HUMoR IN DEFEAT.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat, which
always mixes humor with its mourn
ing, gives diagrams OF the house in the
present congress and the one to follow,
enclosing in black lines in the former
the Democratic quarters, and in the
latter the space the Republicans will
require. 1t affords an impressive idea
of the extent of the popular change.
The st. Louis paper does not aim TO be
merry at the situation entirely for re-
lief in the stress of disaster, as ABRA-
HAM LINCOLN would tell funny stories
in the hours when the national burden
drove him nearest despair. 1t believes
that its party must take an advance move
ment backward, SO to speak, if it
would regain many of those lost
seats. and therefore would impress the
Republican mind as forcibly as possible
with the magnitude of the disaster. 1t
states the composition of the next house
as 50 Republicans to PAS opposition.
The result was so sweeping that little
attention has been given to the exact
details. 1t is doubtful if the Republic
ans have more than 81 out of the 332.
In one of the Rhode Island districts
there was no choice at the election, the
Democrat having l6 plurality. Another
vote will be had, when the plurality
will elect, and the Democrat is pretty
sure to be returned. The Democrats
will have more than two-thirds majority
after allowing a good many members to
the Alliance. No party bias ever had
such dowsing as the Republicans have
in congressman.

PICKED THEM OUT.

Whatever other states may think of
the MCKINLEY sort of protection, Penn
sylyania likes it, and no doubt would
stand by its chief fabricator in contest
for the presidency. This is evident in
the recent vote in that state. For gov
ernor it gave PATTIsoN, the Democrat,
some 1900 majority, on the express
stipulation that it should not count on
the tariff question, but be merely dec
laration against QUAY and bossism.
Other candidates Oh the Republican
state ticket were elected by 10000 and
upwards: but on congressman, where
the tariff measure was clearly the issue,
the Republicans had $1,000 majority.
There need be no calculations on
carrying that state for any tariff
reducer in the presidential con-
test. 1t would be of interest if
the data was at hand for comparison in
other states. 1t is doubtful if any would
be found where there was not marked
increase of vote against supporters of
the MCKINLEY bill over the run of Re-
publican tickets. In New York CITY
the majority for the Democratic cor
gressmen reached the enormous figures
of 10000; in Massachusetts and all the
manuf acturlng districts of New Eng
land, the men who had voted for the
tariff bill were the chief sufferers. To
still greater extent was this true in
the West. In Iowa the $500 for the Re-
publican secretary of state became a
Democratic majority of S,022 on con-
gressmen. The men who had voted for
the bill were singled out by the voters
for express condemnation. The 80 900 for
HARRISON in 1888 is changed to 5000
now. and the most significant feature is
the discrimination shown by the voter
in this matter. This causes the Chicago
Tribune and the other papers that think
with it to demand that the Republicans
shall repeal the tariff act at the coming
session of congress. They don't seem
to realize that the people have been
fooled in regard to the bill, and only
need to be educated properly in its
beneficent principles to love and sup
port it, and go no more astray from the
party line. The Tribune speaks of it
as thorn in the flesh. The man who
was troubled in that way of old had to
endure, and these pricked politicians
may have to wait for Democratic con-
greSS to afford relief

the Democratic states are undercOunted
3.000,000 the partisan advantage would
appear in the loss OF twenty congressman
and electoral votes. But the fact that
one party might gain an unfair advan-
tage in the matter would be one of the
least important effects of the great
fraud. The loss of confidence in the
work and in the integrity of the official
agency would reach farther and be
more deplorable. That PORTER is in
capable for the work will hardly be
questioned by himself. That he is
willing tool of partisan schemerS was
perhaps the chief cause of his appoint
ment. In the recent reports of the Civil
Service Reform league it is noted
that PORTER refused to make
up his appointments under their
rules. If these are desirable, with their
tests OF competency, in any depart
ment of the public service, the census
work would evidently be of that class.
But PORTER refused to regard other
than partisan qualifications, and is UNI
derStood to have made himself solid
with Republican members of congress
by allowing them five of the clerks
each, with generous recognition of the
newspaper correspondents III the way
of patronage. If the New York Sun
has grouped its figures reliably, it is
not apparent how there can be much
defense 10 the charges of partisan ma
nipulatlon and general wortnleSsness
in a great part of the census.

NOT A PLEASANT SPOT.
The Cooperative Colony at Topo
Johanna i'm Hard Luck,

ABILENE, Kan. Nov. 20.-A long in
terview with woman just returned
from TopolObampo. the cooperative
colony on the western coast Of Mexico,
is printed here. The woman says the
colonists are suffering great hardship
Tor want OF proper haDitationS, food and
the conveniences to which they were ac-
customed i'll their Eastern homes.
The crops. she says, have been failures
for two years past. The colonists have
been unable to make satisfactory or
even reasonable living, and many of
them are willing and anxious to return
home. The women, she says, suffer
most. The atmosphere seems to sap
their very life with its torrid heat.
The food quickly becomes in
fected with worms and IN
scots until they are obliged to
eat with their eyes shut. The legs of
the dining tables are set in pans of
water to keep the ants from swarming
over the table and the reserve food is
hung from the roof by wires to keep
the ants from it. With lizards. flies,
snakes aud all manner of creeping in
sects swarming, it is misery to live.
Three hundred coionists started for the
place from here last week.

MAY BE THE OHIO MAN.

The theory is generally expressed by
those who were instrumental in the pas
sage of the MCKINLEY tariff, or who
fully committed themselves to its sup
port before the election, that tie pop
ular verdict adverse to it was due to
misrepresentation of its provisions and
circumstances temporary in their char
acter. In their estimation, as they al
legs, its operation will indicate its wis
dom, and it will, in the early future. be
so popular that its architects will bask
in popular favor. This view makes
MCKINLEY the logical candidate for the
party to nominate for president in 1892.
He and his supporters admit that the
new tariff contributed to the party de-
feat, but only for the reason that there
was lack of time for the people
to be enlightened as TO its merits. The
Notable exception to this is given as Nc
KINLEY'S district in Ohio. In the three
weeks of his campaign he made fifty
one speeches. and removed from the
minds of the people the erroneous i'm
preSsionS that did so much mischief
elsewhere. AS a result he almost wiped
out the 5000 majority, more or less, that
the Democrats had interpoSed in his
way. The illustration is good one to
help out the position Of those who are
hopelesSly committed to that style of a
tariff. Ii the simple presentation of
the gospel of protection as formulated
by its chief prophet could do such a
work in an Ohio district. in the two
years the same stage OF enlightenment
could become general. In the light
of this philosophy. those parties who
have so hastily, and. perhaps, timidly
raled MCKINLEY out of the list of
presidential possibilities may have an
opportunity to revise their conclusions.
The nomination for governor of Ohio
will quite surely be in his reach next
year. Should the state follow the ex-
ample of his congressional district in
the recent election, his ability to pose
as the Ohio idea for use in 1892 would
be unquestioned. The apparent pur-
pose OF his party in congress this win
ter to stand solidly for the meas
ure in its entirety, not CIV
ing away i'll the least, is in the
line of this anticipation. One of the
prominent advocates of the policy in
Ohio insists that there. can be no
more Intelligent Interpretation of the
protection sought by the Republican
party than the MCKINLEY bill, and
that its fortunes must share tue fate of
that policy. 1t is not denied that Nc
KINLEY is man of vastly larger men
tai stature than HARRISON, or than the
Republican party has usually made
presidents of. The attempt to make
BLAINE the head and front by virtue of
supposed antagonism to the browning
work of the party, and thereby con-
tributing to its defeat, is humiliation
to the men who have willingly worked
with MCKINLEY and REED. The Ohio
man may be in the national convention
of his party as a prominent candidate
il he sees fit.

Il. u.
PITTsBURG, Nov. 20.-The second
days session of the National Non-Par-
tisan W. G. Il. U. was opened with re-
ligious exercises, conducted by Mrs.
Martha A. DietZ, president of the Hi
nois association. Letters and kilograms
from various parts of the country were
then read approving the work and urg-
ing the members to prosecute it with
vigor until success finally crowns their
efforts. MeSdameS Foster. Week, Hatch,
Beale and Miss Peake were appointed a
committee on the appeals, after which
Mrs. Foster. as chairman of the COM
mittee on revision of the constitution,
reported number of important changes.
The report occasioned a heated discus
sion, but was finally adopted. The an
nual election which followed was sur
prise, as spirited contest for president
was expected. The opposition to Mrs.
Phinney, of Cleveland, for reelection
as president did not materialiZe, and
she was chosen again with but one dis
senting vote. which was cast for Mrs.
Foster. The other officers elected were:
Vice president, Miss Harriet G. Walker,
of Minnesota; general secretary, Miss
f. Jennie Dutro, of Cleveland; record
ing secretary, Mrs. Florence Miller, of
Iowa; financial secretary and treasurer,
Mrs. c. c. Afford. of New York. Mrs.

NOW IT Is A WOMAN.
Another Palmer Elected to the
Worlds Fair Presidency.

AhctilcF rainier I1ectcu 10 the
Worlds Fair Presidency.
CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-The board of lady
managers of the worlds Columbian ex-
position met to-day and elected Mrs.
Potter Palmer, of this city, president.
The only other nomination in connec-
ton with the position was that of Mrs.
Gen. John A. Logan. She. however. de-
clined the honor in favor OF Mrs. Pal
mer. The new president was conducted
10 the presiding officers chair by Mrs.
Logan and Mrs. Cantrell. and in few
well-termed sentences accepted the
position with its duties and RESPONSE
bliities. Owing to the ladies ineXperience
in parliamentary uSageS the entire
session was consumed in this single
item of business, and at its conclusion
recess was taken until this afternoon.
At meeting of the federal commission
the report of the committee on build
ings and grounds presented yester-
day came up as special order
This report was one of the bombs which
was expected to explode with unusual
violence, as it embraced the much moot
ed question of what proportion of the
fair should be placed on the lake front.
it recommended that the fine art and
decorative art buildings, the music hall.
the electrical display. water palace and
steel tower, with other germane eX-
hibitS, be placed on the lake front, with
the main department buildings. together
with the government and slate exhibits
Oh jackson park, and the overflow on
the Midway PlaiZahce and Washington
park. Commissioner De Young, of Cal
ifornia, asked that the words ''decora-
tive art building" be stricken out of the
lake front appOrtionment. Commission
er Mercer, of Wyoming, offered reso-
luton to cut electrical display" out.
Mr.. Martindale. of Indiana, made an
earnest argument for the adoption of
the resolution. Mr.. Mercer wanted the
matter settled at once and without any
misrepresentation as to what the terms Of
settlement mean. He wanted but one
building on the lake front the art gal
lery. He also filed protest against the
double site submitted 10y thirteen fair
associations. These remarks were fol-
lowed by a talk by Gen. Sewell favor
Ing the report and requesting that it be
adopted unanimously. Commissioner
Jones, of Missouri. supplemented the
remarks Of Gen. Sewell. Col. Jones
said that Jackson Park and the lake
front made an admirable site, though
at first he opposed the double site. He
had recently been to Paris, he SAID. and
declared the Chicago site to be superior
to that of the Paris exposition. Other
commissioners, including President
Palmer, spoke in favor of the report.
The amendments were then voted down
and the report of the committee adopt
ed, finally settling the veXatiouS site
question
