in it have bitten off more
than they can chew, Their

from a fellow who rejoicea in

Fducpr and curmurdgeon!
Since writing tile above we
have read the following ta-
ken from q decent Republi-
can paper in Philadelphia,
that dareS to tell the truth
and to tnrn on the light.
The Telegraph says:
"However painful it may
be to acknowledge it, the ac-
acknowledgement must be made
that it was not the Demo
Gratis but the Republicans. in
the last national campaign,
that fried the lat OIt OF the
manufacturers to be used,
and which WIS used, to buy

fund ever raised was raised
was raised by Mr.. IIoar's par
tisan friends, and employed
in destroying the absolute
freedom and purity OF cleo
tions, which he declares tie
country can get only from
his party"
This is fair and most COM
mendable. But the able and
honest Telegraph ..oes not
stop here. 1t goes on to say
with exceeding directness and
point:
Gle ignores the fat-frying
circular issued by the Prdsi-
dent Of the League Of Repuh-
lican Clubs; he closes his eyes,
ears and memory against
Dudley's blocks Of five let
