BoURKE COCHRAN ON THE OUTCOME

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS NO FUTURE
WHICH IT CAN DETERMINE FOR ITSELF"
w. Bourke Cochran. whose efforts on behalf OF
the issue decisivey settled Tuesday 30
earnest. at his office in the Drexel Building.
at Wall and Broad SITS, yesterday as usual re-
stored, he might have remarked to his usual
occupation He said at first that there did not
seem TO be anything to discuss at the present mo.
ment but he was finally led to speak of the con.
test and to bear upon the possible future Of poll.
ties as affecting especially the Democratic party.
In reply to questions Mr. Cochran said
This not political contest, In the ordinary
meaning OF the term. II was an instruction
against the underlying principles Of civilization,
and believe It Is without parallel In the history
Of the world. 1t was an attempt to seize the Gov
eminent for the purpose of destroying the things
which government organized to protect. do
not to say that all Mr. Bryans supporters
contemplated the overthrow OF orderly govern
ment. but the less that would have been the
Inevitable consequence Of their II. how.
ever. II was disheartening to see OF the great
political parties supporting an insurrecton against
morality and social order the suppression OF the
insurrection Of the most sublime spec.
tacles presented In the history OF human
progress. A movement dangerous to civillza-
ton the world witnessed has been defeated
and. believe. forever suppressed. without the
-
single act Of coercion. The crisis through which
II has Just passed the severest test to which
our Government has been subjected The re-
suit is the browning decisive vindcation Of demo-
cratic institutions.
Il have no opinion to express as to the future Of
the Democratic party. IT has no future which It
can determine for Itself This election. In my opin-
ion was not expression of the people > to what
should be done during the next four years, but as
to what shall not be done. / do not regard II as a
4
verdict against a debasement OF the currency
against the destruction Of the Supreme Court as
an independent tribunal. and against the nulliAca-
ton or abrldgment OF the Presidents power to
force the law. In fine. 1t was verdict that the
fundamental conditions Of civilized society should
not be disturbed In this country.
Mr. Mckinley and his party will administer the
Government for the next four years. The measures
which they may propose and the standard Of his
administration will be the questions which the
people will divide into political parties If the
Administration be successful. the Republican party
will continue In power n Mr.. Mckinley falls to
obtain the confidence OF those voters who prefer
the essentials Of good government to party names.
n hostile Congress will be elected In '9s. and the
opposition will elect the President in 1900 The final
outcome Of yesterdays election no man can now
predict further than to say that the political issues
of the future depend entirely upon the character
of Mr.. Mckiney's administration"

IN THE VARIOUS COUNTIES.
The election returns for Ncw-Jersey in yester-
days Tribune were almost absoiutei! correct
remarkably so when it is considered that hum
dreds of election districts had not been heard
from I'D to daylight yesterday morning. NO
other New-York newspaper gave the results so
accurately. 1t was said in The Tribune that
1.-THE latest returns indicate that all eight or the
Republican Congressman have been reelected.
though at late hour there was some doup'
about Thomas McEwan in the With. Repub-
licans claimed the election OF seven OF the elsh'
State Senators. but the Democrats of Monmouth
were confident that Stevens had beaten FRANCIS
in Monmouth Forty-fve Of the sixty Assem-
blvmen are Republicans" Yesterdays develop
ments showed that Congressman McEwan had
been successful. that Francis likewise pulled
through. and that Hudson County for the iirst
time in its history had sent a full KepupHcaii
delegation 10 the House of Assembly. thus max
ing the Assembly stand Republicans 90 Demo-
Gratis. J. , -.
The fight was the hottest in the counties OF
Morris Sussex, Hunterdon War>h, Hudson;
Monmouth and Mddlesex. The four iirst-nained
comprise the WITH Congress District, where Man
lon Pitney was victorious after nara pattie.
In the other Counties the Democrats were not
fighting for the principles of Organism or me
principles Of anything else. They were AFTER the
Sherffs office with it's patronage us power Oh
making law violators do political service In re-
turn for promised immunity from punishment.
This Is apparent when one looks AT the returns
from Sussex Hudson. Monmouth and Middesex.
where the Democratic candidates for Sherin
were elected. while others on the ticket with
them suffered defeat
This is the latest table OF pluralIties on the
National ticket.
