THE END OF THE SOLID SOUTH.

The solid south has dropped
out of politics. Tuesday'srepub-
lican victories in Kentucky and
Maryland are decisive on this
point. The republican majorities
in Missouri, Maryland and West
Virginia last year, and the practi-
c.ally tie vote between the parties
in Kentucky at that time, was as
cribed to democratic apathy. But
the republican majorities just
rolled up in Kentucky and Mary
land can not and will not be at
tributed to any such condition.
The size Of the vote yesterday in
both these states is fatal to any
presumption of this sort. All the
democrats went to the polls, but
thousands of them voted the re-
republican ticket, and will con-
tinue to vote it SO long as the re-

publican party is true to its

publican party is true to its
ideals.
1t will be alleged, of course, by
the democrats that their reverse
in Kentucky and Marland was
due to factional feuds in their
party, and in some degree this
explanation is valid. The split
on silver in the former state and
the fight against German in the
latter turned many votes over to
the republi a rs. But TIL ese
causes we're merely contributory.
They simply assisted in turning
the scale. The republican ma
jority in neither state would have
been as large without them, but
there would have been majority
of some size or other. There
was no split in Kentucky on the
silver question or anything else
in 1894, nor was German or Cor
manism an issue in the Maryland
canvass. Tuesdays break in the
democratic line in the south shows
that the causes are deeper than is
popularity supposed, and have been
longer in operation.
That is to say, geographical
parties and geographical politics
have reached their end. It will
be no longer possible to determine
a states partisan complexion by
it's latitude. Mason and Dixon's
line has been abolished. States
on both sides of it will hereafter
divide freely on the question Of
the time, irrespective altogether
of their attitude toward dead and
gone issues. The country has
e1nancipated itself from its bond
age to the ante-bellum era. Texas
annexation, the Wilnot proviso,
the Kansas-Nebraska law and
secession have at last lost their
power to sway the people in
either south or north. A great
era in the nations political his
tory has been closed.---St. Louis

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.


WASHINGTON. Nov. 8, 1895.
Washington and the country appear
to be in for an unusually big dose of
politics, considering that this is an off
year. The one-sided way in which the
important state elections went are re-
sponsible for the political deluge ap-
pearing ahead OF time. The republi-
cans are intoxicated with Joy at their
success, which they acknowledge was
much greater than they expected, and
the democrats are as badly intoxicated
with disgust. With the members OF
those parties representing those two
periods of 'jag" it may be imagined
that much of the talk is'maudlin. The
republicans all assume that the presi-
Dental election is already settled, and
therein lies their danger. That as
sumption will make the fight over the
republican nomination all the more
bitter, and bitter fights over non1ina-

is fourth in point of population,

Lawrence is the only county with
a greater increase, except Rob

Colonel John M. King, the
state agent for South Dakota,
will file with the commissioner of
the general land Office tomorrow
two claims on behalf of the state
for amounts due the state from
the sales of public lands. Ihe
first claim will be for 5 per cent
of the proceeds of the sales OF
lands in the opened Sioux S1sse-
ton and Wahpeton and Yankton
Sioux reservations, under the
provisions of section 13 of the
enabling act. The second claim
is for S per cent of the estimated
value at $1.25 per acre OF the land
embraced in the permanent reser-
vations in the state. 1t IS est1-
mated that there are about TO-
100000 acres involved IN the first
claim and II, 900, 900 in the second.
The amount due the state is more
than a million dollars. The IN
terest derived from this fund, if
allowed, is to be devoted to the
maintenance of the com m n
schools.

him is no good to the party, and
further, is not entitled to any OF
the honors which belong to sue

THE ACouITTAL OF THE ADVENT
lists.

THE ACQUITTAL OF THE ADVENT
ISTS.
Chicago Inter-Ocean: Every
friend of civil and religious liber-
ty will rejoice in the finding of the
Tennessee jury in favor of the
Adventists who were arrested on
charge of Sabbath breaking.
The Adventists, or Seventh-day
Baptists, believe that the fourth
of the ten commandments either
must be obeyed according to its
plain declaration or not obeyed
at all. The commandment reads:
HRemember the Sabbath to keep
it holy," etc. The Adventists
obey the commandment with a
fidelity equal to that of the an
cient Jews. On the seventh day
they "do no manner of work. :"
But, having observed 'the sew
enth day." which is the only day
concerning the observance Of
which there is any Biblical COM
uand, they properly go to work
on the first day, concerning which
there neither is direct nor indirect
commandment upon any authori-
| ty of "thus saith the Lord" For
disregard of the first day."
which properly is called Sunday,
and improperly by some is desig-
mated s'the Sabbath" these God.
fearing men we're arrested and
imprisoned.
1t is part of the creed of the
Adventists, as of the Dunkards,
the Quakers, the Mennonites, and
some other singularly pure-lived
1sects, mot to resist evil by eyil. )"
Some of them carry this maxim
so far as to endure arrest and con-
6sca ton of goods rather than to
employ lawyers to defend them.
However, in this Tennessee case,
a congressman and a former judge
volunteered appearance as "amici
curiae," and, in telling speeches,
argued for dismissal of the cases.
The trial judge instructed the
jury to acquit, and an acquittal
followed.
1t is pleasant to put 1t on rec
ord that the suits against the Ad-
ventists were not instigated by
any of the churches that call Sun
day "the Sabbath" No sign of
religious hatred was manifest in
the prosecution. The mean mo-
tive was 1ucre. Constables and
witnesses who were in quest of
fees we're the instigators of the
prosecution. These scurvy gen
try were soundly scored by the
presiding judge.
Sunday laws are necessities of
civilization. The Mosaic Sab
bath no longer is recognized by a
majority of people, and by only a
few Christian people. But the
benefcent intent of the law sur
wives; it is now, and always will
be, as needfu1 as in the time of
Moses, that one day in seven shall
be set apart for rest. Originally
the seventh was so ordained; dur
ing the last 700 years secular and
ecclesiastic custom has set apart
the first. But whether the first
or the seventh day be observed,
the sole intent of the fourth COM
mandment is accomplished when
one day out of seven is devoted to
rest. "On it thou rest" is the
spirit of the pious commandment.

4 Michigan doctor had a remarkable
experience in the treatment OF d%iphther-
ia 10y anti toxin. He had twenty five
cases under his care, the disease being OF
a peculiarly malignant type. Being I'M
able to procure antl.toxln at once, he
was obliged to treat the first eight cases
without it. Four of these patients died.
He afterwards received a supply OF the
remedy and treated tho remaining seven.
teen with it, every q being cured.
This is probably an unusual case. The
advocates of the anti. toxin treatment do
not claim that it is infallible: But
wherever it has been tried it's success
has been sufficiently marked to leave no
doubt OF its efficacy. It's discovery has
already proved to be an incalcuable
boon.
