THE NRxr cnNcREss

II the Democrats have captured the next
House. it is by majority so poor and feeble
that they will have hard work to hold it. Their
victory, If victory it is, will prove barren OF
all but baleful results, for they will not be
able to Iegisate and will be burdened with
responsibility that they will be powerless to
discharge. Since the last Congressional cleo
tons the boundaries of no less than nineteen
Republican districts have been altered by DEM
ocratic Legislatures so as to wipe out Repub-
lican majorities and to create Democratic major
tiles in their stead 10 say nothing of the twen-
ty-six Republican seats that are stolen outright
in every election, these gerrymanders afford
full explanation of the results yesterday. So
far as the issues presented by the Republican
record are concerned, these results are Of no
value or significance.
Late in the Congressional campaign curious
change occurred in the scene of the chief con-
Hict. According to the boasts and plans OF
the Democrats, it was to be fought in the West
and certainly they made an effort more brazen
than gallant to carry and keep it there. But
the splendid work of Speaker Reed, Mr.. Nc
Kinley, MIR. Cannon Governor Gear, MIR. Hen
dersOn, and other Republican Campaigners sup
pIementGd by State organizations which in IL
linois, Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, Iowa, Michigan
and Minnesota were unequaled for their eff
fectiveness soon convinced the Democrats that
their atrocious lie about high prices and their
frantic appeals to the farmers were wholly in
effectual. The West has again proved it's de-
yOtion to Republican principles and has de-
monstrated its confidence in the Administra-
tion of preeident uorria0n
Republican losses so far as they have been
incurred, are purely the result of factonal dis
turbances They are in no way significant OF
public disapproval of the new Tariff law or OF
the Republican record in any other respect.
Here in New-York three districts have been
sacrificed to the mean jealousies and petty
squabbles of politicians, result as unneoes-
sary as it was disgracefu. Encouraged by dis
turbances of this nature in the ranks OF the
Republicans in the East, and convinced OF the
futility of their bombastic proceedings in the
West the Democrats directed their later at
tacks chiefly upon the close districts in New
York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Here
they made curious and important gains, which
at this hour render the net result matter OF
serious doubt.

THE NEW ELECTION Law.

The new Election laws of this State may be
amended in minor details, but they will never
be repealed. Good citizens of all parties united
yesterday in expressing approval of the Saxton
law and satisfaction with the wholesome re-
forms effected Never has there been more
orderly and quiet election in this town. The
whole aspect of the polling places was changed
there was 10 swarmng of political workers
and heelers about the voting centres; if pastors
wero distributed it was not near the booths
and ballot-bOxes; there were no signs Of Co
ercion bribery, and political debauchery any
where and every citizen was free agent and
was at liberty to cast secret ballot. The new
law proved to be simple and effective method
of relieving every voter from outside pressure
and of enabling him to exercise his political
privileges without interference from any quar-
ter painstaking efforts had been put forth
by all parties to explain the law in advance,
and its operation was Unexpectedly smooth and
satisfactory. The new system is now not only
understood in detail, but generally liked and
heartily approved by all reputable classes OF
voters. When the polls closed yesterday one
result of the election in this State was known
in advance. That was the hearty acceptance
of the new election methods by an Overwhelm-
ing majority of voters.
This verdict was reached without reference
to the counting of the ballots and the success
or defeat of either party. 1t was the result OF
universal commentator of the decent, orderly
and peaceable processes OF the new system.
| In the lower wards of this town there has never
been so little hustle and excitement at the
polling places, so little uproar, wrangling and
drunkenness, and such immunity from bribery,
trading and trickery. The secret ballot pre-
pared in the retiring bOoth and folded SO as to
conceal all means of Identification save the
number on the stub was revealed uptown and
| downtown, on the East Side and in the an
uexed district as potent agency OF reform.
1t was acknowledged by citizens of high and
low degree to be an effective expedient for
preventing bribery, corruption and undue in
tiuence, and by arming every voter with his
individual rights. Long before the counting
Of the ballots began the victory of the Reform
law was known to be complete and overwhelm-
ing. 1t had defied political wiles and corrupt
ing influences it had disarmed prejudice and
| it had conquered for itself a stronghold in the
hearts and consciences of good citizens.
1t is not improbable that the law will be
amended in some particulars as the result of
practical experience acquired yesterday. The
| original Saxton bill, marking a close approach
to the Australian and English voting systems,
would be an improvement upon the present
act, especially from the reduction OF the print

ing expenses and the avoidance OF needless
multiplication of votlnR-papers. The present
law is not reduced to the best possible form,
hut even with its imperfections. for which
Governor Hill is alone responsible. it marks o
great advance upon the old system OF voting.
The people of the State are to be congratulated
upon the substantial reformation of election
methods which has been effected. This Is q
triumph for good citizenship and public morals
in which every one can unite this morning.

Newark. After that they will separate and
prosecute their mission in various cities OF the
West, coming together again in Chicago. IL
is certain that they will be heard by vast
crowds everywhere, and their confidence that
their visit here will be amply rewarded is not
likely to prove baseless.

Policeman Mann Decides to go Back

 After 8 weeks trial Charles E. Mann, the newly elected patrolman, arrived at the conclusion that the life of 8 police man is not what it is cracked up to be, and on Saturday he rendered his resig- nation to Chief Egan. He is a black smith by trade and will return to his old position humbled in spirit and contented in mind.
 And now the board of commissioners can amuse themselves for another twelve months balloting for victim to fill the vacancy. A year ago John c. Baldwin was elected a member of the force. He purchased handsome new uniform and after patroling the streets seven days sent a little note to the chief and commissioners begging to be ex. cused. His successor was appointed June 8, after one hundred or more bal lots had been taken, the deadlock being broken by the vote of c. B.

FOURTEENTH CONVENTION.
The North America Turner's Union
 Meets in New York.

The North America Turner's Union
 Meets In New York.
 The fourteenth convention of the North America Turner's union opened ito session in New York Saturday night. There are over: 400 delegates present. The present convention of Turner's sur pass in importance any of the previous meetings of the kind. The principal sub- ject of discussion will be the proposition that 10000 Turner's of the United States shall amalgamate with the Amature Athletic union. Many delegates are op- posed, for sentimental reasons, to any such union. Others advocate it on the ground that the introduction of the sys- tematic turner training into the Amateur Athletic union would be of inestimable value to the rising generation of Ameri- can athletes. The convention will also discuss the advisability of the union of the Seminary for Gymnastic Instructors and the North American teachers semi nary, two western turner's institutions. The convention is expected to place itself on record in favor of women's suffrage and ballot reform, and against the pro- posed changes in the immigration and Naturalization laws. Sunday Monday and Tuesday, will be devoted to the transac- tion of business, and Wednesday to an excursion up the sound. Connecticut is represented by eighteen delegates.
