The people by their votes have demand
ed moderate tariff sufficient for the de-
mands of the government and sufficient to
protect deserving industries-they have
demanded free raw material, free wool,
free lumber, free salt, free coal They have
demanded that the government shall be
run in the interests of the people and not
simply to benefit such men as Carnegie,
Frick, Disston, Dolan and other million
aires. They have demanded protection
against the blocks of five Dudley crowd

The people have spoken in thunder tones
and the verdict is the most emphatic that
the American people have registered since
be collapse Of the Wing party forty years
ago, and its full force is not yet fully
ascertained.
OF the Eastern states, New York, Con-
necticut and New Jersey, are in the peoples
column, while in the West, Indiana, Hin
ois, Wisconsin, one-half the vote of Michi-
gan, California and probably Ohio, are in
the Democratic column alongside the solid
South. 1t is not sectional, but a National
victory that the Democracy have won, and
that by an overwhelming majority in the
electoral college, aud by landslide Of the
popular vote
Turning from the result in the Nation,
let us view the result in Gloucester county.
In the year 1883 Harrison carried the coun-
ty by S78 majority, and on Tuesday his
majority is $50, greater tribute to the
energy and fidelity Of the Democracy is not
presented in any county in our State.
Onr only regret in this campaign is the
defeat of our county candidates Jones, Da-
yidson. Diverty and Porch-they held high
the standard of our party in every town
ship-were true to the National aud State
candidates while they are not sue
cessful yet nave the satisfaction OF having
done their whole duty. All honor, we re-
peat, to our fallen leaders.

LONDON, Nov. 10.-A despatch from
Blenheim Palace, the seat Of the Duke
of Marlborough, at Woodstock, Oxford
shire, announces that the Duke was
found dead in bed yesterday morning.
The dukes valet entered his bedroom as
usual with the dukes early chocolate.
The duke apparently was sleeping peace
fully and the Wallet withdrew without
trying to rouse him. Shortly before 10
o'clock, upon returning to the room he
saw that the duke had not moved. He
Laid his hand on the dukes forehead and
found it to be stone cold. DR.. Candwell,
local physician, arrived before IL.
After a superficial examination Of the
body, he said that the rigidity of the
body and the appearance of the face in
dicated that the duke had been dead for
six or seven hours.

THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON

Heard from Illinois.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The president
gave up the election when he heard from
Illinois, renarking: s.If Illinois has gone
Democratic, that settles it, /" and he re-
quested that no further returns be sent
to him. The president rose at his usual
hour yesterday, glanced over some of the
latest returns which had been prepared
for him. and then calmly devoted him
self to executive business, saving moth
ing.
After dispOsing of number Of pardon
cases the president received an official
call from Secretary John w. Foster on
matters relating to the international
monetary conference. The instructions
4 to the American delegates are now in
course of preparation, and viii be ready
/ for delivery to the delegates in this city
4 today. Throughout the day the presi-
4 dent gave no indications whatever of
! Disappointment or chagrin at the result Of
( the election. He was undoubtedly the
calmest person in the house, and OBJ
served his customary routine as though
nothing unusual had occurred. AS one
of his friends expressed it: IF he is de-
feated he will lay down the cares of off
cial life without the least personal regret
and seek the more congenial seclusion of
4 private life with undisguised satisfac-
ton"
/ Attorney General Miller and Secretary
j. w. Foster, Of the state department,
are the only two members of the cabi-
net in the city.
I Attorney General Miller was some
what prepared for defeat by the forecast
Of doubt which he brought back with
him from his hasty visit to Indiana, but
he was far from anticipating SO complete
a ''slump." Secretary of State Foster is
not an active politician. He was paired
with Colonel Dick Bright Of Indiana.
Ex-Secretary Blaine declines to be in
terviewed on the result and has had the
telephone removed from his residence in
Lafayette square, so as to avoid the an
noyanee of perpetual calls. The feeling
OF depression and unrest which pervades
all the departments cannot be exag-
\ rerated.
