Take Courage and Keep On!

The adverse tidal wave that so regularly
strikes the party in power midway In the
term of It's administration has appeared in
Mr.. CLEvELAND's case one year ahead OF
time. The reaction was due In 1894. 1t has
come In 1893.
Its origin Is as unmistakable as Its dimen-
sions are formidable. Local questions and
Issues personal to candidates greatly af-
fected the result In Kings county. In Erie
county, in New York State as a whole. and
in New Jersey. But these local questions
neither produced nor measured the tremen-
dous upheaval OF Republican sentiment that
manifested itself on Tuesday throughout the
length and breadth OF the country where
ever there was chance to vote. They
were incidental in New York and New Jer-
sey. They did not operate elsewhere. 1t
would be childish to attribute the overturn
OF Democracy in Massachusetts and in
Iowa. the increased Republican vote in
States already Republican. and in Ohio the
appalling majority for MCKINLEY. the ALL
thor OF the MCKINLEY bill. over NEAL. the
author Of the tariff plank in the National
Democratic platform OF 1899. to any other
cause than the real cause. writ in the re-
turns In characters legible to all eyes.
The fate Of unconstitutional protection is
not yet settled. The battle against rob-
ber tariff Is not yet won. There is mighty
hard fighting ahead before the Democracy
can complete the work Of reform which it
has undertaken and redeem the irrevocable
pledge it has made.
The reverse on Tuesday will prove set
back to the speedy enactment OF const-
tutional tariff for revenue only: for its
effects will be felt In Congress. There are
time-servers and opportunlsts and cand-
dates for reelection next year. who will
weaken In their zeal for an immediate at
tack on protection all along the line. There
are Congressman who will advocate the
postponement OF the assault until a moro
favorable time. Voices. lately for accepting
no terms short OF unconditional surrender
will be heard proposing compromises and
uttering the shallow and selfish arguments
OF political expediency. 1t will require all
OF the firmness OF GROVER CLEVELAND to
hold the Democratic majorities in the House
and the Senate to the course which he has
marked out for them.
Is the duty Of the Democracy therefore
altered? Not in the slightest particular!
For a party which has taken a decided stand
in a matter of fundamental principle. it is
better to be submerged temporarily under potes
than TO be buried forever beneath uairersGl
AMI deserved contempt.

tattoh with which am identified. which rocked tho

liberties through the darkest hours OF radical nscen
