THERE is not a ray Of comfort in this
overwhelming defeat for Mr. Harrison
He has drawn the most disastrous blow
upon his party that it ever had. It
seems like fatal. final blow. Mr. Har-
rison cannot claim exemption from the
awful condemnation. He was part Of
IT, His personal virtues which are ad
visable were not forceful enough,
his moral character was not strong
enough, his political shrewdness was not
keen enough, to perceive much less
check the errors Of his party. He not
only yielded 20 extreme partisanship: he
often led in it, President Harrison has
not improved his opportunities TO
improve the civil service. He
put unworthy men in his cabinet aud
at the head Of important departments.
He was "a radical in the McKinleyism
which Blaine said was Infamous" he
was equally radical in the Force bill of
which even Senator Quay had the politi-
cal wisdom TO perceive the error. Presi
dent Harrison cannot escape behind his
blameless personal character These are
not only errors of intelligence they are
breaches Of good morals. 1t was not
good morals to support the infamies OF
the Mckinley bill. President Harrison
supported them and signed the bill which
was bought and paid for" with protec
tion money at the expense of his mora
character or of his intelligence If h'
did not know that the miserable humbul

he lacks intelligence; il he did know &
he lacks moral rectitude. The vote o
the people, the detection Of so man,

that President Harrison either did no
know or did not care.

TIE result Of the election in Delaware
is gratifying to all good citizens. The

the electoral vote Of the state to
Cleveland and Stevenson. It is graft.

they elected, If any candidate at
all, the only good one they had
on their ticket Pierce Gould.

Willis after the scandal Of his attempt
to purchase Cyrus Ward, even II before
that, for Hon. John w. Causey. We
