The COlNte's Reception Hert

A FOE OF THEIR REPUBLIC.
Diplomatic Investigation Said to Be
 Likely to Result.

Collector Erhardt Represented as Well

 Thought Given to the Subject in wash-
 ington-The Philadelphia Reception.
 WASHINGTON, Got. 7.-President Har- rison has been appraised unoficially that the French Government is likely to make the recent welcome of the Comte de Paris in New York oity @ matter of official diplomatic inquiry. Collector Erhardt was represented in the papers as welcoming the Comte in this language:
 "I am instructed, sir, by the Presi- dent of the United States and the Government at Washington, to welcome you to these shores, and to extend to you every courtesy in my power"
 As the Comte de Paris Is the head of the house of Orleans and aspires to place that dynasty on @ throne in France, to the destruction of the pres snt Republican Government, the French Governments representative at New York and Washington have been much disturbed by the character of this seemingly official welcome of the noted royalist.
 President Harrison has unoficially stated that neither he nor the Govern ment directed or instructed such a welcome to be extended to the Comte de Paris, and that an official inquiry from the French Government, which is likely to be made, will be met by an official disavowal. When spoken to about the matter this morning, Secre- tary Windom seemed to treat the mat ter as joke, saying that while he had heard something of 1t he had no official information regarding it.

COMPLAINTS come from all sections of the country concerning the inaccuracy of tbe census enumeration. This is not surprising in view of the character of the man to whom the work was entrust- ed. Mir Porter is nothing more or less than low grade politician, and when he was appointed to the important office of superintendent of the census it was notice to the public that the bureau was to be coverted into a political machine.

 The democrats are to be congratulated upon the result of yesterdays local elec- tions. They made brave uphill fight, and, although few warriors fell by the wayside, the general result was all that could be expected. Notwithstanding the opposition of the Jeffersonian club (save the mark and the fact that the re- publican town ticket was headed by Q democrat and a man popular with all classes, a better showing was never made by the party. With the exception of the candidates for first selectman and collector the democrats made a clean sweep on the general ticket. On the ward ticket they lost two councilmen. On the school ticket they have majority in all the boards, and the clerkship is once more in democratic hands. Town Clerk Madden is re-elect- ed by largely increased majorit, and as usual the city officers all received ma Jorities running up in the hundreds. The defeat of the democratic candidates on the town ticket was due to scratching and pasting. The Jeffersonian endorse ment of the republican town and city tickets was a pure game of bluff. The fight over the spells proved conclusively to the honest men who blindly rushed into the club that the DEMOCRAT was not far from right in its measurement of the leader of the organization, and the 200 votes promised for the straight re- publican ticket did not materiahze.

CARPETMAKERs of Philadelphia and vicinity have entered into a combination to shut down 40 per cent of their looms for one year. This is the first fruits of the Mckinley policy, which was special ly designed to benefit the carpet men. It is already clear that there will be a shortage of foreign wools necessary in carpet manufacture. Gradually similar effects will make themselves apparent in different industries.

BALFoUR and Reed seem to be of the same order in politics. Both men
 "Sit on their thrones

With purple sublimity, And grind down mems bones
 To pale unanimity."
 The argument of both is force, and no doubt the fiat czar of the Cumberland sincerely regrets that he cannot put in subordinate democratic congressman be. hind the bars as Balfour immures troublesome Irish members of parlia. ment. Both men were born several centuries too late. They would have been shining lights in the middle ages.
