a more widespread effect than many
anticipated and was responsible for
the defeat Of the Republican state can
didate and productive Of a warning
that it will be suicidal not to heed an
other time. Nothing short of the ut
most folly on the part Of the Republi-
cans can convert New York to the
Democracy another year and it is diff
cult to consider state of affairs so
bad as to turn over "the enemy's
country" to Organism in a presidential
election. No, New York state is not
for Accent dollars If the issue is
suuarely presented and if the Republi-
cans heed mistakes they will have that
issue so presented at the next con-
gressional elections.
There is nothing surprising in Ken
lucky and nothing to encourage Demo-
Gratis except that they have again
come into possession of their own.
In Maryland, in view of the friction
between some of the Republican lead
ers, the natural political complexion of
the state and Germans straddle so
alluring to the instincts of the average
Democrat to vote straight whenever
the slightest pretext for so doing is
presented, there surely is nothing
very discouraging to Republicans. 1t
certainly would require several such
victories to assure the Democrats of
national success under the banner of
Popocracy.
In the state of Nebraska Bryanism
let itself loose and failed to approach
the results it attained there a year
ago.
In Iowa the issue of sound and un.
sound money, Republicanism and
Bryanism was squarely presented.
Bryan began his work there last
spring. A month before election he
went through the state telling the peo-
them. The eyes Of the world now read
splendid, glorious off year victory
for Republicanism.
Mr.. Bryan did not come to Massa-
chusetts. He had ample confidence in
Mr.. Williams to represent him, and
George Fred did. He just revelled in
Popocratic plants. The Republicans
on the contrary thought him hardly
worthy of notice. This rather risky
assumption proved to be the correct
one. The only encouragement Democ-
racy can find there must be extracted
from the fact that the Democratic
party has lost in that state over 10000
votes since 1894.
Not one of the least of the sources
of encouragement for Republicans is
the fact that nothing the administra-
tion has done or not done is responsible
for any changes that have taken place.
lies in the fact that the theory
of the pendulum, while again demon
strated, has been partially neutralized
in that it was not permitted to swing
so far the other way as usual. And
not the least of encouragement the
Republicans have is that they have
been shown the need of strengthening
the lines in certain places and the lines
will be strengthened. Moreover it will
be borne in mind that the Bryans. Alt
gelds ct ais, can extract enough SUM-
shine from a cucumber to warm them
into pernicious activity. It's well
that the Democratic shouts are i'm
pressing this on the average Republi-
can mind for there is work ahead for
every true Republican. and those who
shirk, or sulk or sacrifice party veal
for petty ambition must fall in with
the workers or get out of the way.

Train-Wrecking.

State legislatures are just begin
ming to recognize the deliberate wreck
ing of a railroad train, when attended
with loss of life, as essentially murder,
to be punished accordingly. The New
York legislature, at its recent session,
passed a law making train-wrecking
which results in death crime subject
to the death penalty; and in Michigan,
which does not impose the death PEN
atty for any crime, the legislature
passed law imposing Imprisonment
for life in such cases. In Nebraska
the supreme court announces the prin-
C:ple that train-wreckiug implies a
general malice aforethought, which
makes 1t unnecessary to. prove partic-
u!ar malice against an individual who
may be killed.

More duels are fought in Germany
than in any other country. Most Of
them. however, are student duels,
which eliminate in nothing more Sc
r;ous than slashed cheeks and torn
scalps. OF all German university
towns little Jena and Goettingen are
most devoted to the code. In Goettin-
gen the number of duels averages one
day, year in and year out. One day
several years ago twelve duels were
fought in Goettingen in twenty-four
hours. In Jena the record for one day
in recent times is twenty-one. Fully
1000 student duels are fought every
year in the German empire. In addi-
ton to these there are the more Sc
riCus duels between officers and civil
iaps. Among Germans of mature
years the annual number of duels Is
about one hundred.
Next to Germany, France is most
given to the duelling habit. She has
every year uncounted meetings, mere
ly to satisfy honor" that is, merely to
give two men an opportunity to wipe
cut insults by crossing swords or firing
pistols in such manner as to preclude
the slightest chance of injury. In the
duel statistics these meetings are not
reckoned, as they are far less perilous
than even the German student duels.
OF the serious duels France can boast
fully 1000 from New Years to New
Years. The majority of these are
among army officers. More than half
of these result in wounds; nearly 20
per cent. in serious wounds.
Italy has had 2,759 duels in the last
ten years, and has lost fifty citizens
by death on the field of honor. Some
2,400 of these meetings were consum-
mated with sabres, 179 with pistols, 80
with rapiers and 1 with revolvers. In
974 cases the insult was given in news
paper articles or in public letters re-
garding literary quarrels. More than
700 principals were insulted by word
Of mouth. Political discussions led to
$50, religious discussions to 20. Wo-
men were the cause of 1879. Quarrels
at the gambling table were responsible
for 1879.
A summary shows that, as regards
numbers, the sequence of duelling
countries is: Germany, France, Italy,
Austria, Russia. AS regards deadli-
ness of duels Italy comes first. Then
Genes Germany, France, Russia and
Austria, in the order named. For the
most serious duels the pistol is the
favorite weapon in all five countries.

Mr.. Nelson replied that he had been

which should be considered carefully and
not rushed through as it had been.
Mr.. Roll wanted some proof that he
