A DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.

The Charleston municipal election
yesterday resulted in a splendid vic
tory for the Democrats, and in bitter
disappointment for the Republicans.
The annexation Of Elk City, Re
publican stronghold, which was
showed through the Legislature to
make Charleston solidly Republican,
resulted, as such schemes usually do,
in the defeat of the schemers by the
people.
The Republicans who had every
thing before. managed to hold onto
only the Recorder and Sergeant, the
Democrats electing the head of the
ticket, on which the main fight was
made, the Mayor and the Treasurer,
and their share of the Council.
In view OF the annexation of Elk
CITY. which it was thought would
make Charleston surely Republican
the victory OF the Democrats is over
whelming. In these times, when
everything seemed TO be taking on a
Republican hue in State and city as
we'll rs in the nation. this news is par
ticularly gratifying and sweet to hear
1t whispers of a turning tide.
Congratulations, Democrats of the
Capital City,

THE REPrBLICAN WV

The New York Tribune's special cor
respondent on the scene Of the Della
ware Senatorial deadlock says:
Mr.. Addickss position in the can
vass is stated by him with business
like directnesS and precision;
He has contributed largely to the
campaign expenses in the southern
counties for several years. has reor-
gained the Republican party in those
counties. has supplied the money for
paving poll-t2Ves when nobody else
would do it, and by applying business
methods 20 politics carried Delaware
last November.
In other words, as the New York
World puts it. Gasman Addicks bought
the Legislature in order TO secure the
Senstorship and now demands the
goods. And no Republican newspaper
Of national repute has denounced the
pretensions of this avowed corruption
list or called upon the Legislature to
put him down.
Certainly not. That is not the cue
Of Republican organs in good standing
with the party whip crackers.

NEW TEMPERING PROCESSES.
The Carnegie reduction process of
Harveyized armor plates. which re-
suited in such a startling test at Indian
Head recently, proves to have been no
new revelation. Practically the same
operation. says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. was performed in 1891 by both the
Carnegies and the Bethlehem works
upon the first plates manufactured
according to the American carbOnizing
treatment. Nevertheless, the high de-
gree OF efficiency attained by the Pitts
burg armor makers is decidedly new,
and the process has become unprece-
dentedly effective.
A curious coincidence was the stimuli
taneous Krupp discovery OF kindred
process Of hardening steel TO a marvel
Gus degree of resistance; and now
comes similar news from Paris of a
nav French sun. made of hard-tem-
pered steel. which has triumphantly
withstood the shock Of 5000 rounds
fred with the heaviest charges of pow
Ger. That the unusual resistance Of
this new cannon is due to the novel
kind Of steel from which it has been
constructed may be questioned, since
the choke-bore is of a type which
lessons the violence of the discharge of
gas and saves the rifing.
IL would appear that three nations
had hit. al the same moment upon the
same wonderful discovery in the art Of
ordnance making.

A HUNT FOR HOUSES.
Present Occupation of the New
Congressman in Washington.
PUBLIC HEN WHO OWN THEIR HOMES

And Those Who Rent-Many Men Live
In HOteIs-ExOrbitant Rates For the
Furnished Houses.
WASHINGTON. D. c., Nov. 27.-Much of
Washington's population is vagrant.
Men come to the capital for short time
and return to their homes in the east or
west, or wherever they may live, to
give way to some one who has won the
favor Of their constituencies. The mem
Der of the house has seldom so strong a
claim On his district that he can feel
any security in the tenure Of his Office.
So it is that most of the members Of the
lower house Of congress belong to the
army of renters or live in hotels. Mr..
Holman of Indiana, who broke the rec
ord for congressional service just before
he retired to private life last March,
had spent so years Of his public career

ALREADY a compromise of some sort
on the money question is being talked of.
Knute Nelson, the new senator from Min
nesota, thinks it will be settled in that
way. There is no occasion for any COM
promise. The Republicans have it in
their power to settle the question right.
They don't need to compromise with any
body. There ia often no such travestv
on right and justice as a compromise
Every silver law passed since 1873 has
been compromiss measure, and they
have finally brought US to the single gold
standard. As a result the silver question
has been in politics twenty-five years.
and it will continue to be in politics if
anything less than its free and unlimited
coinage at the old ratio is submitted to-
If silver is not as good money as gold,
aud needs restrictions and limitations,
then we doA't want it.

ct the Ebbitt House from necessity, per-
haps, as much as choice.
Senator Davis of Minnesota has q
very fine house, which he bought after
he had been in Washington some time.
His wife entertains great deal Sena
tor Allison has his own home, a fine old
brick house of three stories on Vermont
avenue, near Thomas circle. He occu-
pies it alone. Directly behind it is the
red brick house which Senator Morrill,,
the father of the senate, - has occupied
for many years.
More than one-half Of the members Of
the senate live in rented houses or in
hotels As to the members of the house,
they are usually inhabitants of boarding
houses or hotels Of great or small pre-
tensions. Most of the southerners will
be found at the Metropolitan (once
Brown s hotel) or the National Speak
er Crisp lives at the Metropolitan, and
Senator Ransom, now minister to Mex
leo, was 3 familiar figure there for
many years. Still a fair proportion Of
the representatives live in rented houses,
and at this season the Washington house
holder is getting his house in readiness
for the congressional renter. There are
many people in Washington who seldom
If ever occupy their own houses in win
ter. They spend the winters abroad or in
New York, or in some cheap boarding
house perhaps. They rent their houses
furnished to congressman during tho
winter for enough to pay their own win
ter expenses and the maintenance of the
house during the summer.
A CaTun1a IF tho rants obar0ad in
Washington was the rate asked by the
proprietor of an apartment house for
very small suit of diminutive rooms.
For the fashionable season-six months
these rooms would be 5000; for the en-
tire year they would be $70O. Some
times the congressional renter makes
bargain for the use Of a house for the
session Of congress for lump sum.
This is a lottery, for congress in the
long session may remain ill Washington
five months or nine. Usually the con-
gresham rents by the month for fixed
period. and the rate he pays varies from
$3.50 to $500 a month. With the high
rents, the exaggerated prices charged
for food in this city and the constant
demands made on official people for en-
tertaining So. a year does not go
very far toward paying congressman s
expenses at the capital.

The proposition of Topeka to make
the @. A. r. reunion q side show for some
kind Of a carnival will not meet with
much favor among the old boys. The
Grand Army reunion is a whole weeks
entertainment of itself. - Hutchinson
News.
It ia perfectly absurd to say the re-
union is to be anything like side show.
The displays to be gotten ur in Topeka
are on purpose to entertain the old sol
diers; that is exactly what Topeka is
about Nothing any more unjust than
what the News says could be thought of.
The News should remember that Topeka
has always doomed the Hutchinson Musi-
cal Festival, that hundreds of Topeka
people go to it and will continue to GO.
The STATE JOURNAL has done and
will do all in its power TO make the Hutch
inson festival the biggest musical event in
he state as it we'll deserves to be. The
News should be fair and not strive to
injure Topekas festivities.

SHOULD NOT .sWERVE.

The grudos that certain dyed-in the
wool Republican editor in Kansas has
against the STATE JOURNAL is that when
a Republican Office holder goes on a de-
bauch the JOURNAL tells all about it just
the same as when Populist Office holder
does. The STATE JOURNAL is perhaps
a queer kind of paper. It actually be-
lieves that an Office holder ought to So
conduct himself as to command the re-
spect OF the people. 1t doesn't matter
whether the Office holder is Republi-
can, Populist, Democrat. Prohibitionist or
what he is, if he is disgracing his Of
fee the people ought to know it.
Any paper that conceals misdoings of
the officials of its own party. while it
blazons and gloats over those of its op-
ponents is not only dishonest, but sneak
ing.
The newspaper should occupy the po-
sition of judge, not of advocate. A
judge on the bench who would be inhu-
enced by money or ether considerations
IN his opinions and decisions isn't fit to
be judge, and a newspaper that doesn't
seek to be fair and i'm partial isn't fit to
exist

all spent for plans SO they get the kind

Locomotive works are building. The ex-

merely as an experiment. We have
none ordered from any of the railroads
