Partisanship Carried Too Far.

Some Of the leading republican papers
the morning after the election pretended
that the republicans had been victorious in
nearly all parts OF the country. The New
York Tribune, for instance, stated that
''the returns from the states indicate the re-
turn of l67 republican and 1866 democratic
congressman" although it must have known
that the returns did not indicate anything
of the kind. The New York Times
printed within stones throw Of the
Tribune stated that the returns showed
that the democrats would have majority
of II in the next House. How could there have
been such great difference between the
returns received by the Tribune and those
received by the Ttmess The truth, doubt
less. is that the Tribune refused to credit its
own returns. hoping that later returns
would show those already received to be in.

far as to insist that Delamater the repub-

admitted that he was defeated, and the in.

to deceive the public. There was
nothing gained by publishing false news.
Indeed, there was much TO lose, because the
papers which published such news weakened
the confidence of the public in their reia-
biiity. There are some editors who are
such extreme partisans that they are I'M
willing to admit the truth, even when it is
apparent that they will have to do SC

Mr. C!eveland Satisfied.

Mr.. Cleveland, in an interview Wednes-
day with an Associated Press reporter. ex-
pressed himself as very well satisfied with
Tuesdays WORK, and he has good reason TO
be. The overwhelming defeat with which
the republicans met was largely due to the
growing conviction in all parts Of the
country that the protective tariff policy Of
their party is subversive OF the best inter
ests of the country, and that it is rapidly
impoverisning the masses of the people and
enriching the few who are its beneficiaries.
And TO Mr.. Cleveland is due very large
part Of the credit for forcing this conviction
upon the public mind.
When he was President he risked his
chances for a reelection by urging upon
congress in a memorable message the neces-
sity for reducing the tariff, aad since that
time he has missed no opportunity TO call at
tention to the fact that the tariff is the great
issue before the country, and that its reform
in tle direction of lower duties is impera-
lively demanded. He is the recognized
tariff reform leader, and his part in Tues
days victory was very great one. he is
to-day more conspicuously before the coun-
, hAe.- AS hds SecA a. Ill Otuot 1Au1o S4A4CO
ne was President.
Ii there was any doubt before last Tues
day that ne would be the democratic stand
ard bearer in 1892 there ought to be none
now. The attention Of the whole county is
directed toward him, and unless something
occurs to change the current of democratic
sentiment there will be very little opposi-
ton to his nomination. He is certainly the
strongest man the Democratic party could
nominate. Not only has he well-dehned
and wel-known views upon the great ques-
lions now before the country, but his views
aresteadily growing in popular favor; aud,
besides, the people have confidence in him.
He has public record for a conscientious
and faithful discharge of public duties that
appeals strongly to people of all classes.

The Boy Got 1t.

1t was in passenger coach on the Delaware

woman who had seat alone had a covered
basket on the other half of it. Across from her
was mother and her boy, the latter about S
years OF age He had been asleep, but awoke
Just as the woman with the basket got com
fortabiy seated. For about TWO minutes he
wondered over the contents and then he set
tied down to the belief that the basket held
half peck of fried cakes. The thought made
him hungry, and he whispered to his mother:
Ma! ma want IT,
She was leaning against the window, ard half
asleep, and she made no reply.

Twin she care?"
No answer
II say, will she cares"

But can get it?n

The owner OF the basket was looking out Of
the window. The boy watched her for two or
three minutes, and then carefully shipped out
OF bis seat TO the one in rear of hers. From chat
point he could reach the basket, and be lost no
time. A peg held the cover in place, and he
drew it out and carefully pushed his hand under
the lid. 1t was only fairly in the basket when
there was spit and hiss. and next instant
humping big tomcat which had nearly bitten
a finger off, leaped out of the basket upon the
boys head. 1t stayed long enough to draw
blood from half a dozen scratches, and then
bounded to the floor, ran down the aisle and
leaps out OF an open window. The boys y=lls
reused the car in an Instant and his mother
soon had him in her arms 1t took several
minutes TO explain the situation and then the
woman with the basket added:

Walking Match Between Turkeys
and Geese.

When Sheridan was hard up for cash, he used
to make his wit earn the means of subsistence
and he could accomplish this in no letter way
than by laying wagers with the prince regent.
discussion once arose, says Spare Moments,
as 60 the respective walking capabilities OF tur-
keys and geese; and the wit expressed himself
very incredulous Of the assertion that turkeys
would walk twice far as geese in q given
space OF time. He affected to believe that
geese could be driven as fast on the road as tur-
keye; and the thing appeared so very absurd
that the prince instantly laid him heavy wa
ger that such was not the case.
Sheridan, however, knowing the "early-to-
bed habits of turkeys, took care to arrange
for long distance to be traversed, and 10 fix
the period of trial late in the afternoon. The
consequence was that evening set in before the
rival fOcks had anything like arrived at their
destination and, although the turkeys out
stripped the geese at first, as the shades of
night fell they refused to be driven forward, and
got to fying up on to the branches Of the trees
at the roadside. TIE geese. however. we're
driven steadily forward to the goal and the
prince, as usual lost bis wager.
