The only wonder about the large
democratic majority in this State yes
terday is that it was not larger, as the
democrats not only had to manifest
their disapprobation of the republican
policy of high tariff, pension frauds,
trusts, restricted currency and negro
officials in the South, but their con-
domination of the hypocritical boilers,
who, while protesting to be opposed to
rspublicanism, do all they can to de-
feat democracy whenever they imagine
they have an opportunity to do 80.

tempted murder of Stuart McInteer. A few

painful gunshot wound in his left arm he

A PARTY of cotton manufacturers
from New Eogland have been pros
pecsing in the cotton producing section
OF the South, with the object OF either
moving their old plants to that section
or of establishing new plants there.
The facilities for all sorts of manufac
turing purposes possessed by the South
are not only unsurpassed, but unequal,
ed by those of any other portion OF
the world, and sooner or later, as the
case may be, they will be availed OF. and
the Southern States once more regain
the ascendency in the Union they lost
by the disastrous result of the war be-
tween the States.

TIE FACT that one of the President'i
postmssters in Pulaski county, in this
State, has been shot and killed while
stealing bag of wheat from 3 barn
which he had broken open at midnight

have been wiser if he had made Mr.
Bowden referee in the matter of post
Office appointments for the whole State,
instead of only for the eight congress
ional districts not represented by re-
publicans.

BALTIMORE MAY now be deemed, to
all intents and purposes, republican
city, the boilers and mugwumps there
having gone over bodily to the republi-
cans, and by means of the money at

become sick of a similar unholy ALI.

democratic column, and brought its

Croker's view of the election was set

| CrOk6I'S view OF Gl6 eleCllOu WhS sSt
forth in the following statement type.
/ written at noon yesterday and signed
by Richard Croker: "The people to-
day have registered their verdict
against hypocrisy, mendacity, personi
abuse and malice. They have given
their opinion of fake politics, fake
journalism and fake reform by electing
the entire Van Wyck ticket. This
ticket was elected before twelve
o'clock noon to-day, as our returns
now show"
Returns were being read in Tam
many Hall last night when Mr.. Croker
appeared in the doorway. Pandemo
| mum broke loose in the greeting of the
leader as he stood bowling, smiling and
shaking hands. When the tumult sub
sided Mr.. Croker spoke, as follows
Ladies' and gentlemen 1t is crown.
ing pleasure to be here to announce
that Judge Van Wyck and the whole
democratic ticket are elected by a mar.
velous majority. By this victory the
good people of Greater New York have
stamped out the force of calumny and
abuse. Tue good people of Greater
New York have decided that we were
right in campaign which We carried
on with courage and principle. 81 con-
graduate you all on this great victory
of the democratic party. You may
be sure that this victory will
bring you all more liberty and
power in civil life, and you may be
sure that whatever lays in my power
to bring about those results shall be
DONE. Let me thank you all for the
good work you have done. [ bid you
all good night"

Indigestion is often taken for con.
sumption. The word consumption
means wasting away, and dyspeptics
often waste away as badly as con.
sumptives.
The reason people waste away is be-
cause either they don't get enough to
eat, or they don't digest what they do
eat.
II the latter is your trouble, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial. This will
help you to digest your food and stop
your loss of flesh.
Shakers Digestive Cordial is made
from herbs, barks and the juices OF
fruit, by the we'll known Shakers at
Mount Lebanon. 1t possesses great
tonic and digestive powers.
Shakers Digestive Cordial has cured
many supposed consumptives (who
were really dyspeptics), by simply
helping their stomaohs to digest their
food, thus giving them nourishment
and new strength.
