owner of that organ Of distress has

creditable to tho party and satisfac

then, to say that the leading light of

nor is it necessary, either, to explain
why it is that the paper continues to
find fault with all the appointments
made, and Of the criticisms it offers Of

CRIMINAL ECONOMY.

The telegraph OF the past few days
has brought the news Of numerous ia
tai accidents ol the railroads. These
have been confined to the great sys-
TENS of the East where trains are run
on fast time and traffic is great The
most disastrous was that on the Grand
Trunk, Friday, where some thirty hu-
man lives were offered as sacrifice to
"A corporation 5 greed. A special train,
loaded with human freight crashes
into another train similarly loaded
and death results. OF course it is re-
ported that the violation Of train or
der caused the wreck, which has be
come the stereotyped explanation in
such cases. The real cause is the cut
ting down of the working forces to a
point below what is required To per-
form the service, and human endur.

imposed.

IN Iowa the Republican candidate
for governor, Frank Jackson, has been
critlcising the pension policy Of the
CleYeland administration. lnvestiga-
lion shows that jackson was debarred
as a pension claim agent by a Repub-
lican administration for crooked work
in dealing with applicants for pen
sions. There is little or no doubt of
jackson being defeated by Gov. Boies.
Moreover he realizes that he cannot
return to his old business of a claim
agent, because when his course in that
line was so dishonest that even Re-
publican administration turned upon
him, his prospects are much more
gloomy under the still higher stand

The Grand Party Of Progress Makes a
Clean Sweep, Carrying Everything
With It-A Time for Great
Rejoicing.

The news is decidedly Democratic
The municipal election at Perry IS
over and the whole Democratic ticket
is elected by majority Of 100 votes.
Fifteen hundred votes were cast and
but very little scratching was done.
Contrary to general expectation, the
election, although not quiet, vas
smooth. Excitement at times was in.
tense, but no violent encounters took
place and, happily, no serious assaults
or murders are u be chrouicled.
The success of the whole Democratic
ticket was assured from the time
the polls opened, and the Democrats
enjoyed clean walk-away.
The day opened cool and balmy and
as Old Sol popped up his head from
behind the eastern horizon knots of
men gathered here and there to discuss
the political aspect of the day.
From the outset it was apparent
that the Republican forces were in a
badly demoralizcd condition, owing to
to mismanagement and the general
weakness of the ticket presented.
The independent ticket, headed by
the immaculate Green Is. Rsum, jr.,
was also badly split up the back from
the fact that n number of Raum's
staunchest supporters had forsaken
their idol The evening before
RaHm, however, never gave up hope
during tho morning hours, but worked
with vim born of desperation. AS
the shadows Of evening came on, how
ever, he sighted the inevitable soup
bowl and gracefully fell to the road
side.
From start to finish the Democrats
were jubilant. The clean record of
the men on the ticket did the work
Every cry that assembled was laden
With the name "BrSgan. Slogan and
Brogan were the watch words
During the day business was prac.
tically suspended and everything gave
way to Perry's initial election day.
The amount Of electioneering done
was phenomenal Every prominent
man in the place possessed a button
hole, and every hoe held finger. AL
though the contest was hot and spir-
tied, everybody was good natured
and angry words were few and far be-
tween.
When the returns were all in and
the results announced a grand up
heaval in the shape Of rejoicing fol-
lowed
Republicans and Democrats alike
shouted, and Candidates Raum and
Mentz were at the head of the process
sion.
The result of the election gives gem
eral satisfaction to the people of
Perry The ticket elected is
pure and clean cut and the
officials elect will discharge their
duties in sound and honest
manner. Following is the successful
ticket.
