MARKET REPORT.
Republicans Triumphant.

The republican tide is still at the
flood. All the republican states and
all the doubtful states were carried
by the republicans in the elections
Tuesday Of last week, the former by
immense maiorities, and the latter
by majorities which even the most
sanguine republicans did not expect.
Not only have Massachusetts, Penn
sylvania, Ohio, and Iowa been swept
by the republicans, but New York,
New Jersey, Maryland and Kentucky
have been carried by them.
This, of course, foreshadows a
republican victory in 1896. The
party which reveals any such strength
as this twelve months before a
presidential election is sure 10 sweep
the country in that canvass. There
has never been an exception 10 this
rule. The republican current may
be retarded somewhat between now
and November, 1896, but 1t cannot
be stayed. The laws OF political
dynamics permit this TO he predicted
with the utmost confidence. In some
of the states carried IN the election
last week, the republican majority
may not be quite as great next year,
but in all of them there will be
majority, and this means republican
preponderance in the electoral col
lege. This, of course, if the republi'
cans make wise nominations. If
discredited candidates are chosen,
even the tremendous momentum
which the republican current has
attained might not be strong enough
to carry the party into power. One
of the perils attaching TO such a
victory as the republicans have
Just gained is the over confidence
which unrestricted power often
brings but it will hardly have this
effect with republicans III the present
instance. Intelligent republicans
know that no patty can continue to
win unless il deserves TO win. The
republican party rests lis assurance
of victory on the inherent strength
of its cause, aod It's ability, courage
and honesty in carrying it out, and
it is safe to predict that the party
will successfully meet all thes. tests.

The school controversy in Mantle

The school controversy in Mantle
ba has been temporarily settled by a
compromise. Parochial schools may
be re-opened, but they must be sup
ported entirely by Catholics, and
those who patronize such schools
will be exempt from taxation for the
maintenance of the public school
system. 1t is said that this arrange
ment is satisfactory to both Protest
ants and Catholics, and yet it is
really only begging the question,
with the certainty that it Will come
up again in the near future.

A LAWYERS VOCABULARY.
Choice Slang Of Attorney Taylor on
the Stand.
Violence Was Expected, and a Deputy
Sheriff Placed on Duty in
Citizens Clothes.

There is q saying that lawyer makes a
bad witness, and James Taylor was an
exemplifcation of the old saying in Justice
CAROLS court yesterday. He was sued by
Attorney J. c. Bates for $50 for legal
services. Bates claimed that Taylor. en-
ployed him as the agent of number OF
property-ownest to defeat the sale of certain
lots under the Potrero- avenue extension.
1t is very seldom that one lawyer sues
another for legal services. In this case
both sides fought bitterly. When the case
was called about week ago Taylor became
very excited at certain of Bates statements
and made a rush for the Iong-whlskered
plaintiff. They did not come to blows
owing to Justice CAROLS interference.
Yesterday Justice Carroll, who expected
another outbreak, had communicated with
the Sheriff's office and had big deputy IN
court in citizens clothes. Taylor was
wholly unaware of the trap set for him. 1t
turned out. however, that there was no
need of the deputy's services, Tor, though
TayIor was violent at times, his vehemence
was strictly confined to his language.
"Did YOU sign the agreement with Bates
as an agent for the othersT' asked Bates
Not by jug full, 1 did not, you bet"
said TAYLOR, in his choicest manner,
humping loudly with his fist on the JUS
tees bench until the chandeliers ratified.
Il amt a millionaire, but 1 always have
enough money to pay my honest debts:
Me paw for the others? Nv dear boy"
continued Taylor, addressing Bates, who
is old enough to be his father, ''that is the
height of absurdity. If go out and treat
for cigars you don't expect me to set 'em
up all the time, do your"
There were more thumps on the table,
and more words between Taylor and Bates.
"All I want is the truth in this matter,
and, by golly," shouted Taylor, ''the rela-
tions of client and lawyer should be
sacred
The shivers ran down the back of Justice
Carroll at the elegant expressions of the
witness attorney. He brought the case to
a close by saying he was satisfied that
Taylor was responsible for his pro rata OF
the debt, but not that he was liable for the
others as agent. Bates counsel asked for
permission to file authorities on the point,
and the case went over.
