THE ELECTION.

The senatorial election yesterday,
Notwithstanding it's local character, as
sumed an important bearing from the
fact of being viewed by both parties as
an index of the fall campaign. The
Democracy bent every nerve, and
made the greatest effort of their lives
to save the district, which they have
done, but not without a sacrifice of
time and money far greater in proper
ton than the outlay Of the Republicans.
That the contest in the district was
made Braeg's S fght for the United States
senatorship, added largely to the i'm
portance placed upon the election, and
helped to ell the Solliday vote con-
slderably. 1t was very apparent all
through the canvass, that the personal
lty of the two candidates for senator
was lost sight of in the Bennett law and
United States senatorship issues, which
were dragged into the campaign. In
the five wards of this city in Jefferson
county, Solliday's vote is ninety-six
greater than Peck's vote in 1890, and
Kispert's vote is sixteen less than
Hoard's. The majority in this senator
ial district for Greene, Democrat, over
Jesse Stone, Republican, was LIZA
Over 200 of the votes cast in the city
yesterday were based on affidavits.
The following are the returns of the
city:

Held For Treason.

PrrrsBURG, Oct, Nothing done since the
first trouble at Homestead, except, possibly.
the attempt on the life of II. C. Friek, has
caused more talk than the act Of Chief
Justice Paxson in issuing warrants for the
arrest Of thirty three Homestead men charg-
ed with treason. This is the first time that
the charge of treason has been brought in
any State for acts arising from strike or
labor trouble, and it IS the talk among the
attorneys that it certainly is proper that the
great industrial State of Pennsylvania should
be first to settle this question IS to whether
armed resistance to law is treason. All the
judges of the city, consulted over the cases
yesterday in their chambers in the court
house. District Attorney Burleigh and
Lawyer P. c. Knox were sent for, and held
a long consultation with the Chief Justice,
after which the Justices again consulted,
and then District Attorney Burleigh and Mr..
Knox were instructed by the Chief Justice
to prepare infomatioas, and County Detec-
tive Beltzhoover was ordered by the Chief
Justice to make information and the Chief
Justice signed the warrants for the arrest OF
the accused. Il is not likely that any
application for release on bail viii be made
to day, but applications viii be heard Mon
day. The most novel part of the cases will
be their subsequent dispositions The Chief
Justice will hear application for bail and
before the cases go to the grand jury he viii
call that body before him and deliver TO it a
special charge on treason, fully defining the
crime and commenting on theeases. Should
true bills be found, proceeding never seen
before will occur. Chief Justice Paxson, an
ex-oficio judge of the court of oyer and
terminer, will sit in that court for Alleg-
heny county and try the cases. This will
indeed be a novel and heretofore unknown
thing and will attract the attention Of the
world and make the cases by reason Of their
peculiar circumstances of worldwide noto-
riety.
Messrs. Brennan and Cox, attorneys for
the strikers, are highly indignant over what
they term persecution Of the defendants, and
made some very uncomplimentary remarks
about the cases and those engaged in pro
scouting them. They claim to have no fear
about the outcome and say II viii not be
possible to make treason out OF the acts OF
the Advisory Committee. They hinted that
the long contemplated seuits for treason
against the Carnegie people would now be
pushed. o'Donnell, Critchlow and Clifford,
three of the accused, are now in jail, max
ing nine already under arrest. 1t is expect
ed that more arrests viii be made to-day.

A Campaign Of cowaraice.

one feature is prominent both in the let
ter of acceptance Of the free trade candidate
for the Presidency and in the arguments of
bis supporters, and that is a cowardly pur-
pose to achieve by indirection what they
dare not openly maintain. The course Of
the free traders, Cleveland, Russell and the
res-, reminds one very much Of the attitude
Of the Copperhead Democracy in 1864, when
Adlai Stevenson and his associates were eI-
citing among the brave men at the front the
feelings expressed in the old war song:
Tell the traitors all around you
That their cruel words we know,
In every battle kili our soldiers
By the help they give the foe.
The Democracy then was for peace with
secession as the Democracy to-day is for
free trade. But the Copperhead speakers
and writers did not dare to come out in plain
terms for what they wanted, so they de
nounced the war, and did what they could
in an indirect and cowardly way to cripple
the arm Of the government. The loyal
people, however, saw the real issue at stake

moment that the result of the election of
November, 1864 was known, the final col
lapse Of the Confederacy began, and the in
surrection terminated few months later.
The enemy by which the industries Of
America are menaced to-day is just as dan
gerous to the welfare of the american peo-
pie as the enemy of 1861, and the free traders
Of Crest Britain, ike the following Of Jeffer-
son Davis, look for success 10 the treachery
and misrepresentation of their allies in the
councils Of Democracy. As the leopard can
not change its spots, so the Democracy can
not change its methods. and cowardly sub
terfuge Is still Characteristic of the champi-
ons Oftree trade now, just as it was charac-
teTistic of the champions of disunion and
free trade thirty years ago. The same COW
ardly tactics are pursued, the same fraudu-
lent methods are resorted TO- snd the same
result viii be recorded at the close of the
polls in November. 1t is a mistake for q
political candidate to act upon the assump-
ticn that the American people are fools.
