OK Tuesday last Mckinley and
Hobart were elected President and
Vice. President OF the United States.
The first-named to succeed President
Cleveland and the second to succeed
Vice President Stevenson. Some will
attempt to explain the reason for Mr..
Bryan's defeat, but the most PLAUSIBLE
reason of any that can be given, is
that Mckinley got the must votes,
In advocating the election of Hon.
William Jennings Bryan the MEssEN-
GER did what il believed was its duty
to the people, and second it represented
the desires of large majority of its
constituency. The farmers and bust
ness men of this county believe that
times are about as hard as they can
be and they want a change. In the
election of Mr.. Bryan they saw more
hope of getting such change as they
desired than they did in the election
of Mr.. Mckinley. We are conscious
of having done our duty. of having
advocated the election OF as pure and
honorable statesman as the American
people ever voted for, but victory has
perched apon the banner of Mckinley
and those who elected him have prom
ised the people greater prosperity,
peace and plenty. May we all
realize these promises.

The campaign just ended was prac-
tically unprecedented in the amount
Of popular enthusiasm which it invol-
we'd. Never before, not even during
the Lincoln campaign of 1860. were
the suffragans Of the country so tre-
mendously aroused. In justice, it
should be said that this unparalleled
enthusiasm could be largely traced to
the defeated candidate, Mr.. William
J. Bryan. The magnetic individual
ity Of this man is freely acknowledged
BY members of all parties. Probably
in no other instance in this country
was any other candidate so subjected
to the cathode rays OF public inspec-
ton, and certainly no other man ever
passed through such public exami-
nation with more credit or renown.
Therefore, though beaten in a fair
contest, the American people will,
with pride. accord to Mr.. Bryan the
tribute due to a citizen peculiarly dis
tinguished by eminent endowments
and worth.-BdLto. Herald.

WHEN we look over the election
returns and study them carefully it is
amazing to discover how many
anarchists" socialists" revolution
lists" "repudiators" and such like
there are in the United States. If
the entire Democratic party is COM
posed Of the elements which slanderous
Republican tongues and the traducing
gold standard press so charged it with
being, then elements of that descrip-
ton are surprisingly large in numbers.
Now that the election has passed per-
haps many of the Republican orators
feel mortified that they should have
resOrted to such mean, little, degraded
measures for the making Of votes as
was exempliied in their abuse of the
followers OF Democracy. Abuse or no
abuse the old party of Jefferson re-
mains undismayed and unterrifed.-

Now that this extraordinary cam
paign is happily ended, ii is most
earnestly to be hoped that the per-
sonal and social divisions and dissen-
sions that have been created by it will
be forgotten and forgiven. Intense
bitterness of feeling-leading even to
social ostracism in many cases-was
produced by a struggle which arrayed
old personal and political friends and
associates against each other and which
developed charges and counter-charges
we'll calculated to irritate aud offend
But Americans should have too much
sense, as well as too much manliness
to bear malice against each other or to
remember with bitterness the words
which have been uttered in the heat
Of the battle. What people Of all
parties and all sections should remem-
Der is that we are all Americans. citi-
zens of common country OF which we
all have reason to be proud and in
whose prosperity we are all equally
interested. Whatever differences OF
opinion we may have entertained or
may still entertain on the prominent
issues Of the campaign, we cannot
afford, as patriots, to perpetuate ILL
will or bad feeling. Acquiescing in
the result as the will Of the majority,
we should put away all personal ami
mosities and clasp hands again with
the former friends from whom we may
have been separated or toward whom
we may have grown cold during the
political conflict just ended.-Baito.

PHILADELPHIA, Monday. Nov ., 1896
We have taken over the
entire merchandise assets of
the late firm of Hilton, Hughes
& Co.. Broadway and Tenth
street, New York - goods
amounting to $4,000 at
their last reduced selling
prices. Very many of the
stocks have been brought to
Philadelphia and are being
sold at an average of half the
Hilton, Hughes & Co. prices,
and every stock offered in
Philadelphia has been brought
over from the New York house
in its entirety, thus giving Our
Public the opportunity to sup
ply present and future wants
at prices ridiculously low.
ust a hint of the lines we
have now on sale:
All the Colored Dress

All the Fancy Silks
All the Nelvets
All the Black Dress Goods
All the Ribbons

1t is impossible to print
prices because many of the
individual lots find owners as
soon as the goods go on sale,
and it will be impossible to
send samples of the goods,
but there never was a time
when a visit to Philadelphia
has meant such a saving in
dollars to needers of depend
able high class goods.
