joyment of protected monopoly gather

temporary slap at the Democratic
effort in New York and Pennsylvania
for free and open competition. Under

against the classes.

VIM. L. Strong, Independent Re-
publican, is elected Mayor of New
York City by 10000.
The New Jersey Legislature will

ton of a United States Senator of
that political faith.
Owing to the split of the Republi-
can party the Populists have elected

The Democratic voters who did not
pay their taxes in time, or did not
vote straight ticket, or who did not
vote at all, are the men who are res
ponsible for the results in this county

under any Of these heads knows just
who is hit.
