THE STAY-AT-HOMES.

The stayat-homes defeated us this year.
There were thousands of Populsts who did not
go to the polls. They were thousands of Pop
ulists who did not go to the polls. They were
mostly in the country, which proves that the
Populists were the who staid at home.
We can truthfuly say that the Democrats stood
by the ticket this year. The returns show
this, for the bulk of the Democratic vote is in
the cities, and i'll the cities we made large gains
The Populsts will get such dose of Repub-
licanism i'll the next two years that they will
gladly get out to the polls at the next general
election
We are not whining, and don't intend to do
so. We will just organize and get down to bus
mess for the next big fght-aud it will be
battle royal-a fight to the finish

MIGHTY NEAR A "SKUNK."

The election is Overland we were nearly
"skuukcd," not only in Anderson county, but
in The state. 1t now appears that Ridgley, in
the Third, is the only congressman we elected.
The whole state ticket is Republican by small
majority.
In Anderson county, the only fusion candi-
dates elected were Ed Stein, for probate judge
and L. D. Kirk for county attorney.
The larger cities---or most of them-were
surprise TO the Repubicans-the Leedy ticket
showed gains in those cities. The country
vote was very light The Populis and Demo
cratic farmers staid at home. The vote does
not show that tine people of the country have
gone over to the Republicans, but it does show
that they were apathctic and took little inter
est in the election. OF course, when it is too
late, they will discover their mistake, but that
does not help matters now-the deed is done
Maybe this defeat was necessary to teach them
another and more lasting lesson. After they have
learned their lesson, they will take hand i'll
affairs once more, and give the Republicans
other drubbing.
True reormers will not be disheartencd by
this defeat. They will simply work more earn
estly than ever, and another general election
will find us nearer the goal than ever.
One cause of our defeat this year lack

GARNETT, KANSAS, NOVEMBER H. 1898.

Sue in 1900. Anything like successful fusion
between the Democrats and Popullsts will
hereafter be impossible. The entire tendency
OF the independent voters is to return to the
old party allegiance, with permanent gains to
the Republican party from the best element Of
the Democracy and Populists. The result is
largely due to the prosperous conditions of ag-
Ticulture and business generally. The people
are satisfied with present conditions. In Ne
braska the fusonsts early i'll the campaign
practically abandoned the free silver issue and
for a time attempted to maintain themselves
by criticisms Of the conduct OF the war. Driven
from them they fell back on all attack upon the
McCeary BILL" But now it turns out that the
Populists have elected the state ticket and
everything else. Will Senator Thurston kind
ly tell us what it means now?

An Autumn Leaf,

One crimson autumn leaf, from distant forest
grand,
The winds, in sportive mood, city pave
inent laid;
A weeping babe drew near, and caught with
eager hand
The gaudy, glowing leaf, and then lightly
laughed and played
III unaoyed delight; while passing to and fro
The people smiled to see this tiny child of
grief
Forlorn and hungry still, forget its present woe,
And gather peace and joy from one stray
autumn leaf.

Conduct Of War.

Conduct of War.
The great victory of the
American naval forces over the
Spaniards at Manila is justiti-
cation of the publicly of the ad
ministration in the conduct of
the war up to the present time.
Every thing has been moving in
the right direction and that de-
spite the hysterical criticism of
those who have contended
that the administration
should pursue some other policy
than the one which it has chosen.
Having destroyed the Spanish
fleet in Asiatic waters, the
American forces can take pos
session of Manila whenever it
suits their convenience to do so,
if they have not already executed
that purpose. Likewise, when
Spain's Atlantic fleet shall be
rendered harmless. the taking of
Havana will follow as a natural
consequence. Those hysterical
journals and individuals that
have been demanding the i'm
mediate ombardment of Havana
have manifested little knowledge
of naval strategy. They seem to
be animated by no more intel
ligent impulse than the childish
desire to have the guns go off.
Havana can be taken at any
time when it is needed. In a
naval contest, however the chief
object of at tack must must be
the enemy's fleet. When tho
Spanish navy shall be rendered
armless, therefore, the war will
be over, so far as any effective
resistance on the part of Spain
is concerned. Acting Admiral
Dewey went to Manila not
primarily to seize territory, but
for the purpose of engaging the
enemy's feet. Being successful
in this purpose and in the con.
tlict that followed, possession of
Spanish territory in Asiatic
waters, the great and primary
aim of American forces must be
the destruction of the Spanish
feet It is for that reason that
an early naval engagement is
greatly to be desired. The de-
struction of Spain's Asiatic fleet
means the ending of the war.
The bombardment of Havana and
the taking of Cuba mean nothing
so long as Spain has afloat war
vessels sufficiently strong and
numerous to be in any degree a
menace to the American navy or
the American sea coast cities.
It is for this reason, doubtless.
that the administration has
shown no haste to bombarding
Havana, a course which The
Record has approved from the
outset. The policy of the admin
istration in the conduct of the
war has been the one best calcu-
lated to bring success and glory
to American arms.-Chicago
