Smyrna times., 1893-11-15

IL Is very natural for persons who do
not devote their time to politics to
want to know the expressions of others
in regard to new or surprising events.
The excerpts below from the editorials
Of some of our contemporaries, will in
dicate what is thought of the late politi-
cal upheavel
Delawarean.
Elections in thirteen States were
held on Tuesday and the result in
every one of them was a triumph
of the people over plut0cracy; of the
farmers and labOring men over Wall
street, and over Clevelandism. The
rebuke and defeat OF Cleveland and mis-
purchased supporters was as over
wheming as it was deserved. He lost
every Democratic State in which an
election was held, except Virginia,
Maryland and Kentucky, and these
were only saved by great loss. And
every Republican State was carried by
greatly increased majOTities.
OF course mauy and different reasons
will be given for the defeat. The Re-
publicans will contend that it is vic
tory for their pet theory of protection.

free coinage was, and always has been,
a Democratic doctrine; that the Dem
ocratic conventions of thirty-five States
had declared for free coinage; that
Democratic Senators and Representa-
tives were almost unanimously in favor
of it.
Morning News.
The rebellion, which assumed serious
proportions in New York and New
Jersey, aroused the people of those
States,as the people of the entire North
were aroused in 1860. The rebellion
Of 1893, however, has been nipped In
the bud.
John Y. McKane, the desperate chief
of police Of Gravesend, n. Y, is now
pleading that he did not do those
things which scores of Trustworthy wit
nesses declared they saw him do.
The Sheriff of Kings county, the dis
trict attorney of the same county, and
the mayor of Brooklyn did not lift a
finger or utter one word in the direc-
ton OF stamping out the rebellion
against the laws of the State of New
York. They were silent endorsers of
the deeds Of violence at GraVesend and
their responsibility is equally as great
as that of McKane.
William j. Thompson, the Demo-
cratic race track king of Gloucester.
fought himself and party to victory in
Camden county, but the outrages in
the city of Camden on Tuesday were
condemned by the people of the rest OF
the State. The Republicans will have
control of the Legislature in New Jer.
sey, and the vicious Democratic legis
lation of the past will be repealed; and
Governor Vert will not dare to veto
the acts of repeal.
Flower, Sheehan, Hill, Murphy, Nc
Laughlin, Croker, Boody, Maynard
and McKane were the leaders of Tho
new rebellion in New York, the frs
gun of which was fired when the Dem
Ocratic rebels stole the State Senate
The last shot was fred at Gravesend.
Milford Chronicle.
A prominent Democrat of Milford, il
discussing the results of Tuesday,
elections declared that the apparent re
Yersal of public opinion is due more Il
the corrupt methods Of the part,
leaders, and ignorance and dishOnor o
its nominees, than to National legisla
ton or issues. In Delaware, he saws
the Democrats for years have nOmin
ated men unworthy of public conf
dence and have elected them only b.
subverting law. He thinks the peopl,
will shortly rise up in our own Stat,
and cast out the Democratic party ius
as they have done in New York. New
Jersey and elseWbere.
