The Sanity John Wanamaker does
not like the secret ballot. He says sit
was Booth who struck blow at
American freedom in 1865, and 1 am
afraid it was another booth which
overthrew, Tuesday the party of anti
slavery and protection to American
industries"
1t takes no very careful reading
between the lines to understand that
Sanity John, does not approve of the
"free ballot and the fair count" that
the "God and morality party" have
been clamoring for so loudly. The
eight to seven Electoral Commission
suits the compiler of'the Choice Gems
of Sacred Song" much better.

The issues upon which the Repub-
lican party went before the people are
as completely settled as those it car
ried into the civil war. The only
difference being the people decided in
favor of the issues of 1860 and against
those of 1892. The Republican party
must find a new set of principles to
bring before the voters of the country
orldisintegrate. This is'all there is in
it. The promises of the Democratic
party as set forth in its platform and
emphasized in Mr.. Cleveland's letter
of acceptance must be religiously kept
or when we go before the country
four years hence we will be as igno-
miniously hurled from place and pow
er as were the Republicans last Tues

WANT TARIFF REFORM.

The Chicago Single Tax Club has
adopted the following resolutions
whereas, the National Democratic
platform denounces protection as a
fraud and a robbery, and declares it
to be unconstitutional, and with these
declarations, submitted the matter to
the people, therefore,
Resolved, That the tidal wave
which swept the country last Tuesday
was a righteous condemnation of pro-
lection;
"Resolved, That we denounce. as
false to the pledges of the Democratic
party, animical to its continued sue
cess, any utterance on the part of its
accredited leaders which tends to JUS
tify perpetuation of any vestige of the
protective system.
"Resolved, Labor has demanded
justice when monopolists seek pro-
lection they should ask it by its right
name, and at the place provided for
the needy, and not strive to turn the
National Government into gigantic
pauper institution"

The Cabinet states are being fig
ured out by the knowing ones. Here
is one that seems to be popular: Sec
rotary of State, Thos. f. Bayard, of
Delaware; Secretary of the Treasury,
Jno. l.. Mitchell or ex-POstmaster-
General Villas, of Wisconsin Secre-
tary of the Navy, William c. Whit
ney, of New York Secretary of War,
w B. Franklin, Of New Hampshire !;
Secretary Of the Interior, Isaac p.
Gray, Of Indiana; Attorney General,
Congressman VIM. l.. Wilson, of
West Virginia, or Congressman CuI-
bosom, of Texas; Postmaster General,
Don NJ. Dickinson. Cleveland has
way of his own of knocking all such
states into smithereens.
1t has been the generally accepted
belief in political circles that ex-Sec.
Rotary Whitney, who has done so
much TO achieve the sweeping victory
tor Cleveland, would be offered the
place of Secretary Of State by the
President, but those who appear to
know something about it say Mr..
would prefer to be Secretary
of the Navy, if he enters the Cabinet
at all. But again it is authorita-
lively CD stated that neither Whitney
nor Dickinson viii accept place in
the Cabinet.

1t is now conceded on all sides
that the Democrats will have a
majority in the Senate as well as the
House. This gives them the power for
the first time in 80 years to pass any
bill desired. March A, 1898, there
will be twenty-five vacancies to be
filled in the Senate, of these the Dem
ocrats are sure Of thirteen, the Repub-
licans nine and the Peoples party
three. This gives the Democrats "a
in number in the Senate, the Repub-
licans 40 and the Peoples party d..
The probability is, the Populists will
mainly vote with the Democrats, so
that fair working majority will be
assured to us.

HILLS TALK.
He Says the Democrats Must,Carry
CutaThelrsPledges.

Senator Hill, speaking of Cleve-
lands election, says: at is not only
personal triumph of Ex-President
Cleveland, and just tribute 10 him,
but it is vindication of the Demo-
cratic principles which he champions.
The people were opposed TO Force
Bill, and desired tariff reform, and
upon those two issues we have won the
victory. Unquestionabl ythe Federal
election issue kept several Southern
States with us which might otherwise
have gone for the Peoples Party. l
trust thai our victory will carry with
it the control of the United States
Senate, which will enable us to place
Democratic legislation upon the Fed
eral statute books.
We must carry out our pledges by
reform in the tariff and reducing Fed
eral taxation; not by harsh and ex-
treme measures, but upon the conserv-
alive line indicated in our platform
and in the speeches of our candidates.
If we shall secure the Senate we can
show the people the beneficent results
Of Democratic politics, and the good
that we can accomplish will insure us
the power for many years. / think
the Democrats would prefer a vigor-
Gus and aggressive policy, and to that
end the existing Federal election law
should be repealed. 1t is vexatious,
arbitrary and unnecessary measure,
capable of great injustice and abuse,
and, in the hands of unprincipled Off
cials, may become an instrument of
aggression. The manner in which it
was sought to be used against lis by
our opponents on election day fur
nishes an abundant argument for its
repeal"
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1892-11-15

The Advocate returns thanks to the
host of friends who by letter and by
word of mouth are expressing so free
iy what they are generally pleased to
call 1.-THE splendid work it did for the
cause Of Democracy in the late can
vas" We are extremely grateful for
the appreciation our efforts for De-
mocracy have received. We, in COM
mon with other Democratic papers of
the district, have done what we could
to educate voters along the lines of
what we are firmly persuaded are for
the best interest of the people Of our
common country. Nothing pleases us
more than the evidence given by the
vote of this and other counties, where
our circulation is heaviest, that we
succeeded in destroying the influence
of our contemporary, that has endors-
ed and advocated all the worst here
sizes of the Republican party. You
will always find the ADVOCATE stand
ing along the lines of the interests of
its people and never arrayed against
them.

Col. Laban T. Moor. peadS

Hon. Laban T. Moore died at fiN
home in Catlettsburg of heart failure,
on Wednesday night, aged Ga. Col.
Moore had suffered severe attack of
pneumonia and was not able to with
stand the shock of the disease.
Hon. Laban T. Moore was born
January 13, 1929, in Cabell county,
Va, and was of German parentage.
After completing his education, which
was obtained chiefly at Marietta Col
lege, he began the practice of law, and
was located for time in this city.
He afterward moved to Louisa.
Lawrence county, and while there
was the Wing candidate in 1859 for
Congressman, from what twas then
sour district" His race was mem
orable one, and is often spoken off by
our people. He was elected, and it
was during this time that he deliver
ed his celebrated speech on ."An
Undivided Country" AT the expira-
ton of his term, he was offered the
denomination, but declined the honor.
AT the beginning of the war he
raised and became Colonel of the
Fourteenth Kentucky United States
Infantry. For many years he had
resided in Catlettsburg, and his ability
as lawyer and his fame as All orator
have made his name familiar all over
the country. In 1856 Col. Moore was
married to Miss Sarah Everett, of
Virginia. Five daughters were born
to them. He served with distinction
in the State Senate and late Consti-
tutional Convention.

Probably the largest financial win
ner on the election is Mike Dwyer, the
well-known turfman of New York.
1t l. said on good authority that he
will pocket gain of nearly $4,000.
Dwyer placed his money in every
conceivable way. He bet on the gen
eral result, the States of New York
and New Jersey, the city and county
majorities and Clevelaud's majority
in Indiana. lie has won nearly every
bet he made. Joseph j. O'DOnohue
is another heavy winner, his figures
being placed at $4,000. He bet a
great deal on the result in Indiana.

Out Of all the gloom of defeat the
Republicans can shout mighty loud
over the election of Silas Adams in
the Eleventh district. The gallant
Hindman couldn't break into this
rock-ribbed and steel-barred Repub-
lican stronghold. But the Hon. Silas
will feel mighty Lonesome when he
gets to the House and gazes upon the
aching void on the Republican side of
the chamber.

THE CAUSE OFT.
Secretary Chas. Foster says:

Secretary Chas. Foster says:
There were three classes of people
who voted the Democratic ticket. One
was set of manufacturers, who got
tired of labor troubles, and who came
to the conclusion that free trade was
better for them, because it would re-
duce wages and thus compensate for
the reduction of tariff. Another class
concluded that the Mckinley bill was
too high. The third was cheap labor.
That class thought the profits made by
the manufacturers were not properly
distributed; that proprietors got too
much and they too little"
Jerry Rusk says:
"We are cleaned out, that's all there
is about it," said he, referring to Tues
day. "In my opinion, the tariff was
the whole and sole cause of it. There
has been howl about the tariff every
where, and then the Homestead affair
made the laboring class discontinued.
Undoubtedly there has been change
in public sentiment as to the tariff"

A press dispatch mentions the Pc
culiar case of Judge Edward I. Lane,
of Cass county, Mo. The Judge was
serving sentence in Jail for contempt
of the United States Court in refus-
ing to Issue special tax levy, but
was elected to the Legislature by the
largest majority ever given in the
county.
Judge Lane is a native of this
county, and has wide circle Of rela-
tiyes here and in Bath. He was here
on visit to this section a year or two
since, and renewed an acquaintance
with his boyhood friends. The
trouble for which he and two other
Judges are in contempt is their re-
fusal as County Judges to issue tax
levy for the payment of a railroad
tax; their county not having re-
ceived an equivalent for the bonds
issued, fora road never built. Rather
than see his people unjustly oppressed.
he and his confreres said they would
rot in Jail. Judge Lanes term as
County Judge expires Jan. /, when,
upon payment of $500 fine he will
be released.

The victory of Hazelrigg over Holt
in the First Appellate district is al
most as stupendous, in proportion, as
the results in the National election.
The present incumbent had an ac-
knowledged majority of 2,670 votes
Given to Wood over Brown only two
years ago. to start with; Holt had the
backing Of the belief of nearly every
Democrat and Republican outside of
this district that his position was i'm
pregnable (; he had been making him.
self solid by his electioneering for the
past eight years; he had command of
a practically unlimited amount of
money. Yet in the face of all this
and more Hazelrigg without money,
and in spite of the overwhelming
odds against him., turns down that
majority and scores victory that
gladdens the heart of every Democrat
in this district. The news seems too
good 10 be true. But we can positively
assure our readers that Hazelrigg has,
in spite of the overwhelming odds
against him, beaten his opponent out
of sight. Judge Hazelrigg bears his
victory modestly and save that he is
exceedingly grateful for the high
honor conferred on him is no whit
different from what he was before he
became a candidate. One thing is
especially noticeable; even his
warmest Democratic supporters are
not more demonstrative in their con-
CALCULATIONS than are the better class
of Republicans in this county.
