Governmental Powers of Democracy.
Senator Higgins has given another in
terview. This time Il Is on Tuesday
election. He makes the following deduc
tions:
"The result Of the election Of Tuesday
seems TO make manifest the fact that in
the opinion of the people the Democratic
party Is incapable Of conducting the
affairs Of the government. The threat
o its policies In respect to finance and
the tariff has caused the overthrow Of
our Industries and their prosperity.
"To it's amszement the country found
that even President Cleveland, with all
the powers Of his great Office, did not
represent the Democratic majority In the
Senate on the financial question to settle
which, a special session of Congress was
called Only by an unexsmpled use Of
patronage was be able to get the support
of even one-half Of the Democratic mem
bers of the Senate.
"The sweeping character of this victory
in so many states indicates that the
threat Of tariff reform which has para
lyzed all business and depre ssed wages,
has worked profound change in the
opinion of all communities
