Thomas as Minister to Sweden and Nor
way.-Portland Advertiser.
All that Is said by the Advertiser in
the above extract concerning Mr.. Thorn
ass fitness for the Swedish mission and
his valuable services to the Republican
party in this campaign is the simple,
unexaggerated truth; and that the pro.
priety of returning him to the position
which he,flled with such distinguished
acceptance both to this country and
Sweden during two Republican admin.
istrations will be SO obvious to the incom.
ing administration that one of its first
acss will be to send his name to the Sen.
ate, cannot be doubted.

srR. THOMAS AND THE SWEDISH
MISSION,

One result Of the great Republican
victory will undoubtless be the restora-
tion of Hon. William W. Thomas, j., to
the post of Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary at Stockholm.
It can BIZ said, without qualification,
that no other American is SO we'll
equipped to serve his country at that
capital as Mr.. Thomas. Founder of one of
the most prosperous Swedish colonies in
the New World, CONSUL to Sweden under
A braham Lincoln, minister under Presi-
dent Arthur, and again under President
Harrison, anJhor of "Sweden and the
and America, joined in the marriage
with daughter of the Netherland, speak
ing the Swedish language as a native,
persona grata both in Sweden and among
the entire Swedish American population
of the United States, Mr.. Thomas's en-
tire life work has been to make him the
most fitting representative America can
send to the Scandinavian peninsula.
Mr.. Thomass strong hold upon the
Swedes and Norwegians of this country
was signaIly shown in the political con-
test now happily ended. Early in the
campaign MI. Thomas began to make
vigorous speeches for the sound money
cause and has been one of the hardest
and most successful workers in the East
ern and Western States, especially among
the Swedish aud Norwegian farmers Of
the Northwest. His appeals in their own
tongue have had instant aud widespread
effect Probably If the Swedish Ameri-
cans could elect minister to Stock h DIN
Mr.. Thomas would have a unanimous
vote. 1t is hoped and expected that one
of the first official acts of President Nc
KiDley will be the reappointment OF Mr..

than William Jennings Bryan. Crowds
followed him wherever he went. and
cheered his words. That his head wal

pro badly accounts for his confident belief
in his election. HI had come to regard
himself RS a man of destiny specially
raised up to deliver the people. When
he said he had no doubt of his election
he probably believed it.

three months to Bryan. Capital has
been frightened, enterprise benum bed, in

Now that we have utterly annihjlated
Bryan and 10 to !, let everybody pluck

THE COUNTRY is SAFE.

William Mckinley has been elected by
an overwhelming majority, and the
anxiety OF all patriotic hearts gives place
to a JOY too profound for expression. IL
is not only q victory, but one 80 com
plete and decisive as to answer the fer
vent prayers of loyal men. Bryan.
Organism, Altgeldism, the free silver
conspiracy, and the deep plots of Anar-
chy, are all buried under an avalanche
of ballots. There have been few grander
| moments in the history of self-govern-
ment than this. 1t lifts up all manhood
to see a nation of seventy millions trl-
umph 80 completely over its own lower
impulses, it's own past errors, Its own
baser elements. 1t is bnt four years
since amazing ignorance of our own his
tory and the conditions OF past growth
and prosperity. passionate hatred OF
corporations and creditors, sectional feel
ing at the West and South, and base ap-
peals to the poor against the rich and to
workinRmen against employers, produced
an astonishing vote for q change at the
acme of general welfare. 1t is bit few
years since fanatical desire for silver
coinage and cheap money swept the conn
try like prairie tire. Today the whole
nation rises by treating ON its miata kes
and its own most dangerous tendencies,

who contributed to the error, in the tri-
umphant shouts with which the najori-
W in this greatest of Democratic cities

wa formally launched last S:.ttlr-

committee Of Madison County.
One Of the resolutions adopted by

nomination Of \Ir. Cahoon reads
as follows:
We believe the harmony and
best interests OF the Republican
party Of Missouri require that its
nominee for Governor should he
from the country. and be 4 man
like Mr.. Cahoon. who is in no
manner identified with the conflict
inc differences in the various ele-
ments q the party. which seem to
be incident Of and inSeparahic from

Southeast Missouri has no better
man or better Republican than Mr..
Caho0n and the whole state CON
tains none better qualified to fill
the eubcrnatoria! chair than he.
He should 90 into the convention
with the solid support Of every
county in Southeast Missouri. The
Grand work Of thi; section in the
election Of 1874 demands rccogni-
ton from the Republican. party in
Missouri. and in consideration of
the service rendered even the first
place on the ticket will not be too
high a tribute. We hope to see
Mr.. Cahoons boom gather strength
as time rolls on.

attributed to the Republican mem
bers. The Republican House has

demanded. Politics were laid aside
and patriotism came to the from,
to help Tie country on its feet

patriotism of Congress seems t.
have ended. When the relc1
measures reached the Senate they
were met by an organized gang O
obstructionists, composed OF tiI'
Democratic minority Of that body
aided by few PoruliSts. Th'
Democrats oppose the measure
to keep their political enemies, tn
Republicans, from receiving th
credit which must accrue if tn
bills are made Il law. The Popu
lists oppose because they put thel
pet ideas and fallacics before til
