THE ARKANSAS AFTERMATH.

The contraction of the democratic
the currency, according to silver bugs,
since the crime of1S73. Returns from
all but two counties give a democratic
majority of IS, $40, which is less than
the republican maj jJrity in Vermont.
The republican vote has increased
nearly O,OOO, and the democratic ma
iority fallen off over ZOO since 1894.
The latter is also 2,310 less than the
majority cast for Cleveland in 1892,
when the free silver agitation was
quiescent. If there is any overwhelm-
ing sentiment at the south in favor of
the principles of the Chicago plat
form it has not manifested itself in
Arkansas.
Our sympathies are due those able
organs who have insisted that the
Arkansas election reflected the true
state of public feeling on the sill
yer question more accurately than
Vermont In the light of the
the latest returns we should be quite
content to see the relative pOnGIcaI
situation in Arkansas repeated in
North Carolina or Kentucky.
How the democratic majority came
to be stated from 80, 600 to 40, GOO high
er than it really was is a mystery
which those familiar with Arkansas
politics may be able to solve. Per-
haps the advocates of fifty cent dol
lar counted every democratic vote
twice. At any rate their awakening
is as rude as that of the country would
be if it should listen to their promises.
