THE next National House of Repre-
sentatives will be Democratic by large
majority, but this should not be disheart-
ening to the Republicans, as the Senate
still stands bulwark, insuring the con-
tinuance of Protection.
1t is not unnatural that in the middle
of an administration its enemies should
gain strength and temporary success;
but at the next election an entirely op-
posite result may he expected. The
vote of Tuesday is decisive Of nothing,
but will likely inure to the success of
the Republican cause in 1892.
The new tariff is fixed and fixed to
stay for number of years, notwith-
standing any endeavcr that may be
made by Democrats to change it. There
will be ample time to understand its
workings, and the beneficial effect upon
our industrial system, and we feel as
sured that as it is better understood
there will be a revulsion of feeling, and
Republican majority larger than the
present Democratic one, will control the
succeeding Congress.

an epoch in the life of the individual;
such a remarkable event is treasured in

MEXICO has gone into the retaliatory
business on an extensive scale. She is
very largely dependent upon the United
States for cattle and hogs, yet her Con-
gress has just imposed duty of $500 per
car load on horses and cattle, of $3.50
per head on hogs, and 80 cents per BUSH
ell on the grain sent along with which to
feed the animals while in transit. As
the tax comes off the Mexican consumer
and does not affect the American shipper,
the new duty is not likely to be allowed
to stand for any great length of time.
