that. Again he says IF Mr.. Story mas
purchased anything from that chicago
firm. Mr.. Story has NOT purchased any
thing from said firm, but the purchase
was made by majority OF the school

timid people who have watched the
canker-worm Of jealousy and hatred

these factions happened TO come to-

quenched with blood, came to head
last week, when the county officials sent
formal challenge to the mayor to
gather his minions about him and meet
the aforesaid county officers an the base
ball diamond adjoining the school
building, and there forever settle their
differences ia matched game OF base
ball. The challenge vas worded IN rath-
er unpoiished language, and referred to
city officials chewing the rag and
other uncomplimentary things. The
object of this was undoubtedly to so en-.
rage the challenged party that they could
find no excuse for not accepting. Bu
tins was needless as the city guardians
we're as eager for the fray as their oppon

One thing that has been demonstrated
ago is the utter futility of the gerryman-
der to perpetuate the control.of party.
The iniquity of the gerrymander has not
been confined to Democrats or Republic
cans. Both parties have been guilty of
it to some degree, but after the overturn
of 1890 1t was carried by the Democrats
to an extent before unknown. In half
dozen States Exceptionally thought that
they had SO fixed the congressional dis
tricts thatEit would be practically.impos-
sible for the Republicans to carry more
than small minority Of them. In
some of the States, notably in New York
and Wisconsin, the legislative districts
were also gerrymandered SO as to ensure,
they supposed, Democratic Legislatures
for many years to come. In some of the
States the courts destroyed their work
by deciding that it was in violation of
law. In others their labors survived the
courts only to be completely wrecked by
the people. Indiana was one OF the most
thoroughly gerrymandered States so far
as, Congressional districts were concerned;
but the utter futilty of the device as a
means of retaining control is shown by
the fact that every one OF the districts was
carried this year by the Republicans. In,
Michigan the courts interfered and killed
some of the most gIaring injustice of
the redistricting, and now the people
have killed the rest by electing solid
Repu blican delegation to Congress and
leaving but single Democratic candi-
date for the legislature undefeated.
David Bennett Hill supposed he had
fixed New York senatorial and bly,
districts three years ago, SO that it
would be impossi BILE for the Repu blicans
to carry majority of them for many
years to come. But in the very next
year they captured majority of both
branches and.this year they have cap
tured the State Offices and buried the
moving spirit OF the gerrymander be.
meath majority of:15O, 900, Illinois. Wis
cousin and several other States present
similar object lessons of the utter fulfil
ity of the gerrymander to retain control
in the hands of one party even for brief
period. 1t is safe to say that until the
facts of the recent election are forgotten
there will be no more attempts on the
part of either party to retain their grip
By means of gerrymanders. This, is "a
distinct gain to honest politics, for the
gerrymander was dishonest expedient,
even when it was confined within the
limits of legality

The change Of name of the New Eng
1and.Tariff Reform League to New Eng
land Free Trade League while approved
BY the great majority of the mem Oers'
was distasteful to minority, among
them Mr.. Dana Estes, who writes 70 tue
Roston Herald a protest against IL.
Mr.. Estes's objection seems 70
he that the new name may be construed
as indicating that the League is for free
trade right away. This objection does
not amount to much 8 The members OF
the League are for Tree trade as soon as
they can get it, and the name they nave
chosen is the proper one. The only
sound objection that can be made to the
change is the hardness of making it. 1t
ought to have been made years ago. In
deed the society ought to have been
chrlstened with that name.

It looks as if the Tennessee democrats

Democrats were overthrown because
their tariff reform did not go far enough,
that Republican gains in West Virginia
were larger proportionately than in al
most any other state in the Union. In
most states the Democlatic overthrow
was brought about chiefly by the ne
elect sof Democrats to vote, and.the Re
publican vote increased very little. But
in West Virginia, while the Democratic
vote fell off 1853, the Republican vote
increased S,s67, or Republican gain al
most equal to the Democratic loss. But
West Virginia is the state of William l..
Wilson, who was anxious for good deal
more tariff reform than Congress gave,
and who criticised the tariff measure
that passed because it did not go far
enough. If the voters had intended to
rehuke the Dem ocrats because they did
not 90 far enough, they would hardly
have been guilty of the absurdity .of
picking out Mr.. Wilson for special con-
domination.
