N. L. llfllehs
There is only ore answer possible to
this question that will satisfy candid in
quirers. 1t is because President Harri-
Bon hos distinctly refrigerated from tue
standard which his immediate predaces-
eor set up. II was because the admins
tration Of President Cleveland was ps-
triotio and public.spirited that the mean
nesses OF commonplace politics revolt
those who were never revolted by them
before. 1t has been said of Wagner's
music that people who have heard it only
to hate 1t yet find that after hearing it
they can no longer stand Beilinl. Doubt
less there are thousands and thou
sands of the voters who deserted
the Republican party on Tuesday
who would still declare that they
were justified in voting for Harrison last
year. and that Democratic ascendaucy,
as exhibited in the administration OF
Cleveland, had been curse TO the eoun-
try. All the same these mep are con.
scious of change, and of mohange for
tine worse, since Cleveland ptan out ard
Harrison came in. They are sensible that
the Democratic administration raised and
that the Republican administration has
lowered again the tone Of American pub
lilo life. They are not yet willing to give
President Cleveland the credit OF tho
one, but they are prepared to visit upon
President Harrison the diseredit of the
other, q discredit OF which they are con-
scious only by contrast. Il Is because
Mr.. Cleveland 10 not commonplace
politician, but man of honesty and
courage, that the succession of COM
monpace politician arousea the resent
ment OF men who would never have
noticed or known the difference il the
line of commonplace politicians had been
unbroken. 70 raiaa the standard of
official life and OF political sentiment in
q country Is n very great public service.
| When the man who renders it does il at
his own risk and sacrifices his own i'm
mediate prospects IN doing it, we may
adopt Bnrke's language and ssy that 1t
ia service which rarely comes within
this powers and almost as rarely comedies
with the desires OF any man" This is
the great benefit which Grover Cleveland
hos conferred upon the people OF tns
United States. He has made Benjamin
Harrison insolerRble.

WASHINGTON, Nov. of the rs United
States senators the terms OF 2i-nRmely,
10 Democrats and ID Republicans-ex
pred last March. Barbour, O Democrat,
succeeded Riddleberger, Republican,
from Virginia, and to couuterbalance this
change, Higgins, Republicsn, sue
ceeded Salisbury, Democrat, from
Delaware. Thus the political complexion
of the chamber was left unchanged, and
it stands to-day: Democrats, 81; R-pub-
licans, 80. When Congress meets again,
however, eight new senators will present
their credentlaB--Eix Republicans from
North and South Dakota and Washington,
two Democratic from Montana Then the
Senate will have 81 msmbers divided into
80 Democrats and 10 Republicans.
The Senate 10 divided into three classes.
OF the present senators the terms OF 25
expire III March, 1891, 25 in 1893 and 26
in 1895. Tho eight new senators from
the new states will be divided into three
classes by lot. Three will be assigned GO
the class whose terms expire in 1891,
three into the 1893 class and two into the
class of 1895. Then each of the three
classes will have 90 members. Which
three at the new senator's Will be put into
the 1891 class is Impossible to foretell,
but however the lots may be cast 1t Will
maze no difference politically, for the
same legislatures which have elsoted the
three short. term senators will elect their
| SUCCESSORS, and the same men will prob-
| ably be re elected. But the elections
| that have recently taken place in tho old
states may make some changes in the
| political complexion OF the senate in
| 1891 The J3 Republicans and IL Demo.
Gratis whose terms expire then aud whose
successors are to be- appointed by the
| legislatures elected on Tuesday are:
| experimentation OF lows, Blair of
/ New Hampshire, Cameron OF Psnnsvlya-
mia, Farwell of Illinois, ingalls, OF Kan
sas, Jones of Nevada. Mitchell Of Oregon,
Morrill, of Vermont, Plat OF Connecticut,
Spooner OF Wisconsin, Stanford OF Cali
fornia and Ye,ter Of Colorado.
Observation-Disclosures of Kentucky,
Brown OF Georgia, Call of Florida, Eustis
of Louisiana, Hampton of South Caro-
lima, Jones OF Arkansas, Payne of Ohio,
Pugh of Alabama, Vance of North Uaro
lins, Vest of Missouri, Voorhees, oil
Indiana and Wilson Of Maryland.
The changes of 1891 are liable to re-
duce the Republican majority in the
Senate. The Republican majority being
now six, counting the senators from tbs
new stntes, the displacement of three
Republicans by three Democrats in 1891
would make the Senate tie, the casting
vote being in the possession of Mr.
Morton, the Vice-P President, and the cleo
tion OF four Democrats in place of fou
Republicans would give the Democrats
majority Of two.

The Lexington Tragedy Results i'm n
Double Murder.

Double Murder.
LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. 10.-The curtain
was rung down on the last act of an m
paralleled tragedy at 1855 O'Clock to-
day. At that hour Dol. William Cassius
Goodloe died, and almost ut the same
time the remains Of Dol. Armistead ID.
Swope were being lowered into the grave
beside that of his mother OF Stanford, Ky.
Colonel Goodloe slept quietly nearly
all night. In the early morning hours
he became restless however, ana groaned
good deal. By O'Clock there was .
noticeable change in his condition, and
the physicians and friends about his bed
saw that he was sinking.
At IO O'Clock he rallied somewhat, and
calling DIR. Conner, asked the physioian's
opinion. This was given, and it was that
he was dying. Col. Goodloe then called
to his bedside Col. j. W. Mcdowell, his
intimate friend, and arranged his bust
ness affairs. At 10 O'Clock he was sinking
rapidly, and in 55 minutes breathed bis
last.
the awful tragedy ia passing away, the
friends of the man who was cut to pieces
and the one who died to day, are viewing
the matter in more rational light. Al
first, for some unaccountable reason,
there was q leaning in public sentiment
toward Colonel Goodloe. This is now
changing, and sympathysis stronger witt
the man who was bUtchered.
There was noticeable close weighing
of words by witnesses before the coroner'i
jury, to prevent any appearance OF bias
but careful analysis Of the testimon.

seems to indicate that Goodloe made the
first aggressive move and really had his
knife ont before Swope's pistol was pulled.
Then the horrible manner in which the
bulchery was done Is telling against
Goodloe. His weapon was not that of q
gentleman, it was the Dagger of the
assassin, Friends of Colonel Swope say
that he anticipated no trouble with Col.
Goodlos and was not carrying pistol
for him, but was expecting an assault
from another quarter.
In fact there had been renewal of q
quarrel with William Preston Kimball,
secretary of the Democratic state central
committee, which had its inception in
the election of Senator Blackburn some
Blk years ago. Swope was, il is claimed,
expecting al assault from Kimball and
had armed himself.
Colonel Goodloe sent for an Episcopal
minister this morning and was received
into that church. He will be buried
Tuesday afternoon.

JAoKsoN nnIps SMITH.


English Champion.
LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE great fight be-
tween Peter jackson, the oolorsd AUS
tralian pugilist, and Jem Smith, the
English champion, took place early this
morning at the Pelican Club, and was
won by jackson in two rounds. 1t was
fought In the presence OF about 500 mem.
bers OF the Pelican Club, who hoped to
see Smith mop the floor with his duHky
combatant. Among the spectators we're
many lords members of the house of
commons and other noted Englishmen.
The affair was intensely exciting, and
not even the Sullivan Mitchell fght at
tracted more interest. The betting was
to 8 in favor OF the oolored pugilist,
who appeared in splendid form. Through
out the fight the spectators booted aud
howled at the ooiored champion, and
cheered their favorIte uncessantly. The
fight ives purse Of El COO, which had
been subscribed by the member OF the
olnb. Jam Smith, however had even q
much greater prizs to fight for. He ex-
peoted to make $4,000 by winning the
match, owing to the private purses and
other gifts promised him by his admirers
il he was successful. Amid wild cheers
smith entered the ring, followed by
Ba!dork and Hooper, his famous seconds.
Jackson's appearance with his seconds,
Jack Fallon and Jem Mace, was greeted
with sneers aud jcers.
Smith won the toss for position. In
the first round there were many heavy
exchanges. In the second round Smith
appeared to be winded. jackson forced
the fighting, aud knocked the English
champion oil over the ring. Falling
against the ring ropes Smith grasped {
rope with his right hand and guarded
hinsef with his left. Finally he made q
rush and threw jackson. Smith tried &c
resume the fight with bare knuckles. TEt
police seized him and persuaded him tc
shake hands with his antagonist. Smith
was beaten at Nil points. He has los
many friends by hia display of temper
and his claims to being in champion form
ARE exploded,

A Possibility Shat They May Rattle

New YORK, Nov. 12.-The next man to
face John l.. Sullivan in the ring will
probably be Dominiok Mccartney. NO
match has yet been made, but by to.
morrow night everything, it is thought,
will be arranged for the contest, II Sulli-
van gets here from Boston as he has
promised. This fight will undoubtedly
attract as much attention as did the
ohampion'a battle with Rilrain, al
though 1t will not be for the
championship. The California Ath-
letic Club, it is said, is willing to put up
a big purse for Sullivan and McOafrey,
but the amount has not been definitely
stated, but will be not less than $7,50O.
Mike Kelly of the Boston basel ball club
was with McOafrey yesterday afternoon,
sn6 il was said afterwnrd thatthe $40, 600
man is using his time and influence to
bring the men together. Three or four
kilograms were sent to the big fellow
during the afternoon, but as to the nature
of the replies nothing could be learned
last night except that one of McOaffrey's
most intimate friends said that Sullivan
was, like Barkis, 'twillin'," and that
everything would be fixed within day
or two.
McCatfrey said last night: 81 will fight
Sullivan to finish with any kind OF
gloves at the California Athletic Club, or
/ will fight here in the east any number
OF rounds aud with any gloves required
by law. He and 1 fought August 10th,
1885. 1 was then not %, and the world
knows the result, that was not defeated.
II took three days to give the decision.
Now am 20, and / think l am more
capable OF fighting a man of sullivan's
calibre. In my last fight with sullivan l
neither received black eye, bruise, or
knock down, end / was willing to con-
tinus the contest. Why Sullivan didn't
injure me IL best known TO himself"
One of suliivau's friends says: "John
Il. is not without means, as many sup
pose, but he is ready to fight any of
these alleged fighters il they can produce
money enough. He is in no hurry to
fight, however, and has sufficient funds
to carry him for any length of time.
Will he meet McCafrey? Ishould think
he would if there ia money enough in IT,
but of one thing l can assure you, he
wont fight for love, that's dead Ger
tainty. don't know how John feels
about purse fighting ia California, but
see no reason why he should decline Il
Eight there if the money consideration
was big enough"

suits: .'Of course there were many
reasons which led TO the disaster of the
Republican party all over the country,
chief of which was the tariff issue. II is
the of year in which people, uptram-
meied by party zeal, vote the way they
think. Prohibition was another factor
in bringing about the glorious result,
and especially in Iowa. 10 show
thet this was not the primary
cause, however, OF ths Republican
defeat in that state one need only study
tine returns. Prohibition sentiment is
strongest in the rural districts OF the
state, yet the returns show great Demo-
cratic gains in those localities. 1t is
plain that the farmers voted in accord
anoe with their tariff convictions, the
cities certainly helping ont with votes
against Prohibition. The same can be
said OF all the other states. The Heaven
OF tariff reform as Cleveland has said, is
WORKING, tAe ufbt Ifullb VI Wulch Woto
gathered last Tuesday.
"The election means nothing else than
Cleveland in 1892. Although Mr.. Oleve-
land was not the originator of the tariff
reform he emphasized il and intensified
interest in it. will say that had the
Presidential election Of last year been re-
peated month afterward Cleveland
would have been elected. 1t was imme-
