The indiscriminate killing of the
Sioux Indians by United States soldiers
during the recent Dakota trouble was
severely criticised by humanitarians
generally, bat that had at least the ex-
cuSe that it was war BUT what can be
said in extenuation Of the deliberate at
tempt TO exterminate the whole tribe
since then? 1t is stated that the Sioux

'heir unsatisfactory pow-wow with the
great father. carried with them bushels
OF cigarettes for themselves and their
people. This may be termed refined
barbarity.

Seeming each phase of every life to gauge
With swift, unerring insight; ike star

And for each puzzle held the missing keyl

DIVERSE IDEALS,

| 1t is singular to note how different are
the ideals of greatness In various Sec
tons of the country. In New England
man is not considered fit for political
preferment unless he is graduate of
Harvard or a successful manufacturer.
In California, we are told, rising man
of that section has attracted attention to
himself solely by his habit of always
wearing rubbers, and of never appearing
IN public, summer or winter, without a
fur-lined overcoat adjoining his person.
Ohio accounts no man illustrious who
has not held cabinet Office, run for
governor, or been mentioned as a posi-
bic candidate for the presidency.
Kentucky's most illustrious are of
necessity colonies. Louisiana has no
opinion of man unless he has drawn a
cash prize in certain nameless institu-
ton or lost a dozen spoons through the
effects of another institution which it is
likewise preferable not to name. In
Georgia lie alone attains to the
acme Of worth who declines
to dine with northern monopolists,
while Virginia holds no man worthy of
preferment who is not either a Lee or,
at least an F. F. V. The notions of New
York, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Kan
sas are too we'll known to need mention
here. Suffice it to say that in no two
sections of our great and variegated
land are the accepted ideals of greatness
In any respect similar.
Perhaps this is why we have reached
that period in our national development
in which the surest road to oblivion is
through official life at Washington. and
in which Immortality has become a
merely local accomplishment

CLEvELAND'S VIEWS.

Tho Tariff and Safe Money Not Obsolete
Issues.
New York, Nov. Al Special -Ex-
President Grover Cleveland was seen at
his residence in Madison avenue to-day,
and gave his opinions of the result of
Tuesdays elections as follows:
''Of course every one has rigb t to
put his own estimate upon the result
and L am not anxious to obtrude nv
ideas; but it seems to me some things
ought to be no longer doubtful. Any
man who still thinks that tariff reform
is settled and an obsolete issue, or that
the Importance of sound and safe
money is question upon which the
people can be blinded, is either woe
fully wrong or dangerously dull,
ut seems to me, too, that the Demo
Gratis ought to be satisfied that staunch
adherence to the principles of their
party does not require the abuse of
those who show an inclination to help
us.
Il very much regret the defeat of
Governor Campbell. He has been a
brave and honest official. This and the
splendid canvass he made entitled him
to success. While the election of
Flower Russell and Boies ought to
cause the utmost rejoicing among Demo
Gratis. they should not forget that with
these things come obligations to be true
to tho people, honest in advocacy of our
principles and decent in all things"

1t is ono of the most sweeping Re-

but the Republicans confidently expect
an increased plurality from these coun-
ties this year.
NO DOUBT ABOUT BOIES ELECTION.
Dies MONIES, Iowa, Nov. 4.-lSpe-
ciall After the great battle of yester-
day the smoke is clearing away. Re-
publicans find themselves defeated and
the Democrats are beginning to cele-
brate their victory. Governor Boies
arrived in Des Moines to night from
Waterloo Democrats are preparing to
give him royal welcome. The streets
are packed with people shouting for
Boies.
At the Register Office complete re-
turns from SO counties have been
received. Up to o'clock there is a net
Democratic gain of SOC.
If this gain is kept up tonight in the
remaining l6 counties, his plurality will
BIO in the neighborhood of 5000, a
gain OF 1000 over two years ago.
Returns on the other State officers are
scattering. If Boies' plurality is S,OOO
as 1T now promises to be, the rest of the
Democratic ticket is elected by small
pluralities. Republicans have some
hopes for Van Houten, Lieutenant Gov
ernor, who is running ahead of Wheeler
IN tho precincts that have reported.
They also claim Sabin, Republican, for
Superintendent of Instruction.
The Democrats claim that their whole
State ticket is elected. 1t will tako
fuller returns than can now be obtained
TO decide the fate Of the ticket below
Governor.
In the lower house the Republicans
have gained Audubon, Adair, Adams,
Boone, Decatur, Floyd, Poweshsick and
KoSSuth,
The Democrats have gained Marion,
OBrien and Sioux. The parties were
equally divided two years ago, and tho
Republicans will, therefore, have a
clear majority. The senate is conceded
to be Democratic by one or two votes.
Tho Farmers Alliance candidate,
Westfall, for Governor, received about
Is, 600 votes in the State The Alliance
carried ono county for Governor,
Monona; one for representative, Mont
gomery, and Montgomery Mills soma
torial district
Tho prohibition vote has not been
reported except in few instances, but
1T IS probably very high. Chairman
Mack, of the Republican committee,
this evening comedies Boies' election by
5000 plurality, but claims the election
of the balance of the State ticket ey-
cept railroad commissioners for the Re-
publicans; also both houses of the legis-
lature. Chairman Fuller, of the Demo
cratic committee, claims all tho State
offices, but comedies the lower house
and says the senate is in doubt.
Fifty counties complete in Iowa, out
of ninety in the State. give Boies, for
governor, plurality over Wheeler of
LASS, net gain this year of $3.50.
The remaining counties gave Boies, in
1889, plurality of 1861.

DIES MONIES, Nov. Especial Tho
Republican State committee now claim
the election of Van Houston for Lieu
tenant-Governor. They also claim that
the house is Republican by four. that the
senate is in doubt with the probability
of tho presiding officer being a Republi-
can. Up to one o'clock less than one
third Of the State has been heard from.
Returns are very slow.
Compilations show that tho Demo
Gratis have made large gains in the
counties of Decatur, Dickinson, Cass,
Emmett, Marion, Wayne. Palo Alto,
Pottawattomie, O'Brien, Dubuque. Des
Moines, jackson, johnson, Carroll, War
rem, Fayette, Marshall, Woodbury.,
Scott and Lee.
The Republican gain has generally
been in Black Hawk, Marshall, Polk
and few interior counties containing
no large cities. 1t is estimated that
the total vote will reach 100000, the
largest ever cast in Iowa.
Dubuque City reports an increased
vote of more than one thousand over
two years ago, viii III, as that city is
overwhelmingly Democratic means
largely increased majority for Boies.
Burlington reports an increased major
ity for Boies of over 200 over two years
ago.
The Democratic strongholds along the
river and in tho river towns, where the
prohibitory law is particularly obnox-
ious, have largely increased the ma jori-
ties given Governor Roles two years ago
Official and unofficial returns from "a
out of 90 counties In the State give a
plurality Of l5.i5s for Boies. The same
counties in 1889 gave Boies plurality
of 9.6ls. making u net Democratic gaia
