gruntlement that was passing over the
country, and that with reviving busl-
ness and better times the votes OF the
two parties would come pretty near To-
gether again. But the results OF yester-
day dispel all probability of the reallza-
ton of this hope in the near future.
Nowhere except in New York city are
there any indications whatever OF
Democratic revival, and there the
apparent revival is not SO much
revival of the Democracy as the deter
mined uprising Of people who want beer
on Sunday afternoon. In the state DEM
ocracy it is at as low an ebb as it was
year ago. Over in New Jersey there was
a Democratic slump instead of a revival,
which gives the Republicans complete
control of the state. something that has
not been known for score of years. But
Ohio furnished the best and most con-
elusive evidence that there has been no
turn in the tide. In the case OF New
York the result could be attributed with
some FEASIBILITY, to apathy. There was
little campaigning outside of the Cities
and there local issues we1e paramount
In the aserof New Jersey it could be said
that the scandalous conduct of the last
Democratic legislature was potent fac
tor in the Democratic overthrow. But
neither explanation is applicable to
Ohio. There was the liveliest campaign
in that state that it has seen for many a
year. The Democrats had at the head Of
their ticket their most popular and power
full leader, and he made campaign
which for yigor and skill has rarely been
equalled They also had the benefit Of
Senator Brice's millions, and of all 4 the
influence that the national administra-
ton could exert. Local issues and
national issues figured in the canvass /;
there were rallies galore; and the thor
oughness of the stirring up is shown by
the fact that the total vote of the state
was larger than ever before. That
under these circumstances the Republic
can majority should equal Mckinley s
phenomenal majority of two years ago
shows that whatever revival of business
there may have been has had no effect to
revive the Democratic parry. Iowa too
furnishes an excellent demonstration of
the same fact. The Republican candi-
date for governor in that state was not
very popular and he had some entangling
railroad alliances that tended to hurt him ;
and the perplexiug question of prohibition
figured in the campaign. Nevertheless
the Republican majority will. be about
the same as two years ago. A great many
Democrats appear to have deserted their
own party and voted the Populist ticket
for the Popuilst vote has largely increased
and the Democratic fallen off. The re-
suit in these two states make it impossi-
BILE for the Democrats to deny that the
tide is setting against them just as
strongly as a year ago and forbid them
to entertain the hope that there will be
any change next year that will give-them
the slightest chance of electing President.
Indeed it was practically settled by
the elections of Tuesday THAT the next
President is to be Republican.

The Good Government ticket polled but
thousand votes in New York, SO the
secret Of Tammany's triumph must be
looked for outside of that. Perhaps
when the votes are tabulated so that
they can be analysed some clear light
will be thrown upon the matter. Proba-
bly,, however, it is case CT the pendu-
aum's swinging back again. Spasmodic
effort such as the uprising against Tam
many last year W as essentially is almost
always succeeded by apathy. Then, too,
the desire for Sunday beer detached a
good many voters from the anti
Tammany ranks. There is one con-
ISOLATION about the result, however
1t brings to Tammany 10 prac-
tical power. The city is still in the con-
troll of the reform element, and the
thirsty devotees of beer have still to reck-

the increased plurality for Gov Green
halge is one of the most gratifying feat
ures of the election. A determined at
tempt was made by a faction to rebuke
him because he would not give any coun-
tenance to its scheme of ostracizing
people on account of their religion. Had
it succeeded it would have been distinct
public injury, because it would have
given the faction a standing and power
in political matters which no association
organized for such purpose ought to
get, and would have tended to crush the
spirit of independence in officials which
ought to be encouraged rather than re-
buked. The A. P. A. association made
a very bad mistake in going into the

ESTES AND LAURIAT'S HOLIDAY
PUBLICATIONS.
The books of this publishing house in
clude sets of standard works, holiday
editions, and juveniles and at this season
of the year offer a tempting array to
Christmas purchasers. Scott's Rob Roy
appears in two volumes, bound in orna-
mented cloth, of olive green with white
and gold decoration, slip covers and
boxed. Choice paper and print, illustra-
tions in photo-etcning and photogravure
and bit of green satin by way of book
mark, complete the outward garb OF
these handsome volumes. Rob Roy
stands, with Ivanhoe, first among the
Waverleys, in the group included under
romantic fiction. Perhaps Scott's finest
achievement is where he deals with the
people nearest him, in his own environ
ment and makes story of history, as with
Effie Deane; but Rob Roy' was always
enchanting and what valiant heart but
