COUNTY ELECTION.

In this county we have done aswell
as at any time since 1900 and reduced
majorities all round. Republicans
concede Fay Smiths election BY 5Oto 6O
So Fay will be the next clerk of the
court. Hurrah for Fay. Watson
made fine race IN the Seventy sixth
district and for a time it was thought
be was elected, but Haven township
spoiled all calculations by only bring
ing in ten majority instead of seventy
FIVE as expected. This with only one
or two other precincts with very small
losses are the only ones that do not
show good gains. Watson comedies
Botkln's election by "a on returns
known.
Mr.. DeBard in the Seventy-seventh
district is defeated. We can not tell the
majority but it is probably 70 to 100. He
put up an elegant fight but could not
overcome the majority in NickersOn
and the Hutchinson Third Ward.
Frank Field for state senator is cleo
ted by 25O majority. Swltzer has con-
coded it and Mr.. Field has gone home
happy. No mistake was made in his
nomination. Stuart for probate judge
on Wednesday night was claimed by
the News by 81 and is probably elected
but considering former majorities this
is good showing for Arnold.
Dayhoff for superintendent had
made a very thorough and active can
vass while Woodson was unable to
make any. For this reason DayhOff is
considerably ahead probably 300 or
perhaps more. Woodson ran far ahead
where he was known.
On State and National tickets ma
jorities Of two years ago have been re-
uced by more than half. The ma
jOrities for the republican ticket are
probably about 300.
John Brehm was beaten for CON-
missioner by something upwards of 81 0.
He lost considerably by his name be-
ing left off the democrat ticket. But
his district being in the city alone it
would be a meracle if he was elected.
Fierce, for County Attorney, is
probably beaten by a very narrow
margin, probably less than fifty.

THE prospect for famine of large
magnitude IN India continues to grow
no less. In fact it is already COM
menced and from present reports in
stead Of having grain surplus it will
be compelled to import. When there is
no such surplus for export, it effect
ually percludes the use Of American
silver in buying Indian wheat for ex-
port to England in competition with
ours. 1t is no wonder that we have
had a rise in wheat in this country
The only wonder IS that wheat prices
in the face of it does not keep higher.

TIE election returns, though at
this time indefinite, and somewhat
meagre, demonstrate very clearly the
new sectionalism Of the west aud
south against the east 1t is every
whit as marked as was expected and if
Bryan is defeated it will be as we have
said before, because his majOrities do
not lap far enough across the Mississ-
ippl river. This sectionalism like the
old, is deplorable, but it is better than
servile submission to the domination of
the rich and naughty east, which for
years has pushed and crowded its Sec
tionalism upon us. In their averice
they have forced us to unsheath the
saber and cry, Douglass thou art
dehed."

RUSSIA GOING 10 SILVER.

A SPECIAL dispatch to the Rocky
Mountain News dated at Chicago says:
Sir MoretOn Frewen has given out
the following notes Of an interesting
interview at Budapest with NJ. Leon
Raffalovich. AT the Budapest agri-
cultural congress the Russian govern
ment was represented by Minister of
Agriculture M. Raffalovich, thu presI-
dent Of the Bank of Commerce at St.
Petersburg. Leon Raffalovich is q
leader in that brilliant group of tinan.
ciers who have succeeded during the
last ten years in bringing order out of
chaos in the financial affairs of Russia.
N. Raffslovich was asked to tell how
the Russian propOsalO of currency reform
is to emerge. The statement has been
made during the last eight months that
Russia is getting ready to use her enor-
nous boards Of gold to resume specie
payments in gold and under gold
standard.
II am aware" said the Russian
banker, that misleading statements
have appeared, especially in London.
We are credited with intending to
adopt gold standard, but this, in the
ordinary term, is far from our inten
ton" You may say rather that we
intend to resume specie payments in
silver rOubles.
You will bear in mind how entirely
unsuited to the modern conditions of
an agricultural community such as we
are, gold currency must be. Russia
has large amounts of debt contracted
abroad. She Is a debtor nation. Our
railways have been built with loans
made in Paris and elsewhere we pay
the interest on those loans by our ex.
ports Of wheat. Did we throw our.
selves on a gold standard, we would
impair very seriously indeed our ability
to export our agricultural produce.
We're our exports to be thus checked
it would be serious matter for us,
indeed, itwould break down our scheme
Of currency reform after much distress,
and drive us back to a paper money
regime.
m. Dewitte's proposal as agreed to
practically many months since by the
council of state is this: We have got at
present in our circulation 500 900, OOC
of paper rubles, the notes being from
one to five roubles, only. We pro.
pose to cancel these notes and pul
coined silver in their place. SEEING
that our smallest gold coin is to be fol-
ten roubles five and a half gold dollar
all the mass of small notes will re-
quire to be replaced as fast as cancelled
by paying out coined silver roubles Il

VICTORIOUS IN SPITE OF POs9I-
BLE DEFEAT.

WHETHER Mr.. Bryan is elected OF
not we regard this campaign as a glori.
Gus victory. The lines have been
drawn between the people and the
trusts. An issue has at last been forced
between humanity and the dollar. A
very large and respectable minority, if
not a majority, realize not only that the
toilers, and the producers are beingrap
idly reduced to servility such as bows
and depresses the pea5antry of Europe,
but they realize that such condition
Is not the normal and necessary
condition of labor in this country
These are the two prime requisites to
the accomplishing of the grand pur-
poses for which We are fighting. Many
men have been impressed with the idea
that something is wrong, that the lot of
the average man is rough and hard,
that the contest is unequal and against
him. but they seem to settle their minds
to it in kind of despair that moth
ing can be accomplished in
resisting what they consider the newt.

When such man realizes that his
condition is not one of necessity, that
God did notordain that one man should

the lap of luxury and Cypress him, but
that such conditions are artificial and

at this writing which is on election
day, and knowing nothing Of the re-
suits Of election we wish to make few
observations on the remarkable career
of q remarkable man. Even though
the battle should 90 against him he
has fixed for himself a name in the his
tory Of the United States which will
not be effaced even should the fortune
of life decree that he could not in fu-
ture take q part in the political and
economic battles of his country.
A campaign Of such marvellous moral
physical and intellectual vigor has
never before been known. His frank
ness in telling the people not to vote
for him IL they do not believe in the
principles he represents and thus en-
danger.ng the loss of the votes Of q
a.. n ought lUem
selves democrats H.. hhi gold mru
afterwards, was an innovation in the
Iiue of political honesty which sets a
president for independent voting for
principles instead Of the prejudice Of
party that will result in endless good
to the republic. To be sure MIR. Bryan
is not the only orator who has made
this an important part of his doctrine
but he has been a magnificent leader
of the thought. The physical force he
has displayed in the campaign has been
the wonder of man and the admiration
of all. His constitution is founda-
ton of rock for the work of a great
lie. OF course he has one great ad-
vantage over all his predecessors as
candidates for the same high hOnors,
in that he is just coming into the prime
Of physical and intellectual existance
whereas in the majority Of instances,
they were just passing out Of it. Yet
singularly enough his opponents tried
to make this an argument against him.
intellectually, Mr.. Bryan is no less
a prodigy than physically. He not
only is profound man-One that
can grapple with the intricate and
hidden parts Of economics, but als9
one that is ready, conservative, eau
tious, discreet and practical. Very
few of his speeches have been deliv-
cred from manuscript. nearly all had
the appearance of being extempo-
rsneous, YET he seldom repeated him
ssIf; all were interesting even when
reduced to writing, and with all the
hundreds, perhaps thousands of such
speeches, he never said anything that
the enemy could take up as catch
word to use against him.
Even though Mr.. Br! an should be
defeated, il he lives he Will play an
important roll in the drama Of the
future, and when the principles he
represents, triumph as they will, he
will probably be the standard bearer
who will plant the colOrs on tie ram
parts to the citidel of the powers of
conservatism and greed.

sents about 9 100000 Kilograms of sill
yer an amount about equal to all that
isproduCed by the worlds mines in
two years. Nor IS this all. In Russia
we are very short, indeed, of small
change. In silver and copper, all told,
this pocket money is less than a rouble
per capita (halfa dollar. In Germany
the small change currency authorized
by law and actually issued Is ten
marks per capita, or eight times the
amount of silver as we have. Thus to
complete our currency requirements,
we shall need further 100000 kilO.
grams for our small change issue. The
silver rouble is to be legal tender for
any amount to our government, that
is, for customs, duties and all taxes,
for exeise-in short, for all our myriad
officials.
'As between individuals, the nomi.

one payment. But, seeing that it is to
be unlimited in legal tender to the
government, also that the government
will exercise its prerOgative in paying
its soldiers and sailors and all other
employees in silver or gold at its option,
no one, except, prehaps, in the case Of
long leases or other long time con-
tracts, will decline silver when ten

a mighty autocrat in the money mar
ket. There is not so much gold as that
in Great Britain. Perhaps not more
in all the United States. Where we
shall get this silver l am not, Of course,
in a position to say. Remember, with
the Transcaspian railway, we are
reaching out for the trade of Manchu-
ria and northeastern China, and the
trade of all that country to the Pacific
has to be transacted with silver.
II may add that the Americans
have lost a golden opportunity during
the last two years. Never have the
leading financiers of Europe been 20
shaken in their gold faith as since that
worldwide disaster precipitated by
the Ii dan government in 1898. We
are and W have been open to conVic-
tion, but W. have looked to the great
republic with no little solicitude to
lead the way. Possibly with new
administration, we may yet hear from
America. Otherwise, the prospect is
gloomy. The virus Of that poison in
iected by India in 1893 into the body of
the United States still remains in her
system. Cheap silver, that is to say,
the low rate Of silver exchange with
all Asia, is still q terrible menace o
all that America exports. Perhaps
worse is to follow. Silver may not
improbably fall even lower, and in do
ing so, drag down with it all else, land,
labor, and fixed capital, but people are
teachable in one way only, through
their suffering, if continued long
