THE election returns from Saline

Republicanism. Two years ago viii

strongest and weakest enemies OF the
Republican party can scare up a
bare majority OF 200 NotwithstsBd-
ing their rroteststions the Demo-
crsts voted the fusion ticket almost
to a man. The returns will show
just how far personal friendship and
honest action from conviction guided
in helping out certain cand idates,
bu: the fact remains that almost two
thirds of the opposition comes from
the Democratic party. 10 no serious
results come from II, We cannot say
that We shall hold any i'll will
against them, but they will have to
bear all the blame for III consequen-
ces. There are still without the fold

part Of assistant Democrats. This H.
their business, and they, too, will

TUE DIM UNCERTAINTY.

The JOURNAL goes to press too
early to give it's readers a full and
final account Of the election. The
"show down" often brings forth
some surprising changes in the ex-
pectations, aud suspicious of the
people at an election. At this hour,
however we do not hesitate t. say
that the outlook for Republican sue
cess il had. Au1 while we may not
like il very well there is nothing
left for us to do but to make the best
of it. We do not believe u majority
Of the people Of this country want
free trade, hut u they have indicated
by their votes that they want that
kind Of meu to hold the offices,
make aud execute the laws, there IL
nothing left for us to do but 10 abide
by il, fully convinced that il will
not be long until they are repentant
OF their folly, and that they will
change IL at the next opportunity.
II il is decided thst such men as
John Davis and Jerry Simpson are
to represent this state I'm congress,
we will have to stand that, too; but il
is bad the for dignity and honest pur-
pose OF the people Of Kansas. They
NAV continue to belle aud slander
our fair commonwealth. but We
know that not even a respectable
number of their own people uphold
them in IL. While il Is true that all
the visionary impracticabies, an-
srchists, communists, and enemies
OF religion are in the peoples party,
We are most happy To know and be-
lieve that the great majority Of that
party's members are honest, high
minded men, bent on doing their
best for the country. That they are
misled time has proven, and repent
ance will come also.
There is not man among our own
household OF faith that is any less a
Republican now than before; Ia
fact this election is likely to iniensi-
fy and solidify the Grand Old Party.
But there is one thing We trust not
one Republican in this broad land
will forget and that is the foundu-
tion principle upon which the Re-
publican party Is built il that the
majority must rule II IL the pars-
mount duty 10 hold up the will 0i
the people in every good work. We
are Americans first; par:isans next.
When the insidiOus enemies Of II
republican form OF government, at
tack from without, no member of the
Republican party must be guilty Of
lending aid or comfort to any but
the organized and recognized au
thOrity of the United States of
America. One OF the happisst aud
most healthful signs of the times
has been apparent all through this
when one man has taken
his political enemy by the hand aud
said: "If your man is elected he il
my president, and il my man il
elected he is your president" Happy
will be the day for America when
that sentiment Is universally TecOg-
nized.
