The Penn's Grove record., 1894-11-16
The Two Landslides,

The Democratic defeat in the coun-
try on Tuesday is not unprecedented.
1t is closely paralleled by the great land
slide against the Republicans in the
second year of President Harrison's
term.
In the fifty.flrst Congress the Repub-
licans had a working majority in the
House. In the elections of 1890 this
was converted into a Democratic ma
jority of about one hundred and fifty.
AS far as the new tariff was Involved
in the elections the condemnation Of
the Mckinley law was far more en-
phatic than is the disapproval of the
Democratic measure.
The reversal of the State elections
was quite as general in 1890 If not SC
pronounced as it has been this year.
Pennsylvania, the Iock.ribbed Republi.
can State which gave Harrison 10000
majority in 1888, elected a Democratic
Governor by 16, 200 in 1890. Illinois,
which gave Harrison a majority of 81
600 elected a Democratic Treasurer by
10000 in 1890. Massachusetts, which
had been Republican with only two ex.
ceptions for thirty years aud which
gave Harrison a majority of $4,000
elected "a Democratic Governor two
years later by over 5000 majority.
Michigan, Nebraska, Oregon and Wis
consin, all Republican States, went
with the avalanche for the Democrats
in the middle of Harrison's term.
If Wilson, the champion of Demo-
cratic tariff reform In the House, is de-
feated this year, was not Mckinley
beaten in 1890?
A political reverse in the middle OF
the administrative term has been the
rule in our history. No President
since the end Of the war and recon
struction period has carried party ma.
jority in Congress through his term.
There is discipline in the Democratic
defeat, but it is neither unprecedented
nor final. The Republicans have rope
enough to hang themselves, and their
record Indicates that they will do 1t be-
fore 1S96.-N. Y. World.
