THE Democratic JERSEY City NEWS was SO
cock sure OF the result that it cried, on election
day: "How the Journal will squeal tomorrow"
Squeal, you see is not the word state Gazette.
Well, you didn't hear us squeal any
way, did you? We know how to take
our medicine.
BY the way, the Journal did squeal
in spite of its victory, squealed, as the
common phrase hath it, like a stuck
pig. The odd part of the whole affair
is that all the victors are going about
town ~squealing as if they had been
beaten.
So far as we can see. all the decency,
not to speak of magnanimity, has
been on the Democratic side. There
certainly never were mor ungenerous
victors than those of Tuesday.
If Colonel Wanser had been beaten,
everyone will believe us. we would
never have heaped up offensive cpl
thets upon him as the inexpressible
cads who write the Journal did on Mr..
McDermott, Wednesday and yester-
day.

Yes, Brother, Colonel Toffey was in

very hotbed of political crime. He
carried it for Wanser.

The First Fruits of the Defeat.

The First Fruits of the Defeat.
No better lesson can be conveyed to
the Democrats who voted against
Colonel Wanser than to lay before
them in cold type the comments made
by the Republican press throughout
the State upon the victory which
their most unfortunate votes secured
for the general enemy. These COM
ments may show them the fatal effect
of their conduct in voting thus at such
a time as this, when the Presidency,
the Governorship and the representa-
ton Of the State in the United States
Senate are seriously compromised.
This was no "off year, in which to
try experiments.
These comments of the Republican
press may have a good effect upon
Democrats who are inclined to go
back on the party. They may rally
them to Loyalty support their leaders
and the party nominees in the fall.
They are assuredly enough to make
the mildest Democrat devote himself
to the cause until the blot of Tues
days defeat is wiped out in signal tri-
umph.
To begin with the State Gazette, this
is the manner i'll which it takes adj
vantage of the sitaation:-

NOUS in the State Gazette with the
words democratic Party" We have
left many choice flowers OF rhetoric
out of the above. We have just
printed enough to let democrats see
how Republican papers exult over
this event, and the presaees of future
victory that they base thereon.
Here is a specimen from the Trenton
Press. which, though only a sort of
bantam, can as loud as anyone;-
This is the golden opportunity for the Repub-

MURDER CASES.
Four of Them Set for Trial In the Lat

Four of Them Set for Trial In the Lat
ter Part of May.
T#ere was quite a long wrangle in
Judge Van Fleets court yesterday be-
tween the lawyers engaged in the case of
III. j. Palmer, charged with the murder
OF Charles W. Phleger.
A. L. Hart, of Palmer's counsel. pleaded
with the court not to force Palmer to a
too speedy trial. He said the Messrs.
Bruner had also been engaged in the
case, and they desired a reasonable time
III which to prepare for the trial Counsel
claimed also that it would not be Just to
the accused to have to stand trial at a
time when the public mind is engroSsed
with matters incident to honicides, as is
the case III this city. Then, again, it was
desired 10 have certain depositions taken
III San Bernartlino County and New
York, and this would require consider
able time.
District Attorney Ryan, replying to
General Hart, said he thought that six
weeks time would be long enough for
any lawyer in which TO prepare 4 case for
trial. He did not think the court should
be influenced in a matter of this kind by
what was claimed To lie popular preju-
dice against accused persons, and he did
not believe such prejudice existed.
Then Jones, Elwood Bruner, Ryan and
Hart all took hand in the talking
match, in which old cases in which some
OF them had been engaged were gone
over again, and the discussion was be-
coming decidedly ''irrelevant and inn
material" when Judge Van Fleet cut it
short by fixing Thursday, May 18th, as
the date for PaImer's trial
The ease of George Smith, for killing
Patrick Brannigsn, was set for the 10th Of
May, and those Of turlong and Mckaig
