Tho election OF Major Mchinley en-
phasizes the good Judgment and the IN
teiligence Of American voters and II fur-
nishes a guarantee that this country Is
not yet ready to divorce ITSELF from d
sound financial system.
The campaign just ended was pgacticdl-
" unprecedented in the amount OF popu-
lar enthusiasm which IL evolved. Never
before, not even during the Lincoln cam
paipn Of 1860. were the sunragans OF tne
country so tremendously aroused. IN
Justice IL should be said tnat this I'M
paralleled enthusiasm could be- largely
traced to the defeated candidate, Mr.
William j. Bryan. The mas eric ir-
dividuality of thi. man is freely a"kf ow-
lodged by members OF an parties. frcb-
ably in no other instance in this com Try
was any other candidate so subj sc-ed 10
the cathode rays OF public Inspection. ard
certainly no other man ever passed
through such q public examination with
more credit or renown.
Therefore though beaten IN ialF con-

nuhl,c nerves was well exemplified by the
excitement Of a large crowd. which, de-
snite the rain. assembled around the
newspaper offices for several hours last
night eager for news of the election
The greater part Of the crowd were
in sympathy with Bryan. and cheereu
him Justify. and upon the measrest
thread Of hope. went wild win oe-
light The most absurd rumors were
accepted as facts. and suggestion Oh
possibility was 10 them confirmation
strong as proof Of holy writ
While all the news Of any reliability
whatever had throughout the evening
gone entirely to sustain the election OF
Mckinley the election OF Bryan was
thought by the crowd TO be an estab-
lished fact.
The baldest and most unsubstantial
claims Of Mr.. Jones were put out 10
show that Bryan was elected, and were
quite sufficient to make men and boys
shout themselves hoarse.
The moral OF all this is that 1t IS
both unwise and unpatriotic for any
one. in any way, TO add to the strain
under which our people have been labor
ing. Where facts come in, the people
should have them but TO put out ru-
mors and boastful claims, in the face OF
reliable information TO the contrary.
merely 10 excite a very easily excited
crowd. is not the part of good citizens.
Before this election was held. we coun-
seued moderation and ready acQuies-
cence in the result when it should be
ascertained and declared. We do so
now. though not more emphatically IMAM
before the result was known.
Mckinley is beyond any reasonable
doubt elected by vote OF from 244 to "a
and the contentious which Chairman
Jones is raising are very premature-at
least as far as anybody else can find
out. Perhaps Chairman Jones has pri-
vate information that neither the Re
nubIicans nor anybody else has been able
70 discover. but IL he has he ought TO
give it out TO the public, and not keep
it TO himself.
From the best information we can get
the electoral vote stands thus:
