Aftermath.

The late Republican landslide,
which at one time threatened to dis
figure the face of the earth, has not
wrought such mighty ruin, after all.
The Democratic party is not dead
and buried, and the Republican par
ty is not in state of homogeneity
and heavenly harmony. The only
thing that seems to have suffered
loss of all things is the Mckinley
bill, and it seems to be agreed on all
hands, that, for it, there is no hope
of resurrection. The trouble with
the late, or rather the present, Dem
ocratic Congress is that it has be-
haved too much like a Republican
Congress, and it will be found that
the lately elected Republican Con
gress, when it gets together, will be-
have very much like a Democratic
Congress. The Republican party
has lately slid away with a great deal
more of the national vote than it can
possibly hold, and, when this begins
to slide off again, it will, like any
landslide, carry with it a great deal
more than its original contents. The
number of Democrats who voted Re.
publican this year for sullen spite,
and who never mean to do the like
again, is greater than the over-san-
guine Republicans realize. 1t is GER
tain that there cannot be another
Republican landslide at the next
election, but it is by no means Ger
tain that there will not be, nay, it is
almost certain that there will be a
landslide of some kind, not Repub-
lican.
AS long as the Republican party
is led by such men as Quay and
Platt and Elkins, it will be watched
with suspicion by the independent
voter, and it does not need to make
any very big break to insure its over
