THE NOVEMBER ELECTION.
A Great Surprise TO Both Democrats and Republic
nnn

A Great Surprise 10 Roth Democrats and Republic
cans.
On Tuesday, Nov. 4, elections were held in
80 States of the Union. and there were many
surprises all over the country. In Pennsyl-
vania which has been reliably Republican for
many years, the maioritics for that party on
many occasions reaching ms high M 10000, the
Democrats elected their Governor (Pattson) by
nearly $4,000, but the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, q
Republican, carried the State by between TO-
600 and 10000.
Tho Republicans also suffered defeat in Ne
braska and Iowa. although in the latter State
the Republican candidate for Secretary of State
is elected. Kansas was struck by political
cyclone, and only one Republican member of
Congress was elected, (Brodorck of the First
Dstrict), the others being either Democrats,
Farmers Alliance or Union Labor mon.
The SD Congress viii be composed of 23l
Democrats, % Republicans and eight Farmers
Alliance and Union Labor men. The follow
ing is the revised list of members elected to tho
next Congress.
In Kansas tho Senatorship is in doubt, IL be-
ing thought that there will be enough oppose
sitiOn 10 defeat Senator ingalls,. In Illinois tho
Democrats have 10l members Of the Legislature
10 tho Republicans l01. while the Labor Union
ticket has three votes. which are unknown
quantities and may control the election. Tho
Legislature of New York is Democratic.
The Democratic majority over all in tho next
House can now he safely and conservatvey
placed at 1870, even if the Farmers Alliance
congressman act independently of the Demo
Gratis. The parties will be represented in the
House as follows:

Don,t Like The Council.

EDIToRs HERALD-I admire your sug-
gestion in regard to paving the streets /;
but, let me ask, is the present Council
able to take care of any streets? So far
they have utterly disregsrded any of the
improved streets, and allowed Main
street to go to ruin, at least to get as full
Of chuck holes as it was before paving,
or worse, and this in spite of bonds OF
the contractors. Spring street is begin
ming the same way, and Fort street may
sooD follow. Mr.. Frankenfeld, however,
has all his interest there. 1t seems to be
the only object Of the Council to make
as maay new streets as possible, widen
old ones, grade and pave them-in fact,
make work for contractors and for very
unnecessary board for widening streets
The board should have been discharged,
with half of the employees of the En-
glneer's office, and the economy of the
city would have besn best served.
In view of the above mentioned facts
l would ask you not to push your sug-
tions too hard on Council which seems
to be but too willing to make new con-
tracts. Let them take care of what there
is now, and they will have enough to do.

You needed them to make can;tai

Administering severe reproof to Sir
Richard Webster, Parnell continued:
II, the leader of party that must
always De IN the minority here, should
be sorry to treat my most powerful oppo-
nents with the incredible meanness and
cowardice which 1 have been treated
with by them. Even now I am further
insulted by the terms of an amendment
which insinuates that the forged letters
may after all be genuine. If Won believe
those letters we're forged, have the cour-
age and trankness to declare it. move
to place the word forged before the
word letters in the amendment to the
motion"

letters to be forgeries, and he consented
that the word forged" should be in.
