Has Some Views About the Result, and
Doesn't MIncs Words.
TOPEKA, KAN, Nov. 1l.-Unitcd States
Senator B. W. Perkins, who is in Topeka
this afternoon, in an interview with an
Associated Press reporter, said:
al believe our defeat is due to the
rainbow chasing OF tho Republican ma
tional committee. Instead OF giving
their attention to the Republican sec
ton of tho country they neglected and
overlooked the Republican states al
most entirely. They dissipated and
wasted their efforts where there was no
reason to expect Republican SUCCESS.
Instead OF aiding Kansas and the Re-
publican states OF the northwest, and
looking alter Western New York and
Ohio, they wasted their strength in
Tennessee, North Carolina, Alabama,
West Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey
and Missouri. The result Of thls,is the
election OF Cleveland.
"I think when the vote Of New York
is analysed it will be shown that Cleve-
land's vote is no larger than it was
four years ago, and that Harrison's
failure TO carry the state is the result
OF the iailuro OF Republicans to organ
ize in the country districts. and attend
the polls. think the truth when
ascertained will show that not a vote
has been changed in Ohio, although
We have lost tho state.
"Three days before election the ma
tional Democratic committee gave pub
lie notice that they expected to carry
Ohio by seeing that ali the Democrats
voted, while the Republicans. in their
apathy and ovor-conhdence, were do
ing nothing. This notice was given in
time to have allowed the national
committee and the Republican COM
mittee OF Ohio that they be awake to
the situation, to have gotten out their
yoles and saved the state"

which would offset Republican gains
outside at all events, leaving small
plurality for either candidate.

CoLuNBus, o., Nov. l1.-Claims are
oven at Republican and Democratic
headquarters to-day and each insists on
the honors. After two days and nights
Of figuring and telesraphing, the ques-
ton as to which party carried Ohio is
no nearer solution than it was on the
night OF tho election. Both parties,
however, have reduced the size of the
plurality. The Republicans claim to
have official returns from seventy-one
counties and reliable semi-official re-
ports from the remaining seventeen.
On these Chairman Dick claims the
election OF the Republican state ticket
by over LOO plurality and that the
lowest OF the Harrison electors will
have $50. This is q material scaling
down from yesterday. The Democrats
claim 1000 plurality for the Cleveland
electors, but do not offer details as to
counties.
1t now seems certain that the electors
will be divided. Seward aud Danford
respectively on tho head oil the Demo.
cratic and Republican electoral tickets,
are ahead OF the others because the
electors made the error in marking the
Australian ballot, putting the cross in
front OF the name OF the first elector in.
stead of in the circlo. Unless subse-
ouent changes run up the plurality for
one or the other parties to q figure bor-
dering on the thousands, both Danford
and Seward will be members Of the

PAREERsBURa, W. Va, Nov. H.
Old Wood still stands serene amid tho
general political wreck, and points with
q smile TO the fact that the Republicans
only lost the criminal judge, the
county commissioner and the prosecut-
ing attorney.
Judge j. N. Jackson is elected crimi-
nal judge over Judge Loomis, young
Walter McDougle carries of the prose-
cutting attorneyahip over j, W. Van
dervort. and Ran Rector goes into the
county court over 7. A. Black. We
elect Republican sheriff, three mem
bees OF the legislature, two school
commissioners, surveyor, Justices con-
stables, etc. The fact remains, how
ever, that the usual Republican majors
ty was cut down fearfully. and the
tidal wave came near enguling tho
whole business,
In the two counties adjoining Wood
and in Wood tho vote for sheriff was
exceedingly close. Dudley, Republican,
IN Wood, is elected by a majority OF
thi-teen; Ogden, Republican, in Pleas
ans, by four votes, and Rathbone, Re-
publican, in Writ, by seventeen.
Already the Democrats arc on the
alert for the spoils that now, by the
rules OF war belong TO them. For Cnp-
tain Hozen's place in the postofice, the
applicants are numerous and growing.
Among them are Colonel Thomas G.
Smith, Captain A. n. Williams, Judge
4. I. Quinn and George Tavenner.
Tavenner claims that the place has
been promised him and that hc as good

Election.
NEW YoRK, Nov. l1.-President Har-
rison talked freely to-day about tho re-
cont defeat of his party and the causes
which brought it about, Gays dispatch
from Washington to the Herald.
iFrhe overwhelming defeat of the Re-
publican party" the President said,
twas due mainly to the position Of
party on tariff question. The Republi-
cans had forced this issue to an ex-
treme which evidently did not meet
with the approval OF the people"
The inevitable result. il the party was
to hope for a renewal Of power, was u
modification of this position, but not
renunciation altogether Of the protec-
tive tariff policy.
President Harrison has very decided
views as to the conduct oil
the campaign. He does not think
very much OF Chairman Carter,
Of the Republican national committee.
He consented to Mr.. Carter's appoint
ment only whenit became evident that
no more acceptable man could be found.

The result in the First congressional
district will not be definitely known
until the official returns are canvassed.
The delay in getting the reports from
Braxton and certain districts in Wetzel
counties, where gains were expected
for Doyener, is a reminder of the ex-
perience OF 1888 when delays were con-
venlent and aided the Democracy to
show a plurality for Pendloton on the
face of the returns when everybody
knew that MIR. Atkinson had legiti-
mate plurality. There is reason to be-
lieye that in Wetzel Captain Dovener
received a better vote than the returns
show. However, the figures which arc
at hand are given below and may be
taken for what they are worth until
the official returns are in. 1t is re-
garded US little strange that the Off
cial returns from the county of Wetzel
should be held back so long. The
figures so far given, but which are sub
ice. to change, are as follows:

THE ovERCRoWDED CITIES.

There is hardly city in the United
States which does not contain more
people than can get a fair honest liv-
ing, by labor or trade, in the best times.
When times of business depression
come there is large class that must be
helped, to keep them from cruel suffer
ing. Still the cities grow. while whole
regions OF the country especially it's
older portions are depopulated year
by year. Yet the fact is patent to-day
that the only prosperous class is the
agricultural. We have now the anoma-
ly of thrifty farmers and starving
tradesmen. The agricultural classes Of
the West are prosperous. They had a
good crop last year, and have received
good prices for all their products: and
while the cities are in trouble. and
manufacturers may be running on half
time, or not running at all, the Western
farmer has money in his pocket, and a
ready market for everything he has to
sell. The country must be fed, and he
feeds it. The city family may do
without new clothes. and thousand
luxurious appliances, but it must have
bread and meat. There is nothing that
can prevent the steady prosperity of
the American farmer but the combina-
tions and corners" of middle-men.

Honesty is always the best policy, and
a polite man. so far as his deeds are
concerned. may conform his ordinary
conduct to this principle. But when it
comes to a pinch, when he reaches an
exigency where the right requires a
sacrifice of himself, either his insight
or his heart will fail him. Sacrifices
are not accomplished simply because
occasions demand them. The spirit of
self-sacrifice, the remuneration in the
inner soul of every interest of self, must
be the abiding principle of life before
any occasions can call it forth. \ man.
therefore. who is only polite cannot be
trusted in an emergency. Hence. it is
never safe to commit great interests of
state or indeed, any other great inter-
est to such man. The great OppOr-
tunity is a great temptation which is
sure to blind him. and then to lead him
astray. He may be brilliant. versatile,
widely acquainted with state procedure.
but unless he is capable of surrending
his own advantage to the public good
capable of yielding himself entirely to
his duty--he will be wiser counselor
in private life than in official station.
