M'kINLEY's ELECTION CELEBRAT-
ED BY THE DEMOCRATIC
CLUB OF NEW YORK.
TRIUMPH OF THE PEOPLE.
RECENT CAMPAIGN AND IT'S RE-
SUITS REVIEWED BY EX-GOV.
FLOWER.
OPPORTUNITY OF REPUBLICANS.
By Wise Legislation ON Currency
and Tariff They May Remove
Causes of Grievance.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-For the first
time in its history the Democratic club
tonight celebrated the election of a
Republican president. A dinner was
given to ex-Gov. Flower in recognition
of his services in the campaign. There
were present two prominent Repub-
licans-Edward Lauterbach, of this
city, and Congressman Curtis, of St
Lawrence county-and also several
Democratic members who had voted
for Bryan, as we'll as other prominent
Democrats. The speakers were Robert
B. Roosevelt, who presided; ex-Gov.
Flower, William Bynum, ex-Gov. Wall
er, Charles Holman, of Maine; John
Dewitt Warner, Gen. Curtis, w. F.
Sheehan and w. E. Curtis.
Mr.. Flower introduced his remarks
with references to the results of the re-
cent election. The triumph, he said,
was clearly the peoples triumph, and
he was glad for one, to acknowledge
frankly that no two men seemed in
clined to appreciate SO keenly the nom
partisan nature of their victory as do
the men most directly interested, Maj.
Mckinley and Mr.. Hanna
Mr.. Flower said it could not be de-
MED that a large part of Bryan's sup
port was due to conviction, which has
some foundation for existence. that
the burdens of government have not
been equally divided and its privileges
not impartially distributed 1t would
be the duty of the Republican party
not to aggravate that condition by un-
wise or partisan legislation, and to
eradicate, wherever possible, any just
cause for grievance. Two measures,
the tariff and currency, would most
prominently engage the attention of
congress and the new president He
(Mr. Flower) would like to see a speak
patriotic enough to cast aside the ira
ditionaI precedent surrounding the ap-
pointment of the ways and means COM
mittee and, bearing in mind particu-
larly the lessons of the last election,
select from the business men of both
parties in the house the members best
qualified in point Of character and ex-
perience to frame a revenue bill which
would give satisfaction substantially
to all the people and which would give
revenue enough for the support Of the
government, economically administer
ed. He would also like to see a speaker
brave enough and broad enough, with
the support of his political associates,
to adopt the same patriotic course
towards the solution of the money
question.
