oeor+s The odds against which they have to
contend this year are very great. A national
nortv rarely escapes considerable loss from
rat,,ral causes in the second year of now
administration. The crops have proved par
t;oI failure and there are still living some lineal
descendants of the fisherman who voted against
the party IN power because there were no eele
~ b;s eel pots that year. All the inconvenience
and all the real or imaginary burdens OF new
Tariff bill are felt as soon as it goes into ef-
fect and are then enormously exaggerated by
individual greed, while its beneficial results do
NOT naturally appear until later. No new adj
ustn,ent of duties can please everybody, and
those who are displeased have grudges to sat
sfy. while other people have as yet only bright
or hopes for their country.
INT there are some highly encouraging
svmptOms In not a few instances the beneficial
effects of the new Tariff bill can already be
uerceived by those who look for them without
nreiudice. A great many. works of various
kinds which were idle and waiting a month
ago have already resumed operations Scarce
" day passes without Geographic mention of
new works begun in some part of the country
in direct consequence of duties which afford
larger encouragement tldu DtloI0 vi o"Si
market for producers The number of addi-
tional workers for whom employment is thus
afforded must be in the aggregate large al
ready. Their consumption already swells the
demand for farm or other products of home in
dustry, and in the building and equipment OF
new works there is already increased demand
for the labor of American mechanics. Amerl-
can barley along the Canadian border has
,apidly advanced in value. at some points hav-
ing about doubled and the stronger demand
for many other farm products is already per-
ceptible.
But the great reason for confidence is that
the Republican party has bravely and man
fully appealed 70 the intelligence and patriot
ism of the people, and meets with ready re-
sponse. 1t has trusted the country before, in
circumstances far more trying, and has not
found its confidence misplaced.

In order to appreciate the force OF these de-

that the Coercion law has been passed ana ad-
ministered for the sole purpose OF preventing
outbreaks of lawlessness and restoring the au-
thority of law. When Mr.. Gladstone, as the
leader of the English Liberals, declares that the
state of affairs is so bad that the Irish are
ustiged in hating the law, and that the GoV-
eminent which affects to be striving to Ne

PROSPECTS,.

prophcey on the threshold of an election
is not often of any use. IT it creates false
confidence, or slackens the efforts Of friends it
is worse than useless. 1T is, therefore, enough
at this time to say that the prospect for an
other Republican Congress is far more en-
couraeing than it was one month or six months
ago. So much any observer may gather from
the tone of Democratic comments.
Six months ago, before the new Tariff bill
had been passed, there was no sort of doubt
among Democrats about the political com
pexion of the next House. They were abso-
utely sure of success. The partisan reds-
trictngs in Ohio, Maryland Tennessee and
Kentucky were considered certain TO gain for
the Democrats at least ten seatS in the House ;
other seats were sure to be gained at the South
where DrmL Gratis can count to suit themselves
Others still were recloned as surely gained by
various forms of Republican disafection, or
nv opposition to the Tariff and Election bills
proposed in the House.
Months have passed and now that the cleo
tons are close at hand the tone OF wellAn-
formed Democrats has materially changed
They were absolutely certain of 80 majority
in the House now they are hopeful of narrow
and scanty majority, and yet betray not little
fear lest, in each of many districts which they
have counted upon the Republicans may some
how succeed. Thus it is noteworthy that, al
though Major Mckinley has about 5000 ma
iority to overcome in the new district con-
trived expressly for his defeat one we-iri
formed Democratic journal expresses the Opin-
ion that he will probably "pu through" while
Others are raising the customary silly cry about
"the lavish use of money" there. Experienced
persons have observed that whenever the Dem
ocrats are about to suffer heavy and crushing
loss they prepare the way by this chatter about
Republican money.

GENERAL KETCHAMS 70 URTEENTH TERM

The Democrats OF the XVIth Congressional
District have displayed commendable good
sense in withdrawing the candidate whom they
had put in the field against General Ketcham.
The committee to whom the Democratic Con-
ycntion assigned the task of finding man to
oppos, the General. after a weariSome search
through Columbia Putnam and Duchess coun-
lies. finally succeeded in inducing Charles Aus
tin 10 accept the empty honor but that gentle
man, upon realizing that his canvass was abb
soutey perfunctory in character, resigned, and
so the way of the veteran leader to the Capitol
,emains free and unobstructed.
General Kctcham has had a remarkable pub
lie career. For nearly forty years he has been
in active service, and in all that time be has
been defeated at the polls but once. That was
in his famous campaign Of 1872, when he was
beaten by about 500 votes, at an expense, it
was said of over 100000 to the successful
candidate. His nomination for Congress in
1864, in recognition of his gallant services on
the battlefield, was made unanimously, and
avery time since then, fourteen times in
all, his constituents have awarded him the
honor by Acolamston. When it il remem.

bered that the district Is, or rather was, nasa'
raly Democratic and that previous to zen
eral Ketchams election no man ever repre-
sented it more than two terms in succession
tho Generals continued success will be more
Knit the reason of it is simple and obvious
f,eneral Ketcbam represents in Congress, not
the members of his party only, but the people
of the entire district. His constituents, Dem,
ocrats as we'll as Republicans, understand and
appreciate this fact fully. They know General
Ketcbam thoroughly. They trust him, and
lust so long as he is willing to serve them they
will doubtless rejoice to have him represent
them in Congress.

MR. GLADSTONE IN MIDLOTHIAN.

Mr.. Glads.one's voice may be impaired by
age and physical intirmity, but his logic is as
Teen and merciless, his argumentative force
rs overwhelming as in his best years. His ar

There were two general counts reputation OF
marty pledges and miSgovernment. Each OF
these counts was pressed with luminous sim
picity and cumulative force.
In 1886. as Mr. Gladstone presents the case
the Tories defeated Home Rule by pcdging
themselves TO govern Ireland without Coercion

large advances from the Treasury for buying

IN 1885 the Salisbury Government had allowed
the Gladstone Coercion Act to lapse by limita-
ton. The Tories were then in alliance with
the Irish Nationalist and doing everything in
their power to cOnciliate them in the hope Of
defeating the Liberals in the elections of that
wear. When i'm 1886 Mr.. Gladstone appealed

oontended that 1t was not a case of excluded

hedges Not one of them has been kept. As

Glad tidings come from the XVIII Congress
District Of New-York This district consists Of
the counties Of Orange, Rockland and Sullivan
and is one Of the closest in the State the present
Republican Congressman having been chosen by a
plurality of only "a. II is pretty clear. how
ever, from the letter from Newbnrg, which we
print to-day that the district will send another
Republican TO the Lid Congress. Our party
friends in Orange have first-class candidate in
Clarence Lcxow, and they working for his
election with unanimity and enthusiasm. The
tariff is playing an important part in the campaign.
since the county contains q large number Of
important business interests which have been
stimulated by the passage of the Mckinley bill.
Both employers and employees naturally desire the
success of the party which believes in protecting
American labor and American capital. There is
reason to believe that the other two counties Of
the district will do as well as Orange In that
event, the XVIII will be all right. The situation
is full OF hope, hut success is conditioned upon
hard and unremitting eyertion from now until
election day.

last evening at the big meeting held by
the County Democracy in the Cooper Union
Like all the Anti.Tammany meetings in this
campaign, it was well attended and highly sue
cessful. The document given to the public rs
Mayor Grants letter Of acceptance furnished
the text for MIR. SCOTS address, and he made
excellent use of the material thus supplied.
The alleged achievements of Mr.. Grants ad:
ministration were ruthlessly analysed, and
shown to have small basis in fact. A telling
contrast was drawn between this letter OF the
MAYORS and the promises made by him under
like circumstances two years ago. The latest
letter furnishes an excellent target for de-
