. WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-Nearly all Of
the leading newspapers In speoulating as
to the political complexion OF the United
States Senate after March next place
Senator Irby and Senator-to- be Tillman
in the Populist column. The Baltimore
Sun to-day, in taking stock Of the politi-
cal wreck, says:
'sThe Democrats also lose South Caro-
lima which will send Tillman, Populist,
to the Senate"
The same paper then goes on to say
1.-THE loss of Kansas, New Jersey and
South Carolina reduces the present
Democratic total in the Senate from a to
fl. The reports from West Virginia,
Tennessee and Kentucky do not yet
indicate with certainty that the Legisla-
lures will be Democratic, and if there
should be changes in any one Of them
the Democratic total in the Senate would
be still further reduced. The present
Republican strength in the Senate of 3S
promises to be increased by Senators
from New Jersev, Kansas, Montana,
Washington and Wyoming, the last three
being vacancies in which there is sill
some doubt as to the returns. The Re-
publicans are likely to lose Nebraska.
This makes gain of five and loss of
one, or q net gain of four, raising the Re.
publican total to AZ. The Populist now
have three Senator's. The returns indi-
cate a gain for them in South Carolina
and Nebraska, making their total five
Senators. Jones and Stewart, of Nevada,
have Of late affiliated with the Populists
so that the Populist strength may be
increased and the Republican decreased
by two"
This statement does not agree with
Senator Irby's telegram to Senator
Faulkner announcing that South Caro-
lima will send solid Democratic delega-
ton to the next Congress. It is in order
for Messrs. Irby and Tillran to declare
themselves.-Spec,at to Neacs and Cou-

Democracy can pass through numerous
s'"rms like that of the 9Th inst. and not
be hurt. A few men don't like it, hut
tho great heart of Democracy beats just
the same. In national sense the Re-
publicans have gained nothing by their
victory. They have secured no office,
they have not made themselves any
stronger, but have probably weakened
themselves, for the people will expect
some relief and they can give none. If
the tidal wave could have been delayed
two years it would have proved great
help to the Republicans, but as it is the
victory is barren. The Republican party
has greater responsibilities on its shoul-
ders, has the control Of one branch of
Congress confded to it, but it is unable
to do anything for the people or for itself:
It is merely the beneficiary of an accu-
mutation of troubles which it was the
establishment in producing, and which
yet bore against party which succeeded
1t In responsibility at the moment when
the burden fell upon the nation. 1t has
conducted a,cowardly and impotent cam
paign. Unable to defend their record and
barren of healing ideas, its orators have
moved about, monotonously repeating
the falsehood that the Democratic party
had caused the financial troubles. And
in this falsehood they have been aided by
so.called Democrats in various sections
of the country demanding unconditional
free coinage Of silver and abusing the
Democratic party for not granting it..
lhe Republicans may crow as long and
as loud as they please. 1t can do no harm.
It is beyond their power to enact force
bill, to rehabilitase the Mckinley law, or
to distribute The revenues in subsidies.
Grover Cleveland is still at the helm and
will be there. during the entire life of the
next Congress, and in him is vested the
power. to STAGE an emphatic ard effective
veto on 1all Epernicious legislation. The
Democracy Will learn wisdom by Its
defeat and will ba all the stronger for the
great fight Of 1895.

A Slick Trick.

The Greenville News published the fol-
lowing story of q scheme used by liquor
desler to get ahead of the dispensary law
and the constables:
yesterday they went over to West
Greenville and searched J. E. Payne's
old place, now kept by William Godfrey.
They found "signs" plenty but no IL
quor. One of the constables had soiled
his hands and went to the water faucet
behind the bar to wash them. Constable
Workman turned the cock and the other
constable washed his hands and then
suddenly discovered, to his amazement,
that he was washing them in pure corn
whiskey running copiously from the
faucet. After long investigation it was
found that there was keg of liquor on
top of the house. A pipe from it passed
through the roof, down the walls. under
the floor and into the end of tho water
pipe, where it was shut off with separ-
ate cock. Turning one handle would
bring pure water, while the other would
evoke corn juice both from the Same fau-
Get.
"The liquor and apparatus were confis-
Gated and Godfrey was arrested. He gave
ball."
