THE STREAMERS ON HEF HAT.

Here she comcs-the sweetest mi Id
Ever seen;
Note the happiness displayed
In her mien;
See the smile she cannot hide,
See her nose upheld with PRIDE
One would think she was bride
Or a queen.
Seel Her eyes with huge delight
Must inspect
All the big shop windows bright
Which reflect
Like mirror those who pass;
That her glances at the glass
Most immensely please the lass,
We suspect.
In ecstatic bliss she treads
Through the throng,
Women at her turn their heads
(Which ia wrong)
And with pangs Of envy gaze
AT the glory she displays;
Dudes behind her, all a-blaze,
Trot along
Don't you wonder why the miss
Is 80 proudi
Why she can't conceal her bliss
From the crowd?
Why the women eye her clothes,
Why she's followed by the beauX-
(Which should never, goodness knows,
Be allowcd)
Well, Wen tell you. Don't you see,
Don't you know,
Don't you understand that she
Isn't slow
In the fashion? From her hat
Uike herself, littlo fat
Gorgeous ribbon streamers pat
Make the show.
Yes, the streamers, extra long,
Lately grown,
Turn the heads of all the throng
And her own.
AS they flutter in the breeze
We the reins would like to seize
Just to drive her where we please
All alone.

THE ELECTION OF MR.. CLEVE-
LAND
LAND.

The election of Mr.. Cleveland is a
elements of grave uncertainty in bust
ness, finance and legislation. 1t sets
limit to an Administration which has
been prudent, conservative and pa
triotic, and under which the country
has been especially prosperous 1t
brings into power, SO far as the Exc
cutive and the House of Representa-
tives are concerned, a party whose
policy, as declared in its platform, is
distinctly inimical to the business and
industrial interests of the country.
We do not care to disguise our sense
of the seriousness of the situation.
But there is always restraining in
fuence in power, at least when it is
subject, as it is under our system of
government, to a frequent account
ing at the bar of public opinion. 1t is
an extraordinary combination of po-
litica1 forces which has given Mr..
Cleveland his victory. But, menac
ing as they may seem to be, they will
hardly be as destructive as their pro-
fessions, but they will be held in check,
to some extent, by apprehensions of
consequences. If the Democratic
party were 10 interpret the result Of
Tuesdays election as a warrant for
carrying out, literally and in detail,
the programme which it drew up at
Chicago, it would invite to itself at the
first opportunity as crushing defeat
as was ever experienced by a politi-
cal party. But it began apologizing
for, and explaining away, it's platform
almost as soon as it proclaimed it;
and it's policy, as foreshadoWed in
Mr. Cleveland's subdued and vacilla-
ting letter of acceptance, was diff
ferent thing from the manifesto which
was whooped through the Chicago
Convention. The responsibilities of
power will further moderate it's posi-
ton.
The Republican party has expert
enced defeat before, and has made it
the gateway to victory. Eight years
ago its enemies congratulated them
selves that they had given it death
blow, but it rallied at the next gener-
al election and possessed itself of all
the departments of Government for
the first time for a dozen years. 1t
will submit now to the discipline of
defeat with unshaken confidence in
its principles and its future There is
a to- morrow in politics. The ideas of
Sound finance, honest money, nrotec-

WHAT REPUBLICANS HAD TO CON
TEND WITH.

In the last great political battle the
republicans had a mighty undertak-
ing on their hands. The solid South,
with 159 votes, practically sure thing;
the old rank and file, rock ribbed de-
mocracy, who vote straight and sure;
the Peoples party combination, with
democrats in several western states;
the prohibitionists voting Office in
some close states; the great bulk Of
the Irish and other foreign elements
in the great cities; the influence of
the Catholics and the Lutherans on
school and religious questions; the
advantage Of having the political ma
chinery and the Tammany ring in
New York operating against Harrison,
and without doubt, an immense amount
of money used to purchase votes, all
operating to defeat the party of pro-
lection, honest money and free vote.
The wonder is not that the democrats
did well, but that they did not sweep
everything. But there always comes
a day when wrongs are righted and
when truth and justice prevail.

vote of 1888. The Indianan state COM
mittee assures the committee here
that Indiana has gone for Harrison.
Vermont gives about D, 900 majority
for the republican electors, falling
off of several thousand as compared
with 1888. Although republican upon
the national ticket by handsome
majority, Massachusetts reTelects
Governor Russell by greatly reduc-
ed plurality. The balance Of the state
ticket is republican. Connecticut, all
along considered a doubtful state,
gives Cleveland b between 5000 and 1000
plurality. Of the middle states Penn
sylvania alone is counted in the re-
publican ranks, with plurality of
about $1,000 votes. New York city
and Brooklyn gave the democratic
ticket a plurality of about 100,0 This
with a. decreased republican majority
in the country, as compared with
1888, enables the democrats to carry
the state by $4,000 plurality and over.
Delaware for a time was given to the
republicans, but later figures show
that it remains in the democratic
ranks by reduced vote, as does New
Jersey.
The south is solidly democratic, the
peoples party cutting no figure there
whatsoever. Everywhere south of
Pennsylvania, it is the old, old story
of large democratic majorities. But
it is the west that carries havoc and
ruin to all republican hope of victory.
Illinois, heretofore always republican
in presidential years, is democratic by
10000 plurality, and Wisconsin like
wise Indiana is undoubtedly demo-
cratic by small plurality. Of Michi-
gan's fourteen votes six or seven are
to be counted for Cleveland. Iowa
and Minnesota are safely republican
But Ohio, always republican in presi-
Dental year, is in doubt, with pos
sibility that it's electoral vote may be
added to the Cleveland column.
OF the other western states Colora-
do, Nebraska, Idaho and Nevada have
elected the peoples electoral ticket,
with possibility Of gaining electors
in the Dakotas and Oregon. The re-
suit is still in doubt in California, Wy
oming and Washington, with the
probabilities strongly in favor of the
in the last named state,
and of the democrats in the other two
states Kansas still in doubt
The above while substantially cor
rect is liable to change on account of
the very close vote in many states.

ton to industry and free and fair cleo
tions, for which the Republican party
stands, are not outworn or suppressed
ed. There will be a clearing of the
political atmosphere after awhile, and
the country will see plainly the mis-
take it makes in putting itself, for
even brief period, under Democratic
administration.
The Republican party has nothing
to apologize for or regret as regards
it's policy it's methods or it's candi-
dates. It's policy has been well tested,
and has redounded to the national
credit and prosperity. It's methods
are open to the light of day. It's can
didates have borne the severest scru-
tiny without detriment. The Admin
inistration of President Harrison has
been one of the purest, wisest and
strongest in our history. Mr.. Harri-
son will take with him, when he leaves
the Presidential office, the sincere re-
spect of the whole people, inspired
not less by the uprightness and digni-
ty of his character than by the range
and value Of his public services.
Our opponets will find the Republi-
can party a watchful antagonist, and
their lease Of power will not be long

PRESIDENT HARRISON AND THE
CAMPAIGN

Whatever may have been the result
of this election, Benjamin Harrison,
the President of the United States,
comes out of the contest in honor and
| in growing esteem on the part of citi-
zens, irrespective of their political af-
| fiations. He embraces in his char
acter the solid virtues that mark men
and gentlemen. His career in it's pub
lie aspects has won him distinction at
home and abroad; while in the rela-
tions of private life he has displayed
that earnestness Iand sincerity whic h
inspire confidence and promote ad-
miration. The republican party made
no mistake in elevating Benjamin
Harrison to the Presidency, as shown
by his triumphant administration,
soon to close-the most eventful and
important of any since the war-and
republicans made no mistake in nam
ing him as their standard bearer in
the recent contest. Aside from the
personal aspects of his recent over
shadowing bereavement, it was ex-
tremely unfortunate, politically con-
sidered, in that it removed from the
campaign during the critical weeks
Immediately preceding the election
the splendid personality Of the Presi-
dent
His utterances have never failed to
inspire that solid enthusiasm and con-
fdence which finds expression in
practical support and in votes. The
future historian cannot we'll omit ref
erence to the sad death in the White
House as an active, potent factor in
the result
The noble manner in which Presi
dent Harrison has conducted himself
during these trying weeks and months,
preserving his balance and self con-
troll, neither allowing the public SER
vice to suffer, nor yet unmindful of
the duty at his home, making no seem
ly effort for honors which he deemed
the province of the people to confer
all this attests anew the splendid
manhood of BEN jamin Harrison, whose
public career must ever rebound to
the credit of the republican party.
President Harrison grows daily in
the regard of the American people.
History will rank him on the list of
Americans greatest statesmen.
