The Stay-at-Homes Did It.

New York Dispatch: Complete returns have been received from of ficial sources in all the counties in New York on the election of a court of appeals judge. Bartlett received 570,926 votes and Maynard AT, ,S3l. Bartlett 'smajority is 93,095. These figures bear out the statement made that the Democratic state ticket was defeated bv the failure of democrats to vote. In 1892 the total vote cast for Cleveland and Harrison was 1 l,266,2ls Cleveland boiled 654, S6S and Harrison 605,350. Cleveland s percentage was 635 and Harrlson's s 46a of the total vote On Tuesday the total for Bartlett and Maynard was 1, l,4S,757. Bartlett received, as stated, 570,S26, and Maynard ATT, ,S31 Bartletts percentage was 54.43A and Maynard's 45.568 Bartlett ran on ly 2S,424 votes behind Harrison while Maynard ran l77,037 behind the vote cast for Cleveland last fall. The shrinkage in the democratic vote is about evenly divided, as it appears from the figures between the upper counties and the district below Harlem river. The same pro- portion of percentage is maintained in the vote for the candidates on the democratic and republican state tickets.

0H.N ear JuhiIation.

Memphis Commercial. "The good Lord is often kind to the outs in these off-year elections Even when Providence has it in for man he mingles just enough of comfort in his cup of bitterness to protect him from utter despair and self-destrnct- ion. We can remember when the cheerful gleam of the oif.year land- slide was all that was youchsafed to the Democratic party. From off-year to otf-year it went hungry But up- on these off-yeaf crumbs and husks it managed to live and hope for the good time coming. Looking back to those pathetic days we may smile as we observe the frantic jubilation of the Republicans over the recent elections. We remember how Penn sylvania, Ohio and Maine used to come to see us and how we tossed our hats in the air and went wild with joy: and we remember the feel ings of resentment and indignation that arose within us when they all put back home as soon as the presi- dential year came round, But bye and bye the day of jubilee came and the Democratic party came back to power and now the oA-year con solation is for Republicans. For some reason or other the good Lord wants to keep the Republican party just live enough to let the Democrat ic party have fun with it. And we are glad of it. There is no fun in mutilating corpse
The Russellville Democrat., 1893-11-16

TIE elections just past went wrong for us. All sorts of reasons have been given for this result. Some sensible and some not. To us the reason is apparent The party was rent in it's policy of legislation. The very question that party policy was divided on was under the heat of discussion during the campaign, There must be party unanimity at headquarters before success can be expected along the lines. Demo crats squared against democrats in the ring at the capital was the ele
 ment that made republican victory possible. There were other causes such as Maynard in New York, a man against whom the people revolt ed. A piece of foolishness that par ties will be guilty of sometimes is whether or no to nominate a man anyhow, and then the people gener- ally manage to give an object lesson. Over in New Jersey it was some leg islation about horse racing that the party had been instrumental in pass ing that was obnoxious to the people, aud they took this way to let their ideas be known. The party in Hi
 nois also seems to have driited into the hands of an unfortunate leader
The Russellville Democrat., 1893-11-16

TIE democratic party is now and always has been in partnership with the people. Her work before the war was to steer the vessel, but since the war it has been to wrest the arm that would wreck it. Be fore the war she was the trusted agent to put the principles of Jeffer- son and Jackson into operation. Since the war she has been the trusted agent to rescue these princi- pies from the peril of destruction. The people never have and never will suffer from hard conditions at the hands of the democratic party. The periods of our greatest prosper ity and happiness were when demo cratic faith was in control. The party has fought so long under the simple tenets of it's faith, that it is hardened in it's cast against monop- olists and against profitable politics. She is essentially plebian in her instincts and countrified in her doctrines. She eats and sleeps on the com mon heath, and delights to fight the battles of fthe common people. This is her pedigree proud or not, it is still hers and this is her history. Her mission to the people in the future is the prophecy of their good.

James Curry was born in West Tennessee Nov 20 1875, died Oct. 1895, of typhoid fever. He was converted in 1892 and joined the Nj. E. church few days later. Living true to his faith. honoring and loving the cause of an all high Deity. he never let the stan that held his banner unfurled to a Christian world swoon away and retreat beneath the scofnful hissing of the fiery demons of Manmon. He lived as 1T the SCOTS of the foolish were praise to the virfu ous. In morality he ascendcd the scale and placed upon the summit open to an outward strictest and deserve the appreciation of the mighty. In business he fulfilled that part Of the sacred commands which says Be ye not sloth- fui in business. but feryent in spirit He was always serving the Lord. But death leaves It's shining light Of heaven will approach even in midday. The glory of an earthly prize IS like the pencils Of light from the emeralds ont of the gates Of heasen. The time of ones departure IS said to be sweeter than his advent. If so, the tears of his parents. which only wet the hand kerchief, are showers of ethereal rain forming 1 blessing upon the golden streets of heaven. His friends were many.

Miss Fannie Scott of Van Buren, late lady manager of the Arkansas exhibit at the Worlds Fair. has been appointed to canvass this State in behalf of the ex-Confederates' Association of Chicago for funds te assist in erecting a monument in Jackson Park. The selection oi Miss Scott for this work is most fortunate and appropriate as she is not only capable and energetic, but exceedingly popular on account oi her untiring labors during the pre- liminary struggle for State represen- tation at the Exposition. as well as for her unfaltering devotion to the States interests at Chicago.
