Notes and Opinions.

in the Democratic column. Aguinaldo is
welcome to all the encouragement he can

The great victory of Tuesday was of the
policy of expansion of the Administration;
the great defeat was of the humbug and
reactionary spirit of "anti-imperialism. !"
~. Y. San.
The Republicans achieved another great
victory throughout the United States on
Tuesday. The administration of Presi-

of the Republican party have received an
overwhelming endorsement. Bryan, Agui-
naldo, ct al, are, of course, detected, but

government is in safe hands.

money candidates and through the aid of

reason to doubt that the Democrats
would have met with defeat For an off
year the elections are, on the whole, re-
assuring to the national administration.
