THE AFTERMATH.



DO we crow? Well well do ducks swim
The 'I-Told-You-Sos' are plentiful just
now.
The Democrats were very gloomy in town
yesterday
And now-who will fill the subordinate
positions?
Gordon Reed is slated for tho stewardship
at the almshouse
Two of the defeated Democratic candi-
dates are of Irish descent
Saloon influence is mighty lever in
Schuylkill county politics.
Amt we happy, and the other fellow is
draining the bitter cup-or glass.
Steward Hartman, of the almshouse, is said
to have leased a hotel at Minersville.
The victory of Tuesday firmly plants
Schuylkill in the Republican column.
THAT man Middleton is still among the
living, while the other fellow can't be found
"Jacll" Whitehouse is a dead duck in the
pit, so far as the Republican party is con-
cerned
The political efIusions of certain writers,
previous to the election, makes out laughable
reading just now.
Whatever certain people advocate is sure of
defeat. The Democrats of town know this
from experience.
We are as happy as the day is long. Some
people we know are chewing the end OF
disappointment.
The Schuylkill Republicans had something
up their sleeves that proved an astounding
surprise to the enemy.
r. II. Koch, ESD of Pottsville, was de
foated for Judge in Berks county by the
usual Democratic majority.
The HERALD is legitimate newspaper
and employs competent men in all its depart
ments, hence its readers get the news as i
occurs-no political fakes.
For three years in succession this county
has gone Republican. Nothing can stop he
going the same way in 1896
The problem that most of the Democrat
are trying to solve is how Dunn, Keegal
and Downey happened to fall by the wayside
Our townsman, Charles J. Quinn, is beinl
complimented upon the manner in which h,
conducted the Dunn campaign in this section
His political sagacity showed itself in many
ways
Charles Z. Breckons made a creditablc can
vass and his defeat for District Attorney j
received with much regret by his friends
can be accounted for very easily A Repub
lican brother-in-law of the Democratic can
didate was instrumental in bringing it about
Just think of Schuylllill going Republican
with nearly 300 Republicans in Shenandoah
holding back
1t must be tantalizing to the Democrats o
this borough to see 50 much of their ticket g
to pieces after they had so thoroughly or
ganized themselves, worked so hard an,
spent so much money in its behalf
Master can now clearly see that he wa
nominated for County Controller on tn
Democratic ticket merely as an attraction
They wanted his weight for the campaign
and on election day they dropped him.
The Democrats of town have one consola
ton, They didn't go to the expense q
getting the brass bands out on Tuesday night
Interest in the county election was so grea
that many people forgot that there wer
elections in other states, The news of tn
SlNdu hOpu"llIdH Nl'lOllN lNlI4lluCi Vhch y
the distant battles.
g The array of long faces about the telegrap
Office and hotels yesterday afternoon whe
the returns came in from Pottsville was
, sight worth beholding.
The sight of the roostcrs at the head of tn
o HERALD columns last night staggered som
of the Democrats who went to their bed
, Tuesday night full of confidence.
Good advice: Never leave home on
journey without a bottle of Chamberlain
Collie, Cholera and DiarrhGa Remedy. Fc
